My old telephone number is stored in Facetime. How do I change?

I recently recieved a Mac. I also have a knew phone, same number. My old phone (that husband is using) is stored and I can't use FACEtime correctly. Help...

Edbarb,
I'm using Snow Leopard 10.6.8 here, so I'm not sure if this will apply to your Mt. Lion operating system.
When I make changes to my address book application, the changes are immediately imported to my Facetime contacts list. Also, if a contact is deleted from my Facetime contacts list, it is also deleted from my addressbook app. In other words, Facetime mimics Addressbook and Addressbook mimics Facetime.

Skip the iCloud sign in for now.
Once you reach the home page, go to settings and sign out of FaceTime and Messages. This should also sign you out of iCloud.
Go to iCloud in settings and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
If that does not work
Skip the iCloud sign in
Go to Apple ID.apple.com and sign in
Change your Apple ID to the old one
Delete iCloud account on your device with the old Apple ID and the same password.
Go back to the website, change your Apple ID back to the current one. You will receive an email to verify the account. Verify first.
Sign into iCloud on your device with the correct Apple ID and password

Facetime is using my husband's cell phone number instead of mine? How can I change the number in face time?

Facetime is using my husband's cell phone number instead of mine. How can I change the number to mine in face time?

You need to set up the accounts in System Preferences/Accounts, then activate Fast User Switching.
That way you can quickly log in to your own account - then back to his.
You should obviously have different passwords.

TS2565 when updated to 9.1.7 from 9. I need new serial and the old serial number doesn't work. How can i solve this?

There was no new serial needed to update from Logic 9 to 9.1.7
If your Logic 9 was an upgrade from Logic 8 it may be asking you for your original Logic 8 Full serial first and then your Logic 9 Upgrade serial...
Otherwise, it's best to call Apple directly and get them to help you...

Try going into your account details on iTunes, change your info there, then sync your devices.

Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.

I changed my AppleID, but iCloud still has the old email address on my phone. How do I change that? It keeps asking me to input my password, but obviously that won't work because the ID is wrong not the password.

Then change your Apple ID back to the old ID, then delete the account. Once done, change your ID to your new one.

Hi Terri571,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
See these steps for setting up Wi-Fi syncing between your iPhone and new computer:
iOS: Syncing with iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1386
Wi-Fi syncing
Open iTunes
To set up Wi-Fi syncing, connect your iOS device to your computer with the included USB cable. Select your device under Devices on the left-hand side.
In the Summary tab, select "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi".
Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it. The iOS device will sync automatically when all of the following are true:
The iOS device is plugged in to power
iTunes is open on the computer
The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network
While the iOS device appears in the left-hand column of iTunes, you can select the content tabs and configure sync options.
Click Apply or Sync to sync the iOS device.
If the iOS device does not appear in the Devices section or you are unable to sync, please see this article for troubleshooting.
Best,
Jeremy

Help! Retrieving an old telephone number

I have just started renting a house, a very old one which has been in the same family for many years. The property has had the same telephone number for 3 generations. For reasons that are too complicated, there was a gap between the last tenant keeping the number and me taking it over. BT cut the line off and won't give me the old number. How can I retrieve this old number? It's v important. Thanks.

Hi and welcome to the forum You could try ringing the service dept on 0800 800 150 and requesting a number change, there will be a charge for this. Then ask if the number you want is available they should be able to check if it is available. Do you know if the number is spare? have you tried to call it?

Recently our credit card number was stolen and the account was shut down. We will be getting a new number. My question is how do I change my itunes or app store account numbers? I found account editing info for the Verizon 3G account, but not the other

Recently our credit card number was stolen and the account was closed. My question is how do I put the new number on my itunes and app store accounts? I found the account editing info the Verizon 3G account, but haven't found it for those others.

Personally, I suggest you don't put a credit card in your iTunes account until you are actually going to make a purchase. Then there's no chance of anyone using it or your iTunes account for purchases.
To remove the old card number, edit the account (as mentioned in the previous posts above) and select None.

I have some apps on my iPad that were installed using an old apple ID. They can't be updated because the old ID is no longer valid. How can I change the apple ID associated with these apps?

I installed some apps using an apple I'd that is no longer active. I can't update them because it asks for the password of the old I'd instead of the I'd I currently use. How can I change the apple I'd associated with these apps? I still want to use them. One app I paid for using the old I'd. The other app is free. I have already tried deleting them and reinstalling them.

If you simply just changed the email associated with that appleid you can just delete and Re-download the apps.
You can verify the above step by going to the App Store on device > Updates>Purchased - if you see the app there just delete it from the home screen and redownload from the purchased section
Now if you got rid of that account entirely, you will have to delete and re-purchase on your new account

HT4436 When I first purchased an iPhone, I used an email I no longer have access too when creating my account. I've changed this email for my regular iTunes account, but the cloud defaults to the old email address as the account. How do I change this?

How do I change an iCloud account using an old email address I no long have access too?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
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 using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

When I registered my iPhone I put in the worng number and saved it. How do I change it?

When I registered this iPhone I already had iTunes account so it pre-set the iPhone number to my home phone number. How do I change it?!

Hi,
Launch iTunes. Select iTunes Store on the left side of the iTunes window.
From the menu bar click Store / View My Account.
Click: Edit Payment Information
You can change the phone number there. Make sure and click Done when you're finished.
