ICloud with old Apple ID

Can anyone out there help please???????.
when I set my Ipad up, I used a BTinternet.com email account. I have changed my email address to a @sky.com account and BT have now withdrawn / disabled my BTinternet account. This means that I cannot login to the ICloud. I have changed the apps and Itunes account to the Sky.com which was successful, but the Apple id for Icloud will never work.
how can I get the ICloud account changed from BTinternet.com to Sky.com.
Thanks

Ok. To change the ID on your iPad you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the @BTinternet.com when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with your @sky.com ID. If you don't know the password for the @BTinternet.com ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your @sky.com iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to @BTinternet.com address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your @BTinternet.com email address. You can now use your @sky.com password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for @BTinternet.com ID. 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 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.

Can't Delete icloud with old Apple ID (which is not an email address)

Alright a couple of years ago apple made the switch to an email address as the main log on, which I was cool with. Fast forward to today now that I am interested in backing my phone up to the cloud I can not because it is prompting me for the password of my log in due to the fact the find my phone is on. Meaning my log on back in the day was a random word same as my screen name "VERSE13" not an email.
Any help would be apreciated. I tried all the switching of emails to holding magical massage rocks on the back of my phone.

This is what worked for me. Should also work with the other problems with old email address and what not.
First save all your important data. I backed up all my contacts to OUTLOOK and took all my photos off the iphone. This is important as you won't be restoring from an early sync.
The next thing I did was went into my itunes library and deleted all the apps that were associated with my old log in name. (I made a note so I could redownload these later). In Itunes library click on apps then click list. Right click on app and select get info. On the summary tab you will see the apple ID it was purchased/associated with.
The next thing I did was restored my iPhone using the following instructions (which will get you around the whole not knowing the password thing):
With Iphone connected to computer hold power and home button until the phone resets.
When the apple icon comes on release the power button (continue to hold home button).
The iphone screen will display something that is tell you to connect your phone to itunes. On your computer you will receive the following message "Itunes has detected an Iphone in recovery mode. You must restore this iphone before it can be used with iTunes."
Click Ok.
Then click restore iphone.
Then confirm to restore and update.
When complete a screen that says "Welcome to your New Iphone" will be displayed.
Do not select restore from backup. This will just cause the same problems with screen IDs.
At this point just disconnect your Iphone and go through the startup steps on your phone.
Sign in with the Apple ID/Cloud ID that you want to use.
When you are complete with that sync with Itunes library.
Make sure you select to set up as a new Iphone. Place all your APPS and music back on your phone. Set it up how you like it and sync to create a new restore point.
So basically it is just like you got a new phone. So it is very important you save your contacts and pics and video to your local hard drive.

New iCloud with old Apple ID??? How do I create a new one..

I have a old applet ID [email protected] and a old iCloud I'd [email protected] from my IPAD..
I just got a iPhone 5 and want to setup a new iCloud like [email protected] which is within the same apple ID [email protected]
I try to make one which I think I made [email protected] but if I try to add it to facebook or iMessage it states it does not belong to [email protected]
How can I get that one under my apple ID or make a new one under my apple ID

Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and click on Sign Out. If you don't remember the password, you will have to logon to Manage Your Apple ID and reset it: Apple - My Apple ID

All apps downloaded/purchased are tied to the apple ID used to download/purchase them.
If you change your Apple ID and do not wish to use the old apple ID and password to update them, you have to delete them and redownload or buy them under the new apple ID.

Hello, kitkatshaw.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
This sounds like you are attempting to create an iCloud account with your Apple ID through iCloud.com. In order to create an iCloud account, you must sign up via one of the options below.
You can sign up for iCloud on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later, or through System Preferences on a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later.

You create an iCloud account by going to Settings>iCloud on an iOS device or System Preferences>iCloud on a Mac and signing in with your Apple ID. This requires iOS 5 or higher on your iOS device or OS X 10.7.2 or higher on your Mac. Note: you cannot create an iCloud account on a PC, you can only sign into an existing iCloud account that was created on an iOS device or Mac.

When I try to update apps on my iPad, it asks me for my mothers password and displays her apple ID. How do I change it to ask for my apple id and password??? I am signed into the store and iCloud with my apple id. I am not signed into ITunes, the store on the ipad, or icloud under her name. WIERD???

There is no featured tab in my iTunes store. . . and everywhere it shows me signed in. I had downloaded an app for my mother on HER ipad, and that is the only app I have done for her. It shows up on my phone, and now I cannot update any of my apps. I uninstalled that app on my phone, but when I want to update ones I have installed on my phone with my appleid, she keeps showing up.

Any one device can create only three iCloud accounts: this is tied to the hardware, not the user account, and there is no way round this.
You will have to create an iCloud account on another iOS device or Mac, then you can sign into it on your iPhone.

If you've already reset the password and changed your payment information, then the next best thing to do is call Apple directly and ask for iTunes Billing Support. Your account is likely disabled on their computers as part of their fraud prevention protocol. You may have to verify yourself as the account holder to get the account enabled again.
Good Luck!

My iphone still is associating items with old apple id

My Iphone still is associating some items with old apple id I no longer have?

Content bought using one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID.

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.
