Changing Apple ID password

I have changed my Apple ID with verification from apple, but my phone still only recognises the original one.  I tried to delete that account using original password, and new password for the new id, but neither will work - can anyone help please?  Apple in NZ is not open today.  I would like to delete the original one and then enter the new one but it wont accept either password.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset...
Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Then Sign In using the preferred Apple ID.
Note:
Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID

  • How to change Apple ID Password IF...

    How to change Apple ID Password IF I forgot:
    - The answers to Security Questions (it may sounds silly but I don't even remember making Security Questions).
    and
    - Don't have access anymore to the Rescue Address (I used my very old email which is no longer active).
    So is there any way I could change my Password?
    And now I want to change my Security Questions and my Rescue Address as well.
    Hope someone could come with the right solution.
    Thank you very much.

  • Junked old macbook for a new one. changed apple id password from a different mac. i want to login and it asks for name and password. no matter what i type i cant seem to login. any way help?

    junked old macbook for a new one. changed apple id password from a different mac. i want to login and it asks for name and password. no matter what i type i cant seem to login. why cant i just enter my apple id and password. or is there a way to change whatever name and password are on the new one from another mac so i can login. anything helps...thanks

    Just open System Preferences>Users & Groups and unlock the preference pane with your root password.
    Set the New Account to be an Administrator and fill in the rest of the data and then click "Create User".
    I would suggest using this user to be YOU with admin capabilities. I wouldn't use the root user - too much damage could occur if you're not sure what you're doing. If you have files, etc., that you want to move to this account, simply but them in the Shared folder - or if you 'rescued' some old files and the like from your 'trashed' MBP, you can put them in your NEW admin account folders.
    Hope I've explained myself well - call back with any questions!

  • Changed apple ID password, but cant sign in to apple app store or facetimme

    I couldn't access to apple ID so I changed the password follwing steps to change apple ID password. Then I couldnt at least sign in to apple store, Facetime, Icoloud. What should I do?

    This sounds similar to a problem I had, though I may be wrong. First sign out of everything, the app store and icloud both have there own way of signing out so make sure to do them both.  To sign out of app store go to featured tab then scroll to the bottom and click apple ID, for icloud you sign out under settings. When signing out of iclould you will need to use your old password, so you may need to go back online to the apple website and change your id and password to what it was before.  Once you've signed out of everything go apple website and change you ID and password to what you want it to be. Then go and sign back into everything.  I hope this helps. It might not be the best way but it worked for me.

  • FaceTime not working after changing Apple ID Password

    Using an iPad 2, FaceTime and Messages was working fine.  Since changing my Apple ID password, FaceTime and Messages are no longer working.  When I enter the the new password within FaceTime it states the password is not correct.  I'm able to update Apps on the iPad using the new Apple ID password.  Any idea how to get Facetime and Messages working again on my iPad?

    I recently changed my Apple ID and, initially hit all sorts of problems (ML & iOS5.1). AppleTV very confused, Calandar duplicating entries on an iPad, but losing them on the Mac (but being correct on iCloud.com).
    The solution ended up being straightforward, if unnecessarily annoying.
    On the Mac - in SysPrefs (iCloud) turn off all syncs and sign out. Delete items from the Mac (in response to the prompt).
    On the iPad - in settings do the same.
    On the ATV - turn off Home Sharing.
    In iTunes - log out of the Apple Store
    Sign out on iCloud.com and sign back in using a @me.com email address (not the Apple ID)
    Reestablish iCloud sync (etc) by signing in using the email address (not the ID).
    It appears that everything collects the new Apple ID using the email address and they all play nicely together again.

  • Why Can't I Change Apple ID Password to a NEW password?

    For security purposes, I am changing my Apple ID password swapping out letters in an old password for certain numbers.  (For example, changing As to 4 and O to 0 the word "password" would become "p4sswOrd")  I have changed 2 of the 10 characters in the password yet when I click update, I get an error message that says, "new password must not have been used in the past year" even though the password is different and has never been used.

    I'm having the same problem too:

  • Can't change Apple ID password on ipad 2

    Some how, some one has hacked my email on my ipad 2, so I have had to change my password.
    I'm trying change all my passwords now, but when I try to change my apple password, it tells me that it is sending the new info to my email address, but it never turns up.
    I have checked my address is right. I've sent and received emails to and from myself, but I haven't received anything from anybody else, which is strange.
    How can I reset my apple I D password, if I can't get emails?
    HELP!

  • HT3819 How to change Apple ID password on Apple TV

    I've just had to change my Apple ID password and now when I turn on my Apple TV  the message appears 'Account Verification failed. Password can't be verified. Sign in again. I try to click ok and get no response so am unable to progress from the screen!

    You will have to "reset" your Apple TV:  From the main menu, select Settings, General, scroll down to Reset (the next to the last option before Restart).  During this reset you will prompted to input your Apple ID info with your user name and your new password.  Good luck.

  • Issues with changing Apple Mail password!?!

    I just tried changing my Apple Mail password in the Mail Preferances window, within the incoming mail server "password" field.  I saved my changes, and now every 2-5 minutes I get an error message telling me to enter my mail password in the pop-up field.  I do so, and then I get the error message again 2-5 minutes later!!  What's going on here??
    I'm also not receieving incoming mail now...
    Please let me know if you have a solution!

    sounds like a keychain issue.
    Try this:
    go to Utilities > Keychain Access and delete all entries relating to that mail account.
    in the keychain Access Menu, do Keychain First Aid. Enter your passord, pick repair, and click start.
    Go back to Mail and delete that account (don't just inactivate it, delete it).
    I don't know if a restart is necessary at this point, but it wouldn't hurt.
    go back to mail and recreate the account

  • Changed Apple ID password, now iMessage for iPad will not work

    Hey there,
    I changed my Apple ID password this morning but when I tried to use iMessage on my iPad this evening - and was prompted for the new password - iMessage would no longer work. My Apple ID and my iMessage email addresses are different and, although I would like to believe this is the problem, the fact is the messages are being sent to my email inbox rather than to my iPad iMessage app. Further, the "send" button is disabled when I try to send anything from the iPad.
    Any ideas?

    Also, I just tried FaceTime and that is also not working.
    The email address I would like to use appears in the list of email addresses in Settings>iMessage, but it is greyed out so I cannot access it. My apple id keeps appearing there despite my constant clicking on "forget this address." I tried using my apple id as the default email address but even that will not work.
    I'm about ready to throw all things iDevice at a wall! 

  • Changed apple-ID password - cannot connect to icloud via macbook air but it works on iphone and itunes..

    My Ipad got stolen soon after i updated in to ios7.
    the idiot i am, i did not activate find my ipad, so i changed all my passwords, including the apple-id.
    now i have the following problem:
    on my iphone, everything works as usual.
    however, i cannot connect to icloud via my macbook air, if i type in my password (and trust me i have already changed it a few times, it always works on the phone but not on the macbook) i get the following message: "Sie konnten aufgrund eines Kommunikationsproblems mit iCloud nicht angemeldet werden." which means more or less that i could not connect to icloud due to a communication problem.
    does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
    thank you!
    regards

    Sign out of iCloud, the sign in with the new ID/ Password.

  • Cant install adobe photoshop, computer wont recognise password. changed apple id password and still no success

    i cant install photoshop cs 10 as pomputer wont recognise my password. have reset my password but still no sucess.

    The password it is asking for is not your Apple ID password, more then likely.
    It is the password you use to Log on to your system. That may or may not be your Apple ID password. If you didn't use your Apple ID and the password for that ID when you first set the system up then it is not that password.
    If you have forgotten you Log On password you can reset it.
