IPad. How do I change my icloud password for my new iPad?

How do I change my icloud password for my new i? I have a new ipad and the account has an 8- character p/w and I only recorded 7 characters, so the present one must be wrong. I'm scared to overwrite the dots for fear I will loose it completely!

HT4865 How do I change my icloud password

I wanna know how can I change my icloud password ?

1. Before doing anything, turn off 'Find my iPhone/iPad/Mac' on any devices it's enabled on.
2. Sign out of iCloud on all your devices. On a Mac, System Preferences>iCloud and click 'Sign out'. On an iOS device, Settings>iCloud and click 'Delete account' (this will not delete the account from the server). Your iCloud-synced data will disappear from your device. If offered the opportunity to save it on your Mac, don't.
3. Go to http://appleid.apple.com, sign in and click 'Password & Security' in the sidebar. Answer the security questions, if set, and then click 'Edit' next to the password field. Save.
4. Sign back in on all your devices. Your data will re-appear (give it time). You can now re-enable 'Find My...'.
5. I reiterate, before your start, turn off 'Find My...' or you will probably need the services of Support.

Your iCloud login is an Apple ID. You can change the password at http//appleid.apple.com by logging in with the same ID and clicking 'Password and Security' in the sidebar.
This will change the password for anywhere else you log in with the same ID, such as here or in iTunes. If you log into either with a different ID the password will not change there, but you can't separate the passwords for any places which have the same login as iCloud.

When you come to change your password you should follow this method:
1. Before doing anything, turn off 'Find my iPhone/iPad/Mac' on any devices it's enabled on.
2. Sign out of iCloud on all your devices. On a Mac, System Preferences>iCloud and click 'Sign out'.

how do i change my icloud account name to my new apple id without losing my pics

Welcome to the Apple community.
You will need to save your photo stream photos, before you change your iCloud account.
Navigate to the photo stream album and into the photo sheet view (the one with all the thumbnails), click on the small rectangle with the arrow on it, in the top right corner of the screen and then tap each photo you wish to save. Once you have selected all the photos you want to save, tap the save button at the bottom of the screen and choose a new album to save them into.
Once you have done all this, you can delete your current iCloud account and enter your new one.

My user id has changed but did not update in my ipad icloud account. How do I change my icloud account to my new ID?

I changed my user id recently. But in my Ipad, Icloud setting, the ID has not changed. How do I change the ID in Icloud settings?

You cannot change an Apple ID. You presumably created a new one.
So go to Settings > iCloud, delete the old iCloud account from your iPad (down at the bottom), and then sign in with your new Apple ID.
If you have purchased material (e.g., iTunes music), you may well run into issues doing this change, in that your iTunes music is not authorized to play on your new Apple ID.

How do I change my iCloud password?

Every time I type my password in for iCloud , in the settings, it says it's incorrect so I want to find out how to change it

HT204053 How do I change my iCloud account to my new apple ID?

I previously used my moms apple ID and had iCloud set up under her apple ID. I just got a new Mac and am setting up everything under my own apple ID. My iPhone and iPad are linked under the previous ID and I don't knwo how to change the account under iCloud. When it says DELETE ACCOUNT, does it just delete it from my device or does it deleteit for good?

If you want to change your iCloud ID to another existing ID you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account. Deleting the account only deletes if from the device, not from iCloud. Any other devices still using the account will not be effected by this.
Before deleting the account, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them. To do this, open the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On iPhone [iPad}. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
