HT204053 Old apple ID is keeping me from downloading

I changed my apple ID and the old one is keeping me from downloading things from the App Store on my phone. What can I do?

Hi pressage,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If you changed your Apple ID, you will need to sign out of the iTunes Store and sign back in with your new Apple ID and password.

    Settings > iTunes & App stores.
    Tap your Apple ID, sign out then sign back in with new AppleID.
    Settings > Facetime.
    Tap your Apple ID, sign out then sign back in with new AppleID.
    Settings > Messages.
    Turn off iMessages, wait 10 seconds, then turn it back on.  Go to 'Receive messages at' and then tap your Apple ID.  Sign out of the old ID, then sign in with new Apple ID.

    Also, delete any apps that were downloaded with the 'old' Apple ID, then reinstall them with your 'new' ID.

    How do I turn off password protection for apps on my Iphone4 and keep them from loading on all other devices?

    What do you mean by "password protection for apps"?
    To keep apps from downloading on a device automatically, go to Settings> Store> and turn off the things you don't want downloaded automatically.

  • Has anyone ran into the problem of having an old apple id and now can't download any past purchases

  • HT204053 Old apple ID reappears after every update. HELP ME

    So I just update my Iphone 4S and it seems that everytime I update it goes back to my old email Apple ID and keeps asking me for the password. I deleted the email almost a year ago so when  put it in it says its invalid. How can I put the new ID in again? This is the third time its done this and every time I just delete account it takes all my contacts with it. This is aggrivating,

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current 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.

  • HT204053 Old Apple ID used with new iPhone OS, how to sync and use new Apple ID?

    My iCloud account on my iPhone is my old Apple ID. My MacBookPro and iTunes are with the new Apple ID. I updated my iPhone with the new operating system and my iCloud account was with my old Apple ID and wouldn't accept the Apple ID or password so I had to skip the step where it synced my FaceTime, iMessage and iCloud. How can I change my Apple ID on my phone so it reflects my Apple ID on all my other devices?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

  • Old Apple ID name keeps popping up

    I changed the primary e-mail for my son's Apple ID and can sign in to all the apps and iCloud and Internet Accounts using the new address.  However, when I shut down & restart the computer it reverts to a screen as if I'm setting up my ID for the first time when I log into his account.  However, I keep getting pop up screens with the OLD e-mail address for the same ID from Facetime, iMessaging and iCloud to enter my password.  I then go into those applications and the old e-mail has reappeared.  I have no idea where it is coming from.  I tried deleting the iCloud accounts in the user library.  I tried deleting the keychains.  Nothing works.  It seems like it is possessed.

    Go to Settings/iCloud. Is the email address on that page yours? If it is not see frazzm737's post.
    Did you remove all of the apps from the phone when you started using it? If you did not then the apps are all tied to the previous owner's iTunes account. That message means that you got an update for an app, and the previous owner's ID is needed to install it.

  • Cannot delete old apple device software update file from trash

    I restored a new iPad from an old one and now there is an .ipsw file with the is08 8.0.2 update and I cannot delete it even tried command secure delete and option secure delete. The file is grayed out and says it is in use by another application. Please help me get rid of this.
    Oh and not sure this is related but I cannot sync my iPad now, it says error 1723.
    Thanks.

    Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from the following page (use one of the links under the thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    To install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • How do I get songs from my old Ipod onto my Iphone? I have a new apple ID for my phone... Do I need to use my old apple ID to get songs from my Ipod to my Iphone?

    I need help getting songs from my Ipod to my Iphone. I have a different Apple ID on my ipod... I am not sure of that Apple ID. How do I figure that out? How do I get my songs to all be on my Iphone.
    I do not want to repay for songs I have already.

    Are the songs on a computer? Right mouse click on a song and on the summary page it will tell you what AppleID was used to purchase it.
    If you are going to carry on using the same computer then just plug in the iPhone and sync the information there. So you will have a copy on your iPhone and maybe different stuff on your ipod.

  • My 3G has an old Apple ID which is different from my Macbook Apple ID. I NEED TO GET THEM SYNCHED SO THAT I can download apps on my iPhone.

    How can I synch my Apple ID with my Macbook and my iPhone 3G?

    You can log out of your account on your phone by tapping on it in Settings > Store, and you can then log in with a different account
    Any content that you download from the store is tied to the account that downloaded it, so if they are different accounts (e.g. if the id on your phone is not a previous version of the account that you are logged into on your Mac) then any apps etc that were downloaded on your phone by the currently logged in account will remain tied to that account, so only that account will be able to download updates to those apps.

  • Why does Apple need to keep me from connecting my Iphone on my home computer and my work computer?

    I travel alot for work and the fact that I can't dock my Iphone until I get home or that I have to email work pictures to my self from home to work because Apple can't trust people with their own content is really, really annoying.
    What are you doing Apple? Are you trying to upset your clientel? Is it too hard for you to believe that I have a home computer and a laptop? Of which, you sell all of the the above, but if they were to be able to interact with each........no, no, that would just make too much sense.

  • Firefox 32.0.2 doesn't connect to the 'Net properly. I re-install an old version, but it keeps trying to download FF Ver 32.0.2. How do I make it stop that?

    This is on a Windows 7 platform.
    I'd just like to turn updates off, until the next (updated) version of Firefox is released. Right now, I can't connect to any websites any time the Version 32.0.2 installs. I can still re-run the Firefox Version 32.0 installer, and it makes accessing the web possible. But then, Version 32.0.2 automatically tries to update my browser, which I really don't need if it doesn't function properly.

    hello, normally such issues are caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions. please remove all program rules for firefox from your firewall and let it detect the new version of the browser again.

  • HT1848 how do i keep APPS from downloading automatically on my macbook pro

    I know this is itunes 101, but I still don't know how to get all my music/movies on the cloud or thru internet without getting all the apps my kids download all the time -help! I havw a MacBook Pro.

    If they are downloading from the store as opposed to copying over from devices when they are synced, then go into iTunes > Preferences (command-comma) and on the Store tab on that make sure that Apps (under the 'automatic downloads' heading) is 'off'
