IPhone 3G - iTunes "Info Tab" Incorrect Email Address

The e-mail address posted under the "Info Tab" in ITunes differs from my actual MobileMe address. My actual address is [email protected] but under the INfo Tab it is listed as [email protected] Does any one know where this is picked up?
If under "Advanced" I choose to Replace info on this iPhone from iTunes, it creates a second account on my iPhone.
Any ideas, how to correct this so it lists my correct MobileMe e-mail address under the Info Tab?
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
There is probably not much we can do here to help...this is a user-to-user forum and not Apple, Inc. Apple provides the servers, etc. and monitors behavior but does not respond directly normally.
Best thing would be to go to the iTunes account and cancel the account and create a new one. Users on these discussions do not have access to the accounts.
Some members can contact the Apple hosts and alert them to the problem but we really can not do anything ourselves.

Entered incorrect email address when setting up Apple ID, therefore cannot get verification email. Also 'redeemed' $50 iTunes card before mistake was realised.

Entered incorrect email address when setting up Apple ID, also 'redeemed' $50 iTunes card before mistake was realised. Naturally, the email address cannot be validated, so cannot proceed further. Please help.

You can't merge IDs, but if you want to change the ID:
For iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the new ID.
For FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
For Purchasing, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Store.
For iCloud, start by saving your photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream album, tap Select, tap all the photos you want to save, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with your new ID and choose Merge to upload your data.

I have an itouch that will not let me sign in to my itunes account. The email address that it is associated with is no longer valid. I keep entering the correct password but it says that it is incorrect. I cant get a reset all of my credentials dont work.

I have an itouch that will not let me sign in to my itunes account. The email address that it is associated with is no longer valid. I keep entering the correct password but it says that it is incorrect. I can’t get a reset all of my credentials don’t work. Now all my apps won’t work. it looks like they load for half a second then disappear. What can I do?

- Try contacting iTunes for the password problem:
Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us
- For the other problem you can try a reset. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- The next standard thing to do is to download/install a new app but you cant 'do that.
- Instead, try restoring from backup.

I can't seem to sync my calendar on my iphone to iCal because the default email address associated with my calendar on my iphone was to an old work email address that I no longer have.

I can't seem to sync my calendar on my iphone to iCal because the default email address associated with my calendar on my iphone was to an old work email address that I no longer have. When I go to ICal it asks for the username and password which I no longer have. The calendar is still on my phone (even though the email account is on my phone but doesn't work) Is there a way to copy my calendar to a different email address on my iphone? I have now set the default email account for the calendar to a current email address but I still can't figure out how to merge my iphone calendars, copy the iphone calendar to iCal, or save my iphone calendar to my mac. Also, I read in ITunes to check "sync to ICal" but my ITunes under my iphone and info just says "Sync Calendars" which doesn't transfer it to iCal when I sync my phone.

After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.

I have a mac mini with a web cam/microphone and would like to be able to facetime with my families iPhones 4S/5 using wi-fi email address. I can't call the iPhones from the Mac Mini with Mountain Lion OS. What is wrong?

I am trying to include a Mac Mini with a webcam/microphone to call several family iPhones 4S/5 usisng email addresses vice phone numbers so that we can communicate from outside the US via iPhone to the US (Mac Mini) via wi-fi and email addresses. We are using the same email address for the Mac Mini as for Itunes and made new email addresses for each of the iPhones. I cannot receive calls from the iPhones but can call the iPhones from the Mac Mini. what needs to be corrected?
Thanks.

That depends on what you mean. If you mean two iTunes Store accounts, no. Only one Apple ID can be logged into the iTunes Store at a time and if automatic download, iTunes Match or re-downloading of content is used the ID can not be changed for 90 days.

So i guess if i solve my goof up on creating different apple IDs and setting her phone as a new one .. according to you that shall do the trick.
But i have a question here in that case what happens to all the applications that have been purchased on my Id ? Wont i be needing them to be purchased/downloaded again in the new id?
If you previously had been using the same Apple ID for iTunes Store purchases for both of you there is no reason to change what you've been doing. If this is your wife's first iPhone, and you want to share the iTunes Store account just don't use the new Apple ID you created. As long as there are no purchases on it there's nothing to worry about.

HELP!

In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

Cant sign into iTunes with VPP manager email address

Is anyone else having difficulty signing into iTunes with their Apple VPP account manager email address? I work as an IT contractor for a number of schools and in the past have set up VPP so that paid and free apps can be distributed via an MDM solution. Recently, the process by which we do this isn't working any more. Apple have admitted in emails that they have changed the way that VPP accounts are set up on their end and that during the transition some accounts were processed incorrectly (causing a lot of headaches and confusion). In one instance, we set up the VPP manager account using a distribution list email address of .*******. later, we enabled two step verification and provisioned the facilitator account. but when we sent to sign into the iTunes store with the management accounts email address, we got the error message: "this email is associated with he VPP program". We have told apple about this who replied with a frustrating tautology: "our records indicate that that address is associated with the VPP program, so you will have to use another email address to sign into iTunes." Trouble is, for the purposes of information management, we cant just sign into iTunes with any old email address, we have to use one provisioned by the education department, and they wont provision another email address for this.. Also, we have screenshots which demonstrate that it is possible to sign into iTunes with the program manager account at other schools, so what has changed? If this keeps up, I will have no choice but to recommend to all schools in future that they not go with Apple because their account provision system is not maintained at a professional level. The fact that they are so slow moving on this makes me look bad and the lack of documentation is inexcusable given the massive profits they have been posting. I will campaign vehemently against the use of apple in education unless this situation changes for the better. Already one school on our books have had an absolute gut-full of and have sold off the 60 iPads they purchased in favor of Android tablets with custom ROMS. What is the solution and why is there no phone number for Apple VPP in Australia?
<Edited by Host>

I know this post is over a year old. We setup our VPP account in Feb last year. It's very frustrating.
This is what I wrote to Apple.
This whole system *****!!!!
Seriously. I sign up under the old system and now we have to go through more doors to get in than a gold refinery.
You honestly think your product is worth this much pain. Get real!!!
I work at a school as THE ONLY IT Support Officer. I setup a generic user account for VPP under the old system so that the account was not tied to my name just in case I left or someone else had to take over the role. Now we cant use that account to manage the VPP account. We have to create other admin accounts. Trouble is, most of us already have our personal emails attached to iTunes accounts, AND YOUR SYSTEM WON'T LET US USE THESE ACCOUNTS TO BE ADMINS FOR OUR VPP ACCOUNT BECAUSE THEY ARE ALREADY ATTACHED TO AN ITUNES ACCOUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now I'm home and I can't remember my logon password and cant recall my recovery key because it's all back at work on a system I cant access until 2 weeks from now when the school holidays are over.
Well done Apple, you managed to make Microsoft look good!
The generic email account we setup is a distribution list account for the purposes of adding and removing people as needed. Apples change now means that we have to create more email accounts. I won't be doing that any time soon, I already have 5 and not about to create moer.
I too will not be recommending that schools go with Apple products. They are a consumer product, not an enterprise product. The promise you the world and all you get is pain.

I created an Apple ID for iTunes using a work email address and left that company before I had an opportunity to change the email and password for that account. How do I change the email address to a new one that I can access?

I created an Apple ID for iTunes using a work email address and left that company before I had an opportunity to change the email and password for that same account. Now I can't seem to login to that account and I can't choose the option for forgot password because it will send email to the old workplace. How do I change the email address to a new one that I can access?

If you remeber the password to that Apple ID then follow these steps
1 - Make sure you have an email address that is NOT an Apple ID
2 - Go to AppleID.Apple.com
3 - Where it reads Manage Apple ID - Sign in
Once you are signed in want to make sure the email address you are wanting to use is NOT set up as a "Recovery/Rescue" email for this account.
[To check this - Main page where you see Primary ID - below do you see the email address you want to use listed towards the bottom? Yes - Delete / No - Good ./. If made any adjustments "Save" Next on the left select "Password & Security" - Answer your security questions you set up "if you have any" then scroll towards the bottom and check to see if you see the email address you want to use. Yes - Delete / No - Good] <-> Also you can change your password on this page as well. Any adjustments made "Save"
Once this is done go back to the main page where you should read "Primary ID" and change the email address that is showing to the new email address youo want. "Save" Done
I learned this not to long ago and worked for me. Hope this helps you!

When I sync my iPhone 5 to Outlook 2010, the email addresses that I have listed as Email 1 for any given contact in my iPhone will be automatically moved to Email 3 in the Outlook file. Is there a way to fix this?

When I sync my iPhone 5 to Outlook 2010, the email addresses that I have listed as Email 1 for any given contact in my iPhone will be automatically moved to Email 3 in the Outlook file. Is there a way to fix this?

iCloud email supports 'plus' addressing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address#Address_tags
So your friend could just add '+research' to the username part of your email address, and you setup a rule at icloud.com to put all emails sent to that address into a particular folder.
For example:
[email protected]
There's no way to do it without rules on the server though.

The iphone is designed to be synced to your computer or cloud service regularly. Your contacts will be in whatever program/service that you have chosen to sync.
