Hi everyone,I'm a newbie and I'm glad to meet you all :)
My friends call me Danny,and I'm from Vietnam
First day here and I've already had a problem that I was unable to solve,so I really need your help :)
The thing is that when I bought the New iPad the shop's owner installed some apps for me.
When I got home, I installed some other apps,and when those apps need to be updated,I clicked the Update button and there was a pop-up window requires password,this is normal,but the account was the shop's owner email not mine. As a result, I had to delete the app I wanted to update and re-install it. It's so inconvenient! Anyone knows how to solve this prob? Please help me and thank you in advance :D

The only solution for you to do is to delete those apps that the shop owner put on it. In giving you the apps for the iPad, the owner was committing an act of piracy. Those apps are supposed to only be for his use - and he should not be putting them on other iPads. In doing so, he basically stole the apps from Apple/the developer.

To remain within the law, my suggestion is to, again, delete all those apps. Cause, now that you know, how could you keep stolen property, right?

Hello Danny! I'm new here too! So new, in fact, I don't even know how to start a thread or forum or... I don't even know the word... Anyway, could someone wash of this metaphorical goo of n00bishness off me?
EDIT: I'm on the iPad app on an iPad 3
