Language find my phone email

Hello,
This is the first time google has not been able to answer my question.
I live in Canada. I bought my phone in Quebec, a french speaking part of Canada. Even when I am not in Quebec the e-mail I receive from Apple is in french. How do you change this to english?
My phone came with french on it. I had to "format" it and install in english, I was updating the IOS anyway and it was new, so it wasn't a bit deal.
I have had my apple account since I lived in the USA and it was in English.
How/ Where do you change the language options for how the iCloud repsonds to you? When I first setup my iCloud it was in french, then I changed it.
Thank you for your assistance in this.
Cheers,
Drew585

I saw that your question hasn't been answered yet.
Go to:
Apple - My Apple ID
https://appleid.apple.com/
Sign in with your Apple ID and on the left hand column the last item is "Language and Contact Preferences"
You'll be able to change your "Preferred Language" there. As soon as you begin typing the choices will apear.
I hope this helps.

  • How to delete an iCloud account and turnoff Find my Phone for a email address that does not exist

    I have switched my itunes account to a new email address but the iCloud account is still registered to the old email account which I can no longer access.
    If I go to Settings>iCloud it requests my Apple ID password for the old email account but as this account does not exsist it does not accept the "old" password. it will not let me delete the account without turning off the Find My Phone app which aslo needs the old password.
    A related probelm is none of my apps will update as they are on the old account hence the need to delete the iCloud email account and create the new iCloud with the new email sign on address.

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address (you won't need to verify it) and save the change.  You should now be able to use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID.  After turning it off you can delete the account, go back change your ID back to the way it was again.

  • I have a new email address. Changed this on my itunes account. On iPhone deleted old icloud account and created new with new email. I have set find my phone to on. When I download music it no longer goes to icloud an does not show up on my iphone.

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

  • TS4006 I had to change my email address awhile back it's brianwilliams294 now . It use to be brianpol . And it's not letting me log in to find my phone App. Thank you

    Are you signed into the changed iCloud ID on your phone, or it is still signed into your old ID?

  • Forgot to sign out of old id and changed icloud email address and cant sign out of find my phone

    I have a iphone 4s and changed icloud email address and forgot to sign out of find my phone. How can I turn it off to change to the new email address that I changed in icloud?

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished 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.

    No need for alarm. There are several folks a day posting like threads. Most folks know these phishing attempts for what they are and merely delete with prejudice.
    To the bottom line... if you wish - and I am sure Apple will take notice - you should FORWARD the email to [email protected] and delete.

  • How can I use find a phone with my family members but they each have there own email

    How can I use find a phone with my family's iphone when they already have email addresses?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't use find my phone from your phone if your other family members use another iCloud account.
    You have two options depending on why you want to find the phones.
    Use find my phone at iCloud.com on a mac/PC and log in using their account.
    Use the find my friends app

    If you didn't enable find my iphone in icloud settings on your phone, then you can't do a lost mode or lock your phone.
    I would assume you had a passcode on your phone to lock it.  If you didn't then start changing your passwords.
    Report the lost to your phone carrier - local authorities.

  • When I look up email addresses in Outlook 2010 on my pc, it only finds cell phones.  How do I get it to find email addresses automatically?

    When I look up email addresses in Outlook 2010 on my pc, it only finds cell phones.numbers.    How do I get it to find email addresses automatically?

      Addl question:  when I DO send an email from the address book, they are all coming back with the msg: 
    The following recipient(s) cannot be reached: & None of your e-mail accounts could send to this recipient.
    But when I type in the exact same address manually, it goes thru just fine.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes it sends out an email when you use Find My Phone.

  • TS4403 is it possible to view your photos from icloud? example, I can view my notes, email & find my phone, but im unable to view photostream. anybody got an answer?

    Is it possible to view your photos while on icloud, example: I can view my notes, calendar and even find my phone. I see that there is an option to manualy delyete the photostream pix as well as retrieve them when restoring your idevice. So, why is it that I cant view the pix?

    PhotoStream is designed only for shunting photos taken on one device onto all the others. You can't actually view the photos at icloud.com.
    The exception to this is any shared Photostream: these can, if you so choose, appear on a web page:

    Also do a search, using the serial number, on your local Craig’s List. Some users list the serial number of a stolen iPad to thwart the sale of a stolen device.
