HT1766 How do I update Apple ID in iCloud?

I have updated my email address in iTunes and apps settings but it still shows my old one on iCloud and find my phone. How do I fix this?

Yes but I can't delete my iCloud account from my phone coz it keeps asking for my password with my old email address and doesn't recognise it. Grr. It's like a catch 22.
And a heartfelt thank you to whoever reported my username as offensive. Apart from the fact that what was once a pet name for me has been found to be offensive to others (the logic there baffles me) I will gladly change it as my username to make YOU feel better. Your reporting of it has made it possible to do so without having to delete the account. :)

    How to change my appled-id in iCloud?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • HT204053 How do you change apple id for icloud if phone is already set up. Need to give each phone in my account their own apple id for icloud so that we dont receive each others messages but can still all use same id for purchases.

    How do you change apple id for icloud if phone is already set up. Need to give each phone in my account their own apple id for icloud so that we dont receive each others messages but can still all use same id for purchases.

    Settings-icloud-scroll to the bottom, select delete, if you want to keep the content select keep, otherwise it'll remove it. Then once it is done add the account information for the account you want on that phone.  Your apple ID in settings-store will remain the same and each device can still purchase/use content from that account.

  • How do I change Apple ID for iCloud account?

    I changed Apple ID online because my email address changed. How can I change Apple ID for iCloud?

    If you renamed your iCloud ID and need to change it on your device, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • HT5621 Updated Apple ID- the iCloud is still autopopulating my other ID email address and I can't change it from my iCloud, iPhone or anything.

    Updated Apple ID- the iCloud is still autopopulating my other ID email address and I can't change it from my iCloud, iPhone or anything. I've updated my Apple ID through my PC, and iTunes Store, but it will not populate and I am losing my mind. This is ridiculously frustrating

    If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  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. 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.  You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then  on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • How to update apple ID in iCloud settings

    Apple ID is greyed out, how to update apple ID in settings for iCloud on iPad mini?

    If you want to move to a new, separate iCloud account you have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account.  Deleting the account will only delete it from your phone, not from iCloud.  This will not effect other devices still using the account.  Also, you can continue to share your ID for the iTunes and App stores even though you will have a different ID for iCloud.  They do not need to be the same.
    To begin, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them.  To do this, open the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, if you have any data in either iCloud account that you no longer want (such as someone else's contacts) you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete it.

  • How are schools updating Apple Apps via app store without sharing AppleID information?

    Wondering how other schools and districts are updating Apple Apps in the Mac App Store. Initial updates were done with a institutional AppleID that is not shared with the users. Tried checking the updates via Terminal with softwareupdate -l and the results is only iTunes and not the other apple apps like Pages, iMovie, Keynote.
    Anyone have suggestions on getting the updated apps to the workstations?
    10.7 clients

    OK so I finally managed to find some time to call Apple Support on this matter.
    Apparently it is because I downloaded the apps some time ago and that these were associated with my old email.
    If they are free apps (mine were - LinkedIn, Facebook, and a couple of others), you simply delete these from your phone, then reinstall them from the Appstore on the phone - easy! To delete an app, simply hold your finger on it until it 'wiggles' then click on the X in the top left corner of the app icon. Then simply boot up appstore and download the new version.
    If you have Apps that you have paid for, then I suggest you give them a call and see what they can do for you as I didn't need to cover this off with them.
