I want to create a new apple id with another email, It says email already in use...

I want to create a new apple id with another email, It says email already in use, but there is no account with that email( i use it for facetime and get apple offers) What do i do?

You can check to see if it is associated with one of your IDs by following this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625, and entering the email address at step 2 to see if it finds an ID owned by you.  If it doesn't, contact the Apple account security team and have them check into it by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Apple ID account security.

  • My usual iCloud account has been locked out.  I tried the email link - didn't receive an email.   So I created a new Apple ID with another email but now I can't access my other Apple ID Mail, etc..

    My usual Apple ID/iCloud account has been locked out.  I tried the email link - didn't receive an email.   So I created a new Apple ID with another email but now I can't access my other Apple ID Mail, etc..  How do I get the Apple ID I want to use working again?   Help. 

    Hi JkeeneSoldano,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    To regain access to your Apple ID, try to reset your password using one of these methods:
    Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
    Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
    Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
    From:
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    If you need to use the email verification method but don't receive the reset email, see this link for more help:
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support

  • How do I remove iMessage "sign in" box from my IPad "messages" screen. I don't want to create a new Apple ID but I can't close this box.

    When selecting the "Messages" sceen on my IPad, the iMessage "Sign in" box appears on the screen. I don't want to create a new Apple ID but I can't close this box which is preventing me using the normal text message screen. How do I get rid of this sign-in box?

    Yeah i have that same type of problem, sorta.
    I made my apple id today on my ipad 2 ios 6 update and i went straight to logging in on iMessage, i logged in, after reading i clicked next, i got the email to verify on my ipod so i verified but as it was still verifying on the ipad it went right back to the log in box. this repeated itself over and over, help?

    I forgot my security questions and don;t want to create a  new apple id what can I do?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them 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.

  • Wanting to create a new Apple ID but says the email is unavailable/ maybe used already

    I Am trying to create a new Apple ID but the email I am trying to use is unavailable or used already.  How is that possible?  Is it because I have that email in
    my phone as well as my email I use for my Apple ID?

    Is it because I have that email in
    my phone as well as my email I use for my Apple ID?
    So you're already using this particular email for your current Apple ID programed into your phone?
    Every new Apple ID must use a unique email, you can't create 2 Apple ID's with the same email account.

  • How to create a new Apple ID on another device?

    I have given my daughter my old iPhone.  I purchased a new one.  Now we have the same Apple ID! Ugh! Lost all my contacts because she backed up to "our" iCloud account. How do I create a new Apple ID on her phone?

    First, the Apple ID needs to be a verified email address. Once you have an email address for her, that can be verified, go here & create the ID:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/createAppleId
    Then on her phone, turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account...Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. You'll be prompted to keep the data on the phone or delete it. It she wants to keep it, select keep. Then, setup iCloud using her new Apple ID, turn on iMessage & Facetime.
    This will have no affect on the ID you both share for iTunes content, & you can continue to do so.

  • I want to create a new Apple ID and delete my old one, what about my purchases?

    I've purchased some subscriptions that I did not mean to and I would not like them to show up on my iTunes purchase history. While I know we can hide the app from saying purchased, the subscriptions seem to be under my account permanently, even the expired ones. I've looked endlessly and there is no way to make an expired subscription "disappear" from my account, so I am willing to delete it and create a new one. My concern is all the music, movies, and apps I've purchased. How do I treat these? Will they sync to my phone seamlessly?

    You can't delete an account, only iTunes Support can potentially do so, but you would lose all of the account's purchases if they do so - all downloads are tied to the account that downloaded them, they cannot be transferred to another account.
    If you do create a new account then there are instructions on this page of how to do so without giving credit card details : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method.

  • I want to create a new apple account and switch my iPod Touch over to it. How can i do this without erasing all of the data?

    I have an iPod Touch (4th generation) and found i would like to switch it over to a new apple account. Is there anyway for this to happen without deleting any data?

    Yes, just go to Settings>App and iTunes store and sign out of existing ID and sing into the other.
    The Apple ID is also used in:
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>iCloud
    - Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Note:
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • HT5622 I am trying to update the apps on my MacBook with my Apple ID, the one I created long ago when I got my first iPhone. Although when I first got my new MacBook I created a new apple ID with a email address I hardly ever use, and a password I can't r

    Yes, well I ignoratly created a second Apple ID when first setting up my MacBook, and when I go to the "My Purchases" in my Mac App Store, and it shows the apps I've uninstalled, and the apps that are available to update. When I tap on the update icon/text I get a drop down notice, telling me that I have other apps that can be updated using the Apple ID I used to purchase the *apps* in Mac App Store. As far as I am aware  I have only used ONE  Apple ID to purchase Mac Apps, iPhone Apps, and iTunes. I have tried MANY, MANY times to find my second Apple ID. I've gone through and used every email address I making sure non of them were my second Apple Id's . SO is there anyway that I can update my apps using my main apple ID?
    Best Regards,
    Anna Grace Y.

    What are the names of the apps?
    So you are saying that you only ever used the old Apple ID to buy content on the iPhone and the Mac? You never used the new Apple ID to buy content for the Mac?

  • When I create a new apple ID with a different email, it tells me that this email is already in use (I have never signed up for an itunes account prior to this). I then clicked on the "forgot password" link, but I never got an email. What do I do now

    To clarify: the apple ID I am currently using was created to have a temporary account.

  • When I got my mac i created a new apple ID with a new email.  all of my iTunes are on my old ID/password which I do not remember.  how do i access?

    My old computer was a PC and my old email no longer exists so to reset the password the pasword email would be sent into oblivion.  help!  I want those songs - many of which I paid for!

    Not long ago iTunes changed the security by asking three personal questions AND filling in an alternate email address. Did you?
    Also, hopefully, you de-authorized the old PC before you gave it away...

  • Is there anyway i can create a new apple id with my outlook email

    somebody help me before this ****** me off!

    Texting to and from Canadian cell #'s is included in your unlimited texting plan.  CALLING is another matter, and the info is here:  http://www.verizonwireless.com/wcms/global/international-long-distance-and-messaging.html?country=canada
    Looks like you can get 1000 monthly minutes to and from Canada for $15, and the texting is unlimited.

  • If I create a new Apple ID and I delete the old one, Will I lose my purchases and data?

    If I create a new Apple ID and I delete the old one, my books, songs, docs and all the data that my old Apple ID contained including my purchased Apps will appear in my new Apple ID and its associated Icloud?
    I want to create a new Apple ID but do not lose my data and purchases, How could I do it?

    Are you entering your Existing Email Address for which you have Access and also are you Entering the Password which Matches Apple Requirement ?
    Enter the Email Address that you already have (like Gmail, Yahoo, MSN, Live, etc) but you have never used it for creating Apple ID before.
    Passwork Requirement is Minimum 8 Characters, Alpha Numeric and Password should Content atleast 1 Upper Case and 1 Lower Case Letter. You will find the more detail on the same page when Creating Apple Id and iTunes will give you Error if the Password you enter does not match their requirement.
