HT204053 Trouble syncing new AppleID/e-mail address to my iPhone

I changed my AppleID e-mail, now on my iPhone when I got to sync it asks for my password but shows the old e-mail address and I can't figure out to to update it to the new e-mail address/AppleID.  Help!

I have exactly the same problem. Presumably a solution would be to delete the original app which I was trying to update & reload using my preferred id. does this sound reasonable?

  • Outlook E-mail address format on IPhone not correctly displayed

    I have MS Outlook 2007 and am synching my Outlook contact groups to my IPhone.
    Any of the contacts e-mail's in the groups that I created look normal on the IPhone, but I copied a bunch of contacts from our Public folder contacts group into my personal Contacts group, and when I look at the contacts through Outlook the e-mail address appear fine, but when I view the contacts e-mail address from the IPhone, It shows all of the e-mail address in the full exchange mailbox directory name, not the regular e-mail address.
    Below is an example of the format they are appearing in.

    Any Help would be appreciated. I have not tried this from any version of Outlook other than 2007 yet.

    Right. Its an issue with how Outlook on an Exchange account handles email. It doesn't send the email out through the SMTP and then back in to the account. It just routes it to the address internally.
    You'll need to modify the entires with the correct email in Outlook.

  • How do I create new folders in mail on IPad and IPhone for saving emails?

    How do I create new folders in mail on IPad and IPhone for saving emails?

    You can't do it on the iPad you would need to do it on your computer and the folder will be seen by your account on the iPad and iPhone only if they are IMAP and Exchange accounts. POP accounts are not supported for folders. 

  • How to set up a new apple e-mail address when already have an existing Apple ID

    Hello
    Thank you for taking a look at my query - I have searched many posts but not found a specific answer to my question - so please help!
    My dilemma:
    I am in effect running everything smoothly - I am already on iCloud and have an @me.com mail address.
    The problem arises in that I need to change my name (due to a divorce) and hence my e-mail address -  I would like to use my maiden name for obvious reasons!
    So what have I tried?:
    I have set up a new Apple ID using a 'hotmail' address, as you need an existing address to set an ID, but would actually like a new 'apple' address. How do I do this? Since I have registered all my devices (iMac, iPad 3 and iPhone 3GS) with iCloud already using my married name ID it seems I am unable to get another appleID? Is this true? Is there a way around this?
    Concerns:
    I have many communications with lawyers and ex and various other things I would like to keep on my existing apple ID/mail account (and also itunes etc) I still need to be able to access this information. I am happy to keep this  apple ID active at the same time as having the new ID if this is possible on all the same devices? Currently however I do not know how to do this, i.e. run two mail accounts through iCloud OR ideally transfer my info to the new ID - however from reading around I believe this latter (logical) option may be impossible?
    So:
    ... I need a knight (or maiden) in  shining armour to help me understand my options, answer the Q's above and provide the steps I have to follow to do this as I am no IT guru! And as there are many similar Qs without a clear answer I'm sure you will gain lots of points!
    Thanking you kindly in advance!
    PS. Apple if you are reading this please can you do something about this situation as there seem to be many questions around this issue. Unfortunately divorce and name changes are a frequent part of life these days and it would be good if you can accommodate this!

    OK, so I realised I was still within my 90days of being able to get support from Apple due to recent iPad3 purchase.
    So between what I have gleaned from this forum and what I have learnt from the support call here I hope is a comprehensive one stop shop  answer to the question... "How do I get another Apple e-mail address ?" It's not straight forward but bear with me as you will get a result (also if anyone with IT prowess can offer further advice or clarification please do reply to this so we keep all info in the same place)... right -  we shall begin:
    First a few points to bear in mind/wise words that I wish I was aware of before:
    You preferably do not want more than one Apple ID so that syncing etc is straight forward. SO create an e-mail address that you will be happy to have no matter what, whether you are married/divorced (and yes it unfortunately could happen...) etc...
    So...
    1. First go to www.myinfo.apple.com, change your country as required and click on manage your account. Log-in. Should go straight to your Name, ID and e-mail tab.
    2. OK you are now presented with one of two scenarios....
    a) If your AppleID and primary e-mail address  is a me.com (or mac.com) then you are unlikely to have an edit option next to this line - follow point 3. Another ID has to be generated, and unfortunately (as Winston Churchill above rightly pointed out, the problem that you will have on the whole is that any purchases you make from the iTunes Store under your previous account, will be inaccessible on many of your devices. - IF however all you wanted is a new e-mail address and you are happy to keep running your old ID at the same time - there is a way around this .... read on to point 3)
    b) If your AppleID and primary e-mail address is not a me.com (or mac.com) then - follow point 4. This is the better option to have, hop skip and jump with glee as you will in effect have the same ID account and syncing will not be an issue. But note that your new ID will not be editable going forward so head my words of wisdom above.
    NB. If you already have more than one ID and one of the 'Apple ID and primary e-mail' is editable i.e. 2b) then choose this option to change as it is simpiler to manage.
    3. OK lots of steps here and explanations:
    i) You need to create another Apple ID - there are two ways of doing this a) if you go to your iphone or ipad settings > iCloud > delete your account (Don't worry you are effectively only signing out and not deleting) (you'll be given an option what to do with your contacts) > The page will then give you an option to create a new Apple ID.... follow the steps, and you will get a new me.com  AppleID and primary e-mail address.
    b) If you do not have an iphone or ipad - use your computer: Go to sytem preferences > icloud > sign out of account (again you will be given an option to keep contacts on the computer etc. do what is appropriate for you). An iCloud window  should then pop up - and there is an option to 'Create an Apple ID'... follow the steps, in 2nd step (after date of birth input)  go for the free iCloud  option and do not use an existing e-mail address (e.g. hotmail or gmail)... as it then gets more complicated (I did go down this route as I didn't know any better - so I can explain if you wish to know - just ask) - continue with the steps and you will get a new me.com AppleID and primary e-mail address.
    ii) Now assuming you have an itunes account and other devices... and you will want to sync everything across devices... then ensure you log back into your OLD account and use this as your main  account on all devices. This will keep all things synced between devices with no problems.
    iii) To get your new e-mail account active go to all your devices and computer and just add the new me.com address as another account:
    a) on iphone and ipad: settings > mail, contacts, calendars > "add account"
    b) on computer assuming you use mail: Mail>preferences>account information> hit the '+' under the left hand account box and fill in the details... You will then effectively have two mail boxes running in mail - your previous and new one. What I have noticed is that you can drag and drop (which will copy) mailboxes you created in your old account into your new account - which is great as you can keep the stored messages to hand and effectively you can taper down use of the old account (or use as you wish) over time and eventually not notice the old account is in the background.
    Hey presto you have a new e-mail address AND your devices are syncing itunes, photostream etc...
    4) So - much better option....
    i) create a new Apple ID as per point 3i) above.
    ii) go back to www.myinfo.apple.com, change your country as required and click on manage your account. Log-in with old ID. Under Apple ID and primary e-mail adress - click edit and now insert your new me.com Apple ID. This will now be both your ID and primary e-mail address. This is where my knowledge (gleaned from this Forum) stops on this option - as unfortunately it did not apply to me. But I think it will get you where you want!
    Hope all this info helps rather than hinders!! It definitely would have helped me
    Enjoy.

  • I am having trouble syncing new songs to my ipad mini.  I tunes says 151 are on the ipad yet only 120 are on the actual ipad.

    I am having trouble syncing my ipad mini with itunes.  I have done it before and no problem.  Now it lists that I have 151 songs on my ipad but there are only 120 on the actual ipad. The new playlists I tried to add are not on it.  Am I missing a step.

    That alone does not mean the movies are in an iPad compatible format either.
    Copied from this link.
    http://www.apple.com/ipad/specs/
    Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format.
    Try this. With one of these videos selected in iTunes, at the iTunes menu bar go to Advanced and select Create iPad or Apple TV version. This will duplicate the selected video in an iPad compatible version. Select this version to be transferred to your iPad to see if this makes any difference.

  • Anyway to sync all 3 Outlook mailing addresses?

    Home and Work addresses are mapped in the field mapping, but there is no room to also map the other (third) address MS Outlook allows.  Anyone know if there is a way to sync all 3 mailing addresses to BB?

    Outlook copies as is from BB, work will be under work, mobile under mobile etc. Yes put all 3 in your BB make and they'll sync to your outlook automatically.
    I hope it helps

  • HT204053 I changed my Apple ID (email address) to a new Apple ID (email address), but my iPhone is asking for my password on my old email address which has been discontinued, now I can not get into iCloud or add Apps because the old email and password do

    I recently changed my Apple ID (to my new email address), but my iPhones are still showing my old Apple ID and are asking for my old password.  It no longer exists and now I can not add any Apps or get into iCloud because they previous ID no longer exists but that is what is popping up in Apple ID box and I cannot change it on the phone.  How do I get my new Apple ID assigned to my phone(s)?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If it's iCloud that is asking for these details:
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
    This article provides more information about Activation Lock.
    If it's iTunes asking for these details:
    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.

  • TS1363 having trouble syncing new 7th Gen nano to existing account

    Trying to sync new nano to itunes library?

    This came from another thread, but worked for me.  Problem is with newest iTunes 4.62 and Windows 8.1.  Unistall iTunes, as well as its helper programs (Apple Application Support, Apple Mobile Divice Support, and Apple Software Update).  Reboot, and reinstall iTunes.  It will reinstall all the other ones and you should be able to connect your nano.  Good luck.

  • How do I delete an e-mail address on the iPhone? (Already removed from contacts)

    Hi - I have a few friends that have changed e-mail addresses.  I have removed the old e-mail address from my contacts on my iPhone, however, when I go to begin a new e-mail to them the old e-mail address still shows up as an option.  I have already sent e-mails to the incorrect e-mail address a couple of times and I'd really like to delete these incorrect e-mail addresses completely from the iPhone.  I have a PC (not a MAC) and my contacts are through my Yahoo e-mail account.  I have deleted the incorrect addresses on the Yahoo account on my PC (not that it should matter anyway - since they aren't synced).

    iCloud is free (5GB) with iOS 5 you should look into it, makes syncing contacts and editing much easier. To delete an email address you select the contact from the address book, press edit, there will be a red circle with a white line through it, press that then press delete. Then add their new email and press done. If its still coming up the only thing I can think of is if you have an old email in your mail app from their old email address and that may be what is causing the old address to come up.

  • HT5622 How do I change my e-mail address on my iphone for my icloud account

    The e-mail address showing on my iphone for my icloud account isn't correct, I no longer use the e-mail and no longer have a password or access to it. I have amended my icloud account on a PC but it still shows the old e-mail on my phone, its driving me crazy...please help!

    Welcome to the Apple Community Lisa.
    Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account. You may have already done this.
    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.

  • I cannot sync new playlists from iTunes PC to my iPhone

    I have read through many Apple support topics and how-tos, I have tried everything I can to get iTunes to copy over/ sync new playlists from my PC. Doesn't matter if I select manual choosing of music, or select individual playlists, update my preferences, or drag the playlists over to the iPhone... every single time I try syncing the result is that those new playlists NEVER APPEAR on my iphone.  I do usb syncing, wifi syncing... nothing will work.
    This is incredibly frustrating!!   Now I understand why so many of my friends are just giving up on Apple products. 
    Why does such a SIMPLE process not work???

    Apples update to iPhoto 11 (9.4.1) seems to have corrected the probem! I can selectively sync photo albums and events again. If anyone else is having the problem update to 9.4.1 !

  • Match does not sync new songs on a Smart Playlists to iPhone. This has worked in the past, but stopped with 12.1.

    I have tried to turn Match off and on several times on both the computer (iTunes 12.1.0.50) and iPhone 6 (64 GB).  It syncs correctly to my laptop, but not to iPhone 6 or 2nd Gen iPad (64GB) both running IOS 8.1.3.  This seemed to work fine prior to iTune 12.1 on year old iMac.  The only workaround I've found is to download the song to the phone (the songs do show up in the song listing).  It then shows up in the playlist.  However, I may not want all my music stored on the iPhone so this is not really workable.

    When a new bookmark is added to one "device", Sync immediately sends that change to the Sync Server. And if you are watching a different "device" you should see the newly saved bookmark almost immediately. ''At least I have seen it happen that fast when Syncing between two Profiles on my desktop PC and I had both Profiles running and Tiled vertically, with the Bookmarks Sidebar open.''
    Keep in mind that internet congestion and Sync Serve load may slow then seemingly "immediate" action down a bit.
    As far as '''Tab''' Sync goes, open Tabs are Sync'd to the Server as Firefox is closed. I'm not sure, but I believe '''Tab History''' is Sync'd to the Server as each tab is closed.
    I'm not sure if a complete Tab History is Sync'd to a tablet device, or if like on a mobile phone the last 25 or so URL's are sync'd as "history" to the mobile device.
    Sorry, I can't advise you on whether to purge your data or to create another Sync account, I have never used those features. I am surprised that you don't have another email account to use to set up a 2nd account; it isn't that hard to create another email account at Gmail.

  • New Computer & System Mail & Address Book Problems

    I just got a used G5 with OS 10.4.6 installed. (I have the DVD for 10.4 from another source.) Two problems:
    1. I wanted to import my addresses from my address book & didn't see an option to do that, so, on the advice of a friend, I replaced my new address book with the old, from system 10.2. Now the address book doesn't work at all. Is there somewhere from which I can download or copy another address book for this system (10.4.6)? And if I was able to get a new address book, how would I import my addresses from the old address book?
    2. I'm trying to import my old mailboxes to my new mail program and it's not working at all. I click on the import button, get to the right files, it tells me they're imported, but then they don't show up in the mailbox list at all, even under the import area. There seems to be something wrong with my mail program. I also tried to add a new mailbox and it told me that it failed.
    Thanks for any help.

    Where did you get the 10.4 DVD, and is it a retail (boxed copy) or one that is specific to your G5?
    on the advice of a friend, I replaced my new address book with the old, from system 10.2.
    Bad idea, since it won't work. Don't listen to people who don't know what they're doing or have no experience troubleshooting Macs. That's the path to the Dark Side.
    You need to reinstall Address Book from your 10.4 DVD, assuming it will work on your system. You can try this:
    1. Insert the Mac OS X 10.4 install disc, navigate to the Optional Installs folder and open the Optional Installs.mpkg file, There should be a checkbox to install Address Book; check it and install it.
    2. When it's done, eject the installer disc and then use Software Update to update your system to 10.4.11.
    3. When those updates are done, select all your contacts in Address Book from 10.2 and export them as a vCard. Copy that vCard file onto the 10.4.11 machine, open Address Book and choose File > Import > vCards (Command-O), then navigate to that vCard file, select it and click Open, then wait for the import to finish.
    4. Make a backup of your Address Book immediately using File > Backup Address Book, and anytime you make any changes to your contacts (adding, deleting, modifying).
