Change primary email address and telephone numbers

change primary email address and telephone numbers

I want my Itunes/apps purchase emails to go to a different email address than my appleID.
I have changed the primary email address and even added an alternative.
But when I made my last purchase it sent the DO-NOT-REPLY itunes receipts to the originaly email address (which is still the appleID)
yes the new primary email address is verfied.
Am i missing another setting somewhere? in tunes or icloud?  I just dont want the itunes info going to the AppleID (or original set up email address)
Thanks,

    I want to change my primary email address, and use one already associated with my account why can I not do this ?, I want to change my primary email address, and use one already associated with my account why can I not do this ?  I don't want to create another one if I really don't need to
    Any ideas ?

    I'm afraid that once an address has been associated with an Apple ID you can't re-use it in any way. You will have to create another address (such as a free on from GMail or Yahoo for example).

  • I recently changed my email address and switched it to my primary address on my Apple ID account.  It works in iTunes, but when I open up iCloud, my old ID shows and I can't access it to change anything.  Can't ask for email change for password

    I recently changed my email address and updated my Apple ID name to the new address.  It worked for iTunes and apps, but when I bring up iCloud, my old ID name shows.  I can'tr access it to change it since my security questions don't work and when I request an email to change password, it says it sent one but I do not receive anything.  Just need to klnow how to change my Applle ID on iCloud if I can't access the old one.  I'm afraid if I delete the account and open a new one, I'll lose all of my calendar. 

    If you have 'Find My iPad' activated on the iPad it will cause this problem. You will have to contact Support for help. Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'More Products and Services', then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password' and click 'Continue'.

  • Delete primary email address and reset to use the ...

    How can I delete the primary email address and reset to use the second email address?
    Because I cannot remember the password (always used automatic sign in option) and I no longer have access to the primary email address.
    Now I cannot sign-in to my skype account from any other computer.  I do not want to loose the skype account as I have many phone numbers and contact information saved.
    Thank you and Merry Christmas

    if your account has a billing or purchase history in the last 6 months, you can request for a new password without the need of your registered email address. just click the link below;

    Then after you reset your password, you can change your primary email address.

  • How can I change Primary Email Address to icloud email?

    I have an apple id been using for many years.  I would like to change the primary email address.  I would like to create a new icloud email address and use that as primary email for my apple id.
    When I try to do this in the Manage Apple ID it says that I cannot pick an email address associate with apple domain.
    How do I do this???
    Essentially I would like to start over with an icloud email address but keep all my existing itunes purchases etc.   If I create a new Apple ID with icloud email id I am hosed and cannot copy over my purchases.   If I stay with existing Apple ID, I can change primary email address but I can't use icloud email.
    Any suggestions??

    While you can't currently change your Apple ID to a Mobile/iCloud email address, I found a solution that helps with a related problem.
    Suppose you've recently got an iCloud email address, but Apple are still sending all your iTunes Store, App Store and Mac App Store receipts to your old gmail address (the one that's still your Apple ID). And suppose they're also sending all the Apple Support Communities notifcation emails to your old gmail address. How do you change it? How do you fix it?
    Well the option exists, but it is hidden away in a weird place. To get Apple sending all of their receipts and notifications to your new iCloud email address...
    • Go to your country's Apple Store website http://store.apple.com/
    • Click on the Account button in the top-right corner
    • Under Account Settings, click on Change your default shipping or billing info
    • Sign in with your usual Apple ID and password
    • The email address listed under Payment Information is the key
    • Click on Edit next to Payment Information and change that email address to your iCloud address
    That's all you have to do.

  • @me as apple ID/change primary email address

    I tried to change my apple ID to my alternative apple ID which is a @me.com address, but I can't sinceit seems to be apple domain address and that can't be primary apple ID.  But I'm trying to use my @me.com account now as my main email address for all my mail, so how can I change it within my apple account and not receive mails from apple anymore on my old account (which is still my primary email address and apple ID) but to have those sent to my @me.com address?
    thanks!

    That usually means it's associated with another ID or used somewhere else.

  • Forgot to sign out of old id and changed icloud email address and cant sign out of find my phone

    I have a iphone 4s and changed icloud email address and forgot to sign out of find my phone. How can I turn it off to change to the new email address that I changed in icloud?

    To change the iCloud ID 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.  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 on your device, 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.

  • How can i change  Primary Email Address in apple ID

    How can i change  Primary Email Address in apple ID.

    You cannot change a *.mac, *.me or *.icloud email address - any Apple issued email address cannot be changed.  Only non-apple issued primary email addresses are editable.

    You can contact the AppleID support team at http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact and ask them what can be done.

  • I changed my email address and apple id, but havebeen unable to change my cloud id

    I changed my email address and changed my apple id and password, but have been unable to change the icloud id. How?

    If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. Then 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 and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was.  You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so.  You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • How do i delete my primary email address and use one of my alternate email adresses as my primary email address

    how do i delete my primary email address and use one of my alternate email adresses as my primary email address

    Hey freightguy,
    It sounds like you want to change your Apple ID. Follow the steps in this link to do so:
    Before you change your Apple ID:
    Sign out of all Apple features and services that you use with your current Apple ID.
    Make sure that the email address you want to use for your Apple ID meets these conditions:
    The email address is one that you use regularly, because it will be the primary email address for your Apple ID.
    The email address is not associated with any other Apple ID.
    The email address is not an iCloud email address, which is already an Apple ID. iCloud email addresses end with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com.
    To change your Apple ID, follow these steps:
    Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
    If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
    In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
    Enter the email address you want to use, then click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
    Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
    When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your renamed Apple ID.
    If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID.
    After you see a message indicating that verification is complete, remember to update all of the stores and services that you use with your Apple ID.

  • How to change primary email address

    how do I change primary email address. Of course I won.t be able to receive any responses because my primary email address no longer exist. I.m curious why Paypal will not let me change my address on the profile page.

    I found a resolution to this problem.    I had been using Chrome when I had the same problem as you.  I had to go to the Paypal website from Internet Explorer.  Then you can go into your account settings and add a new e-mail address and go through the process of confirming it.  At that point you can click on the edit button for the NON-primary email address and it will take you to the edit page where there is a box you can check to make it your primary address.  Click on that box and then you can go back and delete the old primary address.  Hope this helps.  Worked for me. 

  • I changed my email address and my user id will not update for icloud!

    Yes, I went into the Appleid and updated the email address there.  The problem?? Icloud on my Iphone 4! It does not allow you to change the User ID in settings! I've tried going to store and sign out and sign back in. Did not work! Has anyone else had this issue??

    If the old ID 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 recently changed my email address and need to change my icloud account on both my itunes and iphone. How do I do this without completely wiping the phone.
    Also I tried to update to iOS6 and it is asking for my password under my old signin and locked me out of my phone.
    What can I do?
    Thanks

    This explains how to change your ID: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621.  After changing your ID you will need to go to Settings>iCloud, delete the existing account (which only deletes it from your device, not from iCloud), then sign back in with the new ID.  To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll before deleting the existing account.
    If you are signed into your account on your Mac, you will need to go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with the new ID.
