Why does iCloud still show an old email address?

When I log in to my apple ID and iCloud, the screen shows an old email address. I have changed the email address long ago under "mange Apple ID". Suggestions welcome.

This has happened to me as well. Monitering.

Icloud still shows my old email address when I try to enter, asking me for a password I no longer have. I need to change my email address and password in ICLOUD but I can't find a way to do it. Any ideas? Thanks.

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 > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)

My iCloud account shows an old email address i no longer use even though I've updated my apple id with my new email information. How do I get the old email account off my iCloud

my iCloud account shows an old email address i no longer use even though I've updated my apple id with my new email information. It keeps asking me my old password to the old email address which is NOT a valid email any longer. I'm unable to manage my iCloud until this is resolved. HELP

If your Apple ID is the one that you use for making all of your purchases, it should, automatically appear in FaceTime already. How a no longer valid email address got there to begin with is a mystery to me, if in fact you do have, and have been using another Apple ID.
Go to Settings>FaceTime>Apple ID. Tap the old email address and sign out, sign in with your Apple ID. It should be verified and allow you to select it as the address that you can be reached by for FaceTime.
If that does not work, time FaceTime off, restart your iPad and then start all over again.

HT5621 I changed my AppleID, but iCloud still has the old email address on my phone. How do I change that?

I changed my AppleID, but iCloud still has the old email address on my phone. How do I change that? It keeps asking me to input my password, but obviously that won't work because the ID is wrong not the password.

Then change your Apple ID back to the old ID, then delete the account. Once done, change your ID to your new one.

HT4009 I have recently changed my email address, now am having problems with signing into apps...as it still shows the old email address. I need help ...anyone??

After recently changing my email address on my iphone 4, am now having problems signing into the apps using my apple id....I have the apps still showing the old email address...and the password has not changed....can anyone tell me how to fix this? Thank you in advance...

You've updated your iTunes account to have your new email address on it - you might need to log out of your account by tapping on it at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in with the updated version of your account so as to 'refresh' the account on it.

HT1296 My email address has changed. I have successfully amended it on my computer in Apple iTunes but my iphone 4s and my iPad still show the old email address when requesting the password and will not let me update Apps. Please can anyone advise me what

My email provider has changed and I have a new one.
I amended this on my computer under my Apple iTunes account without any difficulty and it was authenticated. However, I still have the original email appearing on my iphone 4s and ipad2 and I cannot update that information. Neither can I use my usual password to update my Apps. Please can anyone assist me with simple instructions on how to change these important passwords? Thankyou in anticipation for reading and hopefully considering a solution.

Thank you, this has resolved both the iphone and ipad problem immediately. I am concerned that I may have a problem with apps that I bought under my old AppleID as they will not be recognised. Any suggestions for this please?

HT5312 I changed my email address and apple is ok wih it but iCloud still has my old email address and is not recognising either my original password or my new password. How can I get my iCloud account email address corrected and also get my new password

Hi
I changed email addresses but iCloud sill has my previous address registered. It also is not recognising either my original password or my new password. How can I get my new email address into the iCloud system, and also lodge a new password with them?
I'm using an ipad and all else is ok but not icloud.

Welcome to the Apple community Ross.
If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
