If i change my Apple ID, will i lose my apps? Will i have to redownload all of them? Will i lose all my pictures, notes, etc.?

I was wanting to change my Apple ID, because some of my apps were not responding. Do you think that if i changed the ID that i would get those apps back? Or is there another solution?

Apps are forever tied to the AppleID that purchased them.  Non-responsive apps have absoultely nothing to do with the AppleID.
Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.

    No, it will just ask you for the password to your old Apple ID to update the apps in the future. Unless your talking about simply changing the email address associated with your Apple ID account.

    No.
    Just update your current AppleID, do not create new account.

  • HT5621 If I change my Apple ID will all music etc that I have downloaded still be retained?

    If I change my Apple ID will all the music that I have previously downloaded be retained?

    If you update your existing iTunes account then yes, all of the content that you currently have on the account should remain on it, and you will be able to redownload what you can currently redownload (if you are changing countries then you won't be able to redownload, content is tied to the country as well as the id)

    Greetings elalewis, 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    If you would like to change the email address that you use as your Apple ID, you can do so without losing purchased content. Note that email addresses ending with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com are already Apple IDs, and cannot be changed.  
    See this article for the complete steps to change the email address used as your Apple ID:

  • HT5622 How do I change the Apple id against a certain telephone number?  I have two iPhones and wish to use a different Apple id for each and confused as to how I do this?

    How do I change the Apple id against a certain telephone number?  I have two iPhones and wish to use a different Apple id for each and confused as to how I do this?

    Create a new Apple ID for the second phone. If you are setting the phones up as new phone enter the ID you want to use on each phone.
    If both phones are already signed in to one Apple ID then use the settings app to change Apple IDs on one phone.
    Settings > iTunes and App Store > tap on the Apple ID > sign out > sign in with alternate Apple ID.
    Note that if you have downloaded apps with the original Apple ID on the phone with the new Apple ID, those apps will still be associated with the old Apple ID and will require the old ID and password in order to update them.

  • I had changed my Apple ID on my PC and realized iCloud. On my iphone  iCloud account is on the old ID. Could not find where to change it.   In Settings-iTunes

    I had changed my Apple ID on my PC and realized iCloud. On my iphone  iCloud account is on the old ID. Could not find where to change it.  In Settings-iTunes & App Stores – I had replaced the old ID with the new one. On my iPad 2 – iCloud account is on old ID, I cannot change it, 
    do i have to delete iCloud accounts and re=build them ?

    Yes, you got it. there is no way to change - just delete. Usually there is no loss, but photostream is reset, so make sure to back up your pictures before you do.

  • 2 New Ipads (Retina and Mini)(New to Apple) How do I share purchased apps, but others have each act independently? Mini is for the Wife the Ipad4? is for me. I want to use mine at work, etc. She's home with the kids. Can we set them up seperate, but share

    2 New Ipads (Retina and Mini)(New to Apple) How do I share purchased apps, but others have each act independently? Mini is for the Wife the Ipad4? is for me. I want to use mine at work, etc. She's home with the kids. Can we set them up seperate, but share
    --break--
    So we are entirely new to Apple products. I'm an IT guy, but have always been a windows user.
    So the Ipad with Retina Display is to be mine (and will use it at work for notes, organization, etc)
    The MINI is for the wife.
    But, are we allowed and can we.. buy an app and share that app between both devices? IE. Can I buy a copy of Angry Birds for the House and both Ipad's use that single purchase? and if so, can we still run the Ipads seperate other than to share the apps purchased. IE my facebook and email set up on mine and hers on her ipad mini?
    When I finally find a note taking app I like, can I share it on her ipad, without her having all my work files, etc?
    Thanks for helping out the apple noob. Hoping for a great experience, and anticipate droping $100 in apps the first day.. just don't want to do that twice. If this is against the usage policy, thats unfortunate but good to know. (I mean we can share stuff on PC as long as its in the same household)
    thanks again (explanations or links are fine)

    There are a number of Apple services: iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud, Game center, Find My iPad, etc.
    Now, to share apps, music and books you need to have the same Apple ID:
    iPad's Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID > Your purchasing Apple ID.
    For the other service, your wife should have her own Apple ID.
    All she needs is a valid e-mail address, apply Apple ID below:

  • If I change my Apple ID will it delete my songs?

    I share an Apple ID with my sisters as well as an iTunes library. If I get my own Apple ID then will I still be able to share a library with them?

    when you change your Apple iD it's pretty much changing the visual email, i guess that doesn't really answer your question, yes you keep your purchases, it just changes the log-in email and email where newsletters , etc. go to.
