HT204053 My e-mail address has changed.  How do I update the Apple ID that is showing for my iCloud?

My e-mail address that was used for my Apple ID has changed.  I have changed my Apple ID to my new e-mail address, but how do I go about changing my iCloud to my new Apple ID?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
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")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another 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.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • How do I update the apple ID on iCloud?

    I changed the email address associated with my apple ID.  However, my old email address is still showing in iCloud.  It keeps asking for my password, but won't let me in because the ID is wrong.  How can I update the apple ID to the show the correct email address in iCloud?  I did update the email address in the users & groups under "system" on my mac, but that didn't solve the problem.
    Thanks

  • How do I find the photoshop ap that I paid for and downloaded? All I see is tutorials!!!!

    How do I find the photoshop app that I paid for and downloaded????  All I see is tutorials or ads asking me to join or download cloud or photoshop!!
    Where is my Photoshop??????

    Most browsers have a dedicated folder where they store downloaded files. Have you checked there? What OS  are you using? What browser are you using? Did you run the installer? What ads? Where do you see them? Post a screen shot for anything you have difficulty explaining. Most of the time it is easier if we can see what you see.

  • The e mail address in my I tunes setting is different but when I update my apps a different e mail address come . How can I delete the e mail address which shows for updating apps

    The e mail address which is in the setting of my I tune store does not show up when I install apps or update them it shows a different email address how can I delete the e mail which shows up while updating apps & switch to the one already in my settings

    All apps include DRM protection that is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps.
    This means the apps that need an update were downloaded with the Apple ID you are being prompted for.

  • My full name for my e-mail address has changed

    I'm not sure if this has happened after updated to Yosemite, but then I noticed a change of my full name for my gmail.com e-mail address. I attached a pic for better understanding what I mean.  I already checked my full name in my gmail account in the "Mail->Preferences->Accounts" but there was nothing wrong, my full name was shown correctly. Has anyone an idea what has happened? Do I need to contact gmail for this problem?

  • My e-mail address has changed and i-tunes still recognizes me by the old one. I can't get authorization to move songs from one computer to the next.

    When I first got started with Mac, I had a different e-mail address. I have a new e-dress and new passwords, but much of what I bought was with that old e-dress. Now, I'm trying to migrate my i-tunes library to a new computer, and I can't get authorized to move or play songs on the new computer.
    Does anyone know what to do? (A once and for all reset of Apple username and password).....
    Thnx

    Have the tracks become unchecked? iTunes will skip unchecked tracks, so if they're all unchecked, iTunes will play one and then stop. If this is indeed the case, re-checkmark the tracks - Command-click on any checkbox will select or unselect them all - and you should then have continuous playback.
    Hope this helps.

  • E-mail Address has become a blank box in the to: and from: lines.

    I was sent an e-mail by a colleague yesterday which has caused very strange behavior in Apple Mail. His e-mail address was not visible in the from: line ... instead there was a greyed out box in place of the address. Now all instances of mail from this individual - several hundred messages in mailboxes stored locally - exhibit the same issue. Where his e-mail address should be (in the to: or from: line) is a blank box. There are also problems with address auto completion. Any of the letters which would normally produce this individual's e-mail address ("t", "g" or "s"), now produce no suggestions at all. Otherwise address completion works fine.
    Any ideas anyone? I've never seen anything like this before.
    Thanks, Richard

    The Mail app on the iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch does have an option to clear previous recipients. You can learn to live with it.  But if you want to get rid of it, the only way to remove these cached email addresses from the Mail application is restoring the iPhone/iPod Touch as a new phone/iPod.  If you restore from backup, the cache is also restored.
    This article shows you the screens you will see during the restore:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • Can't change the Apple ID on my iPad for my iCloud

    On my iPad I have under the iCloud one Apple ID and for everything else on the iPad it has a different Apple ID. I can't figure out how to change the Apple ID for my iCloud. Thought?

    To change the iCloud ID you have to delete the account, provide your password, then sign back in with the ID you want to use. 
    If you are changing accounts and need to migrate your data to the new account, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.

  • How do I update the Apple ID used on my iPhone?

    I changed my Apple ID on my computer and synced my phone but I am still getting a message saying my phone can not update with iCloud.
