Thanks. It changed it on my PC but my ipone 4s still shows my icloud advanced mail is my daughter's. Since it's not highlighted, I can change it. Any idea about this? Yes- I did power down and restart...

    Made new account as per instruction ie [email protected] works fine
    BUT as I want to utilise the money spent on the additional memory it would be great to use the initial account set up as my primary HOWEVER as far as I have tried the initial apple ID CANNOT be changed. Bit confused actually any usefull guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for  Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.

  • I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

    FaceTime: I have a iPad, iPhone, iMac all on the same apple Id/account. Without changing id/email address can I use FaceTime between any 2 of my devices? It works from iPad to iPhone but not the other way??? I would like talk/see my kids if am away.
    Hope you can help.
    I have added a new email address but kept my Id, but I get busy when trying from iPhone to iPad as they are clashing. Like find my iPhone app hence trying to keep them all on one account

    IOS: using facetime http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4319
    using an ipad will use the email address since you can't make a phone call.  see the link.
    Your basically calling/emailing yourself that's why your getting a busy signal.

    My iTunes account is under my @yahoo email address and I became accustomed to my @Me email and now like the idea of the @iCloud email address that was made. My questions are....can I change my iTunes account to my @iCloud name without instead of my @yahoo name without losing my years snd years of purchases ? Can I also create an @Mac address ? ....or is my @yahoo and my @iCloud already recognized as the same by apple and my purchases would already be fine as well as restoring my devices ?

    Your purchases are permanently tied to the Apple ID (account) used to purchase them.  They can't be moved to another account and you can merge accounts.  You can start making new purchases with your iCloud ID if you want, but you will end up with two sets of purchases under two different IDs, adding further complication to your life.
    Also, your @icloud email address is an alias of your existing @me address; emails sent to either address will be routed to the same inbox.  You can decide which one you want to use as your default (as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5441) but you can't separate them.

    I made the fatal mistake of allowing iCloud to handle my @mac mail account.
    I had set this address up with aliases and never had a problem.
    Ever since iCloud has been handling it I have had problems.
    It seams impossible to claim my account back from iCloud. How can it be achieved or has Apple set a booby trap?

    iCloud is the successor to MobileMe. MobileMe shuts down forever tomoorrow.
    If you only want to use the email portion of your previous MobileMe account you can. You do not have to use all the other features of iCloud, just like you didn't have to use all the other features of MobileMe.
    The email account has not really changed at all. Just the server address it comes from.
    The sending emails problem you are having, is this on your Mac in Mail, in webmail at iCloud.com or on your iOS device?
    When it doesn't succeed in sending, what does it do? Any error message?
    What mail server settings are you using in Mail? What version of Mac OS X are you using?

    How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
    Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address.
    You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID.

  • It looks like I currently share an apple id and account with my daughter.  Our phones are synched even alarms go off on each others phones.  I want to have my own account so this doesnt continue to happen.  How do I change my iphone to have its own id?

    It looks like I currently share an apple id and account with my daughter between iphones.  When I set my alarm it goes off on both phones and contacts are synched as well.  How do I seperate from  her account?

    According to Create an AppleID:
    Choose an Apple ID and password.
    Enter your primary email address as your Apple ID. This will be used as the contact email address for your account. Please note that this email address must be verified before you can use certain Apple services.
    And, unless I'm missing something, it appears that you're trying to use your father's e-mail address. Start at Find your AppleID and see if you can resolve the issue.

  • I recently bought an IPhone 4s and activated it through my husbands ITunes account.  Now my husbands email address is on my phone when I attempt to access Apple.  How can I get his email address off my IPhone so I can replace it with mine?

    I recently bought an IPhone 4S.  My husband activated it for me through his ITunes account.  Subsequently, I created my own Apple account.  Here is the problem.  When I attempt to access ITunes or Apple apps my phone still shows my husbands email address and requests his password.  I want to get that changed so it reflects my email address and password but can't seem to do so through the settings mode.

  • I accidentally screwed up my apple id when trying to change my primary email address. Password recovery options and security questions arent working either to restore

    I accidentally screwed up my apple id when trying to change my primary email address. Password recovery options and security questions arent working either to restore. Created a new appleid just to get into forums to ask a question but hesitate to sync itunes and iphone with it as i may lose all purchased music apps etc. can anyone help? i have received no email response frm apple support, it's been over 48 hours

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • Since I updated to iOS5, I now have two (2) different Apple IDs. The first is my original Apple ID (iMac); the second is my primary email address (iPad

    Since I updated to iOS5, I now have two (2) different Apple IDs. The first is my original Apple ID (iMac); the second is my primary email address (iPad & iPod). How can I standardize on just one ID?

    No.
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • I'm having trouble resetting my security questions for my apple ID, i also have forgotten my rescue email address

    im having trouble remembering my answers to my security questions, so i need to reset them. also i have forgotten which email address i used as a rescue email address, need help asap! Also is there a way to cancel a apple id as ive gt a new e-mail address which i have only ever used as a secondary email address for an account but have deleted it from that ID, but it still wont let me register it for a new apple od account

    If you added a rescue email address to your ID, you would see the option to send a reset email to that address as shown here:
    You'll have to go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then  on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Forgotten Apple ID security questions" and click "Continue".
    Also, you access your iCoud data on icloud.com, not itunes.com.  And you can only go to icloud.com from a computer, not an iPad.

  • When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

    When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

    I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.
