How can I change my Apple ID into my MobileMe address

Just had a realyl funny chat with the iCloud support. totally useless...
My situation: I already had an Apple ID for iTunes etc. Now I registered for iCloud and wanted to use it also as eMail Service with an @me eMail Adress. Registered for iCloud, was asked to select a nice @me email adress, everything worked fine. But: My Aplle ID is stil lthe email of my "old" email provider. Woudnt make sense if I switch to the @me Adress. So lets chage it. But does not work.
Now it seems Apple wants me to maintain my gmail account, not allowing me to change my Apple ID into the new @me.com email address. Can this be true?
Does anyone know what I can do?
Thanks, Michael

Same problem here, typed a wrong adress, was to eager and missed the fill in after @. So my emailadress is @me.com A not excisting emailadress
Curious how to change it

    If you are going to change your AppleID login you will need to log out and back in on all your devices. Turn off 'Find My iPhone/iMac/iPod' first or you will find yourself unable to sign out and be stuck.

  • In the iclouds settings of my new iphone apears an old not existing account.. so I can't login.. how can I change the apple ID into my actual one in the settings of icloud on my iphone?

    all other settings are correct with my new apple ID... itunes works and all other devises too..

    If the contacts on icloud.com are correct, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts off (if it is on) and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.  Now check the contacts on your phone to confirm that you no longer have any contacts on your phone.  If some or all of them are still on your phone, download the free app My Contacts Backup to your phone.  Open the app, tap the gear icon on the bottom right and in the window that opens, scroll to the bottom and tap Remove All Contacts.  Confirm that the contacts are now all deleted from your phone.  Now go to Settings>iCloud and turn Contact on.  The correct contact list from icloud.com should download to your phone.

  • How can I change my Apple ID on Icloud to be the same as I resently have changed my Apple ID into?

    How can I change my Apple ID on I cloud on my Ipone 4S, to be the same as I resently have changed my Apple ID into?

    But will my photos, calendar, etc. be associated with new ID? 
    I have this question too, as I finally changed my Apple ID from ancient unchecked email to current one.  When I go to delete iCloud account with old Apple ID, it gives me a message that says all my photos are going to be deleted and that freaks me out, so I have not deleted it. 
    Is all my data going to be associated with the new ID?

  • How can I change my apple ID on my iCloud account?

    How can I change my apple ID on my iCloud account?

    Yes, you delete the account, then sign back in with a new ID to create their new account.  With iOS 7 you will be prompted to provide your password in order to delete the account.  Also, when you delete the account you will be asked if you want to keep or delete the iCloud data from the device.  If you plan to migrate a copy of the data to the new account, choose Keep, then choose Merge after signing into the new account to upload the data.

  • HT5621 How can I change my apple id on icloud?

    How can I change my apple id on icloud, I have done it online, but when I try to get into it on my iphone it still comes up with my old apple id, and I cannot change it as it keeps asking for my password which the old id will not accept?

    You have to delete the account: Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Try changing your ID, online, back to your old ID, then delete the iCloud account on your phone. Once done, change your ID back to the new one you want to use.

  • 2 different iphones have the same Apple ID, how can I change the apple ID on one of them but not delete the other iphone's data and media?

    2 different iphones have the same Apple ID, how can I change the apple ID on one of them but not delete the other iphone's data and media?

    You don't have to do anything with the first iPod that you don't use anymore. If you are planning on keeping it, put in a drawer in your house and forget about it.
    You don't need a second account to use with the new iPod. I use one Appl e ID and iTunes library for two iPods, and two iPad. I have different content on all four devices. You can select exactly what you want to sync to each device and it can be different content on all devices.

  • I have some apps on my iPad that were installed using an old apple ID. They can't be updated because the old ID is no longer valid. How can I change the apple ID associated with these apps?

    I installed some apps using an apple I'd that is no longer active. I can't update them because it asks for the password of the old I'd instead of the I'd I currently use. How can I change the apple I'd associated with these apps? I still want to use them. One app I paid for using the old I'd. The other app is free. I have already tried deleting them and reinstalling them.

    If you simply just changed the email associated with that appleid you can just delete and Re-download the apps.
    You can verify  the above step by going to the App Store on device > Updates>Purchased - if you see the app there just delete it from the home screen and redownload from the purchased section
    Now if you got rid of that account entirely, you will have to delete and re-purchase on your new account

  • My teenage daughter and i share an apple id on both of our iphones.  she now has an ipad with a her own apple id.  How can we change the apple id on her phoneand not loose any contacts or songs?

    My teenage daughter and i share an apple id on both of our iphones (2 phones both are 5s) .  She now has an ipad with a her own apple id.  How can we change the apple id on her phone so that is the same as the ipad and not loose any contacts or songs?

    Did you take a look at the new feature Apple - iOS 8 - Family Sharing ?
    Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
    Up to now, songs bought from iTunes could only be played by the Apple ID that has been used to buy them.
    If you set up Family Sharing, your daughter can also play your songs and use the same contact info as before.
    If you don't want to do that, sync the contact info to the address book on your computer, and sync the info back, using iTunes:
    Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
    If the iPad already has her Apple ID and contact info on it, restore the phone from the latest iPad backup.

  • I have five iPads, four for my classroom and one that is personal. How can I change my Apple ID on the personal iPad and still keep the apps?  Thank you!

    I have five ipad ii products. Four of them I use in my classroom and one is for personal use.  How can I change my apple ID on my personal iPad and keep all of the apps (i.e. Kindle).  I do not want it connected to my school iPads. 

    All app purchases are permanently tied to their Apple ID. You will have to delete and repurchase the apps with a new ID. I would recommend wiping that iPad and setting it up with another ID.

    Hello pscorning1,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your question. If you have already changed the information associated with your current Apple ID (*not* created an entirely new Apple ID), you may find the following article about updating the various Apple ID services helpful:
