Why wont Apps recognize a new apple id?

I needed to change my apple I'd.  My apps will not recognize the new name or password?

That is the way it always works. Apps are tied to the ID that was used to purchase them. If you had to create a new ID - you can download new content with that ID - but you will have to continue to use the old ID in order to update the apps that you bought with the old ID.
So - those apps will not recognize the new ID - only the old one.

    Apps and music are forever tied to the Apple ID under which they were purchased.  If you don't want to continue to get that message, delete the apps and purchase them again with your new Apple ID.

I tried to log in under my old apple id, but I cant as my new one as been created?

    Any purchases and downloads associated with an apple id are forever tied to that apple id. You can not merge any content, purchases, or info between the two accounts.

  • My Apple id was disabled and had to make a new one for iTunes but it's not letting me erase then re download the app with the new Apple ID

    My Apple id was disabled and had to make a new one for iTunes but it's not letting me erase then re download the app with the new Apple ID   Just got an iPad air 2 so my iCloud and family sharing is with the one that's disabled. Which I don't know how to switch to my new one, so I trying to erase my apps that won't load and just re download them with my new ID that is being used with the iTunes n app store but I can't even find most in purchased plus it's saying that I can't get it cuz that ID is not with family sharing but I donT know why it would not be. Please someone help.

    OOk so I have my new Apple id in my iTunes account but my old Apple ID is the one that is in the iCloud account which is the Apple ID have been using for years and the reason I cannot get it on this abled is because somebody was using my credit card or debit card that was on file for family sharing and it was a stolen iPhone from my account so they had to disable my Apple ID and I could not use my debit card anymore on any Apple ID ever again they said because of it so I can't get it not to be disabled and I can't sign into iTunes with it I already have signed out and signed in with my new Apple ID for iTunes it's just iCloud is not letting me load anything so pretty much what I've been doing is I have to erase every app and then re-dumb going to iTunes and re-download the apps again but the only issue is that I still have a disabled Apple ID as my iCloud settings and my iCloud family sharing in all of that so I'm wondering how or is it possible to change my Apple ID for iCloud specifically because when I go into Icloud and settings and go into my name where my Apple ID is the one that's disabled it doesn't say anything about log out or sign out or anything like that it just says to put the password for it so is there a way to change the Apple ID for my iCloud so that my iTunes in my iCloud is the same Apple ID?

  • Why wont apps store load on ipod5 wifi is on and signal is good

    Why wont apps store load on ipod 5. wifi is on and signal is good

    Using the battery level meter in this manner is comparable to using your car's fuel gauge to calculate miles per gallon.  The only thing that matters is the total amount of operating time from full charge to auto-shutdown.
    Use the wall-mount charger that came with the iPad and charge overnight.  Admittedly the labeling is hard to read but, if you use a magnifier and squint your eyes, you'll see "Output 5.1V, 2.1A."  The symbol between volts and amps is the symbol for DC.  Do NOT use an iPhone charger.  Do NOT use an iPod charger.  Do NOT use a computer's USB port.  Then, operate it normally until auto shut-down (ignore any low level alerts that may appear).  An irony is that doing that test to determine the total operating time is also the exact procedure necessary to calibrate the battery level meter.
    I'm not claiming that you do not have a problem.  I am stating, however, that we don't yet know whether or not a battery problem exists.
    According to Apple:
    Use Your iPad Regularly
    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
    Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge.

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

  • Why when i use a new apple Id and new id for icloud all my information is gone? For example all my contracts are all gone.

    I don't know why when i used a new apple ID and new icloud ID all my information is done. My contracts are all gone. This only happen on on phone. When i was changing the other phones it works fine. Nothing is lost. So i dont understand when i was changing the apple ID and icloud Id the information is lost. You know when you go to setting and you click iCloud and i saw that the contracts book was light on. Does that matter? Does that cause i lost my contracts?

    I don't think the iPhone is really designed for people to be switching from one Apple ID to another so when you do so you may experience problems.  You have two options on the iPhone for where you can be accessing contacts, from iCloud and the iPhone itself.  You can also pull contacts off of a SIM card but they are then stored on the iPhone and not accessed from the SIM card.
    You could try this;
    1. Go to Settings > iCloud
    2. Sign in to the Apple ID that you want the Contacts from,
    3. Turn "On" the Contacts slider and let it download all of your contacts
    4. When it's done downloading, turn the slider back to "Off" and you should get a message like this..."What would you like to do with the previously synced iCloud contacts on your iPhone?"
    5. Then select "Keep on My iPhone"
    Then after that you can then sign out of that Apple ID and into your other Apple ID and the contacts shouls still be there.

    Not without deleting it and then downloading it from the new Apple ID.

  • I changed my Apple ID to a new email address. I cannot get my Iphone and Ipad to recognize the new Apple ID.

    I changed my Apple ID to a new email address.  Now I cannot get my Iphone and Ipad to recognize the new Apple ID ... and I cannot access the old Apple ID because it does not recognize its password any more ... and I cannot change the password ... and there seems to be no one to ask about this.  Any help?

    I tried but it won't let me even access the old Apple ID.  It won't recoginze its old password and will not let me make a new one. (The site tells me it has sent an email to let me change the password but the email does not come.)

  • Why i cannot update my new apple tv 3g and i cannot watch you yube need help

    why i cannot update my new apple tv 3g and i cannot watch you yube, need help.

    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.

  • My iphone 5 will not update my app under my new apple id  keeps showing old id

    my iphone 5 will not let me update my apps with my new apple id..

    That is because apps are locked to the Apple ID they are purchased with. You cannot associate them with a new Apple ID, nor merge them to another account. If you cannot update with the old ID, then you will need to delete the app and purchase it with the new Apple ID.

  • I just changed my apple ID because I needed to change my e mail account. My new ID updated on all of my devices except for iCloud on my phone. My phone however will not recognize my new Apple ID for iCloud? Any suggestions?

    I just changed my apple ID because I needed to change my e mail account. My new ID updated on all of my devices except for iCloud on my phone. My phone however will not recognize my new Apple ID for iCloud? Any suggestions?

    To change the iCloud ID on your phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the new ID.  If you only changed your ID and didn't create an entirely new ID, you can choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.  Your data will download back to your phone when you sign back in.
    Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll before deleting the account.  Deleting the account deletes the photo stream photos from your phone.

  • Why do apps from the old Apple ID still show in the new ID's cloud?

    I set-up a phone with a new apple ID, but the apps from the old apple ID still show up in the cloud.  I thought that the phone was entirely re-set, but apparently, the old apple ID is in there somewhere.  How can I correct this?

    Delete the account, log back in with the new AppleID and password to reset the iCloud account in your iOS devices.
