Apple tv does not recognize my new icloud id

I had to change my icloud ID and password. Apple TV does not recognize the new icloud ID/password after signing out and signing back in, I rebooted/reset, still nothing. I reopened home sharing too.

After much trial and error, I solved this. I logged out of icloud on my MAC, and since I had already signed out of icloud on the apple TV, the apple TV finally accepted my new icloud id and password. Apple tv also wanted me to input my password via the TV and NOT the remote. So.....apple ain't lyin' when it says to sign out of all your accts on ALL devices before changing any apple IDs or passwords. Let this be a warning to anyone in the future so to save you much time and frustration

  • Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) HELP!

    Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) and requires the password to do anything. Everytime I go onto the ICloud  page it shows my old email and requires the password, but I can't exactly type in a password because that won't work. I can't find a way to change my email or delete ICloud.

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going 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.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) 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 back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • Icloud does not recognize my new ID & i can not use icloud to delete the account for a new one

    i cloud does not recognize my new Apple ID on my mini ipad i had no problem with mac book & iphone  only with the ipad

    Did you change the assigned email address of your account before you tried to change it on the iPad? If yes then you would have to change the ID back to the old email address, then sign out, then change it back to the new address and then sign in again.

  • I changed my apple id on my computer and my iPad does not recognize the new id

    I changed my Apple id on my computer and my ipad does not recognize the new id and continues to display the old id. How can I get it to change to the new id?

    Easy Fix: On your iPad, go into Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and click on your hotmail account. Simply replace the password that's already there with your new one. Then, I recommend rebooting your iPad:
    To reboot your iPad, hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button simultaneously until the screen goes black and the Apple logo appears. If, during this process, a slider appears on the screen to power it off, ignore it and keep holding the buttons down.
    If you've already tried this, then the next step would be to delet your hotmail account from your iPad (also in Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars) and then reboot the iPad and add the account back again.

  • I changed my apple id email and now my phone does not recognize it for icloud.

    I changed my apple id email address and now my iphone 5s does not recognize it for icloud. It keeps asking for the old email address apple id.

    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going 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.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) 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 back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • I got an iphone 4. I had to update my macbook pro to Lepard just to sync. I updated to lepard. Now when I try to sync itunes does not recognize my new iphone 4 as mine and wants to erase everything I have bought using the phone.

    I upgraded from Iphone 3g to iphone 4. I had to update my macbook pro to Lepard just to sync. the **** thing with the new iphone 4. I bought and updated to lepard. Now when I try to sync itunes does not recognize my new iphone 4 as mine and wants to erase everything I have bought using the phone before it will sync! It says everything on the phone now will be cleared in order to sync it with my existing info on the computer from my previous iphone. How can I just get everything from my current iphone 4 into itunes, basically add it to the info from my previous iphone 3g that is currently in my itunes?  I dont want to lose what I have on my phone currently....I paid money for half the apps for crying out loud.
    I was so frustrated by this when I first bought the phone that I just pushed it out of my mind and NEVER synced it. Please help...

    Nope - you cannot restore a backup from a newer iOS version on to a device running an older iOS version.  The reverse works, but in your case to use your backup, you must update to iOS 7.0.3 - no other option if you want to use that backup.

    I have i-Tunes open on my computer and have entered i-Tunes store, ATV says it can't access the store.  Both on the same network!

    In i-Tunes, songs are lost when they have not been moved. I lose whole albums I have ripped from CDs to iTunes

  • Just reset my apple ID and password, but iPhone does not recognize it for iCloud or iTunes.  Is there a way to be sure these iPhone features use my new Apple ID and password?

    Have never been able to use iCloud because my iPhone (v 4) does not recognize my apple ID or password.  Any ideas?

    If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  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 iPhone on your device. Then 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.  You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then  on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • HT4352 I have home sharing turned on on my computer but the Apple TV does not recognize it even though the same Appleid and password is used. Does anyone have this issue and, if so, how did you resolve it?

    Issue with Apple TV not recognizing the home sharing option in itunes. Calls for paswrod but even when added it still does not recognize it. iTunes indicates that the home sharing optionis on but this is apparently not seen by Appletv. How can this be resolved?

    Hi Augstiner57, I have the same problem.  Did you figure it out?  Mine seems to have happened after I updated Apple TV. Now it doesn't recognize my Home Sharing even though on my MacBook is it turned on.
    I am running an old OS  though (Leopard) so  I am wondering if I need to upgrade.

    I had an Apple ID with an old email address and I tried to change it to a new ID.  When I try to go into anything requiring an Apple ID, I can't get in because my new ID is not recognized.  How do I get my new Apple ID recognized?

    To change the iCloud ID on your device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.

  • Apple TV does not recognize my Apple ID and password. How do I authorize new apple tv?

    Just purchased Apple TV and trying to use it. It will not recognize my Apple ID or Password. Do I need to authorize the Apple TV and how do I do that?

    Hi goskii77,
    If you are having issues setting up your new Apple TV with your Apple ID, you may want to double check that the info is current and correct by logging into "Manage my Apple ID" as outlined on this page:
    Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5621
    If everything is confirmed as correct and working but your Apple TV still won't accept your Apple ID, you may want to try restoring it to factory settings:

  • Apple TV does not recognize itunes

    Hi, I recently bought Apple TV 2012 Full HD. The network is functioning properly and the Apple TV recognizes the network (I can download movies, youtube, etc on the Apple TV). Problem is, it wont load the itunes library from my Mac. It furthermore won't allow home sharing and/or airplay.
    The following I have tried:
    1. Updated Mac software
    2. Updated Apple TV Software
    3. Updated the firmware of my modem / router
    4. Updated Itunes to latest version
    5. Checked the firewall settings of Mac - no firewall in place
    6. Restarted all the devices and reset it several times.
    7. Put Home sharing on/off on both itunes / Apple TV and then restarted the process.
    What happens is, on very odd occasions it recognizes the itunes library but then drops it again. Network still operating fine. Same thing happens with Home sharing. Airplay also does not show.
    Can anybody help me please? Would appreciate it a lot.

    Hi Charl100,
    It sounds like you have been on the right track in troubleshooting this issue. If you are still having issues with Home Sharing on your Apple TV, you may want to go over the steps outlined in the following article:

  • Server Essentials R2 does not recognize two new Hard Drives

    I have a fresh install of Windows Server Essentials R2.  The installation went fine and the Operating System is on a 250 GB SATA Drive.  Up to this point everything went well.  However, I have added two new 3 TB SATA Internal
    Hard Drives that I cannot get the Server Operating System to recognize at all.  I want to use these two new HDs as my primary storage for the Client Computers. The BIOS does see the two Drives but the Operating System does not see them, meaning that
    no message came up when I installed them from the OS, they don't show up in "Computer" or the "Storage/Computer Management" plug-in of "Administrative Tools".  What is happening here?  I've tried everything that
    I can think of, but with no luck.  Please assist with this issue.  Thank you.  

    GPT if i'm not wrong will support large partitions.
    I have enabled GPT on my server, and I formatted the drives using NTFS.
    check out link below, it's not Microsoft site but it will give you an idea.
    text below is from this link: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/233291-32-what-difference
    Here's what the site says:
    MBR
    is the standard partitioning scheme that's been used on hard disks since the PC first came out. It supports 4 primary partitions per hard drive, and
    a maximum partition size of 2TB.
    GPT disks are new, and are readable only by Windows Server 2003 SP1, Windows Vista (all versions), and Windows XP x64 Edition.
    The GPT disk itself can support a volume up to 2^64 blocks in length. (For 512-byte blocks, this is 9.44 ZB - zettabytes. 1 ZB is 1 billion terabytes). It can also support theoretically unlimited partitions.
    Windows restricts these limits further to 256 TB for a single partition (NTFS limit), and 128 partitions.
    Only Itanium systems running Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista systems with an EFI BIOS can boot from a GPT disk. The other operating systems mentioned
    earlier can use GPT disks as data disks but not boot disks.
    For more information on GPT, see Problems
    with larger than 2TB arrays in the General Storage forum, and see Windows
    and GPT FAQ for additional information.
