After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.
You can manage your Apple ID here:

My email recently changed and so I updated my Apple ID to reflect my new email, but my Icloud account still shows the old email as the username on both my Iphone and Ipad and for the life of me I can't figure out how to change or delete it.

My email recently changed and so I updated my Apple ID to reflect my new email, but my Icloud account still shows the old email as the username on both my Iphone and Ipad and for the life of me I can't figure out how to change or delete it. My password doesn't work with the old email address. When I look for my old email address in the Apple ID support area it says that the ID doesn't exist. Help!!!

You have to go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated credentials. This deletes the account and your synced data from your device, but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a different account, your data will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

Sorry, I meant the letters look "faded" not faed.

HT204053 Can I use an icloud email address as the primary email address for an Apple ID?

Hi There
Can I use an icloud email address as the primary email address for an Apple ID?

Whenever you create a new icloud email it is an Apple ID, but if you previously had an Apple ID you cannot use the new email to replace the old one. You have to abandon the old accout and you will lose all the content you had with that account. But what I did was upload all my itunes to amazon cloud, these were the only purchases I had. I already bought books from kindle and I now rent movies from amazon instant video. Everytime I log in I use my icloud email and password. I just used it to sign in to support communities.
The notification that you posted about changing your Apple ID was present when I created my icloud email and made the change.

Double tap the Home button to bring up the multi-tasking bar...tap & hold any app until they all start to wiggle...tap the red minus sign to remove every app shown. Tap the Home button when finished. Try to delete the app now.

What version of iPhoto? How are you trying?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

My stupid husband put in the wrong email address for his apple id and I can't figure out to change it so that we can all sync?

My husband put the wrong email address as his apple id and now I can not change it?

What exactly do you want to sync? Ideally, each phone should use its own Apple ID to keep contacts, messages, etc. separate. You wouldn't want to share your contacts and have him accidentally delete one off of his phone which would remove from yours as well.
If you want to share apps, you can do that by having him log out of iTunes & App Store and logging in with your ID on that app only.

All of my music are frozen and I can't access it. How do I fix this?

I cannot access any of my music or movies. I had my ipod touch linked to itunes trying to edit my music, then it started to update and after just my music and movies weren't accessible. Everything else works and my music and movies weren't deleted. I just can't play them. Someone please me fix this.

Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync all music and videos and resync
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

My 4S died and I was given a new one. Now I can't get it to sync with my old info. I think I put the wrong email address for my apple ID, how can I change it?

My 4S died this week and I was told it could not be repaired, so I was issued a new one. During set up I could not remember my password, so set up a new one. I think I used the wrong email address, not sure. At any rate, now my phone and pad don't sync. How can I get this corrected? Thanks!

It looks like your printer isn't on the list of air print enabled printers. It'll still work, you just need to do some tweaking.
You can see if samsung has any apps to enable printing.
or
You can look into a third party app like Print n Share or Print Central.
Then you can print from your iPad.

I keep getting kicked out of my iCloud and when i try and sign in on my computer system preferences it will not allow me to do so-What is happening and why can't I sign in?

Very frustrating....My system preferences will not allow me to sign into my icloud, but when I come on here and use my apple id and password it works...what is going on? and why do I always have this **** problem?

All of my accounts display "Invalid account" and I can't access settings. How do I fix this?

This has been a problem for a while now, but it wasn't always like this. One day, it just happened! Everything else seems to work okay, and I can still read and write mail, but accessing account settings for any of them is broken.
I already followed the steps provided by Mozilla to "rebuild the global database" hoping it would help, but it did not. I attached an image of what my problem looks like, as well as the troubleshooting information provided by Thunderbird. I had to screenshot the PDF pages, hope you don't mind.
Please help me get things back to normal! Thanks in advance. :-)

Well, the Thunderbird team just released on March 20 an update to the beta channel. My problem is now mysteriously fixed! Don't know why...but maybe some obscure setting under the hood was reset when the upgrade went through.

An unknown error occured (13014) and I can't open iTunes. How do I fix this?

I was buying a song on Itunes and it had an error downloading. I quit Itunes and tried to restart it only to be greeted by this error.

Hi rachel.oberman98,
Is it possible that the dock icon is from an older version of iTunes? The these steps from this article -

Double-click your hard disk.
Double-click the Applications folder.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

How do I figure out the rescue email address for my Apple ID?

I can't remember my answers and I can't remember what my rescue email is how can I figure that out?

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
-If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
-If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.
-If you are not in the US, click http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 - Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
