Change of Apple-ID for iCloud on iPad

After update to iOS 8 on My iPad iCloud has My old Apple-ID. how do i change to My new? My old does not exist any more

You have to sign out of the old ID, provide the password, then sign back in with the new ID. If your password isn't accepted to sign out of the old ID, go through the steps in this article: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud. The last one (change your ID temporarily) will usually fix things.

Change apple ID for iCloud on iPad

I need to change the Apple ID for iCloud on my iPhone 5 and my iPad 2. I can clear the password but it doesn't give me am option to clear the Apple ID under Settings>iCloud Account Information.

Hi Friend,
Delete the account (in Settings>iCloud), then set up a new account using her ID. If you need to migrate any iCloud data to the new account, be sure to choose "Keep on My iDevice" when prompted about what to do with the iCloud data; then when setting up the new account, to merge the data with the new account be sure to choose Merge.
Hope it helps

How do I change my Apple ID for iCloud without losing my data?

I really seem to have made a mess of my transition to iCloud :-( I have had an Apple ID for many years - it's my @gmail.com email address. I also have an @mac.com email address and, because I was a subscriber to MobileMe I have an @me.com email address, too.
I only recently upgraded my MacBook to OS X 10.7.4 after buying an iPad and deciding that I would like to be able to sync information between my MacBook, iPhone (3GS) and iPad.
I believe my problems started when I bought the iPad about a month ago on a trip to New York. I didn't have my MacBook with me to check which Apple ID I should use. I set up my iPad with my @gmail.com address as my Apple ID. When I returned home I discovered that my iCloud ID on my MacBook is my @mac.com email address.
I thought I could simply change the Apple ID on my iPad but I've not found any way that I can do that.
The problems I'm experiencing relate mainly to Calendars - I now have multiple entries for events on all my devices. I also have multiple entries for people in my Address Book and Contacts.
What I would like to do is -
1) retain my @gmail.com address as my Apple ID for the iTunes Store and purchases - this is the one I've always used and I have lots of purchases associated with it.
2) change my Apple ID for iCloud from my @gmail.com address to my @mac.com address so that I can also sync my Mail and, hopefully, eliminate the occurrence of multiple calender entries
If I were to delete my current @gmail.com address Apple ID on my iPad will I lose the data associated with this ID?
Cheers

Thank you for responding to my question so promptly! My Apple ID for my iCloud account on my MacBook is the correct (i.e. my @mac.com) email address. Do I need to sign out and then sign back in after I have changed/updated my details on my iPad?
When I look at the 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars' details on my iPad under the heading 'Accounts' it first shows my @me.com account and the items under that account are 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Find My iPad' - when I expand the account details it shows that my iCloud Account is actually my @mac.com email adddress.
The second entry is iCloud which is currently my @gmail.com account. Under this account are 'Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, Reminders, PhotoStream, Documents & Data, Backup.
The third account is headed Gmail and is, indeed, my @gmail.com account, too. Under this account it shows 'Mail, Calendars, Notes'.
Am I correct in suspecting that the reason for my having multiple occurrences of both events in Calendars and people in Contacts is because more than one account is syncing Contacts and Calendars?
Thank you for your help
Cheers

How do you change your Apple ID for icloud?

I have had one email address as my Apple ID for App store, itunes and icloud for all my devices (MacBook pro, iMac, iPhone4 and iPad2). Recently I changed nettwork/internett operators and now I have big problems with my icloud. My old email address and password has been shut down, and I had to create a new adress and password. I successfully change my Apple ID and password for itunes and App store, but I can't change my Apple ID for icloud. I am told that if I want to close down my icloud account on my MacBook Pro data will be lost. (I have stored my documents on icloud too) I keep getting a popup on my screen saying there is a problem with my Apple ID (the old email address) and that I should fill in my password. If I fill in the password for this icloud ID (also my old Apple ID for App store and itunes, I keep getting the message that it is invalid. How do I get into icloud to manage and edit the Apple ID for icloud so that it works on my mac and all the other devices I have?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't change your ID if it's a me/mac address, otherwise;
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

How can I change my Apple ID for iCloud on iPhone 5 with iOS7?

How can I change my Apple ID for iCloud on iPhone 5 with iOS7? When I updated to iOS7 it kept my old ID on some features and my new one on others. I was able to change my Apple ID on all apps except iCloud. I don't have the original email account I used when setting up my iPhone with the old Apple ID and I have no clue what the password was. It appears I first need to turn off "Find my iPhone" which requires the old Apple ID, then I can delete the iCloud account. I want to use my current Apple ID to be able to use the "Find my iPhone" feature in iOS7. I hope someone can help!!

That doesn't help. It's an old email that doesn't work anymore. Please read the entire post. iOS7 won't let you delete iCloud unless you have the password for the old/inactive email/Apple ID.
You never mentioned that you didn't have access to that email. There are some specific steps you can perform to retrieve the old Apple ID password.

When you go into iCloud there is an option to delete the account. The help desk advised me that using this option only deletes it on the phone and not the actual Apple ID. If you delete it you are given an option to keep content associated with this ID on the phone, which may be a good idea unless you want to completely refresh your phone.
Once you delete the account, you can then enter a new Apple ID.
I've just done it and it worked fine, leaving the original Apple ID intact and working on another phone.

My iPhone will not allow me to edit my Apple ID in iCloud and so I cannot sync my phone. How do I change my Apple ID for iCloud for my phone?

I recently changed my email address and updated my Apple account profile to reflect the new address. This changed my Apple ID for signing into Apple store and making purchases as expected. I am however undable to get iCloud account to recognize the new Apple ID. I have gone in through settings on my iPhone and in iCloud Account Information attempted to change the Apple ID but the field is muted and will not permit editing. I have looked all through Support in iTunes Store and cannot find any information on how to get iCloud to accept my new Apple ID.
Can anyone shed some light on this issue?

My 'Find my iphone' is still on, which is keeping me from deleting my account. How do I get around this?
If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current 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.

I can't change my Apple ID for iCloud on my iPhone or iPad...

Recently my email was hacked. I've changed my Apple ID email address and my Mac now works with this ID. However, I can't delete my iCloud accounts on my iPhone or iPad as it asks for the old password (for the old ID) to turn off "find my" and this account is no longer in use...any help?
Thanks,
Lewis

If the old ID is yours, and if your current 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.

HT204053 Question changing apple Id for iCloud on iPad

I set up my sisters iPad the other day. I was testing out the iCloud function. And I entered my own iCloud Apple ID. Unfortunately, I can now not change that. So, she is having to use my iCloud account. I need to be able to change the setting on the iPad to her iCloud account. How do I do that?
