How do I change the account apple ID for my Icloud on the ipad?

I recently changed my apple ID. But the icloud account information won't update to the new id on my ipad and iphone. Suggestions?

To change the iCloud ID on your iPad, you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPad, 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 iPad 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 do I change one persons apple id for a shared account, without losing previous purchases for either?

    I have two children who have shared an Apple ID for the iPod Touches.  The older is now getting an iPhone and is old enough to manage his own ID.  My question is, if we set him up with a completely new Apple ID, will he be able to sync the phone with iTunes as a new device, even though iTunes currently syncs with his iPod?  I guess what I'm asking is, can two different Apple ID's/devices sync with the same iTunes without messing up either device or getting the wrong information sync'd?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    You don't. Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them.

  • How can I change my primary apple id for my mac

    I am just setting up my new mac and I accidentally put the wrong email for my apple id and now it is set as my primary id for my computer.  I have an old email that my apple id was originally connected to.  All of my files and music are synced to that id.  I tried to change the email to the one I accidentally entered thinking it would be a quick fix, but when I did that in mac set up it was like setting up a new id all together.  ( so now that email is taken)  How can I fix this to where I can connect this computer to my old apple id and get rid of the the id its associated with now?
    Thank you!

  • When my husband and I first bought our iPhones, I was the only one with an Apple ID (since he never used iTunes). He used my apple id to get apps. Now he has his own ID, but my account keeps popping up on his phone. How can we change the ID on his phone?

    When my husband and I first bought our iPhones, I was the only one with an Apple ID (since he never used iTunes). He used my apple id to get apps. Now he has his own ID, but my apple ID email address keeps popping up on his phone when he tries to download an app. We do not want to have all of the same apps on our phones. How can we change the ID on his phone? I already tried going to Settings>iTunes &App Store> and changing the Apple ID to his account email and that did not solve the problem. To make things worse, I recently changed my Apple ID email address (without getting a new ID) and I do not remember my old password (and this is the address that is popping up on his phone). He does not have any music on his phone and all of the Apps that he has are free.  Any help you could offer would be great (-:

    All apps are forever tied to the Apple ID that bought them. To stop your id from popping up, you need to delete the apps on his phone, and then repurchase them under his account.

  • I created an Apple ID for iTunes using a work email address and left that company before I had an opportunity to change the email and password for that account.  How do I change the email address to a new one that I can access?

    I created an Apple ID for iTunes using a work email address and left that company before I had an opportunity to change the email and password for that same account.  Now I can't seem to login to that account and I can't choose the option for forgot password because it will send email to the old workplace.  How do I change the email address to a new one that I can access?

    If you remeber the password to that Apple ID then follow these steps
    1 - Make sure you have an email address that is NOT an Apple ID
    2 - Go to AppleID.Apple.com
    3 - Where it reads Manage Apple ID - Sign in
    Once you are signed in want to make sure the email address you are wanting to use is NOT set up as a "Recovery/Rescue" email for this account.
    [To check this - Main page where you see Primary ID - below do you see the email address you want to use listed towards the bottom? Yes - Delete / No - Good ./. If made any adjustments "Save" Next on the left select "Password & Security" - Answer your security questions you set up "if you have any" then scroll towards the bottom and check to see if you see the email address you want to use. Yes - Delete / No - Good] <-> Also you can change your password on this page as well. Any adjustments made "Save"
    Once this is done go back to the main page where you should read "Primary ID" and change the email address that is showing to the new email address youo want. "Save" Done
    I learned this not to long ago and worked for me. Hope this helps you!

  • I signed up for my apple account while living in Canada, and now I lives in the US. I am looking for a specific app that apparently is only available through the US app store. How can I change my account to the US Apple Store?

    As long as you have a form of payment (credit or debit card) with a USA source, and with a billing address in the USA, then you just need to change your payment information on your account to that, change your country in the store settings, and you will then be able to shop in the USA store.
    Your AppleID will work in any country's store, as long as your payment source and billing addres are also specific to that country (and you are in that country as well, as there may be IP filters in place to stop use outside of the country).

  • How do I change the Apple ID associated with my iTunes account?

    How do I change the Apple ID associated with my iTunes account?
    I have an apple ID that i have associated with my account but I want to change it to another ID that I just created.  I needed to create this new ID so that both my wife and I can use the ID for our shared iTunes account and then we each have our own apple IDs with our own calendars, contacts, etc.

    Change it on what way ? You can update the primary email address on an account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on an iOS device and signing into the account, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com
    If you want to log out of the account so that you can log in with a different account then tap on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store if using an iOS device and sign out, or on a computer's iTunes use the Store > Sign Out menu option. Any content downloaded by the currently logged in account will remain tied to that account, so only that account will be able to redownload it and/or download updates to its apps

    Hello pscorning1,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your question. If you have already changed the information associated with your current Apple ID (*not* created an entirely new Apple ID), you may find the following article about updating the various Apple ID services helpful:

  • Once you have set up your iCloud account... how do I change the iCloud on my iPhone to a different Apple ID?

    I have set up the iCloud on the iPhone with a Apple ID different from the ID , I use for the Apple Store. I want to change it to the same ID, How can I change the Apple ID on the iCloud??

    Hi
    https://appleid.apple.com/
    and
    https://www.icloud.com
    are two different accounts
    Therefore you should still use your "old" (existing) iCloud mail address - you cannot change the iCloud mail address.
    However you could add an alias instead to you iCloud account.

    it might be better to completely restore the phone. hold down both the home and power buttons at the same time as soon as the screen shuts off let go of the power button but continue to hold the home button and in a few seconds you will get the connect iphone to itunes logo connect the phone to the computer while itunes is open you will get a popup on the computer screen saying that itunes has detected a phone in recovery mode follow the prompts on the screen and you will have a fully factory restored iPhone 4
