If you are wishing to change your @me address, this cannot be done, however if you wish to change another address;
You need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.

  • HT204053 how do i change and activate my icloud email address

    How can i change my icloud email address and also do i have to activate it as i have never recieved any mail on it ??????
    Does it have to be an @me.com account

    Unfortunately you cannot change an @me.com address. Each account will require verification, if you have not yet verified your account:
    Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether.

  • HT201342 how do you change your (mac/me/icloud) email address

    how do you change your (mac/me/icloud) email address

    You cannot change an iCloud email address unless you create a new iCloud account.  You can, however, create an email alias, which is an alternate email address that will receive incoming email in your existing iCloud email inbox.  To do this, see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.  Just keep in mind that once you creat an alias, you can't later use this to create a new iCloud account or move it to another account, even if you delete the alias.

  • Can I change my actual (main) iCloud email address, and if so how?

    Can I change my actual (main) iCloud email address, and if so how?

    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.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.
    More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

    Rip the CDs with another program on your computer, and add the resulting MP3s to your iTunes library.  (If you use Windows Media Player for this purpose, make sure the Rip Setting is on MP3, or else it will default to a useless format known as WMA.)

  • 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.

  • HT204053 how do i change my i cloud e-mail address

    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.

  • How do I get possession of an iCloud email address?

    At some point in the not too distant past, I remember having to create an iCloud email address.  It will be associated with my apple ID, but I cant use it.  I know noone else has it because the email server gives a bounceback.
    How do I get in touch with Apple?  I'm not stupid, and they seem to have made it as diffucult as possible.

    Ah that was it: MobileMe
    That's what your problem is: you had a MobileMe account with the address [email protected] but presumably failed to migrate it before last August.
    If you sign in with that address at System Preference>iCloud and check Mail there you can reactivate it and you will get an @icloud.com address (I'm not entirely sure whether you will actually be able to use the @me.com address as you didn't migrate earlier - you will have to check). You can't shift this address in either version to another account.

  • I'm getting married and would like to change my iCloud email address or create another one

    i'm getting married and would like to change my mobileme/icloud email address to my new name. i've tried to create alias but it keeps saying cannot save address at this time? any tips? can i have 2 icloud email addresses?

    You can change your details at the address above (you can't change your ID if it's a me address).
    You can of course create a new account at any time and add it as a secondary to your existing account or use it as a primary account and add your existing account as a secondary account.

  • HT204053 My icloud account email address is my old email address.  How do I change it to my current email address?

    my icloud account email address is my old email address.  how do I change it?

    To change the iCloud ID ("email address") you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  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, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished 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.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How do I change my Apple ID recovery email address?

    I can no longer access my apple id recovery email address because it is a corporate email address and I am no longer connected with that corporation. So, I do not see any emails from Apple relating to changes. I need to change my recovery email address to one that I can access. How can I do this?

    If you're able to supply two of your security answers, click here. If not, you cannot and need to contact Apple.
