I want to change my email on my. Icloud to match iTunes and it won't let me select it on my ipad
I can't change my icloud email to match my iTunes email
Correct.
You need a second email as your emergency email address in case you forget iTunes passcode or account is hacked.

Need to change acct to Canadian from American but it won't let me without using up my balance of $1.27. There is no way to spend exactly this amount. I do not want to use a credit card. I have a Canadian iTunes card that I want to redeem now that I'm living in Canada.
If you can't find anything for exactly that amount then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will remove the balance for you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

I'm hoping to sync iCal via my four apple devices through the iCloud.
Unfortunately, I used two different Apple IDs when setting up the iCloud accounts on the devices.
How can I change the Aplle ID associated with my iPhone so that it's the same one used for my iPad and desktop?
When I go to settings and iCloud in the iPhone, the apple ID that appears is greyed-out and will not let me click on it to change it.
Any suggestions?To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the other ID. When you delete the account it will prompt you about what to do with the iCloud data. If you need to migrate it and merge it with the data in the new account choose Keep on My iDevice; then choose Merge to upload the data and merge it with the new account. If your data is already in the other account and you don't need to migrate it to the other account, choose Delete from My iDevice.

i I have changed my pw twice and it's still happeninf
I even tried to turn off iCloud
i have iPad 3rd gen
does anyone have a solution?
thanksI am having same issue on my iPhone 5s. Whenever i am trying login to iCloud from my device setting it's asking for apple id password & every time showing incorrect password verification failed but in fact the password is correct.
When trying to restore my iPhone from my PC iTunes backup it's asking to turn off Find my iPhone from the device iCloud setting. When i am going to turn it off from device iCloud setting it's asking for apple id password then a notification showing "verification failed, the connection to iCloud timed out.
I never faced this on any other iOS version other than iOS 8/8.0.2
Very disappointing iOS -
How can I change my email name on icloud?
I want to change my email address on icloud but it is grayed out and will not let me change it. Do I need to delete my account and set up a new one?
First you go to https://appleid.apple.com, log in, and change the email address on the account. Then on the phone go to Settings/iCloud, scroll down and delete the account. You will need to enter the password for the old email address. Then go back to Settings/iCloud and add it back using the new email address.

My send and receive list only gives me the option to send and receive from my email and my phone number is greyed out and it won't let's select it. I am currently in a foreign country but it was working a couple days ago here. What do I do?
Do you have another device with that email/Apple ID on it with iMessage activated? If not, you should be able to remove the checkmark for the email address. You cannot remove the Apple ID email address, but you can turn it off by tapping on it and that should remove the checkmark. Once that is gone, you are good to go. It will only use the phone number.

Hello,
My old emails address which I have used as my apple id for 10 years is being made redundant. I have changed the email address to a new gmail one and this is my new apple id. But my iMac has not recognised this. It keeps saying it wants the password for my old email address. I have seen some advice on these forums which suggest signing out of iCloud and then back in again. But when I start doing this it asks me if i want all the photos deleted that have not been downloaded onto the mac.
I have had an iCloud account for quite sometime and I'm afraid of losing everything in my cloud if i sign out and sign in with a new id.
Is this fear realistic?
I know I can change back to my old email, sign out and then sign in wight he new one...
Please help!This did not work for me. My old email account for iCloud still pops up on my screen every time I open my macbook. I've deleted it, reset it, every thing I can think of and it still shows up. I think six months of this is more than enough time to wait.

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. -
I want to change my primary e-mail address that I use with Apple ID - help guide says Select Edit next to “Apple ID and Primary Email Address.” But there is no 'edit' on that section there is on every other but not that one. Can anyone help?
You can create an alias @icloud.com email address within your current account that will receive email in your current iCloud inbox (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a). (@me.com addresses are no longer available as new addresses.) Just be aware that you cannot use an alias address later to create a new iCloud account or move it to a different account.
Also, even if you created a new iCloud account with a new ID, your existing purchases would not be lost. They are permanently tied to the original ID you used to purchase them. You can also continue to use the existing ID for the iTunes store; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iCloud. -
HT201303 I want to change the email you are sending confidential answer him
I want to change the email you are sending confidential answer him
first of, if you also don't remember the alternate email you have registered it to, the only available option is:-
you can only reset/update them (security questions) by CALLING the apple support team..
don't worry, they are very polite and friendly.. =))
all u need to do is verify their questions..
BUT
(1) make sure you don't signed out of your apple ID;
(2) prepare you apple device’s serial number;
and also,
(3) be sure you are connected to the internet, so that u can help the speed up the "verifying" process..
it only took less than 20minutes to have my security questions reset without losing the balance in my apple ID ^__^
hope this helps.. merry christmas y'all ~.~ -
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.
