How can I resolve Apple Account association issues on my iPhone?
iPhone 13 Pro Max running iOS 18.0.01
The full warning which I just got when updating to iOS 18.0.1 is:
This Device is Already Associated With an Apple Account
If you turn on Automatic Downloads with your Apple Account, you cannot auto-download or download past purchases with a different Apple Account for 90 days.
The choices are: [Cancel] or [Transfer]
I purchased my iPhone from a friend who is "Apple knowledgeable" and he swears he went through all the steps Apple recommends before selling the iPhone to me but to me this alert would seem to indicate that the iPhone is in some way still associated with his Apple Account and I have no idea what to do or whether to click on [Cancel] or [Transfer]. Assuming [Transfer] would transfer the iPhone to my Apple Account, this would seem to be the appropriate choice but I welcome advice as to whether that is the correct choice.
Many thanks for any assistance.
