Can't change iCloud email help!!!

I recently changed my email to another and when I go on my iPad 2 it says that iCloud can't load so I went to go and change it and it won't let me. Can anyone help?

Hi Connor.reed,
If you've recently changed to a new email account, you may want to make sure that it was added correctly to your iPad settings. The following article may be helpful:

If you are still having issues with iCloud, you may want to take a look at this article:

  • Can't change iCloud email address

    Hi everyone!
    I will do my best to explain what is going on.
    I just got a refurb Iphone 4, and updated to OSx7
    Icloud synced with my old email address from a long time ago, I guess its floating around on my mac. That email adress no longer exists as it got hacked, and then I shut it down. I don't know the password for that account or any verification information or the birthday I put down.
    With that being said, that email account is synced with icloud, I tried to delete it in settings but I need a password to delete it. (it asks to so i can shut off find off my iphone).. No password no way of getting it and I can't delete it!
    My itunes account has my current email adress not sure how to get that one in use for icloud.
    I'm fairly new to icloud, easy english thanks!

    Have you figured this out? Having the same problem on my new iphone 5

  • Can you change iCloud email-adress?

    I got a new iCloud adress after purchasing a new iPhone. Can I use both. My old one is sort of master. Can I make the new one "master"?

      Is it possible to transfer information held on an icloud account registered with a hotmail address, on to a new icloud address, which would be set up with an '@me.com' address?

  • HT204053 I was using my husbands iCloud email. How do I change iCloud email to my iTunes email

    I was using my husbands email address and iCloud and want to change to my address. I've changed iTunes but can't change iCloud email. Any ideas on how to change it

    It only deletes it from your device, not from iCloud.  This won't effect his account of device(s).  W
    Also, when you delete the account you will be asked if you want to Keep or Delete the iCloud data.  If you need to migrate a copy of the data to your new account, choose Keep, then choose Merge after signing back in with your new ID to upload the data to your new account.
    Deleting the account will delete the photo stream photos from your device.  If you want to keep them, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (square with up arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • HT4436 How can I change my email address? Help?

    It appears I have a similar email address to someone and we keep receiving each others mail - so how can I change my email address?

    Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change the address (short of creating an entirely new account).
    However, all is not lost. You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account, and if it has @mac.com or @me.com versions these cannot be reinstated once deleted.
    More information on aliases here:
    http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
    However all this won't stop you receiving emails at the primary address: but you can set up a Rule to move all such messages to the Trash. Go to the Mail page at http://icloud.com and click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left: choose 'Rules'.

    Hi karen615,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    If you cannot reset your Apple ID password via security questions, you can reset via email authentication. If you are not receiving the email, it may be necessary to contact Apple Support using the link in the Get help section toward the bottom of the article.

  • How can I change Primary Email Address to icloud email?

    I have an apple id been using for many years.  I would like to change the primary email address.  I would like to create a new icloud email address and use that as primary email for my apple id.
    When I try to do this in the Manage Apple ID it says that I cannot pick an email address associate with apple domain.
    How do I do this???
    Essentially I would like to start over with an icloud email address but keep all my existing itunes purchases etc.   If I create a new Apple ID with icloud email id I am hosed and cannot copy over my purchases.   If I stay with existing Apple ID, I can change primary email address but I can't use icloud email.
    Any suggestions??

    While you can't currently change your Apple ID to a Mobile/iCloud email address, I found a solution that helps with a related problem.
    Suppose you've recently got an iCloud email address, but Apple are still sending all your iTunes Store, App Store and Mac App Store receipts to your old gmail address (the one that's still your Apple ID). And suppose they're also sending all the Apple Support Communities notifcation emails to your old gmail address. How do you change it? How do you fix it?
    Well the option exists, but it is hidden away in a weird place. To get Apple sending all of their receipts and notifications to your new iCloud email address...
    • Go to your country's Apple Store website http://store.apple.com/
    • Click on the Account button in the top-right corner
    • Under Account Settings, click on Change your default shipping or billing info
    • Sign in with your usual Apple ID and password
    • The email address listed under Payment Information is the key
    • Click on Edit next to Payment Information and change that email address to your iCloud address
    That's all you have to do.

    How can I change the email address linked to my iCloud account for iPhone 4s?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If it's your non-iCloud mail address, start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account
    If it is your iCloud mail address you want to change, you can't.

  • How can I change my email on iCloud that is not verified yet

    I can't change my email on iCloud and the email on iCloud is not verified

    If the old ID is yours, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go 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.

    To change the iCloud ID ("email address") you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your 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 on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID.

  • HT201342 how can i change my email address on icloud account, it is already changed on my apple id

    How can I change my email address on icloud, I have already changed it on my apple id, but it still is asking for lmy old email and password and I can not back up or anything?

    Hello RousePryor
    If the iCloud account ends with an @icloud.com, then that is something that you cannot change it. If that is not the case, then you will need to sign out and may need to change it back to the old Apple ID to do so.

  • Can I change my email for icloud

    Can I change the email associated with iCloud? I can not remember my password and can not find a way to change it. When I do try to change the mail password it tries to change my iCloud password.

    You're welcome.  To sync gmail contacts to your phone you need to set up gmail as an exchange account and turn on contacts syncing, as explained here: http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740.  If you are going to sync your contacts with gamil, turn contacts to Off in Settings>iCloud.  Attempting to sync contacts with both gmail and iCloud can create problems.
