How can I change my registered email address in itunes?

I want to change my apple email address from a btinternet account to my @me.com account but it wont allow me to change it to a 'mobileme' account, why is this or how can I change it as I want to close down my btinternet accounts

If you are seeing his Apple ID ("email address") when updating apps it means that some of the apps on the phone were purchased using his Apple ID.  Apps and there updates are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them, regardless of the ID on your phone in Settings>Store.  The only way to stop the prompt for your older ID would be to delete these apps from your phone.

  • How can I change my registered email address?

    My ARD is registered to an old email address. Is there any way for me to change the email address that ARD is registered to so I can update it using Software Update? It refuses to update because I have to login with my Apple ID and ARD is not tied to it. It used to always work and update fine until the latest OSX 10.10 where even ARD is assigned to an email address.

    You may change your Apple ID to any email address that is not already used as another Apple ID, or that is not already associated with another Apple ID.
    In other words, if I have an Apple ID [email protected], and have alternate email addresses of [email protected] and [email protected], none of them may be used by me or anyone else for an Apple ID, Rescue Email, alternate email, or anything Apple-related.
    If the Apple ID link above indicates your email is already in use then it is. Use https://iforgot.apple.com, select Forgot your Apple ID? and provide the information requested. If the email address is one you created and can still access, you may be able to retrieve it. If it is one someone else created, you will not.

  • How can i change my icloud email address? i mis typed my name and wanted to change my icloud email address??, how can i change my icloud email address? i mis typed my name and wanted to change my icloud email address??

    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.

    I do not know the log in details and no longer have that icloud email address !!
    please help :-(

    That's Activation Lock. You will need to remember the Apple ID and password you used to set up the phone.
    If you can't remember them, you can go to iforgot.apple.com to try to recover the information.
    If you are the original owner of the phone & have proof of purchase, you can try calling Apple to see if they can assist also.

    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.

  • TS2972 How can I change my HomeSharing email address info on my Apple TV?

    How can I change my HomeSharing email address info on my Apple TV? I updated to a new email address through iTunes but now Apple TV won't recognize it and won't connect. Please help! Thanks.

    This is the first time I have ever replied to a question on here but I actually know this because I just figured it out for myself.
    On the apple tv go to settings>computers
    Then turn off home sharing.
    Now go back to the main menu and open computers.
    When you do it will give the option to use the previous home sharing settings or to use a new apple id.

    You should be able to log into the account via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com and put a proper primary email address on the account ; or you can do it by logging into the account via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes.

    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in with the new ID.  However, app updates for your apps purchased with your older ID will always ask for the password for this ID.  (Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them.)

  • HT5312 how can i change my rescue email address?

    I have forgotten my security questions for my apple id. i was wondering how can i change the rescue email address and change my security answers?

    Reset Security Questions
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    Manage My Apple ID
    Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
    If all else fails:
      1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
      2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
      3. Then choose iTunes Store;
      4. Then choose Account Management;
      5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
          Continue;
      6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
      7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
          like your security/challenge questions reset;
      8. Click Send/Continue.
    You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
    In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
    Another user had success doing the following:
    I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
    Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
      a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
          tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
      b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
          "done", in the upper right corner
      c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
          Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
          should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
          security questions.
      d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
          selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
          should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
          questions.
    It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
    Good Luck friends!

  • HT204053 How can I change my iCloud email address

    How can I change my iCloud email address

    Unfortunately it is not possible to change your primary mac.com or me.com email address for iCloud (See also Apple's FAQ: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs cannot be renamed), but you could stop using this account and create a new one.
    Another option would be to create up to three email alises for your current primary email address.
    Try this to create a new alias for your me.com address:
    Open the web interface of iCloud "www.icloud.com" with Safari
    Log in
    Open "Mail"
    Open "Preferences" (by clicking on the little button in the upper right corner)
    Go to "Accounts"
    Click on "Add an alias" (it would be another me.com address, you can not create new mac.com addresses since MobileMe was launched)
    Finished
    By the way: If you want to set up iCloud on your Mac you need Lion or Mountain Lion.

  • How can I change my icloud email address on my pc?

    How can I change my icloud emil address on my pc.

    If the old ID ("email address") is your ID, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go 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, 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.
