  • How do i change the apple ID on my Imac

    I have two apple ID accounts. I want all of my apple devices signed into the same apple ID. How can I change the apple ID that I am signed into on my iMac?

    General: System Preferences>Users & Groups, click on your User ID, click on Change next to the User ID
    iTunes: Click on the name or "Sign-In" in top menu bar on the right-hand side, and sign out the ID that is signed on, or if no one is signed on, sign on your Apple ID of choice
    iCloud: System Preferences>iCloud, sign out the Apple ID that is signed on, sign on the preferred Apple ID
    Messages - open Messages, click Preferences>Accounts, sign out and then sign in preferred Apple ID
    FaceTime - open FaceTime, click on Preferences, then click on the Apple ID, then on Sign out. Then sign in the preferred Apple ID
    I can't think of anything else, though there probably are other places where you might be signed in.
    Cheers,

  • How do I change my Apple ID on my iMac. It is showing an old ID in System Preferences/Internet Accounts and System Preferences/iCloud

    My iPhone, iPad and iMac Safari access to the Apple Store and iCloud are fine and accept my new Apple ID. Mail constantly prompts me for a password with a box that shows my old Apple ID. I'm guessing that somewhere on the iMac I can change or delete the old Apple ID? It's not in the Keychain.
    iMac OS X 10.10
    Mail 8

    Thanks Eric. If I try, I get a box with the statement:
    Your iCloud account couldn't be removed at this time.
    Mail was unable to delete [email protected] (It just shows this as normal black type without the email envelope) Relaunch Mail then sign our of iCloud again.
    It shows an OK box.
    The Apple ID shown is of course, the old one, that I am trying to change on the iMac. On my iPhone, iPad, the Apple Store and iCloud via safari, only my new Apple ID is shown.
    I tried to insert an image of this scenario but I couldn't insert the chosen 138KB tiff image.

    Hi Marg42,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    First, your husband can create his own Apple ID via the web, computer, or iPad, if he hasn't already:
    My Apple ID
    https://appleid.apple.com
    iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2731
    Next, he can sign out of the Apple services that are currently using your Apple ID on your old iPad, and sign in with his own.
    This article has instructions for doing so for specific Apple services:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
    Alternately, he can erase the device and set it up as new using the steps in this article:

  • How do I change my Apple ID on only one device?

    How do I change my Apple ID on only one device? I inherited my husband's iPhone 5. He cleared it but I set it up with same Apple ID so we could share same iTunes account. However, I realised that there are inconveniences such as not being able to Facetime each other. In addition, his iTunes account is UK-based and we'd like to also have a New Zealand iTunes account for various reasons.

    Go to settings/icloud and sign out. Then sign in by creating a new Apple ID. Do the same in Settings for Messages, FaceTime and iTunes & App Store. Next, link your Apple IDs using Family Sharing so you can still share music and apps. Family Sharing - Apple Support

  • HT204053 We have 2 apple ID's (one for each of us). How do I change the apple ID on my ipad?

    My wife and I each have an apple ID for our ipad. How do we change the apple ID on our ipad for Iclouds? Can't seem to do it.

    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")

  • My iPhone 5S prompts me for my password to an Apple ID email that no longer exists as an account.  How do I change my Apple ID address without having to change the primary address to a non-existent email account?

    I cannot sign into icloud on my phone because the Apple ID is an email account that has been deactivated and deleted.  How can I change my Apple ID without having to change the primary email address to this non-existent account? If I did so, I wouldn't be able to access the account to receive the verification email. Please help!

    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 should not need to verify the 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.

  • 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.

  • How do I change my apple ID & Icloud ID?

    My kids and I have been sharing the same apple ID and icloud ID so updates mess up all our phones cause eveyones info gets put together then downloaded onto each phone.  So I want to make a seperate account for each of us so our stuff stays on the right phone.  So how do I change my apple ID & Icloud ID and any other ID's without losing anything?

    you can make separate ids, however purchases only follow original ids.  sounds like you need to turn off auto downloads in settings -  itunes and app store.  now you can create separate icloud accounts, but in itunes you will have to repurchase the things you want on those devices.
    Peace, Clyde
