Changing email address for Apple ID

My sister has a bit of a problem. She has an old email address associated with her itunes store account. She has since purchased a Mobile Me account and wants to use that as her Apple ID for iTunes but she doesn't want to lose her purchases. We tried editing her account info but she can't change the email address to the Mobile Me address because iTunes sees it as an already created Apple ID. Does anyone know a way to use the Mobile Me address and still have all of the purchased content from the old ID work with it?
Thanks,
DJ

Changing email addresses for AppleID

I have recently changed my email address for an active AppleID. However, for various reason I would like to change it to another email address that already has an unused, mistakenly created, AppleID attached to it. I know I can't cancel an AppleID, but can I:
- reallocate the unused AppleID to a new email;
- rellocate my active appleID to the email address that was previously linked to the old unused AppleID?
Would love to know if this works before I start messing around.

Yes and yes. You can use an old email for the unused ID (even one that is no longer functional). You do not have to verify when you change it - it just has to be an email address. Once you have changed the email on the unused ID, you should be able to use it for your active Apple ID.
Cheers,

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.

HT204053 Same email address for apple devices

Can I use the same email address for itunes and app store for my all my apple devices?

It sounds as though you are trying to create a new iTunes store account using the details of an existing account, you need to sign into your old account not create a new one. Navigate to settings > store, scroll down to the bottom, tap on your Apple ID and then tapthe "sign out" button. Then sign in again using the iTunes store details you wish to use.

Change email address for icloud

I have 2 iphones, that for some reason are both linking up to the same account. I want to delete an icloud account, i cant remember the password and it says my other information is wrong (ie dob etc) i don't know which email address its linked to (its not the icloud username email address for some reason) I tried going into icloud on my phone and it just keeps saying verifying and asks me to input password.

If it says verifying in Settings > iCloud, try to keep hitting cancel over and over until it eventually stops, then hit delete account at the bottom.
If that doesn't work, you will need to contact Apple to figure out where that Apple ID is linking to so you can get it reset and removed.

How can i change the email address for apple id and icloud?, how can i change the email address for apple id and icloud?

i had to change the email address to my apple id. now when ever i try to use imessage or the icloud, it wont let me because it is using the old email address. i cant change it on my phone and idk what to do on my computer!

If the old ID is yours, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go 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 didn't change at all! What can I do for this?

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)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

HT5621 Steps to change the primary email address for Apple ID, want to use alternative email (even after removed from lisetd mail addresses it will not allow me. current Apple ID mail address does no longer exist therefore changing required

apple ID does not allow me to change primary listed email address, this address does no longer exist and now need to get a secendary listed email address to become primery.

I had a similar problem, which prevented me changing my personal data on iCloud/apple etc. I found the answer on the apple web-site, "appleid.apple.com".
This site lets you change your primary country, and so lets you use the app store.

HT4436 Changing email address for my Apple ID for iCloud

Hi,
I am wondering how to change the email address under my iCloud account. My sister logged into my itunes account under my Id and setup an iCloud account. Now everytime I try to log into iCloud I get all of her backup data. How can I remove her email address and setup under mine.
Thanks

Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account (this disconnects the device from icloud but doesn't delete any data on icloud or on other devices). then log back in using your account. Of course if your sister has taken over your account, then you need to log her off your account and back in using her account.
