My icloud ID is different than my Apple ID. Help!

I am trying to delete cloud data. I cannot sign in to cloud as Apple ID is different than cloud ID!
How do I reset cloud password and change my ID on my phone!

Did you change your Apple ID by going to Manage your Apple ID and editing the existing one to a new ID?
If so, then you need to do the following to delete your iCloud account:
1.     Go to Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the old ID (the one that is showing on the iCloud account). This is a temporary change - do NOT verify it, do NOT change the password:   Apple - My Apple ID
2.     Go to Settings>iCloud on your device and scroll to the bottom of the screen and press Delete to delete the iCloud account. Type in your current Apple ID password when asked.
3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the new ID (you may need to verify it again)
4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign onto iCloud with your new ID
Cheers,

  • How do I reset my computer password?  I have it written down and it will not work.  This is different than my apple ID

    How do I reset my computer password so I can download software to my computer?  This is different than my apple ID, 
    I wrote it down but it is not working.  Need help

    You have encountered the Activation Lock. If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a "certain" (your word not mine) Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must enter the certain" Apple ID and password to use the device. If you cannot do this you will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

  • ICloud email is different than Apple ID

    I recently bought a new iphone5s, prior to which I was using an iphone 4. I never used my iCloud servcices in my old phone, but had created an ID anyways. However the email address that I had used to create my ICloud, is no longer available. Nor do I remember my security questions (Shockingly, I dont know what I was doing while creating it).
    Anyways, I never needed iCloud, but I did have an Apple ID which is using a different log in and password than my Icloud (I tried entering the same password as my Apple ID).
    When I bought my iphone5S, it synced with my itunes (I clicked on Restore iphone), and copied all settings from my last back up of my iphone4, along with its iCloud email address !!
    Now it keeps prompting my for my iCloud password, and there is absolutely no way I can change or delete the account, since I cant login nor do i remember my security questions.
    Please help.

  • The email address used to Sign into my icloud is no longer active, this is different than my apple id email address though. How can I change my icloud email address to my current apple id email address

    When I received my iphone 4s 3 years ago the my apple id and icloud email addresses were the same, it was a student email from the college I attended. This account is no longer active, but when I changed my apple id email address to a current email (gmail account) the icloud address didn't change over. I now have no ability to sign into icloud on my phone and icloud hasn't been updated in nearly a year. I wanted to figure out this problem before I upgraded to the Iphone 6 this December. Is there any way this is possible?

  • My apple I'd for iTunes is different than my apple I'd for I cloud, how can I make them the same

    I just update the operating software on my Ipad2. When  I was going thru the final steps, it asked me to sign in to iCloud, which had my old apple ID attached to it. It was grayed out so I could not click on it to change it. How do I change my iCloud ID to match my apple store ID?

  • Preview is different than final compile? HELP PLEASE

    This is a simple test animation, but 2 things go wrong when I compile it
    1: the clouds in the compiled version move at different speeds than when I hit "play" in the workstation
    2: one of the clouds dissapears (the bottom one), and then reappears randomly, something that it doesn't do in the workstation
    Ive tried it in different layers, with different types of objects, and even capturing it frame-by-frame, but it always messes up when i export it!
    Heres the .fla and the .swf files, if someone could look and see if i'm overlooking something and give me feedbac

    Hi,
    It looks like you have accidently added the same motion tween twice at different levels of nesting within the same symbol. Also within nesting, you're using Movieclip instance somewhere and Graphic instance at other places.
    This answers both of your queries:
    1. Speed is different because the resultant speed is the addition of two motions along the same path. (When previewing within application, animations within a movieclip are not shown but within Graphics are shown.)
    2. The disappearance happens due to the same eason. The start and end point of a grapic animation is dependent on the parent timeline and remains the same during looping. Movieclip animations on the other hand, always play completely and may spill over multiple loops. So basically the start point of the animation is getting shifted with every loop.
    You can remove one of the tweens from the nested symbol to fix this.

  • Text on Dust Jacket different than on Hard Cover - Help

    Although I read an April 30th posting on this same subject, I did not really understand the replies.
    The dust jacket on my hardcover book is perfect in Lucinda Calligraphy Text as is all the text throughout the book. However when I checked the preview of my book, the Hard Cover Text was in a block type text.
    How do I change the block text on the Hard Cover to Lucinda Calligraphy to match the rest of the book?
    I have spent the past 2 days trying to figure this out and total frustration has finally set in.
    Since I wish to order 6 copies of this book for family members, as a tribute to my recently deceased mother, I want it to be as perfect as possible.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    PJC

    PJC:
    What theme did you use and was the text you used for the dust jacket the default font for that theme. I just checked my last book and the embossed text was the same font as the dust jacket but I had used the default font. As Larry mentioned if a non default font is used for the dust jacket maybe a default block font is used for the embossing.
    Post that question to Apple at http://www.apple.com/support/photoservices/contact_us/.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • My ICloud ID is a different email than my apple store email?

    My email on my Icloud is different than my apple store email and it wont let me change my ICloud one?? help asap please!

    There is no way to change your primary address of a other provider to your @me.com address, but you could change it to a other email address from a other email provider e.g. Hotmail, Yahoo!, Gmail etc.
    If you want that your primary address (Apple ID) and iCloud me.com address is the same, then you have to create a new account and choose the option "get a free me.com address during the set up process.
    On your iPhone/iPad (iOS 5):
    During the set up of your device or in settings "Settings > iCloud or Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account... > iCloud"
    On your Mac (Lion/Mountain Lion):
    During the set up of your device or in system preferences "System Preferences > iCloud or System Preferences > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > + to add an account > iCloud"

  • I forgot my iCloud password.  It is different from my Apple ID account.

    How can I locate my iCloud password? My iCloud email address and password are DIFFERENT than my Apple ID email address and password.                                             
    Does anyone know how I can locate my iCloud password?  My iCloud email address and password are DIFFERENT than my Apple ID email address and password.  Thank you.

    If you don't know the password, you will have to reset it as explained here: iCloud: Change your iCloud password.  9Don't be confused about the fact that the support article discusses resetting your Apple ID password.  Your iCloud ID is also and Apple ID, and you reset the password for and iCloud ID the same way you reset the password for any Apple ID.0

  • Can I use a different email address for the forums than my Apple ID?

    Hi,
    I generally use a particular email address for all my computer/IT forum questions.  This email address is different than my Apple ID email address.
    Can I change my forum email address (doesn't look that way) without changing my Apple ID address?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Fair warning... years ago I went with my work email address as my Apple ID. Now, with the advent of iCloud and all the other 'services' attached to your Apple ID, I find that half the time I cannot log into any one particular service. Apple's servers and ID system is getting way too messy. Keep it as simple as you can. If you add a different email address you are pretty much guaranteed that things will get more complicated.
    These days, to log into these forums I actually have to log into Apple Store first. The discussion log in page will not allow me to log in any longer.
    Keep it simple!

  • HT204053 I have an iCloud ID on my iPad 2 which is different to my Apple ID.  I don't know where the reset email is going to? It's not recognising my birthdate.  Could be a hacker.  What do I do?

    My iCloud Id is different to my Apple ID on my iPad 2. Trying to make them the same but cannot reset.  Reset goes to my Apple ID gmail.  This password is fine.  Gmail sees both my gmail addresses as belonging to the same person because they do.  One has a . in the name and one doesn't.  They marry up the two addresses.  This is confusing iCloud and Apple ID.  Have tried to access account through security questions but its not recognising my birthdate.  This is weird as no other matching names globally.  Maybe a hacker has taken over the iCloud account ID.  I'm not sure how to resolve.  Help please?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare (or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.
