Apple ID on iPad and iPhone problems

I changed my Apple ID but my iPad nor my iPhone 5 won't let me log out of my old account. I tried erasing the old account on my iPad but it won't let me because I have to turn off locate my iPad, which I can't do without entering my old password(doesn't work because it doesn't exist anymore). Even though my iPhone has my new account info saved under iCloud it still asks for my old email and password when I try to update apps. I've also tried resetting my iPad and nothing changed. Please help!

Your response fixed the problem on my iPhone but not my iPad. I updated my Apple ID but cannot delete my old account on my iPad because I cannot turn off "Find my IPad". I do not have access to the old email so I cannot change the password, what other options do I have?

Using a hybrid of the same apple ID for iPad and iPhone.

Hey everyone,
I'd like to be clear and hopefully someone can give me an accurate response as soon as possible.
So, today my sister gave birth (Hurrah!) and she has an iPad 2 that i got her for christmas.
Long story short, my mom is in the same hospital as my sister in the emergency room since she had a heart attack/nervous attack and had to be there for testing. -- Thing is, i want her to Facetime me with an alternate email from my iCloud so she's able to see her grandson while i'm with her.
Question:
Yes, or No: Can we use a hybrid of the same apple ID for both iPad and iPhone?
(Hybrid implying the use of iMessage/Facetime with an alternate email and not my cell number or primary account email.)

So once that's done, that'll be it?
Cause she has one of my alternate emaisl currently listed on the iPad (and i unselected those on my iPhone) and it seems that it's not registering as an iMessage when i try to send her a message via my iPhone.

How do you use one apple id for iPad and iphone

We have an iPad, four iphone 3gs and a new iphone4. We use one apple Id for each with iCloud. Do we need a new apple Id for the 4gs? Also how do we share the iPad between the iPhones for music & apps. Thanks.

Should we use same apple id for ipad and iphone

i had bought a ipad, should i use the same Apple ID as per my iphone? or create a new one. if i use the same ID, howabout my i cloud storage will be remain 5GB or 10GB

One possible use for separate Apple IDs is to have a separate ID associated with a particular device. This could be important with iMessage or Facetime, because if you associate all your devices with one ID, you will receive iMessages or Facetime calls on all your devices simultaneously. If you only want to do iMessage on your iPhone, for example, people could use the Apple ID associated with your iPhone, and the messages would not show up on your iPad. Obviously, this could be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on how you like to work.
For me, I have a single Apple ID, mainly because it is easier to keep track of my purchases and downloads. I also prefer to receive messages and facetime calls on all my devices, so I can choose which one to respond from.

HT5624 How do I update my Apple ID on iPad and iPhone after changing it?

How do I update my Apple ID email address on iPhone and iPad after changing the email but not password. I have verified my new email on iPhone iPad and iMac but settings on all for iCloud still show my old email address. I can't use anything now that needs my Apple ID

Hello there, Chivs86.
From what it sounds like you are wanting to sign out of iCloud with the "old" ID and sign in with the new. The following Knowledge Base article should help you with that issue:
iCloud: Features that work with one account at a time on iOS 5 and OS X Lion or later
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4020
Specifically:
To change a secondary account to a primary account
iOS 5 or later:
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Delete the secondary account.
Tap the Back button.
Tap iCloud.
Delete the primary account.
Add the secondary account that you want to be your primary account.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro D.

HT5621 Change apple id on ipad and iphone

I changed email addresses and updated my apple id on icloud. I cannot change my apple id on my ipad or iphone. Suggestions?

Hi,
I changed my apple ID on iCloud, but when I go to use icloud on my ipad or iphone, it seems I need to 'delete' the old account' before logging on with the new account, but won't this 'delete any data on this device' as it warns me?
Thanks

Apple id on ipad and iphone

My email address that I used for my apple id was hacked and I have changed the email on itunes, but need to know how to change it on my iphone and my ipad. Both are continuing to ask for a password with the old email address for apps and icloud...and I have deleted the email account

All apps are tied to the apple ID used to purchase them.
If you want to stop being asked for the old ID-delete all the apps and rebuy them under the new one.

How do I update my apple ID on iPad and iPhone after changing it?

Changed my email address which changed my Apple ID on this site but my iPhone and iPad are still showing my old ID. Can't seem to get it to update. Have tried turning it off and on. Won't let me change it. How can I get them to update to new apple ID? I'm not able to complete any updates for apps. As user ID is pre-populated and just gives me the option to input my password.

Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID. Tap the old ID and sign out, sign in with the new one.

BT Infinity Ipad and Iphone problems

Help please, got fibre installed yesterday and almost everything is perfect, my PC is fine, my wifes Ipad also fine, however; my Iphone and Ipad simply won't do anything. I thought it might be a safari problem so reset the data etc etc,
It could acces almost everything, FBook, Maps etc etc, but won't do anything else, I mean I cant use the internet, which is odd as that's what FBook and Maps use
It wont download anything and wont connect to ICloud at all, no matter what I do it says I aren't connected when I clearly am.
So I totally reset the IPad deleting everything and starting from scratch, still can't connect to the Cloud or app store, it won't even connect for messaging.
Oddly enough I managed to connect to cloud when setting up as it emailed me to say I accessed it
It connects to Itunes music and the App store yet no downloads happen they just sit there waiting
The devices are clearly connected as shown in my hub manager
Any advice most welcome
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Make sure you turn off "Smart Set Up" on the Homehub. See link how to do that
http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/44328/~/switching-smart-setup-on-and-off-on-the-bt-ho...
Some devices have a problem with the Homehub dual band having the same SSid (name). Try giving the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz frequencies different SSids. Just add a 5 to the end of the 5Ghz SSid so you know which is which. Check the 5 GHz Sync with 2.4 GHz: is set to NO.
Once you have done that "forget" the connection on your device and then restart the device and log onto both the SSids if the device can use both frequencies. Not all devices can use 5GHz.

HT4059 iBooks on iPad and iPhone problem

The books in my iBooks will not stay in the collection I put them in. They just keep returning to Purchased Books. But some will randomly place themselves in Books without being put there. I tried setting up a different collection and putting them all in there, but as soon as you exit the ap and come back - they are all back where they started from. I'm so frustrated! I also cannot get any books to delete. Can anyone help me?

Hi vmarlin!
I have an article here that I believe will go a long way toward explaining what is going on with your iBooks app:
iBooks: Tips for managing your iBooks library and storage on iOS devices
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5544
Specifically, I believe this will address your questions:
To free up storage on your device while keeping your library organization, tap Delete This Copy. The copy of the book on that iOS device will be removed, but the cover of the book will remain in your iBooks library with a cloud icon visible in the upper corner. To download the book again, just tap the book cover.
To remove a purchased book from your library on all of your devices, tap Delete From All Devices. The book will be removed from all of your iOS devices, and its cover will only appear in the Purchased Books collection with a cloud icon visible in the upper corner. If you change your mind, you can download the book again from your Purchased Books collection.
So if your books are not downloaded onto the device, they will still show up in your iBooks app with the "download from iCloud" icon in the upper right hand corner, but they will only appear in the Purchased Books section. You will want to download the books you want onto your device, then arrange them into the Collections you would like them to reside in. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

Braden

I can't download any app into my iPAD, but I have no problem downloading app into my iPhone. Using same Apple ID for both my iPAD and iPhone.

HELP!
I couldn't download any app into my iPAD. Puzzled by this strange condition, I tried downloading the same chosen app into my iPhone. It worked!
I use the same Apple ID for both my iPAD and iPhone. So why is it not working for my iPad? Previously, both devices were working fine!
I hope that somebody can help me solve this problem.

Do the apps show as installed on the Purchased tab in the App Store app ? If they show as installed, then have you got any restrictions set on Settings > General > Restrictions (e.g. Allowed Content > Apps) that might be hiding them ?
You could try closing the App Store app completely and then seeing if it downloads after you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e.not with the App Store app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the App Store app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
You could also try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
And try logging out, and then back in, with your iTunes account : Settings > Store

Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
Sync Contacts:
Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
Sync Calendars:
