Changed servers now need to change new email ID on ICloud but can't?

After changing service providers and new email addresses, I have been going through the process of updating my programs.  I have created a new ID in ICloud (new email address) but can't seem to be able to transfer (and get rid of) old ID email?

I'm with JC4567, I have my old email turn up when going into my iCloud settings. It won't let me change the email to my new one (this new email and password are already updated on my PC. Why can't it just automatically update all other devices with it???), it's grey'ed out so I can't click and edit. I read somewhere that if we delete (older ios) or log off (newer ios) iCloud in the Settings then we can log in with the new AppleID and password. When I tried that it brought up my old AppleID and demanded my old password to my to turn off the "Find My iPhone" part in the iCloud. So I couldn't delete/log out of iCloud without turning off Fimd My iPhone. Catch 22. How do we fix that?

  • I have changed the email account for icloud but my sistem preferences windows is blocked on the previous email account

    I have changed the email account for icloud but the sistem preferences window is blocked on the previous email account and it does't work.
    The sistem preferences window doesn't accept no one passwords.

    You will need to sign out completely in System Preferences>iCloud (click the 'Sign Out' button) and sign back in again with the new ID.

    I changed my email address on my account at iTunes.  It is my iTunes ID.  I have synced my iPad with iTunes.  I have Apps that need to be updated on my iPad, but my old email address is imbedded on the password screen.  How do I get my new email address there so that my submission goes through to iTunes?

  • How can I change my email name on icloud?

    I want to change my email address on icloud but it is grayed out and will not let me change it.  Do I need to delete my account and set up a new one?

    First you go to https://appleid.apple.com, log in, and change the email address on the account. Then on the phone go to Settings/iCloud, scroll down and delete the account. You will need to enter the password for the old email address. Then go back to Settings/iCloud and add it back using the new email address.

  • Can i change my email address on icloud account on phone? to email i used on new mac ?? do they need to be the same for optimal use?

    can i change my email address on icloud account on phone? to email i used on new mac ?? do they need to be the same for optimal use?

    Yes the Apple ID is the thing that ties your devices to you and shares your information and content between them.
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    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.

  • I  need change main email address in iCloud, make alias email main

    i  need change main email address in iCloud, make alias email main

    I'm afraid you can't do this. Once you've chosen the main @icloud.com address when you set up the account you can't change it (other than by creating a completely new account); and you can't make an alias the main address in the account it's in or any other account.

    Thanks

    Is your phone signed into an old iCloud ID ("email address") and you need to change it to your current ID?  Is so, there is a way around this.
    Otherwise, you can either try resetting your password at https://iforgot.apple.com or by contacting Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Lost or forgotten Apple ID password, or you can back up your phone to your computer instead.  To do this, connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.  Then go to File>Devices>Back Up.

  • How do I change the email account for icloud on my iphone only

    How do I change the email account for icloud on my iphone6 only.  I don't want to change my ipad or my husband's iphone6.  Currently all 3 devices have the same gmail account associated with them.  I have created a new & separate apple id and I want that on my phone but I can't figure out how to delete his email from my phone.

    To change iCloud accounts you have to go to Settings>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with your other ID to create your new account.  If you want to migrate a copy of the iCloud data to the new account, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save Image.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out, choose Keep on My iPhone and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted.  Then sign back in with your new Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload the data to your new account.  Once you are on a separate account you can go to iCloud.com and delete your husband's data from your account (and he can do the same with yours).
    Just be aware that the current @icloud.com email address cannot be moved to the new account, nor can the current my photo stream album (which is why you need to save any my photo stream photos you want to keep to your iPhone before signing out of the existing account).

  • I changed my email on my ICloud

    I changed my email on my icloud due to it not being active anymore (the email) now i cant access my icloud because it wants me to verify the email thru my old email which i no longer have!

    Go to appleid.apple.com, log in with new ID. Change 'apple ID and primary email address' back to old ID.
    Delete the icloud account on the iphone.  (It should let you now that the ID was changed back).
    Go to appleid.apple.com, log in with OLD ID. Change 'apple ID and primary email address' back to NEW ID.
    And sign back into icloud with the new ID.

  • HT201342 how can i change my email address on icloud account, it is already changed on my apple id

    How can I change my email address on icloud, I have already changed it on my apple id, but it still is asking for lmy old email and password and I can not back up or anything?

    Hello RousePryor
    If the iCloud account ends with an @icloud.com, then that is something that you cannot change it. If that is not the case, then you will need to sign out and may need to change it back to the old Apple ID to do so.

    updated to Lion, from snow leopard after updating all necessary programs & system, recieved emails saying it was successful changing to icloud but can i access iclound No - nothing works! webmail & mail - also reset password.

    Ok 1st one. The warning restriction message relates to this line in main.cf:
    smtpd_helo_restrictions = permit_sasl_authenticated  permit_mynetworks  check_helo_access hash:/etc/postfix/helo_access  reject_non_fqdn_hostname  reject_invalid_hostname  permit reject_invalid_helo_hostname
    The last reject occurs after the single word "permit" and is ignored.
    However, that's not the problem.
    I'm not exactly sure what's happening, but this might be a clue.
    It would appear that either postfix is not being able to create the socket for private/policy or it's somehow created with the wrong permissions.  You might need to ramp up the debug level to get a better idea.
    You could check if it's being created by "netstat -a | grep private/policy" in terminal.
    My guess is that it's not being created because there is no setup statement in your master.cf file, but I don't understand why postfix would be looking for it if it isn't set up.  Private/policy I think relates to grey listing.  Maybe gives you a hint.
