How do you change id and email

I have changed my id and email at apple.com. Icloud doesnt give option to edit id in settings. How do i change that?

Welcome to the Apple community.
You need to delete the account (settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the "delete account" button) and then re-add your account using your updated details.

  • HT201342 How do you change passwords in email accounts??? Just got new iPhone and no record of previous passwords.....

    How do you change passwords in email accounts?? Have new iPhone and no record of previous passwords. Dumb I know but I'm in a real bind.....

    See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5787.  (Your iCloud ID is also an Apple ID.)  If you don't have access to your old email account and can't use security question authentication to reset your password, you'll have to do one of the following to turn off Find My iPhone so you can chang the iCloud account on your phone:
    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 should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. 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 and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was.  You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so.  You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • How do you change your rescue email if you have forgotten your security questions?

    I've had my IPad for about 2 years now and I have bought a lot of apps since but all of a sudden it asks me to answer my security questions whenever i try to buy an app! I click the link to the apple Id page and it says resend security information to my email. apparently the end of my email ends with yahoo.com and whenever I log on to that it's yahoo.ca and I cannot find the email with the instructions to change my security questions!! So please me as this has never occurred before! How do you change your rescue email if you have forgotten your security questions? And can you somehow purchase apps without answering your security questions because I just put 25 dollars onto my apple id and I don't want it to go to waste! Please help me!

    You won't be able to change the rescue email address until you can answer 2 of your questions, you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down this page to update your rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

    Hello eric-evans,
    If by Apple account you mean you changed your Apple ID, you should be advised that your Apple ID is used or tied into a number of different functions and services. If you have changed your Apple ID, you may find the information and steps in the following article helpful. In particular, with regard to Messages, you would want to double-check that the steps are done in the order listed.

  • How do you change the default email client (Mail) to Outlook when sharing?

    In iPhoto I used Outlook as the default email to forward photos to friends.  How do you change it from Mail in Photos to Outlook?

    I am having the same problem.
    Just updated to OS X 10.10.3.
    The new Photos app will not link to Microsoft Outlook.
    Never had this problem with previous versions of iPhoto.
    I have a thread going on this topic:
    The new "Photos" will not link to Outlook email.
    Apple needs to update Photos 1.0.

  • HT204053 How do you change the iCloud email address?

    Made a typo when adding to icloud and address is incorrect.  How do I change it?
    Thanks!

    You can't change an iCloud email address.  To create a new address you would have to create a new iCloud account.
    You can, however, create an email alias to use in your current iCloud account which will receive email in your current iCloud inbox.  See http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a.

  • How do I change password and email address?

    I cannot change my password and email address because I am based in the UK and not in the US. When I try to make a change and save it, it says I have made a mistake on the fields marked red and asks me to complete the parts in red including: the state I live in and because I am not in a state it doesn't allow me to change my details. It also has a problem with my country's telephone code. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

  • TS3276 how do you change a Pop email account to a IMAP

    One of our family's email accounts does not work properly.  We have multiple Apple products.  My son's email was originally set up on my MacBook Pro as a Pop account.  Then it was set up on my iphone as a Pop account.  Next it was set up on the Ipad as an IMAP account because that was how my daughter's email was set up on it.  The email works on the MacBook every once in awhile.  It works on my iphone whenever a new email is incoming.  The rest of the time it says invalid password.  AT&T says that MacBook Pros can't handle Pop email.  (although it used to work just fine)  How can I change his email from a Pop to an IMAP?

    MacBook Pro's (along with any other Macintosh) can handle POP email just fine.  The email type is set by your mail provider, so you just need to create a mail account (in the Mail preferences) with the settings they specify.

  • How do you change your rescue email address if it's wrong and you need to update your security questions for your Apple I'D?

    When downloading apps I am asked for my apple ID which works but I can't get past the security questions. Then when I ask to reset the questions it sends an email to a rescue email address that no longer exists. Does anybody know where I can reset this email address?

    On your computer or safari on your iOS device navigate to:
              For Canada - https://appleid.apple.com/ca.
              For United States - https://appleid.apple.com/us/.
    Click the "Manage your Apple ID" button, and sign in to your iCloud account.  Once in, on the left side select "Password and Security", and this will populate our options on the right side.  You should see an option to reset your security questions. 
    Also see this article - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312. 
    If for any reason you can not reset these security questions, or get an error, then you may need to contact Apple directly at 1 800 692 7753.  Explain the issue, and they can get your to a "Account Security" agent, who will be able to verify your identity, and assist in resetting the security questions.

  • How do you change the Selected Email Client

    I have created a form that submits XML data by email.
    The first time you click the "Submit by Email" button, a dialogue box opens up and asks you to select one of 3 options: "Desktop Email Application", "Internet Email" or "Other".
    The problem that is occurring is that people will either not read the statement or out of ignorance select "Desktop Email Application" when in fact they have internet based email. There is no apparent way to go back and reset this preference.
    Does anyone know where this preference is stored and how to change it?
    Alternatively, does anyone know how to generate the XML file by an alternate method that could be saved and then attached to an email?
    This has been a major problem that has prevented the use of this form, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    This setting is handled by your Operating System.  On Winddows (Win7) you go to Control Panel->Programs->Default Programs->Set Default Programs.  On OS X you set this using the preferences of you email client.  For example launch Mail and go to Mail->Preferences->General.  The first setting is for default email client.
    Hope this helps.
