I have changed my email address so I changed my Apple ID and password.  Just realised haven't changed icloud details and now can't access as don't know password or security questions.  Want to delete and set up on new Apple ID.

I I have changed my email address so I changed my Apple ID and password.  Just realised haven't changed icloud details and now can't access as don't know password or security questions.  Want to delete and set up on new Apple ID.  Help please???

In order to change the iCloud ID on your device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, 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 iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. 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 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.

  • My computer uses my old apple id and I don't know the pw. How do I start signing in with my new apple id on my computer?

    My computer is set up with an apple id that I can't remember the pw to. When I got an iPhone I just set up a new apple id. Now I am not logged in to my itunes and cant access any of that without my old pw to my old id. Is there a way to deactivate my old account without having a pw? So I can set it up with my new acct?
    Thanks

  • Don't know answers to security questions or have resuce email, how do I change questions?

    I have no idea what community my question belongs in. So I just picked one. I'm sorry if my question is in the wrong place.  I want to know how I am suppose to change my security questions when I have forgotten the answers.  I already tried to do it and I had to answer questions before I could change them.  Now maybe it's just me, but why do I have to answer security questions that I can't remember the answer to in order to change the answers?????? Then it says that if you don't remember you click send an email to a rescue email.  How are you suppose to do that when you only have 1 email address and you can't use it because it is your primary on your account?  Please help. 

    You need to contact Apple. Click here, phone them, and ask for the Account Security team.

  • I want to sign in using apple id password and altho i have changed my email address on the settings, the old one comes up on the box on the ipad when trying to update all the apps.  so putting password in no longer works, as its the address. how fix ?

    Signing in using the apple id password to update and purchase stuff thru apple store, gives the old email and am unable to get into the apps store, etc...to change, update and purchase stuff.   when using password it won't work, as the email is wrong, yet in the box doesn't appear a place to change the email. would have thought as it changed, days ago - it would change to the updated email.
    how do i access the stuff ? thanks

    How did you fix this??

  • Don't know rescue or security questions. what do i do?

    i dont know my security questions anymore becuase i want to send a gift on itunes to him as a gift but i dont know my rescue email anymore becuase i dont know the password anymore. how can i change my rescue email?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • Corrupted Lightroom (Can't access Basic controls in Develop module.) Do I need to delete and reinstall and, if so, how to do it without involving Creative Cloud swamp?

    I am running on a McBook Pro, and suddenly cannot see or access the Basic options. Have I pushed the wrong button or has Lightroom gotten corrupted by my visit to Hawaii?
    My thought is that the program has been corrupted; normally I woiuld simply delete it and reinstall, but Adobe seems to want me to jump through the Creative Cloud hoops, which I tried once and quit almost immediately.
    Is there something that I ought to do to regain control ofmy life, or at least Lightroom?

    That's odd - remember it is "Adobe Photoshop Lightroom."
    On a MacBook, show the Launchpad (4-finger pinch on the trackpad) and type "Lightroom" in the search bar to find the app... Pin it to the dock when it's open so you can easily find it in the future (right click the dock icon, Options > Keep in Dock).

  • Changing printer email address on hp photosmart all in one B

    I have a HP Photosmart Plus B210 and a pc with windows 8.1 i wanted to scan with printer to pc but wouldnt connect to pc, since getting printer i have now changed my email address which is different to the one on the printer how do i change the email address on the printer, e-print tell me to go to settings menu option under wireless web srvice and settings and then disable then enable web services but i cannot find any of these settings on printer. All i can find is wireless setup which doesnt take me to where the printer email address is.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You will always have to use the claim code which was printed when registering the printer to web services. 
    You have to claim the printer within 24hrs.
    If you have not done this in 24hrs, print the information sheet again, get the claim code and then claim it and change the email.
    Kind Regards,
    Oliver

  • How can someone have my exact email address?

    I went to sign up for Facetime on my brand new iMac with my current email and Apple ID and then it asked if I wanted to use another email for folks to contact me on and so I entered it and then it said it could not verify the email address because someone else is using it! It is MY EMAIL ADDRESS how can someone else have my exact email address???

    I am having this problem as well signing up for iCloud on my iPad.  It's asking for an apple ID and it must be in the form of an email address, but both email addresses I use say "ID already exists".  Yet when I go to reset the password for either one, I never get the email.

  • I have an 8GB ipod touch and suddenly I'm able to access only the "sent" mailbox of Mail and not the other mailboxes.  I turned on and off.  I connected it to MacBook but still I can't access the other mailboxes.

    - Try resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Can you access the mail on another device?

  • I changed internet providers and email accounts.  I have managed to set up a new Apple ID but my I-phone is not recognizing it.

    I recently changed internet providers and thus had to set up a new email account.  I managed to change my Apple ID but my I-phone 4S is not recognizing it.  It still brings up the old user ID.  I am also unable to retrieve Windows Mail (also wants old info)  I synced my phone.  What else can I do?
