Does anyone know how to change apple id on iphone 4?

During the upgrade to iOS5, I set up my iCloud account with one apple id.  However, I would like to using another apple id I use with iTune but I can't seem to change the setting on my iPhone4.  When I go to setting, iCloud, account, and try to click on the Apple ID, it is greyed out.  Is it possible to change the iCloud account once set up on iphone?

Yes - for those with this problem on the Mac, I fixed mine today. (Merry Christmas!)
1. My situation was interesting. I was logged into the App Store OK as me (you can do this despite the greying out if you go to the STORE menu in the App Store app). This meant that my "Purchases" not yet installed on this particular Macbook Pro were available to install. (It doesn't ask for the password again.) However, my "UPDATES" for software already installed brought up the sign-in dialog box with the previous user's account name greyed out (Admin IT people from my workplace).
2. The two available updates that this clearly affected were iMovie and iPhoto in my case. I therefore followed the advice here about removing the receipt identifying the previous 'purchaser' of these apps. Note: you do that via the PACKAGE of each affected application itself (using the finder) - see the instructions.
THAT FIXED IT.
3. I don't know if this is relevant, but just in case: my Mac had a separate account for our IT dept called 'Administrator'. In System Preferences under USERS & GROUPS, I selected that account and changed its Apple ID (in fact none was set at all - so it might not have been relevant) to my own Apple ID. (No password required here, so not risky on its own I think.) I don't know that this was relevant, and once I had done step 2 above (which I actually did after this one) I simply deleted my ID again from that Administrator account.
Good luck!

  • I recently changed my apple ID but my previous apple ID is associated with my icloud account. I'm setting up my new iphone 6 and cannot complete the set up until I can sync my icloud account. Does anyone know how to change the icloud id?

    I recently changed my apple ID but my previous apple ID is associated with my icloud account. I'm setting up my new iphone 6 and cannot complete the set up until I can sync my icloud account. Does anyone know how to change the icloud id?

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate 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.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPhone and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your phone).

  • Does anyone know how to get apple mail in Lion to connect with Exchange 2007?

    Does anyone know how to get apple mail in Lion 10.7.2 to connect with Exchange 2007?  It worked perfectly with Snow Leopard... upgraded to lion and it won't work.  We use Exchange 2007 with SP 3 and Rollup 4.  Won't connect... and I can't get Apple to give me any direction. 

    We finally got it to work today.  We had to call and pay for the microsoft support service, but the issue was on the server end.  We had to go into the iis manager... went to sites... when to default website...and changed the SSL settings for Auto Discover, EWS Exadmin, echange, exchweb, owa... and the rest..
    Change the settings to ignore client certificates.
    Problem solved. Can finally send and receive.

    Unless you live in the country and have a credit card with a billing address in the country-you don't.

    HI,
    You can create and add another Screen Name to iChat.
    From iChat 4 you can have as many AIM Logins and Jabber Logins as you want.
    "AIM" in this case includes the Apple IDs (@mac.com and @me.com ending names) that also work as Valid AIM Screen Names as well as AIM registered Names.
    "Jabber Names" includes using Google Mail IDs and Facebook IDs as well as any registration with any other Jabber server.
    If you are not happy with the one you have you can delete and stop using it.
    Both Adding and Deleting are done in iChat > Preferences> Accounts.
    Highlight an Account/Name and then the minus button to delete.
    Using the Plus button show you the Add Screen.

  • HT4356 I have two printers on my network.  Does anyone know how to change the printer nomenclature - Officejet Pro 8600  (0B54AF) to a recognizable name...like Brad's Office?

    I have two printers on my network.  Does anyone know how to change the printer nomenclature - Officejet Pro 8600  (0B54AF) to a recognizable name...like Brad's Office when you use Airprint?

    You would have to change that in the printer's settings on the printer, if that option is offered by the manufacturer. The iPhone just finds printers on the network and uses the name they have given themselves or that were given to them when they were set up.

    I know this email is confusing and really hard to understand...perhaps now you will know how i've been feeling--lost and confused with all the mis-information, with a hit and miss phone, and out of time with all the 1 1/2 hr to 2 hrs EACH wasted on this issue.
    On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
    I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
    I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter?

  • After updating to iOS 6 my iPod Touch 4th.Gen is virtually unusable ... does anyone know how to sue Apple since they gave no warning about iOS 6 being for iPad optimisation and a killer  for iPods ?

    After updating to iOS 6 my iPod Touch 4th.Gen is virtually unusable ... does anyone know how to sue Apple since they gave no warning about iOS 6 being for iPad optimisation and a killer for iPods ?  Before I throw away my iPod Touch does anyone know if Apple intends to rectify their obnoxious disregard for iPod users by issuing another 'upgrade' which will allow iPods to work without the constant system crashes that iOS 6 has caused ?

    Contact a lawyer if you want to sue.
    Otherwise try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
