HT201342 I would like to transfer an icloud email address from one apple id to a different apple id.  Is this possible?

How can I transfer an icloud email address from one apple id to another apple id?

It isn't possible.  If you need to use a different iCloud account with a different ID as your primary iCloud account, you can still set up your other iCloud address as a secondary account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, signing in with your ID and turning Mail to on.  It will be fetch rather than push email, however, as push is only supported in the primary account.

  • I would like to change my icloud id associated with my apple id. is this possible

    i have been using my apple id for past few year now. when icloud was launched i had created an icloud mail id which is associated/linked to my existing apple id. i would now like to change that icloud id and associate a differed icloud id with my apple id. how can this be done.

    It can't be done.
    If you want a totally new iCloud account/ID/email address it has to be done under a totally seperate AppleID.

  • HT2623 I would like to change my iCloud email address.

    I would like to change my iCloud email address but don't know how.

    You can't change it. To get a different address you have two options:
    1) Setup a whole new iCloud account under a different AppleID
    2) Setup an email alias within your existing account: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

  • HT201342 I'd like to change my iCloud email address or create a new one, how do I do this?

    I'd like to change my iCloud email address or create a new one, how do I do this? I'm starting a new business and I've not really used my iCloud email address, I'd like to change the name to the business name. Can I do this? If so, how?

    You can't change an iCloud email address.  You can create an alias address to use that will receive email in your current iCloud inbox, but it will still be an @icloud.com address.  If you want to do this, this article explains how to create an alias: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.  Note: once you create an alias address, you can't use it to create a new iCloud account, move it to another account, of reactivate it should you ever delete it.
    You should also be aware that iCloud is designed for personal rather than business use, and as such, there are limits place on iCloud email accounts as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4863.

  • I'm getting married and would like to change my iCloud email address or create another one

    i'm getting married and would like to change my mobileme/icloud email address to my new name. i've tried to create alias but it keeps saying cannot save address at this time? any tips? can i have 2 icloud email addresses?

    You can change your details at the address above (you can't change your ID if it's a me address).
    You can of course create a new account at any time and add it as a secondary to your existing account or use it as a primary account and add your existing account as a secondary account.

  • HT4759 I'm getting a lot of spam in my icloud account and would like to change my icloud email address, how can I do this?

    After having a mac.com email for nearly 10 years I fell for a scam email and now am getting spammed daily in my email account.  I use this email account for everything and would like to either block the spam emails - although that's hard since they change their email address daily - or just get a new icloud email address.  I've researched this and have not found this easy.  Any suggestions on how to change my icloud email account? Keep in mind all my devices are connected through this email including iTunes.  Any help is appreciated - thanks!

    To get a new iCloud address you would have to create a new iCloud account and migrate your iCloud data to the new account.  If you want to do this, go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, and when prompted about what to do with the iCloud data choose Keep on [My iDevice].  Then set up a new iCloud account with a new ID, turn you iCloud data syncing back to On, and when prompted choose Merge to upload your data to the new account.  When you turn Mail to On you will get a new @icloud email address (@mac and @me addresses are no longer available).  Once your data is in the new account, you can just delete the old account from your other devices without saving the data on the device, then sign into the new one and the migrated data in the new account will be synced back to them.
    If you need to, you can change your iTunes ID to this new email address.  This guide explains how to change an Apple ID name, but you can follow this and edit the primary email address instead to change it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40.

  • HT204053 how can i move an icloud email address from one ipod to another?

    Hi
    My kids have ipods and wanted icloud activated.  Foolishly I set up an icloud email account but used my son's name on my daughter's ipod.  How can I switch the icloud email account to my son's ipod?
    Thanks,

    I don't really understand iCloud, but I have an Apple ID since both my kids are underage (8 and 11).  They share my Apple ID, but have different Ipods.  Can/Should I have separate iCloud emails for them?  To recap, I have 1 Apple account, but have 2 kids, a boy and a girl.  How do I have separate id's for their individual ipods using icloud when I have one Apple ID?

  • I would like to change my icloud email address but do not know how

    I can not open another account because linking email.
    The lady in the shop created the email but its not one that I can remember or like, please help to how I can change this-thank you

    Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change the address (short of creating an entirely new account).
    However, all is not lost. You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.
    More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

  • How do I transfer my iCloud back up from one apple id to the other?

    I bought and used my phone under my parents apple id, now that I've moved out I have created a new id under my name. How do I transfer all the backed up photots on my iCloud back up to my new account?

    - Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign in with other ID. To update apps purchased with the first account you will have to log into that account.
    - iTunes purchases are permanently locked to the account that purchased the.
    - There are also other items on the device that are associated with the account such as iCloud account and where you can be reached for Messages and FaceTime.

  • Why can't I use my iCloud Email Address as my Apple ID?

    Why won't Apple allow us to use their own @icloud.com domain for an Apple ID. This has upset me since the inception of MobileMe; it makes perfect sense that many people would prefer to use their iCloud email address as there Apple ID. We've all had MobileMe since day one, which is now iCloud; it's been several years, and I still can't do it. Having to frequently log in with an individual Apple ID & Individual iCloud account creates so much confusion, especially with my wife and parents. 
    I know this is an age old complaint, but it doesn't make it any less relevant. Is there a special way to change my existing Apple ID to my existing iCloud email address? If not, then why won't Apple allow it?
    Please don't refer me to this article Change your Apple ID.

    submit feedback about this so hopefully it gets changed https://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html

    My iCloud email address and my apple ID are different. I would like to change my iCloud to be the same as my apple ID. However I don't know my iCloud password and don't use the email address it belongs to. When I try to change the password, apple brings me to a page to reset my apple ID password (which I know and don't want to change). I have even tried to delete my iCloud account completely to start again but am not allowed without the iCloud password (which I don't have) there doesn't seem to be a place to change the email address of iCloud. What can I do?

    This is the answer that I had expected, so in this case you could only change your gmail.com address to another providers email addres e.g. outlook.com, yahoo.com, etc., but you won't be able to change the gmail.com address to a icloud.com email address. Apple just won't let you do that.
    Your iCloud account with @icloud.com email address and you Apple ID with gmail.com address are already connected and as I said before, Apple just let you merge this two IDs together.

  • HT2623 I would like to change my  "@me" email address and keep my apple id as is

    would like to change my  "@me" email address and keep my apple id as is

    You can't change and @me.com email address.  You can set up an @icloud.com alias address to use that will receive email in your current inbox, but you can't get another @me.com address at this point (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a).  Just be aware that you can't later use an alias address to set up a new iCloud account, transfer it to another account or reactivate it should you ever delete it.

  • I have an email address that was used on one Appleid account and I have now created a separate Appleid for another device. Is it possible to transfer that icloud email address to the new Appleid account?

    I had multiple iPhones and iPads associated with the same apple account and I have now created a separate account for two of them.  The question that I have is whether there is a way to transfer the icloud email address to the new account?

    Welcome to the Apple community 1960gmd.
    Once an iCloud address is used for an Apple ID, you can't use it for any other.
    Why would you want to use another Apple ID if you already have the address you want to use in another.
    If you want your email on all devices but use a different ID for iCloud add it as a secondary account at settings > mail, contacts, calendars and just enable mail.
