HT4908 how can I change my email address for iCloud.

the people that set up my computer made the mistake of putting my last name in front of my email address, I would like to change that. Anyone tell me how?

David, I have a similar issue but I am still running into a road block. I have had an account with apple for email since before 2005 and it was perfect for that moment in life. I used my name to set up as my appleID. [email protected] It has now since been year and years later. I am married and have my own business. I would like my new apple email to be nonnaiandd.icloud.com. When going to set up a new apple ID as you suggested. It asks for a valid email address as the apple ID. Well, my valid email address is my icloud account ([email protected]) This email is what would be my primary email in the account. I want a new apple ID and new email. How do I proceed? When I do a new apple Id is still needs an email.. I'm frustrated. What to do. I wish I could simply change my account's apple ID and email to match to the new [email protected] Help. Thank you.

    How can I change my email address on iCloud?

    Hey Sblan2,
    According to the following document, you are unable to change the iCloud email address.
    from: Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5621
    However, one option you have would be to create an email alias:

  • HT201342 how can i change my email address on icloud account, it is already changed on my apple id

    How can I change my email address on icloud, I have already changed it on my apple id, but it still is asking for lmy old email and password and I can not back up or anything?

    Hello RousePryor
    If the iCloud account ends with an @icloud.com, then that is something that you cannot change it. If that is not the case, then you will need to sign out and may need to change it back to the old Apple ID to do so.

  • How can I change Primary Email Address to icloud email?

    I have an apple id been using for many years.  I would like to change the primary email address.  I would like to create a new icloud email address and use that as primary email for my apple id.
    When I try to do this in the Manage Apple ID it says that I cannot pick an email address associate with apple domain.
    How do I do this???
    Essentially I would like to start over with an icloud email address but keep all my existing itunes purchases etc.   If I create a new Apple ID with icloud email id I am hosed and cannot copy over my purchases.   If I stay with existing Apple ID, I can change primary email address but I can't use icloud email.
    Any suggestions??

    While you can't currently change your Apple ID to a Mobile/iCloud email address, I found a solution that helps with a related problem.
    Suppose you've recently got an iCloud email address, but Apple are still sending all your iTunes Store, App Store and Mac App Store receipts to your old gmail address (the one that's still your Apple ID). And suppose they're also sending all the Apple Support Communities notifcation emails to your old gmail address. How do you change it? How do you fix it?
    Well the option exists, but it is hidden away in a weird place. To get Apple sending all of their receipts and notifications to your new iCloud email address...
    • Go to your country's Apple Store website http://store.apple.com/
    • Click on the Account button in the top-right corner
    • Under Account Settings, click on Change your default shipping or billing info
    • Sign in with your usual Apple ID and password
    • The email address listed under Payment Information is the key
    • Click on Edit next to Payment Information and change that email address to your iCloud address
    That's all you have to do.

  • How can i change the email address for apple id and icloud?, how can i change the email address for apple id and icloud?

    i had to change the email address to my apple id. now when ever i try to use imessage or the icloud, it wont let me because it is using the old email address. i cant change it on my phone and idk what to do on my computer!

    If the old ID is yours, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go 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 iDevice, 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 iDevice 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.
