HT5622 How can i update my apps when someone elses Apple id is requested?

How can I update my apps when someone elses Apple ID is requested and the person no longer has their iphone or remembers their password?

If someone else's Apple ID comes up when trying to update an app it means that that app was downloaded or purchased under that Apple ID and not yours. Apps are always associated with the ID used to download or purchase them the first time.
To avoid this from happening in the future delete that apps purchased under the other ID and download or purchase them with your ID.

  • How can I update my apps when it says that my billing information is wrong when there is nothing wrong with it?

    I cannot update my apps on my iPod. Apparently there is something wrong with my billing information and I retype it in every time it asks. There is nothing wrong with my account and I restored my iPod in hope of being able to update and download apps again but it still won't let me! What do I do?

    You might have to put the password in again.

  • I changed my apple ID on my iPhone and I have many updates for my apps.  It keeps coming up with my old apple ID and I've tried entering my old password and it won't work.  How can I update my apps with my new apple ID?

    I've tried syncing with my computer.  I've tried almost everything but when i go to update my apps it tells me to give a password for my old aplle ID and won't even take the old password. Help!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    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")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another 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.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

  • How can I update my app using my own ac?

    can I know if I can update my app from the other ac ?cause when I downloaded the app I used my friend ID  but now I can't contact him .so how can I update the app using my own ac?

    You can't, all content is tied to the account that bought/downloaded it, so only that account will be able to download updates to its apps.

    I am unable to update my App  store Updations. the reason being billing problem asking to update payment method.Many a  times i updated my credit card details but refusing from the system .how can i update my app store updations like  Face book etc....Using ! phone 6plus  .IOS8.3

    What do you mean by 'refusing from the system', if you are getting an error message then what does it say ?
    For a credit card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are. If it is and if you are getting a 'declined' message then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes Support (these are user-to-user forums) and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    If when trying to download you are getting a message about a 'problem with a previous purchase' then that implies that iTunes wasn't able to collect the money for your last purchase. If that is the case then you won't be able to download anything else (including app updates) until you've paid off what you owe : Pay an unpaid balance in the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    If you aren't getting the 'problem with a previous purchase' message then try logging into your account (not when trying to download something) and see if you get the 'none' option so that you can remove the card's details and be able to download updates to your apps : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support

    how can i update my app with i tunes?not by my device.

    Select Apps in iTunes sidebar. A list of all your apps should be displayed in the main window. At bottom right of the window is a Check for updates button. Click on it, then click to download the updated apps. It's also possible that iTunes checked for updatedin the background, in which case the check button will already display how many updates you have.

  • How can I update my App Store payment details

    How can I update my App Store payment details

    On your iPad you can tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should give you a payments link on your account's page. Or you can do it via your computer's iTunes by logging into your account by going into the Store > View Account menu option, and on your account's details page there should also be a payment link.

    With iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC. You should then be able to sleect the Apps section of your library on that left-hand sidebar, click the 'Check For Updates' button at the bottom of it and download any available updates. Then connect your phone and select it on the sidebar, select its Apps tab on the right-hand side of iTunes, and click the Sync button at the bottom of it - that should copy any app updates over to it

  • Reset my apple ID but old one still shows on screen.  How can I update my apps now?

    I reset my apple ID and password but old one still shows on screen.  How can I update my apps now?

    Hi jbrunner,
    Did you create a new Apple ID, or simply update the old one?
    If you simply updated the old one, then you need to go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, click on the Apple ID, and sign out. Then sign back in with your new ID. Also, you want to go to Settings>iCloud and scroll down to the bottom and delete the iCloud account and sign back onto it with your new Apple ID as well.
    If you created a new Apple ID, then there are other considerations. Post back if that is the case.
    Cheers,

    i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?

    You have to delete the old account, provide the password for the ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).
