Icloud has old apple account

I have an Iphone, and Icloud has an old Apple ID that I have no access to the email account any longer.
How do I get this changed>

If the old ID ("email acccount") is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go 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.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account 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 and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    You can not merge accounts.
    Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

  • I need to know how to delete an old apple account and to create a new account because i forgot some related information

    i need to help to delete an old apple account and to reate a new account because i forgot some related information for the old accounts

    If you have iCloud and/or iTunes accounts just sign out of them (however iTunes Store purchases cannot be transferred to a different account). You can create a new ID at http://appleid.apple.com - you will need a different non-Apple email address.
    However if you've forgotten the password to the original account, go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com; click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'

  • How do i sign out of an old apple Account so i can use my new account

    How do i sign out of an old apple account so i can begin using my new apple account

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

  • How do I delete my old apple account,it's not accepting my birthdate either?

    How do I delete an old apple account?  For some reason it's not accepting my birthdate information!  Thank -you!

    OK that's what Ithought you were talking about.
    You can't actually delete an old Apple ID. You just sign into the new ID to use that one. Your old ID must be popping up because you used it in the past to purchase content with it. You cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another Apple ID. You have to continue to use the old ID if you want to update content that was used to purchase with that ID.
    Did you sign into your new account in the settings and you can't stay signed in?

  • I changed my email address on one of my old APPLE accounts and want to merge my accounts together, how can I change my email address on my old Apple account?

    I changed my email address on one of my old APPLE accounts and want to merge my accounts together so I can get all my songs!!  My computer crashed and I'm tryng to change everything over to my mac via my ipod classic and just Transfer old files.  It's ejecting my disc (ipod) so I figured I could just change my old Apple ID to be one with my new one.
    how can I change my email address on my old Apple account?

    There is no way to merge two Apple IDs as all purchases made with each account are always tied to those accounts.
    All you can do to each account is change the email address for each one but they can't have the same email address.

  • If someone has my apple account and password, would they be able to read my text messages also?

    I know that if someone has your apple account and password, they would be able to track where you are, but are they also able to check your messages?

    No.

    If you are getting the message above it's because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC by signing with your Apple ID.  You can only sign into an existing iCloud account on a PC.  You first have to create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

  • Can I send iTunes gift to a recipient email address which is non apple account email (I.e. Comcast or Gmail) as long as the person has an apple account and device to redeem it for use.

    Can I send iTunes gift to a recipient email address which is non apple account email (I.e. Comcast or Gmail) as long as the person has an apple account and device to redeem it for use.

    Yes - gifts are sent to an email address not to the iTunes account, the email has a redemption code in it which the recipient then redeems. The recipient needs to be in the same country as yourself, he/she won't be able to redeem it if their account is in a different country's store.

  • Old apple account keeps popping up

    an old apple account keeps popping up, when I want to download a new app. 
    i tried to reset the ipad, but that didn't work.  i'm needing the pop up to reflect
    my account.  help is very much appreciated !!!!  thanx michelle

    Yes, we have been able in the past.  And yes I have restored to factory settings, it now accepts the new apple account but the pop up still points to old account. 
    You see  I bought the ipad for my hubby and set it all up for him.  Then last year I changed email accounts, and told him that now is the time for him to create his new apple account with his own password etc... He never did this and now a year later, here I am trying to fix his ipad because he finaly seeked help.  I created a new apple account, with of course a new pw, the ipad recognizes this but the pop up reflects the old account.  The pop up reflects the old apple account and password and sends email to old email account.  Last night I called the old email provider and I can have the old email reactivated for a fee of course.  I think that I will go that route since there doesn't seem to be a solution for this.  I have found many others who have had and still have this same problem.  Definately something that needs to be looked at by Apple, we need to be able to update the pop up, I have read about people purchasing old ipads etc.... and cannot remove the previous owners off the pop up.  THANX for your help, I really appreciate your efforts!  michelle

  • My iPod touch is not connecting to iCloud account, under iCloud settings has old email account and username that I have since updated and are working correctly on my iPad, any idea how I can reset this?

    My iPod touch is not connecting to my iCloud account, under iCloud settings it  has my old email account and username that I have since updated and are working correctly on my iPad, any idea how I can reset this on the iPod or otherwise? This old account info keeps coming back on my iPod and messing up access to my apple account and now the icloud. last time a system restore needed to be done to fix it....

    It won't give me the option to sign out of the old account, it's that light grey color that you can't click on. And since it has the old email address that it's telling me to go into to verify the account, I can't actually change it... I'm stuck

  • I cannot utilize my iCloud account. I had an old Apple account. I had to reset to a new Apple Account. The iCloud will not accept either Apple Account

    I have an iPad Air that I bought recently. I cannot set up the iCloud account.  I had an old Apple password.  I had to reset the password.  Now iCloud will not accept
    either paseword. How can I fix this?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    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.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • I changed my Apple ID and password with help from Apple support staff, but iCloud still has old Apple id and won't accept the old Apple id password.  How do I change iCloud id to the new Apple ID?

    How to change iCloud ID to my newly created Apple ID?  The old password for the old iCloud ID no longer works so I cannot delete the old iCloud account to create a new iCloud account because the old password no longer works  .... can't turn off FINE MY PHONE.

    Can't do this as I cannot sign in using my old APPLE id as no password(s) will work with that old id - therefore I cannot get the other screens to perform the rest of the steps recommended.  Any other suggestions?

  • Our family has one apple account, but several devices linked to it.  How do I sync my device (Ipad) without getting all my 11 year old daughter's apps on it?

    I need help syncing my Ipad.  Our family uses one apple account for multiple devices... how do I sync my ipad without getting all my daughters apps?  How do I know which of my apps need to be synced to the computer?

    Simply select only the apps that you want to sync to your iPad and then sync. You can control what syncs to the iPad. You may be best served by turning off auto sync.
    Launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says - Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically. Click OK.
    Connect your iPad to the computer.
    Launch iTunes
    Click on the iPad name on the left side under the Devices heading.
    Click on the Apps Tab in the iTunes window on the right.
    Click on only the apps that you want to sync in the list of apps under the Sync Apps heading.
    Make sure that the Sync Apps heading is checked.
    Click on Apply in the lower corner of iTunes.
