SOS!! HELP! My iCloud keeps trying to log in with my old e-mail account and I have to access to it anymore, I changed the iCloud e-mail!! HELP I can't update anything!!!
So my e-mail got hacked and I had to create a new one and change all the programs, apps, etc that where linked to it; I also changed my iCloud e-mail but my mac and iPhone won't allow me to change the e-mail in the iCloud settings, please help!! I've already erased my iPhone completely but can't afford to erase everything in my computer! What can I do????
You need to go to System Preferences>iCloud and click 'Sign Out'. Then sign back in with the new ID, and enable the data types you want to sync in the checklist there. Your iCloud data will disappear from your Mac when you sign out but will reappear (give it time) when you sign back in.

Somebody help me My Mac is lagging big and whenever I click on something it just goes to the spinning wheel of death I can't do anything I need help
What model year Mac and what version of OS X are you running.
If this is on an older Mac with standard Rotating HDD it could be a sign the HDD is either to full of data or it is starting to fail. It could also be caused by 3rd party software you've installed. -
Old email is closed. I have no access to it. Cannot change email address for icloud in system preferences,does anyone have a way this can be corrected? I don't have access to icloud.
Hi Joycars,
Can you not simply sign out of the iCloud account with the incorrect email? Not sure I'm following?

Game center keeps logging me out, and then tries to log in with an old email address!
It will stay logged in for so long and then I will open an app and it will ask me to log in with my old email address, which has been deleted from everywhere I can think of. Help!!!!!
I've tried all the tricks but have the same issue. iPad 2 with latest iOS update. If I force close all apps and power off then go into settings and sign into Game Center again it stays ok for about a day. But then it's back to signing in every few minutes as I switch games. Apple it's on you now!

Changed my apple id and pswd but now mac book pro keeps trying to log in with old id
Changed my apple id and password but Mac Book Pro keeps trying to contact iCloud with old id. Of course, the password no longer works because I just changed it. Help?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button) -
My wife and I have separate AppleID accounts. Ever since she updated to the iPhone 5c, for some reason when she tries to update her apps, it comes up with my AppleID and asks for my password. I cannot figure out why this happening and how to fix this. Please help!
I have had this issue lately.
I can only put it down to using the one computer to update all our IPads for me and my wife.
Some of our apps, although downloaded from both our seperate accounts on our IPads, are the same.
However after plugging her IPad into the computer when my AppleID is on ITunes, I think something strange has happened and when she then tries to update Apps on her IPad and I try on mine it now asks for the others Apple ID password.
The only way I have found to counteract this is to update an app one at a time, if that app asks for your wifes password then delete it and then reinstall it.
That has solved it for me.
Hope this helps -

The problem is, the email never arrives in my mailbox. Now my phone says "check email" and lists the proper email account that i supplied while trying to set up icloud, however, it is all 'grayed' out and no touch screen action can be performed.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. -
somehow I have made an iCloud account that is not verified and is asking me to check an email address that is of that account and also incorrect. How do I change the name of this incorrect icloud account/email address?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If it's the iCloud email address that is incorrect, you cannot change it. If it's a non iCloud address, you can change it at My Apple ID -
Shouldn't there be a way to view what has been purchased and when on your account!!! Or at the very least I should be able to speak to SOMEBODY about my account!
You have always been able to view your purchase history. Go to your account in the itunes store. The drop down menu will show when you click the arrow next to your user name.

My sister got the 5S, so she has given me her old 4S. She got the IMEI code from her network to allow me to unlock it. When I plug the phone into my computer, how do I use the IMEI code to unlock it on iTunes. The text my sis got from O2 says, "Apple have confirmed the iPhone IMEI 01.....etc. is set to unlock. To complete, connect the device to iTunes with a SIM never used in the iPhone". But I'm not sure what to do, I already connecting the iPhone with my SIM to iTunes... What next? Also how do I change the iCloud account connected to the phone (hers) to my own?
Thanks.Please see your duplicate post below.

My old nternet account was cancelled and with it my emails. I updated my apple id and password in all my devices (ipad, iphone, imac, except for my moms iphone. I am trying to log out from my old account and set her up with her own apple ID and iCloud etc but it does not let me log out. I have a notebook with all my passwords in it so I know for a fact the password for the old ID/ email is correct yet a window keeps popping up that it is incorrect. I have spent hours reading and trying to fix it myself and nothing is working, same window keeps popping up. Any ideas on what to do? I have an iphone 4S, all software up to date and I made sure my moms phone is also updated. Thank you, any help is greatly appreciated.
Hi ccharat,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you did a good job editing your Apple ID and primary email address, but you didn’t sign out of iCloud on your iOS device before hand. What you may need to do in this situation is go back to the Apple ID website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the email address that is signed in with iCloud (there is no need to verify the account after editing it back to the old account, just changing it back is enough). Once your Apple ID is back to the original account, delete the iCloud account from the iOS device and be sure to keep all info on the device when prompted. After you delete the iCloud account, go back to the website and edit your Apple ID and primary email address back to the new address. Once it is back to the account you would like, you can sign into the iCloud on the iOS device with that new account and merge all of the data when prompted. Please use the following article as a reference.
iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5223
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Go to Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap “Keep on My [Device]” or “Delete from My [Device].” In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
I hope this helps,

i dont remember the first apple id that link with my clash of clans apps. the problem now is i need to link my COC village and it keep saying "please log in with correct game center" is there anyway that i can retrieve my old apple id? please help me i dont want to lose my village, i have spent my money on that game to much. hmmm
thanks mate, but the problem is im using different apple id now, and after about 1 year play coc and today i want to link the village , suddenly coc said that
thats mean im playing this village with different apple id and it not saved. and the problem is i dont remember the first apple id and password that i use first time to download this game. hmmm it was so confusing, why coc and game center just make this thing saved with a new game center account. -
I have tried to log into clash of clans on my iPad and it just keeps going to a new game rather than the one saved on my iPhone. I have been using the game centre and same user name and password ?
I have the same problem.. EXACTLY. . When phoning Apple Support they had trouble understanding my problem and couldnt find any type of solution. No one seems to take responsibility for GameCenter issues. The assistant escalated the problem but no one could find an answer. .
The only idea was to set up a new apple id, hence a new GameCenter account. . But that would loose all the itunes data. Anyone got ideas ? -
