Email for Apple
My dad made my Apple account back in 2004 when I got my first iPod. He used his email (since I was under the age to have an account for myself) for the Apple ID as well as for notifications and such. Since then I've put all my music, apps, etc. on that account. Is there any way that I can change the email so that I can receive notifications for when I post to the support community and such (I have already successfully changed my Apple ID to my own personal email)? It still shows on my profile that my dad's email is the email that will be sent notifications.
The email notifications for this forums are sent to the primary email address of the AppleID you are using with your AppleSupport Communities account. So to change this, sign into My Apple ID at https://appleid.apple.com/ and change the primary email address of the AppleID used with your account here.
If you cannot change that email address, create a new account here "thatxnolongergreengirl" and use the AppleID with your new email address for that new account.

I cant receive my verification email for apple ID
Help plz!!!!! i cant receive my verification email for apple ID..
My Apple ID is set up with my gmail account, and I am not getting ANY verification emails (neither iCloud, nor Apple ID -I tried resetting-). I don't know what this mess is about, but that verification email is the same reason I can't set up FaceTime on my iPad 2... All other forms of Apple ID work just fine -I buy apps all the time from the store and everything runs smoothly-
If anyone ever finds out a way of fixing this... PLEASE HELP! -

what should i do if i can't remember my security question's answer because i do not have a safety email for apple to send the reset question/answer link? my safety email got deleted
Your only option will be to contact iTunes Store support and see if they can help you. Click on this link and choose the Account Management option, and create a new case with iTunes Support.
Good luck! -
I no longer have access to my primary email address that is my Apple ID. I want to use my rescue email as my primary email. I have tried and tried and tried to, but Apple will not let me without accessing my old email account... which I cannot. How can I get my rescue email to be my primary on my Apple ID?
Hello Heather_M_D,
I found an article on how to change your Apple ID to another email account.
Apple ID: Changing the email address you use for your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621
You would have to verify a few conditions first :
Ensure that the email address you enter:
Is one that you regularly use since this will be the primary email for your account
Is a valid email address
Is not already associated with another Apple ID you have
Is not an address that ends in @mac.com. @me.com, or @icloud.com
If you meet all those conditions (you might have to dissociate the recovery email from your current Apple ID) and your current Apple ID does not end with @mac.com. @me.com, or @icloud.com, you would follow these steps from the article:
Follow these steps to change the primary email address for your Apple ID:
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID," and sign in.
With the Name, ID, and Email Address drawer selected, click Edit next to Apple ID and Primary Email Address.
Enter your new email address.
Best,

Reset email for Apple ID not received
Hi there,
my brother has troubles with resetting his Apple ID password for iPad. When requesting for email reset everyhing look fine, but eventually email never comes. He uses his gmail email as primary mail for Apple ID.
Did someone else have same problems?
Thx in advance.Hi MSFave,
If you are having issues receiving the reset email for your Apple ID (and it is not in your spam/junk folder), you may want to try one of the alternate reset methods as outlined in the following article. There is also a link to the Apple ID Support page if those methods are not successful.

How do I know if emails for Apple Customer Care is valid
Received an email from Apple Customer care asking for all of my information. I know this is not valid I would like to get the email to Apple. How can I do that?
There have been a number of phishing scams going around for more than half a year, see:http://www.apple.com/legal/more-resources/phishing/ for further guidance.

I updated both my iPad and iPhone with latest update. Love it! However, I wanted to use the find iPhone using iCloud feature. From the beginning of update it kept prompting me to verify my account when I wanted to use iCloud ??? Apple kept telling me to check my email to verify my account and there is not an email from them. And I'm not talking about verifying by my alternate email which I was successful at.

It sounds like you restored from an old back-up. Did you back-up just before your software update? It will use your last one and if your last back-up was a ywear old then it will use that one.
In general, if you are getting these messages on your iPhones select logout (when you get that Apple Id request) and then log back in with your newer ID.
Sorry for your losses.

How do I get a new email for Apple ID? Forgot password to old email linked to ID :(
I created my first iTunes account when I was in middle school (very long ago). I of course used my email from those days to create my ID. I continued to use my iTunes even when I got a new email, so I remembered my Apple ID password, but have since forgotten the password to my email that is attached to the Apple account. I would like to create an iCloud account, but I must have access to my email to register..which I don't. I have not used that email in years, and would like to switch my account over to my present email address so that I can create an iCloud account to download my music onto! Please help!!
Have a look here and also search for other contributions on the topic which is well discussed here.

Where are Invitation Emails for Apple Calendar Stored?
Hi,
When you add an event in Apple Calendar (prev. iCal) and invite an attendee, an email with an invitation is sent. Where are these emails saved? Where can you find the template that is used to create these emails?Hi Filip,
What happens with invites depends on whether the calendar is local or stored on calendar server or not. For local calendars (those under "On My Mac") the sent items will go into the outbox on Mail while the internat connection is broken. For server based calendars (iCloud, Exchange, Google calendar and other CalDAV calendars) the server is sent a signal via your internet connection and the email is made and sent from the server.
You are not going to be able to stop a server based calendar using the method you subscribe.
For local calendars you might want to look at my application iCal Reply Checker. It is shareware, but runs for 10 days before needing to be paid for.
Best wishes

Can't remember email for Apple ID
So i recently broke my iPhone and had to get it replaced but thankfully it was backed up. Unfortunatelly I now can't remember the email that I used for my Apple ID and so I can't get the backup to restore my new phone. Does anyone know how to find out the email as I have exhausted the normal method that Apple give you of the iForgot system to no avail.
Thanks
P.S. I'm posting this from a new Apple ID by the way.How about explaining your issue a little more clearly.

Does anybody know how i can contact a member of apple by email? i cannot find an email address anywhere to send my question. :/
Apple will not be able to tell you when any particular content will be available. The only way they announce in advance of actual availability is for special pre-orders which are clearly mentioned in the iTunes Store. Otherwise, you'll just have to wait and see if the item you want ever becomes available, something which is totally up to the content owner.

After changing my primary email for Apple ID, iCloud has issues
I recently changed my apple ID primary email address as the old email address is not obsolete which meant I had to turn off iCloud on all devices and log back in so that the username/email was correct for password verification. Now that I have done this, iCal has 7 calendars, reminders has about 4-5 reminders lists and contacts has about 500+ blank contacts.
When I go to delete these extra calendars, reminders and contacts. They delete but within a few seconds they reappear. I've rebooted, I've tried deleting them through icloud.com and also directly from each device. I have 3 devices using icloud. I have turned off 2 of them at a time and tried deleting from the remaining device.
Has anyone got a solution please?!!?? Starting to get frustrating.The contacts part of my post above has been resolved. I don't think it was related. I am still unfortunately stuck with additional reminders lists and calendars that do not stay deleted.
