New Apple ID Won't Update on iPhone 4

I recently had to create a new Apple ID because my old one, which I forgot the password to, represented an old email address I no longer have access to. So I created the new Apple ID. I can access my accounts via that new Apple ID on my MacBook Pro, but my iPhone 4 continues to show the old Apple ID. How do I update my iPhone 4 with the new Apple ID I created?

Oops, not sure how this post showed up in the iPod touch section. Anyway, over a year without access, but when I recently upgraded the OS, I had to use a password to get back into all my apps and I was dead in the water. Well your advice worked. Thank you!

My new Apple TV won't be recognized by my IPhone Air-Play. I made sure the home sharing is on and that both Devises are I the same network. The IPhone see the other two Apple TVs at my house, but for some reason it won't see the third one I just added.

Check to see if AirPlay is actually turned on. (in Settings on the ATV)
Also, make sure it's not sitting directly next to your router; interference

Apple TV Won't Update to 2.4

Hey everyone hopefully I have an easy question. My Apple TV won't update to the new 2.4 software. It still shows that I have 2.3.1, but when I go to update the software it says that I have the latest version. What can I do!

Hi there,
got the same problem! Wont update. Seeing the apple for 1 second and right back to menu. I cant even reset or restore to factory settings..... Same deal, the apple for 1 second and back to the menu.
Im only experiencing these issues. besides them, my apple tv runs great without any problems.
This is what i can imagine. I did a hard drive upgrade myself. Running 320gb now. Maybe i left the os boot partition read only??? Anybody? On the other hand i did some firmware upgrades before without those issues.

I created a new Apple ID for iCloud on my iPhone, but I can't seem to find a way to "sign out" or "log out" of that Apple ID (for iCloud) to sign in with another Apple ID. The only account login I could change was the Store. How do I "log out"

I created a new Apple ID for iCloud on my iPhone, but I can't seem to find a way to "sign out" or "log out" of that Apple ID (for iCloud) to sign in with another Apple ID. The only account login I could change was the Store.
How do I "log out" or "sign out" of iCloud on my iPhone? There is an option to delete the account, but I just want to log off. I want to keep the account name for future use.

Turn off iCloud completely
Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
Note: If you delete your iCloud account, iCloud will no longer back up your iOS data. You can still back up your device in iTunes (for more information, open iTunes and choose iTunes > Help).
On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.
If your Mac has OS X v10.7.5 and you turn off iCloud, your calendar information and reminders aren’t stored locally in iCal. If you want to retain your calendar and reminder information, you need to back it up before turning off iCloud. For more information, see the Apple Support article iCloud: Calendar & reminder data removed from Calendar and Reminders or iCal when disabling iCloud Calendar.
On your Windows computer, open the iCloud Control Panel, then click Sign Out.
Note: If you turned on automatic download of music, app, or book purchases (in iTunes preferences or in Settings on your iOS device), your iTunes purchases are still downloaded to your devices.

OK I think the problem is probably related to the platform swap and you may need your account re-set. Only Adobe staff can do that. You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
1. Adobe Photoshop Elements
2. Adobe ID, and signing-in
3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”
It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. Have your serial number and previous case number available. The agent can directly troubleshoot your system if you agree to activate the Adobe Connect add-on.

My new apple ID isn't updating on my iPhone

I recently canceled an old eamil accountm which was attached to my Apple ID name. I have changed to a new Apple ID using a different email and username. My MacBook and iTunes are now using the new ID, but I can't seem to get my iPhone to update to the new ID as well. Help!

Sorry, the first sentence was meant to say ' I've been using my Apple ID for 2 years now and my computer is authorised for it' ......

I changed my apple ID email address and now all my devices are signed in under the old apple ID, but it wont let me change the icould account on any without a password. The problem is my new password for the new apple ID won't work or the old? help!!!!

Help me!! I changed my email address associated with apple Id. Now ALLLLL my devices (iphone, mac, ipad) are associated with old apple Id. But It won't log out or delete the old one without having a password. Neither the old passowrd or the new password works. Now nothign works. Please help me!!

Hello Alexandra,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with iCloud on your devices after updating your Apple ID. I recommend the following steps:
Symptoms
iOS 7 may ask for the password to your previous Apple ID when you sign out of iCloud.
Resolution
1. Use your current Apple ID password
Trying using your current Apple ID password. If that doesn't work, continue to the next step.
2. Sign out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime
If you are currently signed in to iMessage or FaceTime
If you are not signed in to iMessage or FaceTime
3. Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't work, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud and try to sign out.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud and sign in with the new Apple ID.

ITunes Match won't update on iPhone

Recently, I noticed that iTunes Match on my iPhone won't update my music. I've added some new music to my iTunes and updated iTunes Match on my Mac, but the songs won't appear on my iPhone. I've even tried connecting my phone to my Mac and manually adding the music, but that doesn't work either. I've tried restating the music app, turning iTunes Match off/on, updating Match again on iTunes, etc. Nothing works and it's getting really, really annoying!

Hi fnaber0412,
If you are having issues with your iPhone not updating your music from iTunes Match, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Next, I would try restarting the iPhone -
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

I have an old apple ID that is associated with an email I can no longer access, but over half of my apps are associated with this Apple ID. Any idea on how to reset the apps to go with my newer Apple ID without completely wiping my iPhone?

I have an iPhone 4s. The email I need to use is completely locked because Windows believed someone else was trying to use my account (another reason Windows and I don't seem to get along). Anyway, I think my little sister may have accidentally clicked "Forgot my Password" while trying to download an app on my iPad that was under the same ID. So, an email was sent to my old hotmail account that is lockedried unlocking it, but the alternate email that was listed was an old one of my moms and she can't remember what her username was. I tried answering security questions on my Apple ID to maybe get my password to reset that way, but - since I made this account when I was about 12 or 13 - I can't even begin to remember what the answers to the security questions are. (And before anyone gets on a pedestal about how I was too young to be doing something like this, I did have parent supervision and wanted something like this of my own, so lets stick to the ACTUAL problem). So, main problem here. I now have about 30 app updates that are under an account I basically have no access to. I've deleted the apps from my home screen and tried downloading them with my new Apple ID, but it shows as if it's stored in the cloud and will only let me download it from the old Apple ID. Is there any possible way to dissociate my apps from my old ID and associate them with my newer one WITHOUT completely resetting my phone?

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

HT204053 I changed my Apple ID (email address) to a new Apple ID (email address), but my iPhone is asking for my password on my old email address which has been discontinued, now I can not get into iCloud or add Apps because the old email and password do

I recently changed my Apple ID (to my new email address), but my iPhones are still showing my old Apple ID and are asking for my old password. It no longer exists and now I can not add any Apps or get into iCloud because they previous ID no longer exists but that is what is popping up in Apple ID box and I cannot change it on the phone. How do I get my new Apple ID assigned to my phone(s)?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If it's iCloud that is asking for these details:
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.
This article provides more information about Activation Lock.
If it's iTunes asking for these details:
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

How do I change to my new apple ID in icloud on my iphone?

When I first got my iPhone my now ex-husband did all the set up. He used HIS email address though for the Apple ID and iCloud and had everything synced. I have not backed up my phone in months mainly because I have no storage left in iCloud and I don't want him accessing all my personal stuff since he has all the account passwords.
I've since made myself a NEW apple ID and my new ID is in the iStore. I would now like to change or create a new iCloud associated with MY email address and new apple ID. When I go to settings it's greyed out, and won't let me change the email associated with the account and tells me the user name and password is incorrect (I'm assuming he removed my phone from the iCloud account and only has his iPod on it now).
I'm afraid to delete the account and try logging in with my new info because everywhere I read says my info is backed up in iCloud but I no longer have access to the original iCloud account....
Please help! I have texts that must be backed up for legal purposes!
Thanks

Change Apple ID and App updating on iPhone

Hello,
i've changed my apple id from http://appleid.apple.com
On my iPhone, AppStore asks new account access to install new apps. For apps installed before appleid changement, AppStore asks password for old appleid.
How i can solve this?
Thank you.

You will have to use that apple id and password in order to update the app.
as all apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase/download.
You can't use your new apple id to update it.
