How do I change the e-mail address associated with Facetime on my iPhone?

On my iPhone, under Settings -> Facetime, if I switch this to "on", I am immediately prompted to provide a password assocaited to an old e-mail address. How do I change this e-mail address?
My app store account is correct, and I don't think this old e-mail is lurking anywhere else on my phone.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, but I did not see this space to enter a new e-mail as Facetime was set to "off" and every time I turned it on it wanted me to provide a passowrd for my old, non-existent AppleID.
I just noticed, however, that if you just let it fail to log in with the old e-mail three times, THEN it give you a chance to provide a new e-mail via a new prompt "SIgn in with your Apple ID?", which worked.
So lesson learned: let if fail first, then you can fix it,but not before it fails. :-/

  • For FaceTime, can you add an additional e-mail that is not your Apple ID e-mail?  Everytime I try to do this on my iPad it sends me a verification e-mail saying I am trying to change the e-mail address associated with my apple ID and wants me to verify.

    I am trying to add another e-mail address to FaceTime, but do not want to change the e-mail address associated with my Apple ID.  Everytime I try to add the e-mail address in my FaceTime settings, it send me a verification e-mail asking me to verify that I want to change to this new e-mail address for my apple ID.  I do not.  I just want to have an additional e-mail address for people to contact me via FaceTime. Does anyone know how to do this?

    You can have multiple addresses associated with your apple id. You will have to verify any changes before they can be added and this is done by sending you an email. This is to protect you from someone else makeing changes to your account.
    You can make any changes and view all your info here:

    How do I change the e-mail address default on the icloud without losing the contacts saved?

    Each iCloud account can only have a single iCloud email account.  As such, you can't have a different email account on your iPod if it is using the same iCloud account. 
    You can create additional alias email addresses within this iCloud account, but they will all receive email in the same inbox as the primary icloud email address.

  • HT204053 I no longer have the e-mail address associated with the apple ID for iCloud.  The password I have written for that account is deemed wrong, as is the security information (i.e. my birthdate).  How do I eliminate this incorrect account and start a

    I no longer have the e-mail address associated with an Apple ID.  I do not know the password for that account, nor are the security questions correct (e.g. it asked my birth date, but, when I listed it, I was told it was not correct).  I have no way to get into the program, to correct an information.  How do I delete this account and start anew?

    If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  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. 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.  You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then  on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • How do I change my primary @me address associated with my Apple ID.

    To be clear, I know how to change my Apple ID, but I don't know how to change the primary @me address associated with it.  I have seen many people reply about setting up aliases through icloud as well responses that continue to explain how to change your Apple ID.  I do not want to change my Apple ID.  I want to change the @me email address associated with it.

    See the FAQ - http://support.apple.com/kb/HE37 cannot be done for those special cases of @mac.com and @me.com addresses.  You can add a secondary address to the AppleID if you no longer use or receive mail at the primary, but those primary cannot be altered.

  • How can I get my e-mail address associated with Adobe Digital Editions?

    How can I get my e-mail address associated with Adobe Digital Editions?

    gjortega,
    Your sidekick may be relaying through a different server. If its on AT&T, it could be using cwmx.com for outgoing. However, cwmx.com only works for AT&T/Cingular EDGE customers. When on Wi-fi it won't allow you to send through it.
    Many internet providers, but not all, provide an authenticating SMTP server to use when travelling. If you configured your outgoing server to use the email providers authenticating SMTP server information on a port different from port 25, you will be able to use it on most networks. Some wireless networks filter a wider range of ports, such as some work places.
    This article discusses the issue in more detail:

  • How can I change the e-mail address that shows when I try to order from iBooks?

    Hi.  I recently had to change my e-mail address, and successfully changed my Apple ID to reflect the new e-mail.  However, while trying to order a book through iBooks today, I noticed that I was asked for my password and that my old e-mail was showing.  How can I change the old address to the new one so that I can order from iBooks?  Thank you.

    Hi, fromsouth, and thank you for your reply.  When I go to store, there is no place that says "sign out" so I can't do this.  My old email is showing, and when I click on it I am asked for my password.  I tried my old password that I used with that email, but was told it was incorrect.  This is so frustrating!  I can't do any ordering on my iPad until this problem is solved.  Thanks again.

  • How can I change the name of devices associated with my Apple ID in iTunes?

    We have 3 iPads and 4 iPhones in our family.  All of the iPads show up on the list of devices associated with my Apple ID as simply "iPad".  All of the iPhones show up simply as "iPhone", even though each device has a distinct name on the device itself (ie. Mark's iPhone).  How can I get the distinct name to show up on the list of devices so I can keep the list updated as we add or remove devices from our collection?

    Not it it's an @icloud.com, @me.com or @mac.com address.  In that case your choices are to either create an email alias within the existing account, which delivers email to your existing iCloud inbox (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a), or create a new iCoud account.  Note: alias addresses are permanently tied to the account that you create them in; they cannot be used to create a new iCloud account or be moved to a different account in the future.

  • How do I change the e-mail address for my merchant account

    Aloha
    I have a different primary address for my PayPal account than the one listed for my merchant account in my form
    the different address is for the same PayPal account just a different e-mail address
    I would like to change that for the responses
    how do I do that??

    Hi,
    You just need to register the email address you want for your PayPal account to the form, so that the current PayPal email used by the form will be replaced. To do that, simply open the form, go to Options -> Collect Payments. In the PayPal Setup tab, enter the new email address and click Register.
    Please let me know if you need more assistance.

  • Iphone Notes - how do I change the default mail address?

    This a variation of the question of why my notes FROM the Iphone do not sync into Outlook Notes, anymore.
    In my Iphone Notes set up, it refers to my gmail address as the default address.  In my Mail, I have two Outlook addresses, with one being the default mail.
    Having found some of my missing notes in my Gmail notes, I now think my problem is in the address.
    But I cannot see any way to change my Notes default address to one of my Outlook addresses.  No matter how much I try, a change will not activate.
    Question:  what steps do I take to change my Notes default address from [email protected] to [email protected] ?
    Thank you

    The default email address can be set via Settings > Notes
    Whether an email address will appear on that list will depend upon whether you have notes 'on' for the account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars (select the account on the right-hand side of that screen)

  • Is there a way to change the icloud email address associated with your Apple ID?

    I had an Apple ID long before iCloud came around.  Naturally, my username was my email address, let's say [email protected]  I signed up for an @me email address when they started just to try it out, but never used it.  Either by default or by my own decision, my @me account became the same as my old email address: [email protected]  Later, Apple issued the @icloud email addresses, so I now have: [email protected] as well.  I want to set up a different icloud address, one that I would actually use, let's say [email protected]  Then, I would like to associate that address with my Apple ID and delete the oldaddress@icloud address altogether.  Can I do this and if so how?
    Thanks for the advice.

    Since your Apple ID is already associated with the current iCloud account (and the account cannot be delete, it can only be abandoned), you can't use it to create another.  You would need to create a new Apple ID with a new non-Apple email address to create a new iCloud account.  You can still use your current ID for everything else; the iCloud ID does not need to be the same as the ID you use for other services (iTunes, etc.).
    You would then have to migrate your iCloud data to the new account and turn on your iCloud data syncing.  When you turn Mail to On, you can create your new @icloud email address (but type carefully since once created it cannot be changed).  You @me iCloud email address would remain associated with the iCloud account you are leaving but it sounds like you don't want to use it anyway.  You can set up email forwarding to forwared email sent to your @me address to your new @icloud address while your contacts transition to your new address.
    If that sounds like something you want to do, I can give you the steps to migrate your data to the new account.

  • How do i delete the primary email address associated with my apple id?

    My husband deleted the Outlook email account that was associated with my Apple ID as the primary email.  I have two alternate emails also associated with the same Apple ID.  How can I delete the old, Outlook email and use one of the alternates as a primary?  I have tried to do this under "manage my account," but there is no option to delte the primary and select one of the alternates in its place.
    I also cannot receive confirmation emails from Apple at the old, primary email address because it has been terminated.  Other Apple help posts indicated this could be a problem, as I need that old account to receive emails pertaining to a switch.

    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • HT204053 How do I change the charging credit card associated with my iTunes account?

    I need to change my credit card info.  How do I do that?

    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 or move it to another account.
    More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
