I recently changed my Apple ID username and password and now get a message each time I open my iPad to enter my Apple ID to continue to receive downloads. However the message shows the old username for my Apple ID.

I recently changed my Email address which required me to change my username for my Apple ID and my password. The changed has been successful, but each time that I open my iPad, I get a message that I need to enter my Apple ID to continue to receive downloads. The problem is that the username that comes up for entry of the password is the OLD Apple ID username. I have entered the old password and then then I am directed that it is not correct and given advice to change my password or username. I can't figure out how to resolve this issue.

If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad.

  • IPhoto message each time I open the app...

    Everytime I open iPhoto I get a message like this: "6 photos have been found in the iPhoto library that were not imported. Would you like to import them now?" I click YES everytime, but still keep getting that message each time I open the app. What can I do to stop getting that message?

    I also get pop up messages when I open iPhoto - in my case 10,000 photos not yet imported, do I want to import them now etc.
    I have tried to follow your advice but when I control click on my iphoto library in Pictures folder, I don't get the option to "show package contents". Im using iPhoto 6. Can you suggest any further options for me?
    These photos multiply whenever I try to do an import from my iPhone - iPhoto crashes in the middle of the import, So the number of "unimported" photos leaps by two thousand or so each time.

  • Why is TB re-syncing/re-load with GMail all messages each time I open TB? Slows down TB by much each time.

    Why is TB re-syncing/re-load with GMail all messages each time I open TB?
    It does slow down quite heavily. e.g. It takes almost 5 mins to just write a simple short email, since ''freezing'' at every 3-4 caracters.
    All other programs on the computer work fine in the meantime, though. Including word processor. So it is really a TB issue.
    Or is it a GMail issue, forcing download everytime a connection is created ?
    I am on Win8.1 on an ASUS AiO.
    Thanks

    IMAP mail accounts see a remote view of the server.
    You subscribe to see server Folders.
    Headers are downloaded and when you select to view an email, the emails are downloaded to a temp cache to enable quicker access to those emails, but upon exit Thunderbird the temp cache is lost, so you cannot read emails if offline. These emails are not stored on your computer.
    If you synchronise subscribed folders, then a copy of the folder is downloaded to Thunderbird Profile folder and stored in an mbox file. This means you can read them even if offline.
    However, the folder is set up to synchronise with the server when changes occur, so that your copy and the folder on the server are updated to be the same.
    I would recomend that you do not allow folders to get too big as it would take longer to synch.

    Can you see an 'All Mail' folder?
    This is gmails copy of all your emails, so it is gmail Archive of your emails.
    This folder can get huge. As it only shows you what you already have in other folders, it also doubles the size of your Profile and can take a while to download. It is recommended that you do not subscribe to see this folder.

  • Why is the master password entry window popping up twice each time I open my Firefox?

    Each time I open my Firefox, and go to a website where my password has been stored, the master password window pops up. When I enter it, it disappears, and requires me to enter it a second time. In essence, the window prompt is popping up twice. One over the top of another. I have even tried to uninstall Firefox and reinstall it. Same problem.

  • Messages icon indicates that there is an unopened message but when i go into it the message is blank and no option to delete it. Any ideas how i can get rid of this and stop it from opening up in the blank message each time i open my messages?

    The message icon on my iphone indicates that there is an unopened text message, but when i go into it, it just opens up a blank message, and there is no option to delete it. Any suggestions how i can get rid of this message, and prevent my phone from always opening up in the blank message whenever i go into my messages, rather than just opening as my inbox?
    Many thanks

    Hard restart..  While the phone is powered in, hold the power and home button.   Hold them down and keep them held down.  the phone will eventually shut itself off and reopen.  keep held down till you see the appl elogo, then release.  This will not delete anything off your phone, it will just force all apps to stop their current process.  If you just turn the phone on and off, it will just pick up where it left off.  Good luck

  • Have downloaded the newest Firefox problem is when I right click to open a new link in new tab the text and images always get larger in each time I open new link to get right size I must must constantly press " ctrl + 0 "

    problem new browser

    Starting Firefox in Safe Mode does indeed get rid of the behavior I find undesirable. Thank you.
    However, I still wonder why one should have to go through the extra step (starting in Safe Mode) to avoid the second tab in the newly opened window.
    I have not added any add-ons to Firefox on my PC.
    The problem suddenly started occurring a while back, after an automatic update of Firefox to the latest version.
    Any thoughts on WHY this is happening?

  • I had an old account for my apple I.D and the email that i had expired, so I switched my apple I.D as my recent gmail, but it still asks me for my old apple I.D and password, what do I do

    I had an old account for my apple I.D and the email that i had expired, so I switched my apple I.D as my recent gmail, but it still asks me for my old apple I.D and password, what do I do?

    Go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Lately I have been getting a rectangular screen titled Login Setting, with my Username and Password and asking me to Login.  This screen shows up on opening the computer and has never been seen before the last month or so.

    Lately I have been getting a rectangular screen titled Login Setting, with my Username and Password and asking me to Login.  This screen shows up on opening the computer and has never been seen before the last month or so.  It has one box titled Login Credentials with a username and password field and a second box titled Login Status at the bottom where it says "Profile not found" in red.   I've never seen this before and ignoring it does not effect any operations.   Is this legitimate or some kind of identity fishing?

    http://www.mac-and-i.net/2012/04/flashback-detect-and-remove-uprising.html
    In order to avoid detection, the installer will first look for the presence of some antivirus tools and other utilities that might be present on a power user's system, which according to F-Secure include the following:
    /Library/Little Snitch
    /Developer/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode
    /Applications/VirusBarrier X6.app
    /Applications/iAntiVirus/iAntiVirus.app
    /Applications/avast!.app
    /Applications/ClamXav.app
    /Applications/HTTPScoop.app
    /Applications/Packet Peeper.app
    If these tools are found, then the malware deletes itself in an attempt to prevent detection by those who have the means and capability to do so. Many malware programs use this behavior, as was seen in others such as the Tsunami malware bot.

    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new Apple ID.
    Apple ID security issues -
    Call Apple Care and ask for the Account Security Team. They can assist you with your issue of recovering the old Apple ID.

    I recently changed my username n password. Now that I'm trying to update my apps, it still default at my old username. How can I change it to new username?

    Sorry, you can't. Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to originally obtain them. They cannot be updated using any other Apple ID, nor can they be transferred to another Apple ID. You will have to update them using the ID used to originally obtain them.

  • I have a question, I've always used my moms old email for my Apple ID because I got my first apple product when I was a little kid and I didn't have an email so if I change it will people have to make new contacts of me on their devices?

    I have a question I've always used my moms old email for my Apple ID but when I text on iMessage it says my moms email is the one who sent the message and it's embarrassing so if I change my Apple ID email will my friends have to make new contacts of me on their devices? please answer this as soon as possible I beg you.

    If you get your own Apple ID, then you will need a new email address unless you have an email address that is different from your mom's. In that case you use your own email address as your Apple ID.
    You will have to reconfigure everything to associate them with your new Apple ID. This also means any apps or music you  purchased using your mom's Apple ID will have to be repurchased using your Apple ID.

    I changed my Apple ID (other email address and password) and now I can not login to my account in the iPhone iCloud. When I open the tab iCloud displayed my old Apple ID (it was in the iCloud) and asks for a password, but neither the old nor the new password does not match. What to do?

    If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information.  Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.
