I have an iPhone under my parents account. Now that I have my own, I would like to change the Apple id on the phone to my own (new) account. If I do so, will I lose all of my apps, music, contacts, etc?

Hello oshalaby,
To get it to your new Apple ID, you would need to change it back to your old on so you can turn off Find My Device and turn it off. Once that is done, change it back to what you are currently using now. Take a look at the article below for more information.
If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
http://support.apple.com/en-us/TS5223
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
Regards,

I would like to change the Apple ID which is existing in my computer.

I am using a Mac Book Pro with a Retina Display. The Version number is 8.0.2
Whenever i would like to update the new versions of iPhoto and iMovie, it asks for an Apple ID and password. However I have an Apple ID and password which is working properly in other Apple devices, but there is and existing Apple ID in this computer with a faded color which I don't know the password or cannot erase it either. I cannot enter my Apple ID in this menu at same time cannot erase the existing Apple ID which is not mine. There is only one option there ( Forgot Password) I tried this option many times but it isn't related to that Apple Id which currently located in my computer.

You need to delete and redownload those applications. On a Mac, doing this won't affect their data, but it should be backed up anyway.

I would like to change the iCloud apple ID on my iPad

I would like to change the apple ID associated with the icloud settings on an ipad. Running ios8 and when I go into settings the apple ID tied to iCloud isn't editable and won't let me delete it to set up a different one.

Most excellent! Glad you got the one you want signed in now

Hi Apple Team, I would like to change the iCloud account on my iPhone, however it says I must 'delete the account' before doing so? Does this mean that I delete the entire existing account, or just delete it from my phone specifically?

Reboot, hold the option key down as soon as you hear the chime. When the Boot Manager appears select OSX instead of Windows.

Sign out from Find My Phone in iCloud, and sign out from your Apple ID in Settings/iTunes & App Store
Then setup as a new phone with iTunes and when your Daughter sets it up for the first time she can add or set up her own Apple ID.

I would like to change the font size (make it larger) in the Finder SIDEBAR

I would like to change the font size (make it larger) in the Finder SIDEBAR in Leopard.

I could also use a larger font in the Finder side bar. Sceen resolutions increase and systems fonts get accordingly smaller...
Well, if you normally use the lowest resolution, then yes.

Also it CAN be done in iMovie 08, why isn't it possible with other Apple apps?
I can't answer that question. We don't work for Apple here, we're all just plain users who contribute our time, but you can send Mac OS X Feedback

With green chroma concept, I removed the green background, now the green background is seen black. I don't want to have any other background clip, but I would like to change the background black to white. Please help me.

If you want the whole of the project background to be white, you can change the colour in FCP X preferences.
If you just want white for a section or clip, use a custom Generator from the Generators Library and change it to white in the Inspector.

My iphone 5 using other account, now i would like to change another apple ID. May i know how to change it?

sir,
im using iphone 5 & using other apple ID, but now, i would like to change another apple ID on my phone. may i know, how to change it & what is the procedure?

Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores. Tap on the Apple ID, choose to sign out, then sign in with a different Apple ID.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Do the same thing there.... Or, I think you may have to 'Delete Account', but choose to keep the data on the phone.
