I deleted my original email account which is tied with my original apple id account. If I create a new Apple account will I lose all of my music,videos, and apps?
I deleted my email account that is tied with my original apple account. I created a new apple Id and I'm afraid that I will lose all of my previous purchases. Please help.
Sort of.
- Apps and other purchases are locked to the account that purchased them.
- You have to log into the account opd do certain things with the purchases like transfer then to your computer.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
Try recovering yur PS for the first axccount so y can change the email address.
How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. SeeChanging your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.
I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed. If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.

Hi fahmeed,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you need to create an Apple ID (iTunes, iBooks, or App Store account) without a credit card, see the instructions in this article:
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account without a credit card

If you already have an account created, but need to change the payment information, see this article:

When I try to open up any files or any application on the other account it says the file not found
You can change a password for an Apple ID. However, now whoever finds the iPod will know his email address and I assume that the email address is his Apple ID.
Apple ID: Changing your password
According to the terms of the iTunes Store, you have to be 13 in order to have an Apple ID. -
My iPad kept telling me that it was running out of memory so I deleted lots of pictures, videos,apps and music but I still don't have any memory. Is there anything else I can do/has anyone else had this problem?
After you deleted, did you reboot? Press ad hold the home and sleep buttons until the apple logo appears. Ignore the red slider. Stuff you delete sometimes does not get flushed away until you do that step.
Have you resynced? If so, unless you changed your sync selection on I tunes, all the stuff you deleted was put back on during the sync.
If you goto settings, general, usage there will be the space available at the top. And if you give it a minute, it will list all the apps you have,a along with their size. If you tap any of the apps it will then show the data and documents associated with those apps. You were right to go after videos first, along with music. -

I am trying to open my iTunes and a pop up says it cant open because files are missing. it also says please reinstall itunes. What do i do? Will i lose all of my music?
Let's try a repair install of iTunes.
Restart the PC first.
If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "iTunes" and then click "Repair".
If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "iTunes", and click "Change". Select "Repair" and click "Next" as per the following screenshot:
Can you launch your iTunes now? -
I can not remember my passcode on my iphone 4s. I tried 5 times. Told me to try again in 60 minutes. Will i lose my data, contacts, photos and texts if I enter it incorrectly again?
I believe if you really cant remember it, you can restore your phone by plugging it into itunes. This would wipe your data, but hopefully you've already backed up your phone via iTunes or iCloud.

Trouble in creating a new iCloud account from the existing one
my dad gave me his iPad which he bought(iPad 2) it's troubling me with the iCloud account, the iPad has my dad's existing iCloud account and I want to delete it but I don't have the password so does my dad he doesn't have the password for the account.so my question is could you assist me on how to create a new iCloud account without having the password of the old one.it uses iOS 7.1.2.
You won't be able to delete the existing account in order to set up a new one without the password for the old account. If your father doesn't remember the password, he can reset it as explained here: iCloud: Change your iCloud password.

Have 1 POP3 email account I want to work like IMAP email in icloud (keeps my iMac, iPhone, ipad mail in sync). Apple suggested trying creating a new Apple ID just for that POP3 email. Has anyone tried this to see if it works and will delete/update across multiple devises? Would mean keeping up with two Apple ID accounts but only other alternative I know of is paying for monthly service for Microsoft 365.
would I be able to "upload" (not sure how else to say it) my existing folders and subfolders containing all my emails so that they are all available on my new IMAP service, while still being available on my Mac?
Not easily, no. There's no direct transfer option between POP and IMAP, especially across email providers. The best you could do would be to forward all of your emails to your new address, although it's not clear that you need to - dropping your sbcglobal.net account doesn't instantly render all your existing mail void - it'll still be in your Mail client, you can still read it, search it, etc., it just won't be on your provider's server.
I have toyed with the idea of getting a MobileMe account. Would that solve my issue/question above?
MobileMe would be viable, especially if you're interested in synching your various iOS devices. It's not free, of course, unlike Yahoo and Gmail, although you've already discounted them...
I have also toyed with purchasing my own URL, but it's hard to tell from the sites (1and1, Namecheap, etc.) if they come with IMAP email accounts included.
Some registrars offer email hosting bundles with a domain registration. This could be a good way to go. GoDaddy, for example, have a email hosting option for domains you register with them. -
I have an ExportPDF subscription under an old account for which the email does not exist anymore and I have forgotten the password. Therefore I cannot reset the password. I have created a new Adobe account so how do I get the subscription for ExportPDF moved to the new account?
Hi lgmmo,
I think your best best to get this resolved is to contact Adobe Customer Care. Here's the contact info: Contact Customer Care.
A quick Chat session should get you fixed up.
Please let us know if you have additional questions.

I have given my 4s to my wife, she has an iCloud account which uses her work address, she has now left the company and we want to start a new iCloud account, trouble is we cannot delete the old account, we have created a new iCloud account but the iPhone won't let us log into it as it only recognises the old version, we can't access her email anymore to reset the account. Have tried all online help. We restored the phone through iTunes
Ah thanks Razmee however there is NO option to delete the iCloud account in settings!

Arghh!! I am literally about to throw my new iPad out of a window - apple is driving me beyond crazy. I have an old iTunes account to which all my music is saved. I have just created a new apple id and want that to be the one that my iTunes account references - it won't let me change my old email to this as it says my new apple I'd is sychd to another account. How do I do it? Am desperate!
Delete them and then download them from the desired Apple ID. This may require repurchasing paid applications.

I created my Apple ID in Ireland, but would now like to switch to a German Apple ID, keeping the same email address. How do I delete my old Irish Apple ID, so I can create a new German one with the same email?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Click on your account name in the top right corner of the iTunes store in the iTunes application on your computer, enter your password and click the "view account" button. Navigate to the Apple ID summary where you have the option to "change country or region".
In order to change your location, you will need a credit card registered to an address in the location you are trying to change to.
You cannot change your location if you have credit on your account, if you are unable to spend your credit and leave a balance of zero, contact Apple, which you can do through iTunes Store Support. -
I have set up a second iTunes user account on my PC, but when I create the new iTunes account it copies the music, videos etc from the original account and they seem to be linked, so that when I delete a song from one library it deletes from the other one.
On the online tutorials I've seen it shows that when you create a new iTunes library it should open as a blank account, but that isn't happening.
What am I doing wrong?If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar
If necessary:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X -
My husband and I had been sharing an iTunes account, which meant that when he synced his iPhone, all his apps and music appeared on mine as well, and vice versa. This was annoying, so I created my own account and have changed the Apple id on my phone. However, when I try to sync it on iTunes, no devices at all show up in the sidebar. What am I doing wrong?
Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings. Be sure to turn it off.
You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account. You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account. (have restrictions turned off) That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices. Then sign in using the new ID.
