Jan 18, 2013 4:38 PM in response to rachelle221by Arindam821,There is a chance that you had downloaded the app with old apple id, hence it doesnt allow to update and shows old apple id,however , in any case ,
->just start itunes in your pc
->connect your device to the pc after starting itunes
->it will ask for authorizing the device, allow authorization by giving the latest apple id that you have and the password.
->Then the updates will happen as usual and you should not have problem anymore

Mar 17, 2013 4:06 PM in response to gusknoellby GrumpyGator,settings/itunes and app stores/tap on apple id/sign out/then sign in with correct id
If you have content associated with more than on id, then you'll have to keep changing
It would be best to restore device, then set up with one id, preferably your own with your own content

May 21, 2013 5:50 AM in response to rachelle221by Idlewire,I restored a backup on my iPhone 4s at which point the wrong username appeared on when updating apps on my iPhone. In my case, deleting the affected apps and then re-downloading solved my problem.
What seems to have happened is that another user (who shares my Windows 7 PC) had apps in common with me. When I restored my backup, my iPhone assumed these apps belonged to this other user. So, deleting them and re-downloading from my iPhone worked.

May 23, 2013 8:27 AM in response to rachelle221by VirginiaBluebell,This is the solution that I found when I had this problem:
Update all account information. When you go to the app store, select "UPDATE ALL". (For some reason, this did not work with individual app updates.
When the screen pops up to login with the wrong address, press cancel. It will scroll you through all email address options associated with your account.
Unfortunately, this will only update the apps downloaded under THAT email address. All others, have to be deleted and re-downloaded under the new email address. -

Nov 13, 2013 1:47 PM in response to Earlybird29by rwing13,That worked great. You have to go into the Itune store and put credit card info in. But you shouldn't be charged for anything unless you buy something.
