Change Apple ID Issues!

I have been using the same apple Id  for years and last week I decided to change my apple id (email) to my new email. it worked fine till I today tried to reset the phone, it asks for the old login details not the but when I put the old email and the password it says invalid. That window doesn't give me an option to change the login email, I can only the corresponding email password.
Now I don't know how to change this - I changed my apple id email from the phone iTunes apps store > select the email > view apple ID > and changed it.
Now I cant seem to reset the phone, but I still can download new apps.  Please help.
Did I do something wrong?

No, but you need to first log out of your old account, then reset your settings and reconfigure.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Settigns.

  • HT1595 i can't see my apple tv on my screen? i'm not sure if this is an apple tv issue or a tv setup issue? (although it appears nothing has changed on my tv setup since the last time i used it?)

    As far as the flashing question mark and globe icons are concerned, your computer had lost track of its startup volume and was searching through the possibilities. The globe icon indicates that it is looking for a network to start from and the question mark indicates that it is looking for an OS X volume. To fix this, if you haven't already, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk and reselect your internal HD as the startup volume.
    From what you have described, this issue does seem to have corrected itself, and the faster start up is what one would normally expect. I think that you have absolutely no reason to reinstall your system.

    I can't get FaceTime or iMessage to connect, I enter valid password (tested and works for Apple account) and it won't connect. I have checked all settings, upgrades iOS to 8.3 rebooted, changed Apple acount PW still wont connect. My internet connection is fine Safari works and I can access all sites. I have an iPad 2. Any help on this will be greatly appreciate.  iPad 2, iOS 8.3

    This is an ongoing problem as you will see by searching the forum. 
    Out of curiosity, do you have 2 step verification enabled?  It was recently extended to include iMessage & FaceTime & I'm wondering if it might be causing some of the issues that some users are experiencing.

  • Changing Apple Id to be my Icloud email address?

    I have been using my sky.com email address as my Apple Id but I am now trying to stop using that for anything.   The apple web page for changing Apple Id will not let me use my icloud.com address as my apple id - it says it is an apple domain and that apple domains can't be used for apple ids.  Is there any alternative to having two email addresses?
    Also my IPhone (3Gs) does not like the icloud email address - when I try to set up the account it comes back and says it can't log onto the me.com imap server with the icloud address. Is icloud email compatable with iphone 3Gs?

    JWBL, I am annoyed by exactly the same issue and there are more and more people complaining. See the discussion I created here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/20844772?ac_cid=op123456#20844772
    Roger, your point is that you should always have a non-Apple email address associated with your Apple ID so Apple can send you login information if you lose your password. That is certainly true. But it does not imply that that non-Apple address has to be the name of your Apple ID. And there is even a way to make an iCloud Address the name of your Apple ID: If you create a completely new Apple ID with the initial setup of an iPhone. But that is of course not an option if you already purchased stuff with your existing Apple ID.
    It is not a major problem, but it kind of annoys me that I keep seeing my obsolete Gmail address everywhere after I switched to iCloud and it's just a ridiculous limitations I can't see any reason for.

  • Change apple ID on Purchased APP's

    Until fairly recently my wife and I shared an apple ID, simply because it was easier, as we only had one debit card to pay for purchases etc.
    However, as our finances have become more stable I now have my own Apple ID and iphone 4.
    So all of the APPS that I have previously purchased using our 'shared' Apple ID, I have imported into 'my' iTunes. I've also been able to sync them with my iphone.
    The problem is, that when updates are issued they are looking for our 'shared' Apple ID. I did not with the following link that I'll need to put our 'shared' apple ID password in, forever...
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/20842941?searchText=Change Apple ID on APPS#20842941
    Isn't this slightly rubbish?
    I have paid for them, so don't see why I need to continue to use an old Apple ID. I appreciate this is for security reasons (otherwise, one person could download and share it with everybody). But, really that's not my concern, my concern is having the ability to update Apps that i have bought and paid for, without having to ask my wife "what's YOUR apple ID password again".

    Sadly that's the way it is. Apps are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them, and you can't update apps across multiple IDs without switching in and out of each account.

  • Change Apple ID country,then change back, all the data of apps store is gone

    Use iPhone 5s change Apple ID country,then change back, all the data of apps store is gone,the apps I uninstall but buy before if I want to buy before,I need to buy again!Is there any way that I can fix it? Thank you！

    Apple ID is only valid for purchases in the Swiss iTunes Store.
    The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

  • HT1770 I am setting up new Seagate GOFlex Pro for Mac for Time Machine.  Backup stops at 45.2MB.  A customer service of the Seagate said it is Apple's issue.  Please help!  Shuichi

    Backup stops at 45.2MB.  A customer service says that it is Apple's issue.  Please help.  Shuichi

    Event store UUIDs don't match  naming your internal HD or any other drive/partition being backed-up.  Time Machine can't be sure the OSX internal log of file changes that it normally uses is correct. 
    This happens in the following circumstances:
    •The first backup of a disk, or to a new location
    •After booting from your install disc, Recovery HD, or a different OSX volume (usually)
    •A full restore
    •Certain hardware repairs (e.g., new internal disk or logic board)
    •Removal of large exclusions
    •A very large volume of changes (especially an OSX update)
    •An improper shutdown of your Mac, or improper disconnection or power loss on the Time Machine drive
    •If it's an external HD, an improper shutdown or disconnection of the drive
    •A failed or cancelled backup
    •Many days without a backup
    It usually causes a lengthy deep scan/traversal (below), so if you see it frequently, you need to figure out why it's happening.

  • Has anyone received an update on apple tv issue with HD movies and what they are doing about it

    Has anyone received an update on apple tv issue with HD movies and what they are doing about it

    Whatever the rep told you, it is complete nonsense. There is clearly a problem at your end, the Apple TV 3 is capable of more than the Apple TV 2, and you clearly have the Apple TV 2 working perfectly. Since the Apple TV 2 is able to download from the Internet properly, then my suspicion would be your problem lies on your local network. Interference is a common problem on local networks.
    Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

  • Can't Update Recently Changed Apple/iCloud ID on iOS7 and Can't Reset iPhone

    I changed my AppleID and password shortly after updating to iOS7.  I tried to change my ID on the phone, but it seems to have locked in the old ID for certain functions.  I cannot change my iPhone iCloud ID by deleting the account or reset the phone as it requires the old ID and password.  I changed my Apple ID because my email address was old and no longer exists so I can't just revert back to the old one as I won't be able to perform the email verification. Please help!

    After multiple hours (since 23:00 last night and some sleep) I found a solution.  I did install the "Find my Friends" app.  This did not fix the issue directly, but I am not sure it was required for the following steps to progress properly.
    My solution:
    Changed my alternate Apple ID email address to a second, active, non-Apple domain email.Verified the email address.
    Changed my primary Apple ID email address to the old inactive email account.Could not verify this via email (obiviously).
    Went to iCloud settings in the iPhone and deleted iCloud settings on iPhoneThe ID now matches and the current password worked
    Changed Apple ID to the previous active email addressVerified this address
    Logged in iCloud on iPhone with the proper Apple ID
    Appears to work properly now.

  • I cannot receive messages from iphones since I got a new android device. did the change apple I'd password and whatnot...it still isn't working. what do I do?

    I cannot receive messages from iphones since I got a new android device. did the change apple I'd password and whatnot...it still isn't working. what do I do?

    Lets take first issue first: Apple does not charge a customer to 'keep' iPad access. That does not happen at apple. If you were billed and charged that amount of money from someone you were speaking to over the phone, you were not talking with Apple support. If you need to speak with apple support you are free to call them at 800MYAPPLE and they will talk to you for no more money than 19.00/ support event.
    Please read this article to asssit with imessage and factime troubleshooting.

    I'm sorry you have this happen to you - that being charged fraudulently for a non rendered service.
    Good luck to you Friend.

  • Hi ... Suddenly I have this problem with my iPhone4 . Whenever I am dialling or receiving calls, I am not audible at the other end , but if I am putting phone on speaker then I am audible to other person .Not sure if any setting is changed or device issue

    Hi ... Suddenly I have this problem with my iPhone4 . Whenever I am dialling or receiving calls, I am not audible at the other end , but if I am putting phone on speaker then I am audible to other person .Not sure if any setting is changed or device issue. Please suggest or help.

    There's an Apple help page on the DNS problem - at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408
    The first thing to try is changing your DNS settings - and for that you need to open System Preferences, then the
    Network section.
    In Network - click  on Advanced - then the DNS tab
    under DNS servers - use the + button to enter two extra lines
    either these, from google dns
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    or from OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    then click OK & then 'Apply'
    You would need to do that seperately for the Cable (Ethernet) settings and Wireless (Airport)

  • IMessage on iMac freezes  after changing apple ID

    I changed apple ID. My iMessage started freezing the computer for at least 3- 10 or more minutes. It's an ID issue I'm told because I opened new account on mac and as soon as I logged in Apple ID iMessage and it did same thing to that account called Tester.

    Hi,
    In that case contact Apple Support and ask them to look at the iMessages server with regard to your Apple ID.
    The use of the Apple ID is device specific and it can be "refused" for a Mac when and iPhone still works.
    As Level 1 people at Apple Support tend to Script Led you may need to ask to speak to a Level 2 person.
    Even then you may have to endure some testing such as looking at the Keychain.

  • HT5787 Change apple id for all purchased apps...

    I want to change apple id in my iphone as my old apple ID's password is not working. Please help me. I want to change apple ID for all new and old purchases.

    Have you tried logging out an back into that account on your phone (tap on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store), and/or tried getting the password reset for it : http://iforgot.apple.com (if you do get the password reset then you might need to logout and back into it) ?
    If you create a new account then that will work for new purchases, but all of your existing downloads will remain tied to your old account, so only your old account will be able to redownload those purchases and/or download updates to its apps.

  • 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.
