Why are old apps from different user account still on iPad 2 when I changed to a new itunes account?

I am a teacher and we are setting up accounts for our iPad carts, and we originally had one account for all our iPads, and have now switched to using three separate accounts.  When I logged into iTunes with our new ID for the cart, and tried syncing an iPad, it still had the old apps on the iPad that I was trying to sync with the new account.  The apps were also still in the iTunes Library, which I thought was odd since they are from the different account.  So are these apps supposed to still be on the iPad, and if not what should we do?

If the apps are still in the iTunes library on the computer that you are syncing them from then they will remain on the iPad - more thatn one account can be authorised on a computer's iTunes (via the Store > Authorise This Computer drop-down menu option), the account doesn't need to be the one that is logged in. If you don't want those apps on the iPads anymore then you could delete them from that computer's iTunes

    Hi ...
    Just be cause the account was disabled (Apple ID) doesn't mean you can't reset the password and have access to your iTunes purchases.
    Use the iforgot link to reset your password > Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" alert appears
    If you have problems resetting, use the email form here >   Apple - Support - iTunes Store - Contact Us

  • TS1424 When i try to download or update my apps. Message pop out "there is an billing problem on your previous purchased". I tried to change my visa acct no. Still unable to access. Tried to create new itune account & access but they still showed old itun

    When tried to download or update it showed"there is a problem in billing from previous purchased" changed to new payment account still unable to access. Created new itune account still cant access, keep showing old account detailed. & asked for verification. Pls assist. Thank you.

    Also when I apply the safety copy it only imports the app the phones have had in common, so none of the apps that only the iPhone 4 had doesn't come in, only the ones I and the iPhone 4 has had in common. So you say the only way I can use the Apple ID to download on the old iPhone 4 is if I delete the apps that are in the phone and then download them again? How will that change the ID to download/update from. Won't it still have mine to update/download from?

  • My itunes account was set up under an email account that has been deleted. I started a new itunes account but have the same device as with the old account. How do i keep my music thats on my ipod touch from being deleted when i sync it to my new account?

    My itunes account was set up under an email account that has been deleted. I started a new i tunes account but have the same device as with the old account. How do i keep my music thats on my ipod touch from being deleted whin i sync it to itunes after purchasing new music?

    I have the same problem (deleted email account). I think I mistakenly set up an account when I was buying an Apple product online, not realizing that it would be the same ID as my iTunes.
    What is the way to actually contact Apple?
    I have been clicking around in circles for hours! Will I have to pay them to resolve this? I don't have any products still have applecare . . .

  • New iPhone user - why are there 3,953 message listed at bottom of email when they do not exist in my account?

    New iPhone 4 user.  Have 2 email accounts.  There are 3,954 messages total, 35 unread shown at the bottom of the AOL screen.
    There may be a 100 total at most that show up on my computer internet including saved.  How can I eliminate 3,800 or so because they definitely
    need to be deleted without having to delete them one by one? 
    Thanks

    Delete the account and re-enter it.

  • Rental movie has expired but is still on iPad when I look at it in iTunes. I can't delete it and it doesn't show up in Videos app. How do I get rid of it?

    I've tried unsyncing my movies but it's still there. I rented it about two months ago, and I've had 2 OS updates since then. There is a downloading icon next to it, which is strange because I watched it. I've checked the store for downloads and there is nothing waiting to be downloaded for my account.
    How do I get rid of it? It's taking up a lot of space.

    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.  Usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
    To restore from backup see:

    To restore to factory settings/new iPod see:

  • HT201269 Could I make a new iTunes account for my iPhone and transfer the music and tv episodes from the cloud of my old account to my phone?

    I want to make a new iTunes account, but I don't want to loose all of my previous purchases from my old account. Could I create a new account from y iPhone? And with that new account, could I use the icloud from the old account to sync my previous purchases?

    Purchases are forever tied to the ID used to purchase them. If you create a new iTunes account, you can still get your old purchases on your phone, but you'd have to sign out of the iTunes/App store with your new ID, then sign in with your old ID, then download them. Also, apps can only be updated using the ID used to originally obtain them. So, you'd have to sign out/sign in to update your apps that were obtained with the old ID.

  • My kids have somehow deleted lots of my apps.  can i move apps from one user to another?

    my kids have deleted alot of my apps from my account.  Is there a way to transfer apps from one user to another? 

    You can export albums as a new library, just like you exported your projects. Then merge the albums into your library on your other computer.
    When you export a selection of albums a a new library, Aperture will export and include the originating projects as well, so the exported library needs to be merged into the destination library, not "added", otherwise you will have duplicates.
    For example: Exporting a project with two albums:

  • 1 Apple ID, 2 iCloud accounts. Why are they syncing across different iPhone 4's?

    My sister and I both have the iPhone 4 from Verizon. Recently, I made an iCloud account with a .me address, then she made a separate one. Once she made hers, our contacts and reminders have merged to both of our phones. I can't figure out how to stop that. I don't think it should happen since there are 2 separate iCloud accounts. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    I am having similar problem.  I think I know how it happens but not easy to fix. 
    "Apple ID" account is different than iCloud account, but when setting up new phone, everything asks for 'apple ID' although you can use icloud or apple ID.  Apple ID is typical for itunes store.  if one user for both, it's ok to use both.  but for multiple users this is the problem.
    my problem is I set up my husband's iphone and set him up on my itunes account (accident), so it merged my contacts into his contacts because I put my apple id in there.  I created an icloud email for him to try to fix it but it links this email account now to my apple id still.  and when I created an icloud me.com account for him, it didn't ask for a password. 
    trying to figure out how to create a separate icloud account for him to separate our contacts then only use apple id for apple store/itunes.   ANYONE KNOW HOW TO CORRECT THIS?

    No.  purchases are forever tied to the apple ID used to buy them.  Delete them and buy your own copies.

  • If I make a new iTunes account will I lose my app music etc from my old account

    If I make a new iTunes account will I lose my app music etc from my old account

    1. No.
    2. Not as long as you're still syncing it with the same iTunes library. If you meant iTunes libraries and not iTunes Store accounts to begin with, you need to use the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes.

  • Why are some apps that I bought not on my purchased items on my itunes account?

    Why are some apps that I bought not on my purchased items on my itunes account?  I bought 4 apps, then had to reset my iPad, later when trying to download them back onto the iPad, they were not listed under by Purchased apps in my account in iTunes.  Thanks for any help!

    Plug in your iPhone to iTunes on your Computer, let it sync the games onto the Computer, then plug in your iPad and go to Apps in iTunes and select the apps then apply and it will download them to the iPad :)
    If you have trouble when in Apps in iTunes on your Computer, it will say iPhone and iPod touch Apps. Hope this helps!!

    Changing devices is no reason to create a new Apple ID.
    All content purchased from iTunes is permanently linked to the Apple ID it was purchased with.
    To update apps purchased with the old ID, you MUST sign in with that Apple ID.
