HT1918 My father has a new email address, whenever we try to sign into his apple account, it comes up with his old email address and asking for his password, I created a new account with his new email address, however I cannot download the eprint app.

My dad's email has changed, he cannot remember his password under his old itunes email account. Whenever he tries to download apps on his new iphone with his new email address, it is asking for his password for his "old email" account. We created a new itunes account with his new email address, but whenever we try to install an app, it keeps asking for his password and shows his old email address. What is the best way to solve this problem?

Hi Vivian Zollman,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I'm not sure if you are referring to your Apple ID or just your email account in the Mail app. So, I've included all of the articles that may be relevant for you.

If you already have an email account set up and you want to modify its settings, tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, tap the name of your account, and then your email address. Then tap any information you want to adjust.

I changed my Apple ID (other email address and password) and now I can not login to my account in the iPhone iCloud. When I open the tab iCloud displayed my old Apple ID (it was in the iCloud) and asks for a password, but neither the old nor the new password does not match. What to do?

If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information. Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

On my new iPhone, at the Apps store, I tried to make a purchase, the popup screen shows my Apple ID and asks for my password, but no keyboard appears so that I can enter the password. How do I get the keyboard to appear??

On your iPad, delete the existing account then sign back in with the new ID and password.

Tap on the id in Settings > Store and log out of it and then login with your id. Any content already on the iPad will be tied to the previous owner's id and it can't be copied or transferred to your id - so it's probably best to do restore the iPad back to factory defaults and start as from new with it : Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Contents And Settings

Hi. I recently got a new computer and transferred all my files across using TimeMachine. Whenever I try to sign into any CC program (including CC) the program instantly shuts down and an Apple error message comes up. I have uninstalled and reinstalled CC twice with no avail and deleted every Adobe product on my computer and nothing is working.

I have seen similar discussions before... transferring does not work, you must install

When I try to open an .ai/pdf file received through my email, it won't open and asks for a password. I have never set up any kind of password for email security, but have tried typing in my standard passwords. Nothing works. I wonder if it has anything to do with the use of my Wacom3 Tablet...I've been having trouble with it and was getting the same message when trying to open the User's Manual in my Applications/WacomTablet file on my hard drive. Any suggestions? I just downloaded the latest version for the Wacom and recently upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.7 (which I hate, and my CS3 hates, etc.)

It sounds like you have a a password-protected PDF. The password was set by the person who encoded it.

Did you buy this iPhone new from an authorized seller?

My wife and I have separate AppleID accounts and always have. For some reason after she bought the iPhone 5c, whenever she tries to update her apps, it comes up for my AppleID and asks for my password. Please help on how to fix this!

My wife and I have separate AppleID accounts. Ever since she updated to the iPhone 5c, for some reason when she tries to update her apps, it comes up with my AppleID and asks for my password. I cannot figure out why this happening and how to fix this. Please help!

I have had this issue lately.
I can only put it down to using the one computer to update all our IPads for me and my wife.
Some of our apps, although downloaded from both our seperate accounts on our IPads, are the same.
However after plugging her IPad into the computer when my AppleID is on ITunes, I think something strange has happened and when she then tries to update Apps on her IPad and I try on mine it now asks for the others Apple ID password.
The only way I have found to counteract this is to update an app one at a time, if that app asks for your wifes password then delete it and then reinstall it.
That has solved it for me.
Hope this helps

TS4268 iMessage doesn't work anymore suddenly. It claims that my apple id had changed, which isn't the case (App Download still working!) . Then it shows the correct Email-adress and asks for appleID password.

iMessage doesn't work anymore suddenly. It claims that my apple id had changed, which isn't the case (App Download still working!) . Then it shows the correct Email-adress and asks for appleID password. After entering it switches to a mask witch asks for the eMail adress that should be used. There is the right One already preentered. From there it switches back to the former mask (appleID +password) and nothing happens. If you say Log in again, ist just switches between those masks without showing an error claim nor logging in. Strange thing is ist worked proppperply till a few days ago.......

Hello there Noregret35,
I suggest this part of the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/#section_1
If you get to step 3 I recommend closing ALL the apps.
Here is step 1 to get you started.
Restart iPhone
To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If your device does not turn on or displays a red battery icon, try recharging next.
Regards,
Sterling

I am trying to install an app. When I click install, my old gmail account shows and asks for my password etc but I have a new gmail account that is associated with my apple id. How can I get it to default to the new gmail?

I am trying to install an app in my iphone. When I click Install, my old gmail account comes up for verification and it asks for my password etc. I dont use this account anymore and have a new gmail account that is associated with my apple account. How can I get the new gmail to default when I am trying to install apps?

Did you create a NEW Apple ID or did you change the email address for your OLD Apple ID? This will affect how you update apps in the future.
Anyway, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores, log out, then log in with the new ID.

I bought a new iPad and want to sync to my iCloud. We'll I updated my Apple ID and password as we'll. however it won't allow me to sign in to the cloud because it still brings up the old Apple ID and asks for a password.

I have purchased a new iPad. I am trying to sync my music and apps. I also updated my Apple ID and password. So when I go to sync my old Apple ID pops up asking for a password but I have already changed the info. So the new password does not work. How do I get the new iPad to recognize the the updated info so I can sign in to my iCloud account?

On your iPad, delete the existing account then sign back in with the new ID and password.

TS1398 I cannot join with a nearby Wi-Fi network. We have wi-fi in our apt. and our IBM laptop is connecting with no problem; but, when I try to use my iPod touch, the wi-fi is locked and asks for a password. I do not know it.

How do I join with the network that is in our apt? The iPod asks for a password and I do not have one. What to do?

You have to enter the correct password to connect.
Ask the person who setup the router for the password.
