ICloud account details setting question

Under Users & Groups > Current User > Passwords > Apple ID = is populated with my iTune ID email address (ie. @me.com).
Under iCloud > Account Details > Apple ID = is populated with my iCloud email address. 
Is this correct or should it be the Apple ID that I use to log into iTunes?  I am confused about this part of the setup.

Either will work as your ID.

    i am trying to set up an airdisk that is connected to my parents airport extreme,
    though next to my iCloud account details i get a yellow status light and can't get a hold on to the airdisk when i'm being connected to a different internet connection..what should i do?
    sharing is enabled and i entered the right account details.
    the disk shows up connected to my parents network, but i want to access it from my place as well

    Encryption wouldn't matter except for Wifi.
    While 10.2 might help, there's not much you can do on the Internet these days with less than 10.4.11

  • HT5621 How do i delete an icloud account and set up a new account with icloud if i dont no the old accounts password

    How do i delete an icloud account to set up a new icloud account if you dont know the old accounts password

    Welcome to the Apple community Amber
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

    Hi there
    I had the same problem and I found this answer to a similar question to ours, so I copied and pasted it for you
    Reset the device by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake button at the same time for approximately 10 seconds.  After it resets the message will be gone and you can go to settings > icloud and put in your password.
    That seems to be a bug with the password alert where it won't respond correctly sometimes.
    Hope this helps

  • HT201441 I have an iPhone that is in 'activation lock' state no iCloud account details.

    Hi,
    I recently restored my iPhone and it's now in 'activation lock' state.
    I don't remember my iCloud account details, and I did not succeed in resetting the password (can't remember security answers).
    I can prove ownership of the device, is it possible for Apple to "unlink" my iPhone from the iCloud account?

    Sorry DrDevil,
    You are going to have to turn off Find My iPhone in order to get past the Activation Lock. Turning off Find My iPhone requires you to know your Apple/iCloud/iTunes password. If you can't remember your password, and you don't know the answers to your security questions, you will have to contact iTunes Support to reset them for you:

    or by email:

  • I need help with changing my iCloud account details

    I have just change my email details on all of my other apple accounts. With this I also change my password but now I can't change my iCloud account details because my password and email are different. Can anyone help....?

    On a computer, you sign out of the current account, then sign back in with your updated credentials.  On an iOS device you delete the existing account then sign back in with the new credentials.

  • My husbands icloud account is set up on my mac but i want my icloud set up so i can view my photo stream

    My husband"s icloud account is set up on my mac but I want to set up mine to view my photo stream from my ipad

    In order to use Photo Stream with your own iCloud account it must be the 'primary account', signed into in System Preferences>iCloud. Presumably that's where your husband's account is signed in, so you will need to sign out, and then sign in your own account.
    You can then sign your husband's account in in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars so that his data appears alongside yours in Contacts, Calendars and so on. You won't be able to receive his photo stream unless he creates 'shared Photo Streams'.

  • HT4436 somehow an additonal icloud account was set up on my iphone and it has become the adminastative account how can i change this

    somehow an additonal icloud account has been set up on my iphone  the problem is it ahs become the adminatrative account so i cant just delaet it  how do i change the main account?

    Are you confirming your POP account is selected as the sending email account before the message is sent?
    And regardless if the email is a new email or is replying to or forwarding an email received by the POP account and cofirming the POP acconut is selected as the sending email account, the message is sent by the Gmail account?
    All message sent by the POP account are sent by the Gmail account?
    If so, delete the Gmail account from your iPad and test if a message sent with your POP account which will be the only email account available with the iPad's Mail app is recieved from your POP account/address.
    If not, something else is wrong or on play that has nothing to do with the iPad.

  • User name in iCloud Account Details is incorrect.

    I migrated to OS5 this weekend. After installing iCloud, I went into System Preferences/iCloud.  I noted that under Account Details, the user name is someone from my contact list.  When I change the name and exit and re-enter, the name appears again. Email/Calendar and contacts are all syncing fine, but this is annoying.  Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Have you ever had a reply on this? My system started doing this a week or so back.

  • My iCloud account was set up using the wrong email, and I can't delete the wronge account

    I had a friend help me set up my phone and she set up my iCloud account for me. But she got my email wrong. Instead of [email protected], it's [email protected] I don't have the password, and I can't delete the iCloud account without the password, but I can't get the password because it sends it to the wrong email. Is there a way to delete the iCloud account without the password?

    Your appleid can be any email address you want, its the e-mail BEHIND it that matters. So if you dont have your verizon email address anymore that should still be ok. Goto http://appleid.apple.com/ and click on manage account, login to your OLD WORKING appleid, and change your email to match your new email address

  • What do I do when my iCloud account is not the same as my Apple ID? And I do not have access to the e-mail address that the iCloud account is set-up under.

    How do I get access to the iCloud account to remove/change it on my phone to match my Apple ID?
    iPhone 4, trying to access iCloud
    cannot remember password
    do not have access to the e-mail that the iCloud account is created under
    have an Apple ID, it is a different e-mail than the iCloud account.
    Went to store and the person there tried a number of things. I tried all manners of possible passwords as well.
    End game: Just want to have an iCloud account I can use on my iPhone.

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).
