Is it possible to migrate a bluemix app from one person's account to another person's account?
One of my teammates is leaving the team. We will need to migrate the app from his account to an existing member's one.
You can rebuild and redeploy the application to a different space, just change the target space and organization that you want to target. Also make sure that you have the needed services deployed in that new org/space.

I commissioned a dev on upwork to build my app for me and release it into play store and app store, the agreenent was that I own the code but the dev has been using his own signing keys,etc.
Do I need to create my own signing keys to put into the code? Or do I need to be doing this myself?
Should I create my own Play account? Can I get my dev to release it into my play account?
What else do I need to replace to make it mine so I dont have to rely on that dev to make changes down the road?
Anything else I should worry about?
In order to be owner of your own code and be completely independent for future releases with another developer you would need the following:
Your own account on the App Store / Play Store, so you can manage developer's access when they do the release of the app, but you keep the account and full admin access and they can't temper with the app itself once released.
Git (github, gitlab, bitbucket or any 3rd party provider) account and repository to which you give access for the developer, so he can commit code of the app. This preserves the history of his work + you can manage multiple people having access on the same codebase. Also already pushed code can't be lost on his local PC.
Other than that all accounts that are needed for 3rd party services also need to be created by your own account. An example would be Firebase console account or google account to access it's API for geolocation or any other 3rd party...
Regarding keys...all keys that are generated during the development time serve for that development period, and they can be changed later on when new developer comes onboard. The developer can share them with you, so you too have access to it all, but that's not something that can block your action on the account/application at any point when you break up the contract for any reason.
You should own your apple and google store account and signing key for every app released on the stores.
Of course you have to own the code but if you want to publish your app the code needs to be built and get signing and be uploaded on the stores.
You could make your developer in charge in building, uploading and getting feedback from apple or goolge store team or customers
The signing key do nothing changes in your code. it will be used only when build your app and devlier to the stores and somewhere else.
Our main Azure DevOps Organization is linked to our Azure AD. We need to invite customers to specific projects as stakeholder only, and with this, they are added as external users in our AD. We found that within a customer project also, all other external users are visible, e.g. via mention with # anywhere in the text or assignment drop-down, although these do not have access to that project. Our only workaround so far is to create new non AD linked customer specific organizations, but this is really not the right way to go (licencing, management etc.)
Is there any option to prevent this and to restrict visibility to only those users, which are part of a project (or planned)?
I tested and found the same issue as you said. It is by design, you can raise a problem in the Developer Community
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/spaces/21/index.html
Besides, since there is a workaround that works now, continue on this basis. You can create different AAD for the customer specific organizations, then add the customers to these AAD. Thus, these users will be invisible because they are in different AAD organizations.
Is it possible to migrate an app from a business manager to another?
We develop an app that required business verification and we associate it with a sandbox business manager, instead of the real one.
Now we want to correct this error and associate the app with to real business manager, but there is an error because the app is owned by another business manager.
I saw that in the wrong business manager it is possibile to remove an app, but what will happens? Will the app stop to work? What's the right migration procedure to avoid service interruption?
In Watson Studio, I can navigate to the Project Settings and add an associated service:
This appears to only let me add a service from the same IBM Cloud Organization and Space that the project belongs to.
Is it possible to add a service from another users IBM Cloud Organization and Space? If so, how? Note that I want to remain in my own IBM Cloud Organization and Space with the Watson Studio Project.
I was able to successfully add services from different spaces in my account:
I was also able to successfully add a service from another account by using the menu in the upper right corner:
This way my Watson project has services from multiple accounts.
If you wish to remain in one account (with your business partner scenario), you could set up a permissioned space or org in an account and use that. Or you could have two accounts, and set up the permissions so you have access to one space in the second account which has the service that you want to use.

I'm part of a GitHub organization developing a FOSS project. I'd like to run CI tests on Windows using AppVeyor. Currently I see my own fork of the project, and some other forks from people who have named me collaborator in GitHub. I don't see the upstream of the project, though. Apparently me being an administrator of the GitHub organization isn't enough to offer access to it in AppVeyor. But probably setting this up under my account would be the wrong approach anyway. Probably this should be under the name of the organization.
Towards that end, I'd like to have an AppVeyor account for this organization, with suitable permissions for its members. Reading http://www.appveyor.com/docs/team-setup it sounds as if AppVeyor could distinguish between users (with unique email and password) and accounts (to which projects belong), and a single user apparently can belong to multiple accounts while one account can have multiple users with different roles. In that sense, I'd like to create a new account without creating a user for it. Instead I as an existing user, identified by GitHub login, would like to become the first administrator of this new account, and ready to change settings and add more users. How do I do this?
You can't create a new account without a user. Just use some your email/password to create an account, then add existing user as collaborator.
