How do I change my iCloud account

Are you asking how to delete the one that is currently on the ipad and add/create a new one?
Your icloud user name is associated with your apple id, so would need to clarify.
to delete your icloud account
go to settings/icloud/delete account
then just go back and add/create a new one

HT4623 How can I change my Icloud account on my ipad to the one I use on my iphone?

How can I change my Icloud account on my ipad to the one I use on my iphone?
For example on my iphone I log in with a yahoo account. My ipod was originally set up with another e-mail account (which I can't remember the password). I want to use the yahoo e-mail and the password associated with it to log on to both devices.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
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")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another 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.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

How can I change the iCloud account that my iPad backs up to? I now have two iPads. I want the older to go to a new account and the new one to sync to the original account.

iPad sync to the iCloud account

You have to create a new Apple ID for the new iPad. But you really don't want to do that because them you will have to purchase all of your content again because paid content is always tied to the Apple ID that was used to purchase it originally. You will not be able to download all of your previously purchased content for free.
You can backup multiple iDevices to one iCloud account, I backup my iPod and iPad to one iCloud account. You can always purchase more storage space if you need it. IMO - if you still have a computer - use iTunes. You are only limited by the capacity left on your hard drive when you backup. No need to keep paying for more iCloud storage - again, just my opinion.

I don't remember my old Apple ID and I closed my email account that I was using for my old Apple ID. Now, how can I change my icloud id on my Ipad. The old icloud id is still on my Ipad.

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.

Just go to "Settings > iCloud" scroll down and delete the account, if you don't want to use it on your phone anymore. After you delted it from your device you will be able to sign in again to use another one for iCloud.

How do I change an iCloud account on an iPad?

My iPhone and iPad use 2 distinct iCloud accounts, as a by product of the mobile me exit. Now I want to sync these 2 devices, so they need to use the same iCloud account. When I start to change the iPad account, I receive a dire warning that all data in iCloud and the iPad will be lost if I proceed.
Is the warning untrue, or am I misreading it, or am i going about this incorrectly? How should one change the iCloud account on an iPad to another existing iCloud account? Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

It does delete it from you iPad but not from the iCloud account. If you want to migrate the data to a different iCloud account first go to Settings>iCloud on your iPad and turn all synced data to Off, when prompted choose to keep the data on your iPad. When everything is turned off you can scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. Then set up the other iCloud account on your iPad and turn syncing back on for contacts, calendars, etc. When prompted choose merge to upload the data and merge it with any data on this account.

3 ipad uses 1 apple id and 1icloud account, how can i make different icloud account so each ipad will have more icloud space?

All 3 iPads will have to share the same 5GB of free iCloud space. Buy more space if necessary.
Suggest you give different name to each iPad to prevent confusion.

How can i change old icloud account on my 4s ios 8.1.1?

i recently "upgraded" my old iphone 4 and bought a secondhand 4s, i forgot to ask the owner to reset the phone but it was pretty blank and now I can't change his icloud account to mine.... Any ideas on how to do that? I have some files on my icloud that I Rather not lose. Please help me with a way to do this. By-the-way the owner's icloud was made with an old email address made just for this iphone and used it only on activation....(and he is kind of a jerk)

Hi Mihai.rxn,
Based on your description, it sounds like the phone in question may still be Activation Locked to the previous owner's Apple ID. If that is the case, you may find the following article helpful:

How do I change my icloud account on my ipad?

I need to change my icloud account on my ipad without losing any data or photos. How do I do this? At present my ipad is backed up to my ex partners icloud account, can he access my ipad remotely?

Only speaking of backup and not information that you sync/stream to his icloud.
Depending on maliciousness of his intent and determination he/she can know nothing or everything. By everything I mean that he/she can restore his/her ipad from your backup.
In one hour of time he/she would have access to device that would be exact mirror of what you had in your hands at time of backup. With some luck he would know as much as you do looking at your ipad right now. If you using icloud keychain he/she would have access to your credit card numbers.
Not speaking about backup anymore.
If he/she wants your device can be wiped at any time, as long as he/she is still signed in. He can also enable lost mode on icloud website and then even if you have paperwork that ipad belongs to you, nobody can help you to use ipad. (that is if you use ios 7). Good luck.
