Issues after apple id change

I used to have a non-email apple id from 2005 till couple of weeks back. Then when I tried to upgrade to iOS 5, the system forced me to create an Apple ID that is a working email address. So I usded the same email that was connected to my original ID, to be my new Apple ID. Now there seem to be some problem of updating my already bought apps. When ever I try to install an update on an app, it prompts me to enter password for my old apple ID...even though in iTunes I am logged in using my new apple ID.
Anybody faced a similar issue and any suggestions?

You should define your old email address that you used for iTunes in Settings > App Store
You would use the iCloud ID under Settings > iCloud

Disable iCloud after apple id changed?

Hi,
I changed my apple id primary address on the web but forgot to sign off iCloud and "Find My iPhone" on my iPhone 5. After I upgraded my iPhone 5 from iOS 7 to iOS 8, it starts asking me iCloud password associated with the old email id, but it no longer accepts the password and I can no longer sign in to iCloud, nor can I switch to the new apple id on the iPhone.
I tried the solution on Can't change iCloud ID, but it doesn't work for me because when I try to revert to my old email address, it says "This email address is not available for use as an Apple ID. You may already have an Apple ID associated with this address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID." in the "Change Primary Email Address" input.
Anyone hit similar problems before? Really appreciate your help on this!
Thanks.

I have the ditto problem contacted Apple Support and basically their Sr.Tech wasted my time, and after calling for a week and spending three hours each time, Icloud id forwarded to so called "engineering" and they will contact me in two business days, Apple is so ignorant that they don't care that my phone is locked including all my contact and other important information still they are taking their time to resolving the issue. if you have any alternative method to restore the phone please let me know

Can't log on to icloud after apple ID change

I changed my apple ID. Now cannot lig into icloud from any device. I am asked for P/W for former ID. My current apple p/w mot accepted.
I deleted old account on iphone and ipad and new account name works for email but not icloud???
Anny suggestions?

I had deleted the account on both devices but failed to setup the new account on one of them. The icloud problem was solved but what i thought to be a related issue was not.
When I try to update my apps or podcasts I am asked for my apple P/W while presented my original ID for apple. That was back when they did not use an email address.
It was indicated by apple, when they went to email IDs that the original ID was still valid but I don't use it.
So I guess my current issue is how do I kill it?

Server error on Find My Friends after apple id change

I keep getting a server error on find my friends after I updated my apple id. I have made sure I've updated my apple id everywhere including icloud. What is really wierd is when I go into find my friends, and click on "me" the "Send As" under invitations shows my old apple id but when i click on that to change it, my new id shows up in that space. Its like the iCloud has a glitch on my old apple ID. I'm not even sure a complete phone restore would work if icloud is the problem. Any ideas?

I'm having the same problem! I started out with an old @mac.com address that then got migrated to an @me.com address. I log into my account with the @mac, but my email address is @me. It seems like the app is trying to verify the @mac email address, which doesn't exist anymore. I can't believe there isn't a fix for this yet!

Unable to delete icloud account from device after Apple ID change

I recently changed my apple ID from my corporate account to a personal address but forgot to log out of icloud on my ipad. The icloud account on the device is still linked to the old apple id and so cannot delete it as unable to authenticate.
I am unable to use the work around of changing my apple id back to the original address as it not longer exists (left the company)
I am also unable to reset my ipad entirely (as I did to resolve the issue on one of my iphones) as it also still tries to authenticate against the original Apple ID.
Any suggestions?

Hi,
I know to Id. To clarify
My old Apple ID was myname@workemail
I changed the account to have the Apple ID myname@personal email.
To change the Apple ID back to myname@workemail the email address needs to be valid?
The email account address myname@workemail is no longer valid so if I need to verify it I can't. If I don't need to use a valid email address as my Apple ID it resolves the problem. (On iOS 7.0.4)
Thanks!

New iPad user; confused after apple ID change of password and email address. New details NOT recognised by iCloud and actual iPad? Help! Thank you

I'm new to my iPad & Apple!
I have updated/ changed details within my Apple ID; email, contact details and changed password.
This has worked & recognised when using updated password for use with Apple's web site (e.g. Able to login to this site) & all other apps with the EXCEPTION of iCloud and also my actual iPad ("internal/own" software/OS I would presume?!).
Shortly after turning my iPad on, the Apple ID request pops up showing my old email address. I have tried entering old & new passwords which both fail. I now cancel this request and continue ok.
This also happens with iCloud: as just mentioned, the request for Apple ID comes up with old email address and neither old or new passwords are accepted (& therefore I can not back-up to iCloud).
Can anyone help please?
With anticipated appreciation and thanks,
NJohnR
(Maybe I should mention that while I live in the UK; Scotland, I am currently on holiday in France while I have made further changes to my ID password, though was at home when made initial changes).

I have resolved this problem!
I try &change my email details within my iPad's iCloud settings. Though the primary (old) email could not be changed.
So I took advice from further searches here & on the iCloud site & went ahead and deleted my iCloud account. Success! Immediately after deleting the account I had a request to open & login to a new iCloud account with my new Apple ID login details already there (showing my new email address & requesting my password- all which worked fine). Also I have not lost any files.
I hope that this may help someone else in the future.
Happy Appleing all

ICloud won't work on mac after apple ID changed

I just updated my apple ID today. The same ID seemed to work on the mac Apps and iTunes store and my ipad iTunes and apps after I restarted them (restarting and updating the new ID to be the same). But this evening my mac iCloud said it can't/ isn't working. My iCloud apple ID is the OLD applel ID. It is greyed out and I can't update it. Please tell me what settings to change or what I have to do to get my iCloud up and running again.
I don't want to delete everything from iCloud with sign out unless that is the only way.
I guess I don't understand what happens to my data if I sign out of the cloud. Is it lost to my old apple ID or is it just floating there until I pick it up again with my new apple ID?
Please help me fix this
Thanks

Good day haynechi,
If your external hard drive will not mount on your MacBook Air but it will show up in Disk Utility, you may need to erase the hard drive in order to get it to show up on the Mac again. NOTE - this process will destroy any data on the drive, so be sure you have anything on there backed up somewhere else before you begin!
Use the steps in this article -

Account credit after Apple ID change

I have recently changed my account ID used for iTunes. The transfer was smooth except my account credit has disappeared. How do I regain my funds?
Thanks in advance.

Do you mean that you've updated the details on your existing account or created a new account ?
If you updated your existing account and your balance isn't showing, and you've checked the account's purchase history (e.g. you didn't have any pre-orders and/or auto-renewing subscriptions that were due), then hae you tried logging out and back into the account ? If your balance still doesn't show then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can help with where it went : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
If you created a new account then your balance will remain on your old account.

Voicemail Issues after phone number change

I recently changed my phone number. I programmed the phone per the directions provided and I had to manually go in and update the speed dial for #1 so it would dial my new number. The issue is, if I receive a voicemail, I get the "Listen" link on the screen. If I click that link, it still dials my old number. I have looked through the owner's manual and through the online info on the site but have not found any way to fix this issue.
Can anyone help me figure this out??!?!!?

Issue after cluster ip change

I changed the ip address on both the servers of a cluster running version 3.2, and everything seems to be working fine, except for the fact that a virtual nic is automatically created with one of the old IP's, the weirdest thing is that server 2 is the one creating the virtual nic with the old ip for server one, I double checked the configuration and nothing seems wrong to me, what could I be missing?
The old ifconfig output for server 2 was:

The ip address on interface e1000g0:2 used to be on server 1, even if i do an unplumb it gets created again.

Thanks for the reply, the netmasks file was modified when I did the IP change, this my actual file on both servers:
# The netmasks file associates Internet Protocol (IP) address
# masks with IP network numbers.
# network-number netmask
# The term network-number refers to a number obtained from the Internet Network
# Information Center.
# Both the network-number and the netmasks are specified in
# "decimal dot" notation, e.g:
# 128.32.0.0 255.255.255.0
10.212.75.0 255.255.255.192
Any other suggestions?

Enrollment issues after Benefits Configuration Changes

Two of our Disability plans will no longer need to use Cost Groupings as a variant because all enrollees will have the same rates. I changed the configuration 'Define Cost Variants' screen (which has no effective date) to reflect this and added a new cost rule with a blank cost group effective 1/1/2011. All of the existing cost groups for this plan are now delimited as of 12/31/2010.
When we try to enroll employees in these plans for 1/1/2011 Annual Enrollment, the results are inconsistent. For some employees, the plans just don't show up on the enrollment screen. For those who are currently in the plans, the plan shows up, but if you try to enroll them, you receive this error message 'No entry for plan LTD1 / cost variant FINS / key //////0000000000000'. If I change the enrollment date to 1/2/2011, the error goes away.
For employees where the plan does show up, and they have never been enrolled in the plan, the enrollment works fine for 1/1/2011.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

hello,
I have seen this error before and it was usually linked to incorrect configuration.
You should check your feature CSTV1 Cost grouping and make sure it returns the correct entry for the employee
Hope this help

How to unlink two iPhones are still linked after Apple ID change?

I upgraded to iPhone 5s and gave my 4s to a friend. I reset it and everything but the iPhone still had all of my contacts and everything on it. She reset it, it didn't do anything different. She messed around and somehow got her email address connected to my apple iD. I sent her to the sprint store for them to help her reset it. They set the phone up for her but our phones are somehow still linked. I have deleted her email address from my apple account. It had it under the alternative address section. But when I go to send a text message and look up someone's number through the search, it brings up names and numbers that are on her phone, but not in my contacts. When I go to my contacts, they do not show up. Only when searching on the text message section. Also I notice that her email address is still listed in my icloud account. When I click on iCloud under settings and and click on my account email address it brings up my account info. But at the bottom it says "advance" and her email address shows there. how do I fix this?

This isn't being cused by iCloud. It happens when you both use the same Apple ID for iMessage. To fix this you have two choices:
On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID. Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".
Also be sure you aren't using the same ID for FaceTime or you'll get each other's FaceTime calls. If you are, one one of the phones go to Setings>Facetime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.

Anyone else having FB issues after changing to iOS 8?

Anyone else having FB issues after changing to iOS 8?

Hello, jld1956.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I see you are having an issue with the Facebook application. I would first start with forcing all open applications to close and restart the device. If the issue persists, try the troubleshooting steps in the article below. You also may want to reach out to the developer of the application as well.

I'm not sure that Lion AutoSave feature apply to network servers.
I'm just sure that the Versions feature doesn't.

So, about a week ago my macbook pro started having lots of issues: wifi connectivity, slow performance, sound issues, spotlight wasn't working. After going through the issues with apple support, they decided the best course of action was to erase the hard drive and do a reinstall. Since I have a recent backup this seemed like a good enough option. They were kind enough to send me a copy of the snow leopard disk to do the install since we couldn't get it to complete through the disk utility. Not sure why, since it says we are fully connected, it just never completed.
Anyway, so now that you have the background here is the new issue. The macbook pro keeps spitting out the disk I'm trying to install from. Disk utility and using the 'Startup Disk' function from the apple menu doesn't read the disk.
Can anyone suggest a solution to this vexing problem?
Thanks in advance.

Jeremy.Laurin,
have you tried agb76’s approach here?
