Manage your Apple ID. You will need to sign in with the typo email and then you can change it.
If you don't know the typo email you can use the link to start over with a new Apple ID
Hope that halps

Someone is using my personal email address for their apple ID and I'm sick of it! I can't sign up for my own itunes account or anything using MY OWN email address. My email address is my property, not theirs.

Someone is using my personal email address for their apple ID and I'm sick of it! I can't sign up for my own itunes account or anything using MY OWN email address. My email address is my property, not theirs.
I'm using their account and will continue to reset their password and settings until they either get the message or Apple do something about it and disable or migrate their account so that I can use MY OWN email address for my own purposes.
I don't want to be informed about Apple products and services for someone else on my email account.
I want to be able to use it MYSELF for iTunes
All I am asking you to do is migrate their apple ID to their alternate email account settings and free up my email address so that:
A. I can use it and B. I stop getting messages about their account history.
Either that or just cancel their account as they have no right to use my personal details.
Yes I could set up a new email address but WHY THE **** should I? I've been using this email account for years for personal stuff, it's not mu fault if someone can sign it up as an AppleID without me being able to confirm their sign up process!
Your move Apple, make it count.

Hi Sister Kate,
If you change the Apple ID you are using on an iPhone or other iOS device, there are several places you need to change it on the device. See this article -
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

I recently changed my email address for the Apple Id and it was accepted but now when the App store comes up it still shows my old email address and no password will work. iCloud and Facetime are fine. Don't know why it stays there or how to alter it.

1. Sign out of old ID
2. Sign in with new ID
Settings>AppStore>Apple ID

Welcome to the Apple community.
Once you have created a rescue address, you cannot delete it, nor can you change it to the same address as used by your ID. There are numerous providers you can get additional email addresses from, such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Google etc etc.

My stupid husband put in the wrong email address for his apple id and I can't figure out to change it so that we can all sync?

My husband put the wrong email address as his apple id and now I can not change it?

What exactly do you want to sync? Ideally, each phone should use its own Apple ID to keep contacts, messages, etc. separate. You wouldn't want to share your contacts and have him accidentally delete one off of his phone which would remove from yours as well.
If you want to share apps, you can do that by having him log out of iTunes & App Store and logging in with your ID on that app only.

I changed the email address for my apple id and now I cannot sync the contacts and calendar with my iphone

It is crazy but in the apple store they set up the icloud for me and then I started sync the iphone against the icloud and i had some photos in streaming because they recommended to do like that. After that, the space got not enough and they asked for more more to increase the space, so I decided to come back to the previous method and sync my iphone with itunes via usb. Well, the email address that i had for my apple id became unavailable so i had to create a new account this time with gmail and since then, i cannot sync my iphone. I have done it today and i have lost my contacts and the calendar is no ,onger sync. I am using outlook to manage my mail and when I look for the i cloud it asks me for the old email address which no longer exists and does not match with the current one.
Can anyone help me?

Nevermind, I figured it out!

Apple ID and PW changes create problems on IPad ICloud

I changed my Apple ID and password on the apple website but changing it on Ipad to connect with Icloud using new parameters seems to be a problem, will not accept new pw for deleting old account. Please help

Of course not. You need to first enter the old password to disconnect the old Apple ID.
What is it you are trying to do? Why do you need a NEW Apple ID instead of just changing your current Apple ID to use a new email address for example?
I hope you know changing your Apple ID - at least for iTunes - will remove your ability to use any apps that you have purchased using the old ID.

I used to use an old e-mail address as my apple id and I changed it ages ago and everything seemed fine but since I've updated to the new software it's showing my old e-mail as the apple id for iCloud and now I can't log in. Can someone please help?!

I've tried to go into manage my account it only has my current e-mail address and I can't click forgot password for the old apple id because that e-mail is no longer active.
I hope that makes sense..

Do a backup.
Try System Preferences/iCloud and sign out. Then sign in with your new Apple ID.

How do I unverify an alternate email for one Apple ID and then use it for another Apple ID?

So I need to use my email address for another Apple ID and when I enter it, it says that its already verified when I deleted it from my other Apple ID. Does anyone know how I unverify that email address???? Please help!!!

Hey, try these steps:
Go to My Apple ID.
Select Manage your Apple ID and sign in.
Scroll down to check if there are alternate and additional email addresses
Delete or remove those email addresses
Hope this helps.

After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.

How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id?

Hi there
How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id? My original email address is associated with my previous employers.
When I send email from my Macbook, it seems as if I still work there, which is a problem.
I would like to use the email address that I created for my iPad.
When I login with my appleid (for my macbook) I keep getting the old company one, not the new one.
Is there any way of resolving this? I
Thanks
Kelvin

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Providing you aren't trying to change you Apple iCloud email address you can make changes at My Apple ID

I am being asked to verify my Apple ID. When I enter the password I get the message it is wrong. It says the e-mail address is already verified for another Apple ID and then it says it is sending an e-mail to my e-mail account that I then never receive.

This is most likely caused by an iCloud sign up (which forces you to use an email address as Apple ID).
Here's the workaround fix I found after some online research:

I cannot access my old email address anymore, however I have used it for my apple ID and now I want to delete it because the account has never been verified in the first place so my password for it doesn't work. What do I do?

I cannot access my old email address anymore, however I have used it for my apple ID and now I want to delete it because the account has never been verified in the first place so my password for it doesn't work. So when I want to download apps I have to sign in with apple id but I can't so I made a new one, However I can't seem to be able to delete the old one. What do I do?

You can't merge Apple IDs. You also can't cancel (delete) and existing ID, you can only choose to stop using it.
If your old ID was compromised and you can no longer access it, you'll have to contact Apple for assistance. Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then then 'Apple ID account Security’.

I'm trying to create a new ichat Acc because for some reason the old one is not working, so I go to Create an Apple ID and start creating a new apple ID, when I submit the Acc it tells me that my Email address is already verified for another Apple ID and thats the only email address I have... What can I do?

There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's. Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.
