How can i change my icloud id and pw

Hi

Please is there someone who has a good answer for me in this issue?
Thanks

You can rename your ID and change your password on appleid.apple.com.  (You can't rename an @me.com, @mac.com or @icloud.com ID.)
After changing it, to change it on your iPad go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new credentials.  This will delete the account and your icloud data from your iPad but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account by tapping Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • How can I change my icloud address and pass word ( not Apple ID)

    I am trying to sync music on my iphone and it doesn't back up while syncing and when done there is a problem with the new music and it has a small cloud next to all the tracks that aren't playing and I dont have the info for my old icloud I had created. Plzhelp

    Your personal iCloud account has nothing to do with this.  Your ability to sync music to your device is based on your computer being authorized for the ID used to purchase it.  When you sync, that authorization transfers to your device as well.  There is a limit on the number of different IDs your device can be authorized for.  I believe the number is 5.  That is, you can have media on your device that was purchase from no more than 5 different IDs.
    If that isn't the issue, try posting over in the iTunes forum.  They can probably help you figure out what the syncing issue is.
    Changing your iCloud ID and password won't help with this issue.  Also, just as an FYI, an iCloud ID is also an Apple ID, and you change it the same way you change any other Apple ID.

  • TS3988 How can I change my iCloud account and password? If I delete the account, I do not want all info deleted.

    I want to change my iCloud account and password without losing info that has been backed up.

    Your iCloud account ID and password are the AppleID and password you used when you created the account.  As fromsouth says, change the password for the AppleID and you've changed it for your iCloud login.  You can also change the primary email address of that AppleID if you need to.

  • 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.

    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.

    how can I change my icloud email details and password on my iphone 5s tried all day without success, I have changed my apple ID and password thats okay.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    hello guys ...i need any help or suggestions, how can i change my icloud email address?? i typed a w rong name by mistake?? can i change it and retype the correct one? thanks ...your suggestio is higly appreciated.

    That's definitely not supposed to happen.  You shouldn't have someone else's iCloud email linked to your ID.
    You'll have to get iCloud support to sort this one out.  The only way to contact them is to start here: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/.  You'll have to provide your iPhone serial number.  Unless it's within the 90 day free support window, or you purchased AppleCare, there will be a charge.  I suppose you can plead your case when they answer that you shouldn't be charged as you didn't set up this address and it shouldn't have happened with your ID.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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.

    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
