I have several questions. First one, how can I change the email address on my icloud to match my itunes?, I have several questions. First one, how can I change the email address on my icloud to match my itunes?

The email address I have now is not the email I had when I set up my icloud and now I can't update the new email address on my iphone, can someone help me?
Second question, I didn't know that everyone in the house had to have a separate itunes account so now my oldest information is on my iphone now, not mine. I have lost all my contacts, notes and everything and all the information from my oldest is now on the icloud not mine. How do I get my information back on my iphone?

If you need to change the primary email address associated with your iCloud Apple ID, see "How to change you Apple ID and primary email address" here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68. If you change the name of your ID you will need to go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your new credentials. Deleting the account will only delete the account and your synced data from your phone, not from iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing accounts, you data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in. If you have any photo stream photos on your phone that are over 30 days old, save them to the camera roll before deleting the account (open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).
On your second question, did you change iCloud accounts and lose all your data? If so, is your data still in the original account when you sign into it and check from a computer?

I started an account on iTunes when iPod first came available. Bought several iPods in that time. Eventually I changed my email address and continued to buy music and games. Now I have 2 Apple ID. How can I get everything on one ID?

I have 2 Apple ID. One old on yahoo I don't use, and another on gmail I use regularly. How can I drop the yahoo Apple ID while still keeping all music and other apps? I want everything on my latest apple devices and want to do so with just one account, Apple ID and password..

-The specific point:
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.

I have an Apple ID and still have one but my first ID was with one email address which I change and I made the change with Apple but I cant with iCloud. How can i DO iT?

How can I edit my email with icloud?

In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

How do i sign up for a new e-mail address @icloud or @me; and can I have more than one e-mail address?

You create an @icloud.com address in the first place by signing into Settings>iCloud with your Apple ID and choosing an addres - you can only create an @icloud.com address, not @me.com.
Then if you want further addresses on the same account 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.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
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.

When initiating an e mail to someone with several addresses used in the past the one I use most often does not come up in the first position. How can I get these multiple e mails prioritized?

We are talking about the Mail app, right? In the Mail menubar, click on Window and then Previous Recipients:
That eliminates the previous recipients. If you are talking about the suggestions because there are 10 people with the name 'Steve' in your Contacts, then I do not know how to eliminate those unless you change the name slightly or wait until you type the last name or some other differentiator.

Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address. My other devices all have the correct address. How can I get the correct address for my iPhone? The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

Whenever I update my iPhone software, it asks me to sign in to iCloud with an old email address. My other devices all have the correct address. How can I get the correct address for my iPhone? The only Apple ID that works for logging in is my new one.

To change the iCloud ID 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 (if you're using iOS 7), 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.

I have forgotten my password for icloud, have an invalid email address and do not know my security answers. How can I transfer all my data from my old iphone to the new one?

I have forgotten my password for icloud, have an invalid email address and do not know my security answers. How can I transfer all my data from my old iphone to the new one?

In this case you won't be able to do that?

If I have forgotten my security questions and am not given the option to send them to an alternate email address because I didn't have one set up at the time, how can I get passed this point? I'm sure I'm blocked out at this time from trying.

I cannot remember my security questions and I am not given the option to send to an alternate email address because I didn't have one set up at the time. How can I get past this point?

I recently purchased Icloud match and am having a variety of issues. I have a PC and first off, several of my playlists have completely disappeared. Currently, the only songs from my playlists that appear on my Iphone 4 are songs purchased from Itunes.

Most of the music in my library is downloaded from prerecorded cd's to an external drive. In many instances, only certain songs from the same album will sync. I tried to convert the files to apple supported files when I see slashes and exclaimation points. The seemed to be converting and syncing to Icloud, but then they would be back to where they started the next time I turned on my computer. It appears that as much as 3/4 of the music I want to send to Icloud/match is unable to sync. What's even more frustrating is that I can no longer sync directly from computer to my phone, several of my playlists I had to recreate, and most of the music in these playlists will no longer play on my comuter. Help!

Hi Bill of NJ,
If you are only seeing part of your content on your new computer with Home Sharing (for example, new purchases automatically downloaded with Automatic Transfer), you may need to manually transfer the remaining files via Home Sharing. You may find the following article helpful:

How can I restore my contacts, when I have two phpnes on one account? In icloud are the contacts of the first phone, and in my computer is the back up of my second phone

How can I restore my comtacts from pc back up when I do have two phones with one account?the i cloud has contacts from one of the phones, and the pc back up from the other?

Hi Silky-Milky!
If I understand your question correctly, you are attempting to merge your contacts from your previous phone's backup into your iCloud account, then go back to using your new phone as normal, with the new merged database of contacts. I have an article that can tell you how to do exactly that:

Can I have more than one iCloud email address and if so how do I create it

I have multiple businesses and would like to create a second iCloud email. Is that possible and if so will it sync to my previous one or can I sync it on the Iphone? Thank you

You can add up to three 'email aliases' to your present account - 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.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.

Alternatively you can create a new Apple ID and use it to open a new iCloud account which you can sign into in System Preferences (or Settings)>Mail, Contacts and Calendars. This secondary account can sync data between its own online account and your Mac, though it cannot use PhotoStream. Data entered in one account won't appear in the other online, though both appear in alongside each other on your Macs or devices.

How can I remove my very old Apple ID from my Iphone 4S. The old ID is still staying on my mobile but that email doesn't exist anymore. I cant rest my mobile as everytime i tried it asks ID password which I don't remember.

Hello mushysun,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you did not sign out of your Apple ID on your iPhone before creating a new one, then you will need to sign back in with your previous Apple ID and then sign out. If you do not remember your password and do not have access to the email account, then you can reset your password by using the security questions.
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
Have a great weekend,
