How to reset iCloud email

How do I reset my iCloud email

What do you mean with reset? Do you mean that you want to change your primary @icloud.com email address? If yes and you would like to change it, you would have to create a completely new account.
Mac: Therefore you have to delete your currently used account from your Mac ("System preferences > iCloud > sign out"). After that you should be able to create a new one in "System Preferences > iCloud" and get a free @icloud.com email address.
iOS: Delete your account in "Settings > iCloud" and then try to create a new one.

    How to change icloud email? It wasn't me who made it. So every time I used my Apple ID is linked to that email?

    Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change that address (short of creating an entirely new account).
    However, all is not lost. You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.

  • HT4528 Need to know how to reset Icloud account.

    I need to know how to reset Icloud account.  I accidentally added my husband's phone to my Icloud account.  I need to create a nw Icloud account for my husband.  Can you direct me?

    you can't amend or reset the ilcoud account you have to delete it.  Go to setting/icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap delete and then set up a new account.  I suggest you create a backup in itunes first just in case you lose any icloud backup you may have created.  To backup in itunes read http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766

    You can't delete either the account or the email address. If you are getting messages to it you don't want to see, go to http://icloud.com and to the Mail page: click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose 'Rules'. Then set up a Rule to move all messages to your address to the Trash.

    I forget my iPhone passcode, how to reset by email?
    Thanks

    You can't. You'll need to restore the phone from backup pn the last computer the phone synced with. This will remove the passcode.

  • HT4597 How much will iCloud email cost?

    How much will iCloud email cost if all I use in my .mac email account and nothing else? My equipment doesn't support iCloud, and therefore email is all I'll be using.

    iCloud is free and comes with up to 5 GB of storage in the free package, you can purchase more storage space if you want, however for Mail only I very much doubt you will need more than 5 GB.

  • How to delete iCloud email

    How do you delete iCloud email and I have forgot the password.

    You have to provide the ID and password that were used to originally activate the device.  There is no way around this.  If it is your ID but you can't remember it, you can try to find it as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625.  If you don’t know your password you can reset the password as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.
    However, if it was previously owned by someone else, you have to get the ID and password from them, or have them erase it and remove it from their account as explaned here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515.  No one else can help you with this.

  • How to reset icloud account and password

    how to set icloud account and passwaord on my iPhone 5C, I have reset my apple id but my icloud account will not let me reset

    If yu changed the email address of your iCloud account befor you signed out of iCloud on your device, then please
    follow these steps in order to get it working properly again.
    Please change your Apple ID back to your old email address (that you used as Apple ID before) here: http://appleid.apple.com
    Then go to all your devices - iPhones, iPads, Mac etc. - ("Settings > iCloud") and delete your iCloud account from this devices (+ turn off Find My iPhone, but I guess it will ask you that anyway)

    Now, everything should working properly again.

    Hello mohsinnaveed,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you are being prompted for another user's Apple ID password, then what you are experiencing is a security feature called Activation Lock.  You will need to contact the owner of the device to unlock it.

  • How to change icloud email?

    I have loaded the operating system on my Iphone 4s and all works except my Icloud email address is wrong and it wants a password I do not have.  How do I change the icloud email or find the password?

    You can't change an iCloud email address without creating a new account.  You can, however, create an @icloud email alias address that will receive email in your current iCloud inbox.  This article explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.  If you create an alias address, it can't later be used to create a new iCloud account, nor can it be moved to another account or reactivated should you ever delete it.

  • How to change icloud email to be main apple id primary address?

    I have an apple id with a gmail address and since icloud came out I made an icloud email with the @me.com suffix which I prefer to use as my main email primary address and get rid of the gmail address being associated in my apple id. So how do I make my @me.com email to be the primary address and drop the gmail email??? I tried to change it at appleid.apple.com and it tells me my @me.com address already is a apple id. Is there a way?

    I have the same problem. There isn't anything serious, but I am a bit angry for it :-)

  • How to change iCloud email address?

    Hi,
    when my brother-in-law set up his wife's iPad he used her current e-mail address as her appleID. But once he activated iCloud (for her new iPhone) he used unintentionally his name, Peter, to create her iCloud email address. How can I delete this iCloud e-mail address and set up a new iCloud e-mail address?
