How would u change your old apple ID to update apps

How would u change your old pop up apple Id to update apps

Apps are forever tied to the ID that was used to purchase them. You'll need to use the password to the old Apple ID to update them or delete them and buy them again under your new Apple ID.
This is why you don't change Apple IDs if at all possible. If your email changes, you can always update the Apple ID.

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished goThen go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

    Open System Preferences > iCloud, and turn off each service individually if you don't want to lose contacts, calendars, notes and reminders. If you don't want to be kept, just select Sign Out.
    Then, you will be able to log in with a new Apple ID, so do it and follow the steps

  • How can i change delete old Apple ID on my iphone, i dont know the password

    i change the Apple ID using my PC. My new Apple ID was verified both email and password. My Ipad air sync to the new Apple ID but my iphone wont sync. And everytime i try to change my Apple ID on my iphone it ask for password of the old Apple ID, but it keep saying incorrect ID and password. I cant delete or change because i dont know the password.

    You need to reset the password for the old Apple ID.

    FYI - all apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps. Not possible to merge or transfer apps downloaded with one Apple ID to another.
    This means in order to install an app update with an app that was downloaded with your old Apple ID, you will need to use that Apple ID and password.

  • HT5621 How do you change your "Alternate Apple ID"?

    How do I change my "Alternate Apple ID?

    If you were a migratee from MobileMe then you would have an @me.com and an  @icloud.com address with the same text before the '@' - they are effectively the same address and you can't change either.
    However you can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.
    More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

  • How do you change your user name associated with the app store on the iphone 3G. When attempting to update, it is using an old email address that has since been changed at the apple site. The problem is that my phone does not seem to recognize this.

    I have exausted my ideas, and turn to the forum, prior to paying for something that may be a 2second simple fix. Please help if you can. Let me know if you need more info to understand my dilema.
    Thanks.

    Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them.  You will always be asked for the password associated with this ID when updating apps, regardless of whether or not you are using this ID for current purchases.  The only way to stop this is to delete the old apps from your phone and iTunes and repurchase them with your current ID.
    Edit: to change the ID used for future purchases on your phone, go to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in using the new ID.  As explained above, you will still be prompted with the old ID when updating apps purchase with the older ID.

  • How do I change my old apple id email to my new one

    I lost/broke my iPhone and I needed to update my password on my apple ID, so after struggling I changed that.  I used that opportunity to also change my primary email to one I now use because I created that Apple ID years ago.  Because I didn't have my phone anymore, I had to change my ID on nearly every device I use (iPad, Mac). Now, I have a replacement iphone, however I can't get my icloud to work because it has the old Apple ID email.  It won't let me sign out of that account or even delete it.  I just want to sign into the icloud with my new email.  It won't let me sign out because I had find my iphone turned on.  How can I change the email on there, or delete that account, or anything regarding the icloud account?
    Please help, any feedback would make my life much less stressful.
    Thanks

  • I have an older generation of Ipod and I am trying to upload all my songs from my old Ipod to my new Itunes account. How can I change my old Apple ID to my new one so I can keep all my songs without having to buy or hunt for them all over again?

    Please help I am having the hardest time trying to get all my songs on to one account to make my life easier, but my Ipod is registered under an old apple account and I want to change it so all my old songs go onto my new apple ID. Any suggestions, please help?

    Sorry meffie, you cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another. Are the songs under the old ID all purchased via iTunes?
    If so, then sign onto the iTunes on the computer with your old ID and Authorize the computer for that Apple ID: Store on the top menu, then click on Authorize This Computer.
    Once it is Authorized, you can then go to the iTunes Store and under Quick Links on the right-hand side, click on Purchased. Then click on Music, Songs, Not In this Library, and you should be able to see all of your purchased music, which you can download to your iTunes library individually by clicking on the cloud next to the song, or you can click on Download All at the bottom of the screen to download all of the tunes.
    Cheers,

  • How can I change my old Apple ID? I have a new one created but can't deleted the old one it's gray and u can't tap on it?

    I'm able to use the new one even tho the old one is there? But can't delete the old one because it's frayed out n can't tap on it to change it to the new one

    You will need to use that old Apple ID and password to update any apps you purchased using that account. So you will either need to recover that Apple ID, which if you forgot the password you should be able to reset here:

    or you will need to delete all those apps and repurchase them using your current Apple ID.

  • How do I change my old apple ID to the new one/won't let me access

    I recently changed my apple ID. Everything I turn on my phone, it asks me to login into my apple ID but the old one keeps popping up instead of the new one. When I put in my passcode, it says that the ID or password is wrong...which is expected because my old apple ID still comes up...and it won't let me do anything on my iphone. I can't reset it, delete my account, or anything because the old apple ID still comes up. How can I change this. I have the iphone 4s by the way and it is updated to IOS 7, i don't know if that changes anything. Thanks.

    have you managed to resolve this problem as i have the same one?
