HT204053 I recently changed ny Apple ID but it did not transfer over to my iCloud account. How do I change my iCloud ID? The login popup for iCloud will not go away so I cannot get into my iPad since it pops up as soon as I turn the device on.

I recently changed my Apple ID but it did not transfer over to my iCloud account. How do I change my iCloud ID? The password for the new Apple ID does not work since the iCloud default user name is imbedded in the login box. The login popup for iCloud will not go away so I cannot get into my iPad since it pops up as soon as I turn the device on and re-occurs every few seconds.

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 iPad on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPad 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.

    You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.

    I do not know the log in details and no longer have that icloud email address !!
    please help :-(

    That's Activation Lock. You will need to remember the Apple ID and password you used to set up the phone.
    If you can't remember them, you can go to iforgot.apple.com to try to recover the information.
    If you are the original owner of the phone & have proof of purchase, you can try calling Apple to see if they can assist also.

  • I changed my Apple ID but it did not change on the I cloud how do I reset the iCloud

    How do I change the iCloud password  I did update and change my Apple ID but it did not change the iCloud?

    To change the iCloud ID 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, and your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, 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.

  • HT4061 My ipad has locked me out and there is a message on the screen saying my subscription to a film has expired. When I press 'ok' it will not go off the screen and I cannot get into my ipad?

    I'm having trouble getting into my ipad. There is message on the screen in a small box saying my subscription to a film has expired. When I press 'ok' in the small box nothing happens and I cannot use the ipad. I have tried turning it off and on but the same message is there and I cannot use the ipad. Any suggestions, please?

  • Icloud not recognizing icloud password after a system reinstall and I cannot get into my ipad 2.

    My ipad suddenly became corrupted and prompted me to go through recovery mode.  I followed the reinstall process, entered in passcodes, and allowed the reinstall for my apps to take place overnight.  However, now  the Ipad 2 does not recognize my icloud password, yet this password works on all my other devices.  The actual prompt is "Verify iCloud password: iCloud requires that you verify your password"  Help, suggestions or advice?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    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 Apple ID Support, 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.

  • I forgot my password on icloud account. how can i change my icloud account if my e-mail account has been compromised?

    i forgot my icloud and e-mail account password. is there any possible way to change my icloud account?

    Hey there apolman,
    It sounds like you want to change your iCloud email address but cannot remember the password to do so. You should be able to reset the password for your account with this article:
    iCloud: Change your iCloud password
    Change your iCloud (Apple ID) password
    Go to the My Apple ID website (appleid.apple.com) and follow the instructions to reset your Apple ID password.
    For more information, see the Apple Support article Apple ID: Changing your password.
    After changing your iCloud password, make sure you update it on all your devices and in any email apps you use to get your iCloud email.
    On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Go to Settings > iCloud, then tap your iCloud account.
    On a Mac: Open iCloud preferences.
    On a Windows computer: Open iCloud for Windows.
    In your email apps: Check the help provided for the email apps you’re using.
    If you set up iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, make sure to set up a passcode lock on your device for added security. (Go to Settings > Passcode or Touch ID & Passcode. If your device has iOS 5 or iOS 6, go to Settings > General > Passcode Lock.)
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • The latest update for ITunes will not completely update. It tells me to try manually but how do I do that?

    I'm trying to find out why the latest ITunes update will not update completely on my computer. It goes so far and then it stops with an error message saying to try installing it manually. I don't know how to do this. All other updates have been ok. This one is 11.1.
    Thank you for your help.

  • For my iCloud account, how do I change the "full name" that appears as the sender?

    On my iCloud IMAP email account, the account lists my "full name" as the sender.  How do I change this to a nickname?  Curently, that "full name" rectangle is grayed out so I don't know how to change what's there.  Thanks for your help!

    You need to change this on the iCloud website, http://icloud.com - go to the Mail page, click the cogwheel icon at top right and choose 'Preferences', then click 'Accounts' in the toolbar of the pane which opens.
    Select the main account and you can change the Full Name. If you have aliases you will have to change it separately for each of them.

  • My IPAD2 has now a little box around everything I tap.  I have tried to reset it .It is not working the same thing occurs.  I have it plugged inTo my MAC OSX and trying to back up but i am told i need to use passcode. Well I cannot get into my IPAD now.

    My IPAD has a little box around everything I tap.  I have tried to reset the IPAD 2 but to no avail.  Now I am locked out and cannot put my passcode into the Ipad2 so I cannot back up the IPAD 2 when plugged in.  It is charged ..I was reading a Foot Smart email when this occured. Help

    Sounds like you have VoiceOver (one of the accessibility features) 'on'. Try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut (or Triple-Click Home depending upon the iOS version).
    If that doesn't turn it off then you can either turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn VoiceOver 'off', or you can do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes (after typing in your passcode via the tap/double-tap process) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4064

    Hey Paulm2012,
    I see you came from the article iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode. If you haven't already, following the steps within that document should solve the issue. If you did follow along with those steps and it didn't work for you, can you tell us what happened?
