    my iCloud mail is used in my old apple id, how can i move my old iCloud mail to my new apple id

    If the old ID 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.

  • We have had to change to a new router but the Macbook Pro still reverts to the old router.  How can this new one be made the default?

    We have had to change to a new router but the Macbook Pro still reverts to the old one. How can we lose this and make the new router the default?

    Go to "Network" under system preferences and choose "advanced"
    On the Wi-Fi tab you can sort the sequence of the preferred connections.
    Then just move your new router to the top of the list.

  • I had to change my apple id but the icloud account still has the old one. How can i change it.

    My apple id was cancelled by apple due to a problem and they suggested me to make a new apple id with a different email adress. Thats what i did, the proble is that the i cloud has the old apple id and i was trying to change it but i cant and the iphone keeps asking me to put de password on the old apple id wich is no longer in use
    The second problem is that when i was trying to change that, something happened and all my contacts were erased!
    I still have them on my ipad, but i dont know what to do, is all a mess with my devices!
    Can somebody help me please?

    With iOS 7 you will have to provide the password for the old ID in order to delete the existing account from your iPad.  If you can't do this, contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Produces & Services>Apple ID>iTunes Store, App Store or Mac App Store>Disabled Apple ID.
    As far as your missing contacts, when you get the password for the old ID reset, sign in with the ID and your new password at icloud.com and check to see if your contacts are there.  If they are, export them as a vCard as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606.  You can then import this vCard to your new account as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605.

  • In my iPad I see my old apple id, how can I change it?

    In my iPad I keep seeing my old Apple id and I cannot find the way to change it as I did with Facetime

    If you mean the ID for iCloud, you have to delete the account, provide the password for the old email when prompted, then sign by in with your new ID.  If you don't know the password, or if it is not accepted, then you'll have to do one of the following:
    If you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. Then 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 and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was.  You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so.  You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • I have an app registered to an old apple ID, how can i update it?

    I have an App I purchased two iPhones ago with an old Apple ID (I don't remember the password).  The App has trasnferred, but I can't update it.  Is there any  way to link it to my current Apple ID and update it?

    No, you will be unable to link Apple IDs, if you are unable to remember the password you will need to purchase it on your current Apple ID.

    What is the model number of the AirPort Express?  A1084
    Look on the side of the Express for this info. The model number starts with an "A" followed by four numbers.
    Are you using OS X (10.6) as you indicate in your profile? YES on my old computer...But I'd like to have it on my 10.8.5 MacPro.
    I can download on my 10.6 then can you tell me how to transfer? That possible?
    Thanks in advance!

    Welcome to the Apple community JB.
    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.

  • App store trying to use my old apple ID - how can I make it use my new one?

    Hope someone can help.
    I've changed my email address and created a new Apple ID. It works fine on my computer (have successfully bought music), works fine on ITunes on my iphone (again, successfully bought music), but the App store insists on my old ID (although of course it won't accept my old password.
    I've logged out and back in again in Settings, and synced before and after successfully making purchases in ITunes but to no avail.
    Any suggestions?

    I am having that exact same problem too. It locked me out of my old account for some reason, so I created a new one. I am able to log on, I recently bought music, and I changed my apple ID in the store settings in my iPhone. However, when I try to update my apps/try to buy new ones on my phone it keeps defaulting to the old one without giving an option to use a different ID. I rebooted my phone and searched for other areas that I might have to enter the new ID, but I can't find anything...

  • ITunes Store shows my old ID when asking for password. How can this be changed?

    Apple requires that an ID be an email address so I changed mine to my email address. The same was changed in my iPad and iPhone settings. But when I try to download something from th Apps Store, iTunes shows my old ID. How can this be changed? Please help.

    So when you changed it, you went into your Apple ID that was not using an email address, and EDITed the Apple ID to the email address, correct? Did you sign out of the iTunes & App Store on your device?

    Hi appledapple1964,
    After changing your Apple ID information, you may need to manually sign out and sign back in on your devices so that they may recognize the update. You may find the following article helpful:
