Try going 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. Then 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.

TS2446 Fuc!!!!!!!! Yahoo disabled my Yahoo email address as there had been a breach is security. So I could no longer buy apps or update. I created a whole new Apple ID. But my iPhone still comes up with the old email address and I can't seem to get rid

I'm ready to stop using itunes the ID change of email address is killing me! Help

Well, your first mistake was making a new Apple ID. You only needed to go into Manage your Apple ID and change the Apple ID from the Yahoo email to your new email. Then, all the purchases you made with that old Apple ID would still be tied to your updated Apple ID.
As it is, you now have a totally new Apple ID, but the purchases you made with that old Apple ID are still (and will forever be) tied to it.
Your best bet is to log into Manage your Apple ID with the old ID (regardless of what Yahoo did with it, it is still a functional Apple ID, unless you had that disable for security reasons). Once you have logged into it, change the password on it to match the password on your new ID. Then when you are asked for a password to update an app, it won't matter which of the two Apple IDs is displaying. You will just type in the same password and your app will be updated.

HT4759 Help, I can not get my iphone to change my email. I changed it on icloud and itunes and it comes up correctly there. I have synced my phone hooked to computer. all updates are done. The phone will not come up with the new email soI cant use icloud

It is correct everywhere except on my iphone. It came over correctly to my iPAD but won't on my phone. I also can't use the icloud push or load my icloud storage plan to my phone. Please help...

Welcome to the Apple Community.
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")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
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)
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 > 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.

Can I change my email address and password on itunes but still open it with the old email and password since my husband has and uses the other email account?

Purchased iphone years ago using our only email address and recently this year my husband finally decided to get the iphone 4 using our email with no intentions on syncing it to computer. In July I purchased the iphone4 and just recently installed the upgrade ios5 and since then decided to get my own email address but all my devices and itunes account is under our email address and not my new address. Now he decides to upgrade his phone to ios5 and now we get each others new apps, music and if we get texted though imessage. I assume this is because we have the same email and password account.
How can i change the itune account to my new e-mail address, but my husband keep the same itunes login all on one itune account? or is this possible?

If you change the primary email, you must use that one to login in with, as the primary email IS your AppleID.
If you go to https://appleid.apple.com you can login and change your information for your AppleID account, but you will see that the AppleID = primary email address. So, no, there is no way to change that, and still have your husband log in with the old AppleID/email.
Your husband can still use your AppleID after you change the email addres, just using that new email and password (ie. you can both still use the same AppleID, but it now will defacto be your new email address).
Or, if it is just a means to avoid the collisions of iMessage texts, just have your husband create his own AppleID just for use with iMessage. You can still both use your AppleID for the iTunes and App stores, but in the iMessage settings, he can use his own AppleID instead of yours.
In short - you can each have multiple AppleIDs, and you do not have to use the same AppleID for both purchases, syncing and so forth AND iMessage - iMessage settings can use a different AppleID from the other things.

HT201303 I tried to change my email address on the apple ID but now when I try to buy an app or film it still comes up with my old email address and won't accept my password to buy anything. My old email address is no longer in use and can not be access

I tried to change my email address ID , but now when I try to buy an app or music it still shows my old email address and won't accept my password which I did not change. What can I do as I can't download anything ?

What id shows in Settings > iTunes & App Store ? If it's the old one then tap on it and log out of it and then log in with the updated version

After changing email on my apple id it is impossible to access icloud as it automatically comes up with the old email, without option to change. and it does not let me log in via the old.

Look above.

I changed my email address (apple id) and password on my pc, but now my ipad mini icloud is asking me for my icloud password with the old email address and not accepting the old one or the new one..how do i change it / sync it?

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 iDevice, 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, and your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, 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 iDevice 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.

If you see that pop up you enabled icloud. Whether you want or do not want now to use it irrelevant until you actually disable activation lock.
In order to do that you have to change your apple id back to do that just long enough to sign in and back out. System will ask you to verify, don't.
Just sign in on the prompt you getting and then logout. Once done, change apple id to what you have now and verify. Then decide if you want to
use icloud (who does not want to be able to track their phone if lost or stolen).

I have an apple ID which I use to sign into icloud for my iPad and iPhone.But when I use the same ID for setting up iCloud on my Macbook it says INCORRECT ID or password, try again. I tried changing my passwords but it does not work for the macbook.

You will have to provide the correct password to delete the existing account, if you have tried but are not getting the password reset email, contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Lost or forgotten Apple ID password.

I have changed my Apple ID name and I want to change it on iCloud, however I am not able to delete the previous account because I need to turn off the Find my iPhone - and for that I need to log in with the old name and that is not working. Help anyone?

I changed my primary email and icloud is still set for my old email. I tried deleting my icloud but it aks me for the old password associated with the old email that I don't have anymore. Any other sugestions on how to get icloud to change emails on my i

I changed my primary email and icloud is still set for my old email. I tried deleting my icloud but it aks me for the old password associated with the old email that I don't have anymore. Any other sugestions on how to get icloud to change emails on my ios?

I figured it out! I changed my email & password at the icloud site, then when I deleted the icloud account on my iphone - it still showed my old email but when i typed in my current password it went through. I was then able to sign back in with my current email and password. That was too easy for the amount of time I have put into this! Glad its finally fixed.

I changed recently because apple ID not remember the password. More joined the icloud not changed, still with the old ID and now I can not delete the account because the icloud iphone app search I do?

What?
Try posting in your native language, the above makes no sense.

I have a new email address which I have had verified, but when I try to update an app it asks for my password with the old email address and always comes back telling me it is an incorrect password.

Hi Vivian Zollman,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I'm not sure if you are referring to your Apple ID or just your email account in the Mail app. So, I've included all of the articles that may be relevant for you.

If you already have an email account set up and you want to modify its settings, tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, tap the name of your account, and then your email address. Then tap any information you want to adjust.
