I just moved and my iPad location is still showing my old location how do I change that?

That's the problem. A WiFi-only iPad uses a database of router locations to determine location. Unfortunately, the mechanics behind this database are a tightly-held secret. Your location may change to the correct one within a week or two or it may take as long as a year! (I'm not kidding.) Incidentally, it will help if you're within range of other routers. Doesn't matter if you pass data through them and also doesn't matter if they're locked. The only requirement is "within range."
By the way, you will find that, if you take your iPad away from your house, it will report your location more accurately.

TS5223 i have change my name and my icloud is still using the old account. how do i change it to my new apple ID on my iphone without deleting the backup already in icloud

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 iDevice, 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, and your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, 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 iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished 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.

Hello Leela24,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have changed your phone number but your iCloud Keychain verification number is still your old phone number. You can edit this phone number in your iCloud settings on your iPhone. Please use the attached article for information on the process.
Get help using iCloud Keychain - Apple Support
Make sure that the correct phone number is associated with your account:
In iOS 8, tap Settings > iCloud > Keychain > Advanced. In iOS 7, tap Settings > iCloud > Account > Keychain. Make sure the phone number under Verification Number is correct. If not, enter another phone number.
Happy holidays,
Joe

HT204053 I changed my Apple ID on all my devices and Apple services but iCloud still shows my old Apple ID. How can I get it to update?

I changed my Apple ID on all my devices and services but iCloud still shows my old Apple ID. How can I get it to update?

I asked the Apple Tech support people and their advice worked for me, it's a setting on the iPad itself. see below.
Follow the below instructions to sign in with your new account name.
1) From the home screen, tap Settings
2) Tap Store
3) Tap Sign Out
4) Tap Sign In
5) Enter your current account name "xxxx" and your password and tap OK.
If you are still unable to change the sign in name on your iPad, please sign into your account on your computer and then sync the iPad so the changes will be updated.
good luck

I gave my wife a new Ipad 2 she gave me hers old one How do I change her name to mine and get access to my emails

I gave my wife an ipad 2 she gave me her old ipad how do I change her detail to me and access my email account on her Ipad
This will be I guess the first of many questions
Thanks

You really should download and read the user guide that roaminggnome gave you the link for in the post above.
If you want to totally start from scratch and erase all of her content go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. This removes everything from the device and returns it to out of the box status. You can also restore the iPad as a new device in iTunes and that erases everything as well. This article explains that process.

If you want to rename the iPad, connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Double click on the text of the iPad's name on the left grey source list of iTunes and you can change the name of the iPad. When you are finished typing in the new name, hit the return key on your keyboard. This article explains it for you.

You will want to delete her mail accounts on the iPad if you have not done so already and set up your own mail accounts. This article will tell you how to do that.

HT3916 When I order a movie from Apple TV for $4.99 I get charged $14.99 and it stays for 30 days instead of 24 hours - how do I change that setting?

Hi - I just got my new Apple TV setup - when I order a movie for $4.99 - I get charged $14.99, and instead of only staying for 24 hours, it now stays for 30 days - how do I change the setting so i'm only getting an overnight movie rental instead of buying it for 30 days?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It sounds as though you have purchased it to me, does it actually say anything about 30 days.
Rentals will stay available for 30 days, but if you start watching them the 24/48 hour timer starts counting down. This is the standard rental model, there is no alternative.

I have a 2011 MacBook Pro and installed Mountain Lion recently and I want to uninstall it to my old software how do I do that?

Please help me out I really don't like the Mountain Lion software, the old one i had was much better and I can't seem to figure out how to get back to the one I use to have.

if you plan on doing an internet recovery install of your old os which is Lion - keep in mind that everything will be erased in your hard drive. your files are gone - unless you have made copies of them in another drive.
you will have to reinstall everything over again. if you're prepared to do that, then click on the link below to learn on how to start internet recovery since booting through your recovery partition will reinstall Mountaln Lion.
Force Lion to Start Internet Recovery.
Now, if you have a early 2011 Macbook Pro - then it came with Snow Leopard - use your install disk to reinstall.

My wife and I chaged phones, I updated the apple ID account info but when I try to update any app or download any app, still appears the old username, how do I resolve that?

I update the info in the pc (itunes). Everytime I the app store ask for my password, the username is incorrect. If I go to the account information, there in the app store, the username is correct. Any advice? Thanks.

You cannot change your Apple ID. You can get a new one if you want, but all of your Apps and media are linked to yoru old Apple ID. And no, Apple won't transfer your old ID purchases to yoru new ID.

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
It doesn't sound like you "changed" your Apple ID, sounds like you created a new one. Bad idea. All content bought with an Apple ID is forever tied to that ID. The ID that bought the content is the only ID that can update the content. Apple does not merge IDs not does Apple transfer content from one ID to another.

When highlighting text and searching with Google, even though my default browser is Chrome, it searches with Safari. How do I change that?

Using iMac and Maverick OS. I have Chrome as my default browser. I find that going to System Preferences/General under default browser, I note that Chrome is chosen as default, yet the browser "above the line" is Safari and Chrome, while checked off is "below the line". In other words, the top listed browser is Safari which is unchecked with a line underneath, even though all the other browsers are listed below the line and only Chrome has a check mark.
When I am on a website and I select words to search in Google, it always searches with Safari instead of Chrome. How do I change that?

Thanks for your response. I think it was my error in that I did not define the problem properly. Indeed Chrome is my default browser. And Maverick does not have a "next line" to default to Google. I can do that in the Chrome settings.
My problem is that when I am in another application.....and it is apparently an application native to Maverick....for example Contacts or Calendar, Reminders, Notes, etc., if I highlight a word or phrase, and right click and choose "search with Google", it defaults to Safari. How do I change that?

I just moved and my iPad location is still showing my old location how do I change that?
