Has anyone changed their email address?

If you go to the update page for your Adobe ID it tells you that changing your email address will change your Adobe ID. This presumably means you would lose access to any books already bought? In the UK most people get their email address from their ISP, so everytime you change ISP - or every time your ISP gets taken over - your email address changes. I think Adobe have opened a can of worms with this one. They are going to have a lot of angry customers if you lose all of your books every time you change email address. Has anyone got any experience of this?
Chris.

Just checked my support case and find they have closed the case (without asking whether I was satisfied with the answer)!
The gist was...
Chris, We appreciate your feedback, we would forward your suggestions to
our research team.
As Adobe Digital Editions, reactivated with the new email address and
working fine.As Ebooks downloaded from your local library could now not
be read in DE or in Sony Reader library.
I would request you to please get in touch with Sony, Who would assist
you deauthorizing your Sony E Reader.
I hope this information is helpful, Please feel free to revert to us for
further assistance.
...I guess the good news is that they say they will forward my suggestions...let's hope they do it before one of the big ISPs changes all their clients email addresses.
The bad news is that they didn't actually read my reply - I didn't say the Sony reader wasn't working - and by "DE" I meant their own product (Digital Editions)!!! Also the help on Sony re Adobe ID is "contact Adobe" - too much passing the buck going on here.
I thought Adobe was a US company - but judging by the quality of the English their product support appears to be translated from Japanese or Indian!
Anyway, I now have an email address that I shouldn't need to change (assuming it doesn't get swamped by spam) so I think I am OK for the moment, but I hope other people don't get bitten by this one. (My advice is to keep track of where you buy all your ebooks, and check intermittently that you can download them again - as you may have to do it earnest if you ever have to change your email address).
Chris.

Why can't i change my EMail address?

Because my EMAIL address had been changed, i want to register new EMAIL address to my profile, but i find out that it can't be to change.
Who can help me to change my EMAIL address?
my new mail address is:
[email protected]
best regards,
James huang

Pants! No getting away from it, this is absolute pants!
I've tried registering for a new account, using my existing username but to no avail. So I suppose I've got to create a new username, etc. I'm getting too old for remembering all my username/password combinations as it is, without having to invent new ones because of a poor design. You people should be setting the standard when it comes to things like this.
Also, no wonder there are so many security holes caused by people using the same username &/or passwords across multiple accounts if they have to create a new user account when they only want to change their email address.
Oracle - your design for this OTN membership scheme is poor & its not helping security. Fix it quickly, fix it now.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

HT4009 I have recently changed my email address, now am having problems with signing into apps...as it still shows the old email address. I need help ...anyone??

After recently changing my email address on my iphone 4, am now having problems signing into the apps using my apple id....I have the apps still showing the old email address...and the password has not changed....can anyone tell me how to fix this? Thank you in advance...

You've updated your iTunes account to have your new email address on it - you might need to log out of your account by tapping on it at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in with the updated version of your account so as to 'refresh' the account on it.

Someone has been using my email address as their Apple ID

Hello,
Someone has been using MY email address as their Apple ID. When I started setting up my own Apple ID with my own email address, I eventually had to reset the associated password, thinking I had made this Apple ID earlier. Then when I logged into the account, it turned out to be someone else's account. Help, how do I fix this so I have my Apple ID associated with my email address and the other person knows to change their Apple ID email address?
Thanks!

I had this happen a few years ago. Someone created an iTunes account using one of my Gmail email addresses. I got the email to verify the account. I verified it, and then hit the forgot my password link. Reset the password and logged in. There I could see the ladies name, address and credit card. I changed it all to my name and removed the payment info and never entered my card number so they account could not be used.
Never had a problem again.

I need to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well. Does anyone know how this works??

I have to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. (I have a Comcast address and am switching to U-verse) I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well. I'm also trying to find out if changing my apple ID is going to interfere with getting my itunes content on my computer and my iphone. Does anyone know how this works??

My iTunes appleID is an old defunct e-mail address - it does not have to be functional.
Do what Winston says to ensure you keep getting correspondence related to that ID.

HT204053 My wife currently has two different apple accounts as we changed our email address plus got a new computer. I believe that all of her info is under her old email address plus on the old computer. how can we merge the two accounts

My wife currently has two different Itunes account as one is on the old computer with our old email address, Instead of changing the email address on the old account we created a new itunes account with her new gmail address. I just updated the new update for her iphone however I cannot get her contacts etc moved to the new phone as I believe they are all on her old account. It says I need as well to authorize this computer for the itunes store as well but in her account it says one computer authorized (old one) but cannot figure our how to get the new computer authorized as well.

You should be able to authorise the account via the Store drop-down menu at the top of iTunes (if you are using iTunes 11 on a PC then control-B should get the menus to show)

Hello,
My old emails address which I have used as my apple id for 10 years is being made redundant. I have changed the email address to a new gmail one and this is my new apple id. But my iMac has not recognised this. It keeps saying it wants the password for my old email address. I have seen some advice on these forums which suggest signing out of iCloud and then back in again. But when I start doing this it asks me if i want all the photos deleted that have not been downloaded onto the mac.
I have had an iCloud account for quite sometime and I'm afraid of losing everything in my cloud if i sign out and sign in with a new id.
Is this fear realistic?
I know I can change back to my old email, sign out and then sign in wight he new one...
Please help!

This did not work for me. My old email account for iCloud still pops up on my screen every time I open my macbook. I've deleted it, reset it, every thing I can think of and it still shows up. I think six months of this is more than enough time to wait.

Call the tech support for the provider of your old email. They will be able to change the password for you or if they can't they will shut the account down so that spammer is not able to use it.
