TS2446 I have been through all of the settings & done what was indicated however, my Apple ID that shows on my iphone when I want to update my apps is incorrect even though all the settings are correct in Settings/Store. Now what can I do???

The Apple ID on my iPhone is incorrect when trying to update apps. It is correct in my Settings. I have signed out & signed back on & this does not make any difference. I have also changed my password and that doesn't help. HOW can I correct the incorrect Apple ID that only shows when I try to update apps?? I would appreciate help! THANKS!

Even if you put a credit or debit card on file with iTunes it will still use your balance FIRST.
I would suggest putting a card on file and testing to see if it will allow you to make a purchase, then removing the card from the account after successful download of an item.

I had backed my iPhone4 up to my Mac. My phone got stolen in Ethiopia. Back in Norway I buy the 4S. After synchronizing I'm asked for my password on an old ID when I want to update my Apps! Solution?

My iPhone 4S comes up with a request for a password for an old AppleID when I want to update my Apps? Any suggestion what I should do?

when you open the app store scroll down to the bottom it will display the apple id currently in use, change it to your normal apple id email

How do I change the Apple ID in the prompt on my iPhone when I want to update an app?
My Apple ID on my iMac's iTunes Store is my current one.
My Apple ID on my iPhone is my former one.
How do I change the one on my iPhone.
Thanks,

Thank you.
I have not pinpointed the exact dates but I know I changed my Apple ID and downloaded the apps around the same time a few months ago.
My old ID is being used by a family member. I entered the password for that ID and the updates worked.
Next I will have to see what happens when I try to update the apps, she has some of the same, on her iPhone.
Again, thank you,
Tom

When I try to Updates for Apps on my iPhone4, I get the message " Cannot connect to iTunes store". All other wifi functions are working

When I try to Updates for Apps on my iPhone4, I get the message " Cannot connect to iTunes store". All other wifi functions are working including download of Apps and browsing.

Try a reset, hold the home/sleep button until the device powers off then powers back on and you see the apple logo. Release when you see the apple logo and allow it to finish booting. Once it is done try updating your apps again.

I have an iPhone 4S. It is showing one Apple I.D. when I want to update my apps, and another (the one I want to keep) everywhere else. How can I delete the unwanted one?

I have an iPhone 4S. When I want to update an app, it asks me for a password for an Apple I.D. I no longer use, because I don't know the password for it. The rest of the places where my I.D. Is listed, like in iTunes, has the password I want to use. How can I get the phone to disable the unusable I.D. and substitute the one I have the password for?

It should be Noted that anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID.

Go to settings/itunes and app store. Sign out then back in with your apple ID then password!

My old email come up when I want to update my apps.however I don't use that password at all,I've even had a message saying its not in use. I can't update them though which is really annoying! I've tried setting up that email again and change password but doesn't work at all.does anyone know how I can get rid of and use my current email?

Hi there, this problem has probably been resolved now, but I must say that I came across these posts today as I had the same problem, my old e mail kept popping up, but all sorted now! Old Apps are not tied to the old Apple ID, honestly!
Rudegar is so right, all you do is go the SETTINGS/iTunes & App Store, then select `Apple ID` `Sign Out` then you get the chance to enter your new ID, and it worked a treat!
Good luck with anyone else with this problem, as I spent so long on this, really stupid!
PS you`ll need to again verify bank details

Am in Israel for work for a few months. When I try to update my apps it tells me to locate the Israeli store. Any way to get around this? Thanks.

Am working in Israel for a few months. When I try to update my apps it tells me my account is not valid for use in the U.S. store, must PURCHASE in the Israeli store. I'm not trying to purchase new apps, just trying to update my apps. Ipad2 was purchased and registered in the U.S.
Thanks for any advice I receive.

All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then?

HT203167 It won't let me download apps it keeps coming up declined even though my bank details are correct please help

My appswont download it keeps coming up payment declined even though I tried all bank cards and rang the bank they say there is nothing wrong with my card everytime I go to download I sign in and it asks for payment details then say its declined please help as I have autism

Sorry. There's nothing anyone can do. The current version of the facebook app will not run on 4.2.1. The iPhone 3G won't run anything higher than 4.2.1. You're stuck.
Maybe it's time to buy yourself a new iPod Touch.

Hi , i am trying to update my aps on my iphone 5 , i go to updates select all , it asks for id and password , then goes back to updates without updating ,i have confirmed my details correct so am at a loss as to what to do

1. Try Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: > sign out

3. When iPhone is back, sign back in your Apple ID & password.

Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID

When I want to update my app a different account comes up now. Wierd. It's the family plan owners id...why is this happening and how do I fix it?

Upon wanting to update some of my apps, I now get prompted to login with the owner of the family plans login.
I have my own account attached to this phone. Why is this now happening and how do I return it to update my apps with my login ID?

Did you by chance accidentally purchase these app with the different account?
Because all apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase it.
You can also check settings - appstore - apple id - if it isn't your id, log out and log in with your id.
