When setting up Apple ID I input the incorrect email address

Instead of typing hotmail i typed hotmil

Hello Bama moreland,
If you remember your password, you can log into https://appleid.apple.com/ to update your Apple ID:
To change your Apple ID, follow these steps:
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
Enter the email address you want to use, then click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your renamed Apple ID.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID.
After you see a message indicating that verification is complete, remember to update all of the features and services that you use with your Apple ID.

  • My icloud and Apple ID aren't the same email address. My phone wont let me change my icloud email. I don't know the password to my icloud account, and every time I try to email myself the password, it doesn't go through.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your Apple ID and iCloud email address don't need to be the same, you can't change an iCloud email address.
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you.

  • After I updated to iOS 7, my iCloud account is showing the incorrect email address for my Apple ID but will not allow me to change it- it's gray and I can't click on it. How do I fix this?

    If you change your email, you do not need to "change" your AppleID. Just edit your email(s) on your Apple ID by logging in to your AppleID account. You should always use the same AppleID for  Apple Services (iCloud, iTunes etc) and multiple ID will cause problems and confusion in the future.

    can i create additional apple id's using the same email address for using multiple products with iCloud?

    Hi Anne,
    I'm pretty sure different eMail addies are needed for different Apple IDs.

  • Entered incorrect email address when setting up Apple ID, therefore cannot get verification email. Also 'redeemed' $50 iTunes card before mistake was realised.

    Entered incorrect email address when setting up Apple ID, also 'redeemed' $50 iTunes card before mistake was realised. Naturally, the email address cannot be validated, so cannot proceed further. Please help.

    You can't merge IDs, but if you want to change the ID:
    For iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the new ID.
    For FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
    For Purchasing, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Store.
    For iCloud, start by saving your photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream album, tap Select, tap all the photos you want to save, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with your new ID and choose Merge to upload your data.

  • I changed email address, now my phone keeps asking me for my Apple ID password with the old email address as the username, I am still able to access everything I need to but it keeps popping up

    I changed my email address, now I constantly get a pop-up asking me for my Apple ID Password, showing my old email address.  I am able to access everything but it is annoying.

    Try:
    Settings>Store...tap the ID shown...sign out...now sign back in with your new ID.

  • Ok, I have changed the names of my iPads to each be different- but no matter what I do, the Apple ID comes up the old email address on the old iPad and will not let me update Apps, purchase , etc,

    I have used your info to give my two iPads different names. My problem is that my old iPad still has the old email in the Apple ID pop up so it will not let me sign in. I checked my info in the manage my account page and there is my email as primary, which allows me to sign in for apps, etc on the newiPad air, but when I try to update or buy an App on the old iPad, the old email is in the pop up and will not let me sign in.
    How do I change the email in the old iPad to match the new iPad????
    The Old email is on my manage my account page as a verified ALTERNATE email.

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Have you created a new account or updated your existing account ? All content that you download from the store is tied to the account that downloaded it, so if you have created a new account then all of your existing downloads will remain tied to your old account.
    If you've updated your existing account then try tapping on the id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and log out of it and then log back in with the updated id so as to 'refresh' the account on it.

  • I have recently changed my email /apple ID when I tried to buy new Lion download the old email address comes up?

    I have recently changed my email address and cosequent apple ID when I went to buy Lion download the old email address comes up?

    By default, the email address that you last used will be automatically displayed in the Apple ID box, leaving you just the password to enter. Just change the email address and enter your password an you should be fine. Note that you may see that old email address pop up a few times more - here, in the iTunes store, etc. - but if you've changed both all of your purchases, etc., should be linked to your 'new' Apple ID.

  • I accidentally in put the wrong email address when attempting to register with iCloud. As such, I can't verify the account with that email address because it does not exist. What should I do?

  • Two Apple ID with the same email address.

    Hello,
    I have 2 Apple ID's using the same email address.
    When I sign in with my Apple ID in the Apple Support Communities web he request me to "Choose your Apple Support Communities username.", So I write a user name and click continue - and this error message is shown: "account utilizing this email address already exists. Only one account per email address is allowed on Apple Support Communities."
    I know which Apple ID user using this email address but I can't change to different email address (this option in "Edit Profile" is impossible).
    What I can do?!

    This advice is not proper for the issue at hand.
    Your advise lets you reset the Apple ID not verify your current ID.
    In either case the recommended link does not work at this time - nor gives any response as to why you do not recieve the email they promise!!

  • New Apple ID with a new iCloud email address as the ID

    Can you get an iCloud email address BEFORE you get an Apple ID? I'd really like to not use my existing Yahoo email as my Apple ID login.
    Seems I have to use my old Yahoo email address to get an Apple ID because it's already existing.
    If I have to use an existing email address, can I subsequently change my issued Apple ID login to the iCloud email address I would have created after I've got into my new account?
    Thanks anyone.

    The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
    Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
    also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
    and the iTunes Match services.
    (I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
    If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
    iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
    and
    iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
    In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

  • How do I change the icloud email address on my iphone 4s

    How can I change the icloud account/ email address on my iphone 4s

    Hi shelby,
    You need to do the following:
    1.     Sign into Manage your Apple ID with your current ID and password, and EDIT the ID back to the old email address. This is temporary. Do NOT verify it, do NOT change the password: Apple - My Apple ID
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and click on Delete Account.Type in your current password when asked, then follow the prompts to delete the iCloud account from your device
    3.     Go back to Manage your Apple ID and sign in with the old ID and the current password. EDIT the Apple ID back to the new email address. You may have to verify it again.
    4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign on with the new ID
    Cheers,
