I want to change my email address!

HOW do I change my log in email address to my new address? I dlon't see anywhere to do that. I've been around and around the Apple site with no result. I need to change it for getting free podcasts from iTunes - my Apple ID and Mac Store are OK. W H Y is this such a formidable task with most sites? Don't some people change their addresses frequently for security protection?????

You need to contact Comcast, they will be able to help yout with that. However you are not being clear as to why you would like to change it.

I want to delete my icloud-account from my iphone 5 and then register again, because I want to change my email-address/account name. What would be the steps to follow? How do I make sure I do not lose any information stored on/in my iphone 5?

You would have to delete the existing iCloud account and create a wholly new one - you cannot change the @icloud.com email address of the one you already have. To make a new one, you will also need an new AppleID as any AppleID can only have one iCloud account associated with it.
Deleting the account will not delete anything off your device (if prompted for things like contacts, choose to keep them). You will have to sync everything anew with the new account as you cannot move your sync'd content, your old backups or anything else from one iCloud account to another. You will have to set up sync again and let it sync to the new account, and then make new backups to the new account as well.

HT5620 I want to change the email address to which all the reset security information (emails) go to. But I cannot see that email address in the list when I click on the 'Name, ID and Email Addresses' section.

How can I change it when I cannot view it on my account. I am not even sure how this got setup.

If you mean your rescue email address, it's in the Passwords and Security section, after you answer the two security questions.

Hello Embark2013 - Thanks for the help! If possible, could you or somebody in Apple-land explain to Apple that their system is IDIOTIC?! Changing an email address should be the simplest thing imaginable. Nobody should EVER have to consult a discussion group to learn how to do such a thing.

I want to change the email address for iTunes Store

I want to change my email address for the iTunes Store

You can update the primary email address on your account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and tapping 'view apple id' on the popup and logging into it, or by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com
If you do change it you may then need to log out on your other devices (tap on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store) and computers (Store > Sign Out menu option) and then log back in with the updated version

I want to change the email address for both the app store

I want to change the email address of both the app store & iTunes I created an iTunes account then bought a family pack @me.com so everything is not straight forward I have a gmail log in for both iTunes & the AppStore & then more than one Apple ID I have just increased my cloud storage but I am tired of having to use a gmail address for the App Store & iTunes especially since gmail would appear to be less secure that @icloud.com so how do I change this ?

Not a good idea. Apple content is forever associated with the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another Apple ID. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. The only Apple ID that can (re)download, update and authorize content for use on Macs, PCs and iOS devices is the Apple ID that bought it.
You can however change the email address associated with an Apple ID;

I want to change the email address used as rescue email for my security questions. But I can't remember the answers to the security questions and I dont have access to the rescue email anymore. Please help.

-If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
-If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

Want to change the email address I used to setup Icloud initiatally. Can I do that? If I change apple ID do I lose all information in Icloud now?

want to change the email address I used to setup Icloud initiatally. Can I do that? If I change apple ID do I lose all information in Icloud now?

You can change the login ID address, provided that it is not an @icloud.com, @me.com or @mac.com address. You will need to sign out on all your computers/devices and sign back in again with the new ID.
However, 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).
All is not lost, though. 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.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
More information on aliases here:

I want to change the email address on my account how can I do so?

I want to change the email on my account since I lost the password to that email account. Please help

If you have a new email address then create a new mail account for that email address.
In Thunderbird:
File > New > select 'Existing mail account'
or
Menu Icon > New Messages > select 'Existing mail account'
when creating the mail account, make sure you select the type of mail account you require...Pop or IMAP
more info here:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/automatic-account-configuration?esab=a&s=new+mail+account&r=0&as=s
If you have the same email address but want to change the server it uses.
If you currently have an IMAP mail account and you are wanting to close it, you would need to get a copy of any emails into Local Folders first.
Synchronise the folder for offline use, then in offline mode get a copy of emails into Local Folders.
If you have a pop mail account, the emails are already on your computer.
To change the server, but not email address:
you will need to know your server settings first.
Thenright click on mail account name in Folder Pane and select 'Settings'
select the Server sEttings for the account
or Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the account
Change as necessary
server name:
Port:
Connection Security:
In the left Pane, at the bottom Select 'Outgoing Server (SMTP)
click on 'Add'
create the new outgoing server entering the server details
username: = full email address
then click on OK
then select the account in the left Pane
at the bottom on the right side:
Outgoing Server (SMTP)
click on the drop down selectionand locate the new outgoing server.
then click on OK to save changes.

I want to change the email address I have for I tunes

Can someone tell me how I change my email address for Itunes?

Hi thomas,
Actually if I am getting it right, that makes it easier. You have your Apple/iCloud ID as an @me.com ID. You have your iTunes account using a gmail Apple ID. If that premise is not correct, then just let me know and we will continue to drill down. If it is right, then I would suggest the following:
Your iTunes library lives on your Mac, and you have built it using your @gmail.com Apple/iTunes ID. To be able to use that library under your @me.com Apple ID, you would need to do the following:
1. Go to the iTunes Store on your Mac, and if the @gmail.com ID is signed in, sign it out
2. Sign into the iTunes Store using your @me.com ID
3. Set up your Billing info
4. With the @me.com ID still signed in, click on Store on the menu at the top of the screen, and click on Authorize this Computer. This will authorize your newly created iTunes account to the Mac
5. You now have made your @me.com ID your Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID
6. On your device, sign out of the iTunes & App store, and sign back on with your @me.com Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID (Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on ID)
7. Go into Manage Your Apple ID and sign on your @gamail.com ID - change the password on that ID to match the password on your @me.com ID
Now you can hook up your device to your Mac, and sync any Music, Apps, or any other purchases from your iTunes library to your device.
Although you could also sign the @me.com ID out of iTunes and sign the @gmail.com address into iTunes and download music directly to your device, it is far easier to sync those @gmail.com purchases via a normal sync process. Here's why - once you sign on a different iTunes ID to your device and download using that ID, the device becomes associated with that iTunes ID, and you cannot associate a different ID to it for 90 days. So, to avoid any loss of usage for your new ID, it is just easier to sync any previous ID purchases directly via iTunes.
You can now purchase and download any iTunes or App Store items directly to your device (OTA) using your new ID.
With the passwords being the same on both IDs, you will save yourself a lot of annoyance going forward when you need to update apps on your device. Whether they were purchased under your old ID or under you new ID, it won't matter. You won't even have to pay any attention to which ID is displaying when you are doing updates...just put in the common password, and you are good to go!
I have an @me.com Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID that I have been using since I got my iPhone 4. However, prior to that, I was using a different ID. I can tell you that I have had a totally seamless transition from the one to the other by using the methodology outlined above. It's like my Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID has always been my @me.com one. I still go into my old Apple/iTunes ID to keep it up to date (password-wise) with my @me.com one, but aside from that, I don't use it for anything anymore. The email address and billing information is totally out of date on it. But it really doesn't matter since it is what I call an "Archived" Apple/iTunes ID for me now.
Hope this is what you are wanting to do. But as I said, if I have missed something, just post back and we will go at it again!
Cheers,
GB

I want to change the email address on my icloud account

The email address I am using at the moment will not be available much longer so I want to change the address on my itunes account (I can see how to do that) and also on my icloud account. How do I change the email address on my icloud account?

If your AppleID is a .Mac or .Me account then you can't change it. But it shouldn't go away.
If it is something else you can. Just log in here (https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/) and manage your AppleID. Click edit next to the ID and you should be able to simply change it.
Cheers.

I want to change the email address I registered with Firefox, so Mozilla sends me messages at the new address. How? Thanks, Curt Guenther, Memphis, TN

When Mozilla sends me their occasional emails, they use the address I originally sent them. I need to delete the old address and give them a new one to use to correspond with me. How do I notify them to change that email address? Thanks.

At the top of all '''Mozilla.org''' pages is your user name.

How do I change the name that shows up for my email account . I don't want to change the email address, just my personal name that shows who the email is from.

Hi There
My apple account was in my partners name , I have now changed it to my name .
The problem is my icloud email still shows up his name at the beginning of my email address. eg Jo Blogg ( [email protected] ) .
When I open up Icloud in browser it shows in the top right my correct name , but when I go into Account settings on Mac in the Mail it shows up my
partners name as the Full Name associated with the account . It doesn't give you the option of changing that name though.
I hope I have explained this properly and someone can help ?
Cheers
Lizzeee

Hey There I didn't need to change it as it shows my correct name in my icloud account. The problem is on my Mac where it still shows my Full name as my partners name.
For eg. if I send an email from "Mail" on mac and I use my icloud account then the name that shows up is my partners name when the email is received. If I send an email from the Icloud Mail box that I log into on my browser then the name that shows up when the email is received is my name which is correct.
When I go into preferences in "Mail" on my Mac to change my name, the name is ghosted out and doesn't allow me to change it ! ? It is here that it still show my partners name ?

I want to change my email address!
