Can you change the apple id that an iPod is using and not lose any data?

Help soon plz!

- Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

Yes if your already on OS X Snow Leopard 10.6
See #8 Reinstall Just OS X + Software Update
..Step by Step to fix your Mac
However you should backup files REGARDLESS as anything can happen at anytime.
Most commonly used backup methods
https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook_pro?view=documents
Yes if your upgrading 10.4/10.5 to Snow Leopard 10.6
However if your hard drive is more than 50% full, then it might be slow. Move just your users files temporarily to a external storage drive (not TimeMachine) and reboot, check in Activity Monitor than you have reclaimed drive space, then upgrade to 10.6, then reboot and Software Update to 10.6.8, then return your users files into their respective Music, Pictures, Documents etc., folders.
If you have problems upgrading to 10.6

Optional: For Snow Leopard Speed Freaks
I do NOT advise you upgrade to 10.7 or later on 10.4/10.5 issued hardware due to risks and performance issues, your PPC based programs will not work and require replacement.

How can I change the Apple ID that appears on my iPod Touch? It's not the correct ID.

Somehow the email address that appears as my Apple ID when opening my iPod Touch (5th gen) is not my correct email address/Apple ID. How can I change my Apple ID withing my Touch so I can access apps?

You might have to transfer purchases to your account. If its signed in on a different account. Or,
1. Go to iTunes on your iPod.
2. Click music and scroll down to the bottom on your iPod.
3. It should show the apple ID that's signed in, and press it and choose sign out.
4. Then click sign in and it should work.
Hope this helps.

HT204053 How do you change the apple ID that is set for iCloud?

My iCloud is set up to my families email instead of mine. It's asking for their password. Can I change the account to be my apple id?

settings / icloud - delete the account your currently see, then re-add the one you want

I have a new Apple ID account. I want to change the Apple ID that my phone automatically uses. I can't figure out how to do it. The account ID area is grayed out and not editable.

Need to change the Apple ID programmed into my iPhone

The simplest way to change the ID is to go to Settings > App Store
Tap your Apple ID. Sign in with the current ID, then sign out
Now, sign in with the new ID
Please be advised however that all apps purchased under the previous ID will forever be tied to that ID. This means you will either want to re-download the free apps you had under the old ID and re-buy the apps you purchased, or you will need to sign out every time there is an update on apps you have and sign in under the old ID to update those apps.

HT204053 How can I change the apple ID that is set up on my mac to match the one on my phone so they can sync

I have inadvertently set up two apple ID accounts - now, I am trying to use iCloud to sync everything but my mac has one ID and my phone has another. How can I change the one on my mac? the one on my phone is the one that has the extra storage.

Navigate to system preferences > iCloud and sign out of your account, then sign back in using the correct details.

How can I change the apple id on my ipod

Hi there, I need to know how I can change my apple id on my ipod without loosing everything. I have set up an apple account. But my ipod won't accept the change. I have tried going through itunes and changing it, and it wouldn't accept the changes either. The thing is my brother and I received them at the same time and we only set up one account now I want my own.

The ID is used in the following locations and you have to change them.
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
Settings>GameCenter
Settings>iCloud
and Settings>iTunes and App store
You have to sign out of ID (for iCloud you delete the iCloud account from the iPod) and sign in with other ID.
Note:
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
If the iPod has iOS 7 then you have the enter the password for Apple ID presently sign in Settings>iCloud.
Also, a Restriction can be set (Settings>General>Restrictions) the prevents changing accounts

HT5114 How do you change the Apple ID that is already hooked up to the iCloud?

My family got all new iPhones for Christmas and I got one last year so I am keeping mine. We have a plan for iCloud that we all share the same data. But we found out that if you have multiple Apple ID's then everyone will have their own iCloud. But the thing is, I my iCloud is already connected to our main Apple ID and I can't change it. I created a new account and it is changed for the iTunes and App Store on my phone but when I go to iCloud in Settings it is still the old Apple ID.
Any help?

I just found the answer to my own question. What you need to do is go to iCloud under Settings and then scroll down to the bottom and Delete the prior account. Then my new account popped up in the username and I just had to fill in my password.

How can I change the Apple ID that is set up with my Mail account?

I need to change that hotmail address

You shouldn't post your email address in public forums.
To manage your Apple ID, go to this site:
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
You can change an outside email address associated with an Apple ID as a main login, but you will still have an Apple email address associated with it also which you can't change.
You will need to sign in with your apple id. If you forgot your password, click forgot and follow the directions.

Can you change the default code that targets a new window to change the content in a div tag instead

I created a database for store locations. I was able to display the list of stores. Here though I don't want the list to show the number in front of it... I still need to find the CSS to edit my results for this one. However, more importantly, I don't want to open my results in a new window, I want to be able to target a DIV tag instead.
This is the code that is created to display the list of stores.
{module_webapps,5665,a,,,_blank,,50,,1}
Currently it opens a blank window. I'd like to target a div tag on the right of the list area where the store info can appear.
Perhaps the gurus at adobe can upgrade this feature? Target DIVs instead of new or blank windows, or using frames. Below is the screen of the links created from the DB.
Below is the blank window that it opens.
Would like to make it open in a div to the right of the list. Not sure how to change to core code that was created to make that change.

I'm doing something wrong. I have the list showing the stores in CA
<div class="flip" id="woodcontainer" style="width: 160px; height: 23px;">
<h1>CALIFORNIA</h1>
</div>
<div class="panel">
<script>
$("#infochange").load("{module_webapps,5665,c,41140}"); /* this creates the list of stores in CA where #infochange is the DIV I am targeting.
</script>
</div>
<br />
The code for the DIV where I want the details to load.
<div id="infochange"></div>
This doesn't make sense because I need to have something in the DIV as a holder of some sort?

Can you change the apple id of a downloaded app?

My wife opened a new apple id to download me am app for my birthday, can i register/ switch that app to our shared apple id?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
No. Apple does not transfer content from one ID to another and Apple does not merge IDs. In the future she may wish to look into iTunes Gift Cards and elecronic Gift Certificates that allow the user to download the gift using their own Apple ID from either the Mac App Store or the iTunes Stores.

HT204053 Can I back up two computers to iCloud with the same Apple ID and not lose any data?

Hi. I have a macbook air which is all set to back up on iCloud.
My iMac has much more data and I wish to set it up as well.
Will iCloud know these are two different computers or will it overwrite one with the other's data?
I guess the main question is, do I need two Apple IDs and should I treat them as two separate accounts.
Many thanks.

Hi...
If you delete the backups it will not delete any content from their device, however the data will be removed from iCloud.
It will also prevent the devices from backing up to iCloud in future, unless this is re-enabled.
