HT201303 How to change apple ID to update old apps

Ive changed my apple ID and I can download new apps but cannot update old ones without my old apple ID returning to log into, how do I change this?

Hello,
You can't change that or merge two Apple ID. If you need to download the old apps you purchased you have to log out and log in with your old Apple ID.

  • How to change apple Id for updating

    My daughter has already signed into the app store on a different user on my mac . When I go to download or update apps on my user, I cannot do this because her apple ID has saved to the app store for the whole computer. As I  do not know her password, I am unable to update/download apps. I also cannot change the email address when doing this
    Please can someone help me remove her apple ID so that I can put mine in?
    Thank-you

    It is not whether it is straight forward or possible, it is that this is the security system in place to prevent both piracy of software and hacking of accounts.
    Whose computer is it? Who set it up? Whose account has Administration privileges on this Mac? The Mac, OS X, the pre-installed software can only belong to one person, regardless of how many of you have user accounts on the Mac. It is only this one user who can update the software.

  • HT201303 How to change Apple ID security questions

    I received and email saying my Apple ID security questions/answers had changed.  I immediately changed my Apple ID password... and again the next day had to change it again because it would not work when trying to update apps on my Iphone.
    So here is the problem... I see no place to change my security questions/answers on any of the webpages and contacting Apple support from my current location is impossible outside of email/webpages.  And there in lies the problem with Apple support... online/email support is non-existent.  But enough of my complaining about that.
    Does anyone know how to go about changing Apple ID security questions/answers?
    Thank you.

    Please go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/.
    Sign in when prompted then click on password and security on the left. If you'll answer the questions correctly, you'll see the questions and other infos on the page.
    One more thing, I don't think we can give our own questions like before. You can contact support for more info.

  • How to change apple ID for updating applications?

    When i first bought my iphone a friend put his apple ID so he could show me how to download apps.
    Although now i have my own ID and download apps with this one - every time i try to update some apps his email address pops up for which I do not have the password to. Is there a way to remove his ID from my phone completely and update my apps with my own ID? Any kind of help would be great on this

    Noble Seven, I actually did that deleted everything and then downloaded them again but for some reason it still does the same thing when i try to update them.
    I've noticed that the other email pops up even on the apps that i downloaded with my own ID...
    Thank you for trying to help guys

  • Changing apple ID to update from Apps Store.

    Trying to update my apps from App Store.  When asked to sign in, another  apple ID comes up (ID belongs to a person who borrowed my Mac).  It is greyed out and will not let me change it.  How do I change it? 

    The app that this person's Apple ID appears for is their app. You cannot update their app with your Apple ID. Having their app on your Mac is software piracy. Delete the app and buy it with your own Apple ID.

  • How to change apple ID to update email address

    I have recently gotten an new email address and my old email which I had registered my phone under Apple is no longer current.
    I have tried to upgrade to IOS7.0.6 and in order to finish the upgrade, I need to change my email address so I can add the correct user ID/Password.
    The AppleID on my phone is grayed out so I cannot re-enter it or change it.  I only have the option to change my password.
    I have updated my email and password online.

    Hello Angie2872
    See if you can skip that step and then sign out of anything that associated with the old Apple ID and then sign in with your updated Apple iD. Check out the article below for more information.

  • HT201303 how to change apple store payment country

    hi i want to change payment details and country

    You can't, Apple stores won't exchange them (and you can't use an Apple Store gift card to buy iTunes gift cards). Do you know anybody that you could sell the card to ? Or you could try selling it online e.g. eBay etc.

  • How to deauthorize apple id in itunes and apps on ipod

    how to change apple id in itunes and apps?i can't update apps

    - Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • Can i change apple id to update a game? if its possible how i can change it? if its not possible why in this generation why its not possible?

    can i change apple id to update a game? if its possible how i can change it? if its not possible why in this generation why its not possible?

    You can't. All apps, and any other content from the store, are tied to the account that downloaded them, and they will remain tied to that account - so only the account that bought/downloaded an app can download updates to an app. Are you having problems downloading an app update via the app's own account ?

    <Email Edited By Host>

    Settings > iTunes and App Stores > tap on the Apple ID that is displayed then sign out.
    Then sign in with the apple ID you want to use.
    Keep in mind all purchased items will remain associated with the Apple ID that was used to purchase them. If you are not signed in to that Apple ID when trying to update an app you will be asked for that Apple ID and password.

  • How to change apple id on iPhone. Wife and I have same apple ID.  Get each others iMessages. want to put her on another cloud with different id.

    How to change apple id on iPhone? Wife and I have same apple ID which causes me to get her iMessages instead of her. I also get all her pics on my phone and I don't want them.  We need to change her apple ID without causing my ID and cloud to be closed.

    Have her create a new ID.   Here:  https://appleid.apple.com/
    Have her log out of iMessage/Facetime/iCloud on her device.   Now have her use the new ID she has created.
    That should keep the 2 of you separated, except for iTunes purchases.   You can share that ID in a family up to 5 devices.
