Sign in Community with my old username

I'd already had a Community Name with my gmail, but now i can not use it anymore. When I enter Community with my Skype account, it keep asking me to make a new Community name with a new email. I want to ask how to get my old Community Name back, I have lots of things there including my private messages. The problem occured yesterday and i really look forward to your help soon

You need to use the same sign in method and credentials on the community sign in to access your old account. So if you signed in with Facebook before you need to do that again to access your older community account.

Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID

Every ten seconds my iPhone 6 asks me to sign into iCloud with an old id...passwords no longer work. Every 10 seconds! Help

Every 10 seconds my iPhone 6 prompts me to sign into iCloud with an old id that I have updated. Can't use old passwords...can't figure how to change settings to change to my new id. Very annoying....can anyone help?

So, if you changed your Apple ID to a new email address, but did not sign out of iCloud before doing so, you need to do the following:
1.     Go to Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the old email address. This is temporary. 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, and click on Sign Out. When it asks for the password, type in your current Apple ID password
3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID, and sign in with the old ID and current password and EDIT your Apple ID back to the new email address. You may have to verify it again
4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID

Cant sign into iTunes with VPP manager email address

Is anyone else having difficulty signing into iTunes with their Apple VPP account manager email address? I work as an IT contractor for a number of schools and in the past have set up VPP so that paid and free apps can be distributed via an MDM solution. Recently, the process by which we do this isn't working any more. Apple have admitted in emails that they have changed the way that VPP accounts are set up on their end and that during the transition some accounts were processed incorrectly (causing a lot of headaches and confusion). In one instance, we set up the VPP manager account using a distribution list email address of .*******. later, we enabled two step verification and provisioned the facilitator account. but when we sent to sign into the iTunes store with the management accounts email address, we got the error message: "this email is associated with he VPP program". We have told apple about this who replied with a frustrating tautology: "our records indicate that that address is associated with the VPP program, so you will have to use another email address to sign into iTunes." Trouble is, for the purposes of information management, we cant just sign into iTunes with any old email address, we have to use one provisioned by the education department, and they wont provision another email address for this.. Also, we have screenshots which demonstrate that it is possible to sign into iTunes with the program manager account at other schools, so what has changed? If this keeps up, I will have no choice but to recommend to all schools in future that they not go with Apple because their account provision system is not maintained at a professional level. The fact that they are so slow moving on this makes me look bad and the lack of documentation is inexcusable given the massive profits they have been posting. I will campaign vehemently against the use of apple in education unless this situation changes for the better. Already one school on our books have had an absolute gut-full of and have sold off the 60 iPads they purchased in favor of Android tablets with custom ROMS. What is the solution and why is there no phone number for Apple VPP in Australia?
<Edited by Host>

I know this post is over a year old. We setup our VPP account in Feb last year. It's very frustrating.
This is what I wrote to Apple.
This whole system *****!!!!
Seriously. I sign up under the old system and now we have to go through more doors to get in than a gold refinery.
You honestly think your product is worth this much pain. Get real!!!
I work at a school as THE ONLY IT Support Officer. I setup a generic user account for VPP under the old system so that the account was not tied to my name just in case I left or someone else had to take over the role. Now we cant use that account to manage the VPP account. We have to create other admin accounts. Trouble is, most of us already have our personal emails attached to iTunes accounts, AND YOUR SYSTEM WON'T LET US USE THESE ACCOUNTS TO BE ADMINS FOR OUR VPP ACCOUNT BECAUSE THEY ARE ALREADY ATTACHED TO AN ITUNES ACCOUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now I'm home and I can't remember my logon password and cant recall my recovery key because it's all back at work on a system I cant access until 2 weeks from now when the school holidays are over.
Well done Apple, you managed to make Microsoft look good!
The generic email account we setup is a distribution list account for the purposes of adding and removing people as needed. Apples change now means that we have to create more email accounts. I won't be doing that any time soon, I already have 5 and not about to create moer.
I too will not be recommending that schools go with Apple products. They are a consumer product, not an enterprise product. The promise you the world and all you get is pain.

Recipient based signing and encryption with S/MIME

Hi,
GPG for Mac has ABKey, this great plugin for address book that lets you define rules for each recipient whether you want to encrypt or sign your communication with that person. Is there any such thing for S/MIME encryption? One of my friends says he experiences problems because of the signature file that's sent with every email, and I would like to exclude him from my "signed mail list".

I get an error message when trying to sign into the support community with another Apple id. On the pick a username screen I get "an account utilizing this address already exists...." despite trying a few usernames. Anyone know how I can resolve this?

I get an error message when trying to sign into the support community with another Apple id. On the <pick a username> screen I get "an account utilizing this address already exists.Only one account per email address is allowed on the Apple Support Communities" despite trying a few usernames. Anyone know how I can resolve this?

This problem has been driving me demented. The instructions that Ivan gives have partially worked for me. By following his link
"How to find out if you have multiple Apple IDs" I was able to identify that yes I did have two apple accounts using the same e mail address. One was very old that I used to use for the forum boards and one is my much more recent ID that I use for everything these days. So I changed the e mail address for the old account which is associated with these discussion boards and that's the account that I am now posting this from. However even though the two accounts now have different e mail addresses when I try to log onto the boards with my more recent main apple ID I still get all the same errors as described at the start of this thread by rodgers_j. And of course that's the one I want to use so that I only have one itunes account for everything.
So if anyone has any more hints I'd be very grateful.

I have an IPad mini and I changed the Apple ID and the password almost one year ago and, for a while, a message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops- up constantly. My ICloud account is registered with an old email address and password. I do not remember the password to my ICloud account, and ID address that my ICloud account is registered under is an old email adress which is deleted right now (the old mail account is deleted). I don’t have a rescue email adress and I don’t know the answers to the security questions, so I have no way of changing the ICloud password. A message asking me to sign in to ICloud pops up constantly, but I always just hit cancel. However, now I am unable to access Find My IPad. How do I get my ICloud account changed and registered to be under my current Apple ID (email) and password? It is possible to set the device as New Ipad?

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 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.

I changed my Apple ID yesterday and got the email saying my new info was verified, however my IPAD still shows my old username and I can't sign in. Any ideas ?

I changed my apple ID and got verified but my IPAD still has the old username and won't let me sign in. Can anyone help ?

you have to go into Settings > Store > Apple ID: (your old ID should be there) Click on the old ID. Sign out. Then Sign in with your new ID.

I signed up yesterday with synch. I don't know my password and I need it to reset a new password. Please advise how to set a new password when I dont know old 1
I set it up on my "upstairs computer" and then came to my "downstairs computer" to synch and I can not get into the account because of the above password problem. I write down my passwords. I must have mistyped it or mis written.
I want to change my password

The new Sync version uses the Firefox account and stores the login data (username/email and password) under the https://accounts.firefox.com site heading in the Password Manager and use the signedInUser.json file in the profile folder to store the credentials once connected to the account to avoid having to enter the master password on each start.

I changed email address, now my phone keeps asking me for my Apple ID password with the old email address as the username, I am still able to access everything I need to but it keeps popping up

I changed my email address, now I constantly get a pop-up asking me for my Apple ID Password, showing my old email address. I am able to access everything but it is annoying.

Try:
Settings>Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...now sign back in with your new ID.

After changing my username on my laptop I can no longer log in (with new or old username). How can I fix this?

My laptop won't accept my username (or the old username) since I changed it (I wanted to shorten it). I originally thought it was the password so went through the process of reinstalling the system with the original disk (with apple support help over the phone), but that wasn't the problem. How do I get the computer to recognize my username? Thanks!

Yeah, you can't do that so easily...
Return to default desktop, apparent "loss" of home directory, (it can happen spontaneously too)...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107854
But you have worse problems now, might see if this works, but first...
Does it boot to Single User Mode, CMD+s keys at bootup, if so try...
/sbin/fsck -fy
Repeat until it shows no errors fixed.
(Space between fsck AND -fy important).
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Do not continue if it fails to repair the disk.
