I cannot update or buy apps because it keeps saying my itunes password is invalid.

I am able to log in on the computer with my apple id but when i try to buy apps or try to update my apps on my phone and it asks me for my password it keeps telling me my password is invalid.

Just make sure that the correct apple ID is on the phone for the iTunes store.  I had the same problem.  My Apple ID is through a hotmail account.  But for what ever reason with an upgrade it switched me to the mobile me account on my iPhone.

  • I cannot update or buy apps as it always says you need to verify password by email but no matter how many times I ask I cannot get the email.  Help please

    I cannot do upgrades or buy apps as it keeps asking me to verfy my password by email but I cannot get Apple to send the email.  I have tried repeatedly.  Help please.

    I seen this many times, and in just about all cases, it's the user resetting a different AppleID than what's being used for the iTunes account.

    Thank you for the help, have sorted it through Restrictions in General settings now : )
    No more mysterious app purchases on my c.card now thank god !!
    You would think they would set as default that Password was required - Imediatly . But they know there likely to get more purchases the way the default set it..
    Thanks again for prompt reply!!!

  • Cannot update my move app because of unknown error when entering my password for my apple id

    I am having problems updating my iMovie app. I saw the new update at my work place when finishing up the work day, so i thought i'd update it. But soon i relaised that it too some time as the file being downloaded was quite large, so i decided to pause it and update it later when i got back home. But when i reached home and tried to resume the update... I entered my Apple ID and Password, but it would tell me that my password is wrong. I can't be entering the wrong password as i tried to check my account using itunes and there was no problem loging in... Can someone advice on this?

    Sign out of the App Store (Store > Sign Out) and sign back in.

  • I cannot log in to my emails, it keeps saying that my password is incorrect

    My i pod touch iOS 5.1 will not let me log in to my emails, it keeps telling me that my password and username is incorrect can anyone help?

    It will let me add my email to it, but is always saying the username and password are incorrect, I can save the details and it'll stay there, but if i trying to check my mail it continues saying its not correct and gives me the option to go to settings, which I have done multiple times. I have put my password and username in correctly several times and it still says it's incorrect.
    It started doing this over the weekend, it was fine before that.

  • I changed my apple ID successfully online on my iPad and iPhone but when I wish to buy an app, the old ID comes up automatically and there seems to be nothing I can do, so I cannot update or buy any apps.

    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")
    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 > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

    I cannot update apps, download apps and have had to remove apps because they keep crashing!
    I have turned off, removed apps, tried to reinstall them. iTunes can't download them either, the updates for them won't work.
    Never had problems with iPhones until now and this has really annoyed me... Apps have cost me money have had to go because they won't function
    the error messages say that data cannot be downloaded at this time and it is ot because I do not have free space because I have removed items to make sure there is room!

  • I cannot update my iPhone apps

    i cannot update my iPhone apps - when i try to download updates that are available, i get the message "cannot connect to the iTunes store."  (But I can connect to the iTunes store to purchase a new app.)

    I updated to this crappy IO5 thing and ever since, I've been having problems, too.  Of course, I thought I had done something wrong.  Now that I've found you guys here, it's nice to know I'm not losing my mind.
    Most of my apps are now missing.  (Purchased and free)  I figured it was a scam by apple to make us buy them again so they could make more money.  Which REALLY irritated me.
    My phone shows that I, too, have 6 updates and when I try to update, the apple id is my daughter's.  How do I change that?  Where do I change that?  NOBODY in this house knows what THAT password is!!! 
    I went to my itunes account on my computer (signed in just fine with my id and password i've been using for years) and tried to update the apps there.  It said I had 6 updates, then when I hit the update button, it said I had 13.  And now that it's done?  I have 4 more to update, but i get the message "No updates are currently available.  To check for updates on another Apple ID, sign in with that Apple ID".  WTH????
    As much money as I know MY family spends between updating phones, the monthly 'subscription' rate to make it all work, the songs we purchase, the apps we purchase, etc (not to mention everyone else in the world that they get money from)........ Apple isn't giving us any warm n fuzzy feelings to make us want to renew any contracts in 3 months and keep the iPhones.  We may be looking into alternate phones - that are not apple associated.
    Is anything working for anyone?  Is anyone able to figure out this updating dilema??
