Updating 85 existing apps - Is it possible to cancel one app update version?

     Members:
  Do not wish to continue update of current Skype version to version 4.0.1.1325 just downloaded with 84 other app updates.
Have not yet synched Touch ver. 10.6.1.7 (iOS 5.1.1) with iTunes/Library/apps.
Considered deleting the new version of Skype from iTunes, but the warning about losing the Touch version of Skype when the device was synched with iTunes is not the result acceptable.
Is it possible to still save the old Skype version on the Touch?
The new Skype version is supposed to be loaded with ads ...
Is the hard drive iTunes backup still containing the old Skype version?
If "Yes", can I import the old backup into iTunes, and then reupdate my apps without selecting the new version of Skype this time?
     Thanks,
                         always cautious.

     Hi,  have been fussing since my original post and your prompt reply/solution; but, there's still too much chicken here to commit ...
Is this clear about my objectives:
  I have an old Skype version still on my 3rd. gen. Touch, and do not wish to upgrade the version to the newer, current version now available at the iTunes Store, and also I have already downloaded 85 update apps from the Store to iTunes for Windows.
Windows iTunes is waiting to install all 85 update apps, and I do not want the new Skype version with the ads.
My itunes computer is always authorized, and the auto sych device option is always disabled.
Are you saying, transfer the purchased apps from the device to itunes; and therefore the downloaded updates waiting in iTunes will be over-written by the older device apps copies/versions still on the device??
If this chicken explaination is correct, then would removing the synch checkmark in front of the left side of the newer Skype version icon; and the checkmark to the left of auto-synch New programs/apps and the synching to the device be the same result, except that the 84 app updates in itunes would be completed without a reloading of those apps to itunes minus the new version of Skype with the ads.
Would like to clean this up successfully before synching with a new 4th. gen. Touch, and a new iPhone.
I do appreciate your involvement towards a sharper image in my mind.
    Thank you,
                            Always Cautious (of course.)

    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 one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

  • Trying to update existing apps; will only prompt me for an old iTunes account that does not exist any more

    How do I get a prompt for my new account when updating existing apps? I had used one of my sons account for most of the apps on my iPhone. I have since move up to a iPhone 4S and created my own account to use iCloud.   But everytime I try to update the exiting apps I am prompted for a password to my sons account. I am logged on to iCloud with my new account at the same time.
    It looks like the apps retain some kind of tag to the original account used during download.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • HT3702 i have updated my billing information and still can't update the existing Apps. I changed the credit card and still same problem

    I have updated my billing information and still can't update my existing apps , i ahve changed the payment card and still same problem ,what shall i do ?

    It's a credit card, not a debit card ? As far as I know that message will show if you are trying to use a card that was not issued by a bank in the same country as where your iTunes account is based (and you need to be in that country). If you are sure that it is then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can help : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • On my ipad I updated my itunes software. All my existing apps were wiped out. How do I revive them?

    On my ipad I updated my itunes software. All my existing apps were wiped out. How do I revive them?
    I do not know the operating system name, but it was the operation system that came with my ipad.  This ipad was the first ipad system that was sols by apple.

    You seem like a person who knows their stuff. I seek some advice in regards to in app purchase issuse after changing apple id and details.  I played on my partners iPad he got me my own but my games were purchased via his apple I'd.  His work email I'd so we temporarily changed his appple I'd to what I use and account card/billing details, password etc to what suited me. Then backed up connected the new iPad and did a restore. One of my games dont have a in game save/load feature to move game hence the backup and restore so I don't loose progress. Only problem is i tried to do a in app purchase to see if then game file moved correctly and it seems to never connect to server unless I sign out of store and in again then prompt to purchase comes up. After that password yet no product it don't download. Could it be that it is because he has re created his old I'd that i changedup again as new? As before he did that when I tried to purchase I was promptly asked for confirmation but he never let me complete the purchase kept saying its worked. Or is it something else?

  • Since updating my iPhone 4S, existing apps won't update and cannot update new apps even after deleting apps to make room. What can I do?

       Whenever I try to download a new app, I receive an error message that the app can't be downloaded at this time, try again later. Also, existing apps won't update. I have tried deleting apps to make more room, but so far nothing has helped.

    Does it also ask you to contact itunes support?

  • Update existing app to support PUSH notifications?

    Hi
    Please can someone confirm this - I need to update an existing app (using an APP ID with a wildcard) to support PUSH notifications. For this I need to have a non-wildcard APP-ID. However now the question is that if I change the APP-ID to be something else, will the App Still update fine (the one using a Wildcard APP-ID). I don't want customers/users to pay for the app again! Please kindly clarify.
    Thanks

    Basically when you create a provisioning profile (dev/distribution), you need to associate that with an App ID. Since in the past all our apps were provisioned with a certificate that was tied to an App-ID that was something like com.blah.* we are now unable to use this App-ID for PUSH notifications.
    Requirement for PUSH Notifications is to first setup an App-ID for PUSH. Here's where the problem is. If we create a new App-ID for PUSH, we will have to generate a new Distrib/Dev certificate and sign the Application with that certificate. If we do this, existing customers (I believe) will not be able to (1) update their app, OR (2) we won't be able to issue an update to an existing App since the Distrib Certs don't match (nor do the App-IDs) - at least that's my understanding.
    I'm worried this all is going to go terribly wrong somewhere. Can someone who's already updated an existing app for PUSH confirm there's nothing to worry about?
