Why did my Apple ID suddenly revert back to an older username?

After using the same Apple ID (and email address), call it "[email protected]" for several years. I switched my Apple ID when I switched email carriers to "[email protected]", and also switched my Apple ID to the same name, which I used successfully for several months. A few days ago I tried to update my account details and saw my Apple ID had changed back to "[email protected]". In addition, I could no longer access a couple of games I purchased 5 years ago and had been successfully using. Any ideas why this should happen?

I just had the same issues although with no resolution. I rebooted my phone and it prompted me to log in with a completely different apple Id identified as this : x*****@1*****.com
I bought the iPhone 6 Plus from Target brand new while signing up for verizon Edge. Unless Target is selling refurbished or second hand iPhones then what the **** happened? I cant get into my own phone!
I have talked to multiple apple reps and after quite a while I got someone who asked for my proof of purchase with IMEI, i sent it to him and he was surprised. He thought i was making it up. He says he has to put through a force unlock before I can use the phone again.
With your issue it seems the email was yours even though it shouldnt have been your Apple ID. With mine the new Apple ID that comes up on my phone isnt mine at at all!!!!!!!!

HT204291 Apple TV mirroring works fine for iPad but not for MacAir (with MtnLion). The MacAir can stream music and photos to the Apple TV but no mirroring??

IT will stream photos and music and photostream (screensaver), but no mirroring, not even the icon??

Is the MackBook Air mid 2011 or newer? Only mid 2011 or newer Macs support AirPlay Mirroring. Read here for system requirements > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404
Hope that helps.

When I stream videos from my laptop onto my Apple TV via my iPad 2 using the Air Video app/server the video plays great however when I pause the video the Apple TV reverts back to the home screen within a few seconds and then when I want to restart watching the video I have to re-buffer the video. Is there any way I can stop the Apple TV from reverting back to the home screen when I pause the video I’m watching?

Contact the developer of the Air Video app.

IPad 1 reverts back to first screen from any program.

my ipad1 closes my safari or any regular app i'm working on and reverts back to iPads first screen.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

I recently changed my password to my apple id and was able to log into everything fine except the icloud on my ipad. It reverted back to an old apple id and I don't know the password. I have tried all the suggestions and no luck.

You didn't say what you've tried, but f the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, 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. 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.

My iPad Air will not recognize my newest Apple ID e-mail address for cloud access. It continually reverts back to an old e-mail address that I no longer have access to and don't remember the PW for. How can I fix this?

HT201263 how do i revert back cos my ipad is responding

Unable to update or restore after downloading/updating ios 6.0.1 and i connect to itunes but its giving me errors. how do i revert back to my previous ios cos my ipad is responding

You can't go back to a previous version.
If you want to try recovery mode which is what Apple recommends if you are unable to update or restore your iPad, go here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4097
If you want to manually download the update go here.

You might want to temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software as well when you try to restore.

Since downloading OS8 my ipad is incredibly slow. What's the deal? How can I revert back to OS 7?

I am so disappointed with OS8 which I downloaded yesterday. My ipad is now painfully slow, but thta is not the only complaint, my keyboard freezes up too! I upgraded my phone also, but am not certain of changes there yet. Can anyone tell me how to revert back to OS 7?

Sorry,
Apple doesn't officially support or has any provisions for downgrading to a previous iOS version.
There are illegal Jailbreaking methods to do so, but if you do go down this path to downgrading your iDevice, Apple, as recently as iOS 6, has put code in place to detect a jailbroken iPad and prevent your iPad from ever working, again, if there are subsequent updates and upgrades. So, there is no going back from that.

My ipad touch wont play music, an arrow flashes by the battery icon, which is charged and it just reverts back to the selected song without playing...what can i do to fix this?

Help!
My ipad touch wont play music, an arrow flashes by the battery icon, which is charged and it just reverts back to the selected song in a second without playing...what can i do to fix this? thanks, joe

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."

My APPLE ID is NOT working properly. I am frustrated beyond belief I have tried time and time again to change my apple ID and it keeps reverting back to my original ID!! I even set up a new email to try to submit a new id and it still does not work

To change your Apple ID, follow these steps:
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
Enter the email address you want to use, then click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your renamed Apple ID.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID.
After you see a message indicating that verification is complete, remember to update all of the stores and services that you use with your Apple ID.

I have used the same Apple ID on my children's iPads. Both iPads are now showing as the same. How do I get the missing account back?

You can clear the iPad and start again with the other account> Settings->General->Reset->Erase all Content & Settings
Or you can go to Settings->Itunes and App Stores->Apple ID->Sign Out,
And Then Sign in with the other account. You can then download the Apps with that account. Though you may block the other account for 90 days.
Your best bet is to set it up again using the orighinal account it had, so you can get their Apps back. without affecting your account.
