How do I change my icloud account on iPhone

I recently reset my iphone at with the help of the Genius Bar staff and now I notice that I have a different email address and password on icloud on my iphone than I have on my ipad and MacBook Pro.  I want to change the iphone icloud information so that it aligns with my laptop and ipad.  Any help wouldl be greatly appreciated.

You have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in using the account you want.  If all your data is already in the other account, when you are prompted, you can choose Delete from My iPhone. 
If, however, you need to migrate any data you are syncing with the current iCloud to the new iCloud account, when prompted be sure to choose Keep on My iPhone.  Then, when you sign into the other account and turn on your iCloud syncing again, choose Merge to merge this data with the data in the account you are signing into.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • HT3965 how do i change the iCloud account information on my iPhone?

    How do i change the iCloud Account information for an iphone.  I set up my wifes iPhone and my phone with the same iCloud Account name name.  Later, i added another phone on my ATT account for my mother, but made an Apple iCloud Account in her name.  Now, to use the find my iphone feature, i need to change her iCloud account user name to be the same as mine.  How do I change that?

    You dont need to change the iCloud account to use that feature, when you use find my iPhone all you would need to do is sign into her iCloud account to locate her iPhone.
    If you want to change the account used on the iPhone for iCloud then go to settings>icloud and select the option at th bottom that says "delete account" then select "keep on my iphone". After that you then sign in with your iCloud account.

  • How do I unlock my iPhone with my IMEI code on iTunes. And how do I change the iCloud account connecting to the phone?

    My sister got the 5S, so she has given me her old 4S. She got the IMEI code from her network to allow me to unlock it. When I plug the phone into my computer, how do I use the IMEI code to unlock it on iTunes. The text my sis got from O2 says, "Apple have confirmed the iPhone IMEI 01.....etc. is set to unlock. To complete, connect the device to iTunes with a SIM never used in the iPhone". But I'm not sure what to do, I already connecting the iPhone with my SIM to iTunes... What next? Also how do I change the iCloud account connected to the phone (hers) to my own?
    Thanks.
