settings - app/itune store - apple id - log out and log back in with your new id.
NOTE: apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase it.

After installing ios5 and having had to change my apple id to e-mail address I am unable to download updates as they were purchased under my previous id and it will not allow me to get back into the old id Help please.
Make sure you enter your new Id in settings/message, settings/facetime. ANy content that you downloaded with the old ID is forever linked to that old ID and if you have apps that were downloaded with the old ID and you want to update them you can only do that with the old ID. You could delete those apps and downlad them again ( and pay for them if they are not free apps)

I changed my Apple ID email address yesterday and now my IPhone 4 and my IPod 5 will not allow me to upload any apps. When it asks for my Apple Password it still shows my old email address. How do I change the IPhone and IPod to recognize the new email address????
Hello there, emsariel.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great information in regards to the issue you are describing:

I updated my Apple ID but my I Cloud account still has my old ID and I can not figure out how to update it
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")
When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again. -
I purchased a new computer but my phone still has my old computer in the sync through wi-fi how can I change this?
Thanks for posting this, I have same problem and was just about to ask same question. Any help gratefully received. I have tried to look for the answer on these forums but although I have found the question again there doesnt seem to have been a reply.
I have changed to a mac but on both my phone & my i pad it says will resume sync when (old)PC is available however when i sync both of them on my Mac it appears to do a sync but doesnt say so on i pad or i phone.
Thanks -
Hi, I am planning on buying an iphone 4 from some one. The phone still has the Apple Care Protection plan on it. Would there need to be a transfer of plan onto my name? If so, how is this done?
As the others have said, transferring AppleCare to your name is not absolutely essential. It can make things easier in some cases, though, should questions arise, so it's worth having done. The person from whom you're buying the iPhone will have to call AppleCare Plan Administration (s/he can call the normal Apple support line and ask to be transferred) and arrange to have the plan transferred to you.

My iphone 4s will not allow me to open applcations that I have downloaded. I have tried a few things but still will not allow me to open. Shows they are open once pushing the home button twice. Please help!
Pressing the Home button twice does not show you what apps are running. It shows you what apps were recently used.
Download a free app from the App Store. Once it downloads, your other apps should work properly again. -
I recently had to change my apple id. I have 2 Iphones on one of them the user id still comes up as my old email adress and i can't get it to chage to my new Id. What do I need to do? Synching has not worked.
Purchases are tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with for eternity... or until Apple provides a way to change the ID.
Regardless, if you want to change the Apple ID the device is logged in with, Settings > Store > Select ID > Sign Out. Then sign in with the new ID. -

I get a message telling me "Cannot connect to itunes store". It worked fine until last night. I've tried deleting all settings, and no change.
I downloaded a couple of apps on Tuesday with no issues, but then on Wednesday evening the error occured.
I have recently changed the email address that acts as my apple ID, but that was at the weekend and I had no issues until Wednesday.
I can however download podcasts through the podcast app.
Anyone have any suggestions? fixes?Yes, I had thought about the general reset thing, what implications will that have on data/email accounts etc ?
Reset All Settings won't hurt any of your data, just erase preferences.
From the iPhone User Guide: Reset all settings: Choose General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
When you setup the iPhone as a new device, it's like you just pulled the iPhone out of the box. All apps will have to be installed again and you'll have to recreate the data, unless the app pulls it from somewhere on the web. -
HT4623 My iPad will not allow me to download any apps
My iPad will not let me download any apps, also in the APPS STORE it shows a '1' meaning that there is one new update, it will not even let me update. Also when browsing some websites like BT, it shuts down and reverts back to the home page of all my APPS. Is this a hardware or software problem?
(A) Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset. -

I have the new iPad . I don't know how my sister's apple ID was set. I have all under my iTunes account but when i need to update my apps, a different apple ID come up! how do i change that?
Hi maggieanntb, your sister's Apple ID came up because an app(s) was downloaded using her account. To prevent that from happening, you would have to delete the app(s) that were downloaded on her's, and re-download them using your own Apple ID.
