Are you trying to change the Apple ID associated with your iCloud account? If so, 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.

I received a 1st Gen IPad from a supplier as a gift to promote their products. They used their Apple account to load the apps. I am not able to load my own apps because their apple user is the one that pops up. How can I change it to mine?

Set it up as new device, explained in this article, without using the backup afterwards:

Go to setting on the devices and change the information
Settings
iTunes and App Store
Account
(Change account)
Also settings
Mail, contacts, calendars
Account
(Change account)
Same for everything else that uses your email address. Facebook, Twitter, iCloud, on and on.

I bought pages ages ago using an iTunes account that no longer works as the email address has been closed down. How can I now update my Pages app, if it asks me to sign in using this now defunct email address?

All apps are always tied to the account from whaich they were purchased and will always have to be updated using that account.
Just because the e-mail account is shut down, has nothing to do with the itunes account. Why did you create a new account? Why not just change the e-mail associated with the old account?

Asking me to verify from an email address that no longer exists, help?

When I go into settings and go to the iCloud tab, it asks me to verify from an email account which no longer exists, can somebody please help, it would be greatly appreciated
Thanks :)

If I'm not mistaken, you should have set 2 questions and answers as extra security for your account. Try logging in and answering these questions, you will then be able to change your email address.

Aperture wont start , it needs an update and is telling me to log onto a hotmail account that no longer exists so I am stuck .I would even re-purchase aperture just to get up and running again but I cant do that either - help, I need these photographs !

Aperture wont start when I booted up this morning . There is an upgrade that it needs to install and I am being directed to log onto a hotmail account that does not exist to install it . I cant get any sense out of hotmail and the account has been deleted because I have never used it .
I need to get into my files asap but I am just going around in circles - please help - anyone ?

APERTURE was bought via the Apple On Line Store .
I kew there is an update cause when I clicked on updates , there was an update that I needed cause Aperture was not running as it should ie . it would not load
I am running Mavericks OS.
My Apple ID is the same as my email account but I have discovered that I have two Apple ID accounts and I could not remember my password on the one that I used to download the original Aperture - I have since contacted Apple and they have merged the two so Ihave sorted it out that way .
When Aperture would not start , it wasn't asking me to log onto my email account, it was asking me for my Apple ID which was the same thing but it was my emergency ID and I could not remember the password . Being enturely thick where computers are concerned , I got very confused and remain confused because having bought a new MACBOOK AIR , I find it wont recognise my back up hard drive or my AIRPORT so I am not having a great time with MAC products to be honest - cant get my business back up and running after nearly three weeks so Apple and MAC are not my favourite words !
Anyway, I did get it sorted finally by ringing Apple but thanks for replying anyway - it turned out that Aperture was the very least of my problems when my hard drive failed installing Mavericks - wasnt Mavericks fault, my drives have to work hard and it just died .

How do I change my iCloud ID on my iPhone which an email address that no longer exists

How do I change my iCloud ID on my iPhone which an email address that no longer exists

Welcome to the Apple community.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

I recently purchased a new Iphone 5C and want to give my Iphone4S to my husband to use. An old email id that no longer exists keeps popping up and I cannot restore the 4S to factory settings so he can use it as his own. Any suggestions?

I recently purchased a new Iphone 5c and gave my 4s to my husband to use. However an old email address of mine keeps popping up that no longer exists and I don't know what the password was
and I cannot restore the 4s to factory settings. Is there any resolution for this?

Find My iPhone Activation Lock
Find My iPhone Activation Lock- Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
The problem is covered in the above links. Unless you know the Apple ID and password used to set up the Find My Phone lock originally, then the phone is useless. If you have proof of ownership and that you are the original purchaser, then you can ask Apple to release it from the activation lock.

My new iPad has the wrong iCloud account (restored an old backup from previous iPad). It's pointing to an account that no longer exists and now I can't delete it because I can't log into it. Find my iPhone wants me to log in before deleting the account.

I have an old iPad2, and received a new iPad Air. When I set up the iPad Air, I started as a backup from the iPad2, instead of treating it as a new iPad setup. It also asked if I wanted to set up Find My iPhone and I said yes. Problem is that I also (previously) changed the primary email address on my iCloud account, but never changed the iCloud setup on my iPad. So now the iPad Air has iCloud pointing to the email address as the account name. I want to just delete this account and enter the new email, but Find My iPhone won't let me - it asks for my password first. Problem is, it won't accept the correct password because the primary email has changed.

If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go 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, 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.

HT1420 How do I authorize music I purchased a few years ago from an account that no longer exists? The music shows up in my library, but it won't play. I can no longer access that email account because it was disabled...anyone can help?

I purchased a bunch of music years ago with an old email account and password and then switched (before I understood about the apple account thing) and now the music will show up on my new computer but I can't authorize it to play because the old account is disabled and I can't remember my password!!!!!!
HELP!!!
Anyone else find a solution to this?
Am I the only idiot who has done this?
Thanks in advance

Hey there~ I had a similar experience, when the email I used to set up the account was hacked and subsequently shut down by Hotmail. If you contacted Support to change the name, but not the email address, you will need to do so again.
Also worth noting~ if, at any time, you synced your device to your work computer, you'll need to contact Support to deauthorize it and enable your current one.
Good luck!

HT204053 I changed my apple id and changed it in all of my settings except for iCloud. The iCloud app will only let me change the password to an account that no longer exists. How do I change the id without losing all of my information stored on the cloud

How do I change my apple Id for iCloud without losing my information I already stored? I tried going into settings then ICloud but it would not let me change my apple id only my password.

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.

Icloud wont let me keep selected song on my phone, only at random. How can I change that?

So basically I want selected songs to stay on my ipod, not have them on my phone at random. Is there any way to select genres/playlist, etc. to stay on my ipod. I dont always have connection to 3g or wifi. This is driving me nuts! I like icloud for everything EXCEPT this

If you're using iTunes Match, you can download an entire Artist or Playlist by selecing it, the tapping the download symbol (cloud with downward point arrow). It appears at the top for an artist, and the bottom for a playlist.
Or, you can turn off iTunes Match on your device, sync the music to it using iTunes, then turn iTunes Match Back on.

My iPhone is trying to verify an email address that no longer exists,

i can't even use the information on how to change the apple ID to my new email address because the phone is constantly trying to verify the old address... i have no idea how to do this...

Hello peterkellygolf,
I'm not sure where you are seeing the prompt for your older Apple ID, but there are several articles about changing the ID.
iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
And here's a good one for all the places you may need to change it.
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
