How do I change the email on my phone's icloud account to reflect a recently changed email change in my AppleID?

I changed the email information in our AppleID today. I figured out how to change most of the settings for our iphones, but when I click on icloud in settings, it still lists our original email address, and it won't allow me to change it. Is there a way to correct this? I'm sorry to be so daft if there's an easy solution that I'm unaware of!

Thank you for that information, and it shows me the incorrect email address, but it's greyed out and it won't allow me to tap on it to change it. Is that strange?

    How can I get the email for a rescue I'd to change my security questions

    You can't add or change a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) until you can answer your questions - if you don't already have one then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
    When you've got them reset you will then be able to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your question. If you have already changed the information associated with your current Apple ID (*not* created an entirely new Apple ID), you may find the following article about updating the various Apple ID services helpful:

    Click here for information. If you can't reset it through the method described in that article(it requires correctly answering two of the questions), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section. Nobody on these boards can reset your security questions or change your rescue email address.

  • TS3988 How do I get the email account that was in icloud?

    Hello, my manager handed me his phone off to resolve it and I restored and updated the iphone without knowing who was the account that was set up iCloud, and now I can not activate the phone. How do I get the email account that was in icloud that was configured on the phone? Starting email already know who is the account

    No one can give you that.  Ask your manager to contact the previous owner of the device.  They are the only one who can help you with this, either by providing the correct ID and password, or erasing the phone and removing it from their account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515.

  • ICloud accidentally set-up with erroneous email acct. How do I reset the email originally used to start the Apple ID? I'm stuck in a loop...

    Hi Apple friends! Here's my frustrating situation. When I got the new computer (2012 Macbook Pro), I tried to set up iCloud but accidentally input an erroneous email acct. I cannot access iClod because the email was accidentally input as "[email protected]", not "[email protected]". How do I reset the email originally used to start the Apple ID? I'm stuck in a loop, and not only cannot use iCloud, but I keep getting messages popping up to register my iCloud with a non-existent email...
    Help?
    Sincerely,
    Cole

    Have you tried to go into System Preferences > iCloud and entering the correct information there? You will first have to "sign out" of the wrong account and then log in with the correct information.
    If that does not work you should direct follow up to the iCloud for Mac forum.

  • No longer use this email account but how do you backup the email that is...

    No longer use this email account but how do you backup the email that is in the "example" folder, So that I can delete the account on my mail app?

    Not sure what you mean. Deleting a POP account only deletes the messages stored in the account’s mailboxes, not any messages stored in custom “On My Mac” mailboxes, if that’s what you mean. It’s not that Mail goes after your mail trying to delete as much as it can. It’s just that if a mail account is deleted, then its mailboxes cannot exist anymore...
    That said, instead of deleting the account right away, you can just disable it (i.e. turn OFF Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Enable this account), leave it that way for some time, and delete it only after making sure you didn’t miss anything while the account was disabled.
    BTW, if you back up your data, and the ~/Library/Mail folder in particular, you won’t have to worry about accidentally losing anything as a result of doing something like that...
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.

  • How do I stop the EMAIL sync between my desktop  and my laptop?

    How do I stop the email sync between my desktop computer and my laptop? Right now, the laptop is set to automatically load my email when I click on mail. I use my desktop daily; laptop only when traveling. The laptop is somehow set to receive ALL messages, so I get messages that are several weeks/months old. I want to be able to manually sync and NOT have all of the hundreds of old, already viewed messages sent to my laptop. However, I DO want my desktop to receive all of my old messages so that I can have them when I return from traveling. Thanks.

    Actually, your mail isn't 'synchronizing' in the conventional sense at all. And, you are effectively trying to make it do so manually at the present time. As you have discovered, this simply does not work.
    The only way that you can effectively address your requirements is to use IMAP—rather than POP3—technology. Using IMAP will allow you to readily control what is stored on the server, and will provide a view into that data store when you use your portable computer.
    While is is possible to use POP3 and set one computer to delete mail from the server and the other not to, this is potentially fraught with problems, and will not fully address your concerns.
    An IMAP option is available from such providers as Apple with .Mac, AOL with AOL Mail and AIM Mail, and Google with GMail. You can convert an existing POP3 account with such a provider to IMAP with little difficulty, or initiate a new IMAP account with such a provider and forward mail to it from providers who do not offer such an option.
