  • HT204053 how to change the iCloud email on iPhone 4s

    i made one for my phone and one for my sisters phone and by mistake i put a wrong email and i cant change it now can some one help me please! thanks 

      To change the icloud account that the device connects to, go to Settings>icloud, scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account.  This will delete icloud data from the device (but not from icloud itself).  then log in using a different account.

  • I have one apple ID for multiple devices in my family.  I'd like to keep it that way for itunes/app purchases.  I would like a simple step 1, step 2, step 3 response on what I need to do to separate all other features like imessage, contacts, emails, etc.

    I have one apple ID for multiple devices in my family.  I'd like to keep it that way for itunes/app purchases.  I would like a simple step 1, step 2, step 3 response on what I need to do to separate all other features like imessage, contacts, emails, etc.
    I have been reasearching how to do this on the internet, but I haven't found an easy explanation yet.  My family is going crazy over each others imessages being sent to others in the family and not being able to use FaceTime because of conflicting email addresses.  I have read that if each person gets their own iCloud account, this would work.  However, I need to know what to do after I set everyone up with their own iCloud account.  Do I make that the default email address to be contacted or can they still use their hotmail email addresses.  Any help- with easy explanation- would be much appreciated!!

    We do this in my family now.  We have one account for purchases, so it is used to share music and apps (I think that is in Settings/iTunes & App Stores).  Each iDevice has this configured.
    Then, each of us has our own iCloud account that is configured under Settings/iCloud.  That then allows us to have our own Mail/Contacts/Calendars/Reminders/Safari Bookmarks/Notes/Passbook/Photo Stream/Documents & Data/Find My iPhone/and Backup.  That Backup piece is pretty sweet and comes in handly if you replace your iDevice.  You can just restore from it.
    So we all share the Apple Store account but we all have our own iCloud accounts to keep the rest seperate or things like you mentioned are a nightmare.
    In answer to what iCloud does for you: http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/
    Think of it as an internet based ("cloud") area for all of those items listed in my response.  What you need to remember is photo stream only maintans the last 1000 pictures so don't count it as a complete backup solution for your pictures.  Even though I rarely sync with a computer these days, I do still try to sync my phone with iPhoto (I have an iMac) so that I have copies of all of my pictures.  1000 may not stretch as far as it sounds.

    Adobe Reader for iOS doesn't set the default email address when you email a PDF.
    It's found in the Settings app:
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Mail > Default Account

  • How to change the incoming email font

    Hi,
    is there anybody able to tell me how to change the incoming email font?
    I have BB bold 9900. I was able to do it with my previous curve, but not with this one.
    Thanks

    Hi muttley and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    There is no option to change the incoming mail font. You can change the entire system font by going to Options>Display>Screen Display.
    Thanks.

  • HT4528 Is there any way to change the contact email?

    Is there any way to change the contact email? I had deleted my contact email without even a thought about my Apple ID. Any suggestions?
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    Without being able to login with the Apple ID credentials, it is not possible to change the recovery email address.  This is called security and prevents others from forcibly changing your Apple ID password and taking over the account.
    Options are either remember the security answers or fix access issues with the recovery email account.

  • How to change the contact sync settings for icloud? please advise

    how to change the contact sync settings for icloud? please advise?

    There are no settings to change. Assuming you are using Lion 10.7.2 (or 10.7.3) - which you should be - you simply sign in in System Preferences>iCloud and check 'Contacts' and any other data you want to sync.
    If you are using an earlier system you will not be able to sync your contacts, and there is no workaround. However you can sync them with Google or Yahoo contacts, though I don't know how well this works.

  • I need to know how to change the identity (email address) used for the iTunes store as I no longer use that email

    I need to know how to change the identity (email address) used for the iTunes store as I no longer use that email.

    Settings > iTunes & App store.
    Tap AppleID, sign out then sign back in.
    The Apple ID is right everywhere else. I've synced the phone. I've reset it in Settings on the phone. I've changed it at Apple.
    When you write, "I've changed it at Apple, this means you updated yoru old AppleID or you ceated a new AppleID?

  • How to change an old email in ichat

    iam trying to change my old email in my ichat but i can not  change it because is asking me i need to call to my Provider to change my emaol and all my information i do not understand how i need  to fix it

    Hi,
    If you have an AIM login set up in iChat it could be in email format and in some cases actually be a working email.
    For instance Apple IDs from MobileMe are working Email and Valid AIM Screen Names
    In iChat 4, 5 and 6 if you get to the Add Account screen (iChat Preferences > Accounts use the Plus button) you can select @mac.com then hit the Get an iChat Account and get taken to the @mac.com registration page
    These look like email but are not but are Apple IDs and Valid AIM Screen Names
    You can also register any email you want at the AIM  registration page.
    On the Jabber side of iChat the Jabber IDs you can register for are in the same format as email but rarely are.
    The exception tends to be Googletalk names that are based on Googlemail names/IDs
    As Eric says you can go to iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts and highlight an account then press the minus Button to Delete it
    (Then press the add Button and add a different ID/Name)
    I have never seen any version of iChat tell me to contact my email name provider about changing it.
    It can sometimes tell you that the Name and Password are incorrect.
    Most often this happens with MobileMe and @mac.com names as they can have passwords created that are longer then the AIM servers allow.
    If this was the message shorten your Password, both at the registration/account change point and in iChat to something that has no more than 16 characters.
    Basically your question needs more info to be clearer.
    What were you trying to do ?
    What was the precise message ?  (A pic would be great.)

  • How to change my icloud email address

    I went to backup my iphone using icloud and its asking for a password to an email that was originally used to my school. I no longer go to school nor do i use that email. I cannot change the icloud email to my apple id. When i do try to delete the account it asks me for a password. I tried every password i have and I can't delete the stupid account. How do i change the email to my apple id?

    An iCloud account is also an Apple ID. It sounds like you have two different Apple ID accounts -- your iCloud account, and the Apple ID you created with your school email address. Unfortunately you cannot merge Apple ID's, but you can manage them at appleid.apple.com.
