How to change apple id used with messages

I previously was linked to my moms apple id account and so all of our apple devices are linked. I recently created my own apple id to make our devices separate in apps like messages, iTunes, and iCloud. any help on how to make these completely separate is much appreciated.

Hey ther Wienerle,
It sounds like you need to sign out of the Apple ID in the various services that is is signed into on your phone so you can use yours instead. You can go to your Settings on your phone and sign out of these services that use an Apple ID.
Where can I use my Apple ID?
App Store
FaceTime
Find My Friends
Find My iPhone
Game Center
iBooks Store
iCloud
iMessage
iTunes Home Sharing
iTunes Match
iTunes Radio
iTunes Store
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Regards,
Sterling

How to change apple I'd with out losing all apps

Help would be appreciated:)

If you mean create a new ID, you will have to continue to use the old ID for updating existing apps. There is no way to merge accounts.

How to change apple id using the same email address

I've had the same apple id for many years, lets just say billybob. With that it's associated with my email address say [email protected] When I upgraded to IoS 5 and tried to use iCloud, it says that my appleid must be in the form of an email address. So I went in to the apple id website to change my apple id to [email protected] and it says I can't because it's already associated with another account (my own). Is there any way around this? I'd prefer not to have to create some phantom email address that is only applicable to iCloud.

Please follow the commands in http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40. I would recommend logging out of your AppleID on all devices then make the change on one device and then re-login on all the other devices.

How can u format the hard drive since I am using the MBA. Formatting will delete also the recovery space and how to start with new installation? This is not going to work.
No, that's not true. This is one of the 'benefits' of Lion (if you want to see it that way). The OS is on a separate partition and you can reinstall the OS without another physical drive.
What you do is reboot the computer while holding down the 'option' key. From the list of disks that show up (you can release the 'option' key now), choose 'Recovery HD'.
When you get to what looks like a Desktop, choose 'Reinstall OS X Lion'. Shortly after this, you will get asked for your Apple ID. Put your own Apple ID in the box and everything should proceed smoothly from there.

How to change apple id on iPhone. Wife and I have same apple ID. Get each others iMessages. want to put her on another cloud with different id.

How to change apple id on iPhone? Wife and I have same apple ID which causes me to get her iMessages instead of her. I also get all her pics on my phone and I don't want them. We need to change her apple ID without causing my ID and cloud to be closed.

Have her create a new ID.   Here: https://appleid.apple.com/
Have her log out of iMessage/Facetime/iCloud on her device.   Now have her use the new ID she has created.
That should keep the 2 of you separated, except for iTunes purchases.   You can share that ID in a family up to 5 devices.

Settings > iTunes and App Stores > tap on the Apple ID that is displayed then sign out.
Then sign in with the apple ID you want to use.
Keep in mind all purchased items will remain associated with the Apple ID that was used to purchase them. If you are not signed in to that Apple ID when trying to update an app you will be asked for that Apple ID and password.

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then you can use that to reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT6170
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps on this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620
Or, if it's available in your country, you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

How to change apple id in iCloud on iPhone

How to change apple id in iCloud

If the old ID is your ID, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. 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 to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

How to change Apple ID Password IF...

How to change Apple ID Password IF I forgot:
- The answers to Security Questions (it may sounds silly but I don't even remember making Security Questions).
and
- Don't have access anymore to the Rescue Address (I used my very old email which is no longer active).
So is there any way I could change my Password?
And now I want to change my Security Questions and my Rescue Address as well.
Hope someone could come with the right solution.
Thank you very much.

Change the Apple ID or use another ID on the iPad?
If you want to sign in with another ID - go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Tap the ID that is showing in there and sign out. Sign in with the other ID.
You can also access your ID in the featured tab of the App Store, iTunes and the iBookstore at the bottom of the screen if you need to change ID's in there.

I have IMac OSX 10.9.4, 4GB,Processor 3.06 with Intell2Duo. I would like to check for Malware. I run a TechTool Pro 6 every month and that comes up great.
When check how much memory I am using, with only Safari open I am using 3.9 and more of her 4.0 memory. She is very. very slow in processing. I had 4000
trash to clean out and it took her over an hour to expel. Also for some reason Safari will not allow me to click on a link, in my G-mail, and let it go to the page.
It has a sign saying a pop-up blocker is on and will not let me do it. I must open the stamp to look at my e-mails and if I have redirected link now I can do it.
I have not changed my preferences so where is this pop-up blocker?
I have looked at preferences on Safari and Google, which I do not understand Google, and do not see where this blocker could be.
Malware is something I want to make sure is not on my computer. Tech Tool Pro 6 is all I know of and it does not detect Malware.
Help.

Is there a way to create, store and use preset messages for use with "Messages". I often have a recurrinig message to send, after a repeating event, and need to enter the same short message each time. It would be nice to have this short message stored and selectable so that I do not need to enter each time.
