Changed my apple I'd email address but my iPad still asks for the old one

Changed my Apple ID email on the computer I run ITunes on. Opened my iPad and tried to update an App and it asks for my old email as username and therefore won't accept the new password.

I think it might be because I have not had this ipad linked to my Apple ID for over 90 days? Only got it a couple of weeks ago. It's so frustrating!
Thank you for the prompt reply.

  • I changed my Apple ID a while ago but my iPad is asking for the old one to set up iCloud?

    I changed my Apple ID a while ago because I got a new email address, and it works fine when I am downloading apps or music etc. but I just got the iOS 6 update on my iPad and it's asking for the password to my old apple ID to set up iCloud, iMessage, and FaceTime. I followed the steps to reset my password, but it's not working because its asking about the old email address and I can't seem to change it. It's an optional step but I'd like to be able to have this stuff set up on my iPad. Thanks for the help!

    If you need to change the ID for iMessage, go to Settings>Massages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you need to change the ID for FaceTime, do the same thin in Settings>FaceTime.
    If you need to change the ID for iCloud, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

    You cannot change your Apple ID. You can get a new one if you want, but all of your Apps and media are linked to yoru old Apple ID. And no, Apple won't transfer your old ID purchases to yoru new ID.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If it's iCloud that is asking for these details:
    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.
    This article provides more information about Activation Lock.
    If it's iTunes asking for these details:
    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 > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • I changed my apple I.D email address but the receipts are still going to my old email address, how do I make it so the receipts go to my new email address?

    If you want to change your iCloud ID or password on your phone go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated information.  Note: this only deletes the account and any synced data from your phone, not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.

  • HT4759 the iCloud Login shows my old email address as my login and asks for an old p/w which I don't remember.

    How do I update iCloud on my iPhone to show my new login and p/w?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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 > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)

  • Time machine - On backup disk change still looking for the old one

    Hi,
    I had a backup disk from my D-Link NAS, which died, I bought a Synology Diskstation and enabled Time machine.
    I can see the hard drive in time machine preferences, I can select it and everything seems to be ok. Until a backup is performed, at the moment system says it can't find the original (D-Link) disk. Even in console app I can see it search for the afp for D-Link.
    I tried to disable time machine, reboot. Also remove the /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist
    Also using command line util tmutil it fails.
    tmutil destinationinfo
    ====================================================
    Name          : Backup
    Kind          : Network
    URL           : afp://backup@DataCenter_AFP_Backup._afpovertcp._tcp.local/Backup
    ID            : 16EE688A-9FE1-40EE-8495-84BC56FD63B7
    tmutil removedestination 16EE688A-9FE1-40EE-8495-84BC56FD63B7
    but It won't remove it, destinatininfo prints the same result
    I tried to set destination with the new afp path, but no change.
    Any idea what else I could try?

    That device is unsuitable for use with Time Machine. I know this isn't the answer you want, and I also know that the manufacturer says the device will work with Time Machine, and that it usually seems to work. Except when you try to restore, and find that you can't.
    If you want network backup with Time Machine, use as the destination either an Apple Time Capsule or an external hard drive connected to another Mac or to an 802.11ac AirPort base station. Only the 802.11ac base stations support Time Machine, not any older model.
    If you're determined to keep using the NAS for backup, your only recourse for any problems that result is to the manufacturer (which will blame Apple.)

  • HT1689 Changed apple ID but it always asks for the old I'd

    I changed my apple ID but every time I sign in it asks for the old one, even if already signed in on new id.  Please advise.

    Did you create a new account or update the old one ? If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

  • I have changed my username and password but the apps are still asking for my old username and password. How do I change that

    I have changed my username and password for my apple account but the apps previously linked to it are still asking for the old info. And I don,t know it so that's why I updated it

    Apps are permanently tied to the ID and password used to purchase them. If you do not remember that information, you cannot update them. If you ned these apps, you will have to repurchase them under your new ID.
