How can I change my Apple ID on my iPad to correspond with my correct ID

How do I change the Apple ID in my iPad to match my correct Apple ID I logging in with to gain access to my account

I'm uncertain what problem you're attempting to resolve.  If the following doesn't apply, post back.
ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them.  Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password.  Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.

  • How can I change my Apple ID for iCloud on iPhone 5 with iOS7?

    How can I change my Apple ID for iCloud on iPhone 5 with iOS7? When I updated to iOS7 it kept my old ID on some features and my new one on others. I was able to change my Apple ID on all apps except iCloud. I don't have the original email account I used when setting up my iPhone with the old Apple ID and I have no clue what the password was. It appears I first need to turn off "Find my iPhone" which requires the old Apple ID, then I can delete the iCloud account. I want to use my current Apple ID to be able to use the "Find my iPhone" feature in iOS7. I hope someone can help!!

    That doesn't help. It's an old email that doesn't work anymore. Please read the entire post. iOS7 won't let you delete iCloud unless you have the password for the old/inactive email/Apple ID.
    You never mentioned that you didn't have access to that email.  There are some specific steps you can perform to retrieve the old Apple ID password.

  • How can we change the Apple ID on our iPad to another owner?

    How can we change the Apple ID on our iPad to another owner?

    Settings->iTunes and App Stores->Apple ID->Sign Out     Sign in with another Apple ID.
    However all Apps purchased with the previous ID will be forever tied to it and will always require it to update.
    So if you plan on changing owners its better to wipe the iPad clean, and let the new owner set it up from scratch.
    Settings->General->Reset->Erase All Content and Settings will put the iPad back to the way it was when it was first taken out of the box.

    Any App obtained with an Apple ID is Tied to that Apple ID.

    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • How can I change my apple ID on my iPad?

    When I try and log into the app store it asks me to log in and is defaulting to the apple ID I used to have, the one I recently changed.  How can I get this to show up with my new, current ID?

    Go to Settings>Store. Under Apple ID tap existing ID, then Sign Out. Sign back in with the one you want to use.

  • How can I change the Apple ID on a iPad mini running OSX 8

    A family member would like to begin to use his Apple ID now on his own iPad WiFi mini running the new OSX 8. Under the Settings, iCloud we cannot find a way to switch from my Apple ID to his Apple ID which was opened with the purchase of his iPhone 5C a few months ago. When we select the "Edit" option only the name of the Apple ID can be changed, not the iCloud email address. Is there a way of signing out of the current ID and signing in with the one we want to replace the old ID with?

    To change the iCloud ID, you have to go to Settings>iCloud and tap Sign Out (at the bottom).  When you do you will get an option to keep a copy of the iCloud data on your device.  Choose to do so if you need to migrate the data to the new account.  On a Mac, you go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, then sign back in with the new ID.
    To change the ID for other services (iMessage, FaceTime, iTunes Store, etc.), you tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the new ID.

  • How do I change the apple id on my iPad to purchase an app?

    ChrisJ4203,
    Thank you for the help.  Every app on my phone was downloaded using my old I-tunes ID.  I just hope that they will re-download under my new ID because I still can't change it on my phone.  In order to change to the new ID it says I have to sign out from the old ID and change to the new one.  My problem is that I don't remember my password to be able to sign out from my old ID.  Then the phone says it can change my password through e-mail and I  agree but I never get an e-mail at my old address or the new one.

  • 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.
