I buy apps in my iPhone using different Apple ID. Which Apple ID should I use to authorize the computer when sync iPhone with iTunes?

Hi again,
After a little further research, it appears that you would need to create separate iTunes libraries in order to be able to continue to purchase and download previously purchased items on the same computer, for two different Apple IDs. Sorry - but my husband and I have had the library we sync with authorized for so long, that we have not run into this issue, but it appears that you will get an warning when you try to authorize the second ID on the same computer, indicating that another ID is already associated with it.
So, you will probably have to set up separate iTunes libraries for each ID:

Sorry for any confusion - hope this helps!

  • Can I transfer all my apps and things wich are on my iPad 2 to a new computer by synchronizing it with iTunes?

    Hi! I have an iPad 2 since october or so, and i've been synchronizing it with my desktop computer. Now I've just bought a laptop, and i'd like to now if it is posible to synchronize it with my iPad, and transfer all my apps, photos, music, and videos wich are on my iPad.
    I already know that you can't synchronize an iPad with two computers, but  I don't know if I can transfer all my apps, music, photos, and videos to a new computer by synchronizing it with the iPad.
    Thank you

    These are two possible approaches that should work to move the existing library to the new laptop.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase are reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where your desktop has died with no backup then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

    i have two iphone one is iphone 5 and othere is iphone 4 . can i use same id for both ? And do i have to purchase the application again for iphone 4 which i have buyed for iphone 5.??

    You can use the same Apple ID for both phones, you would then be able to use the purchased Apps/Content on both phones without having to pay again.

  • TS2446 Fuc!!!!!!!!  Yahoo disabled my Yahoo email address as there had been a breach is security. So I could no longer buy apps or update. I created a whole new Apple ID. But my iPhone still comes up with the old email address and I can't seem to get rid

    I'm ready to stop using itunes the ID change of email address is killing me! Help

    Well, your first mistake was making a new Apple ID. You only needed to go into Manage your Apple ID and change the Apple ID from the Yahoo email to your new email. Then, all the purchases you made with that old Apple ID would still be tied to your updated Apple ID.
    As it is, you now have a totally new Apple ID, but the purchases you made with that old Apple ID are still (and will forever be) tied to it.
    Your best bet is to log into Manage your Apple ID with the old ID (regardless of what Yahoo did with it, it is still a functional Apple ID, unless you had that disable for security reasons). Once you have logged into it, change the password on it to match the password on your new ID. Then when you are asked for a password to update an app, it won't matter which of the two Apple IDs is displaying. You will just type in the same password and your app will be updated.

  • All that I have read indicates I should be able to upgrade the IOS  of a Iphone 3gs from ver 4.2.1 to 4.3 or 5.0 at the least. Most apps have been upgraded to 4.3 minimum. All unavailable to me using ver 4.2.1. How can I upgrade to 4.3  or are there probs

    Why cannot the Iphone 3gs be upgraded from ios 4.2.1 to 4.3 or 5.0

    Perhaps yours is an iPhone 3G and not a 3Gs...

  • I have an apple id which I have been happily using to purchase from iTunes and it appears on iPad and iPhone. Now I have done something wrong in iCloud and my mobile me Id comes up on iPhone and iPad so I can no longer purchase. What should I do.

    I have an apple id which I have been happily using to purchase from iTunes and it appears magically on iPad and iPhone, MacBook and partner's iPod touch. Now I have done something wrong in iCloud and my mobile me Id comes up on iPhone and iPad so I can no longer purchase using this and i can't find a way to reset  What should I do? I want to be able to buy apps from iPhone and iPad from this same account and  still synch with my mac book and share with my partner's iPod touch.
    Any suggestions?

    We are users, not Apple. We cannot trace your phone, and neither can Apple.
    Please change every password you have. Posting your email addresses and Apple IDs on a public forum is insane. Hopefully a Mod will edit them out for you.

    Apps and music are forever tied to the Apple ID under which they were purchased.  If you don't want to continue to get that message, delete the apps and purchase them again with your new Apple ID.

    Dear Sirs,when i use the computer updating my iphone to ios 7.1,suddenly black out.The computer has no power and my iphone does not work and keep display the screen saying the iphone need to connect to itunes. So when i connect my iphone to iTunes, the computer says"itunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode. you must restore this iphone before it can be used with itunes"
    So my question is if I click OK(restore the iphone),will i lose all my data and whatsapp??
    Thank you for your help and time.

    If you didn't back up the phone to iCloud or iTunes (on your computer) BEFORE attempting the update, the data will be lost.

  • HT4839 Which apn setting should I use for my iphone 4 on net10

    Which apn setting should I use for iphone 4 on net10

    APN Settings for Net 10
    Cellular Data
    APN: att.mvno
    Username: (Blank)
    Password:(Blank)
    MMS (Blank)
    APN: att.mvno

    Type exactly whats on here on your settings.
    Procedure:
    1- Turn on your phone
    2- Get paperclip take out tray and put your non working sim card in- T-moble and simple mobile sim cards work great for me on this venture.
    3. Goto Settings>General>Cellular>Cellular Network
    At this point its very critical that you do this fast, Once you change the sim card to your net 10 the option Cellular Network will only stay on for a few seconds while it's searching for service. You will need to click on cellular once the Net10 sim card is in and click on Cellular network again.
    4. Get your paperclip take out the tray put in the Net 10 sim card
    5. Goto Cellular>Cellular Network while it's searching for service
    6. Type in your settings that I list above
    7. Scroll back to your main setting (Do not press your Home Button)
    8. Once you see your service up and running try out your web and send a picture message it should work.
    9. If it does'nt work you mistype one of the settings, it has to be exact or it wont work.
    10. Do the process all over again
    Keep this information and the sim card away for a later date in case you lose your setting I have'nt turned off my phone or let my battery die to find out if I lose my settings. One thing for sure I lost it when I update to the IOS 6.0.1.

  • What is the BEST way to delete an app on an iPhone 4S so it will NOT be added back when I sync with iTunes?

    What is the BEST way to delete an app on an iPhone 4S so it will NOT be added back when I sync with iTunes?

    To completely remove an app and all of its data, do this: First delete the app on your phone, then in iTunes, under Library, click on Apps, right-click the app you want to delete & select delete, when prompted, move all files to trash, empty your trash. Connect your phone and sync. The app and all of its data will be gone.

  • Which HttpClient class should I use for Universal apps?

    Hi,
    I am developing a Windows Universal app for Windows phone and WinRT in C# and I would like to know which HttpClient class should i use? Should I use the System.Net.HttpClient or Windows.Web.HttpClient?

    Because the System.Net.Http and System.Net.Http.Headers namespaces might not be available in future versions of Windows for use by Windows Store apps. It is stated in the official documentation on MSDN here:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/dn469431.aspx
    "Starting with Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2, use Windows.Web.Http.HttpClient in the Windows.Web.Http namespace and the related Windows.Web.Http.Headers and Windows.Web.Http.Filters namespaces instead for Windows Store apps."
    And the Windows.Web.Http.HttpClient class is supported from Windows Phone 8.1, Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/windows.web.http.httpclient.aspx

  • My iphone doesnt have app store or itunes on it, and when i plug it in to the computer it doesnt appear on itunes

    hey everyone i bought an iphone 4 and it doesnt have itunes or app store on it, and when i plug it into the computer it doesnt appear on itunes plz help!!!

    Are you sure this is a real iPhone 4? People in my area are trying to pass off knock off versions of the iPhone, as the real thing.
    If its the real thing, then Reset your iPhone, then try again.

    However, the most likely reason is your self-repair of a device that is only factory repairable broke something. Note that Apple does not sell replacement parts, so whatever parts you used were not made by Apple's supplier and are of questionable quality.

    And maybe you don't talk to too many people but I've been on many forums on different websites where people have had similar problems and a lot of people in the store were having battery problems where they were draining too fast. What I learned is that all the people who did not download the updates are good. There phone is working the same. The people who have, they're having battery problems
    I have downloaded every update and my battery life is better than any previous iPhone I have ever owned. I see posts from hundreds of people every day, and this is not a commonly reported problem. While there are a few random reports of battery problems, it is no more than I have seen for any other model or any other version of iOS in almost 8 years. Usually problems of rapid battery drain can be traced to bad apps (FaceBook is the worst offender) or corrupt data being synced from iCloud or other sources (gmail, Windows Live, Yahoo, etc).
    The simple test is to restore the phone as New. Do not create any email accounts. Do not install any apps. Do not enable FaceTime or iMessage. Do not enable Twitter or any other social networking app. Use it for a day and check the battery usage. You will find that it is working well.
    And also see this: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain. It is the best treatise I have seen on the subject of battery usage.
