HT4528 When App Icon asks me to upgrade app, someone elses user I.D. email address is displayed and not mine. Cannot upgrade. How can i change this?

Email address not mine (user name) when i try to enter password to upgrade app on iphone 5. How do i edit user name?

Go to Settings, iTunes & App Stores, click on the Apple ID. Sign out. Click again and sign in with your Apple ID.
Is it possible that this someone in your contact list had the phone and downloaded an app for you?

    This never happened before, however the last couple of months it comes up every time I plug my USB from PC to iphone.

    HyperNova Software,
    Thank you so much.  Because I am very computer illiterate, could you help me on how to get started?  I don't have the slightest on where to get started, the steps to follow, etc.
    Can't thank you enough for your help!

  • Firefox puts cursor at the end of a textarea, not at the beginning, how can I change this (serious usability nightmare when working with a wiki)?

    When I edit my DokuWiki a lot of text is displayed in the textarea. Until Firefox 4 the cursor was always at the beginning of the textarea, which made it easy to scroll down to the part I needed to edit. Now the cursor is always at the end. This is a serious usability nightmare for me. How can I change it that the cursor is at the beginning of the textarea text?

    Hello cor-el,
    thanks for your answer but unfortunately, this isn't it. I can toggle bidirectional text and the whole text is changed so that it aligns on the right side. But the problem I have is that the text is still aligns on the left side, editing is left-to-right, it's just the cursor that's at the end of the text.
    Best regards & thank you

  • When i size down my logo in XSPLIT BROADCAST it looks not as good, not smooth at all. how can i change this

    it does not look smooth , im not sure what to say but the circle looks like square tiny blocks making a circle. how can this be made to look perfect as it originally is

    i make it via ai so its a vector and exported to Photoshop so that i can save it as small image rather than massive white page with logo on it, as you cant re size document on AI but if you re size it or lower size it you still get bits of pixelation or blurriness more of this when you downsize. so why is this?

  • When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?

    When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
    All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
    I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
    Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

    Anyone?

    Was that other apple id used to purchase/download the app? If yes you will need to use that apple id and password to update the app. http://support.apple.com/kb/he37

    If you need a GUI to change the owner of a file or files, try BatChMod
    Download BatChmod 1.51
    Works on 10.5 and 10.6
    http://www.macchampion.com/arbysoft/BatchMod/Download.html
    Here are similar teminal commands:
    Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal
    #Your current user is:
    echo $USER
    #Let's assume myuser
    #Or, you can use the id command.
    id
    #Remember, this will be the correct userid.  You need to find the bad userid.
    #You need to look on one of your bad files. To find out your UID and GID do:
    cd ~
    ls -ln
    ls -l
    ls -ln filename-of-bad-file
    Now, compare the output and write down what you find.
    You best use the numeric value of the old userid. In this case it is 501.  Before you do a command that will change files,  you should  list all  the files to be changed.   From an administrator  account, enter the following command:
    sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec ls -l {} \;
    # the system will ask for your log on password.  Type it in.  The letters will not appear on the screen.  Then, press the enter key.
    # adding a -x before the / limits the search to the current file system which will be your startup partition.
    # To stop the display press control-c ( hold down the control key then press c )
    mac $ sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec ls -l {} \;
    -rwxr-xr-x   1 na  unknown  0 Oct 23  2001 /Applications/AppleWorks 6/AppleWorks 6.app/AppleWorks 6
    -rwxr-xr-x   1 na  unknown  0 Oct 23  2001 /Applications/AppleWorks 6/AppleWorks 6.app/Contents/MacOS/AppleWorks Essentials
    -rwxr-xr-x   1 na  unknown  0 Oct 23  2001 /Applications/AppleWorks 6/AppleWorks 6.app/Contents/MacOS/Clippings
    -rwxr-xr-x   1 na  unknown  0 Oct 23  2001 /Applications/AppleWorks 6/AppleWorks
    ^C
    This command will change the ownership of a file.
    Any file or folder with a userid of 501 is changed to 1000.  Your numbers will differ.
    sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec chown 1000  {} \;
    #And you need to do this from an administrator id.
    More examples:
    sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec chown 5464 {} \;
    sudo find -x / -group 20 -exec chgrp 211 {} \;
    #combined change of uid & gid
    sudo find -x / -user 501 -exec chown 5464:211 {} \;
    Hope this helps a little.

    The only way that I know currently know of to remove old or incorrect email addresses from the Mail app is to reset the iPad back to factory defaults, which I assume that you don't want to to. You could try leaving feedback for Apple and maybe one day we'll day be able to edit them : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html#ipad
