Sign up with different apple ID to update an app

I want to update an application from the app store, but when I clicked the "update", i'm asked to sign in with an apple ID that was used to make the first purchase of the app. anyone knows what does that mean?since I never make any purchase with different apple ID. i just changed the country as i moved to The U.S. two weeks ago (the former country/region was Indonesia). Does it cause a problem?thanks a lot

Yeah but I always use the same apple ID since the first time I made a purchase. I just changed my country from Indonesia to United States.
So what should I do? I've tried to change the country to Indonesia but the result was the same. I still could not update any app in my mac.
thanks

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

    how to sign in with different apple id?

    I would also caution you to make sure that you understand the implications of signing in with another Apple ID. If you changed your Apple ID, go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap the old ID and sign out, then sign in with the new ID. Read this as well.

    If you want to sign into another Apple ID so that you can download purchased content with that other ID without paying for it, that will lock you out of your own ID for 90 days. Read this for more information.

  • I can't sign in with different apple id.

    Hi, I have the same problem with iPhone and the iPad.
    When I open the AppStore app, then go to the Featured tab and try to sign in and choose to use an existing apple id, I just can't type the apple id I need.
    I just can type the password, there's no way to choose the apple id.
    What seems to be the problem?
    If I try to sign in in Settings and go to the Store tab I can choose the apple id, but in the App Store app it is not possible.
    Thanks in advance.
    PS: sorry about my bad english.

    Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID > sign out then sign in with the Apple ID you prefer.

  • You are signed in with different Apple ID than previously used with Podcasts

    You are signed in with a different Apple ID than previously used with Podcasts. Do you want to sync these podcast subscriptions and stations with “[email protected]”?
    If you choose to sync then these podcasts and stations will be merged with any that have been syncing on other devices or computers.
    Why am I keep getting this memo everytime I start my Itunes?? How to make it disappear?
    Many thanks.

    Please sign out of the iTunes Store by selecting
    Store ▹ Sign Out
    from the iTunes menu bar. Then sign back in.

  • I need to update my apps in the App Store, but when i try to update, the Sign Up Apple ID pop up box came out with different Apple ID. How can I change it to mine? My iTunes Store already login with my own Apple ID.

    Just now you said the other Apple ID stored inside it, is that mean all my data back up in that the other ID?

    The Early 2011 MacBook Pro shipped with Snow Leopard, so these are not the Mac App Store versions of iLife, they are the boxed software versions.
    If they are in an iWork '09 folder take them out and let them loose in the Apps folder. Then reindex your HDD.

  • Error: This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again.

    I am trying to update iphoto but I have been receiving the error message "This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again." All other IDs I have had NO LONGER work or aren't activated. I deleted the current verison of iphoto, but it still won't work, so now I have no iphoto whatsoever...any ideas? my current ID is my ONLY ID I have.

    Apple Closed all other accounts and the logins DO NOT WORK!
    Apple would only have closed an account if you called Apple and formally requested that be done. Otherwise, the account is still there.
    I was able to delete my old apps and redownload them onto my computer which switch the Apple ID it was under, but I am not having the same luck with iPhoto.
    Those would have been free apps that you "bought" again using your new Apple ID. iPhoto is a paid app and Apple will not transfer it to a different Apple ID.

  • I am trying to update the apps in my MacBook Air but even though I am signed in with my apple ID an email of a person I don't know appears in the Apple ID tab and I can't change it

    I am trying to update the apps in my computer, but even though I am signed in with my Apple ID in the App Store, the tab where I am supposed to enter my Apple ID to to update it, someone else's email apprear. What do I do?

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
    1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
    Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
    Raw Query
    as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
    4. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
    If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

  • When I try to update my youtube app, I'm asked to sign in with my Apple ID. The only problem is, it shows my sons Email instead of mine! When I go to settings my email is still there. How can I change the email when it asks me to put MY password in?

    When I try to update my youtube app, I'm asked to sign in with my apple password but the email it shows is my sons! In my settings it still shows my email. Nowhere in my settings on my Ipod or if I sign in to Apple with my computer does it show his email. Can anyone help???

    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them. Thus it appears that yor sone purchased the app.
    - 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 am unable to update my apps... in my purchases page it appears as "update", then a message tells me to log on with the Apple ID I purchased the app with... Well I have tried my two different accounts and neither one will work, can someone help ??

    And is there any way to sync all my purchases and accounts to just have one... It is a bit stupid that you dont even get a list of something of what account you may of used, or some kind of hint, so you could log on to the right account. I am really stuck ...

  • I'm trying an email address i know is mine yet still getting this message:"That Apple ID is already in use.If this Apple ID was created by you, simply sign in with your Apple ID and password.If it does not belong to you, try again using a different name."

    I keep getting this message:  "That Apple ID is already in use.If this Apple ID was created by you, simply sign in with your Apple ID and password.If it does not belong to you, try again using a different name."
    I'm trying to create a new id and e-mail using an e-mail address that is mine and has been mine for over a year - any ideas why this could be happening?

    Trying where? What sort of email address? The following answer is based on a guess as to what you are talking about.
    If you already have an @me.com address, perhaps as a result of having had a MobileMe account, and you are now setting up an iCloud account with an Apple ID you will find you will be asked to create a new @me.com address, and that you can't add your existing one because it is already an Apple ID.
    You can do one of two things:
    1. Sign out at System Preferences; sign in with your existing @me.com address and enable Mail.
    2. Stay signed in with the present ID and add your @me.com address in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts & Calendars.
    If you have further questions, or if your situation is different from what I've assumed, do please post back, but in a suitable forum - this one is specifically about using these Forums.

    Yes, my telco is an approved carrier. If my phone was brand new, I think so, they opened it in front of me.. I really couldn't remember it was 1.4 years ago. It did seem new.
    Well it says, "_____" cannot be used to unlock this iphone. I've tried both my apple ids but it didn't work.
