When I put in the right password for my ICloud  account on my Ipad, it keeps reverting to another password.

I have an Apple Id and a password but the password is different on my Ipad and Iphone. When I reset the password on the Ipad and Iphone, it doesn't save but keeps reverting to an old password which is not the same as my current Apple password - so the computer and the Ipad/Ophone are not syncing. Any suggestions about how to get the right password to stay on the Ipad and Iphone?????

Settings > iTunes and App Store > Apple ID = Sign Out...
Then Sign In using the preferred Apple ID.
Note:
Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID

    Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then setup iCloud with your new ID.
    You can't change the Apple ID for your iCloud account, you have to delete it.

  • I have changed my apple id email address but i cant change the id address for my icloud account on my iphone? how do i do that?

    i have changed my apple id and password but it hasnt changed on my icloud account and i cant seem to chage it on my iphone. how do i change it from my old email id address to my new one?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

  • I registered the wrong information for my iCloud account--I misspelled and now want to change it.  Help is needed to delete the account and start anew.

    I registered the the wrong information for my iCloud account--I misspelled the account name.  I accidentally spelled blackberry instead of blackbird.  How can I change this?

    If you don't want to use an alias you'll have to create a new account as you cannot change the @icloud.com address once created.  You'll have to create a new ID, verify the ID, then use the ID to create the new account, and migrate your iCloud data to the new account.
    If you are currently syncing data with iCloud, begin by saving any photo stream photos to your camera roll as mentioned above.  If you are syncing Notes with iCloud, you'll also need to open each of them and email them to yourself so they can be recreated in the new account.  Finally, if you are syncing any iWork documents with iCloud, turn off iCloud syncing in your iWork app settings.
    Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted.  Then in Settings>iCloud tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom, set up your new ID, verify the email address you use to create it by responding to Apple's verification email, then sign in with the new ID to create your new account.  Turn on your iCloud sync settings and choose Merge when prompted to upload your data to the new account.  When you turn Mail to On you will be prompted to create your new @icloud.com email address.  Be carefull to type it correctly as it cannot later be changed.

  • If I change the password for my icloud account will it also change my apple ID password?

    the two passwords are the same now - If I change my icloud password does that automatically change my apple ID password or do I have to change it seperately?

    If you change the password for your iCloud ID, you have to change it on any services you use the ID for on your device.  If you use the same ID for purchasing, go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in using your new password.  If you use it for iMessage, do the same thing in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive.  If you use it for FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
    To change it for iCloud, you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in using your new password.  When you delete the account it only deletes the account and your synced data from yor iPad, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts, your data will be synced back to your iPad when you sign back in.

  • After upgrading my iphone 4S to iOS 7 every time the automatic backup on my iCloud account start it requests to verify my Apple ID password.

    Since I updated my iPhone 4S to iOS 7 every day when I put my iPhone in charge and it starts my backup in my iCloud account, it request me to verify my Apple ID password.
    Every day I have to put my password to make the backup start.
    I have enough space on my account to make the backup.
    I have an iPad 4, updated to iOS 7 too, but with it I don't have the same issue when backing up in the iCloud.
    I'm only experiencing this issue with the iPhone.
    I already tried to restore complitely my iPhone and turned off and on again iCloud.
    Thank you for your help.
    Regards

    An update - it was just taking too long to copy all the data again to the phone so I stopped the copy. Then I was able to complete the setup of the phone and most of the data was there -- just not the music I had selected. Not a problem, at least I can make calls.
    Next step will be to update the phone again (when I've sufficiently recovered from my annoyance) and add the music I want.
    Otherwise, I'm okay with the interface. No big problems.

  • How do i change the email address for this iCloud account

    I have just set up my new iMac.  When asked for an email address, I set up a new one instead of using the email address used for my icloud used in my ipad.  How do I apply the old email address to icloud on the imac so that my calendars and email synchronise on all machines?

    Sign out in System Preferences>iCloud then sign in with the ID used on your iPad.

  • How can I change the "Full Name" for my iCloud account?

    Hello,
    At some point in the past, iCloud started identifying me as someone else when I send emails. This incorrect name appears to be the "Full Name" setting of the email account, but when modifying the properties for the email account in Mail the field for modifying the "Full Name" setting is disabled, not allowing me to make any changes.
    Where is the correct place to change the "Full Name" setting for my iCloud account?
    Thanks,
    - Josh

    I believe it can be changed by going to https://appleid.apple.com/, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in with your iCloud ID, select "Name, ID and Email Addresses", then click "Edit" next to the name listed under "Your Name" and change it as desired.
    Also, if you are trying to change the sender name for your iCloud email account, you'll want to go to icloud.com, sign into your account, open Mail, click the gear shaped icon on the bottom left and choose Preferences, go to the Accounts tab and enter the name you want to use in the Full Name field and click Done.  Then quit Mail (Command-Q) on your Mac and re-open it.  Your new From name should now appear in the drop-down list when you compose a new email.

  • I need to delete an iCloud account off my iPad to sign in with another but I don't have the password

    Hi all, I have inherited an iPad from an ex employee of our company and I'm trying to delete his iCloud account so I can sign in with mine!
    Every time I try deleting it I get asked for his Apple ID password which I don't have a can't get!
    Are there any ways I can delete his account off this iPad an sign in with mine?

    Sorry, no way around Activation Lock. If there was, it wouldn't be much of a security feature. You need the original owner to disassociate it from their account or you have a very expensive doorstop.

  • I don't know why, but the email address for my iCloud account belongs to some random person! Is there any possible way to change it?

    When I logged into iCloud to check it out, my iCloud mail thing seemed to belong to some stranger. I don't really know what happened.

    What do you mean nothing.
    If it shows $0.00 then that's nothing, that's zero. If it shows truely nothing then you are not logging in with an account that had store credit. Or not logging in at all.
    Click on your name so the triangle appears, then click on Account for more details.
