I cannot get into my iCloud account. I need to change my password.

I have a MP, MBP, iPad, iPhone 5 and iPhone 6. My MP and iPhone6 are connected to iCloud but I cannot get the others connected. I cannot find a record of my password and need to change it. Can it be the same as my Apple password?

Hi Bob1177,
Your iCloud account is an Apple ID. You can change the password to that account by following the steps in this article -
Apple ID: Changing your password

  • I changed my email address and now cannot get into my icloud account to change that because I don't know the password

    I changed my email address and my password on my ipad but when I tried to change the address on my icloud account it keeps asking me for my old password which I no longer know. I can't delete the account because I can't access it without the old password

  • HT204053 I cannot sign into my iCloud account.  My MAC has my incorrect apple id but it is correct on all other devices (ISO).  How can I get this corrected?  Thanks!

    i cannot sing into my iCloud account on my mac.  IT has the wrong apple ID and my apple ID that has been verified does not work. My other devices have my correct apple id and I can sign in.  This is very frustrating.  Thanks

    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.

  • All of a sudden I cannot log into my icloud account

    All of a sudden I cannot log into my Icloud account. Not on my phone and not on a PC. I found a thread that said the first step was to try to sign in to the apple ID to make sure I had my credentials correct. I have done that, so I know I have the correct credentials. My phone has been connected continuously for some time now including this morning. But now I get a connection error. Both on my phone and on the PC.

    Seems to be up and down at the moment.  For the past hour or so I haven't been able to access via the web or from mail apps (phone, desktop, etc.).  Some mail just came through on my phone but it now cannot connect again.
    FWIW, system status is green across the board, but that's always laggy and inaccurate: https://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/

  • I cannot get into my icloud email

    I cannot get into my icloud email.  Name and password fine.

    If you already have an iCloud account, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your existing iCloud ID.

  • I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    I have tried to change my User id which is an email address I no longer want to use. Now I am constantly getting requests from icloud and Apple ID for my password and cant get into my icloud account.

    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.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, 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.

  • TS3988 I cannot sign into my icloud account

    I cannot sign into my iCloud account, it keeps saying this; This Apple ID is Valid but is not an iCloud account, so what is?

    That message usually means that you have not set up iCloud using a device with iOS 5 or a Mac with OS X Lion.

  • I am trying to get into my iCloud account and it is saying invalid user name and password

    I am trying to get into my iCloud account and it is saying "Invalid User Name or Password". I thought that you use your Apple I.D. and password, but that does not work! So, how do you reset your user name and/or password if you don't know what ones ICloud is seeking....

    After resetting your password you might then need to log out of your account on your device by phone on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if it's on iOS 6) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • How do I get into my icloud account

    I'm new to icloud. How do I get into my icloud account (not my icloud email)?

    To access some of your account settings and other data you can go to http://www.icloud.com on a Mac or PC (not an iOS device), though this will not show, for example, storage used or purchased data settings.
    To make use of iCloud sign in in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud (or the iCloud Control Panel on a PC) and enable the data types you want to sync. You can also view data usage there and purchase additional storage if required.

    Please help.... cannot get into the ITUNES account. It says unknown error has occured. Is there a problem with ITunes?

    Same thing happened with my iPhone 4S - no one is any help.  Thanks Apple for such a crappy update!  I've called Apple, they say the SIM card needs replacing, I go to my service provider they tell me nothing wrong with the SIM card - provider tells me I now need a new phone.  Sheesh!  If someone has a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated.

  • I want to change my iCloud account. Buying iPad we gave a virtual (forwarding) email addr. We need to change to a real address. But when we try to change the iCloud account, we can only change the password. Note: we don't have Mac, only iPad and Windows.

    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 > 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.
