How can I change my Apple ID that is stored in my iCloud Account Information?

I need to update my iCloud account on my Touch with a new Apple ID.  How can I do this?  Thanks!

To change your iCloud ID, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID. This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.
When you delete the account you will be prompted about whether to delete or keep the iCloud data.  If you are signing back into the same account that has only been renamed, choose Delete.   Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.  If you are changing to a new account with a new ID, choose Keep, then sign back in with your new ID and choose Merge with iCloud to upload your data to the new account.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • How can I change the Apple ID that appears on my iPod Touch? It's not the correct ID.

    Somehow the email address that appears as my Apple ID when opening my iPod Touch (5th gen) is not my correct email address/Apple ID.  How can I change my Apple ID withing my Touch so I can access apps?

    You might have to transfer purchases to your account. If its signed in on a different account. Or,
    1. Go to iTunes on your iPod.
    2. Click music and scroll down to the bottom on your iPod.
    3. It should show the apple ID that's signed in, and press it and choose sign out.
    4. Then click sign in and it should work.
    Hope this helps.

    I have inadvertently set up two apple ID accounts - now, I am trying to use iCloud to sync everything but my mac has one ID and my phone has another.  How can I change the one on my mac?  the one on my phone is the one that has the extra storage.

    Navigate to system preferences > iCloud and sign out of your account, then sign back in using the correct details.

    My email address was hacked and I can no longer use it. How can I change the email address with our loosing everything on my iTunes account?

    Sign out of your Apple ID on all your services & devices, especially iCloud on your iPhone.
    Go to id.apple.com.
    Log in with your Apple ID & password.
    Then, edit your primary email address to the new email account.
    Once you do so, a verification email will be sent to the new email address.
    Go to your email account and verify the new primary email address.

  • How can I change the Apple ID that is set up with my Mail account?

    I need to change that hotmail address

    You shouldn't post your email address in public forums.
    To manage your Apple ID, go to this site:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    You can change an outside email address associated with an Apple ID as a main login, but you will still have an Apple email address associated with it also which you can't change.
    You will need to sign in with your apple id. If you forgot your password, click forgot  and follow the directions.

  • How can I change my Apple ID that is set up with an old email that does not exist anymore

    I set up an Apple ID years ago with a hotmail email account. I also deleted that hotmail email account years ago. I now have a gmail email. I cannot back up anything to icloud because of my apple id that is connected to the hotmail email account that does not exist anymore. To change my ID, apple sends a verification email to my old hotmail account which i cannot access, and it also says my gmail account is my rescue account, so I wouldn't be able to change it to my gmail account anyway.  Any ideas? I'd like my ID to be associated with my one and only current gmail email account. I have a lot of songs that I've spent a lot of money on over the years that I don't want to lose.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • How can I change my apple ID on my iPhone? It's tied to a dead email address that's inaccessible.

    How can I change my apple ID on my iPhone? It's tied to a dead email address that's inaccessible. I can log in on my computer with updated id, however I can't find where to change old email. The settings displays new id. When I try to update or buy an app on my phone it automatically puts in the dead email address and asks for the password.
    Please help! Thanks.

    Sync with iTunes so you have a backup. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings. Restore the unit as New. Reconfigure for your new ID and password. Restore your apps, etc. from backup.

    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.

  • How can i change the automatic ID that apppears in my iPhone where in fact itis not my apple ID in the first place?

    how can i change the automatic ID that apppears in my iPhone where in fact it is not my apple ID in the first place?

    The automatic ID DaintyDaisy is talking about is when you go to your app store and it shows you as logged in under a certain Apple ID, and asks you for the password to log in.  If this is not the correct Apple ID, then we (including me!!!) need to know where to go to re set it.  I followed some other discussions and one link http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796  shows you how to sign out, but when the Apple ID is greyed out, it doesn't help!!! Typical Apple world... get tangled and suffer for endless hours trying to fix one problem... but there is a million more to fix (like getting the righ App to download pictures from one's iPhone).

  • 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.

  • 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.
