How to change apple id for my iPad ?

Are you getting help with this yet? I have struggled with the same thing and worked with pieces and when I logged in just a bit ago, I tried something and all of a sudden the long list of non-updated apparent were all of a sudden being updated with my new,CORRECT, ID and I am so happy. I will come back here tomorrow or later today and see if there are others who're needing to know what I did.

How to change apple id for icloud?

how to change apple id for icloud?

From the knowledgeable Roger Wilmut:
You can't change the primary email address, the one you created when you opened an iCloud account (or if you migrated from MobileMe the address you log in with) other than by opening a completely new account.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621
However you can create three 'email aliases' - these are extra addresses, not accounts, which deliver into the same inbox as the main address.

It's actually quite a good idea to give out an alias address rather than the main one, since these can be easily changed should you get spammed.

How to change apple id for app updates

The user id that displays on my ipod is correct on the settings menu but when I try to update my apps, the apple id that displays (and wants a password) is one that I no longer use. How can I change the apple id for this one function to my current correct one? I've tried poking around all the settings and can't find where to change it. Once it is changed, I can then use my regular password. Thanks!

Hi jabsykes,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you may have downloaded or purchased applications from two different Apple IDs. To update those applications, you will need to sign in to the Apple ID that downloaded the applications initially. Please use the attached article for instructions on how to sign out and sing in to different Apple IDs on your iOS device.

How to change apple account in the ipad many times?(can't sign out)

How to change accounts!
I have multiple accounts not me but the whole family has apple accounts since we all are apples. Anyway everyone has a no credit card account except my dad. His account is synced in my sisters iPad. My dad changed the password so that we don't buy stuff the problem is we can't sign out of our dads account! I mean when we go to ipad:setting->store we already see that its already signed in my sisters account! But the problem is whenever my sister wants to update or download a free app it gives my dads email & wants us to fill the password! We already signed out!
We tried logging in via itunes store then syncing the ipad but nothing happened!
The apple retail store said after you submit the email of your ipad the only solution is to format it. But here is the big problem lets say we formatted it & after few days/months etc we wanted to buy an app we couldn't change the account to our dads account! Since we already are having trouble logging out of our dads account.
So please tell me how to change the account many times! Because I couldn't change it in the iPad nor in iTunes in my iMAC.

The apple retail store said after you submit the email of your ipad the only solution is to format it
Your iPad does not have an email address.
You will need to add a CC card to verify your account. The CC info can then be removed and the account used normally.
It would likely be easier to simply update the apps on the computer then sync the iPad.
iTunes can be authorized for all accounts then all apps can be updated at once.

How to change apple Id for updating

My daughter has already signed into the app store on a different user on my mac . When I go to download or update apps on my user, I cannot do this because her apple ID has saved to the app store for the whole computer. As I do not know her password, I am unable to update/download apps. I also cannot change the email address when doing this
Please can someone help me remove her apple ID so that I can put mine in?
Thank-you

It is not whether it is straight forward or possible, it is that this is the security system in place to prevent both piracy of software and hacking of accounts.
Whose computer is it? Who set it up? Whose account has Administration privileges on this Mac? The Mac, OS X, the pre-installed software can only belong to one person, regardless of how many of you have user accounts on the Mac. It is only this one user who can update the software.

How to change Apple Id for the cloud

Currently my Apple ID is an email address which I have been using for decades. In the near future the email server will be decommissioned and I will no longer be able to use it. In preparation of the change over I want to change my current email address to an icloud email address (@icloud.com). I have gone into the site to Manage Apple ID to change the email address but it won't let me as I get an error message that Apple ID must not use a domain owned by Apple. How can I change my Apple ID and Primary eMail Address to an @cloud.com account without losing all the info already on my current icloud?

First save any photo stream photos that you want to keep on your device by opening the photo stream album, tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing Notes with iCloud, email them to yourself as you will have to recreate these after changing accounts. Finally, if you are syncing any iWork documents with iCloud go to the settings for these apps and turn iCloud sycing to Off.
Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Keep on My iPad when prompted. (This will only delete the account from your device, not from iCloud. If your daughter is keeping the existing account her devices will not be effected by this.) Then sign back in with your new ID to create a new iCloud account, turn on your iCloud data syncing, choose Merge when prompted to upload the data to the new account. Then recreate any Notes from the emails sent earlier and turn on iCloud syncing with iWork again, if appropriate.
existing iCloud old email address with the old account. If you still want to access it on your iPad, you'll have to go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and sign in with the old account ID. This email will be fetch only, not push.
Once your iPad has migrated to the new account, if you also want to move your Mac to this account go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, then sign in with the new ID.

Hi Krebbo,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what the nature of your issue is. If you are talking about changing the Apple ID that your iPhone currently uses for services like the iTunes Store, you may find the following article helpful:

How to change apple ID for updating applications?

When i first bought my iphone a friend put his apple ID so he could show me how to download apps.
Although now i have my own ID and download apps with this one - every time i try to update some apps his email address pops up for which I do not have the password to. Is there a way to remove his ID from my phone completely and update my apps with my own ID? Any kind of help would be great on this

Noble Seven, I actually did that deleted everything and then downloaded them again but for some reason it still does the same thing when i try to update them.
I've noticed that the other email pops up even on the apps that i downloaded with my own ID...
Thank you for trying to help guys

How to change apple ID for itunes store

I recently set up a mobile me account and wanted to use this as my main apple ID, including itunes account. When I tried to change it in my itunes account it gave me a warning that the apple ID already existed, of course it does as Its mine! So appear to be unable to change the apple ID on my itunes account? Does anybody have a solution, I could open a new one but would lose my previous history etc..
I have contacted apple itunes support but they directed me back to mobile me support? So unable to resolve...

There is currently no solution that I can find, so far. It's a pain. I have the same problem as you. I had an apple ID that I used with Itunes, warranties etc... When I got my mobile me account it automatically created another ID.
So far there is no way to merge the two IDs.
May I suggest that you contact Apple Customer support and request that Apple make merging of Apple IDs available for those of us who want to do that.

TS4009 how to change apple id for icloud on an ipod touch

I recently had to change my email address on my apple ID can it will not let me change in on icoud on my ipod touch.. it's greyed out and I cannot click on it to change it.. Please help as I am in major need of a backup

If you want to restore to an iCloud backup you have to erase the device and go back throught the initial setup screens. If you have any data on your phone now that is not in the backup that you want to save you'll need to do that first. Then go to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content and Settings. You will then go through the setup screens as you did when the phone was new. When given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below). Be sure you are connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to finish.
After restoring, turn on your iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. in Settings>iCloud and this data will be synced back to your phone.

How to change apple ID on original ipad

Hi, I have a version one ipad, and have not used the itunes store for several years (after a flurry of initial app purchasing), and in the meantime my hotmail account was spammed and closed, sooo I cannot sign it, to to sign out so I can change to my new email address, This has made it impossible to download updates and apps, really appreciate your help!

Your email account may be closed for Hotmail, but it is still the user name on your Apple account.
Hopefully you remember the password. Try to log in to iTunes, go to your account info and change the email account right away.
If this fails you will have to call apple support.
