  • How to sign into icloud account on iphone when icloud is showing the wrong email address?

    i can sign into my icloud account on pc and i can sign into my apple account on pc and phone, but i cannot sign into icloud on my iphone. icloud is showing the wrong email address on phone only and i don't see where to change it to the correct address.

    Not sure what it is you did. If you have your contacts saved in iCloud (you can check them by signing into your Apple/iCloud account at iCloud.com - check the Contacts there), then changing your Apple ID will have no effect on your iCloud content. Also, when you Sign Out of the iCloud account on your device, you are given the option to keep the Contacts on that device. If you select "Keep", then when you sign back on with the updated Apple/iCloud ID, it will ask you if you want to merge the contacts on your device with your iCloud account. If you select "Merge", then it merges them.
    Also, what the instructions above are having you do is change the Apple ID that the iCloud account is linked to. It is the same Apple account, you are just changing the ID itself. The iCloud account associated with that ID is not changing or being affected in any way. If you created a new Apple ID, then that is the problem. A new ID would be linked to a new/different iCloud account.
    However, either way, if you keep your contacts and then merge them even if you set up a separate ID altogether (which is not what the instructions are telling you to do), your contacts would be intact.

  • Can't add new icloud account to iPhone says that I have too many accounts please help! Forgot old username and email

    I Made a new icloud account bc forgot my username and email and now I can't access bc says I have too many accounts on phone please help!

    If the messages says the maximum number of accounts have already been created, you will not be able to create a new one on that phone.  All you can do in that case is either reuse one of the accounts previously created or create your new account on a different iOS device or Mac, if you have one.

    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Yes you can continue to use the former ID for the iTunes Store.
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

    The seller needs to follow this procedure:

    If she refuses, then as Tim suggested the iPhone is probably stolen. You'll need to contact your local police department and ask how to proceed.

  • How to restore Address Book and then add working iCloud Account?

    OK i'm going insane trying to resolve this one.... all started with a shed load of Duplicates!
    3 devices:  MacBook Pro, iMac, iPhone 4S
    I finally upgraded the MBP to 10.7.2, the iMac already was and the iPhone was already 5.0.1
    I've held off moving to iCloud from Mobile.me because of the 10.6.x MBP
    ...so now all on the same song sheet, I clicked the upgrade to iCloud from my MBA and all went well!
    The MBA pushed 1352 address cards to the iCloud and I only had the iCloud account showing in my Address Book.
    My iPhone then happily went iCloud and downloaded ALL the calendars (and I have far too many....I'll clean up soon, promise ;-)
    but i hadnt turned on Contact sync for a very good reason.
    I DON'T WANT ALL MY CONTACTS ON MY iPHONE!
    So having found some advice, it says you have to keep everything you dont want in iCloud, in the On My Mac account
    (which I didnt appear to have at that point)
    I turned my iMac on and connected to the iCloud, all went well and I again had a single iCloud account in Address Book with 1352 cards
    I then went Address Book/Preferences/General/Deafult Account/On My Mac and it generated the empty On My Mac account in the Address Book.
    Highlighting ALL my iCloud address cards and dragging them to On My Mac, a successful duplication was made.
    Highlighting ALL my iCloud address cards and deleting, all three devices now had NO contacts in the iCloud related accounts (what I wanted)
    I then turned on Contact sync on my iPhone and it pushed 186 contacts to the iCloud and in turn to all 3 devices (perfect!)
    but then came the fun part....
    On my iMac, the On My Mac account had gone from 1352 to over 1900 with loads of duplicates. So I selected ALL deleted and restored from an Address Book backup prior to going iCloud. This began my problem....
    if I restore it WIPES the iCloud account from the machine and leaves me with 1352 in On My Mac, 
    if I try and add an iCloud account it then wants to upload the 1352 into the iCloud which I dont want.
    If I delete all, setup iCloud acount first I get the 186 correctly, but the moment I restore from backup it overwrites and I'm again left with On My Mac and no iCloud account
    AHHHHHH!
    how on earth do I get the working iCloud with 186 (which is perfectly fine on 3 devices) and restore 1352 in ON MY MAC, so my iMac Address Book has two accounts very seperate from each other.   I want the 186 on my MacBook Pro and iPhone, but I want an iCloud account with 186 and an On My Mac with 1352 on the iMac
    ANY advice welcome
    TIA

    Thanks havinabubble for your assistance.  I'm having all sorts of problems with iCloud because we've got iphone 3g's which means the iCloud is working on our mac and ipads but not on our iphones.  I've been trying to solve this problem for days and I lost my "on my mac account" along the way. Once I followed your section where you gave directions how to "generate the empty On My Mac account" I was able to re-establish my contacts list on my mac.  Your suggestion was very valuable. Thank you.

    thanks to a bit of sleep and https://discussions.apple.com/message/17282476#17282476
    cheers to Winston Churchill who's post gave me the solution!
    with On My Mac selected, highlight and DRAG TO DESKTOP
    then highlight ALL and DELETE ALL
    add the iCloud account which replaces ALL contacts with the 186 from the iCloud.
    select Address Book/Preferences/General/Default Account/On My Mac and it generates the empty On My Mac account in the Address Book.
    DRAG the 1352 back into On My Mac account
    now have two accounts...
    PROBLEM SOLVED, thanks Winston!

  • HT204053 I have an iPhone 4S and when I try to add an iCloud account is gives me an error "Cannot Sign In, The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone." Is there any way to deactivate an account?

    I have an iPhone 4S and when I try to add an iCloud account is gives me an error "Cannot Sign In, The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone." Is there any way to deactivate an account? I have one for myself, one for my family and one for my work. I had all three on my iphone and then I deleted my work. I wanted to get my own person @me.com account. It wouldn't let me create it from my iphone, so I created it from my Macbook Pro. I am trying to add it to my iphone, but it keeps giving me that error. If there is a way I can deactivate my work one so I can use my @me.com personal account?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately once all the 3 iCloud accounts have been created on your mobile device, you cannot create any more regardless of what you do. You will need to re-use one of the accounts that you have already created or create your new account on another device or computer.
    You should however be able to add existing accounts to your device, are you sure you aren't trying to create on rather than simply use an existing one.

  • How can I change the email address linked to my iCloud account on iPhone 4S running iOS 7?

    How can I change the email address linked to my iCloud account for iPhone 4s?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If it's your non-iCloud mail address, start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account
    If it is your iCloud mail address you want to change, you can't.

  • Question on iCloud accts:  I have my iPhone and iPad on one account, but my Mac is set up on my old mobile me acct.  Can't figure out how to change an iCloud account number on my Mac so I can sync all three.

    Question on iCloud accounts:  I have my iPhone and iPad on one iCloud account, but my Mac is on my old Mobile me account.  Can't figure out how to change my iCloud account on my MacBook Pro so all 3 are synced.

    First, open System Preferences > MobileMe and log out. Then, open  > About this Mac and see Version. If you see 10.5.x or 10.6.x, see > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If your Mac is compatible, upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and purchase OS X Mountain Lion.
    When you have upgraded, go to System Preferences > iCloud and follow its steps

  • How do I delete my icloud account from Iphone ios 7.

    How do I delete my icloud account from Iphone 5 using ios 7. I need reinstall this because my apple ID is linked to a different email now. When I try to delete the account from my iphone it requires a password to authorise this, but the password doesn't work with old email ID. There doesn't seem to be a way of changing the old email ID on my iphone. My new Apple ID works ok on itunes etc. does anybody have a solution? Thanks Russ

    If you can't reset password - contact Apple, may be they can help you if it is your account.

  • My daughter has an iPhone and some how we share an iCloud account and she's getting all my texts and contacts. I can't find where to uncheck her phone number on my phone account. Please help

    My daughter and I both  have an iPhone and some how we share an iCloud account and she's getting all my texts and contacts. I can't find where to uncheck her phone number on my phone account so she doesn't get all my texts and contacts. Please help

    Hi Shellyk,
    Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and make sure that only your personal email addresses are listed under the individual phone number.Remove the "shared" iCloud email address.
    For the Contacts, if you are syncing them via iCloud and you both have the same iCloud account, you will both have the same Contact list.
