How do i use new apple id on iphone 5c

My new iphone asks me for "Apple ID password" for an email account that I don't use. I can't get in.

Where did you get the phone? If you've encountered the activation lock, you can't get past it without the proper credentials.

  • HT204053 I have one apple ID that my entire family has been using.  How do I create new apple ID's for each of us and move the appropriate content to each new ID from the original apple ID now that we all have our own devices?

    I have been using one apple ID for 4 family members.  Up until now it hasn't been a problem but now that we all have our own devices how do I create new apple ID's for each of us and them move the approprioate things from the original apple ID account to the new ones for each of us?

    Hi kamfong,
    Went to Settings where?
    If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
    1.     Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
    You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
    Cheers,

  • How can I use 2 Apple IDs in Itunes? I have 2 IOS Devices. They each have there own AppleID. What is the proper way to sync both of them to Itunes?

    How can I use 2 Apple IDs in Itunes? I have 2 IOS Devices. They each have there own AppleID. What is the proper way to sync both of them to Itunes? I wanted my teenager's AppleID to be different from mine so that she couldn't charge stuff to my AppleID, therefore I created me another one. Now when I go to Sync either device, it tells me that this IOS device can only be synced with one AppleID. Then I get a message to erase it, not going to do that, lol. If I logout as one ID and login as the other, will it still retain all synced information on the PC from the first IOS device? If I can just log in out of the AppleID, then I have no problem doing that as long as the synced apps, music, etc stays there for both. I am not trying to copy from one to the other, just want to make sure I have a backup for the UhOh times. If logging in and out on the same PC of multiple AppleIDs is acceptible then I need to be able to authorize the PC for both devices. Thanks for the help. I am new to the iOS world.

    "Method Three
    Create a separate iTunes library for each device. Note:It is important that you make a new iTunes Library file. Do not justmake a copy of your existing iTunes Library file. If iTunes is open,quit it.
    This one may work. I searched and searched on the website for something like this, I guess I just didn't search correctly, lol. I will give this a try later. My daughter is not be back for a few weekends, therefore I will have to try the Method 3 when she comes back for the weekend again. "
    I forgot to mention that she has a PC at her house that she also syncs to. Would this cause a problem. I am already getting that pop up saying that the iPod is synced to another library (even though she is signed in with her Apple ID to iTunes) and gives the pop up to Cancel, Erase & Sync, or Transfer Purchases. My question arose because she clicked on "Erase & Sync" by mistake when she plugged the iPod to her PC the first time. When the iPod was purchased and setup, it was synced to my PC first. When she went home, she hooked it up to her PC and then she erased it by accident. I was able to restore all the missing stuff yesterday using my PC. However, even after doing that it still told me the next time I hooked it up last night that the iPod was currently synced with a different library. Hopefully, you can help me understand all this. She wants to sync her iPod and also backup her iPod at both places. Both PCs have been authorised. Thanks

  • How to sync wifes new iphone4 to my iphone 3g with both on my apple id?

    how to sync wifes new iphone4 to my iphone 3g with both on my apple id?

    I think that might not work.  If you backup your wife's new phone and then try and restore the 3G from that backup I think that you will get an error message because the 3G needs to have the same iOS or higher than the 4 and the 3G can only have iOS 4.2.1  On another note it is not good to use the same ID for imessage on two phones ( if that uis what you plan on also doing) as you will get each others messages

  • How do i use my apple id with ichat?

    how do i use my apple id with ichat?

    Hi,
    Only @Mac.com and MobileMe Apple IDs are valid AIM names as well  (And the Passwords need to be 16 characters of Less - AIM end Issue).
    If you have any other form of Apple ID then you will need to register for either an @mac.com name  or create an AIM one.
    NOTE The @Mac.com Registration requires you link an active Email to the @Mac.com name.
    THIS CANNOT BE an Email address you have used for an Apple ID already.
    The AIM Registration asks for Email address for Security and Password Recovery and is not Hard Linked in the same way (you could use the same email to set up multiple accounts/Screen Names)
    To state things another way:-
    A MobileMe ID is an Email address.
    It is an Apple ID and will work in those places it is supposed to, iTunes, Apple Support Communities (with Alias set up), Face Time (With Registration) Apple On-Line Store, Mac App Store.
    It is a Vlaid AIM NAme as well (If the password is kept to 16 characters or less).
    @mac.com names are Apple IDs with the same access as above.
    It is a Valid AIM Screen Name.
    If it was registered before MobileMe started it maybe linked to a Current MobileMe account as a valid Email.
    A Current Registration is purposely for iChat use and Requires a Non Apple current Email that is NOT linked to any other Apple ID
    Any other name or Email used to create an Apple ID is not an Email with/through Apple.
    It is NOT a valid AIM screen Name.
    It is only an Apple ID that allows access to the places listed above.
    If it is an email this cannot be used to Register with @mac.com
    I hope this is clear.
