I want to change my username of Apple Support!

Hi,
I dont know how it happens Apple Support Comunities choosed me this random username
and i would like to change it to something i like and prefer !
otherwise I need to delete it
cheers

Has anybody ever had any success on this query from Apple? I have seen several threads about this topic, but not one solution yet. What does Apple prefer - that we rather create fake Apple ID's with dummy e-mail addresses, so that we can use those usernames? (Which is what this address is - the e-mail address will never be checked by me, but I used it since I did not like my previous username, and cannot change it...).
Also, can the posters please check the answers before posting: There is no way to delete an existing Support community account without deleting an Apple ID, and you cannot create a different user account on the same Apple ID. The answer os not helpful, similar to this post which only refers to the global site without any help.

Can I change my username on Apple Support Communities?

Hi, I was wondering if you could make a change in my username. I really don't like the numbers on the end and I would like it to just be my first and last name with a capital at the beginning of each name(ie John Smith). If an admin could change it for me, it would mean a great deal. I know you're not supposed be able to change your name unless you are an admin or operator but I just wanted to make a minor change.
Thanks,
Adam

The con would be if you have made any purchases in the iTunes Store or Mac App Store or use iCloud using your existing Apple ID, you'll have to keep track of two Apple IDs and their relevant passwords and remember which you use where. If you forget and start making purchases with the second ID, it can become rather cumbersome and confusion when it comes time to update apps or re-download content.
As to which of your proposed options is better, I don't have any strong opinion. Any difference is rather arbitrary and so your personal preference.
Regards.

Hello there, Confused Apples.
The following Knowledge Base article offers some step-by-step instruction for changing the email for your Apple ID:
Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
Sign out of iCloud, the iTunes Store, App Store, FaceTime, Find My Friends, Find My iPhone, and iMessage on each device that uses your current Apple ID for these services.
Go to My Apple ID.
Select Manage your Apple ID and sign in. Forgot your password?
Select Edit next to Apple ID and Primary Email Address.
Enter the email address that you want to use as your Apple ID, then select Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now. Didn't receive the email?
When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your new Apple ID email address and password. When you see a message that verification is complete, you can start using your updated Apple ID.
Remember to update the features and services that you use with Apple ID.
Learn how to use and manage your Apple ID.
Additionally, this article is helpful with what to do, after you've changed your Apple ID:

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

Please help me

I have this bookmarked as well from another post that gives detailed instructions on how to stop the emails. From here down is a copy and paste from that discussion ....
Actually there are three places to look
Anyway first click on your name to get to your homepage/profile. At the top there are three tabs one of which is Notifications, that's number one,. Next look at the right side of the page at the boxActions in there click Manage Email Notifications. Finally click Edit Preferences in the action box and click on Email Notification Preferences
I think that covers it all.

Where do I change my username for the support group?

where do I change my username for the support group? Thanks

If you are talking about these forums, then no, you cannot change your name - the hosts will only make an exception if there is a security issue. But, since you've not accumulated any points, simply stop using this one and create another one.

I want to change my username. the form went through when i was just seeing what was available

i mean my username in apple forums.

Sorry, but you can't. If you want a different name here, you'll need to create a new Apple ID and then log in using that ID.
Regards.

If I rename the home directory, will Time Machine back up all stuff in my home directory once again? My home directory is quite huge ~70% of my hard disk and so I will lose a lot of old back ups due to this. Any workarounds?
Yes. Time Machine will back up your home directory again.
Your choices are:
1) Leave the name as is, and you won't have to worry about the large back up for a while, or
2) If you are out of space on your current backup disk, buy another external disk, rename the user and home directory on your Mac and start a new round of backups, keeping the old one around until you no longer need the files,
3) Rename the home directory and let Time Machine delete the oldest of your backed up files as it runs out of disk space.
Have I missed any?

The only way to change your alias here is to create a new Apple ID and then create a new Apple Support Communities user account associated with that new Apple ID.
