Apple-ID change the e-mail

Hi! I would like to use my alternative e-mail instead of my currently primary e-mail for Apple-id. How do I do this?

You should be able to try removing the email address as being an alternate email address by logging into the account via http://appleid.apple.com
You can then try putting it as your primary email address either via that same site, by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad and logging into it, or via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes. If you update it via http://appleid.apple.com or your computer's iTunes you might then need to log out of the account on your iPad by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in with the updated version so as to 'refresh' the account on it. If you use iCloud you might also need to log out of the account via Settings > iCloud > Delete Account and then log back in with the updated version.

  • For FaceTime, can you add an additional e-mail that is not your Apple ID e-mail?  Everytime I try to do this on my iPad it sends me a verification e-mail saying I am trying to change the e-mail address associated with my apple ID and wants me to verify.

    I am trying to add another e-mail address to FaceTime, but do not want to change the e-mail address associated with my Apple ID.  Everytime I try to add the e-mail address in my FaceTime settings, it send me a verification e-mail asking me to verify that I want to change to this new e-mail address for my apple ID.  I do not.  I just want to have an additional e-mail address for people to contact me via FaceTime. Does anyone know how to do this?

    You can have multiple addresses associated with your apple id. You will have to verify any changes before they can be added and this is done by sending you an email. This is to protect you from someone else makeing changes to your account.
    You can make any changes and view all your info here:

  • After my company changed the e-mail address, I had to change my Apple-ID. How do I update my purchased Apps after the change?

    The renamed Apple ID does not update all the Apps but comes up with the old AppleID, but that ID is not there anymore and neither the old or the new password is working
    On the FAQ pages I just find a long list of Apps, stores tc. that I have to update, but no explanation on how to do that.
    I do not want to buy all the apps again just because I had to change the e-mail address and because of that the AppleID.
    It is ok to remove the free ones and load them again, but the paid one?
    How is Apple handling such things?

    OK, after reading other and similar threads too, I found a solution myself.
    Thought to share it.
    On my iPhone, after the change was made at the AppleID site, I had to logoff from the old AppleID and then to relogon with the new/changed one. After that I could update all apps again

  • How to change the default mail server??? Please help.

    I need to change the default mail server to my yahoo account. When I had my PC this was easy but I cannot figgure it out on the MAC. I am in China and I need to inform my insurance company of some information or they are going to cancel a policy. When I go to their site for email contact what pops up is the apple email, which I do not have an account for and ofcourse does not work. Their email address does not show and I cannot find it anywhere so I need to change the default to my yahoo account. On my PC this was easy and when I went to a site that had a contact but no email address, my yahoo account would come up. I hope I am explaining this correctly. I really need to do this fast as the letter I got took some time to get here and I just returned from some field work so I have about 2 or 3 days to get the information to them. Thank you.

    John,
    This does not demonstrate anything for me, since it brings up a Compose window for Mail, with my preferred account as the From address. This happens whether I access with Safari, or with Firefox.
    The point that I am trying to make, is that in OSX, there is no way to have web mail access become the default mail method -- it only works with a true mail client, for POP, IMAP or .mac access on your Desktop.
    If you have the type of yahoo account that can be setup for POP access with Mail, then when you click, you can choose your yahoo address as the From address to send from.
    Of course you can insert the address in a new message with your Yahoo web mail, but I have understood you to want to have the message start containing the info from one of the pages on the site?
    See the discussion at the following link, for setting up a Yahoo account in Mail:

  • When I plug my i phone 4 into i tunes on the same computer that is used for the i pod touch it changes the e mail over to the i pod touch and i cant figure out how to get it back on the i phone account.  how do i fix this?

    Hi,  i need help.  When i plug into i tunes with my i phone 4 it changes the e mail account over to my daughters i pod touch account and i can't figure out how to separate the 2.  when i click on store,  it show up as my account but if i try to update an app or purchase anything it shows on the phone as her email and i need her password to do what i what.  it also puts her apps on my phone.  any advice would be appreciated.  thanks

    If you are being prompted for her Apple ID password when updating apps it means that there are one or more apps on your phone that were purchased with her ID.  (Apps and their updates are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them regardless of the settings on your phone.)  It's possible that you are inadvertently syncing her apps to your phone.  .  The only way to stop this is to delete these apps from your phone.  You may want to check which apps are checked on the Apps tab of your iTunes sync settings before syncing next time to be sure her apps aren't selected.
    To change the Apple ID used for purchasing, go to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in using the ID you want to use.

  • HT4864 How do I directly change the incoming mail server for icloud in Mail?  It's grayed out.

    How do I directly change the incoming mail server for icloud in Mail?  It's grayed out.
    I ask this because I have suddenly stopped receiving most e-mails in Mail.  I've found that my incoming mail server (p01-imap.mail.me.com) is different from what the Apple mail setup assistant recommends (mail.me.com), but I cannot change it because it is grayed out.  Any ideas?

    I'm afraid that AFAIK you've gone through the card. You could try Support, though I don't know how helpful they are likely to be.
    To contact  iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
    You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
    If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee.

  • Purchase order by e-mail: changing the e-mail subject

    Hello all,
    We are sending are purchase orders to the vendors by e-mail.
    I would like to know how can I change the e-mail subject to a subject of my choice (for instance the PO number, etc.).
    Thanks for your help,
    Sivan

    Hi,
    You can  change the e-mail subject to a subject of your choice by following way.
    If you want to send a purchase order as (external) mail, for example, to a
    vendor, you have to maintain the mail title in the condition record for the
    output type (for example in Transaction MN05) on the 'Communication method' tab
    page. Enter the mail title in the 'Text for cover page' field. You cannot
    maintain an additional mail text.
    Hope this will help u,
    Deepak

  • I need help with changing my e-mail. I just made this account today and I want to delete it or change the e-mail. Help would be very nice!

    Hello can you tell me how to terminate my account(DELETE IT!) or change the e-mail. I went to privacy setting and my e-mail was shown, but nothing about changing it. I went to profile settings and there was nothing about deleting it so any help would be highly appreciated!

    Deleting the iTunes account is not the solution as you will very likely lose any and all purchases ever made with the account.
    If you cannot find the option on the site, contact iTunes support.

  • HT3702 can i get apple to change the credit card billing procedures post delivery of the 3 items that i recently ordered that had been totally & safely  delivered to me

    can i get Apple to change the credit card billing procedures ( ie have them re-bill me for one total amount rather than them currently to have billed me on a piecemeal items basis?

    First, please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. The only people who will reply to your posts are we your fellow users. iTunes Support will never respond to posts made here.
    As to your issue, confirm with your bank that they do not block access from on-line services or otherwise have restrictions on with whom a card can be used. For some company cards, such blocks can be set up. If you confirm that no such restrictions are in place, post back and we'll go from there.
    Regards.

  • Changing the outbound Mail server?

    Are we able to change the outbound mail server in iphone 3GS? Currently I have Mobileme IMAP on my mac but all the mail is filtered via gmail. On my mac I have the ability to change the outgoing mail so that it looks like I am sending from gmail. On paper it looks like I use gmail, but really iam using Mobileme as a one stop shop. can I do this for my iPhone too?

    you need to check the smtp server in setting mailfor your particular mail accont.
    of course you need to have permission to use another server from the provider,some are free I believe.
