Icloud shows wrong apple id , how do i change it

icloud shows wron apple id , how do i change it to the correct apple id

To change the iCloud ID on your phone go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.  (This only deletes the account from your phone, not from iCloud.)  If you are signing back into the same account with just a renamed ID, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.  Your iCloud data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.
If, however, you are changing to a new iCloud account with a new ID, choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, then choose Merge after signing into the new account and turning on your iCloud syncing to upload your data to the new account.
Before deleting the account, save your photo stream photos to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap all the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).

  • Wrong Apple ID: How do I change the Apple ID prompt when Updating All Apps?

    How can I change the (wrong) Apple ID from the password prompting dialogue when I am already signed in Apple Store with my own ID?
    More details of my problem:
    When I try the Apps' Update-All option in my iPod 4, the password dialogue prompts me with my girlfriend's Apple ID; YET, I AM signed in the Apple Store with MY own Apple ID.
    I have already verified my ID under Settings/Store. I have also signed out, signing back in with my Apple ID, just in case. No problems there, for I DO sign in with my own ID ok. The problem is just the prompt dialogue for password, when I try to use the 'Update All' feature it prompts me for password with her ID, not mine.
    If I go back to Apps and choose the Categories (or Top25) menu, at the bottom of the page, it shows me signed in (my Apple ID). If I try to update one Apps it will do ok. But if I try to Update All it will prompt me for password using her ID, waiting for me to type in HER password. I cannot change the Apple ID on that dialogue (static). If I use my password, it will return the "wrong password" dialogue.
    How can I change the prompt for the Update All? What is going on here that I AM signed in but my iPod prompts me with her ID. My iPod is registered under my Apple ID. I have already tried the Hard reset by pressing Home and Power buttons simultaneously, to no avail. I am also using my own network to go Online. I am also with the latest OS in my iPod and my Mac's iTunes.
    Thank you!
    PS This problem is not occurring in my iPhone 4 (same account) nor my Macs.

    Does not work for me. (My iPhone is not jailbroken.)
    I downloaded a paid app "Imray Marine Rules and Signals v1.5" in the USA with my original account (Account1) then moved countries and needed to create a new Apple account (Account2). If I get 'Info' for the app, it is registered to Account1.
    A new version 1.6 of the Imray app has now been released.
    I have set up only Account1 on the iphone (settings - App Store) and both Account1 and Account2 in iTunes on my computer. My iphone always tells me there is 1 app to update. However, when I try to update this app on my iphone, I get asked for the password for Account2, then the download fails as it says I do not have a paid earlier version to update.
    When I am logged into my computer iTunes as Account1 and try to update it on the computer iTunes, it says there are no apps to update (although my version of the app is definitely the old version).
    When I search for the app in iTune Store, it tells me I have already downloaded version 1.6 of the app and the download button is grayed out.
    If I temporarily delete the app from my iTunes then try to re-download, I am asked to purchase it again.
    If I log into iTunes as Account2 then try to download it, I am asked to purchase it.
    Any ideas? I feel I have tried every option and no success.

  • The App Store on my iPad2 is using the wrong apple ID-how do I change it?

    I can't update any apps on my iPad2 because the store keeps asking for my password on an appleID that is no longer valid.  It was my old comcast email, which I cancelled, and even though I've tried signing out of store, and signing back in with the correct appleID...it still asks for the old comcast one!  My iPhone 4 app store works just fine though.  Anyone have ideas of how I can fix this?
    Thanks in advance for any ideas.
    Jessica

    Open Appstore app, go to "Highlights", scroll down and select "Log in" (or "Sign on", have only german iOS). Then log in with your current ID.

    Thank you

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If your daughters Apple ID is displayed when trying to update apps, that would indicate that the app was originally purchased from her account, in which case you cannot update somebody else's app.

  • I set iCloud up but I have given the wrong email address how do I change it to the correct one?

    I set up iCloud when I got my iPhone 4S but I have just realised I have given the wrong email address how can I change it I put .co.uk and it's .com

    Go to appleid.apple.com, click Manage Your Apple ID, sign into your iCloud account (using the wrong email address), it should prompt you to verify it and allow you to edit your email there. If not, then it will bring you to a screen that will show you your name, your email, and any alternate emails you have. Click the edit button next to "Primary Email Address and Apple ID" and change it to your email.

  • Unread VIP messages counter on iCloud shows wrong numbers

    Hi,
    I have VIP inboxes set up. They appear on my Mac, iPhone and iCloud.com. The unread VIP messages counter on my Mac and iPhone are showing the correct numbers of unread VIP messages. However, the counter on iCloud shows wrong numbers.
    Does anymore have the same experience?
    I deleted the VIP inbox on iCloud.com and re-created it. Then the issue was solved. Some days later, however, it started counting wrongly again.
    Example:
    Peter is a VIP for me.
    1. I receive 2 messages from Peter, so the unread VIP messages counter on my Mac, iPhone and iCloud.com raises to 2.
    2. I read both messages
    3. The unread VIP messages counter on my iPhone and Mac vanished, and so does the general unread mail counter.
    4. On iCloud.com, my general unread mail counter would also be 0 but the VIP unread mail counter would still be 2. The VIP inbox does not show any unread email, tough.
    Best regards,
    Marc

    I've reported this error twice via Apple's iCloud feedback page on the website - http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html
    No solution as yet... but an earlier VIP bug (where, if the same contact sometimes sends as "@mac.com" and sometimes "@me.com", they had to have separate VIP mailboxes) was fixed. (At least, I think it was fixed: if you put all the relevant addresses against the same single contact in iCloud and delete any other instances of the contact with the same address, then iCloud creates one amalgamated VIP inbox for them. But I digress.)
    The mis-count bug has been around since the day VIP appeared - hopefully getting a bit embarrassing for someone on the iCloud team? Maybe someone at Apple reading this?

  • HT204074 I have a different username on my icloud account on my iphone, how can I change it to my apple ID and log in?

    I have a different username on my icloud account on my iphone, how can I change it to my apple ID and log in?  It was from when I initially set up the phone but needs updating but doesn't seem possible.

    Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then set it up using your Apple ID.

  • I have copied over my music file to a new computer and the music shows on itunes but wont play. When I track where the song is located it is reading the wrong information. How do I change this as Edit Preferences has the right location

    I have copied over my music files to a new computer and the music shows on itunes but wont play. When I track where the song is located it is reading the wrong information. How do I change this as Edit>Preferences has the right location?

    Select one of the tracks with a broken link, press ctrl-i to Get Info. Say No when iTunes asks if you would like to locate the track, then look at the Summary tab for the location expects to find the file in.
    Now try to locate the file in question. The two locations should give a clue as to what to do next.
    Here is an example with a file I've deliberately moved from the new layout to the old pre-iTunes 9 layout.
    This means iTunes is expecting to find the file at:
    D:\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music\a-ha\Take On Me\01 Take On Me.mp3
    but it isn't there because I've moved it to:
    D:\iTunes\iTunes Media\a-ha\Take On Me\01 Take On Me.mp3
    which is where it would have lived back in iTunes 8 (though the media folder would have been called iTunes Music back then as well).
    If you can provide the expected and actual locations of a broken track I should be able to suggest the easiest way to resolve things.

  • How do I change the apple id for iCloud on my iPhone4?, How do I change the apple id for iCloud on my iPhone4?

    How do I change the apple id for iCloud on my iPhone4?, How do I change the apple id for iCloud on my iPhone4?

    When you go into iCloud there is an option to delete the account.  The help desk advised me that using this option only deletes it on the phone and not the actual Apple ID.  If you delete it you are given an option to keep content associated with this ID on the phone, which may be a good idea unless you want to completely refresh your phone.
    Once you delete the account, you can then enter a new Apple ID.
    I've just done it and it worked fine, leaving the original Apple ID intact and working on another phone.

    Settings-->Mail-->iCloud-->Account is the normal method however iCloud mail is not working for several of us. The password incorrect notification pops up usually when the servers are down (God forbid we actually get a "server down" notification.)

    my ipad is syncing notes to an old phone with a different apple id how can I change it to sync to the new iphone icloud is off and so is home sharing

    Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
    You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.

    I changed my apple ID, but it won't let me change the ID for icloud on my iPhone. How do I change it?

    You have to go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated credentials.  This deletes the account and your synced data from your phone, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a different account, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes you can use one iCloud account between multiple devices.
    What do you mean 'change the iCloud user name'.
