How do I change the Apple ID listed in my iPhone iCloud settings?

I've been trying to move to iCloud on my iPhone 4. However, somehow, the Apple ID in my Settings > iCloud is incorrect. I can't find a way to change it - the edit option when the password fails doesn't allow me to change the Apple ID, only the password. Any thoughts?

Thank you! I should have known it would be that simple...

  • How do you change the Apple ID displayed on an iPhone to the correct one?

    I managed to change the Apple ID on all my devices except my wife's iPhone. When it tries to access the iCloud it still asks for out old Apple ID and I can't figure out how to change it. Any advice?

    Go to Settings, iTunes & App Stores, click on the Apple ID. Sign out. Click again and sign in with your Apple ID.
    Is it possible that this someone in your contact list had the phone and downloaded an app for you?

    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")

  • Itunes on my iPhone 5 only displays the artist list with the UP NEXT feature.  How can I change the UP NEXT feature on my iPhone 5 to display the next songs that are to be played on my play list?

    Itunes on my iPhone 5 only displays the artist list with the UP NEXT feature.  How can I change the UP NEXT feature on my iPhone 5 to display the next songs that are to be played on my play list?

    Hi Sarah,
    It sounds like the songs have either not yet synced over to the iPhone, or something went wrong when attempting to sync to the iPhone. My recommendation is to uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox.
    Once you have done that, recheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPhone, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.
    If the above does not resolve your issue, see the following articles:

  • HT5621 How do I change the Apple ID stored on my MacBook Air?  I have changed my Apple ID on the Apple ID website, but both my MacBook Air and my iMac show the old Apple ID when accessing iCloud.

    How do I change the Apple ID that is stored on my MacBook Air.  I have changed my Apple ID on the Apple ID website but both my MacBook Air and my iMac show the old Apple ID when accessing iCloud.

    I had this problem on my iMac and fixed it after a  half hour of frustrated trying.  I had changed my Apple ID on my iPad mini while traveling.  When I finally got back home after a few months, I couldn't  log in to iTunes on my iMac.  The old Apple ID was still being used on my iMac.  I tried just highlighting it and deleting it and typing in my new Apple ID.  No dice. The login just defaulted to my old Apple ID.  I tried clicking on the drop down menu that appears when you right right click your Apple ID  that appears at the top of the page after highlighting the 'iTunes Store" in the left side list.  I saw "account" so I clicked on that.  The "account" settings on my iMac showed my new Apple ID but my iMac wouldn't use it. It just kept defaulting to my old ID. I shut down.  I logged back in.  Same result.  Finally I right clicked the same drop down menu and saw "sign out" at the bottom of the list.  Even though I was not signed in to iTunes, I clicked "sign out".  My next log in to iTunes showed my Apple ID as blank and I was able to type in my new ID.  Hope this helps.
    I am a long time 20 year Microsoft user. I am somewhat ( 1 year) new to Apple. With Microsoft, I found that fixing problems was clunky and complex, but there was always a post somewhere that explained the fix. Microsoft's explanations stated even the most obvious fact. Even if everyone knew that the sky was blue, Microsoft's instructions would still tell you that the sky was blue.  With Apple, I find that the obvious is sometimes not so obvious.  But the fix is almost always easy once you find it, without many of the elaborate maneuvers needed in Windows.

    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:

    Alternately, he can erase the device and set it up as new using the steps in this article:

  • 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.

  • I have some apps on my iPad that were installed using an old apple ID. They can't be updated because the old ID is no longer valid. How can I change the apple ID associated with these apps?

    I installed some apps using an apple I'd that is no longer active. I can't update them because it asks for the password of the old I'd instead of the I'd I currently use. How can I change the apple I'd associated with these apps? I still want to use them. One app I paid for using the old I'd. The other app is free. I have already tried deleting them and reinstalling them.

    If you simply just changed the email associated with that appleid you can just delete and Re-download the apps.
    You can verify  the above step by going to the App Store on device > Updates>Purchased - if you see the app there just delete it from the home screen and redownload from the purchased section
    Now if you got rid of that account entirely, you will have to delete and re-purchase on your new account

  • HT3965 I got what appears to be a reconditioned (pre-owned) iPod Touch 4 for Christmas.  How can I change the Apple ID on tis device so I can use it with my iTunes Acct and Wi-Fi network?  Thanks.

    I received what appears to be a reconditioned iPod Touch 4th for Christmas.  How do I change the Apple ID on the device to my ID so I can use my iTunes account?  Thanks for any help/

    It would probably be best to attach the iPod to a computer and restore it. This way you'll know it's wiped clean. Then, when you start up the iPod it will ask you for your Apple ID.
