How do I reset my Apple ID email that is already locked in when it asks me for password when I turn on iPod touch?

I recently changed cable providers, so my email changed too.  I was able to change my iMac to a new email and reset the password, but I am not able to use that email with my iPod touch.  It still has my old email locked in when it asks me for my password.  I don't remember the pasword because I tried to modify it when I did my iMac, and can't remember which password and capital letters I used.  I am not able to back up my iCloud and am afraid to finally upgrade the software until I have this problem fixed.  My secret question answersare wrong, and can't use the old email to reset because I have no access to that email account anymore.  Can anyone help?  If not I got to pay $19 to Apple support to fix it.  Thanks.

    How come when I go check for my purchased apps on my iPod touch 4g ios 6.1 it loads long then it crashes. Can this be fixed ?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.alredy suggested
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Does anyone know how to correct an incorrect Apple ID (email) that was entered when setting up new iPhone 4S?

    While setting up new iPhone 4S, I mistakenly mistyped my Apple ID (email address) so when I go to app store, that incorrect account is revealed.  Trying to figure out how to change the Apple ID on the iPhone 4S to correct info.  Anyone know how to do this?  Thanks in advance for you help.

    It is most unlikely your replacement is anything other than new
    Refurbs are recycled through the Apple supplier's Factories
    I doubt that there has been time for that process and has already been mentioned early failures
    are probably checked out thoroughly before being recycled
    In any event you would never know the difference between new and a refurb
    I have had  x2 in past and certainly could not
    depending on your consuer laws you can probably get your money back
    if you are that concerned

  • HT4623 I changed my Apple ID email on my iPad and now whenever it asks me for the pass on my iPods it uses the wrong eMail. What do I do????

    Ahhhh! I changed the Apple ID for my iTunes account because I don't really use that email anymore. When I did all was well until my iPod 5 started to ask for the password using a pop up which is normal. But when I typed in the password I realized that it didn't have the right email. What should I do to fix it?

    Maybe:
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
    Just what are yo doing when the message occurs?

  • How do I update apps under an old apple id email that doesn't exist anymore and have forgotten the password?

    I want to update some apps on my iphone but can't because it's asking for an old apple id email that doesn't exist anymore and I have forgotten the password for it!
    Help!!!

    The apple id login is never deleted. The emaill address itself can be disabled or not in use any longer. The apple id login will still be available to you. If you will go to the website My Apple Id
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    and use the listed apple id login that your apps are asking for to update - once you have changed the password at the lsted website you then will be able to update using the old apple id once you have logged into the device using the old apple id and password.
    Good luck.

  • How do I reset my apple id security question with out a rescue email

    How do I reset my apple id security question with out a rescue email?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    Thanks Lawrence. I've spent over 3 hours on the phone/chatting to online support and none of it seemed to help as it all revolved around resetting emails etc but can't do any of it without my access to my old email. Now my phone won't take cloud because they advised to set up new apple ID and use that, but can't sign out of old one completely. Also doesn't help because my phone and laptop are set up on the old one. Thanks for the help.

    How do I set up a rescue email on an already existing Apple ID

    Hey lehrke5555,

    1. Navigate to My Apple ID using your web browser.
    2. Click "Manage your account"
    3. When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    4. Click Password & Security
    5. You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so. 
    6. After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
    Please note that you will need to know the answers to your security questions to setup a rescue email address. If you do not know the answers to your security questions, follow the instructions to contact iTunes Store Support.

  • HT204053 how do i reset my additional iCloud email password which i forgot because of all your new pw requirements

    how do i reset my additional iCloud email password which i forgot because of your new PW requirements

    The password for your iCloud email is the same as the password where you sing into System Preferences>iCloud or http://icloud.com - can you sign in in the latter? If so and your email doesn't work you should sign out in System Preferences>iCloud and sign back in again, and check Mail and any other data tyupes you want to sync. You data will disappear from your Mac when you do this but re-appear when you sign back in again.
    If you can't sign in at http://icloud.com you should go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Reset password' - sign in with your iCloud login and follow the instructions.
