I want to make a new account on iCloud instead of the old one without loosing my information in the old one ?How could I do that?

If you want to change to a new iCloud accout you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account.
Before deleting the account, 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 photo stream album in the thumbnail view, 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.

  • HT1918 What if I want to make a new account, and I don't want to purchase the same product twice?

    I have one a count which works fine, but it won't buy anything from the US store and I can't change my nationality because of my season passes. So I decided to make a new account with the address I have in America, but I would have to buy everything I already did twice. So is there a way I can transfer purchases to my American account?

    No, there isn't. You'll need to continue to use that existing account for updates or to redownload purchased content.
    Note that to set up an account in the US iTunes Store for anything other than free apps, you'll need not only a US mailing address but also a US credit card or prepaid iTunes card.
    Regards.

    In case you're not clear - iPad/iPhone storage, and iCloud storage, are totally separate. Buying more iCloud storage does not give you more storage space on your device. Your device has a fixed storage space for apps and data (e.g., 16GB - which is more like 12GB in real terms). iCloud storage just allows you to store more documents, mail, photos, etc, in the cloud.

    "I want to transfer my music to a new account"
    You cannot.
    "How can i make a new account but yet still keep all my music?"
    Authorize your computer  for your Dads account as well as for yours.  That's it
    Put the music on your computer

  • I need to change my rescue email,but i forgot the password to that email,what will i do?and i have 25 ueros on this apple account so i dont want to make a new one!

    i need to change my rescue email,but i forgot the password to that email,what will i do?and i have 25 ueros on this apple account so i dont want to make a new one!

    Have you forgotten your password? - if so, you have a problem if the email address has gone dead.
    If you know your password, go to the iTunes Store, click on Account. log in and you can change the associated email address.
    If you don't know your password, and have no email address, you are going to have problems because it's difficult to see how Apple are going to identify you as the authorised owner of the account. Contact iTunes Support: go to http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ - click on 'Other iTunes Store Features' in the list and then on 'Podcasts'. You will see a link to either 'Express Lane', which will guide you eventually to some contact options, or you may see a link to email them.

  • We have always used one iTunes account and I want to crate a new account for my daughter.  What is the best way to go about this and will she need to download free apps again?

    We have always used one iTunes account and I want to crate a new account for my daughter.  What is the best way to go about this and will she need to download free apps again?

    Not going to happen the way you want it to.
    When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
    Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

  • I have a new computer and I want to make it my home device for I tunes. I have home sharing, and all of the music and files are on the new computer. Now what do I do to make the new computer the home computer for Itunes?

    I have a new computer and I want to make it my home device for I tunes. I have home sharing, and all of the music and files are on the new computer. Now what do I do to make the new computer the home computer for Itunes?

    The computer (windows platform) where I initially began using Itunes has four other computers/devices that are shared with it. All four of the other computers show up in my account, and can be managed. Or I can remove them. But on the new computer that I want to be my base computer (home if you will). The computer I want it to replace, when ITunes is open, has a tool bar, with various functions. All of the other devices are linked to that computer in ITunes, under Home SHaring. The new computer, shows the downloads via Home Sharing, but it does not show/have any tool bar.
    I want to activate the new computer to be the computer via ITunes where all of the devices are linked to it as the base for ITunes. And, I don't know how to make that happen.
    I hope that makes sense.

  • Gamecenter asking me to make a new account when I sign in.

    When I sign into Gamecenter on settings, it brings up terms and conditions and asks me for a new username. When I type in my username, it says it is taken (by my real account, of course) This has happened once before, but I just used a different account for a while and tried again. This time it has not been working. I want to know how to fix this so it doesnt happen again. It starts when I sign out of my account, and I just want to sign in so I can change the username so I can make a new account with that username. Any suggestion?

    My Error: I found out that it was Mozilla Thunderbird that was causing the problem. I uninstalled it and the problem went away.

  • TRYING TO MAKE A NEW ACCOUNT

    So..
    Over the last couple of days I've realised my account might be hacked as I lost my iphone and believe it could've been left signed in and I also saw an iPhone emotion going to be sent and then it disappeared again.
    I also found out I had numerous accounts registered with my email address (the same email address each time) and I've been going through each Skype name/account that I apparently had registered and have changed the email address to each as well as all the information, however with my main account (which I think someone else is signed into) when I sign in online my name appears the same as what it did before I changed it to afj--- and then it changes to aif---
    I've also tried making a new account but each time it says I've already got a skype account registered even though I've been through all the accounts that it comes up with when I click forgot skype name (to see what accounts are registered with my email address and what the skype names are) and I've changed all the accounts that were registered with my email address to different information, deleted the contacts in each and changed the email addresses yet when I go to make a new account its STILL saying I've got an account registered with the email address! Its annoying too because I have to wait 24 hrs in order to search for any other accounts under my email address!!!!

    Hi, Ursulallam_, and welcome to the Community,
    There is only one place you can go to get these account issues resolved: Skype Customer Service.  We here in the Community do not have the tools or the authority to address account-related matters, and as our Community Guidelines explain, the Community is not a branch of Skype Customer Service.
    Here is a link to the instruction on how to contact Skype Customer Service via their secure portal: Contact Customer Service
    Here are a few extra notes to guide you along the way ...
    You will need to proceed through each step, one at a time. Sign on to the Skype website as requested. Choose the subject and topic which most closely matches the item you need assistance with. Then, continue past Step 2 of the instruction where several articles from the FAQ library will appear for you to review, and proceed to Step 3, Continue Support Request (the blue "button" appears at the lower right corner of the website page). You may also skip through Step 4 where you will be referred back here to the Community; no need to do this as the Community is where you started. When you complete the web-form and click Submit, your information is relayed to Skype and you will receive a reply via e-mail unless you are transferred to start an instant message chat session with a Customer Service agent.
    If you experience any problems reaching Skype Customer Service, please try again using a different web browser than you typically use.  One of the Community's gurus explained to me that website scripting errors can cause these issues.  If you would kindly post back with what web browsers you used, including which links you clicked on and where exactly during the process your progress was halted, this would be most appreciated.  Screen shots would also be perfect -- as long as no personal information is shown.  Please also note which computer or device and its operating system that you used.

    Elaine

  • Can you delete an iCloud account but then make a new account with the same password?

    Me and my mum share the same iCloud account with her email address, but I can't make my own unless I delete my mum's account that I share with her. If I delete the account, will my mum be able to make a new account with the same password?
    Thank you!

    Yes.  You can use the same password for all your accounts (although it's less secure to do so).  You just have to use a different Apple ID to set up a new account.

  • I want to make a new site in dreamweaver and host it on business cstalyst

    I want to make a NEW site in Dreamweaver CC and host it on the Business Catalyst platform.But it seems the only way to use dreamweaver in business Catalyst is to import a BC template into Dreamweaver then upload it to BC. I want to create an original site and use the BC platform, is that possible? This seems like it should be simple and automatic, even encouraged. But as of now the only way to create an original site is to use Adobe Muse. Which is weird, seems like Adobe missed this one somewhere...

    I don't think you understand: I want to open Dreamweaver and build a brand new site, then when I am done I want to host the dreamweaver site on the Business Catalyst platform. I dont want to use anything in BC to build the site, I just want to use the hosting platform. I do not want to import a BC site into dreamweaver or anything like that. I just want to use BC the same way I would use godaddy, or uhost or any other hosting provider. Based on your response you said that "of course its possible to build a BC site in Dreamweaver" I dont want to build a BC site, I want to build a Dreamweaver site and host it on the BC platform. Like I said before it doesnt seem like this is possible. As of now we can only build a new site in MUSE and integrate it into BC without using a BC template. Can you understand what I am saying. I DONT WANT TO USE A BC TEMPLATE, I WANT NOTHING TO DO WITH BC WHILE I AM BUILDING THE SITE WITH DREAMWEAVER, JUST LIKE MUSE DOES.
