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 Store, the one identity and the one password work at all times. Not being an expert in your particular situation, I wonder if you are registered with Apple under two different identities, hence the need for different passwords etc? Or else I have misunderstood the problem.
