My email address no longer exists, how do I log in?

I'm just trying to transfer the serial number of my from an old laptop to a new one, and I tried logging into my Adobe account online to find out the serial number I need.
However when I tried to log in it said that I needed to reset my password, but the email address used for my Adobe ID does no longer exist (the account is completely gone), so I can't look at the confirmation email or reset the password or anything!
Is there any way to change the email address on the account, without using the old email address, so I can successfully log in?
Thanks.

    how do you reset your security questions when the rescue email address no longer exists?

    Didn't the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article work for you? If you don't already have a valid rescue email address, only Apple itself can reset the questions.

  • How do I delete an ICloud acct on IPhone when the old email address no longer exists?

    I changed my Apple ID password due to a phishing email and it started a downward spiral of issues.  My original ICloud email address no longer exists. I have tried to sign out/in in itunes that worked but I cannot delete the ICloud account because the field is not editable for apple ID. I tried setting it back to the old email address to turn off Find my IPhone but it will nopt allow because the email address cannot be verified because it no longer exists.

    To Delete an 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 iPhone.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, 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 iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID.  You should then be able to delete the old account.  When done, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.

    My rescue email address no longer exists and I can't remember my security questions. HELP

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • How can I retrieve an Apple ID password when the Apple ID (email address) no longer exists?

    How can I retrieve an ex employees Apple ID password when she can't even remember it? Plus Apple ID used to her company email address, which no longer exists for her. Apple support says it will send an email to her so I can change the password, but I'll never get it, since her email no longer works, she is not with us no more. Help please! I need to pass this iPhone to another, new employee.

    You cannot retrieve her password. Note the Apple ID, in Apple's eyes, belongs to _her_.  It is not the property of the company.  If she wishes to reset the password, she can go to the Apple ID site:  https://appleid.apple.com/ and try and change it.  If she doesn't know the password and has no access to the email address it may prove challenging if she provided no backup email address.
    But I'm not sure this is the root of the problem.  If the iPhone is locked using "activation lock" and it's running iOS 7 then yes, it will need to be unlocked.  If your company has proof of purchase of the iPhone, you may wish to try contacting AppleCare.  Otherwise, she can release it by going to her iCloud page and disabling it.

  • How can I authorise my computer when the email address no longer exists

    Yesterday, due to software problems I had to have my computer wiped. I reinstalled iTunes and loaded all my music, films etc back on (these are kept on a hard drive) with no problems. I now have about 120 songs/videos that will not play as they were purchased with an email address that no longer exists. iTunes keeps asking me to authorise my computer but I do not know the password. Is there any way I can get these purchases back? Not techy at all, please help, I've been at this all day!!!

    You will need to call Apple at 800-275-2273 and ask for the Account security department.  They will have you sign into the My Apple ID site at id.apple.com using the Manage Apple ID button and generate a temporary support pin.  It can be found in the lower left corner of the Password and Security section once you log in.
    Once you give them the support pin, they will ask for one other piece of information from the account in order to verify that you own it.  This can either be one of the current security questions, the credit card linked to the account, a device serial number, or a device verification code that they can send you.
    Good luck!

  • I changed my email address and now cannot play items purchased with previous email. This only became a problem after I got a new computer. The original email address no longer even exists. How can I access these hundreds of items?

    I changed my email address a few years ago. I did not have any problems after this change until I got a new computer. Now I cannot play items that were purchased under the previous email. I entered the password that I used and it doesn't recognize it. I tried "forgot your password" in every combination possible. I never received any emails at the old email address. Now the old email address no longer even exists. How can I access these hundreds of items?

    The old email address may well still be valid as your iTunes AppleID, however if you have no other email associated with that ID you clearly won't get any automated emails to it.
    I still use an old defunct email for my iTunes AppleID.
    Contact support here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/ww/
    You may want to try to manage the old ID here:
    https://appleid.apple.com/
    Use the original email address and password.

  • ICloud is asking me for my old Apple ID which is with an email that no longer exists. How do I change it to my new Apple ID?

    iCloud is asking me for my old Apple ID which is with an email that no longer exists. How do I change it to my new Apple ID?

    If you renamed your iCloud ID and need to change it on your device, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • Trying to erase settings from my old iphone but when I have to enter my itunes ID password the old email address is displayed.  How can I change this to my existing itunes account so I can reset this phone?  Thank you.

    Trying to erase settings from my old iphone but when I have to enter my itunes ID password the old email address is displayed.  How can I change this to my existing itunes account so I can reset this phone?  Thanks in advance.

    I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question.  Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing.  I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
    My playlists "ARE"  in my iphone 4s.  They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer. 
    When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes.  I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes:  Music, Movies, TV shows, books.  That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS"  but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone.  Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
    Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this.  I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer

    You can log out of the currently logged in account by taping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and you can then log back in.
    If you updated your existing account with a new email address then that shoud 'refresh' it on it
    If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can redownload its content and download updates to its apps. You should be able to update an account's email address via this page : http://appleid.apple.com

  • HT5622 I own three Apple devices, but my iPad remained associated with my old email address and password. How can I register it with the same new email and password?

    I own three Apple devices, but my iPad remained associated with my old email address and password. How can I register it with the same new email and password?

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.
