- 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.

  • 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)

    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.

  • 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 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.

    Not without deleting it and then downloading it from the new Apple ID.

    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).

  • Can't update iPhone apps with ios8

    I recently got a replacement iPhone 5s which came with ios8. Now I can't update my apps. In the app store I have several apps that are listed as having available downloads, but there's no option to update them. I can only click "open." Any ideas?

    You're not alone LC Boston. I have this too. Bought an iPhone6 two days ago, as an upgrade for my old iPhone4. Today I upgraded to iOS 8.1.2 (using iTunes). A few hours later, I saw there were two apps awaiting updates. In the Updates section of the App Store app, the two apps are listed as "Available updates" but the "Update All" option at the top of the screen is greyed out, and each app just has the "Open" box beside it, not the "Update" box. Hitting "Open" does open the app but when closed, it is still listed in the "Available updates" section and still shows "Open" as the only option.
    I Have tried everything I can think of to work around this. I deleted one app and reinstalled it from the App Store. That worked, of course, but it isn't how the update process ought to be working!
    I am not having this problem with my iPad Mini, which I also upgraded to 8.1.2 today. The issue for me is restricted to my new iPhone 6.
    Any further thoughts?

  • How can I update my IPAD with my new apple address so I can update my apps.

    my daughter went to prision, so I have her old IPAD which I bought her. She can't remember her passcode so I can't update the apps on it. I created a new apple ID for her, but how do I get it on the IPAD??

    You can tap on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log in with the new account.
    But any content that was purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.  You can try resetting the password for the old account by going to http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'

  • How can I update the apps. with the new iTune, that's really silly especially I have two iTune account for different countries

    I used 2 iPhones and a iPad, 2 Apple ID for different countries so that I can download apps. from different country.  Its a pain and sometimes no possible to update the apps. on the ISO devices.  Apple really needs to fix this aspect.  Also the new iTunes is so difficult to use, please bring back the old one.

    When Itunes opens
    1) Click on drop dow list button top left under the player controls
    2) Select Apps
    3) At the bottom right there are two buttons, Check for updates and Get More Apps
    An Alternative is when iTunes opens in the top menu Click on View, Show Sidebar. Then you will see your apps page as in itunes 10. Click on that option and as before you should have two buttons, Check for updates and Get More Apps.
    NB this is all within Itunes NOT the iTunes Store

  • My husband has been using my daughters apple if to log in to his ipad.  can i set him up with his own apple id for this ipad?  if so, how?

    my husband got an ipad.  he has been using my daughters apple id to log in to his ipad.  she has an ipod touch.  how do i make him his own apple id?

    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.
    If y do not want to use the common ID then:
    Note
    - 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.

  • HT4623 I am trying to update my apps with a new user ID - I have changed it in settings but how to I change it in apps store - it keeps asking me for a password for my old user id?

    I am trying to update my apps using a new user ID.  I have changed it and I can't get it to change in the App Store.  It keeps asking me for a password for my old ID??

    YOu can't update your apps with the new apple id.   All apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchased it, you will need to enter your password from you old id to update.

  • Update an app with DPS signing tool

    Hi Neil! can you help me?
    How can i update an app with signing tool?
    My app is in V.30, and i want make it in V.31! but i don't understand how i can make it
    Thanks
    Francesca

    The same certificate used to previously sign your current live app should also be used to sign the updated APK you are trying to send to Google play. Looks like you have used a different certificate this time which is why you are getting the error.
    You should look for the correct cert on your machine, must be lying out there somewhere. Else if you think you've lost/deleted the cert, there's no way the existing app can be updated. Instead your app has to be uploaded as a new app.
    Advise: Always backup your Android .p12 or .keystore certificates somewhere up in the cloud ;-)

  • My iphone 5 will not update my app under my new apple id  keeps showing old id

    my iphone 5 will not let me update my apps with my new apple id..

    That is because apps are locked to the Apple ID they are purchased with. You cannot associate them with a new Apple ID, nor merge them to another account. If you cannot update with the old ID, then you will need to delete the app and purchase it with the new Apple ID.
