I mant to make my rescue email my primary email and delete my current primary email, How do I do that?

I just want to make my rescue email my primary email and delete the current primary email.  How do I do that?

You will first need to remove it as your rescue email address, which you can do via the Password And Security section of your account on http://appleid.apple.com : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5620
After you've done that log out of that site, and then either log back in and try putting it as your primary email address, or you can do it by logging into the account via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone

  • HT5312 Is it possible to make a rescue email for an iTunes account that is currently in use? If it is how do I do it?

    If you know the answers to your security questions then steps 1 to 5 half-way down the page that you posted from will take you to a screen where you can add one.
    If you don't know their answers then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.

    When they've been reset you can then use those steps to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • HT5312 How do I get to the place were you make your rescue email?

    I need to change my security questions but I need to create a rescue email how do you do that?

    You correctly answer two of the questions. If you can't, you need to ask Apple to reset them; ways of contacting Apple 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.

  • Is there a way to make a rescue email address without calling apple support?

    I see lots of questions about rescue emails etc. I am having problems with security questions as well I don't remember ever making those security questions either. So I am wondering of there is a way of making a rescue email address without calling the apple support team in which I do not wish to go through a whole bunch of people taking hrs to actually get it done , my dad has had experience with this before and isn't happy with calling them either because he has to recall so many times and go through the process over and over again so. Is there a way with out calling them?

    This only leads me to calling apple support to change things ,in which I wish to not do so, I have money on my account in which I can't use because of these security questions in which I did not put up and when I made this account on iCloud it did not give me the chance to make a rescue email. Thus leading me to where I am now.

    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions), or you aren't receiving the reset email to that account (and you've checked the spam folder on it as well as the inbox), then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.

  • HT204380 i have a mac book pro and a i-pad 2. both of the devices have the same apple id and same mailing adress. if i want to make a face-time call from my mac book to i-pad 2. how can i do that?

    i have a mac book pro and a i-pad 2. both of the devices have the same apple id and same mailing adress. if i want to make a face-time call from my mac book to i-pad 2. how can i do that?

    You have to add another email address on one of the two devices that you can use as the "You can be reached for FaceTime at" contact address and then remove/uncheck the Apple ID email address as the contact address on that device. The way you are currently setup is like to trying to call yourself on your on phone - from your own phone.
    Using the iPad as the example go to Settings>FaceTime>You can be reached for FaceTime at>Add another email address. Then add a working email address in the next window. Apple will verify the email. Go to the inbox of that email account, read and respond to Apple's email in order to complete the verification process.
    Go back to Settings>FaceTime>Uncheck the Apple ID email address and make sure that the new email address is checked/selected (you will see it being verified again) and that new email address will be your contact address for the iPad.
