I bought an I pad Air. And I want to change my Apple account from using credit card to free what can I do guys?

Guys I just want to convert my Apple account from using Credit card to None but I cant. Help me please

If you don't have a None option in the payment methods in your account info, then the only way to remove bank card information is to redeem an iTunes Gift Card.

HT5621 Me and my daughter are using the same Apple id and we share the same iCloud account. I want to change her Apple id so that she will have her own icliid account and I will have mine. how do I do it?

Me and my daughter are using the same Apple id and we share the same iCloud account. I want to change her Apple id so that she will have her own icloud account and I will have mine.
1. how do I do it?
2. how do I transfer her stuff which is in my icloud storage to her new icloud account once this one is created?
thanks,
Ari

To migrate her device to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos she wants to keep to her amera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If she is syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of the notes and email them to her so she can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in her new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
Once you are on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com from a computer and delete the other person's data from your account.

Hi I want to change my Apple ID email as I can no longer access my old email account. I try to change it to my new email but it says I'm already using it as my 'rescue email' so how do I remove or change my rescue email so that I can use it as my primary?

I wanted to change my apple id display in my ipad screento my new account created

I wanted to change my apple id displayed on screen to my new apple id created because if i want to use the apps to purchase will not accept anymore my old apple id it always say wrong apple id or password...please do the needful as i want to use it for some purchases....as well as my icloud id....

If your apple id and passowrd is incorrect, it's better to sort it out.
Creating a new Apple ID will make all your previous content purchases useless (not be able to update).

I want to change my Apple ID on my device to my new ID but the device would not allow me to do that! how do I?

I have acquired a used iPhone. I want to set it up as my own. I want to change my Apple ID in the iCloud Settings og the phone to include my new ID but the iPhone is stuck on the previous one even though the phone has been dereigistered fom the old users account and I have reset an Apple ID on the site and on my phone. How do I change the Apple ID on the iCloud settings on the phone so that I register the phone on iCloud under my own account?

The previous user was supposed to erase the phone and remove it from their account, as explained here under "If the device has not been erased": http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515. Contact the previous owner and have them perform these steps.

I have a 17" Mac Book Pro and a 13" Mac Book Pro...both use the same Apple ID. My wife now wants to change the Apple ID on the 13" to her Apple ID. How do I do this and not loose the information on that computer?

Hello Teddy53149 and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
Follow this procedure:

As they recommend and as always when you're messing with administrator accounts back everything up first.

I have moved from the US to Norway, and want to change my apple ID to the Norwegian appstore. However, I am not allowed ot change from the US store before I use up my balance, which is 0.17 dollar. The problem is that nothing costs 0.17 dollar.Please help

I have moved from the US to Norway, and want to change my apple ID to the Norwegian appstore. However, I am not allowed ot change from the US store before I use up my balance, which is 0.17 dollar. The problem is that nothing costs 0.17 dollar and I do no longer have an american visa card, only Norwegian. Is there any way I can erase the credit on my account so I can change the appstore country? Or osmething I can use this credit on? Thank you very much

Try contacting the store support staff at: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html they are usually pretty good at sorting out these issues.

I want to change my apple id becouse of change email adres. Now i can use or update y apps?

I have a new a mail adres. Now i want to change my apple id tot this adres. This is possibel on the site (thanks apple) but all my apps on the i pad still use the former apple id/email adres. Zo cannot use the or update them. It seems i am stuck with the old email adres forever
Helpppp me please, thx

That is not the problem. I do not have a new apple id. I just changed the name of it because my email adres will expire. On the apple site <see your link> is explained how. This works fine on the site, i can log on and off with the new email adres.
But....all the apps on my i pad still contain the old apple id. And....it is not possibel to log on with this account becaue is has been changed :-)
So is seems that the only way a can use apps on my present and future ipad is tot use the same appe id forever...witch is not possible because companies change and so do e-mail-adresses.
Why does apple use email adresses as an id instead of an real id or an apple id

I want to change my Apple ID email but it won't let me.

The original email I put as my Apple ID has been deavtivaed because I haven't used it in a while, so I want to change my Apple ID email to my current email. However, when I go online to change it, it tells me "this email address is already verified for another Apple ID". I don't recall making an Apple ID on this new email, but I'm guessing I created without realizing it. Is there any way I can delete the Apple ID on my new email and then change it? Or can I merge the two IDs?

Ok I'm goin to call your old Apple ID #1 your new email you want to use #2 and another email #3.
- go to http://appleid.apple.com
- select manage your apple id
- sign into #2
- edit primary email and change it to #3
- save changes and sign out
Now
- sign into #1
- edit primary
- change it to the email that was used for #2
- save changes
- check #2's email inbox for verification email
- verify account
If done correctly you should be fine, also in terms of #3 that would be an email you have that you dont mind being an apple id that you wont use. Sorry for the funny way of explaining just thought it would be shorter to type out lol.
Note: Once changes have been made you must sign out of features such as iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, iTunes & App Store as they will still display the old Apple ID. Sign in with new email but same password as normal.

Need help with what to do if I want to change my apple id but my id is my icloud e-mail address

Hello,
I have spent days and hours trying to find a definite answer on what I can do with my situation. I have been able to figure out that I cannot change my apple id because my apple id is my icloud e-mail address. But does that leave me no option? Does that mean that I will have to create a new apple id and subsequently I will also get a new icloud e-mail address? If so, then how will I retain all of my purchases? Is it possible to delete my icloud account and then change my apple id?
I would really appreciate anyone that can give me a clear answer on this. Thanks!!

Sorry I missed this post earlier. For some reason I didn't get an email alert that you had posted.
If you want to want to change your Apple ID and your iCloud email address, you'll need to create a new Apple ID using the name you want, then create a new iCloud account with it and migrate your data to the new account. After creating your new Apple ID, save any photo stream photos on your iOS device that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Then sign back in with a new Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data to the new account. You will then have to recreate your notes in the new account from the emails you sent earlier. When you turn on Mail in Settings>iCloud you will choose your new @icloud.com email address.
Once this is done on the first device, if you have other devices, you can just save any photo strema photos, delete the existing account, then choose Delete from My iDevice (since the data is already in the new account) and sign back in with the new ID to download the data.
You'll then have to decide if you want to keep using the old ID for iTunes or not. Personally, I wouldn't recommend changing it to a new ID for several reasons. First, all of your current purchased media is tied to the current ID and cannot be moved to your new ID. This means that you will end up with different things purchased with different IDs over time, which can make things complicated. Secondly, if you have already enabled automatic downloads, or have downloaded previous purchased using your old ID, you cannot change it to your new ID for 90 days from the time you first did this. Once this waiting period expires you can then change to the new ID and access previous purchases with your new ID, but you would not be able to access previous purchased from the old ID again for another 90 days. (This is what I mean by it being complicated to have multiple Apple IDs for iTunes purchases.)

I want to change my apple id password but I forgot the security questions please help me some using my icloud I'd and if confirmation is must so please phone number is mine please send a code please help me my apple

Welcome to the Apple community.
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, 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.

HT1918 I want to change my Apple ID to what I have as my rescue ID. The system will not let me.Is there a way to do this?

I want to change my Apple ID to what I have as my rescue ID. The system will not let me.Is there a way to do this?

You'll need to change/remove your rescue email address first :
   1.    Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
    2.    Click "Manage your account"
    3.    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    4.    Click Password & Security
    5.    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    6.    After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
    7.    Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.

I want to change my iCloud account. Buying iPad we gave a virtual (forwarding) email addr. We need to change to a real address. But when we try to change the iCloud account, we can only change the password. Note: we don't have Mac, only iPad and Windows.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
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.
