Changing email address at log in

I am trying to change my account id to my new email address. I have changed location and no longer have the same email address that was my old user id with my apple account. When I try to change my user id to my new email address which is through .Mac, I am told that I am not allowed to do this. why am I not allowed to use my .Mac address as my new user id and how do I fix this? Thanks for your help in advance.

IIRC, you can't change your Apple ID, you have to create a new one

  • Log-in information - change email address

    Hi,
    I would like to change the email address of my account. I can modify other accountdetails, but not the email address. How can I change it?
    Thanks for any support in that case.

    Unfortunately, you cannot. The software OTN uses to run the forums doesn't support changing email addresses. Your best option is probably to create a new account with the new email address.

  • Changing email address on iphone APPS page

    i recently changed my itunes email address. when i tried to update my apps on my iphone 3g, it brought up my former email address to log in with, which was unsuccessful, as i changed my email address?? any help??

    Sign in to the store on your computer, then sync your phone. When you sync your iPhone or iPod touch with your computer, the account last used to access the iTunes Store from the computer is synced to the mobile device for use in the iTunes Store from the device as well. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311

    Keep the phone's Wifi switched off until you actively want to use it. That will probably save on battery usage as well.
    Thanks for the idea, but unfortunately that would not help as I use it on the WiFi at home quite a lot, especially when I have the PC switched off.
    Sorry, I got the wrong end of the stick. You need to set the phone to prioritise wifi connections, but I don't know the procedure for iPhone as I have Android. You could try simply deleting BT WiFi from the list of connections to see if it gets a lower priority next time you connect to it.

  • Changing email address on iCloud account

    My email was hacked a while ago, and I managed to change email addresses on most accounts I can't seem to change the address on my iCloud account, any help please?????!!!!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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 > 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 have an iPhone 5 and after changing email addresses am having syncing issues with Outlook.

    My calendar syncs from my computer to my iPhone but not from my iPhone to my computer.  It used to sync both directions.  I'm guessing the same is true of contacts.  I've gone through all the tabs in iTunes.  The calendars are checked properly but I can't find anywhere to say update information on computer using information of the iPhone.  I fell like that used to be an option.  I've tried restarting everything to no avail.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

    And I forgot to mention I have just changed email addresses so with the old email it was all working then with the new email I'm only functioning one direction.

  • How can I broadcast a changed email address to my contacts list

    how can I broadcast a changed email address to my contacts list?

    There is one thing to be careful about though when using the "Send Updates" feature in Address book to notify your contacts about address/contact info changes. 
    Addressbook will automatically include your personal vCard at the end of the email message that goes out to your list.  I did not realize this at the time and it royally burned me.  My default address card had a lot of extra personal information contained within it that I did not want people to see.  There was no indication that the vCard would automatically be included nor any way to disable this feature just before sending the "update" email.  As a result, my list received my private information and the only thing I could do was to send a new email to the list manually, minus the vCard attachment, requesting that they please delete the first email in favor of this new one.  I'm hoping that most will disregard the vCard, though I fear the damage has been done.
    I later discovered that the preferences now include a checkbox for enabling/disabling a "private me card", which allows you to control which content is included in your vCard information.  This is handy now, but I wished the default had been to have vCards turned off / not included automatically, since it was a feature I didn't discover until AFTER my updates had been sent!

  • How can I change email address on my ICloud account?  It won't let me change old e-mail address.

    How can I change email address on Icloud?  It won't let me delete old email address so I can enter new email address.

    Are you trying to change the email address which forms the login? Or the @icloud.com address you created when you opened the account? You can't change the latter.
    You can change the login address as long as it isn't an @mac.com, @me.com or @icloud.com address.
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Create a new email address, for example  at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.
