I gave my ipod to my daughter and it will not update

she is using her Apple Id but it is still asking for my password on my old id that I no longer have.  She cannot do any updates, i have deleted all accounts and re-logged in and still it is asking for the password for my old apple id.  I have tried to put the password in but it says it is wrong.  I no longer have that e-mail address so I can't change the password plus it says that the answer to my security question is wrong. How can I get the apple id for the updates to change to her id?

ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them.  Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password.  Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.
The only resolution of which I'm aware is for her to trash the Apps and purchase them again under her ID.

    My iPod touch is frozen and it will not turn off or anything. What do I do?
    I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, PLEASE HELLP ME!!!!!
    I need help!!!

    If not successful, try the remainder of:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                 
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I have the iPhone 5s. I synced it with my Mac and got all the old apps from my old phone. I was not able to update any of the apps on the old phone and they will not update on the new iPhone 5s either! What can I do?

    Hey there rmflint,
    It sounds like you are wanting to update the Apps that were synced over from your computer to your new iPhone 5s. If you are clicking Updates in the App Store in the bottom right corner, would you mind clarifying what happens when you are trying to update them?

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • IPod Touch 2 gen (16 GB) will not update

    My iPod Touch will not update to version 3. iTunes stops in the middle of the process of downloading the update file, and tells me the network connection has been reset. I have also tried restoring it, but the same thing happened and now the iPod will not start. It gives me the "Connect to iTunes" picture. The model is of an MB model. It originally came with an 2.2.1 version.
    Any help is appreciated.
    I am willing to try anything, except bringing it to an Apple store, because I live in Jamaica

    it actually needs more space than that.  The file size is your 65 mb is probably the ota incremental file size.  The full package is 700 mg, and the system needs 3 gig of free space to unpack and install.
    There is a fairly good discussion here

  • Apple TV3 and TV2 will not update to 5.2

    Same problem that seems to happen with every update. Brand new Apple TV is stuck at "Step One of Two." Same with old Apple TV 2. It will not update via wi-fi or ethernet cable. It will not update via iTunes. iTunes reports that the downloaded file is corrupted. Downloading the software at mirror sites and trying to use iTunes to update from the downloaded file also gives a report that the downloaded file is corrupted. Downloading 5.1.1 and attempting a restore from that file just hangs. I ran that all night with no progress.
    Both Apple TVs display severe artifacts on the screen, including screen freezing while the sound continues -- even on completely downloaded movies. The movies are basically unwatchable.
    Apple has been unable to fix these problems for years, now. I have an extensive iTunes movie library which is worthless because DRM prevents watching the movies using any other device. The way I see it, either give me an Apple TV that actually works or refund the money I spent on my iTunes movies.
    Between this and the stupid MacBook Pro wi-fi problems I may never buy an Apple product again.

    OK. I solved my issue.   Before changing your address on your Apple ID, you MUST be signed out of  iCloud and iTunes on your phone!  If your old email keeps reappearing on your phone  (and is grayed out), you'll have to go to your computer and change address back to the OLD  address.  Then, go back to phone and either (1) sign out or (2) remove the iCloud and/or iTunes apps which are opened  -  (which you'll be prompted to use old email address to verify). Finally, go back to computer and change email address back to the new one.      You'll then be able to set up apps on phone using the changed email address.
    Ugh, it took a while, but it worked!
