HT5621 I've changed my AppleID because I had to change my email address. But I keep getting asked about my old AppleID because I can back up on iCloud with my new AID or the old one. How do I delete this old ID so I can use iCloud with my new ID
As explained above, my system keeps asking me to fix my iCloud preferences for my old and new AppleID since it's not backing up my files. I don't have access to my old email address and don't have my password for my old AID. How can I delete this and correct my iCloud ID issues? Thanks in advance. By the way, the Apple support articles don't cover this problem in a way that allows me to fix it. This problem exists on my Mac desktop, my iPad, and my
You may want to check, if you have changed all Apple services to use your new AppleID, just in case.

How on earth do I update my Apple ID to my new email address? I keep getting moved to 'change my password' sites, but I have a new email address and need to update my Apple. Frustrated!!
Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
Create a new email address, for example at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support. -
hi guys i have 2 ? 1 my daughters iphone is trying to update on my mac cant get it off help please ,,, 2 i have an old apple id and when i try to up date it keeps looking for the password how do i delete this old apple id help
Hi.
I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID. Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine. -
I have gotten a giftcard for iTunes and I want to spend it but before I had a credit card giftcard and I spent it all and now I don't have a credit card and I just want to use thee iTunes one how do I delete the card on my iPhone
Hello Clancbelle,
It sounds like you have a credit card saved to your Apple ID payment information and you would like it to be removed from the account and set the payment method to None. You should be able to do this with the following article:
iTunes Store: Changing your payment information
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1918
Changing your payment information using an iOS device
Tap Settings on the Home screen.
Tap iTunes & App Stores.
Tap your Apple ID. (If you aren't signed in, enter your Apple ID and password and tap Sign In.)
Tap View Apple ID.
Enter your Apple ID password.
In the Edit section, tap Payment Information.
Update the information that you want to change.
Tap the Done button when you're finished.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

I do not know my security question answers. I send my answers send to my old email address but I cannot get into that anymore. How do I send my email to the email address I have now?
Hi RileyDP,
You will have to contact iTunes Support to get them reset:

I already had verify an alternate email address but it seems not working for changing my security question
<Email Edited by Host>An alternate email address is not the same thing as a rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551 -
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. -

I would like to get rid of firefox 4 and go back to the older one, how do I do this
I would like to get rid of firefox 4 its a nuisance and go back to the old one how do I do this
It's helpful to give more specific feedback if you can.
Here's the process to roll back:
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information] (copy your whole profile folder).
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 4, and uninstall it. Do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Then finally you can reinstall Firefox 3.6. Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, it should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this myself! -
Itunes does not accept my password anymore since upgrading phone. They give me my very old email address. I retrieved that account and changed password accordingly. Apple said it was changed correctly, but itunes will not accept it.Please help
They give me my very old email address.
How old it is does not matter IF thats what Apple have as your user ID and if Apple have advised you its OK and it is not... then you need to deal with support where ID information is causing problems. -
This is occurring on the website Virgin Mobile. I was asked to perform some upgrades on my computer and now I am unable to get the content of my call history to display on a screen within this website. The 2nd window will display quickly and then shrink down before showing the call history content.
The error message then pops up saying "failed two attempts to get anything from cdr server"Are you using the original gray-faced OS X DVDs that came with the system (if so, what OS X level does it say on the disk) or a retail copy of OS X 10.6 or another gray-faced OS X disk from another system? You can't use a gray-faced OS X disk from, for example, an iMac or MacBook Pro, to install on your MacBook.
Was it originally delivered with an OS X level that is greater than what you're trying to install? You can't install an earlier level than what came with the system.
Did you boot to the DVD, and use Disk Utility to create one disk partition, then reboot and try to install? -

Changed my apple I'd email address but my iPad still asks for the old one
Changed my Apple ID email on the computer I run ITunes on. Opened my iPad and tried to update an App and it asks for my old email as username and therefore won't accept the new password.
I think it might be because I have not had this ipad linked to my Apple ID for over 90 days? Only got it a couple of weeks ago. It's so frustrating!
Thank you for the prompt reply.
