HT204053 is it possible to change your account to a new icloud ID?

Is it possible to change your name in [email protected] and transfer your account space and material saved from the old account to the new one?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately it's not possible to change that address and if you create a new account you can't transfer your existing content.
if you don't like the email address you have created, you might create an alias and use that instead.

  • How do you change your account to reflect moving from Canada to the United States?

    Hi there!  Merry Christmas!
    Just wondering how you can update and iTunes account with new credit card information from an American bank when my account doesn't allow me to change my country to the United States.  I moved from Canada and have an outstanding bill that I can't pay iTunes with b/c my credit card there has been closed.
    Any suggestions?

    Because of copyright restrictions by publishers, it is not possible to change your account from one country to another. Your best chance is contacting iTunes Store customer support.

  • HT204053 i want to change an existing icloud account to a new icloud account?

    I want to change an existing icloud account to a new icloud account

    If you want to create a new iCloud account and migrate your data to the new account, you'll have to delete the existing account, create the new account with a new ID, and then migrate your data to the new account.
    Before doing this, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them.  To do this, open the my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.

  • HT204053 I have changed my apple ID, but the account info on iCloud is still showing my old ID. How do I change the account name/ID for iCloud?

    I have changed my Apple ID but the account info on iCloud is still referencing the old ID. How do I change the iCloud account details?

    If you simply renamed your ID, you can go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account.  This will delete the account from your phone (but not from iCloud) as well as any synced data.  But provided you are signing back into the same account (just with a new name) it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.  Then set up your iCloud account with the new ID name and turn syncing back on.  If you have photos in your photo stream album that are older than 30 days that you don't have anywhere else, you will need to save these to your camera roll before deleting the account. To do this, open your photo stream album on your iPhone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos to select them, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    If, however, you are changing to a new ID you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account.  To do this, first go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPhone.  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (Be sure to save any photo stream photos to your camera roll prior to deleting the account, as mentioned above.)  Next, set up a new iCloud account using your new ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.

  • Is it possible to change your iPhone IMEI easily?

    http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=657
    As I understand it´s possible to change on older as iPhone3 and iPhone3G, but still no one has succeeded to accomplish this om iPhone4...am i right?
    I work att a large phonecompany and are interested how it works in thoses cases we block IMEI.
    / Anki

    Hey Dave, you have understood me right. Thank you
    My purpose is not for personal gain to change IMEI. We operators feel that the iPhone is very attractive for fraudsters to get quick money and it encourages fraud. The only way to make it unattractive to purchase the iPhone via private web sales and advertisements of all kinds is to block the IMEI. It is difficult to obtain information on the web whether it is possible to modify an iPhone's IMEI. As I understand it in the link I attached earlier it seemed easy to accomplish this change. My colleague said that apparently a change of IMEI has succeeded on the iPhone 3G and 3G, but not yet on the 4G.
    I'm not interested in how to do it but just the possibility whether it is possible or not?
    It's just that it feels pointless to block the IMEI if it still can be changed so easily.
    Hope I was clearer now and that someone has an answer on my reflection.
    Regards Anki Sweden

  • TS3988 I changed my account information but my iCloud email did not change and it will not let me change it on my ipad or phone

    I changed my email and password on my apple account. But iCloud won't change the information and will not allow me to make the change

    To change the iCloud ID on your iOS devices, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save these to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).

    How do I change it??

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    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.

  • Is it possible to change IMessage accounts without changing Apple ID accounts?, How do I change IMessage accounts without changing Apple ID accounts?

    My family and I have been sharing the same Apple account for awhile now to share apps, contacts Etc.  That's great and all, but because we share the same account on multiple devices, whenever we use iMessage, all replies show up on all devices.  I wanted to keep the Apple ID, so I changed the iCloud account to mine, but when I messaged a friend, but it still popped up on everyone's device.  Is there anyway I can fix this?

    Use a free email address (gmail.com?) on each device.
