To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, 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 iPhone on your device, 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.

Icloud is not updating on all my devices

icloud is not updating my appointments on all my devices

Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Documents & Data, is Use Cellular Data turned off? If so, and if you have wifi off, then there's no way to communicate.

ICloud is not updating my iMac desktop. Laptop, iPad and iPhone are fine but the desktop remains static.

iCloud is not updating my desktop with new iCal and Contacts updates. How do I get the information to download from iCloud to this device?
The desktop is OS X 10.7.5. My MacBook Air is OS X10.8. iPad and iPhone are iOS6. My Apple ID on the OS devices is different from the 2 computers in that they use a .me address. Thanks to anyone who can help.

OK Vicky, good clues...
See if this helps...
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over. See if there are duplicates, should be one for Incoming & one for Outgoing.
Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

That screen indicates that you need to connect the iPhone to your computer with the USB cable and restore from iTunes

Calendar not updating across devices

My calendar isn't updating across different devices using iCloud. It appears that all settings are correct and I'm using the same account on each device. Photos update just fine.

First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Calendar not Updating on devices of subscribed members

I run a calendar off my Macbook Pro and have multiple people subscribed to the calendar. The calendar is not updating on their devices when I create a new event, but syncing up fine on my devices (I have it running thru iCloud). Any ideas why the people subscribed to the calendar aren't getting the updates on the calendar?

Not sure why there's a lag in updating. You can force your calendar to refresh by opening the calendar app, tapping Calendars at the bottom to show the calendars view, then pulling down and releasing on the center of the screen.
You might want to update to iOS 8.1 which was released today (available over the air by going to Settings>General>Software Update). That may help.

ITunes match not updating on devices

Help. Please.
itunes match not updating. iTunes on computer has appropriate songs/ albums. But on iPhone and ipad changes do not appear. I have tried holding down shift key when turning off iTunes Match, signing out of iTunes Store, then quitting itunes. I then start itunes, sign into store, then turn on iTunes match and it goes through lengthy scanning, hours, and I am left with the matching page showing the three stages of iTunes Match greyed out, with a button offering me to start it again. Re
i have repeated this process several times, switching off iTunes Match on devices before starting iTunes Match on compute - same problem. I have changed albums while iTunes Match is on, as recommended by apple's webpage.
please advise on how to update iTunes match so this change on computer also happens on devices. Thank you in advance

Dear Jim
thank you so much. Thank you for your quick reply, sorry I did not respond sooner, but I wanted to make sure it worked before replying, hence I had to wait for iTunes Match to do its thing.
You are are a genius Jim, so a big thank you.
So in a nutshell for all, Jim's solution works for those who have gone over their 25,000 limit by mistake, and are unable to update match, you can with Jim's solution, delete stuff in the iTunes Match cloud and in effect have your original iTunes Match library as you want it.
Thank you Jim

Update Photoshop CC6 via Creative Cloud - errors - PS settings not updated - updates not done

I have now tried for hours to update the Photoshop CC6 version via Creative Cloud application and it fails permanently.
At the beginning both applications (Bridge and Photoshop) failed (error U44M1|210). Installing the manual patches and Camera Raw 8 manually helped in the case of Bridge and Photoshop (partially).
Now there are 2 more elements which are not updated and fail
a) CSXS Extensions 4.0.2 update.
b) Dynamic Link Media Server - Update 7...
With this strange issue I got another strange behaviour of Photoshop.
I cannot update my settings in Photoshop and even not doing so, it shows - as soon as I close the program - the following message (Sorry, in German):
"Die Voreinstellungen konnten nicht gespeichert werden, da die Datei gesperrt ist, Sie nicht über die entsprechenden Zugriffsrechte verfügen bzw. ein anderes Programm auf die Datei zugreift. Heben Sie den Schutz der Datei mit Hilfe des Befehls ‘Information’ im Finder auf, damit Sie die entsprechenden Zugriffsrechte erhalten. Sollte das Problem weiterhin bestehen, speichern Sie das Dokument als andere Datei ab bzw. duplizieren Sie es im Finder."
It looks like the program cannot save any "setting" files on my machine (MacMini, OS 10.9, 16GB) and tells me always that I would not have any permission to write on the file. Which file????? If I would know which file I could at least change the permission settings there. Does anyone know which file in which folder need to be changed?
Thanks
Marc-Oliver

Plays and Last Played Not Updated from Device

When I play a song from the cloud from one of my iOS devices, the Plays and Last Played fields are not updated.
This does work, however, when a song is played from a computer.
This is a deal breaker for me.
Bruce

Yup, I agree. It's looking like the only really useful thing is that iTunes Match managed to get a whole mess of my songs updated to 256Kbps versions. Not all, but a whole bunch.
Still, I rely on smart playlists with Last Played being accurate to figure out what to listen to. And, it keeps my playlist from being stale or repetitive.
I can't wait for this to be changed.

ICloud calendar not updating

Hi all, hope someone can help an old Mac user who's lost in the cloud ... iCloud that is. My freelance work life requires I keep iCalendar and Address book updated constantly. However, entries I make on my home Mac are not showing up on the on the iCloud website, a major problem. I don't understand why they are not updating. Any help would be hugely appreciated.

I'm here because I'm having problems, too, but as a suggestion can you change your iCloud ID to match your Apple ID or set up a new iCloud ID that matches? Believe me, I'm no expert here; just a thought.

Pages/Numbers docs on iCloud but not on iOS devices?

Hello,
I had been using Pages and Numbers for some time and when iCloud came out I synced all my existing documents from both. Currently, they reside normally in iCloud (since I can access them from iCloud.com) but they are no longer on either my iPhone or iPad. I cannot figure out how to get them back either.
My workaround so far has been to download them onto my Macbook from iCloud.com and then put them into iTunes...But everytime I do this the setting for using iCloud (Settings - Apps - Numbers/Pages) changes from Yes to No automatically.
I'm kind of stuck at this point. I've even tried redownloading Pages to see if I would get prompted to pull stuff from iCloud back onto the iOS device.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Same issue here.
My workaround:
Email the documents/spreadsheets to myself
Open email on the other device.
Click the attachment.
Select "Open with Numbers (or Pages)".
I would prefer that they sync automagically.

HT4865 my apple ID changed but my icloud did not update with the info - how do i get icloud to use my new apple ID

We updated our Apple ID's with our new email and home address etc... with no issues. But.....icloud won't update and I can't figure out how to edit it. It shows the old Apple ID info.

We also changed email address, deleted account and added new one in. I thought everything was working, calenders, photo stream, contracts. Then when I went to email a photo from the photo library that had been streamed in through old email address, It showed Icloud still sending from old address with no way to change it. I'm afraid if I delete the account and try to add it in again, I Cloud wont let me; or I will have to chnge everything again (nightmare) This is on an IMac.

Ipod touch generation 2 ~ I can't send or receive emails from my gmail account. I have gone back to factory settings and updated the device. It will not take my password.

I have not used this Touch iPod for quite some time and thought I would use it for collecting email when I am out. I have wasted a lot of time trying to get this to work and now wonder if the 2nd generation is too old to send and receive email.

I am using imap on all my other devices. I use a Google domain email address. The only divice I have that will not sync is this older generation iTouch. The version without the camera. Model PB528LL. I know my email address is correct and the password works everywhere else.
