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")
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.

  • I can't remember my security questions and when I have them sent to my email it's the wrong email address. I can't figure out how to change that email address. It's not the same as the one I have on my account.

    I'm trying to change my security questions because I forgot them. When I have them sent to me via email it's going to a diiferent email. I can't figure out how to change that email that the security questions are connected to. It's not the one that I can Edit on my Account.

    You need to contact Apple to get the questions reset. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team, or fill out and submit this form.

  • I got my iPhone disabled mistakenly by six trials of entering pass code. However now I remembered  my passcode so how can fix the problem without losing my contents.

    I got my iPhone disabled mistakenly by six trials of entering pass code. However now I remembered  my passcode so how can fix the problem without losing my contents.

    If your phone is now disabled, you've already lost all data on the phone...that's the whole point of the passcode, to protect the data on the phone. Your only choice now is to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it, as described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    This will remove the passcode, but also erase all data on the phone unless you have a backup to restore from.

    Hi JkeeneSoldano,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    To regain access to your Apple ID, try to reset your password using one of these methods:
    Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
    Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
    Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
    From:
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    If you need to use the email verification method but don't receive the reset email, see this link for more help:
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support

    I've tried looking at my own itunes account but I cannot seem to find the allowance account, it says I currently have zero allowance accounts.
    All I want to do is change the assigned email address.

  • Hi, I have deleted my old apple ID as it was my old email address and replaced it with a new one but cant seem to make my Iphone and Ipad forget the old one and Icloud will not let me in. also when I try my old password or try and reset it it will not let

    I deleted/changed my old apple ID (from the apple webb site) and I have changed all my Apple products onto the new ID, but they all randomly ask for a password for the old ID (which now will not work and I can't change) the biggest problem is that my icloud account will not let me in to do anything.
    my knowledge of Apple is limited.

    We need to be clear here. Did you create a second ID, or just modify the single ID?

  • TS1538 my 4th generation ipod touch is not recognize in itunes. it just displays the updating circle spinning then shows the apple then goes back to spinning. it is unusable now, what can I do

    MY DAUGHTERS IPOD TOUCH HAD NO AVAILABLE SPACE LEFT IN MEMORY SO WE TRIED TO CONNECT IT TO ITUNES TO SAVE PICS TO MY LAPTOP AND THEN UPDATE IT BUT ITUNES SAID IT DID NOT RECOGNIZE THIS DEVICE.

IT CANNOT CONNECT TO ITUNES NOW BECAUSE ITS LOCKED BUT WE CAN'T GET THE MAIN SCREEN TO OPEN IT WITH THE PASSWORD...PLEASE HELP

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How can I cancel my icloud account when I don't know the password that it has with my wrong email address?

    My IPhone5 wants my password, but it doesn't have the right email address on it.  It won't let me delete the icloud because it demands that I give it the password that icloud has stored.  Please help!

    The iCloud account is your account ? If it's somebody else's account then you will need to contact that person and ask them to remove the phone from their account.
    If it is your account then see if you can get the password reset via http://appleid.apple.com
    If you can't then try contacting Support in your country and see if they get you access to it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

  • I am so dissappointed with the Home Fusion. Does anyone have an email address where I can send a letter to customer service about my issue?

    Sales rep in store pulled up the map and told me "Yes you are totally in a 4G service area."  I knew I already had great connectivity thru my Jetpack but wanted the Home Fusion for at home. Installation was quick and easy, the installer was polite and courteous but did not tell me I had to purchase the insurance on the device less be responsible for any charges that occur if a tech has to come out and service it. Well, it worked for about 2 weeks and we had some storms roll thru our area and that was the end of my internet.  After two painful calls to technical support and 2 trouble tickets submitted with no results I was very frustrated and upset. I felt that I had no other option but to have the tech come out and "fix" or "swap out" the antenna. Now keep in mind that there was no physical damage to the Home Fusion Antenna or Router, so I couldn't understand why the Home Fusion wouldn't work. Turns out the tech that came out to my house told me flat out that it shouldn't have ever been installed. The original tech I recall his name being Eddie, should have told me that the signal for the 4G Home Fusion was very weak and that the area that I am in is not quite a 4G Home Fusion area, it's on the brink and probably will be soon but for now it's shotty at best. However, I had to hear this from the tech that came out to replace the antenna, the antenna that there was nothing wrong with(per Levi). If the original tech Eddie would have leveled with me I would have opted to add the service later when we were completely in the coverage area. I still would have ordered the service, I would have continued to be a happy customer. Levi Bishop is the name of the second tech that came out to the house. He was very honest with me that Verizon was having a lot of issues with techs installing the equipment when they really shouldn't  because of this issue, that Eddie is no longer with Verizon because of this.
    I am at a loss because I do not feel that I should have been billed for a tech to come out to tell me the 4G isn't up and running quite yet for my area. I feel like I was taken advantage since your technicians are the ones who have this information at the time of install yet they don't share this very important piece of information with us and just do the install because that's what they are paid to do.

    Jloe,
    As I have posted before, You, and others having issues with Verizon would be much better off if you complained to the FCC and FTC as well as your Senators and Congressmen.  We, as individuals, have such small voices - use them where they might do the most good.
    Also, don't assume that Verizon doesn't monitor these postings, they actively do & sometimes contact those that post complaints.
    Sorry for your problems.  GC

  • How to wipe everything and start over from the beginning in Lightroom 4

    i had photos all over the place including in Lightroom I moved them all to an external hard drive now I want to reinstall Lightroom but can't find the disc. How to wipe everything and just restart.

    Creating a new catalog and reimporting to it is the easiest way to start over. However, you should be aware that by doing so you will lose any editing and organizing that you have done because unless you have exported edited versions the edits are no more than entries in the old catalog - the photos are unchanged. If you do want to retain your work, a better route would be to revise the old catalog and bring it up to date with the new folder and photo locations, as explained here: Can I simply move my main pictures folder to External Hard Drive?
