I have new Apple ID but it keeps requesting my old email address & password

But what are you trying to do with your new Apple ID? All purchases are forever tied to the Apple ID that the purchase was made with.

Log out of the old ID, then login using the new one with the correct pw.

HT204053 I changed my Apple ID a year ago when my old email address ceased. Now I can use my Apple ID, BUT when I tried to set up I-Cloud, my MacAir identifies me by the OLD ID, which means I can't proceed?

I changed my Apple ID a year ago when my old email address ceased. Now I can use my Apple ID ok, BUT when I tried to set up I-Cloud, my MacAir identifies me by the OLD ID, which means I can't proceed? I want to connect my MacAir and my Imac.

An addition, not a reply.
The problem is that my MacAir SYSTEM PREFERENCES somehow has NOT registered that I changed my Apple ID a year ago, ALTHOUGH I have been using the new one regularly on the same computer!!!
SO, when I go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES to try to sync my two devices, the MacAir will not allow me to use my current Apple ID.
The difficulties with using the old ID are:
1 The email address no longer exists!
2 I forget the password (obviously the prompt is no help since the email address is defunct! )
So, it seems I am in a perpetual loop.

Any suggestions please?

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new Apple ID.
Apple ID security issues -
Call Apple Care and ask for the Account Security Team. They can assist you with your issue of recovering the old Apple ID.

HT5621 I changed my AppleID, but iCloud still has the old email address on my phone. How do I change that?

I changed my AppleID, but iCloud still has the old email address on my phone. How do I change that? It keeps asking me to input my password, but obviously that won't work because the ID is wrong not the password.

Then change your Apple ID back to the old ID, then delete the account. Once done, change your ID to your new one.

HT204053 I have two apple ID's. One is an old one I no longer wish to use, but it is the one associated with my iPhone. How do I change to my newer apple ID on my iPhone?

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")
If you have used your old ID to purchase content from iTunes or the App store, you may want to continue to use this ID for iTunes only to avoid losing your content.

HT204053 I have an apple id but how do I get one for icloud?

I am trying to use photo stream and have an apple id but it just tells me it doesn't work for icloud, but doens't say how to get one.

Make sure you are checking the primary email address for the Apple ID you are using for your iCloud account. If you are and it still isn't there, try resending it by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address.

HT1918 My father has a new email address, whenever we try to sign into his apple account, it comes up with his old email address and asking for his password, I created a new account with his new email address, however I cannot download the eprint app.

My dad's email has changed, he cannot remember his password under his old itunes email account. Whenever he tries to download apps on his new iphone with his new email address, it is asking for his password for his "old email" account. We created a new itunes account with his new email address, but whenever we try to install an app, it keeps asking for his password and shows his old email address. What is the best way to solve this problem?

Hi Vivian Zollman,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I'm not sure if you are referring to your Apple ID or just your email account in the Mail app. So, I've included all of the articles that may be relevant for you.
iOS: Setting up an email account
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4810
If you already have an email account set up and you want to modify its settings, tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, tap the name of your account, and then your email address. Then tap any information you want to adjust.

Apparently I have 2 apple IDs. The first is my former email address. I want consolidate them using my current email. I can't remember my old password. I can't do a reset bcz. it sends the link to my former email. Security Qs like d.o.b. don't "match." SoS

Apparently I have 2 apple IDs, but not on purpose. The first is my former email address used for my iPod Touch. When I later purchased an iPad2, I thought I updated my Apple ID using my new email and new married name. Apparently I created a second. I want to consolidate them using my current email, etc. But I can't remember my old password. I can't do a password reset bcz. it sends the link to my former/deactivated email. Security Qs like d.o.b. don't "match." So, when I use my iPod & it requires my password to carry out certain functions, I'm stuck. Please help! Thx

No.
I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

I need to find out how to re-set icloud id on my iphone. I already had an apple id which is a family id. I used it as my id when setting up my new company phone. I have new apple id but can't change icloud phone. Still recognizes old id.

I have a new company iphone. When setting it up I used a current "family" apple id I created for the children's itouch's. I realized after the fact that all of their contact/content dat is syncing to my business phone. I created a new apple id for the phone,logged out of the old id and in with the new on my phone. However, it will not allow me to make this same change for icloud on the phone. The icloud is still associated to the old id. How can I change my phone icloud to sync with my new apple id and stop getting the kids content?

I have an Apple ID that I use for itunes. I am trying to set up my icloud account. I have gone thru the steps to "set up" the icloud account. It only has me download the icloud control panel, then I'm supposed to sign into icloud, but then it tells me that I don't have an icloud account. I have looked all over the support area and it doesn't tell me how to get passed this problem. Any suggestions?
