I lost access to my email account quite a while ago.  I don't remember what password I had on it.  Even though it says everywhere else what my apple id is in the link that comes up you  can't change it

I lost access to my email account quite a while ago.  I don't remember what the old pass word is.  My I cloud account under my email settings is correct.  My phone set up fine, but when I set my ipad up, it comes up with old email address.  In the email settings the icloud is correct.  But it will not let me change it in the part I need to.  It is greyed out.  This is actually for the iphone 5.

If you're running iOS 6, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
