How Can I Change Apple ID in iMessage on iPhone 5S running iOS 8?

When I try to add "Use Your Apple ID for iMessage" under Messages in Settings, a pop-up box appears that says "Sign In to iMessage (Enter the Apple ID password for "[email protected]".  The only place to type is in the password box.  if I cancel, I go back to the Messages settings screen.If I click "OK", the pop-up returns.  I can see the correct Apple ID on the screen that appears when I click on "Use Your Apple ID for iMessage", but cannot get to that because of the pop-up.
Here's what I've tried:
1. Sign out of iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime.
2. Close out of settings.
3. Turn phone off and back on.
4. Sign back in to all apps listed above.
None of these things worked.  Any suggestions?

Read it again.  It only deletes your PhotoStream, not your Camera Roll (the pictures that you took with your phone that are on your phone).
Transfer your photos to your computer first if you're worried.
And, actually, if you changed the primary email for your Apple ID, then the old email isn't connected to anything anymore, so it actually won't delete anything.

    How can I change my user name on my iPhone 4S running OS 8.1.1 so I can update my Apps?

    Hi jprohask63,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    If you have applications that were originally downloaded from a different Apple ID, you would need to sign out of the current Apple ID and sign in to the Apple ID that was used originally to download the application. To complete this process please follow the instructions provided in the attached article.

  • How can I change the preview in imessage on a mac, when notifing me?

    how can I change the preview in imessage on a mac, when notifing me?
    I want it not to preview, just to show me the name of the person sending me the message, not the name of the person sending the message and the message they wrote.

    While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use iMessage. There's an iMessage Support Community where everybody uses iMessage. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • HT5622 how can we change apple id username...??

    How can we change apple if username

    You can change the non-Apple email address which forms your Apple ID and hence your login to the various facilities such as iTunes, iCloud and these forums - is that what you mean?
    To do this go to http://appleid.apple.com and click on 'Manage your Apple ID'.
    If you mean the user name which appears in these forums - melvinthms - you can't change that other than by obtaining a new Apple ID and signing into a new account in the forums.

  • Question: How can I change the iCloud ID on my iphone to the one I'm using on my ipad?

    How can I change the iCloud ID on my iphone to the one I'm using on my ipad?

    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.

  • Can I see contact icons/pictures in iMessage on iPhone 5 running iOS 7?

    Can I see my contact icons/pictures in iMessage on iPhone 5 running iOS 7? I know this is a stupid little thing, but all my previous Android phones would show the contact icons/pictures not only in the conversation but also in the list of iMessage threads. This was exceptionally helpful for me, as I am slightly dyslexic. It saved me several times from sending messages to the wrong person. Since I coordinate my entire job through my phone, I really miss this feature. If anyone knows of anyway to get this feature back please let me know.
    Thank you!!

    The only time you can see the contact picture is in a group message, unfortunately.

    How come iMovie shows as $4.99 on my iPhone 5S running iOS 7.0.4?  It should show up as free.

    Log out & in didn't help, but thanks for the suggestion.
    I also have a new iPad Air which did advertise iMovie as free.  After downloading to the iPad, I was able to download the app free from iCloud on iPhone.

  • How can I change Apple ID for App Store?

    I changed my Apple ID, Itunes on my Itouch recognizes it, but the app store does not. How can I change AppleID for App Store? When I try to update my apps it asks for the password for my old Apple ID which does not exist anymore.

    Thank you for the reply. I've done that twice and have no problem getting into the ITunes store. Problem is that I have 12 apps that want to be updated. I go to App Store and slect to "update all" and first thing it does is bring up my old AppleID (no place to change it) and asks for the password for that Apple ID.
    I tried doing a sync to my computer in case that would work, but no help. I wonder if I will have to do a complete reset just to fix this???

  • How can I change the number in iMessage send and receive on my iPhone 5c that is gray?

    I recently bought a iphone 5c and when I activate it, the imessage automatically set the number in send and receive, but the funny thing is the number that is registered is my number in another network and is grayed out, How can I change the number to the sim that I'm using in the phone?

    HI,
    As far as I can tell you cannot delete the ID when Only one is listed.
    This would suggest that you have to add the second (Correct) one and then delete the first (wrong) one.
    I can't say I have tried this yet.

    How can I change the password on my stolen iphon5 which shares data with my ipad2

    If you had Find My iPhone activated on your iPhone, you can remotely wipe it, which you can do through iCloud on your computer.  If you did not have Find My iPhone active on your phone you're out of luck.
    You should immediately change all passwords for your Apple ID, email, any apps where you had a password, or any where you have credit cards tied to shopping.
