Change apple id iCloud iPhone 4s

changed my apple ID using my iMac
can't change it for iCloud etc

To change the iCloud ID on your iPhone 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.  Next, use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, 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.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPhone 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 in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How to change apple id on iPhone. Wife and I have same apple ID.  Get each others iMessages. want to put her on another cloud with different id.

    How to change apple id on iPhone? Wife and I have same apple ID which causes me to get her iMessages instead of her. I also get all her pics on my phone and I don't want them.  We need to change her apple ID without causing my ID and cloud to be closed.

    Have her create a new ID.   Here:  https://appleid.apple.com/
    Have her log out of iMessage/Facetime/iCloud on her device.   Now have her use the new ID she has created.
    That should keep the 2 of you separated, except for iTunes purchases.   You can share that ID in a family up to 5 devices.

  • Changed itunes apple password. iCloud asked later to put in iCloud password. Used changed apple password iCloud doesn't accept it. Tied old iCloud password does not accept that either. Don't know what to do

    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • CHANGE APPLE ID ON IPHONE

    We have iphone and diffrent ipods and a pad. We only had one apple id. Unfortunately with the icloud we could read eachothers messages.
    So i created a new apple id for my iphone.
    Now, i told my iphone (via settings, apps...) that i have a new apple id.
    But when i look in settings and icloud, i still see the old apple id and i don't know how to change it. Can you help me ?
    And does anyone know if we can just buy music on one apple id and then use it with the 2 id's. ?

  • Changing Apple ID in iPhone for Photo Stream

    How can I change my Apple ID in my iPhone for everything.. Not just for iTunes. When I use my iPhone anything related to Photo Stream it asks me with my old Apple ID. I've changed it and it worked for everything except for Photo stream

    If the old ID ("user name") 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.

  • Changed Apple-ID - iCloud Backup?

    I recently changed my Apple-ID at appleid.apple.com. Today I set up my new iPhone with an iCloud backup using this changed ID. It first worked properly. All my apps were displayed and started downloading. After a while the download stopped with a notice "Not all preferences could be restored". After that I was asked to enter the password with my former Apple-ID (which caused another failure notice, since this former ID obviously does not exist anymore as I replaced it with the new one). Changing the ID under preferences>icloud>account was not possible. Deleting the ID and setting up the iPhone with the new one only started the whole process all over again.

    I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
    Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
    Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed.  If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.

  • Does anyone know how to change apple id on iphone 4?

    During the upgrade to iOS5, I set up my iCloud account with one apple id.  However, I would like to using another apple id I use with iTune but I can't seem to change the setting on my iPhone4.  When I go to setting, iCloud, account, and try to click on the Apple ID, it is greyed out.  Is it possible to change the iCloud account once set up on iphone?

    Yes - for those with this problem on the Mac, I fixed mine today. (Merry Christmas!)
    1. My situation was interesting. I was logged into the App Store OK as me (you can do this despite the greying out if you go to the STORE menu in the App Store app). This meant that my "Purchases" not yet installed on this particular Macbook Pro were available to install. (It doesn't ask for the password again.) However, my "UPDATES" for software already installed brought up the sign-in dialog box with the previous user's account name greyed out (Admin IT people from my workplace).
    2. The two available updates that this clearly affected were iMovie and iPhoto in my case. I therefore followed the advice here about removing the receipt identifying the previous 'purchaser' of these apps. Note: you do that via the PACKAGE of each affected application itself (using the finder) - see the instructions.
    THAT FIXED IT.
    3. I don't know if this is relevant, but just in case: my Mac had a separate account for our IT dept called 'Administrator'. In System Preferences under USERS & GROUPS, I selected that account and changed its Apple ID (in fact none was set at all - so it might not have been relevant) to my own Apple ID. (No password required here, so not risky on its own I think.) I don't know that this was relevant, and once I had done step 2 above (which I actually did after this one) I simply deleted my ID again from that Administrator account.
    Good luck!

  • HT1430 change apple email on iphone

    I have a iphone 4, and when I backed it up it did it ot a earliry version. I have since change my email and I cant log in to icloud to change it. It keeps showing the old one. I cant restore teh phone because I cant turn off where is my iphone.

    I set up an apple id on my iphone, however I didn't realize the email was incorrect and a verification email can't be sent to the incorrect email address as it doesn't exist. I set up a new correct id, but the old email id keeps showing up on my phone when I try to log into the apps store. I keep getting an error that says verification has not been confirmed..how do I change this so the phone recognizes the correct id and email? Help!

  • Can't Change Apple ID in iphone

    I have changed my Apple ID in my Mac but my phone Apple ID wont change. I have been reading that i must delete icloud first. When i tried, it says that i have to type my old password which is not longer valid since the old account no longer exsists. The old email is Hotmail email which no longer exists, so i cant go back and use that email and go around the system.
    I am trying to have the new account reflected in my iphone. I cant download any new apps or even updates. What is the use of smartphone without apps !!!
    What should i do?
    I am very disappointed at apple. I believe its time to swtich from IOS to Android.

    If you  go to settings > iCloud and then turn off Find My iPhone and enter the password for your new Apple ID ( it will still show your old Apple ID but the password for your new Apple ID will work), once Find My iPhone has been turned off you should be able to delete your old iCloud account. Then sign in with your new Apple ID! To download and update apps you will need to go to settings > itunes & app store click on your old apple id in blue, click sign out, then sign in with your new apple id and password! Good luck!

  • How to change Apple ID on Iphone 5S without email and password

    Hi, my Iphone's Apple ID is using an old email I can't access and I don't have the password. Plus not sure why, it doesn't have my correct birthday for verification. I have literally spent 12 hours overall trying to remedy this. Does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    OK, then if it is the same Apple account with just a new ID then you need to do this to get rid of the iCloud account under the old ID:
    1.     Go to Manage your Apple ID and change the Apple ID back to the old ID (this is temporary - do NOT verify it, do NOT change the password): Apple - My Apple ID
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud and delete the iCloud account that has the old ID. Use your current Apple ID password when asked, then follow the prompts to delete the account
    3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the new ID (you may have to verify it again)
    4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign onto iCloud with the new ID
    Cheers,

  • Change apple ID in iPhone for apps and iTunes

    I put my old apple ID in my phone when I set it up. The approval email went to an email address that is no longer in use. Now I cant figure out how to change my apple ID in my phone to my new apple ID. I see how to change the iCloud apple ID but all of my apps and iTunes is still tied to my old one.

  • Changing apple ID on iPhone

    Hi, I accidentally entered a wrong email address onto the Apple ID field on my iPad during setup for iCloud. Now the iPad and MacBook can't find the phone. Setup in iPad won't let me change the ID. Any ideas how I might get the iPad to accept a corrected Apple ID? Thanks.

    Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  If you are syncing any data to this account be sure to choose to keep the data on your iPad when you are given the option.  Then set up the iCloud account you want to access using the correct ID and turn on data syncing, and if you have data on your iPad you want to upload to this account, when prompted, choose merge.
