Update iCloud account and apple id on iOS devices

Hello,
How to update apple id and iCloud account on my IOS devices after having changed them on my Mac ?
Thank you in advance

If you have 'Find My (device)' set up you have to log out of that with the old password - this may or may not work. If you don't have it set up you should be able to log out (on an iOS device: Settings>iCloud and click 'Delete Account' - this will not delete the account from the server).
If you are unable to do this you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com ; click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password' (this is probably the nearest subject available).

HT204053 . Is there a way to change/update icloud account and apple id

I recently changed email addresses, so I changed this in my apple account. This changed my apple id. When I did that, I can no longer get icloud to work. On my devices I am unable to change the account id for icloud, and I can no longer log in with my old password. how can I update the user name on my icloud account to match the updates in my apple account?

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")
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.

You do a restore as new to wipe the iPhone then at the end of restore you will be asked to restore from backup. Choose your iPhone backup.
Note you cannot restore an IOS newer than the IOS on iPhone, you need to update iPhone first.

I need to erase all content and settings from old iPhone 4s. Will doing so affect new iPhone 6 which is using the same iCloud account and Apple ID?

No, it will not affect the iPhone 6 content if you wipe the old iPhone 4s.

My iCloud account and Apple ID are different.but now i cant remember my icloud password .help me plzzzzz

If you don't know your iCloud ID, you can try to find it as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625. (An iCloud ID is also an Apple ID.)
If you don’t know your password you can reset the password as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.

My wife and I had one iCloud account and now with our multiple devices, we want to separate our clouds, how do I do that?

As quicksilver8 says, that's difficult.
See Transferring files from one User Account to another for some suggestions.

My daughter and i use the same icloud account and apple account but now on my iphone and her ipod we have each others contacts. i want to delete her contacts on my iphone without losing my contacts on my phone or her contacts on her ipod. I

My daughter and i share the same Apple ID account and I cloud account but I just unwittingly merged them on my Iphone 5s. Now i have all her contacts and my own. I want to delete hers from my phone and stop from her receiving my emails and my contacts. Can i fix both problems without erasing my contacts on my phone and her contacts from her ipod?

Hi,
I got my phone a couple of years ago and when it came in the mail, I wasn't home so my brother decided to set up my iPhone for me because he was so desperate to check the phone out. My iCloud account has been his account and it's been set up under his e-mail since the day I got my phone. Once he bought an iPhone, he set it up under the same e-mail account and now we share it. It's so annoying because all of my pictures and stuff are stored in my iCloud, but that's under his e-mail and I really want a new iCloud account but I want to transfer all of my iCloud information and pictures to my e-mail without losing them. Randomly, my brother has been receiving some of my facetime calls and I even turned it off so that it is only set on my device. I didn't even know he received any of my facetime calls until the other day when my friend told me. Now, our contacts are shared and I don't want that either. At one point during the summer, he was receiving my text messages as well. I turned all of those off under settings so they wouldn't be shared on his device, but I need to find a way to carry my iCloud stuff and set it up in a my own completely separate account. Please, please help me. I really am getting so frustrated with it and neither of us want to delete our accounts because we don't want to lose our iCloud stuff.

Cannot facetime from ipad icloud account and apple id differ

Frustrated that my phone and ipad were linked, I changed the id associated with my iPad- now it's linked to an icloud address, but I can no longer facetime.
I've reset my pasword SEVERAL times to no avail.
I used to get kick backs/ double texts and both devices would ring for facetime. want them to be independent of each other.

1) There is support. You have to actually contact them and ask to speak to Account Security.
2) iCloud is as secure as your password. If you share your iCloud/iTunes account with others, or use the same password for iCloud as you do for other online services, then it is more likely to be guessed by hackers. I doubt the Italian Police are experts in internet security so don't believe what they say.
3) Bottom-right of every page on Apple.com is a Contact Us link. Use it.
4) iCloud storage and iTunes / App Store purchases cannot be transferred. Better to secure your existing AppleID and continue using that.

HT5621 Icloud account and apple id being shared by 2 phones , can I change this ?

Hi
My other half and I have set up icloud using the same apple id and this is causing problems .
Any ideas how to solve this , if I delete i cloud account on my phone will this then delete from 2nd phone aswell .
He has already lost contacts because I deleted them on my phone .
Thanks in advance

If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe. The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however. If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance.

I changed my Apple ID that using an invalid email address to a new one and I am trying to update iCloud account on iPhone5 with iOS 7.1.2, and I am not able to delete iCloud account without the old password.

I changed my Apple ID that using an invalid email address and I am trying to update iCloud account with my new Apple ID on iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1.2. I am not able to delete iCloud account without the old password. Is there a way to update the Apple ID of my iCloud account?

Many people are having probalems with this right now. The only solution I've seen that seems to consistently work is the one posted by Brackers28 here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23020591#23020591. This only works if you still have access to your old email account. If you don't, you'll have to have Apple help you reset the password for your old account so you can turn off Find My iPhone and sign into your account with your correct ID.

Okay My Aunt has given me her old updated iPhone 5c where she has lost her password to her icloud account and doesnt know her sercurity questions to reset it is there anyway to bypass this with the iOS 8.1.3

You cannot bypass this security measure. You need to recover your AppleID from appleID.apple.com
If you can't send the password recovery to a secondary email, contact Apple Support.

Got a new mac today, I created my iCloud account (and therfore my Apple ID?) I tried to set up my iTunes and download updates, and it says i need to review my account, then I had to edit my Apple ID details, but said my email address was invalid???

From the information that you have provided, it sounds like your Apple ID has been disabled. You can read this to see how you can troubleshoot that issue.
Apple ID is Disabled - Apple Club - Google Sites
You can try signing out of your ID on the iPad and sign in with his ID and see if that works.
Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Then sign in with your husband's newly created ID.

I have yet to update my iPhone 4 to the latest iOS software. How do I save photos to my iCloud photo stream that were taken before I activated my iCloud account and photo stream ?

I have yet to update my iPhone 4 to the latest iOS software. How do I save photos to my iCloud photo stream that were taken before I activated my iCloud account and photo stream ?

You have a couple of options:
Open the photos one at a time and take a screenshot. This will add a new low resolution copy of the photo to the camera roll, which will then upload to your photo stream;
Email the photos a few at a time to yourself, then save the attached photos to your camera roll. This will add a copy of the photo at full resolution to your camera roll and upload to photo stream;
Use an app like PhotoSync, which will allow you to wirelessly transfer copies of all your old photos to your computer all at once. Then delete these photos from your camera roll and use PhotoSync to transfer them back from your computer to your camera roll. These will be the original resolution and will upload to your photo stream. (You need an app like this because iTunes will not transfer photos back to your camera roll, where they must be in order to add to your photo stream.)

IPad is now severely messed up after connecting iPod to its iCloud account, and after switching to that same Apple ID for iMessage/FaceTime

So, it all started with iMessage. FaceTime had similar log in symptoms as well, but I don't really use FaceTime. The best way I can describe it is with this... Paragraph I sent to my friend, describing my dilemma.
iMessage and everything was PERFECT for about a day, then it stopped working suddenly on my iPad. Then it wouldn't work on both. Then I could sign in on my iPod but not my iPad. Then finally I could log in to both. But it deleted the old send and receive email I was using, so everyone I texted would see an email rather than my name. It WOULD NOT let me add the email again, it would refuse to send a verification email to allow it to work, and would finally just say "error". Now it suddenly stopped working on my iPad and it hasn't worked at all for almost 2 days now. Oh and I only receive notifications for VZ Messages on my iPod, not my iPad. All the settings are perfectly in order on my iPad as well, so I have no clue what to do.
Instagram notifications also have appeared to behave as the VZ Messages notifications have. Any ideas? These are all of my top-used apps, and all of their noticatioms are left broken on my iPad after I added my iPod to my iCloud account, and started using my own Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime.
DO NOT BOTHER GIVING ME THESE LINKS, AS THEY ARE NOT EVEN DESCRIBING THE SAME ISSUE I AM HAVING.

If you didn't receive your Apple ID verification or reset email
