How do I change my password on iCloud?
I just bought an iPhone 4s. How do I change the password for iCloud?
Michael,
I tried this and iCloud would not accept my apple ID password. Question: I saw somewhere that to get all your mail switched over to the iCloud with an iPhone 4s you have to delete the me.com mail account you had previously. Is this correct?

My Icloud is tuck on my old email adress. i can not retreive the password becaue when i request the email it doent get sent to thi adress. how can i change it sothat my icloud is on my new email. i cant login or out of icloud now.
To change the iCloud ID on your phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap 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 iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then 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.

How come every time I change my password for iCloud, iMessage, Apple, it either messes up on my Mac or iPhone.
I'm not sure what you mean by "messes up", but the most common reason to have trouble with one device after changing the password from another is that you have to actually go around to all of your devices and change the saved password for your Apple ID on each one if you change it on one of them, they don't update automatically. If you change the password and don't change it on your devices, then they don't know the password has changed until you try to use them.

How can I change game centre and iCloud account information from previous owner of my iPad?
How can I change game centre and iCloud account information from previous owner to me?
You can't do it on your own. The previous owner has to erase the device for you. You would need his Apple ID and password in order to delete his iCloud account. This is due to the Activation Lock in iOS 7 - assuming that your iPad is running iOS 7.
Contact the owner and ask home to erase it remotely using iCloud, or return the device and ask for your money back. If you can't contact the pervious owner, you will have a useless iPad on your hands.
Read this for more information. This is what you need the previous owner to do.

How can I change the password on my stolen iphon5 which shares data with my ipad2
If you had Find My iPhone activated on your iPhone, you can remotely wipe it, which you can do through iCloud on your computer. If you did not have Find My iPhone active on your phone you're out of luck.
You should immediately change all passwords for your Apple ID, email, any apps where you had a password, or any where you have credit cards tied to shopping. -
would like to change ,my password. I signed in but I don't know what was my answer for the 2 security question. How can I change my password?
Hello, dot mac & MobtleMe no longer exist, though it may be possible to still use a dot mac addy... or maybe not if expired.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
• Server name: imap.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 993
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
• Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 587
• SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to http://appleid.apple.com then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
Thanks to dpepper...

How do i reset my password on icloud if i cant even answer my security question
i went to change my password on icloud for security reasons. i was asked of two questions that im not sure if i ever gave the information on thequestions to begin with how do i get somebody to help me rteset my password please
If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.
If you are in a region that doesn't have international telephone support try contacting Apple through iTunes Store Support. -
How do I change the password on my IPhone?
How do I change the password on my IPhone? I am using a card that belonged to my former daughter in law and I cannot get the original password. I need it to change the Restrictions setting because all of a sudden my ITunes apps won't download when I sync my phone....just photos and music. Apps list is "grayed" out.
No, not on the home screen. I clicked on Settings + Restrictions (which is set at "Yes" and I need to change it to "No") and the number pad came up and wanted the password. My son says its the password that was put on originally when the phone was new (by his ex-wife who owned the phone at the time.) So now I cannot retrieve the original password from her and cannot change the Restrictions setting and therefore, cannot fix my ITunes/Apps problem. So aggravating! But thanks for your response!

How can we change the password in the iBook donated to our nonprofit? No password was given with the iBook and every time we try to install items, the password window pops up. We need to put in printer and other software. Help! We can use the laptop without changing the password.
If you did not get an OS X install-restore DVD with the computer you may need
to buy one from somewhere, and you may be lucky to get a retail OS X 10.5.x
version. The original grey-label install set of software and OS X it shipped with
likely would be an older system than Leopard 10.5. Last versions of G4 Mac, &
G5, shipped with a Tiger 10.4 system; so did early Intel-based Mac. Grey discs
which accompanied other computer build models generally do not interchange.
The last OS X version a PowerPC architecture can use, if supported, is 10.5.8.
A PPC processor at 867MHz & faster should be able to run OS X 10.5 Leopard.
{With the correct disc installer, you can use it to change a password and other
things including re-install, and perform disk utility functions, etc.}
There is a chance you may be able to get a white-label Replacement 10.4 DVD
or Replacement 10.5 DVD from AppleCare or the online Apple Store (800myapple)
from a Mac OS X system specialist; these have been available yet hard to get
as not all persons involved with them seem to know if they still exist until someone
is asking. These aren't retail stock, are special discs for computers who could use
a system later than original old discs; these are complete install discs not for one
specific series of Mac. Generally they'd work in supported PowerPC G4/G5; but
do not replace specialized original install DVD, such as an early Intel mac requires.
You'd need to have a serial number of the computer, and a method of payment
when seeking some replacement system media from Applecare or Apple sales
and these discs are not available in a retail store. The original Retail discs are
labeled differently and shipped in a retail box with a big X on the front. Other
sources for retail 10.4 Tiger or 10.5 Leopard may be online via amazon sellers
or computer resellers who handle repaired Macs. Avoid mystery grey label ones
that were intended to be sold and kept with their original computer kits.
Good luck! -

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.
