HT1146 I have a NEW e-mail provider. I must CHANGE this on my Apple & iTunes account - need HELP !
I haved moved after 38 years in the same place.
I have changed e-mail addresses and cannot seem to get Apple to leave my OLD address alone. In trying to fix this, I have changed my password several times, and am now having a really bad time even getting into my iTunes account etc. Need some help here.
Thanks, Brian
I'm assuming OS X here based on the choice of forum, and not iOS based on the footer.
Please do not repeatedly change passwords or repeatedly fail passwords logins, or you'll risk triggering the evasion processing.
I'd expect Apple to send a confirming email message to the old email address when you manage your AppleID data over to the new email address, but the selection should otherwise remain. The mail message sent to the old address is intended to notify the user, should the account have been highjacked.
The email address is not tied to the AppleID password. Other than you'll need the password to log in and change the saved email address.
You'll have various prompts for passwords around Safari and iTunes that might remember the old OS X settings via your local Keychain, and you'll be changing those as you log in. (That's your local system applying defaults, and not anything at Apple.) You can either change those as you log in, or you can open Keychain Access and (carefully!) find and remove the old entries. (I'd strongly encourage making a backup of your keychain or of your system before deleting old Keychain entries.)
If something else is going on and you've verified the email settings are correct on your account, then you'll probably want to contact the folks at Apple directly.

Trying to erase settings from my old iphone but when I have to enter my itunes ID password the old email address is displayed. How can I change this to my existing itunes account so I can reset this phone? Thanks in advance.
I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question. Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing. I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
My playlists "ARE" in my iphone 4s. They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer.
When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes. I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes: Music, Movies, TV shows, books. That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS" but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone. Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this. I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer -

I recenly updated to IOS6. I have a couple issues after the process.
1- I lost all my calendar entries after the date I upgraded to IOS6 (all before the date were there). I created an icloud account to assure that I would not lose any going forward. Now when I enter a calendar entry, it does not appear on my icloud account. I can enter it in icloud and it will appear on my phone, but not the reverse.
2 - None of my notes transferred into icloud. I tried to manually enter one on icloud, again so I wouldn't lose this information going forward, and it appears on my iphone twice. I cannot figure out how to get the notes currently on my iphone into my icloud account.you need to do a backup of the old phone and then on your new phone restore from that backup

I have a new e-mail account so I changed my Apple ID in itunes. My ipod is still showing the old ID. How can I change it?
Go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and tap the Apple ID, select logout. Then login with your new ID
Note:
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account. -

Highly unlikely that it says any such thing.
Try telling us exactly what version of iTunes is installed and what if any messages appears when trying to update it.
