I have an email address that was used on one Appleid account and I have now created a separate Appleid for another device. Is it possible to transfer that icloud email address to the new Appleid account?

I had multiple iPhones and iPads associated with the same apple account and I have now created a separate account for two of them. The question that I have is whether there is a way to transfer the icloud email address to the new account?

Welcome to the Apple community 1960gmd.
Once an iCloud address is used for an Apple ID, you can't use it for any other.
Why would you want to use another Apple ID if you already have the address you want to use in another.
If you want your email on all devices but use a different ID for iCloud add it as a secondary account at settings > mail, contacts, calendars and just enable mail.

Home pc is under my husband's user id, I have an iPad and iPhone under my apple id. I have more music on my iPad then on pc or iPhone. If I set up synching over wifi for my devices... What do they sync to? Will the songs on iPad be added to phone/pc?

Home Sharing is designed to work on your local network not across the internet/cloud.
Stuff is accessed under the Computers column where your local iTunes library on a local computer would appear.
Home Sharing would share your iTunes content (i.e. stuff stored in itunes on the computer, not in the cloud) with AppleTV or an iPad etc on the SAME network.
AppleTV2 will not be able to see itunes content on the work computer over the internet. It's not designed to. if the work computer was on the home network it would.
iCloud is in it's infancy and is not a mature product - iTunes TV Show purchases appear on AppleTV, but currently music does not unless you are subscribed to iTunes Match. I find this rather odd to be honest, along with the inability to buy music on AppleTV2. Movies purchased in iTunes are not authorised for iCloud viewing currently either.
Maybe it has something to do with iTunes Match 'getting in the way' - i think they assume you'll use that whereas you really want to be able to access Purchased music from the cloud without subscribing to itunes Match which is overkill for some.

The active browser window that I use is constantly de-activating and I have to click on the window in order to navigate, type or do anything. It behaves as if I have clicked on another window to use even if it is the only window I have open.

Seems as if there is a set amount of time I have to use a browser window and when that time is up, I have to click on the window to use it again. Very aggravating. May not be a firefox issue, but I can't pin it down.

Hi username availabl,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If windows and menus on your computer are unexpectedly "losing focus" every few seconds, there are a few steps that can help isolate or resolve the issue.
First, try booting your computer into safe mode:
Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564
If things are working normally in safe mode, this usually means OS X is fine, and the issue is caused by conflicting software in your user account.
Next, see if the issue occurs in a new user account. The steps in this article also apply to creating a new user in Mavericks:
OS X Mountain Lion: Create a new user account
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11468
If the issue persists in safe mode and a new user, I would recommend reinstalling Mavericks:
OS X Mavericks: Reinstall OS X

My iPhone 5 has my old email address and password in it, I updated both online, but my phone will not recognize and therefore has now locked me out of my photo stream. how do I change my iCloud email on my phone???

Please help.
iCloud on my iPhone still has my old email in it with no option to update it. I have no access to the old email. I updated my email and password online via my macbook, but my phone will not recognize either! It keeps popping up a screen for me to enter my password, but it says it's incorrect.
How do I fix this on my phone?????
I can't fix it online because my iCloud online (although working) does not recognize either of my devices because they need updated….which I'm not able to do due to storage issues.
I just want my phone to recognize the new email and password!!
I have no idea what I'm doing but I'm about to throw this phone across the room.
thanks!

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

You should still be able to log into an old email account, even if you haven't used it for some time, very few providers delete email accounts.

I do know that I have a serious issue with flash. I constantly get errors saying it is busy, and you tube is always crashing or the videos stop playing and i am told flash is busy.. I have been working on fixing flash for 2 months.. one solution i have found that works is I close or end processes in task manager.. after a computer reboot task mgr will show 39 processes. after I end the ones that I know I don't need to be running I usually end up with 15 left running.
as for the plug in. the known plug ins are up to date. the unknown ones are 2 for advanced system care, windows presentation, google update ( for google earth,,I DO NOT USE CHROME) and microsoft DRM..these unknown ones have all been updated as off this message being sent..
I am running a computer from 2004. it is a AMD 3000+ with 1056 of RAM I personally think That my machine is to out of date and has no where near enough RAM. most browsers and other programs suck the computer's resources up. I think if i put in 2 - 1 gig mem sticks that some issues would be not " fixed" but fixed..
do you have any other thoughts or ideas??

This is the Firefox Start Page that was used in Firefox 3.6 and prior versions. <br />
http://www.google.com/firefox
The '''about:home''' default homepage looks a lot like that older default homepage, but it is missing the Google menu items at the top left-side of the web page, along with the '''''Sign In''''' hyperlink for signing into Google services and the '''''Options''''' "gear button" for setting Google search preferences.
If you want the orange Firefox button to show, instead of the Menu Bar showing, you need to hide the Menu Bar by right-clicking a blank spot on the Menu Bar and de-selecting the Menu Bar by clicking on Menu Bar in that contextual menu.

TS2446 A email account that was used is now not in use and songs that were purchased and added are bound to this old account from the same computer how do I the purchaser of these songs reclaim the authorization to play and use in my new account

A email account that was used is now not in use and songs that were purchased and added are bound to this old account from the same computer how do I the purchaser of these songs reclaim the authorization to play and use in my new account. even though account name may have been changed.

Just authorize the computer and retreive them.

FYI: you should have simply updated the AppleID with new info and continued to use it instead of creating a new one.

Years and years ago I signed up for firefox sync. I have no idea what the password is so I can use it on the new computer. I also do not know what email address I was using at the time.

Years and years ago I first started with firefox sync. I have no idea what the password is. Nor do I remember the email address I was using at the time. I now have a new computer and can't set up the firefox sync. I can not be the only person to have had this problem.

Unless you remember your "Username" (Not Email) then the only option I'm aware of is to Create a new account
*Request [https://account.services.mozilla.com/forgot Forgotten Password] (Username Needed)
*Create [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/sync/ New Account]
The whole point of Firefox Sync is to save/access data between different devices - Your Username should be listed on one of your Devices, unless you just happen to replace all of them at the same time.
If you could gain access to an account w/ atleast knowing the Username/Email Address/Password then what would be the point of "Security"
Thats why [http://www.steganos.com/us/products/for-free/locknote/overview/ LockNote] is handy to jot down account notes and secure it w/ a password... stick it on a thumbdrive.

Hi. How can I delete my icloud account on my iPhone? I don't have that email address I was using anymore. I tried deleting it but it is asking for the password and I don't remember it.

Hi, How can I delete my icloud account on my iphone? I don't have that email address I was using before anymore and I already tried deleting the account but it is asking for the password and I don't remember it.

Hi ale.vica,
You need to go to Manage your Apple ID, https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/, and sign in with your current Apple ID and password and do the following:
1.     Edit your current Apple ID and change it back to the ID which is displaying for your iCloud account. You do not need to verify it - this is only a temporary change
2.     Go into Settings>iCloud on your device and delete the iCloud account. Use your current password when your are prompted for a password
3.     Once the old iCloud account is deleted, go back into Manage your Apple ID and change your ID back to the current one
4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign on with your current ID and password
That should take care of your issue!
Cheers,
GB

Aloha! I bought an iPhone 5 sprint via ebay, it has an iCloud id that was used to previous user. I don't have any contact with the previous user. I want to delete that email or id account that is now existing in my cell phone.

Again, you wasted your money. You can ignore raymond73's post, as you won't be able to turn off Find My Phone or delete the iCloud account associated with this phone, without knowing that info.
I don't know how clearer I can be.

I was using a different itune id and now a new one but when i want to update the old app its always asking for my old app id. Is there a way to change my old app to my new id so that i dont have to use my old id.

There is no other way you can do now. Actually, you don't need to create a new Apple ID account, you can change the Apple ID from old email account to other email accout easily by all the steps below.
1, Open iTunes > iTunes Store > log in old Apple ID > Click on your apple ID on the right hand side on top > choose account > Apple ID > Edit
As long as you only change your Apple ID, then all the old apps are still under your new email account as well as you can keep downloading new apps.

By mistake, I created iTunes account using email that was used in my main acc.

Hi! By mistake, I created iTunes account using email that was used in my main acc. After that, everything i have bought/downloaded and etc disappeared.What should i do?

The primary email addresses on iTunes accounts have to be unique, you shouldn't be able to create a new iTunes account with the same primary email address unless the existing account had been deleted (only iTunes Support can potentially delete an iTunes account).
Had you asked iTunes Support to delete your existing account ? If you did then that would also have deleted its purchase history. Or had you changed the primary email address on the old account ?
