How can I change my apple ID email address when I can't access old email (It's an old work address I can't access anymore)

How can I change my apple ID email address when I can't access old email (It's an old work address I can't access anymore)? Whenever I try it always wants to send things to my email address to confirm. I have a new apple ID and a new email address, I want to use this now for my iphone and my macbook air but I can't and I'v

Thanks Lawrence. I've spent over 3 hours on the phone/chatting to online support and none of it seemed to help as it all revolved around resetting emails etc but can't do any of it without my access to my old email. Now my phone won't take cloud because they advised to set up new apple ID and use that, but can't sign out of old one completely. Also doesn't help because my phone and laptop are set up on the old one. Thanks for the help.

How can I change my apple ID email address?

How can I change my apple ID email address?

I just did follow Varjak's instruction, but it refused. I was asked to enter my Apple ID's email address which unfortunately is the same as my Apple ID. I created two different passwords for each Apple ID n primary email address when I set up my I tune account in the first place, however.
I do remember my Apple ID password because I have used it every time I installed new apps, but I completely forgot my password for the primary email address because I've never used it at all! I have another email address which I actively use it for all my email. I want to change my primary email address which happened to be my Apple ID as well to the one I actively use.
Because of the explained problem, I can't log in to Icloud as I have been asked to verify by following the instruction sent to my primary email address.
I would really appreciate it if any one can help me solve this problem.
Thank you all.
Suzy

HT5621 How can I change my apple id on icloud?

How can I change my apple id on icloud, I have done it online, but when I try to get into it on my iphone it still comes up with my old apple id, and I cannot change it as it keeps asking for my password which the old id will not accept?

You have to delete the account: Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Try changing your ID, online, back to your old ID, then delete the iCloud account on your phone. Once done, change your ID back to the new one you want to use.

How do I change my apple id email without the password? I really need help.

You don't. You'll need the password to that Apple ID to get in and make any changes to the account. If you've forgotten the password, go here:

HT4859 My iCloud does not allow me to change my user email account. How can I change to a new email account and restore my iCloud?

I was recently hacked so I had to change to another email account and now iCloud won't let me back up because it is still only allowing the old email acct to be the main one. How can I switch to a new email account for my iCloud?

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")
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)

How can I remove an icloud email address if i have forgotten the password?

How can I remove an ICloud email address that's on my IPhone if I have forgotten the password? I have tried to reset the password through Apple ID but I no longer have access to the email address and its not recognising my birthday

If all you want is an additional email address you can create up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account.
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
More information on aliases here:

HT1420 How can I change my Apple ID email for an account with 100s of purchases to the email address I have that (at some point) I logged into gamecenter and "claimed" it as another person?

^---topic
I have used a @yahoo email address for 10 years as my apple ID when purchasing things. The biggest problem being, that at some point, yahoo decided to delete the email account and I can't use it. I would like to use my email addresses that I actually use (@me, @gmail), but I guess I used them at some point to log into gamecenter or some other useless apple thing. I know you can change the email associated with your account, but apple is showing that my emails are already in use, so I can't use them for this purpose.

Change the email you used in "gamecenter or some other useless apple thing" then change your AppleID.

It continues to ask me for my password for the old address nd when i enter it or have tried to change it, it does not recognise that address. Do I have to take y phone back to new to be able to log in to the icloud with the changed email address?

Sync with iTunes so you have a backup. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings. Restore the unit as New. Reconfigure for your new ID and password. Restore your apps, etc. from backup.

How can I change my Iphone default email send from an alias to the address I want?

My Iphone sends my emails "FROM" an alias address I have within my ISP email account. I don't want this alias to be used as the default send. It seems my IPad works fine as does my Imac and Macbook PRO. The Iphone is the only one that does this.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks,

Open iTunes on your Mac, click "iTunes Store" on the upper right, then click "Account" on the middle right. Sign in there. That will make the signed in account the "primary".

How do I change my Apple ID/email for cloud?

Most of the people on these public forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here. I've asked the hosts to remove your email addresses from your post.
If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the phone by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it.
