I have the wrong email address in ICloud. How can I change to the correct email address?

I have the same problem. I changed my email address with itunes, & the icloud website knows it too. but the icloud on my iphone still has the old one & wont allow me to change it. I can change the password but the email address is grayed out so I can't change it. I have tried signing out via the store on my phone & back in but it made no difference. Help!! I keep getting error messages about the photo stream ..but I don't know what I can do to correct it. HELP!!!

  • I've bought a student plan but every time I open currently downloaded programms I see an automatically opened window that says I'm using trial version and still have several days to use it. How can I change it?

    I've bought a student plan but every time I open currently downloaded programms I see an automatically opened window that says I'm using trial version and still have several days to use it. How can I change it? It makes me nervous , as it demands serial number, but e-mail i've got from Adobe doesn't contain any serial number or invitation or something like that.

  • I input the wrong Apple ID for Icloud. how do I change the ID?

    I set-up my daughters icloud and input the wrong Apple ID. How do I change this? When I try it is greyed out and will not allow me to access it.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Youll need to delete the account from the device and then change the ID before entering the details again.

  • HT204053 i used wrong apple id at setup how can i change it now

    I was restoring itouch and i used wrong apple id in icloud set up. is there a way i can change it now?

    Settings>iCloud>Delete Account. Choose if you want to delete or keep the data from the wrong ID in your iPhone. If you choose "delete from iPhone" the data will not delete from iCloud server. The add a new iCloud account with the ID you want.
    Maybe you want to change the Apple ID in iMessage and FaceTime to. Go to settings>messages/FaceTime  to sign out and back in with the ID you want.

  • Every time i want to download an app, i have to answer 3 security questions. How can I change this?

    Why do I have to answer 3 security questions everytime I want to download an app?

    The power DVD app is active, and seems to download ok.  You have already deleted the app? 
    I suspect what is happeneing is that a download is in your queue, and is blocking the queue until it completes, thus the message every time you try to do a down load.  It may be failing because while it thinks you have the app, it is not finding it, and doesn't know what to do.  ( sounds like a poorly designed download).
    I think the way around this might be for you to resync with your iTunes, and let it reload the app onto your pad.  Let it complete the download.  Then, if you do not want the app, delete it again from your pad, and if you never want it, from I tunes as well.
    The next time they do an update, you may wind up in the same situation, so if it happens again, until they fix the download routine, you will get stuck again.
    So try the suggestion, and see if this clears it out.
    The other option would be to open your account in I tunes on your computer, let it complete the download there.

  • After I've set-up my iOS device with an Apple ID for iCloud, how can I change the iCloud Apple ID?

       After updating my iPad 2 & iPhone 4 to iOS 5, I set-up each one for iCloud, but inadvertently used 2 different Apple ID's (one me.com and one that I typically use for Apple purchases).  I realize this will prevent the two devices from syncing.  When I try to change the iCloud Apple ID, it is grayed out, and I can't find any way to re-set it on my iPad.  Does anyone know how to re-set this ID so both devices are operating on the same ID?
      I have a second question (though not as pressing as the first).  I'd like to use my me.com ID to sync calendars, contacts, etc., but another ID to sync my Apple purchases (apps, etc.).  This way my wife and I could share apps, but each sync our iPhones and iPads to our own content.  Does anyone know if this type of dual-ID set-up is possible on one device?
       I know there's a lot of confusion out there, but I'm trying to keep in mind that this is a huge upgrade and transition for Apple, so it will all work out, and should be fantastic when it does.  It'll just take a little time to sort out.  Thanks for any suggestions!  -Bob-

    Hi Jeremy,
        That is my understanding.  Clicking "Delete Account" is similar to logging out of iCloud with that account. 
       But your situation is different from mine, as I had been using my @me.com account for "Find My iPhone" only.  I ended up using my @me.com account for iCloud and another account for my Apple iTunes Store purchases.
       That's correct--it will not delete your purchases.  You can still back-up to your Mac with iTunes using the same account you used to purchase your Apple stuff.  -Bob-

  • I have been given my sons iPhone 4 how can I change the ID on it to mine

    i have changed the ID on the app store but don't know how to change the ID on the actual phone

    What you should do is erase the phone, then set everything up using your Apple ID. You don't say what version of iOS the phone is running, but look here: Settings>Messages...if iMessages is shown, turn it off. Do the same with FaceTime & then delete the iCloud account, it it exists: Settings>iCloud. Once you do that: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. When finished, set everything up using your ID.

  • 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'm embarrassed to ask this: when I click to initiate a new email message in the "From" box it automatically chooses the wrong email address (I have three but use one mainly). How can I get the right choice to appear automatically?

    I'm embarassed to ask this: when I click on the new mail icon to write a new email message, in the box "FROM" appears the wrong email address: I have three but mainly use one. How can I correct this so that the right email address appears in the "FROM" box?

    I assume this is Apple Mail. Try this:
    Preferences > Accounts > your-first-account
    Select Outgoing Mail Server of account/name you wish to use and check Use only this server
    Repeat for other accounts.

  • I have updated my iphone 5s to iOS8 but it has my old icloud account, how can i change the icloud email address as i can not get passed this page?? please help :-(

    i have updated my iphone 5s to iOS8 but it has my old icloud account, how can i change the icloud email address as i can not get passed this page??
    I do not know the log in details and no longer have that icloud email address !!
    please help :-(

    That's Activation Lock. You will need to remember the Apple ID and password you used to set up the phone.
    If you can't remember them, you can go to iforgot.apple.com to try to recover the information.
    If you are the original owner of the phone & have proof of purchase, you can try calling Apple to see if they can assist also.

  • Have a wrong email address which keeps popping up as a suggestion rather than the correct one which is in my contacts.  How can I delete this?  iPhone doesn't allow me to get to it to delete it like I can in Outlook.

    I'm very glad that helped!
    It's good you looked in the Manual first. Certainly not everyone does that.
    With Apple products, I've found that not everything is completely documented, but sometimes if you try something that seems like it should work, it actually does work.
    That's how I personally learned about this feature.
    Enjoy your Apple gear!
