Hi Pat
Did you see my long post to WAMUG I sent (date 03/12/2018 12.31pm) where I
referred to this about logging in etc.
The section I referred to it was here -

Pat for convenience it is not unreasonable to use your Apple ID and password as
your computer login name and password, (not wise for security) but in my
memory of using Apple products since 1987, I cannot recall Apple ever calling
them the same thing. They have always been different things.
Hi Pat, so sounds like you have one Apple ID with one password for that ID. It
will work for the App Store and iTunes music store and Apple iCloud. The Apple
ID could also be called a ‘username’.
To sign into your computer is a different username and password, which we
assume you have set up
Hi, Stephen and Susan,
I only have one Apple ID account! Had the same one for years.
And if you look at all the emails about this topic, it often happens that the
Apple ID and passwords for other things get called, generically, passwords.
This was something that confused me considerably when

Pat, how about taking one of your devices to the Apple Store so that they can
explain the nature of an Apple ID and why having two Apple IDs is an extremely
bad idea and an expensive mistake to make. We don’t seem to be able to explain
it in a way that you can understand.
Cheers, Susan.

Ronni did not say “multiple Apple passwords for different apps bought at
different times. “. Key word PASSWORD.
What she did say is “they have been purchased on the other Apple ID account.”
Key word ACCOUNT..

Thanks, Ronni,
Apple must have changed its procedures some time back, and I had never heard of
multiple Apple passwords for different apps bought at different times. If I had
known, I would have kept track of what I bought with which password. It is a
very complex matter, and, really, Apple
Hi Pat.
There is only ONE App Store.
It is the same one that you access with any device.
So there is no need for different passwords.

Hi Pat,
It’s not Apple stuffing you around.
When you changed your Apple ID password, I suspect you didn’t follow the
instructions to update your Apple ID on all your devices & Mac.
After you change your Apple ID or password, you normally need to update your
sign-in information with any Apple
Thanks, Stephen and Phillipe,
I have several devices plus my computer and they also all use the same
passwords. I got it sorted out this morning with a phone call from an Apple
person, but no explanation why the 2 different App stores don’t sing from the
same music sheet.
Oh well, I just hope
Hi Pat.
I got the same impression as Philippe.
I only have one password for my Apple ID.
Makes no difference if I am using my iPad, iPhone or Mac.
Sounds like you have multiple Apple ID’s for some reason ?

Hi Pat,
Sorry to read of your log-in problems. I do not know if you have one or
multitude accounts with Apple hence requiring different passwords for each
account.
From my perspective I have two iMacs and 1 macbook and 2 iPads all registered
under the One i.d. Hence when accessing Apple's App
