How to get iPad to recognize my new email address and password?

I have two gmail accounts. One was being used with the iPad and the other with my Apple/iTunes account. In an effort to simply matters, I decide to use only one for both/all Apple encounters. I got the click here to confirm email and did as instructed...it seems to be working fine with my laptop and when my iPad is connect to that laptop while using iTunes. However if I try and use just the iPad to do something like upgrade my apps "it" asks for my pw and it is still showing the old email address and won't accept the pw.
I'm at my wits end and my wit isn't all that long anymore so, as you can see, the end is near! Aplogies if this has been asked and answered, but searching was useless.
TIA for your help pointing me in the right direction!

I got a Gmail that said I had to confirm that I was the one that made the request, etc. It said, in part...
Wondering why you got this email?
It's sent when someone adds or changes a contact email address for an Apple ID account. If you didn't do this, don't worry. Your email address cannot be used as a contact address for an Apple ID without your verification.
And the link that said "Verify Now"...
So I did.

  • I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which not longer exists and I don't know the password.  HOw can I get them authorized to my new email address and password?

    I cannot play some songs on itunes, I get a prompt for an old email address which no longer exists and I don't remember the password.  How can I get these tunes transferred to my new email address and password?

    In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
    I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
    In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
    Thanks for your help.

    There is no way for anyone on this forum to assist you.  Apple will also not assist you.  If you purchased the device thru ebay, file a claim.  If you purchased it some other way, I'm sorry.  there is nothing anyone can do to help you.

  • How do I stop my sign- in information (email address and password) from appearing when I open gmail?

    This is a work computer and I am leaving shortly. Whenever I open gmail in bookmarks, my email address and password are already in their boxes. Obviously, the new guy, or anyone for that matter, can easily access my account. I need to delete the info. Signing out does not work as it just reappears each time I sign in. Neither does selecting and deleting the info.

    This is happening because Firefox has been configured to remember your usernames and passwords for the sites that you visit. To remove this data, see the instructions in this article: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Remembering%20passwords#w_viewing-and-deleting-passwords Viewing and deleting passwords].

  • How to get ipad to recognize a new Apple ID

    My ipad recognizes an old email address that I had when I bought the ipad as my user id. I changed my apple id but the ipad still brings up the little sign in box for iCloud for example or if I open an app like Facetime. It brings up the sign in box with the old email address ID. I can't get around it. It won't accept my password. How do I get the ipad to delete that old address and start recognizing my new Apple ID?

  • HT1920 I don't have the same email account as the one I originally started with, so when I try to log into the Apple store or iTunes it wants to send my password to my email.  How can I get my new email address and password?

    I would like to change my email address on my itunes account so I can get email updates.  How can I change it on my phone to correspond with my computer?And when I tried to get iheart radio on my iphone it gave me the "terms and conditions" pages but no button to "agree".  I need help.

    You can try getting the password reset via this page : http://iforgot.apple.com
    If you can't then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the password and your questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address to your account for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

  • Cannot update apps.  It keeps asking for an old email address and password and I can't seem to get rid of it.

    I have everything running fine on my laptop with my new email address and password, but after using the sync feature, it still won't update the old apps on my iPad without using the old email.

    That is how it is supposed to work. Apps and purchased content are always tied to the Apple ID that you bought it with. You will have to continue to use the old ID and password in order to update those apps.
    You can sign in and out of the accounts in Settings>Store>Apple ID as needed.

  • How on earth do I update my Apple ID to my new email address? I keep getting moved to 'change my password' sites, but I have a new email address and  need to update my Apple ID.

    How on earth do I update my Apple ID to my new email address? I keep getting moved to 'change my password' sites, but I have a new email address and  need to update my Apple. Frustrated!!

    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Create a new email address, for example  at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.

  • My original Apple ID is associated with an email address that I no longer have access to. How do I reset the system to recognize my new email address as my primary point of contact and erase the other one?

    If when you go to icloud.com and sign in with your current iCloud ID you see all your iCloud data there, you can safely sign out of the iCloud account on your Mac and choose Delete at all the prompts, then sign back in with the current ID.  This only deletes the data from your Mac, not from iCloud.  Your iCloud data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in after a brief delay as it redownloads.  If you have automatically imported your photo stream photos to your iPhoto library you won't lose them either (if you haven't, save them to your library first).
    Again, only do this if when you go to icloud.com with your current ID you see your iCloud data there.

  • HT5622 I own three Apple devices, but my iPad remained associated with my old email address and password. How can I register it with the same new email and password?

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

  • I have a new email address and was successful in changing that information on line but my phone and iPad does not recognize the new address and I cannot update anything. It also does not accept the password associated with the old email address/Apple ID

    I have a new email address and was successful in changing the information online but cannot change it on my iPhone 4S or iPad. When I try to fix the problem it requires me to create a new password and now I can't remember that either.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going 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 iDevice 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.  When finished 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.

  • I have a new email address and updated it with my apple id/icloud and updated on my iPhone, but i'm getting a pop up to enter my password with my old email address listed for iCloud/Apple id.

    I have a new email address and updated my apple id/icloud  with the new address. I updated on my iPhone, but i'm keep getting a pop up to enter my password with my old email address listed for iCloud/Apple id.  How do I get it to go away?

    Did you create a NEW Apple ID or did you change the email address for your OLD Apple ID? This will affect how you update apps in the future.
    Anyway, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores, log out, then log in with the new ID.
