Different Icloud password from present Apple-id

I tried to upgrade my icloud account with more space but it is connected to an old e-mail adress and I cannot remember the password! When I login with my appleid - connected to my new mail adress - I don't see how I can do anything about the icloud. I tried to delete the icloud account on my device but I am asked for the password connected to the old email adress. Can anyone help?
Thank you.

You use an Apple ID to associate with an icloud account. An Apple ID can only have one password.
Can you explain what you mean by "use a different password for icloud and apple id"? An Apple ID, which has a password connected with it, and an icloud account are two different things. You use the ID as the icloud account "name".

How could I reset my iCloud password because my apple id password is different

How could I reset my iCloud password because my apple id password is different

You can't restore the iPhone without the original Apple ID. But Apple IDs are never deleted (unless you go through a long process with Apple Security). Why do you think the ID no longer exists?

How can I find my wife's iPhone? She has a different iCloud account from me.

How can I find my wife's iPhone? She has a different iCloud account from me. I can find all of my devices on my iCloud account. But since the last software update we needed to set up separate iCloud accounts in order to be able to use iMessage independently.

Interesting. This never occurred to be a problem to me but I think I can see your point. Leave feedback for Apple on this here:

If you delete the iCloud account from the iPod yo will be offered the option to retain the data on the iPod. The data is Contact, Calendars and other information listed in Settings>iCod. It does not effect the apps and music and other things on the iPod. For more info see:

How to backup multiple iphones with different iCloud accounts but same apple id?

I would like to back up 3 idevices each with different icloud accounts to itunes. But they use the same apple id so that itune purchases can be installed on each device (2 iphones and 1 ipad).
All I want to do is create a backup in case the phones need to be restored. I also want to back up before downloading iOS 8.
The Macbook Pro that I will back up to has one user and one itunes library.
Is this possible without mixing up address books and contacts etc? Appreciate if some one could direct me to detail step-by-step instructions if they exist or please tell me how I can do this.
Thanks.

With Family Sharing they don't need to have the same Apple ID anymore.
But backups to iTunes are kept separate among multiple devices; Apple ID and iCloud isn't involved at all. Just make sure the devices do not have the same name.

Can I recover my iCloud password from an iPad that is currently connected?

With all of Apple's (and the rest of the world's) increased intrusions by hackers, I have become very nervous when the slightest glitch happens on any of my devices. I was working on my laptop and it seemed that whenever I used iCloud Keychain the screen would glitch. I freaked out, admittedly, and jumped on my iPad, quickly changing the iCloud password. I didn't write it down because I've gotten used to the keychain storing all of the. I also thought I could reset rather easily through Apple. And, I thought I could remember it for just a few minutes and then properly store.
But, I didn't and I can't, and I have Two-step activated and the most recent RK code is not working. I have 4 trusted devices on account and access to all of them. And, I have the iPad in which I changed the password on, still actively signed in on that account with new password.
I have tried:
1. Apple Support - Good Luck
2. Multiple variations of the RK where my handwriting could be in question. - Odds of winning Lottery
3. Multiple variations of what I think I changed the password to. - Odds of winning Powerball
4. I have been able to make an encrypted backup of it currently and tried sifting through files - Way over my head
I know the password has to be available somewhere in my iOS. I know Elcomsoft could get it, but I can't afford $800+
My Wife and I have used iCloud to store all family photos, videos and irreplaceable memories and Apple's answer has been "TS!"
If anyone can be of any assistance, PLEASE HELP!

How do I delete my "pre-entered" iCloud password from other devices on my account?

I set up "Find My iPhone" on my kids' phones by logging into iCloud on each device. But now, my iCloud password is now "pre-entered" (but not shown) onto each of their devices. How do I delete the password so that no one can log into my iCloud account? If one of their phones were stolen and someone figured out their 4 digit passcode (not that difficult) that person would have access to my iCloud account and could just turn off the "find my iPhone" feature. What am I missing???

You can set up a restriction with a different passcode by going to Setting>General>Restrictions>Accounts (near the bottom) and setting it to not allow changes. This will prevent access to the iCloud setting without turning off restrictions with the passcode, but it's still a 4-digit passcode and can be defeated by forcing the phone into recovery mode and restoring it. (This would erase the phone, however.)
If you do enable restrictions, be sure to write down the passcode. If you ever forget it, you cannot turn off restrictions without restoring the phone as new, without using a backup made while the restrictions passcode was set on it.

HT4847 how to delete my icloud account from my apple id?

By mistake i created a icloud mail account under apple id. it is now showing my icloud id under control panel and want to delete it now. how to do that?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
An Apple ID is a username that can be used to do everything with Apple, since you can use either your non-iCloud mail address or your iCloud mail address to log into Apple services they are both your Apple ID's. You can change your non-iCloud mail address but you can't change your iCloud mail address.

Just purchased a second hand iPad 3 in Bangkok which requires set up, but asks me for iCloud password from previous owner which I cannot obtain. Does anyone know how to activate

Cannot activate iPad 3 I recently purchased second
hand. I need to have previous owners iCloud details, which I cannot get. Does anyone know if iPad can be activated?

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

How can I remove the Icloud email from my apple ID?

I don't want Icloud at all.
I don't use whatsoever however I did recently use my apple ID to log into icloud and there is a [email protected] email that seems to substituting for my actual email. How can I remove it? I certainly did not put that email adress there and it is unsettling is there any way to severe this email's connections from my phone and ID?

Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars and look in the Mail section. If you have an icloud account listed there, just delete it.

HT204053 Forgot iCloud password have changed apple pw and now can't access iCloud?

See my question above
Do not see hoe to creat another password for iCloud and have forgotten original Thanks

Try temporarily recreating the old ID by going 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 use the password for your current ID to sign out of the account on your Mac (even if it prompts you for the password for the old ID). If you can sign out, choose Delete at all of the prompts (your data will still be in iCloud), then go back and change your ID back to the new email address again and sign in with it on your Mac.

Forced to use different iCloud account from iTunes

When I got my 4S I was asked to upgrade from MobileMe to iCloud. I went through all of the procedures to do this. In the process, I had to create an iCloud account "or use an existing iTunes or Apple ID" as I recall. My Apple ID is from the early days and does not have an "@" in it. iCloud would not let me use this so I used my MobileMe email address. Now I have ended up with two separate accounts for iTunes -- If I buy music on my phone it now goes to the iCloud account instead of my old iTunes account which I purchased many songs in. This is exactly the kind of problem that makes me wish I had purchased music somewhere other than iTunes. Is there some way to fix this and merge the two accounts?

Each of you should set up your separate iCloud account on your own computer using your Apple ID. This gives you two independent iCloud accounts.
Note that an iPad is not a multi-user device. It can only be synced with one account.

You can't cancel an account or an Apple ID, you can only stop using them and delete them from your devices.
