Google play, wrong account. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

I have two Google accounts that I use on my phone. One is just used for purchases and the other is for a personal email. So my issue is I bought this app to unlock the full version under one account, the one I use for my purchases, but to do this I had to remove my personal email account. After adding that account back, the app tries to use the Google play account I just use for email and says that I need to purchase the app to unlock the full version. Anybody have any idea how to fix this without permanently removing one account?

Why not just remove the email account from the phone and use the paid account for your phone, launch the Gmail app and then add the email account. That will pretty much do what you're wanting.

After readding the account it asks me to repurchase my iap. Somehow it defaults back to the other account as the default and since I purchased it on the other account it doesn't verify that I've bought it.
So far I've viewed a few threads with similar issues, but no solutions. I've found one, but it requires root. Remove the account, buy the app, make a tib, add the account, and then restore the tib
I don't use the Gmail app anyways, but I have had some past purchases on my other account that always end up having the apps trial period expire and say I don't own the app.

It sounds like you need to delete both accounts, along with the purchased apps and then only add the account you buy apps pin back to the phone and reinstall your apps. You should probably clear all Play Store and Google Services Framework data.
Then if you want the email back add it in only the Gmail app.

Yeah, but like I said I keep having issues with power amp when I do it that way since I bought that a long time ago on my old DROID on that account. It keeps defaulting back to trial. I think this case is unique since it was an iap. Every time I add that account back it gets reattached since I initially downloaded off the dummy account. When I couldn't get the account to change for the purchase, I deleted my dummy Gmail account and bought it. I guess I could just cough up money and buy power amp again lol.

Well the way I understand is you are adding them both to the phone instead of just adding one to the phone and then going in Gmail and adding the email account there.
If I am wrong maybe you need to contact Google and explain the issue and see if they have a fix.

Yeah, but what I'm saying is I need both added otherwise power amp always results back to the trial app stating they can't verify my license. Anyways, the tib method worked for me.

what happens to Apps after change Gmail address?

Hello, I recently decided to change my Gmail from a immature one to a more professional one, I wonder if there a way to get all the paid apps from the my previous Gmail account to the new Gmail account? I don't want to paid for all the apps again just to use them on my new gmail account.
Thanks.
No I don't think you will, there might be a way to swap Google checkout emails which might do it but....

I ended up paying all my apps again... oh well
you could have set up a secondary e-mail account under accounts on your phone for this. it would allow you to use apps from one while e-mailing from the other
Should've waited xD That sucks

[Q] Arrange payment with second account in Play Store

Dear all,
I used my gmail account to help a friend setup his new phone.
Then he added his own account to the phone afterwards.
Now, he wanna buy apps with his own account but it seems that the Play Store only allow him to make payment with my account.
Is there any method to do that? Or he must reset his phone to do so?
Please kindly comment. Thanks!
any idea please? thanks a lot
Just tested this a few minutes ago: simply add the new account (his account in this case) and it should default pay with this. If not, click menu in the play store and choose accounts and choose account here. Hope this helps.

Issues buying applications from 2 different accounts

Hello community, I am facing big issues with my main account that I use to buy my applications on Google Play. Recently I had to open a second account because Google wasn't able to process my credit card using my first account.
I've been sending emails to the creators of the applications that I bought with my main account to see if we can make a transfer of the applications to my second account, the answer was that I could get a refund within my first account so I could buy again the application from my second account.
The issue I'm facing right now is that whenever I place a purchase from my second account and I reinstall the application my smartphone will try to get the license from my first account instead of getting the license for the application from my second account on Google Play.
how can I fix this?
I've erased all trace of the applications from my first account, and yet, despite the fact that I have been getting refunds from the creators, I can't get the new license from Google play within my second account.
Help me please!

[Solved] Go SMS Pro lost premium features

I just recently upgraded my phone to cm12 lollipop and after reinstalling all my apps, I discovered that Go SMS Pro had lost the premium features that I purchased last year. While waiting for a response from their support, I figured out the issue - I have 2 google accounts on my phone, and while I did connect it to the correct account when it asked which account to use, it still was associating to the wrong one. You can see which account its associating with (if you don't have premium features) when you go to re-purchase the premium features. Before paying, it'll confirm payment option and lists the email address for the google account you will be paying from. Once you see it, you can back out without paying...
To fix it, I had to remove the incorrect google account from my phone in Settings -> Accounts -> Google and then make Go SMS recheck for premium features purchase. A reboot might do this, but I didn't do that so I don't know. Uninstalling/reinstalling Go SMS might do it as well, but again I didn't do that so I don't know. What I did was opened Go SMS and then went to Settings ->Ad Block. Then selected the exact same package I already purchased and then clicked the pruchase button. This forced Go SMS to check the only remaining google account on my phone for purchase options, which is when it saw that it was already purchased and simply activated my premium features. It never asked for payment method or confirmation, and a charge never hit my account (besides the original one from a year ago). After the premium features were activated I added the other google account back on. In the future, I'll probably wait for go sms to be installed and used before putting the second account on my phone.
Hopefully this will help someone else out, since it seems from a google search that people aren't getting support from the Go SMS dev team on losing their premium features.

[Q] In app purchases not staying on phone

Hi,
So I purchased a couple in app purchases (upgraded to premium/no ads) on my phone. I used one google account, let's call it google account A. When I go to the app again, the apps ask me to purchase yet again and when I press buy it sends me to google account B. The apps (Reddit now and Muslim pro) only become premium when I remove account B from my phone. Once I re-add B, they go back to their free versions. I have tried removing both Google accounts and then signing in with A and then signing in with B and it'll become free.
I'm not sure if I'm making sense, in short the apps are paid versions if only google account A is on my phone, if both accounts are on there the apps go back to the free version.
How do I fix this? I need both accounts on my phone!
Thanks
