I have changed my Apple ID primary email but it doesn't seem to make any difference to the email that comes up as my Apple ID when I try to update my apps.Still getting my old email details
I have changed Internet providers and have finally managed to update my primary email details under the Apple ID manage your account area.
However my old email details are still showing up when I try to update my apps etc. Can anyone please tell me what else I have to do to change my Apple ID. It seemed that I had already successfully done this but obviously not. I have an iPad 2
Did you change the ID in Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID? Tap the old ID and sign out and then sign in with the new one. If not running iOS 6 it will be Settings>Stores>Apple ID.

Why when I try to update certain app it require an old email address and password I have not used for years and I do I get to update them on my new details
Apps are tied to the Apple ID that was used to purchase them and you will always need to use that ID and password in order to update them.
Saying that you do get to update them on your new details makes no sense at all. -

Can someone please offer some suggestions why I am getting an error message that says "an unknown error has occured" when I try to download or update my apps in the app store?
Thanks!
disregard! i noticed someone else's post about signing out of the app store and signing in again and it worked.....Hi ...
Try here > Mac App Store: "An unknown error occurred (100)" when purchasing
If that doesn't help, drag the App Store icon straight up off your Dock so it goes, "poof".
Now drag the App Store icon from your Applications folder to the Dock. Try updating your apps. -

ThanksHi cropduster,
It sounds like permissions have changed with your iTunes folder.
Follow the troubleshooting steps in the article below, and hopefully that will resolve your issue:

Like I said above, print to Adobe pdf and it wants to cut off the text on the right margin. I can't see to find a setting that changes this. Any ideas??
OK, so I have now found that this is apparently normal for iTunes, to only accept mpeg 4 movie files, all the searching I did before I must have worded it wrong because I couldn't find anything about this, incredibly. Had been looking for why iTunes won't take all the files it previously did, like if it had been changed, and it hasn't, it's allegedly always taken only mpeg 4 files. Also I had been searching for why iTunes crashes every time I try and add/import anything but mpeg 4 files, and even sometimes with mpeg 4 files. That isn't normal, it's supposed to just do nothing apparently as I've just found out. So for these reasons I didn't find the answer despite my searching all over the web.
So I guess that answers my own question now, but I'm still perplexed as to why I absolutely, definitely, without any doubt, had several hundred movies of a few different video file types loaded, accessible and playable in my iTunes library that everything here claims iTunes never accepted. It apparently shouldn't have been possible for me to have done this, but for probably 10 years it's been this way.
Perhaps since I don't remember adding these files to iTunes anymore recently than maybe 6 or 7 years ago, the iTunes back then did accept all kinds of file types? Or could I have somehow had some video codecs or software that expanded the capability of my movie players like Quicktime Player that unwittingly also allowed iTunes to take those files as well? All I know is somehow it worked! So now my question is how did I have it working before, so that maybe I can make it work again. -
My iphone nas numerous apps that need updated. My iphone and itunes are current with the latest updates.
When I try to update my apps I get the message" cannot connect ti itunes store". Any help ?Content bought using one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID.
All you need to do is delete those apps belonging to your wife.
Check Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: > your own Apple ID here. If not, sign out here and sign in yours. -
When I try to update my apps, and old email address appears,how I get rid of it? I am not tech savvy at all!
This is happening because they were purchased with your older Apple ID. Apps and there updates are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, regardless of the ID on your phone in Settings>Store. The only way to stop the prompt for your older ID would be to delete these apps from your phone.

When I try to update an App I am getting my old email address (which no longer works) and when I put in its password it says password or username is wrong. but it does not give me an option to put in my new user name. How can I correct this.
What you are getting is the AppleID (AppleID can be an email adress) used at the time of the purchase of this app. It is an identifiant allowing Apple to link your purchase to your account.
If you want to manage associated email, you can go at https://appleid.apple.com but the AppleID could never be modified.
I do not know if in your case, it is just that you no longer use your old email address or that you actually a 2 AppleID. In any case, you will have to remember the password related to the account used for your purchase. If you don't, just use the link above to try to retreive your password. -
i just created a new apple id for my self and when i go to update an app it shows my moms email and she wont tell me her password how do i get my email to show up
You should have your stuff separate from your mom's. Delete all the apps downloaded or purchased with your mom's Apple ID and download or purchase them with your own Apple ID. Back up files and data first if possible.

I Have a new email address which I have entered into settings and it has been verified. I no longer have the old email address. When I try to update an app, it comes up with my old email address and asks for my password. It always comes back with a message that the password is incorrect. What do I do to fix this?
Hi Vivian Zollman,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I'm not sure if you are referring to your Apple ID or just your email account in the Mail app. So, I've included all of the articles that may be relevant for you.
iOS: Setting up an email account
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4810
If you already have an email account set up and you want to modify its settings, tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, tap the name of your account, and then your email address. Then tap any information you want to adjust.

I created a new ID for my Iphone, because the old ID was an email address I no longer have. Also, the phone wouldn't recognize the password I have always used. Now the problem is when I try to update my apps, it automatically wants to use the old ID. I've set the new ID for the phone, but it defaults to the old one when asking for a password to update apps.
That's because all apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to obtain them, & can only be updated using that ID.
To use your new ID with these apps, you'll have to delete them, then repurchase. Or, contact iTunes support, explain the situation, & ask that they add these apps to the download queue of your new ID.
