    My iCloud email address and my apple ID are different. I would like to change my iCloud to be the same as my apple ID. However I don't know my iCloud password and don't use the email address it belongs to. When I try to change the password, apple brings me to a page to reset my apple ID password (which I know and don't want to change). I have even tried to delete my iCloud account completely to start again but am not allowed without the iCloud password (which I don't have) there doesn't seem to be a place to change the email address of iCloud. What can I do?

    This is the answer that I had expected, so in this case you could only change your gmail.com address to another providers email addres e.g. outlook.com, yahoo.com, etc., but you won't be able to change the gmail.com address to a icloud.com email address. Apple just won't let you do that.
    Your iCloud account with @icloud.com email address and you Apple ID with gmail.com address are already connected and as I said before, Apple just let you merge this two IDs together.

  • HT2623 I would like to change my iCloud email address.

    I would like to change my iCloud email address but don't know how.

    You can't change it. To get a different address you have two options:
    1) Setup a whole new iCloud account under a different AppleID
    2) Setup an email alias within your existing account: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

  • HT2623 I would like to change my  "@me" email address and keep my apple id as is

    You can't change and @me.com email address.  You can set up an @icloud.com alias address to use that will receive email in your current inbox, but you can't get another @me.com address at this point (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a).  Just be aware that you can't later use an alias address to set up a new iCloud account, transfer it to another account or reactivate it should you ever delete it.

  • HT201342 I'd like to change my iCloud email address or create a new one, how do I do this?

    I'd like to change my iCloud email address or create a new one, how do I do this? I'm starting a new business and I've not really used my iCloud email address, I'd like to change the name to the business name. Can I do this? If so, how?

    You can't change an iCloud email address.  You can create an alias address to use that will receive email in your current iCloud inbox, but it will still be an @icloud.com address.  If you want to do this, this article explains how to create an alias: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.  Note: once you create an alias address, you can't use it to create a new iCloud account, move it to another account, of reactivate it should you ever delete it.
    You should also be aware that iCloud is designed for personal rather than business use, and as such, there are limits place on iCloud email accounts as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4863.

  • I have purchased a used iPad. I would like to change iTunes account to my own?

    I have purchased a used iPad. I would like to change iTunes account to my own - how do I do this and will I lose the apps that are already on there? Seems a shame - there is some nice stuff on it!

    Restore the iPad with iTunes as a new iPad.
    All apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account that was used to download the apps. In order to install an app update for an app that was downloaded with the previous owner's iTunes account, you need to know the password for the previous owner's iTunes account. This is to prevent stealing purchased apps. If any of the apps are free, you can download the apps with your iTunes account. For any paid apps, you need to purchase the apps with your iTunes account.

  • Hi Apple Team, I would like to change the iCloud account on my iPhone, however it says I must 'delete the account' before doing so? Does this mean that I delete the entire existing account, or just delete it from my phone specifically?

  • With green chroma concept, I removed the green background, now the green background is seen black. I don't want to have any other background clip, but I would like to change the background black to white. Please help me.

    With green chroma concept, I removed the green background.  Now the green background is seen black. I don't want to have any other background clip, but I would like to change the background black to white. Same like the advertisement clip in the Apple Website.  Please help me.

    If you want the whole of the project background to be white, you can change the colour in FCP X preferences.
    If you just want white for a section or clip, use a custom Generator from the Generators Library and change it to white in the Inspector.

    Thanks for this post. It corrected my similar issue. Note that you need to exit from/re-enter iTunes after deleting the song from your Purchased list.

  • HT4759 I'm getting a lot of spam in my icloud account and would like to change my icloud email address, how can I do this?

    After having a mac.com email for nearly 10 years I fell for a scam email and now am getting spammed daily in my email account.  I use this email account for everything and would like to either block the spam emails - although that's hard since they change their email address daily - or just get a new icloud email address.  I've researched this and have not found this easy.  Any suggestions on how to change my icloud email account? Keep in mind all my devices are connected through this email including iTunes.  Any help is appreciated - thanks!

    To get a new iCloud address you would have to create a new iCloud account and migrate your iCloud data to the new account.  If you want to do this, go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, and when prompted about what to do with the iCloud data choose Keep on [My iDevice].  Then set up a new iCloud account with a new ID, turn you iCloud data syncing back to On, and when prompted choose Merge to upload your data to the new account.  When you turn Mail to On you will get a new @icloud email address (@mac and @me addresses are no longer available).  Once your data is in the new account, you can just delete the old account from your other devices without saving the data on the device, then sign into the new one and the migrated data in the new account will be synced back to them.
    If you need to, you can change your iTunes ID to this new email address.  This guide explains how to change an Apple ID name, but you can follow this and edit the primary email address instead to change it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40.

  • I'm getting married and would like to change my iCloud email address or create another one

    i'm getting married and would like to change my mobileme/icloud email address to my new name. i've tried to create alias but it keeps saying cannot save address at this time? any tips? can i have 2 icloud email addresses?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    You can change your details at the address above (you can't change your ID if it's a me address).
    You can of course create a new account at any time and add it as a secondary to your existing account or use it as a primary account and add your existing account as a secondary account.

  • I would like to change my icloud email address but do not know how

    I can not open another account because linking email.
    The lady in the shop created the email but its not one that I can remember or like, please help to how I can change this-thank you

    Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change the address (short of creating an entirely new account).
    However, all is not lost. You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.
    More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
