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.

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. -
All seemed to be going well until - the updates.
Now my iphone will not recognize my itunes libraries. I deleted the library link from the iPhone remote app and even told itunes to forget all remotes. Back to my iphone to set up as a remote - again. The iphone generates the 4 digit code, itunes even recognizes the iphone, allows me to enter the code, and returns the screen that I can now start using the iphone as a remote. --- Back to the iphone - and the remote app can "find the library" - What gives? Help
<edited by host>Revelation, do you mean complete restore of the iPhone and all contents thereof? Or the Mac?
I have deleted the application "Remote" from the iPhone, and I have re-installed it. Each time the application will work for a limited time, and then it loses the ability to locate the library.
I continue to suspect IP addresses as the source of the problem, and wonder if the addresses must be static on both devices in order for them to maintain a connection. However, I find it odd that iTunes can register the presence of the iPhone enough to list it in the "devices" pane (therefore, I assume that the two devices are communicating over my network) but then the iPhone fails to locate the iTunes library.
Other applications (Briefcase Lite, for example) seem to be able to conduct over-the-network business without difficulty. -
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.

I am sure there is a way to sync both my iphone and my husband's iphone on our one iMac...when I connected my husband's for the first time it recognized it as a different phone, but would let me save his apps to itunes like it saved mine earlier... can we have both of our iphone's info on our one itunes account?
When you connected his iphone did you click File>Transfer Purchases?
This would transfer any ituens purchases from iphone to computer.
You can sync as many iphones as you like to one computer/account/library. -

Is there a way to get a search protocol of the "Find my iPhone" search app and icloud ? And where can i find a protocol of the chat with a apple support worker
Thanks for the reply however this does not help. When I check the cloud it shows that I have only 20 photos. In reality I had a lot more than that. All the photos on the cloud are those that I have taken since I was at the Apple store. When I check cloud storage usage on my phone it says that I have 5.1 GB of photos. This is a lot more than the 20 that I can see. I am not sure what the Apple employee did to my phone.
Still looking for answers. It is really too bad that I can not talk to an Apple person to get help since they messed up my phone. -
I had a iphone and downloaded a (paid for) app and now looking for it to put on my ipod..cant find it now to replace the app it is showingit costs $14.99.
Usually if you press buy it then it will pop up a screen saying you have already purchased this item, would you like to download it again. You can also click on the purchased tab in the app store on your iPod provided you are using the same apple id that you use on your phone.

When i attempt to sync my iphone it continues to say this computer is no longer authorized for apps and they will be deleted?? I don't understand?? I put my password and authorize but same message comes up. What to do??
I found the solution in another post. By deleting all my apps, I was able to sync the phone. I hope I don't have to delete all my apps every time I want to sync my phone, but at least now I am able to sync my phone.

Hi. I tried switching my Apple ID email address to my new email address and I don't know how to switch it for iCloud and iTunes. Please help!! It seems like Apple thinks I have two separate accounts, when I just tried to simply change it!
Settings > Store > Sign Out.
Sign in with the correct ID. -
I found some little black dots n my iPhone 5 screen. I've only had it for 2 weeks. What are they and will apple replace my iPhone for a new one or fix it?
They should have one in Stock, but you never know. Call your Apple Store and tell them you have an iPhone 5 color and GB, and that you most likely will need a replacement, do they have any in Stock. If yes, go in, if not ask for advice on how to handle your problem.

Use one account for apps and other for itunes match
Hello everybody
My question today is quite simple. I use one account for apps and tv shows, but inwant to use a different itunes account for purchasing itunes match. How can I use them both on my devices? Will it be asking for my user-pass each time i play a song? What other thing should i consider?
Thank you in advanceI would strongly recommend you not do this. You will regret it.
I have played with this issue a lot. You have to remain signed into match in order for it to show up on your phone. If you sign out to purchase an app or redownload one from your appstore id you use then match will be removed from your phone and when you go into your music app the icloud will not be there. You then have to go sign back out of the store id you used for your app purchase and then sign back into match and everything will have to go though the download to your device process again. This really is not what you want to do.
Sign up to match with the apple id that you know you will use the most or has the most purchased items and use that for all purchases, i.e. books, apps, movies, and music. You don't want to go though the other process.
Plus apple will start not letting you sign into match because you signed out and back in, in to short a period of time.
all store purchases on an iphone are linked to the store id. if you sign out of your match id on the appstore and sign into another account to purchase an app then itunes match will sign out in the music app. You can't have two store id's signed into your iphone at the same time. They are all linked together. -
I have ad Apple ID on my iPad , when I use the apple on my iPhone for the first time, I put in my Apple ID for the iPad, didn't work. Need to create a new one. Why? How can I just use my iPad ID on my iPhone?
Hi kamfong,
Went to Settings where?
If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
1. Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
2. Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
Cheers,
GB
