    You don't have to do anything with the first iPod that you don't use anymore. If you are planning on keeping it, put in a drawer in your house and forget about it.
    You don't need a second account to use with the new iPod. I use one Appl e ID and iTunes library for two iPods, and two iPad. I have different content on all four devices. You can select exactly what you want to sync to each device and it can be different content on all devices.

  • I need to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well.  Does anyone know how this works??

    I have to change my apple ID because I'm changing my email address. (I have a Comcast address and am switching to U-verse) I'm worried that when I do, I'll no longer be able to use my first generation apple tv unless I change the apple ID there as well. I'm also trying to find out if changing my apple ID is going to interfere with getting my itunes content on my computer and my iphone.  Does anyone know how this works??

    My iTunes appleID is an old defunct e-mail address - it does not have to be functional.
    Do what Winston says to ensure you keep getting correspondence related to that ID.

  • I have changed my e-mail address and therefore need to change my apple ID. When I change it to my new address it says it is already my rescue address and cannot be used. Any ideas how to change my rescue address?

    To change the iCloud ID ("email address") you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your 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.  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 iDevice 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.

  • Icloud shows wrong apple id , how do i change it

    icloud shows wron apple id , how do i change it to the correct apple id

    To change the iCloud ID on your phone go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.  (This only deletes the account from your phone, not from iCloud.)  If you are signing back into the same account with just a renamed ID, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.  Your iCloud data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.
    If, however, you are changing to a new iCloud account with a new ID, choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, then choose Merge after signing into the new account and turning on your iCloud syncing to upload your data to the new account.
    Before deleting the account, save your photo stream photos to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).

  • HT204053 i have an used i phone and don't have the apple id how do i change it

    i have an used i phone and don't have the apple id how do i change it

    Any content that is currently on the phone will be tied to the account that bought/downloaded it (so you won't be able to update any of its apps or copy its content to your computer's iTunes).  You can log out of the currently logged in account by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if it's on iOS 6) and you can then do Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings to remove all of the previous owner's content - you can then log in with your own account on it and copy your own content onto it from your computer's iTunes

  • HT4623 i change my apple id but it didnt change on my phone how do i do that ?

    hello
    i had change my apple id and it didnt change on my phone how do i change it on my phone

    Change iTunes Store account  on an iOS device -  Log out of your current account with Settings.app > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6)  > tap on your AppleID. Log in with a different account. Note, turning on automatic downloads or re-download past purchases may tie the device to that account for 90 days - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

    Hi Baem_leeds
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    If you change your Apple ID you will need to sign in with the new information or password the next time you use an Apple service or feature that uses Apple ID. If you have multiple devices that use features and services that require an Apple ID, you will need to sign in again on each device.
    The links below will provide additional information:

  • HT204053 I just changed my apple ID, how can I make my icloud link up with my new ID?

    I just changed my apple ID, how can I make my icloud link up with my new ID?

    Did you simply change the primary email address of your existing AppleID at
    https://appleid.apple.com/
    Or, did you create a new AppleID.  If you created a new AppleID, then you cannot.  All you can do is use the iCloud with the old AppleID, or create a new iCloud account with the new AppleID.
    If you changed the primary email address of the exisitng AppleID, you may need to uninstall the iCloud account on the iPhone and reinstall it to get it to use the new email address and password (you won't loose anything, its just there a means of resetting the cached credentials associated with the iCloud account).

  • My ipad is syncing notes to an old phone with a different apple id how can I change it to sync to the new iphone icloud is off and so is home sharing

    Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
    You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.
