iPad Air App Update Issues

Hello,

You will need to delete this application from your iPad then re-purchase it under your Apple ID.

Is this Apple Store app the one that accesses the various Apple Website product accessory stores locations?

You cannot delete the Apple iOS App Store app.

The Apple Store app is just a shortcut app to all of Apple's accessories locations found in different parts of Apple's Website.

You can still find all of this merchandise for sale by going into the various Apple website device tabs on Apple's main Website page and go into each Apple computing product category and you can find the Apple Store merchandise under all of the product category Accessories tab/icon/button.

You do not need the Apple Store app to find all of the merchandise for sale by Apple.

That's nice to know, thanks. I was afraid that app, if left un-updated, would not allow further purchases or updates through the App Store.

No, you can still make purchases without the app.

I do this all the time on older iPads, running older iOS versions, that no longer support the Apple Store app.

No problems.
