How do you change the Apple ID for my iPhone 4?
How do you change the Apple ID for my iPhone 4. I am able to access my iTunes account using my new ID and password on my computer; however, my iphone has a different Apple ID and I do not have cannot access iTunes on this phone.
Also, if you have iCloud, you will probably also want to change the iCloud account on the phone to be yours:
Settings>iCloud - if Account is not yours, go to the bottom and Delete Account. Then sign back on with your iCloud account info.

How do I change the apple id for iCloud on my iPhone4?, How do I change the apple id for iCloud on my iPhone4?
When you go into iCloud there is an option to delete the account. The help desk advised me that using this option only deletes it on the phone and not the actual Apple ID. If you delete it you are given an option to keep content associated with this ID on the phone, which may be a good idea unless you want to completely refresh your phone.
Once you delete the account, you can then enter a new Apple ID.
I've just done it and it worked fine, leaving the original Apple ID intact and working on another phone. -
HT5622 How do I change the Apple ID for iCloud on my phone?
I have changed my Apple ID. It works on all aspects of my phone except iCloud where I cannot change the Apple ID. It keeps asking for the password for my old ID and will not allow me to change the ID for iCloud in my phone. I have logged out using my Apple ID in settings and signed in again. This did not change it in iCloud.
Does anyone know how to fix this?Nonie63 wrote:
Just tried this myself and it said it would delete all contacts documents stored in icloud.
This is incorrect.
If you go to Settings > iCloud and delete the account, nothing in iCloud is deleted. -

How do I change the apple Id for iCloud in my iPhone
Trying to make two IDE match
If you have not used your second appleID for iCloud before, you can just go to settings and then iCloud, and delete your account there. When prompted, do NOT delete your data from the phone. Then sign in with your second Apple ID, and it will push all your data to the second AppleID and make it an iCloud account.

I have purchased a new iPad and given my old one to my husband. How do I change the Apple ID over to him. We are having continuous confusion between the two iPads
Hi Marg42,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
First, your husband can create his own Apple ID via the web, computer, or iPad, if he hasn't already:
My Apple ID
https://appleid.apple.com
iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2731
Next, he can sign out of the Apple services that are currently using your Apple ID on your old iPad, and sign in with his own.
This article has instructions for doing so for specific Apple services:
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
Alternately, he can erase the device and set it up as new using the steps in this article:

My wife and I each have an apple ID for our ipad. How do we change the apple ID on our ipad for Iclouds? Can't seem to do it.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

2 different iphones have the same Apple ID, how can I change the apple ID on one of them but not delete the other iphone's data and media?
You don't have to do anything with the first iPod that you don't use anymore. If you are planning on keeping it, put in a drawer in your house and forget about it.
You don't need a second account to use with the new iPod. I use one Appl e ID and iTunes library for two iPods, and two iPad. I have different content on all four devices. You can select exactly what you want to sync to each device and it can be different content on all devices. -
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 -
I received what appears to be a reconditioned iPod Touch 4th for Christmas. How do I change the Apple ID on the device to my ID so I can use my iTunes account? Thanks for any help/
It would probably be best to attach the iPod to a computer and restore it. This way you'll know it's wiped clean. Then, when you start up the iPod it will ask you for your Apple ID.

How do I change the apple id on the copy of Lion that shipped with my Macbook Pro?
I've inherited a Macbook Pro that shipped with Lion installed. The app store is showing three updates for iPhoto, GarageBand, and iMovie. When I try to update them it request the password for the Apple ID for the person who set up the Macbook. These apps came with Lion which came with the Macbook. I could reload the OS but that would wipe out my configuration. How can I change the Apple ID to reflect me as the new owner so I can update the apps included with Lion? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
If you know the seller, then maybe it can be done; according to the licensing agreement, if you sell/gift a Mac which came with Lion preinstalled, you are allowed to make a one time transfer of your software license. That would involve a call to Apple (I've not had to do this, but I've read that you need to call Apple and explain that you wish to transfer the Lion license from xxxxx to xxxxxx - don't know if it involves name/address or any other info). So, if your seller is willing to do this, and Apple re-registers the MBP in your name, you shouldn't have to do anything. You may want to check into this because it also may play a role when there is an OS update - not sure that you'll be able to get that with your different Apple ID.

I have a different Apple id on my PowerBook from that on my iMac and iPad. Photo Stream does not connect to my Powerbook. How do I change the Apple id in iCloud on my PowerBook? Will this link all 3 machines to PhotoStream?
You can't simply change the details.
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)
