Unverified email address used for Apple ID

Hi,
How does one remove a Apple ID from a iPhone 5s, which is registered with an incorrect email, and the email has not been verified.

You might try to see if you can change your security questions. Start here, change your country if necessary and go tomanage your account > Password and Security.
I'm able to do this, others say they need to input answers to their current security questions in order to make changes, I'm inclined to think its worth a try, you don't have anything to lose.
If that doesn't help you might try contacting Apple through Express Lane (select your country, navigate to iCloud help and enter the serial number of one of your devices)

I need to know how to change the identity (email address) used for the iTunes store as I no longer use that email

I need to know how to change the identity (email address) used for the iTunes store as I no longer use that email.

Settings > iTunes & App store.
Tap AppleID, sign out then sign back in.
The Apple ID is right everywhere else. I've synced the phone. I've reset it in Settings on the phone. I've changed it at Apple.
When you write, "I've changed it at Apple, this means you updated yoru old AppleID or you ceated a new AppleID?

Email address used for registration deleted

We purchased adobe acrobate pro 10 a couple of years ago. My secretary registered the software from her email address. She has since left the company and her address has been deleted. I have a new computer and can't download the software because the email address used for registration no longer valid! I have the serial numbers and license certificate. Can anyone help me.
Thanks,
Peter

I am not sure what your organization arrangements are but I would think you could recreate the email address so that it can be used. I know that I can create subaccounts for my own email service.
Aside from that, you might be able to download the trial version of the software directly thru the site linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

Found strange email address using my apple account for iMessage

Upon upgrading my iOS devices, I found a strange email account was using my apple id account for iMessage

Thanks Demo!
I know that last sentence makes NO SENSE WHATSOEVER. I was dozing off when I made this post. What I was trying to say was: "The frustration of not being able to uniquely identify which device is being used is driving me to drink!" Ha Ha
Thanks again for your input!

HT4436 If someone else has set up an ICloud account (that uses his name in the email address) using my Apple ID, do I have to change my Apple ID to open an account with my name in the email address?

If someone else has set up an ICloud account using my email address and Apple ID but has chosen his name for the mail name, can I get rid of his name in the [email protected] and put mine in there? Or do I have to set up a whole new acount with a new Apple ID? Will I be able to do that with his name already linked to my email address?

How did he manage to do this? - he would have to have known your password if he was using an existing Apple ID. You should change it immediately to something strong and unguessable. That will prevent him accessing the account or using the email he has set up (assuming he hasn't changed the password and locked you out).
You can't change the primary @icloud.com address once set up, though you can create additional addresses as email aliases: if he's given this address out you will get his emails but you could set up a Rule to trash them.
You might to better to create a new ID and iCloud account anyway. To do this you wil need a different non-Apple email address (you could use a free GMail one); or you have the option in the iCloud prefs pane to choose an @icloud.com address and make that the ID.

HT201356 Why can't I change my "Apple ID and Primary Email Address" to an email address using an Apple domain?

I am trying to use an Apple EMail address as my primary email address and I am unable to change it. I previously had another "nonapple" address identified as my Apple ID and Primary Email address. Now I apparantly can only change it to another "non Apple" related email address. It seems stupid to have to go to Google and use thier email address to make a change.
What gives.

Thanks Roger! I understand that it is an Apple ID already that makes sense. That "non Apple " address however, is compromised and I do not wish to use it anymore and will be shutting it down. I find it strange that I must only identify a "Non Apple" address as my "primary email address". I have an alias address on the account and I can sign in using it as my Apple ID. i don't see the Logic in forcing someone to use another email provider as your primary mail service. (I know I can set up alias's and use them under an Apple domain, but the primary email will still be there and I understand used for any account communications from Apple.) Any further comments on this situations?

Error when using using email address used for HP Store when signing up for ePrint

When signing up for ePrint I had to use a different email address to my usual because:
1) ePrint kept saying that my email address was already in use, or pswd was incorrect
2) When checking it wasn't the passord - using forgotten pwd (as I hadn't yet signed up for ePrint - surprised if this) then after entering same email I got a message saying the correct account was needed before the forgotten pwd function would work (catch22). I would have at least expected an email to come through regarding pwd to that email - mine or not.
I've now had to use another email address to register for ePrint, which is annoying.
Any assistance to re-align to one email (and maintain integrity) greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi msmale,
Do you have a Snapfish account? If so, (or even if you’re not sure) try logging in with the Snapfish icon below the Sign in Button. If you do not know your Snapfish password, you can select “forgot password” and an email will be sent to you to reset your password. Once you reset your password, go back in to the ePrint Center and try to sign in with this new information.
I was an HP employee.

Having trouble changing my email address used for discussions subscriptions

The address for replies to threads I've started is an old address. I can access it, but it's a lot of trouble to do so.
I've tried to change this address to another, more convenient one, but the change doesn't take. It's been a couple of hours since I first tried.
Both times I've clicked on the save changes button, but the change hasn't been made.
Help, please.

Try removing the Apple cookies in your browser, make the change again, hit save and see if that works.

iTunes Music Store Customer Service: Change your account name or email address

HT204053 I have an iPhone 4S and the new Apple TV, both setup with my email as the Apple ID. I gave my wife an iPad 3 and set it up using her email address as the Apple ID. Is a second iTumes Match subscription required for her to use our music from iCl

I have an iPhone 4S and the latest Apple TV, both setup with my email address as the Apple ID. I subscribed to iTunes Match so our music could be played from iCloud. I gave my wife an iPad 3 and set it up using her email address as the Apple ID. When I try to turn on iMatch so she can play our music from iCloud on her new iPad it tells me that she needs a subscription to iTunes Match. Is it Apple's intent that we would need two iTunes Match subscriptions? If not, how do I accomplish what I want to get done?

The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
and the iTunes Match services.
(I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
and
iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

I would like to get rid of the email I use for my Apple ID, but am unable to set me .me email address as my Apple ID. Is this true?

Before I get my new iPhone 5, I would like to know if I can drop my email address that I use previously for my Apple ID and use my @me.com email address. Is this possible?

I have two Iphones with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID. Will that cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

I have two Iphones 5 with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID account.Both are using IOS 8.
I would like to set up a new Apple Id for one of the phones and remove it from the old account.
If I do that, can I move all of the purchased apps and songs to the new Apple account?
Also, will sharing one Apple ID account with two devices cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

Sharing an iCloud account between two devices can be done without causing issues with iMessage and FaceTime, just go into Settings for each of these functions and designate separate points of contact (i.e. phone number only, or phone number and unique email address). While that works, you'll then face the problem where a phone call to one iPhone will ring both if on the same Wi-Fi network -- but again, that can be avoided by changing each phone's settings.
Rather than do all that, don't fight it -- use separate IDs for iCloud. You can still use a common ID for iTunes purchases (the ID for purchases and iCloud do not have to be the same) or you can use Family Sharing to share purchases from a primary Apple account.

Can I use my newly created iCloud email address as my Apple ID?

Hey,
I know there have been loads of post regarding iCloud and account issues. I was wondering if it was possible to use my newly created iCLoud email address as my Apple ID and its primary address. I had a hotmail account as my Apple ID before signing up for iCloud. For me it's purely cosmetic and I want to retire that hotmail address.
Thanks
Peter

this has been really bugging me as well, i dont see why we cant do this.
if you create a new apple id you get the option to use a free icloud email as the apple id, but old users are stuck?
