After changing my Apple ID, my phone still won't update the new email address.

I needed to change my Apple ID email because my school email is going to be deleted. I changed the ID on the computer, and verified it. I tried to activate the change on my phone under "iCloud", but the email is still the old one. Now I can't download/buy anything. What should I do?
Thanks,
Emma

Settings > iTunes and App Store > Apple ID = Sign Out... Then Sign In using the preferred Apple ID.

  • TS3988 Can someone please help me?   I have an Iphone 5 and Love it except for one thing. I changed  email address from yahoo to Gmail and updated it on my Apple ID at Apple.  Apple recognizes and accepts this change but Icloud won't update the new email

    I have an Iphone 5 and Love it.  Except for one thing;  I recently changed from ymail email account to a gmail account. I updated it on the
    Apple/ Itunes site and it does accept the change.  I can still access the APP store and Itunes. 
    However, sometimes I get a pop up box from Apple showing the old email address and asking me to sign in..... I hit cancel and move on.   But, now Icloud keeps popping up promting me to sign in and it shows the old email which I don't have anymore.... I tried signing in with the old info to clear it off screen of my phone but, it doesn't allow and I hit cancel and it goes away. only to appear later again....  This is so frustrating and annoying.    Is there any way to get the Icloud to update the email address with my Apple ID log in info--without having to delete stuff or lose things on my phone? 
    Please help?

    You have to clear saved password for this page:
    # Open you login page (where you have to enter username and password).
    # Right click on page and select '''Page Info''' form context menu.
    # On last tab ('''Security''') there is '''View saved passwords''' button, click it and delete all saved passwords for this page.
    # Also clear all related cookies (just in case) there is button for this next to first one.

  • My email address has changed and when I try to play purchased songs it asks me to authorize another computer under the old email address.  How do I play the music that I have purchased?  My account is current with the new email address.

    You may have already done this, but try de-authorizing your computer (through the iTunes:Store menu) and then re-authorizing it.

        Hi there T&P63385!
    Look no further! I have the answer for you! You can add a new email account to your android device by following these steps: http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=31401
    Now I do want to let you know that your phone has a "main" gmail account. If this "main" gmail account was the one you deleted it may be best that you reset your phone and activate it to your new gmail address.
    The reason I recommend doing this is all of your purchased application information is also tied to your gmail.
    Ensure your personal information is backed up (contacts, pictures, etc) and follow these steps to Hard Reset your phone:http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=31308
    Let me know if you have any other questions!

    I have an iPhone 4 and it's been receiving email kind of late, meaning if I make a purchase, at let's say Macy's on my phone, I won't receive the confirmation email immediately; my question is my iPhone maybe hacked? I read that that's one symptom, so if my phone is infected, how do I fix it?

    Alejandro,
    Send yourself a test message and see what the response time is.
    Is your e-Mail system a push type or a poll type.
    If it is a polling type, there will be a delay because there is a timed polling sequences (that you can control to a degree)
    In Settings/Mail look for 'Fetch' to see how it is setup.

  • If I create a new Apple ID, will my mail automatically change to the new email address For the new id?

    Also will the apps that I have not bought with my money from App Store but just downloaded, can I still upgrade them? And what about if I have some music  and apps which were not brought from my iPhone 5c which I am currently using, but from my old iPhone 3GS from another Apple ID , will they be transferred again like they did before onto my 5c?
    Thanks

    I set up FaceTime and Messages on four different devices with only one Apple ID. I used the exact method that is described in the video that AnaMusic has provided to you in the link in her response above.  That method worked fine for my family, but you can create new Apple ID's just to use for FaceTime and Messages if you like. Many users prefer doing that as opposed to adding new email addresses.
    IMO - using unique email addresses (like in the video) makes sense, because we (my family) all have different email addresses anyway, and it was very simple to add each family members email address to both apps and remove my Apple ID email address as the contact address on each device.
    BTW .... if you are using your Apple ID on both devices - your phone number should be the number that is showing in the settings - not you daughter's. Did you set up the Apps with your Apple ID?

    Go to setting on the devices and change the information
    Settings
    iTunes and App Store
    Account
    (Change account)
    Also settings
    Mail, contacts, calendars
    Account
    (Change account)
    Same for everything else that uses your email address.  Facebook, Twitter, iCloud, on and on.

  • I got a new e-mail address and I reset my iPod so it already has the new email address. I can't seem to change the address on my iPad or iPhone. Please help me change the address on all my devices!

    I got a new email address and I reset the iPod so it already has the new address. I can't seem to change the address on my iPhone5 or iPad. So please help! How do I change the address for my apple ID and icloud on all my devices? I don't want to reset my iPad and phone just to set new email address I can't do updates without the password and I have forgotten my password for my old email address. Please Help! Getting frustarted!

    If the old ID ("email address") is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • Corrupted original APPLE ID  and/or not properly linked to the new email format ID

    Please HELP!   My Apple ID has been "xxMyID " for 10 years and it was linked to my ".mac" email address.   The effectively worked the same when logging into the new mobile me, even after Apple forced the ".me" email address on me with the same ID.   Now it appears I have 3 seperate accounts and they are not linked.  when I bought an ipad I was forced to enter the new ID format in the form of an email address and now I am locked out and the system for my old Apple ID.  It will not send me an email using the password reset features. 
    xxMyID, [email protected], and [email protected] should all be the same account.  I don't want 2 or 3 mac accounts but somehow that appears to be what has happened.    Somehow all my iphone apps are under old original ID are not working  and I can no longer sign in.   Typical password recovery does not work.
    Please help.

    I am having the same problem!  My itunes, icloud and all my other apple accounts are fine and ive changed the password numerous times as when i try to update my apps it shows my apple ID as my user name and not my full address.  If you find an answer please let me know as I cannot for the life of me solve it :s

  • HT2731 I had to set up a new email address for my ipad, but the old one is still coming up when i have to update my apps, how do i reset to the new email address?

    I recently had to reset my apple id to a new email address, but when i try to update my apps, the old one is still showing up, how do i change it?

    Apps will always be tied to the account from which they were purchased and will always need to be updated using that account.

  • I can't use my password to open icloud. I changed my apple password and it still won't work with icloud

    I can't use my apple password to open icloud.  I changed my apple password and still can't open icloud on my pc. What can I do or what am I doing wrong.
    Thanks

    Sorry to ask but... are you absolutely certain you have entered your Apple ID and account password correctly?
    If you use the same Apple ID for iCloud and the iTunes store, see if you are able to log into the iTunes store from either your computer or your iPod.
