How do i change my i cloud e mail address

how can I change/edit my I cloud address

Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change the address (short of creating an entirely new account).
However, all is not lost. You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.

    how do i change my i cloud e-mail address?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    If youi have already done that and are wanting to replicate the change on your iOS device:
    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")
    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.

  • How do I change the iTunes receipt e-mail address?

    How do I change the iTunes receipt e-mail address? I keep getting receipts at my old e-mail address but want to change it to a new e-mail address. I changed the login name to my new e-mail address but I guess that only changes the login name, not the actual e-mail address in Apple's database.

    I got some help from iTunes support, and it seems to work.
    If you have a .Mac iTunes account, and you want to change the email address:
    First, change your primary email address at myinfo.apple.com.
    Then:
    "Due to an issue with the store, you must follow the instructions below to change your email address of record:
    1. Verify that you have an active network connection and open iTunes.
    2. Click “Music Store” from the Source list.
    3. Click on the Account button in the upper right corner. The Account field will either display your iTunes Music Store Account ID or “Sign In.”
    4. Enter the account name and password of the iTunes Music Store account.
    5. Click “View Account”
    6. On the Account Information page click “Edit Credit Card”
    7. Re-enter your billing address information, adding a space at the end of your address. This will force the account to refresh and apply your new email address.
    Please rest assured that we are aware of the issue and are working to resolve it as soon as possible."

  • HT204053 I need to change my i cloud e-mail address to the same one I set up when I purchased my apple account I just created an I cloud address and when Ijust read the set up for I cloud it says  I should use the same e-mail address that I started with H

    I did not know that when I created a e-mail address that I was suppose to use the same one that I created when I first signed up with Apple I phone. I want to change my e-mail address to the one I first had How can I change it? I do not need two e-mail accounts It should have read that when you are setting up an e-mail address use the one that you first signed up with. Not after you go through all the set ups for I cloud it tells you at the end to use your account that you first started with. Can you please help me I am new at this and I still can not set up on my computer with my phone to I cloud so if I had my phone stollen I can find it I also have and I pad to set up yet It is 3 days and I still can not set it up
    Thank You and Hoplefully I can change my e-mail address so I can have everything on one account

    If you selected open a new Apple ID account, go back a step and enter use existing Apple ID.
    You will have to set up a separate iCloud account or your iPads will mirror each other.

  • How can I change my primary @ me e-mail address in the cloud after it is set up?

    I set up the cloud recently and in error put my daughter's @ me instead of my own, how do I undue this so I can add my @ me and make her's the alias? Thanks.

    You cannot and need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    This is your husband's app, only your husband can update it. Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID that purchased them. No other Apple ID can update someone else's app.

    How do I change the default apple id (email address) that is prompted on my iPhone? It prompts me with an id that I do not have and cannot access.

    When do you get prompted for this ID? If you are asked for an AppleID
    you do not know during Activation, contact the seller for assistance. Only
    the person who set the Activation Lock can remove it. If the seller refuses
    or does not know the requested AppleID and passcode, return the iPhone
    for a full refund as it is useless. There is no work around for Activation Lock,
    The person who set the lock needs to follow the actions in this link:
    Prepare your device to sell or give away
    You can check if Activation Lock is the problem here:
    https://www.icloud.com/activationlock/
    That link will only tell you if the iPhone is Activation Locked - it will not provide
    any information about the source of the lock, nor can you get any information
    from any source other than the original owner of the iPhone/person who set
    the lock.
