HT204053 How do I change my I Cloud ID as my primary ID?

I cannot change my primary ID on my Macbook Air for Cloud.  My email has changed and I need to change Cloud.

To change your iCloud ID on your Mac, go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you only renamed your ID and didn't create an entirely new ID, you can choose Delete at all of the prompts after signing out.  Your iCloud data will be removed from your Mac but will reappear when you sign back in with the changed ID after a brief delay as it downloads.

    how do i change my i cloud e-mail address?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    If youi have already done that and are wanting to replicate the change on your iOS device:
    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")
    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.

  • HT204053 I need to change my i cloud e-mail address to the same one I set up when I purchased my apple account I just created an I cloud address and when Ijust read the set up for I cloud it says  I should use the same e-mail address that I started with H

    I did not know that when I created a e-mail address that I was suppose to use the same one that I created when I first signed up with Apple I phone. I want to change my e-mail address to the one I first had How can I change it? I do not need two e-mail accounts It should have read that when you are setting up an e-mail address use the one that you first signed up with. Not after you go through all the set ups for I cloud it tells you at the end to use your account that you first started with. Can you please help me I am new at this and I still can not set up on my computer with my phone to I cloud so if I had my phone stollen I can find it I also have and I pad to set up yet It is 3 days and I still can not set it up
    Thank You and Hoplefully I can change my e-mail address so I can have everything on one account

    If you selected open a new Apple ID account, go back a step and enter use existing Apple ID.
    You will have to set up a separate iCloud account or your iPads will mirror each other.

  • How can I change my Creative Cloud order to new, cheaper offer?

    I just bought a Creative Cloud membership two months ago, and now suddenly I could get it almost half prise. It's awfully bad to pay almost 300€ just because I was a early bird, and still suffering the same hick-ups as the new members.
    I have pretty new Production Premium CS5 paggage, and I could have lived with it, unless my new way of working different offices during the week.
    How can I change my Creative Coud order to new, cheaper one (36,89€/m) without penalty of the rest of the year?

    Hi katrikuu
    I noticed you had an educational version of Production Premium CS5 registered.  Unfortunately, the offer pricing is not available to Education, OEM or volume licensing customers as per the terms of the offer: https://creative.adobe.com/plans
    If you have other Creative Suite software that may qualify, please let me know.
    Kind regards

  • How do i change my i cloud e mail address

    how can I change/edit my I cloud address

    Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change the 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, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
    More information on aliases here:

  • HT204053 how do i change the apple ID on iTunes match.....

    I am having terrible problems with duplicates on Itunes plus problems with syncing with Icloud. Realised that rather than adding my icloud apple id to Itunes match, I have added my original ID which I use for purchases. Ideally would like to bring these together under one account but to solve this initial problem I think changing my Itunes Match ID will help! Please can someone let me know how I can change the ID?
    Look forward to finding someone who can help me...!

    You can change your apple id at appleid.apple.com to a different, non-apple id email.
    But for what your after, this wont help.  You can't transfer purchases from one apple id to another.  You may just have to purchase it again on the right id.  You could try for a refund at expresslane.apple.com but doubt you'll get it.

  • HT204053 how do i change my icloud email address from the one i already have input?

    how do i change my icloud email address from the one i already have input?

    Hi sparkie,
    You cannot change your iCloud email address. It is an @me.com address, and is associated specifically with that iCloud account. If you want a different @me address assigned, you have to delete the current iCloud account and set up a new one.
    Here is a link with all the support information for iCloud:

    Hope this helps!

  • HT204053 how do I change email address on icloud for my phone?  somehow I have another email address on my laptop and want them to be the same plus I don't know the old/phone password

    How do I change the email associated with Icloud on my phone.  It's not my mail apple id, its and old one and I don't know the password anymore.  I have another apple ID associated with my ipad and laptop and the icloud works great with that.  I just did the new iphone update and now its constantly asking for the icloud/apple id - the one I don't even know the password for anymore and it keeps popping up all the time. 

    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • HT201559 How can I change an i cloud account on a phone?

    We just upgraded three phones to iPhones 5c's. My husband did not have an iPhone previously so I logged in to his new phone with my iCloud account and now I wand to set him up with his own so how do I change it?

    If you bother to read the document I have linked above you will find specific instructions ,which is why I provided the link!
    and yes it will wipe the iPhone clean .Back it up first despite having the same Apple id it should be named something different to the other iPhones
    as in Bob'5c verses yours which hopefully is something different
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support

  • HT204053 How do I change the appleID associated with my icloud on my phone.  It has an old appleid and I can't change it?

    How do you change an old apple ID that is being used in Icloud on your Iphone?

    Hi,
    First Call customer service, or go to an apple store, they have a process to determine you actually own the account and are not someone trying to steal it.  Do you still have access to your email address?  If not, you need to talk with them and hopefully you set up a security question.  If you did great! They will ask you that, as well as a few basic q's they have.  If you are the owner, they can and will be glad to help.
    Best of luck
