HT5622 Help I changed my apple ID cannot access icloud

I changed my apple id to a new email address and now I cannot get into icloud on my phone or ipad how do I resolve this?

settings - icloud - delete account - then sign in with your new id.
Or if you want access to the icloud account, you'll need to sign in with the old apple id.

HT204053 I changed my Apple ID and my icloud storage in my IPad was not transferred to my new ID, how can you help me?

I changed my Apple ID and my icloud storage was not transferred to the new one, how can I retrieve it?

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. However, with iOS 7, you must provide the password for the old ID to turn of Find My iPhone before you can delete the account.
If the old ID is an earlier version of your current 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 iPhone on your device, 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.

I also leave apps open that I use regularly as this saves battery and processing power by not having to keep opening and closing them.
Many people find that hard to understand, but from what I've read it's quite true. Yep, it's true. Leaving apps open does use less battery than constantly closing and re-opening them (certainly true on iOS). This is because, as MI5 explained, the phone doesn't have to use battery and processing power to continually re-open them. iOS 'pauses' each app when you come out of it, so that it's not using any power. The only time that an app will use power in the background is if you have background usage enabled. The app would then use power whether it has been closed or not. Examples of this would be apps such as Facebook or Twitter where the phone is continually checking for notifications. Battery usage is absolutely minimal though

Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) HELP!

Changed my Apple ID email, but ICloud does not recognize my new login, only my old one (which is now non-existent) and requires the password to do anything. Everytime I go onto the ICloud page it shows my old email and requires the password, but I can't exactly type in a password because that won't work. I can't find a way to change my email or delete ICloud.

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, do the following:
Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going 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. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) 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 back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

TS4002 changing my apple id on my icloud account

I recently changed my apple ID to a new email address. I cannot change it on my iCloud account and now my imessage and things associated with iCloud will not work! please help! Changing my apple ID has proved to be a huge hassle just want everything to function smoothly again!
thanks!

Go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new credentials. When you delete the account it deletes the account and your synced data from your phone but not from iCloud. Provided that you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in and turn your data syncing back on.

HT4436 is there a way to change the apple ID on an Icloud account? I used to share everything with my daughter but she's old enough we need to separate the accounts.. I would like to "give" the ICloud account to her, because all of her games are on it.

Is there a way to change the apple ID on an Icloud account? I would like to "give" an ICloud account to my daughter. We used to share one, but she's getting older I would like to split our accounts. She has her own Apple ID but since all her games are on this ICloud account, I would like to give it to her and start my own.

You can migrate your device and a copy of the iCloud data to a new account. To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; your daughter's device won't be effected by this), choose Keep on My iPad and provide the password when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
Once you are on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
The existing iCloud email account cannot be moved to your new account so you will need to give your contacts your new email address if you are giving the account to your daughter.

HT5621 How do I change the Apple ID stored on my MacBook Air? I have changed my Apple ID on the Apple ID website, but both my MacBook Air and my iMac show the old Apple ID when accessing iCloud.

How do I change the Apple ID that is stored on my MacBook Air. I have changed my Apple ID on the Apple ID website but both my MacBook Air and my iMac show the old Apple ID when accessing iCloud.

I had this problem on my iMac and fixed it after a half hour of frustrated trying. I had changed my Apple ID on my iPad mini while traveling. When I finally got back home after a few months, I couldn't log in to iTunes on my iMac. The old Apple ID was still being used on my iMac. I tried just highlighting it and deleting it and typing in my new Apple ID. No dice. The login just defaulted to my old Apple ID. I tried clicking on the drop down menu that appears when you right right click your Apple ID that appears at the top of the page after highlighting the 'iTunes Store" in the left side list. I saw "account" so I clicked on that. The "account" settings on my iMac showed my new Apple ID but my iMac wouldn't use it. It just kept defaulting to my old ID. I shut down. I logged back in. Same result. Finally I right clicked the same drop down menu and saw "sign out" at the bottom of the list. Even though I was not signed in to iTunes, I clicked "sign out". My next log in to iTunes showed my Apple ID as blank and I was able to type in my new ID. Hope this helps.
I am a long time 20 year Microsoft user. I am somewhat ( 1 year) new to Apple. With Microsoft, I found that fixing problems was clunky and complex, but there was always a post somewhere that explained the fix. Microsoft's explanations stated even the most obvious fact. Even if everyone knew that the sky was blue, Microsoft's instructions would still tell you that the sky was blue. With Apple, I find that the obvious is sometimes not so obvious. But the fix is almost always easy once you find it, without many of the elaborate maneuvers needed in Windows.

HT204053 I just changed my AppleI D and password and now I cannot access icloud on my phone or ipad.

Due to unexplained charges to my itunes account I just changed the email address and password associated with the account. Now I cannot access icloud on my iphone 4s or on my ipad. Help!?

To change your iCloud ID, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID. This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account. To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

Apple Applications cannot Access the Internet, Others can

I've owned my MacBook for about 1.5 years now and it's starting to have some stability issues. Daily hard-locks are becoming the norm. I suspect hard drive issues may be to blame. I have repaired permissions and verified and repaired the disk. That seemed to help for a little while, but this latest problem is throwing me for a loop...
Apple applications cannot access the Internet. Apple Mail (RSS, POP, ad IMAP), Safari, iTunes (PodCasts, iTunes Store), and Software Update all time out while trying to contact servers. Firefox, OpenVPN, command line SSH, ping, etc, all have no problems.
My next step is a reformat, but this week is a really inconvenient time for me to do a backup and restore and I'd love a quick-fix if there is one. Any suggestions?

Thanks. I just realized that is was serious user error. I forgot I had enabled Socks proxy in Internet connections a couple of days ago and that my Mac apps would still be using that while my other apps would not. Thanks!

I changed my Apple ID for an iphone 4s and need to change the iCloud Apple ID/password. I am unable to change the Apple ID under the iCloud account information without the password which no longer exists. How can I update my phone?

I had to change the Apple ID used for my iphone 4s. How do I change the Apple ID for the iCloud information? - the old Apple ID/password no longer exists and this information is requested to make a change. I am unable to change the Apple ID for the iCloud account.

Apple IDs never go away, so it still exists.
But lets be clear. You actually stopped using an Apple ID and created a NEW Apple ID. You didn't just change the email address of your Apple ID? That means that all of the music and apps purchased with the old Apple ID will have to be purchased again.
If you really did create a new Apple ID you will need the password associated with the old one to disable Activation Lock. There is no way around this. As I said, the old one still exists. You can use the standard tools to recover the password at https://appleid.apple.com.

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)
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.
