How to switch App Store account on MacBook Air and resolve photo issue?
I have a new MacBook Air using macOS Tahoe 26.2 and I have set it up and it is working fine. However, today I opened the App Store for the first time to check on any outstanding updates. To my surprise the App Store opened using my wife's Apple account and showing her name, complete with a picture of me! The outcome of this is that I cannot update any apps because they were originally downloaded by a different account – mine I assume.
There seems to be 2 problems here:
- The App Store is opening using my wife's account.
- The App Store is displaying photograph of me which can only have come from the logon page on my laptop.
I can find no way to force the App Store to open using my Apple ID and password and would be grateful for some guidance.
