HT204053 i used wrong apple id at setup how can i change it now

I was restoring itouch and i used wrong apple id in icloud set up. is there a way i can change it now?

Settings>iCloud>Delete Account. Choose if you want to delete or keep the data from the wrong ID in your iPhone. If you choose "delete from iPhone" the data will not delete from iCloud server. The add a new iCloud account with the ID you want.
Maybe you want to change the Apple ID in iMessage and FaceTime to. Go to settings>messages/FaceTime  to sign out and back in with the ID you want.

  • HT204053 I changed my email address and iphoto is using my old email address. How can I change it to my new address?

    I have a new email address. I am trying to send photos from my imac using iphoto. The old email address is not active. How can I
    change it to my new email address to send iphotos?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First change it with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account
    Then change it on your 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.

  • My wife collected my online ordered iphone 6 when i was away and she entered a wrong email address as the Apple ID .How can i change it now since the IClould pops up asking for password and i can't provide it so could not even delet it .Helps !

    A wrong email address was entered at the setting up of the new iphone 6 and how can I change it ?

    The problem is she entered an email address she thought might be mine ,but actually used by someone else .She said no password was set up .My understanding is an email must have been sent to that address and he or she can set up the password and download .And now I set up an new ID under the ICloud but still the wrong email address still appear as a default one .I tried to delete the set up but I was asked for the password which we don't have .
    Any good idea ?

  • I cannot use my Apple ID to purchase, how can I do?

    I bought 2 new iPad2 these days. However, I cannot use my old Apple ID (I used it in my iPad1 and iPod Touch 3) to purchase any apps in the new iPad2. And I cannot purchase in iTunes (via my laptop) neither. Actually, I find I can only use my Apple ID to sign in and then can do nothing. What happened? Is my Apple ID locked? Why Apple locked my ID? How can I contact them directly? I am in Singapore, I called Apple 800 hotline, however, they told me that they can do nothing about iTunes Store problem and I have to contact iTune support. I changed the password, however, the problem is still the same. Anyone knows how to solve it? Thank you!

    I'm getting the same thing. I can't even sign in to see my iTunes account details in iTunes now - keeps requesting my password. Interestingly, if I type a password which I know is wrong it pops up and says I've entered the wrong password. If I enter the right one, it just pops up again requesting the password - no error.
    Tried on 2 computers and on my iPhone - on WIFI and 3g. No joy.
    Also tried resetting my password but the same thing happens, except this time it tells me I have to verify my credit card because I changed the password and then... it asks me for the password again... and again... and again... No error, just a loop!

  • When I try to update my apps the wrong apple ID shows up how do I change it

    I am trying to update my apps and the wrong apple ID username comes up for a password . How do I change it to be mine?

    Go into the Settings app and select Store. The account displayed should be the one you are being prompted to supply the password for. You can press that button and it should give you the option to sign out of that account. Once you do that you will be able sign in with another account or create a new one. As noted by the previous poster, changing accounts will not change the ownership of the apps already purchased.

  • I input the wrong Apple ID for Icloud. how do I change the ID?

    I set-up my daughters icloud and input the wrong Apple ID. How do I change this? When I try it is greyed out and will not allow me to access it.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Youll need to delete the account from the device and then change the ID before entering the details again.

  • After I've set-up my iOS device with an Apple ID for iCloud, how can I change the iCloud Apple ID?

       After updating my iPad 2 & iPhone 4 to iOS 5, I set-up each one for iCloud, but inadvertently used 2 different Apple ID's (one me.com and one that I typically use for Apple purchases).  I realize this will prevent the two devices from syncing.  When I try to change the iCloud Apple ID, it is grayed out, and I can't find any way to re-set it on my iPad.  Does anyone know how to re-set this ID so both devices are operating on the same ID?
      I have a second question (though not as pressing as the first).  I'd like to use my me.com ID to sync calendars, contacts, etc., but another ID to sync my Apple purchases (apps, etc.).  This way my wife and I could share apps, but each sync our iPhones and iPads to our own content.  Does anyone know if this type of dual-ID set-up is possible on one device?
       I know there's a lot of confusion out there, but I'm trying to keep in mind that this is a huge upgrade and transition for Apple, so it will all work out, and should be fantastic when it does.  It'll just take a little time to sort out.  Thanks for any suggestions!  -Bob-

    Hi Jeremy,
        That is my understanding.  Clicking "Delete Account" is similar to logging out of iCloud with that account. 
       But your situation is different from mine, as I had been using my @me.com account for "Find My iPhone" only.  I ended up using my @me.com account for iCloud and another account for my Apple iTunes Store purchases.
       That's correct--it will not delete your purchases.  You can still back-up to your Mac with iTunes using the same account you used to purchase your Apple stuff.  -Bob-

  • I'm in several linkedin groups, all which send mail using the same email address. How can I change the Name of the sender to reflect individual groups?

    The email address used to send emails is "[email protected]" But I'm in at least five different groups. How can I set up Thunderbird to differentiate between them?

    you can't really, but you might be able to filter them by message content into folders for each, or color them with tags

  • HT204053 i use one apple id for icloud and one for itunes  and now it wont let me since i reset my phone now  i up graded to iphone 4s still the same problem

    please help me fix this problem I have one id  for icloud and one for itunes that i share with my husband

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going 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, 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 iPhone 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.

  • HT1918 I am in Australia but my Apple ID says US, how can I change this?

    I need to change my country to add a credit card to my account and edit my shipping address

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Click on your account name in the top right corner of the iTunes store in the iTunes application on your computer, enter your password and click the "view account" button. Navigate to the Apple ID summary where you have the option to "change country or region".
    In order to change your location, you will need a credit card registered to an address in the location you are trying to change to.
    You cannot change your location if you have credit on your account, if you are unable to spend your credit and leave a balance of zero, contact Apple, which you can do through iTunes Store Support.

  • I don't seem to be able to activate the Never Remember History in Privacy. It is set to Use Custom Settings, I change it to Never Remember History but whenever I open up options, it has reverted to Never remember history. How can I change it? Thank you

    At the moment my privacy settings are Use Custom Settings in Private Browsing mode with no third party cookies. Recently however when I log out of hotmail the msn homepage comes up. So I decided to change to never remember history settings. However, whenever I change it, it always reverts back to Use Custom Settings. Why and how can I change it?
    Thank you

    Firefox shows the "Use custom settings for history" setting as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made.
    If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".
    You enter Private Browsing mode if you select:
    * Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history" > [X] "Always use private browsing mode"

  • The aps store has an old email address as part of my apple I'd.. How can I change that?

    I have changed my apple I'd on my desktop, but cant get it changed on my ipad2 when I'm in iTunes or the aps store.
    It shows my old email address as the first part of my apple I'd. How can I change that?

    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap the ID and sign out, then sign in with the correct account. If that doesn't work, sign out of the account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
