I changed my email address on my appleID but it won't let me change it in iCloud on my phone.

How in the world do I change the appleID under iCloud settings on my phone?  The text field is grey and it will not let me change it at all.  I got a new appleID and I want to change the **** thing but it's not letting me.  How frustrating.  Anyone know? 

Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account (this disconnects the device from icloud but doesn't delete any data on icloud or on other devices).
Then enter the new ID and password.

  • I'm trying to change my primary email address to what my emergency email address used to be, but it won't let me.

    I changed my emergency email address a couple of weeks ago, so I can use the one that was the emergency as my primary, but it won't recognise that that email address is no longer the emergency

  • I need to change my password for outgoing mail server but it won't let me

    I Need to change my password for outgoing mail server on iPad 2 but it won't let me change it. I can't send out mail

    I assume that you mean that the setting is grayed out and that is what "it won't let me" means. Have you tried selecting another SMTP server of you have another one available in the settings?

    I changed my apple ID, but it won't let me change the ID for icloud on my iPhone. How do I change it?

    You have to go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated credentials.  This deletes the account and your synced data from your phone, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a different account, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.

  • HT5621 I often use credit card for iTunes but also use iTunes but systems won't let me change back to my iTunes. I have redeemed and gives me a balance but I am unable to access.

    I often use credit card for iTunes but also use iTunes but systems won't let me change back to my iTunes. I have redeemed and gives me a balance but I am unable to access.

    If you can't find anything for exactly that amount then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will remove the balance for you : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • After changing the email address to my appleid I still receive emails about purchases on the old email (as well as the new).

    I recently changed the email address that was my Appleid. I verified it and followed all the steps the web told me to do. I signed out of itunes on my laptop and back in. I signed out of everything and back in on my ipod touch.
    Today I made my first purchase since that change, it was on a new computer. I authorized that computer and went through the steps itunes asked me for, password, security questions and so forth. I received an email stating a purchase had been made on a new computer.
    The problem is that I also received the same email at my old email address as well as the new one.
    When I check my appleid on the internet it says that only the new email is associated with the appleid. Which is how I want it. Why did the old email address get the mail as well as the new? Is there any way to stop that from happening in the future?

    Erasing and resetting the network settings in the phone seems to have done the trick.  Facetime is now working again.
    Settings> General> Reset> Reset Network Settings.
    I did not have to remove all data from the phone.

  • I changed my email address and apple id, but havebeen unable to change my cloud id

    I changed my email address and changed my apple id and password, but have been unable to change the icloud id. How?

    If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. Then 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 and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was.  You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so.  You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • The "Apple ID Password box along with the keyboard keeps popping up on my iPad and stays there.  I have changed my email address on my iMac but my old one still remains on the iPad.  Also changed password.  Nothing works!  I can't use the iPad like this!

    The "apple ID Password" box along with the keyboard pops up when I turn the iPad on and it stays there.  I have changed my email address on my iMac and also changed my password.  The old email address is still on the iPad.  Anyway, I can't use the iPad because can't get the apple id password box to go away.  Thanks for any help!

    This is an older photo but the sleep and home buttons are still in the same place on all iPads. The home button is the round button at the bottom of the iPad and the sleep button is also called the on/off button and it is at the top right corner of the iPad.

  • Changed my email address in Adobe ID but now cannot login to BC

    HELP! As I cannot login to BC now I cannot see where I can submit a ticket.
    I needed to change my email address in my Adobe ID but I now cannot login to BC with the new or old Adobe ID? I can login to Adobe.com and my Creative Cloud fine. I do have another BC admin login which works but I was hoping to upgrade my first site today.
    I used the chat support but they seem to think its a technical issue?? Any advice?

    I managed to get my old Adobe ID back with my previous email address and all works fine now. Phew.
    Does anyone know if you can change your Adobe ID email address that will work with BC without interuption? I just thought it would work?
