How do I sign out of icloud and use a different apple id

I set up an apple id for my wife and I can not figure out how to sign out of Icloud on her new phone, which is currently using my apple id

Go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign in with the new ID. This deletes the account from her phone, but not from iCloud. When you delete the account your will be prompted about whether to keep or delete the iCloud data from the phone. If she needs to migrate a copy of the data to her new account, choose Keep; then choose Merge with iCloud after signing into the new account.

I changed my email Adress for my Apple ID. How can I sign out of iCloud and put my new email address in for my Apple ID in iCloud?

I changed the email address for my Apple ID and so how can I chAnge it to my new email Adress on my iCloud?

You should have done it the other way arround. You should have started with signing out, before you changed your email. I would suggest to follow these steps...
1. change your email address back to the old one
2. delete your iCloud account from all your devices (especially turn off "Find My iPhone")
3. change your email to your new email address aigain
4. add your iCloud account again

Had to change my Apple ID because the original email address is no longer valid. How do I change the iCloud user name on iMac? I found instructions about signing out of iCloud and signing back end. It asks questions about contact, etc.

Had to change Apple ID due to email address no longer valid. Trying to change id for icloud...saw direction online about signing out of icloud and signing back in...when it ask questions about contacts, photos, etc. being deleted how do I answer those? That just sort of freaks me out.

For the ones that give you an option, select the option you want (keep on the Mac or Delete). For the ones that are simply warning you, click on Delete from Mac.
They will all come back when you sign back on, since all you did was change your existing Apple ID to a new email address. It's the same iCloud account, just with a different name.
It's the only way to get your updated ID signed onto iCloud.

TS4002 How to sign out from iCloud and move to another one without deleting the fist one?

I need to get out from iCloud account to get in to another but without deleting the first one. It's a long story and it's pretty messed up. I really need your help guys. IF it's possible to sign out from iCloud and move to another PLEASE tell me ! Thanks in advice!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can sign into more than one account at once, providing you only need one primary account, what exactly are you trying to do.

HT1923 This article contains the only thing that worked for me. I also had to sign out of iCloud and uninstall it. Then I had to delete all files and folders from all of those applications that were under Program Files, Program Files x86, and Users.

This article contains the only thing that worked for me. I also had to sign out of iCloud and uninstall it. Then I had to delete all files and folders from all of those applications that were under Program Files, Program Files x86, Program Data and Users. My iPhone 4 will now sync with iTunes both in its USB-connected mini dock and over Wi-Fi. It's unfortunate (negligent programming on the part of Apple?) that the upgrade to iTunes 11 did not remove all of those files as part of the upgrade process.

I am having the same issue....Same address for years - same as USPS - I tried 5 times (3 macs and 2 iPhones) and now i have 5 CHARGES for 1.00 each on my credit card. I took the credit card info off so they don't charge me anymore. How can they charge me yet still not allow me to download free updates and say I have an invalid address? I'm sure I will spend weeks or months trying to get a credit out of these incompetent idiots.

How do I sign out of iCloud on an iPad?

My son has an iPad, but it's configured with my wife's iCloud account. Since he's a minor, we've used a 'family' account for music and apps purchases. I'm starting now to set up up with his own iCloud account, but I see that his iPad is already configured to use my wife's iCloud account.
How can I sign out this iCloud account, to begin the process of creating a new one for him?
I see under Settings - iCloud, there is a "delete account" at the bottom, which I'm very reluctant to use, since this is a valid account that my wife uses. SO - is using this button the equivalent of logging off, but not really deleting? Or will it really delete the account?

Go ahead, tap the delete account button. Deleting the account from your iOS device will do just that, it will not delete the data in iCloud.
By the way are you aware that iCloud and iTunes are different accounts. You can maintain separate iCloud accounts and hence separate contacts, calendars etc, etc, though share an iTunes accounts and hence all your music and apps.

How do I sign out of iCloud just on one device? And will deleting my account on iCloud completely delete the account or just on this one device?

I am sharing an iCloud account and I want to sign out of iCloud! But when I go to settings and my iCloud account the account name is ge
Grey as If I can't change it.

That means the Restriction is set that prevents changing accounts. Go to Settings>General>Restrictions and unset it so you can delete the account.
Deleting the account for one device does not effect the account on other devices.

I have the same problem. Unfortunately, the troubleshooting link you added has the first step listed as "Verify that FaceTime is enabled in FaceTime > Preferences" which we (the original poster and I) can't do as our Preferences are greyed out. We can't click on them to verify anything.
In FaceTime itself it's verified my apple id (also double checked via the site) and then it says the email is "verified" but then it freezes and after a minute or so it says "Could not verify the email address. Please check your network connection and try again."
After checking the network connection, it still doesn't work. It's rather frustrating as it all worked fine until about a week or two ago.
Any help would be appreciated.

Forgot to sign out of iCloud and turn off find my Mac before selling.

I Recently sold my MacBook Pro and had it wiped clean at the Genius Bar but didn't know I was supposed to have turned off find my Mac and sign out of iCloud. I went back to the Genius Bar before shipping my computer and asked if I needed to set up the computer again just to sign out of find my Mac/iCloud and the guy had me sign into iCloud and go to find my Mac to make sure my computer wasnt showing up on the map anymore and it wasn't. Since my computer doesn't show up on find my Mac will the buyer still have trouble setting up his iCloud or have access to my info? I don't know if my computer wasn't showing up because it's not turned on and set up right now until the buyer gets it. Just wondering if my info is safe when he tries to set up the computer as his own.

To restore your iPhone, you must turn off 'Find My iPhone' first. If you can't do that on your iPhone directly, you should open https://icloud.com/on your computer with a web browser > log in with your iCloud account > click Find My iPhone > remove your iPhone from Find My iPhone.

How can I sign out of hotmail after using it on my ipad mini?

How do I sign out of my Hotmail account after using it on my ipad mini?

I believe that I have the same issue with iPad Mini with Retina Display, iOS 8.1. No matter which way I delete videos from my iPad, they will still show as "deleted", yet the space is not cleared up. I tried restore and then a full restore (clean setup as a new iPad) and it still does this to me. I can solve it by doing a restore each and every time I download a video and delete it. Rather frustrating. Has been a problem since day 1 of iOS 8. I'm yet to try the power+home button reset. It may very well work, but I am surprised that a "fresh setup" of an iPad didn't resolve it from ever occurring.

How do I sign out of iCloud on my iPad, I can only select the disable feature and I want to get the software back to pre iOS.8. My account tracker app will not sync now because the update was installed.

I Always down load the updates but now I find that my account App does not sync. I cannot seem to be able to revert my software back to the pre IOS 8.0 update.
on the settings page , I am only able to switch off the I cloud drive and not really signing off from the account.
I Would appreciate you advice.

I used this method yesterday and everything was done:
On your iOS device, open Settings menu then choose the Game Center menu.
Tap on the Apple ID (yellow line in the above image) menu then choose Sign Out.
You have done.

How do I sign out of iCloud calendar on my husbands site so he can create his own iCloud account

If you have 2 apple ids, how do you sign out of one and into the other so you can update the app that was purchased in the other account. thanks

If you purchased an app in one account and work mostly in another, how do you switch the purchased app account to update it?
thanks

You need to sign out and back in only if you're on your Mac and you want to update the iTunes data. You'll see a notice saying that there are five (or so) updates but when you go to download them, they're not all present. So you download them, sign out from one ID and sign back in with the other ID. Then you can download the remaining ones.
If you're downloading directly to the iPad, everything is transparent. It does not matter what ID is configured in Settings. The iPad automatically chooses the correct ID or IDs when updates are available.
