    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, 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 iPhone on your device, 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.

  • I have apps that needs to be updated that shows my old account. How do I delete this info without losing my purchases? The old account was hacked and I do not want to update anything using that account! Help. Wonderer

    I have apps that needs to be updated that shows my old account. How do I delete this info without losing my purchases?

    iTunes purchases cannot be transferred between accounts. If you no longer wish to use the old account at all, you should delete those apps and repurchase them with the new account.
    On the other hand, you could also (and should have before creating a new account - contact iTunes support to deal with account security: https://getsupport.apple.com/Issues.action

  • I gave my old iPhone to my partner. We reset it and set up new e-mail accounts for her.   But in Settings the iCloud account is still in my name . How do we change this?

    I gave my partner my old 3GS.  Everything worked well for a couple of years.  Then a week ago she was not able to use her gmail and yahoo e-mail accounts. With the yahoo account she is being asked to give my ID and password.  We have deleted and restored the accounts.
    WHen I look at settings, it appears in ICloud that the phone is still registered in my name?  How do we change this?  In doing so will she lose all her information from the past two years?
    We backed up the phone to a pc two days ago.
    MY worry is that the backup has the incorrect information so we may get into a cycle of restoring it and not fixing the problem.
    Regards

    have you logged out with the old appleID in settings->itunes & app stores ?

  • HT204053 I have changed my apple ID, but the account info on iCloud is still showing my old ID. How do I change the account name/ID for iCloud?

    I have changed my Apple ID but the account info on iCloud is still referencing the old ID. How do I change the iCloud account details?

    If you simply renamed your ID, you can go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account.  This will delete the account from your phone (but not from iCloud) as well as any synced data.  But provided you are signing back into the same account (just with a new name) it will be synced back to your device when you sign back in.  Then set up your iCloud account with the new ID name and turn syncing back on.  If you have photos in your photo stream album that are older than 30 days that you don't have anywhere else, you will need to save these to your camera roll before deleting the account. To do this, open your photo stream album on your iPhone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos to select them, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    If, however, you are changing to a new ID you'll have to delete the account, create a new account with the other ID, and migrate your data to the new account.  To do this, first go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPhone.  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (Be sure to save any photo stream photos to your camera roll prior to deleting the account, as mentioned above.)  Next, set up a new iCloud account using your new ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

  • I am trying to set up my new replacement phone and the iCloud account is using my old email that is no longer activated, so I am not able to reset my password in order to set up messaging, etc. What do I do??

    I am trying to set up my new replacement phone and the iCloud account is using my old email that is no longer activated, so I am not able to reset my password in order to set up messaging, etc. What do I do??

    Try to change your Apple ID back to your old email address (http://appleid.apple.com) in order to set up and activate the phone. After the set up please sign out of iCloud and turn off "Find My iPhone" (Settings > iCloud) - do that on all your devices -, then change your Apple ID to your new address again and then add your iCloud account on you devices again.

    You don't need to maintain all versions of the upgrade chain, but many of us do in case we need to work on a legacy file. If you want to rmove a version, though, ti should be done BEFORE installing the later one. Just reinstall CS5 and things should get back to normal.

    I think what is happening is that you changed the email address for password recovery to the new one - the Appleid (and software "attached" to it) remain irrevokably linked to the id you purchased it with.

  • When saving my illustrator file to a pdf it doesnt show all the artwork ie boxes are hidden in the pdf or only showing part of them. How can I fix this?

    when saving my illustrator file to a pdf it doesnt show all the artwork ie boxes are hidden in the pdf or only showing part of them. Even some text is hidden. I have flattened the artwork so everything is in one layer. How can I fix this?

    Hi John
    I have indicated on the attached jpeg where the problem is, basically a line of text is missing at the top and part of the feeding diagram is missing. I created the artwork in different layer and then flattened. All text has been converted to outlines, however the areas being affected have no transparency, I have used solid fills or no fills. I get the same result when I export the file as a jpeg. Hope you can help.

  • I have a new Mac Mini. When I start it, the message and mail program's open automatically. How do I change this?

    When I boot up my Mac Mini, the mail and message program's open automatically. How do I stop this?
    I heard that all program's that are open when shutting down, will open again on booting up. I always close all program's before shutting down!

    Go to preferences and General and be sure the box is checked that states to close all programs on exit.  Also, right clcik your mail icon in the dock and under options be sure the open at login is not checked.

  • Delete the iCloud account associated with an old email address no longer in use...Help!

    I am trying to delete the iCloud account on my iPhone that is associated with an old email address no longer in use, so I can set it up with my new email address.   I am unable to delete the account until I turn off "Find my iPHone" which it won't let me do unless I log in under the old email address.....  Problem is, I don't remember the password for the old address/account.   It is no longer functional so I cannot request a reminder.  I've already updated my iTunes/Apple ID with my new email address. I'm stuck!!  Help!

    You remember the answers to the security questions or you call Apple, talk to someone in account security, and prove to them that you own the account.

  • My iCloud Account is displayed with an old ID. How do I change this? Additionally, I have forgotten the password associated with the old ID.

    When I tap the Settings icon on my iPhone 4S Home screen, and then scroll down and tap “iCloud”, my iCloud Account is displayed with a previous email address which is no longer in use.
    When I scroll down and tap “Delete Account”, I’m prompted for the Apple ID password associated with the old email address to turn off Find My iPhone?
    I do not know the password for this old Account, and the email is no longer accessible so I'm unable to delete the account.
    Therefore, how can I match my iPhone iCloud Account to my MacBook Pro iCloud Account which uses my new email address and password?

    I have the same problem , can anyone help??
