Stop using the old one and start using the new one. Notify all your friends, family, etc. of the change in email address.

  • I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

    I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • HT2623 How do I delete my icloud email address and create a new one?

    How do I delete my icloud email address and create a new one?

    You can't, except by creating a new iCloud account.  But you can create an @icloud.com email alias address to use that will receive email in your current inbox (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622).  (Note: alias addresses cannot later be used to create a new iCloud account, nor can they be moved to another account or be reactivated should you ever delete them.)

    des7931,
    You should be able to go to your software on your computer and click on the >Scanner Actions section.
    Then click on>Scan to E-Mail Wizard
    This should bring up a screen to edit, change, or delete the stored email addresses for scan to email.

  • How do I delete my old gamecenter profile and start a new one

    How do I delete my old Gamecenter profile and start a new one?

    I suggest changing the existing ID rather than creating a new one, all purchases are forever linked to the ID that bought and can never be transferred, you can change all detauils about your ID here:

  • I am trying to update my apps but my Apple id is an old one that isn't active,  How do I delete the old apple id and use the new id which is my current email address

    I am trying to update my apps and get new apps but my apple ID listed is an old inactive email address.  How do I change it to my new email address?  The new email address is in settings and is on my apple account.  The only place the old one shows up is in the apps store - installing and updating.  What do I do?

    Apps are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them whether you are using the Apple ID for new purchases or not.  All future updates will require the password for this original Apple ID.  This can't be changed.  The only way to stop this would be to delete these apps from your phone and iTunes library and repurchase them using your current ID.

  • How do you deactivate or turn off an @me email address and create a new one

    My @me email address is slammed with spam.  I get so much everyday it crowds out important emails. How do you shut off an icloud email address and create a new one? Do I need to create a new apple ID?

    You can create a new @icloud.com email address to use that will deliver email to your current inbox, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a.  Then you can set up an email rule at icloud.com to send email sent to your @me address to the trash, where it will be deleted after 30 days, or to your spam folder, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a3f8a.

  • I deleted my old email address and one of my notes disappeared.  How do I get it back?

    I deleted an old email address from my iphone5 and one of my notes from notepad disappeared.  How do I get it back?

    Hi, MissLouie.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    Some email accounts allow for note syncing.  I would recommend adding the email account back to the device and turn note syncing on.
