Having trouble changing my iCloud login info on my MacBook Pro

I am having trouble changing my iCloud username on my MacBook Pro to match the iCloud unsername on my iPhone and my iPad mini

Hi Will_M123,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand you want to get all of your Apple devices on the same iCloud account. Are you receiving some kind of alert when you try to sign out of the iCloud account on the MacBook Pro? Please use the following information as a reference for signing out of iCloud.

  • HT204053 Having trouble changing my icloud account info to new apple id

    I changed our apple id a while ago.  Our phones have not been backing up because I have been unsuccessful in changing my apple id under the icloud account information.  Under icloud in settings on my iphone, it still has listed my old apple id.(I tried to get into it but the old apple id and password arent matching up) I touched on the account to try to change my apple id but it is not letting me highlight that section to be able to change it.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

  • I am having trouble sending an email from mail on my macbook pro. It keeps requesting my password. What should I do?

    I am having trouble sending an email from mail on my macbook pro. It keeps requesting my password. What should I do?

    There seems to be a few bugs with iCloud Mail at times, so send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • Having trouble with syncing calendars between iPhone 5s, iPad, MacBook Pro after changing apple id

    I signed out of an old apple id on my iPhone 5s and signed in with a current apple id.  Backed up my iPhone to the cloud.  After this, I lost the calendar information on my MacBook Pro (Phone and MacBook Pro used to have calendars that were synced).  I also signed in to an iPad with this current apple id.  I have checked the apple id that I am signed into on all 3 devices (iPhone 5s, MacBook Pro, iPad 2) and it is the same on all 3.  The phone has my calendar info.  The MacBook Pro and the iPad are blank, but they do communicate because I can send a test appointment and it will show up on the MacBook Pro and the iPad but not the phone.
    Contacts were not affected.  I have the contacts on all three devices. 
    I have gone thru most of the troubleshooting on the apple website.
    Help!

    I just tried and it says that it's not available But I do not have another Apple ID. "This email address is not available for use as an Apple ID. You may already have an Apple ID associated with this address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID." The only thing I did that started this nightmare was go into Apple ID and click edit for email and enter the new one. That's it. 
    Because your old AppleID is used used an you alternate email.
    Remove it as your alternate email.

    Any ideas?

  • Having trouble changing apple id to sign into itunes

    I am having trouble changing my apple id from my husband's itunes id to my own. 

    No, you don't need to change anything regarding AppleIDs. The article say's nothing about changing AppleIDs.
    This is just an optional, additional email address you can use (or ignore) that comes into your existing iCloud mailbox.

  • Im having trouble changing my security questions, they are from years ago so i do not remember them and the reset email is no longer active,and i dont know how i can use the account because i added money to it but it asks for the questions. anybody help??

    im having trouble changing my security questions, they are from years ago so i do not remember them and the reset email is no longer active.., and i dont know how i can use the account because i added money to it but it asks for the questions. anybody help??
    this says it all..

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Contact Apple through iTunes Store Support, and explain that you have forgotten your 3 security questions, that you can reset your password, but doing so doesn't reset your security questions.
    Remember, support will receive hundreds, if not thousands of requests per day, some from people trying it on, others with little explanation and others that are written extremely poorly. Take the time to explain your situation properly, be precise and concise, brief but comprehensive.

  • I'm having trouble with my iCloud photos. I thought i could be a little sneaky and take a photo of my photos that were more than 30 days old, so they would be uploaded along with my new photos. that part worked, but i can't upload them to Snapfish?!

    i'm having trouble with my iCloud photos. I thought i could be a little sneaky and take a photo of my photos that were more than 30 days old, so they would be uploaded along with my new photos. that part worked, but i can't select them to upload them to Snapfish?! Any thoughts? I'm bummed. I've got a few hundred photos on my iPhone that I'd like to move seemlessly - or somehow at all.

    hopefully something in here is helpful?

  • I'm having trouble syncing with icloud.  Please help.

    I'm having trouble syncing with icloud. I'm trying to sync my iphone & my new ipad.  HELP

    go to Settings -> iCloud -> Account     make sure you are using the same account on both devices. then you can select what you want synced to the cloud. once you have chosen what you want to sync the devices should update to match each other. this may take a few minutes for the devices to sync up.

    Hello Thank you I am having trouble signing to ICloud already went through process @ Apple & claims incorrect..

    I create new apps pretty rarely. This might be second nature to those people who create thousands of apps. But I don't recall it being very difficult. Also, I am only setup for the Mac App Store right now.
    You just go into the Developer Certificate Utility via the link in the right hand sidebar.
    There, go into "App IDs" and just "Create App ID" to create the app with the name and bundle ID that you want. I don't see anything for editing or deleting an App ID. Just create a new one with the name and ID you want. If you really want to re-use the name for the dead ID, you would probably have to contact Apple. I think your question might fall into the "Program Benefits" category.
    Once you have an app name and bundle ID you are happy with, make your Xcode project match them. Then, in Xcode, use Product > Archive to validate and submit to the App Store.

  • Hey so I'm having trouble changing my country/region on my iphone 5 every time it go through settings Apple ID and try change the country it's just blank ? Any ideas ?

    Hey so I'm having trouble changing my country/region on my iphone 5 every time it go through settings Apple ID and try change the country it's just blank ? Any ideas ?

    Hello Natethemate,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with changing the country for the iTunes Store on your iPhone.  For this issue, I recommend signing out and back into the iTunes Store on your iPhone:
    Sign in with a different Apple ID
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores.
    Tap your Apple ID.
    If you see the option to Sign In, you can change your Apple ID now.
    Tap Sign Out.
    Enter your Apple ID and Password and tap Sign In.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1311
    If the issue persists after signing out and back in, I recommend quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the iTunes Store app, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.

    Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

  • HT204053 I am having trouble setting up icloud on MAC. In system preference it is listed as mobile me, it asks for member name and password. It also has a learn more button under "try mobileme for free". I am not getting anywhere

    I am having trouble setting up icloud on MAC. In system preference it is listed as mobile me, it asks for member name and password. It also has a learn more button under "try mobileme for free". I am not getting anywhere

    It's evident that you are using Snow Leopard or earlier (or very early Lion) since you have the now obsolete MobileMe preference pane.
    The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mountain Lion preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is non non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
    To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
      and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
      You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
      If you are running Leopard on an Intel Mac you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard to access the Mac App Store - it's available in the online Apple Store. However if you have a PPC Mac you cannot run Snow Leopard and cannot proceed further.
