  • How do i change icloud accounts on my phone

    My phone is synced to my computer at work and I have my own icloud with my email and my husbands phone is synced to the computer at home and he has his own icloud with his email... 
    My husband did the new update for his phone last night and once he logged into icloud it chose my email address and we are now sharing contacts, calendar events, etc.  I don't want them to do this as we both use our personal phones for work.  How can I change his phone back to his icloud and we can go back to having our own contacts without all of this mixed up mess???
    HELP!!! I'm ready to smash both of them!!!

    1.  Settings --> iCloud --> Delete account
    2.  Re-setup iCloud with his own account

  • HT204053 I have accidently set up 2 iCloud accounts. I need to delete one so everything is one one. How do I do that? Or at the very least, how do I change ICloud accounts on my iPhone?

    Hello,
    I just set up my ICloud account and noticed that my iPhone and Mac were not syncing or sharing information. I realized that I have each of them set up under a different AppleID. How do I delete one account so that I can get all my Apple devices on one id?
    thank you!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't delete accounts, you can only stop using them.
    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")
    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 > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

  • How do I change Icloud accounts on a device that is used?

    So my wife has a used iphone that was given to her by her sister. I can't figure out how to change her icloud account from her sister's to mine. The username is locked in and we don't have access to the current account that is on there. How do I switch the 2?

    You will need her password to delete her account, so that you can add yours. Please see also "Removing a device from a previous owner’s account": http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • How do I change icloud  account on pc

    I installed Icloud on a work PC using my personal icloud apple ID. Now I want to change the account to a new apple ID that I created specifically for my work phone and PC. Having trouble as every time I un-install from the pc and attempt to reinstall it brings up my personal apple ID. Help

    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 > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

  • HT204053 how do I change ICloud account to a new account

    The previous iPhone 4S never used iCloud but had an account created. With the new iPhone 5S I wasn't able to create a new account as I wasn't able to delete the old iCloud account.

    On the iPOd yu can go to Settings>Store and sign out of one account and sign into another account.
    Just what are you trying to accomplish since you can only synce with one iTunes library.

    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")
    Yes you can continue to use the former ID for the iTunes Store.
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • How often can i change icloud account association/other ?s

    How often can i change icloud account association on a ios device.  If the ios device has a shared photo folder photo on it, will that setting still apply to the updated icloud account.by default.  How long will the shared photos from the original icloud account stay available to the other devices?  When a shared photo folder is disabled from the ios device, does it immediately remove acces via icloud?  if photo stream is activated on one ios device, does it activate on the other devices using that icoud account.  Thanks for your help

    You change it the same way you change the information for any Apple ID: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5621.  (An iCloud ID is also an Apple ID.)
    After changing the ID, read this to know what to do next: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796.

  • I changed my apple id but the apple id for icloud did not change on my mac.  How do I get icloud account information to change and match my new apple id?

    I changed my apple id but the applie id for icloud did not change on my mac in system preferences. 
    I have changed my apple id on system preferences under users and groups but the icloud preferences don't pick up the change.
    I restarted my computer, and still no change.
    I have been using icloud under my old apple id for mail calendars and notes.
    How do I get icloud account information to change on my mac's system preferences and match my new apple id?
    I am missing something.
    Please help.  Thanks.

    Thank you Roger, your solution gave me the courage to sign out of Systems Preferences.  The pop up told me it was going to delete my contact and other information from my mac, so I was hesitant to do that.  Well I did as you directed and I was able to sign in with my new apple id and I did not lose the information the pop up threatened I was going to.  So again thank you.  It is the little things that make a big difference sometimes.

  • How do I change icloud email when my apple ID has been updated to new email? Because of the update on apple ID, when I try to delete icloud account I have to put in the password, and it says username or password is invalid (because no longer apple ID).

    How do I change icloud email when my apple ID has been updated to new email? When I try to delete icloud account (in settings-icloud-delete account) I have to put in the password for the apple ID of my old email address, which is no longer my apple ID, and it says username or password is invalid (I'm guessing because that is no longer my apple ID).

    You will wait for the rest of your life. You need to fix it; no one else will. To turn off "Find my iPhone" and its associated Activation Lock you need the Apple ID and password that were used to turn it on. If you know the Apple ID you can contact Apple Account Security and have them reset the password (after you prove you are the rightful owner of that Apple ID). see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699.
    If you don't know the Apple ID the phone is permanently unusable.
