I would like to change my primary email to my security email.
My primary email address no longer exists. I only use my security email address now, but it won't let me make it the primary address. Any ways around this?
You can't change it unless you can access the Password & Security section of applied.apple.com. And you can only do that by answering your security questions, or with Apple's assistance:
How to reset your Apple ID security questions.
Go to appleid.apple.com, click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
Log in with your Apple ID and password. (If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email)
Go to the Password & Security section on the left side, and click on the link underneath the security questions that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'. This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
If that doesn't work, or if there is no rescue email link available, then click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.
Next, go to https://getsupport.apple.com
(If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services')
Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
A new page will open.
Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Forgotten Apple ID Security Questions'.
Click the blue 'Continue' button.
Select the contact option that suits your needs best.

I'm getting married and would like to change my iCloud email address or create another one
i'm getting married and would like to change my mobileme/icloud email address to my new name. i've tried to create alias but it keeps saying cannot save address at this time? any tips? can i have 2 icloud email addresses?
Welcome to the Apple Community.

You can change your details at the address above (you can't change your ID if it's a me address).
You can of course create a new account at any time and add it as a secondary to your existing account or use it as a primary account and add your existing account as a secondary account. -
My iCloud email address and my apple ID are different. I would like to change my iCloud to be the same as my apple ID. However I don't know my iCloud password and don't use the email address it belongs to. When I try to change the password, apple brings me to a page to reset my apple ID password (which I know and don't want to change). I have even tried to delete my iCloud account completely to start again but am not allowed without the iCloud password (which I don't have) there doesn't seem to be a place to change the email address of iCloud. What can I do?
This is the answer that I had expected, so in this case you could only change your gmail.com address to another providers email addres e.g. outlook.com, yahoo.com, etc., but you won't be able to change the gmail.com address to a icloud.com email address. Apple just won't let you do that.
Your iCloud account with @icloud.com email address and you Apple ID with gmail.com address are already connected and as I said before, Apple just let you merge this two IDs together. -
I would like to change my iPhoto to a smaller resolution on my Mac desktop. The pictures need to be smaller to email. As is, I can only get 5 pictures per page on AOL. Also, I'm not able to change my Facebook profile picture for the same reason. I didn't have this problem on Windows PC. Can someone please help?
select the photo(s) and export (file menu ==> export) using the variour size options there

I have a new email address and would like to change it in itunes. Can I edit my account with the new address or do I have to create a new account? Will this cause any problems with music/apps that I have already purchased?

HT2623 I would like to change my iCloud email address.
I would like to change my iCloud email address but don't know how.
You can't change it. To get a different address you have two options:
1) Setup a whole new iCloud account under a different AppleID
2) Setup an email alias within your existing account: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a -
HT2623 I would like to change my "@me" email address and keep my apple id as is
would like to change my "@me" email address and keep my apple id as is
You can't change and @me.com email address. You can set up an @icloud.com alias address to use that will receive email in your current inbox, but you can't get another @me.com address at this point (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a). Just be aware that you can't later use an alias address to set up a new iCloud account, transfer it to another account or reactivate it should you ever delete it.

Hi
I would like to change my email but keep my username (hakask). But as this is impossible at Oracle.com (shame on you) I ask you to:
1. Delete my records completely (including any trace of hakask)
2. Notify me by email
so I can create a new account with same username...

Ciber SwedenI signed up for OTN when I was in University - my student email address. I'm unimpressed that I can't change my email either.
Even if the site designers were silly enough to tie login IDs to email, they could still add another email contact field! -
I would like to change my email address around
You can change/remove your rescue email address by (from here) :
1. Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
2. Click "Manage your account"
3. When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
4. Click Password & Security
5. You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
6. After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
7. Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.
You should then be able to change your main email address to be that old rescue email address, and then old your current main address as your rescue email address (I'm not sure whether you will need to log and out and back in between each change)
