HT1311 Email associated with an App on my iphone

When i try to update an app on my iphone, it ask for the wrong email address to put in my password to update.Em

Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID with which they were purchased.
Did you change Apple IDs at some point?
You will have to re-purchase the app with your current Apple ID or continue to put in the old email and password to update the existing copy.

  • Wary about upgrading my wife's 3gs from ios4 to ios6. will the data associated with an app be lost or will it be restored from the backup after the upgrade completes. There is no way to export, email or even print the data contained in the app

    wary about upgrading my wife's 3gs from ios4 to ios6. will the data associated with an app be lost or will it be restored from the backup after the upgrade completes. There is no way to export, email or even print the data contained in the app so I am concerned

    If the backup and restore takes place properly, you shouldn't have any issue as millions of people have done an update from iOS 4.

  • I have multiple emails associated with my i phone, but can't get my mac to associate some of the email names because it is associated with other apple id , but it's my id. how can i get around this?

    - Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
    Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
    - For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
    - Instead, try restoring from backup.

  • I have some apps on my iPad that were installed using an old apple ID. They can't be updated because the old ID is no longer valid. How can I change the apple ID associated with these apps?

    I installed some apps using an apple I'd that is no longer active. I can't update them because it asks for the password of the old I'd instead of the I'd I currently use. How can I change the apple I'd associated with these apps? I still want to use them. One app I paid for using the old I'd. The other app is free. I have already tried deleting them and reinstalling them.

    If you simply just changed the email associated with that appleid you can just delete and Re-download the apps.
    You can verify  the above step by going to the App Store on device > Updates>Purchased - if you see the app there just delete it from the home screen and redownload from the purchased section
    Now if you got rid of that account entirely, you will have to delete and re-purchase on your new account

  • How can I change the email associated with my forum account?

    How can I change the email associated with my forum account?  I didn't provide my work email to you, but you put it in my account.  My forum postings have nothing to do with my personal PC at home.  There isn't an option to update it.

    Hi:
    Log in and click on your user name, then look at the upper the right side of the page.
    Click on the triangle to the left of the "More Resources" section.
    This will drop down, and give you options.
    Select User Settings.
    This will now open a page, and in the light blue type on top, follow it along to Contact Information, click on that, and change your e-mail address to what you want, and hit the blue submit button on the bottom right side of the page.

  • I can't seem to sync my calendar on my iphone to iCal because the default email address associated with my calendar on my iphone was to an old work email address that I no longer have.

    I can't seem to sync my calendar on my iphone to iCal because the default email address associated with my calendar on my iphone was to an old work email address that I no longer have. When I go to ICal it asks for the username and password which I no longer have. The calendar is still on my phone (even though the email account is on my phone but doesn't work) Is there a way to copy my calendar to a different email address on my iphone? I have now set the default email account for the calendar to a current email address but I still can't figure out how to merge my iphone calendars, copy the iphone calendar to iCal, or save my iphone calendar to my mac. Also, I read in ITunes to check "sync to ICal" but my  ITunes under my iphone and info just says "Sync Calendars" which doesn't transfer it to iCal when I sync my phone.

  • I'm trying to get access to a very old AppleID, but I don't have access to the email associated with the account anymore and it's saying my birthday is wrong.  Can someone help?!

    I'm trying to get access to a very old AppleID, but I don't have access to the email associated with the account anymore and it's saying my birthday is wrong.  Can someone help?!

    If you can't get the account's password reset via http://appleid.aple.com then try contacting Support in your country, they should (after they've confirmed your id and that it's your account) be able to reset it for you.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5699
    If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    After it's been reset change the primary email address on the account to be an address that you have access to : Change your Apple ID.
    And check/correct the date of birth on the account (select the Password And Security section on the account on http://appleid.apple.com, answer the security questions, and on the next screen the DoB should show).

  • My phone will not turn on and i forgot my apple id and the email associated with it. How can i still access my information?

    My iPhone will not turn on because of water damage. I am trying to access the cloud but i forgot my apple ID and i also forgot the email associated with it which was an @me.com address. I tried using the back-up emails that i have but it did not find my account. How can i get to my cloud?

    You cannot without the correct credentials.
    You can try here if the Apple ID is yours:

  • HT5312 My email associated with my iCloud ID has been deleted and my birthday is wrong in the system for the security question. Therefore, I can't delete my old iCloud ID in order to have my new ID on my phone.

    My email associated with my iCloud ID has been deleted and my birthday is wrong in the system for the security question. Therefore, I can't delete my old iCloud ID in order to have my new ID on my phone. HELP!

    If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go 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.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account 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 and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Why do I keep getting emails saying my iTunes account will be disable in 48 hours if I do not validate my account?  or that I have to verify the email associated with my iTune acccount?

    why do I keep getting emails saying my iTunes account will be disable in 48 hours if I do not validate my account?  or that I have to verify the email associated with my iTune acccount?

    Because someone's trying to mislead you into giving them your iTunes Store login information. Forward all such emails to [email protected] and then delete them.
    If there's an actual problem with your iTunes Store account, you'll be told at the time you try to purchase or download something.

  • Email associated with touch is no longer available

    I am trying to Transfer the Purchases made on my child's touch to the Itunes on the pc.
    I am asked for a password which I do not have/remember.  The email associated with it was disabled by yahoo due to hackers.
    How do I fix this?
    Everything I've looked at says that we will lose the items purchased directly on the Touch.
    Any help would be great!  Do I need to go to an Apple store?  I am in Seattle and that would be easy to do.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi LordValdez23,
    It sounds like you are talking about Activation Lock rather than the passcode to unlock the screen.

    Are you trying to change the Apple ID associated with your iCloud account?  If so, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

    If you are saying that after signing into iCloud it is telling you device is not found, it could be for any number of reasons. If the battery is dead, if the SIM has been removed, or if someone else has the phone and they have restored it, it will not be shown. Also, if you located it once and then sent a remote wipe, it disables the abililty to locate the phone with Find My iPhone.
