I just changed my Apple ID username and password on my mac pro which changed my iCloud account settings. But when I try and change the iCloud settings on my iPhone to match the mac pro it won't let me because I need to enter the old account's password which virtually doesn't exist anymore.Â
My AppleID in the settings>iCloud tab of my iphone4 is incorrect. A box pops up to tell me that it is incorrect, and I can either edit or ignore. When I select 'edit' the account information pops up: AppleID, password, and description.
the problem is this: it will allow me to change the password and the description, but the appleID is in grey text and therefore unavailable for editing. UGH.
my appleID in the store is correct. my appleID settings are verified as correct on the myappleid part of the apple site.
Why won't it allow me to change it? I'd really like to get the cloud up & working!
My family of four currently shares one Appleid which is becoming a problem as we dont want to share contacts etc across our iphones. How do I switch the common apple id (that each of our phones is now using) so that each phone now has its own unique id?
When installing iOS 5 I somehow linked my iCloud to my moms account both on my iPhone and iPad. If I select the delete account button at the bottom of the iCloud settings, will it delete the account off of my moms phone too? She would rather not delete her iCloud account.
I just now set up an iCloud account, and when I went to my messages, I saw that there were no contacts, just all numners. So I went to my contacts, and it turns out that there are none.
I've had to change my email address, so I made a new account in itunes, along with the apple id in the store settings on my iphone. The problem is that when I go to update apps it will still ask me the password for my old email address, I've looked in all my settings, searched the net and I wouldn't have a clue in how to change it.
I bought a i phone 4 from ebay how do i change the e-mail for the face time account for my phone. i already set up my icloud account and i tunes account
I purchase a iPhone from somebody and the phone has been reset but the iCloud shows that he phone has reach it max numbers of free account to sign. So how I remove a old iCloud account from this phone.
My husband and i share an itunes acct. We like this so our phones can share the same purchased content. But when we synced with icloud all of our contacts merged. This is a big problem. How can we keep separate contacts?
I want to change it to my husbands so all of our information syncs on to my iphone and our ipad, but will this completely delete my iCloud account? and by doing this how will my phone change (such as contacts, photos etc.) ?
I Recently noticed that the user name associated with iCloud on my iPhone 5s is in another name. (Probably the previous owner) I could have sworn I changed this when first bought it but obviously not. Anyway, I want to change it to my user name now and seem to be having difficulty doing so. It won't let me delete account to add a new one in my name unless the previous password associated with the old owner is put in, and I don't have that now. It also won't let me switch off find my iphone unless old password is typed in, but it did let me turn it on without old password........strange.Â
ANyway, I have tried contacting the person I bought it off but no answer. The phone itself works perfectly, it's just I can't log into iCloud or delete old users iCloud without the password.Â
We just upgraded three phones to iPhones 5c's. My husband did not have an iPhone previously so I logged in to his new phone with my iCloud account and now I wand to set him up with his own so how do I change it?
Ive got an iPhone 4 that I don't use any more and the original apple ID that I had was problematic and it was changed when I received my new phone. Now the problem I have is that in order to sell my old phone I need to delete the iCloud account but can't remember the old password and I can retrieve any information because the ID doesn't exist any more!Â
I changed my email address and my Apple ID, however, my iPhone still has my old Apple ID on the iCloud settings and when I try to delete it, it asks for a password for this old account that doesn't exist. How can I delete the iCloud account without it asking for the old password?
My itunes identity, and apple store identity, on the comuter lists my new email adress. However, even after syncing, the iphone lists my username as my old email address. How do I get the iphone to use my new email for itunes and apple identity?
My apple id used to be connected with visa debit card, now the card isn't active anymore since I stopped funding it. I cannot download free apps using my apple id because it keeps on telling me that I should update payment method. I don't use any credit card anymore. There is no "NONE" option in the payment methods. What do I do now? i only want to get free apps and retain my current apple id bec i need it for updates.
So my iphone was recently stolen from me earlier today. I do not have an Icloud account, so "Find My IPhone" won't work for me. I have a mobile me account, and everytime I use the Find My Iphone funtion, it says location services are disabled.. any clue how to fix that or get around that?? Also, I tried setting a lock, it says remote lock pending, and says it will send me an email to confirm it, but it's hasn't...
I have two i phones one for my kids and one for me and we have one itunes/icloud account when we have i cloud on we lose our specific contact lists. can we not share i cloud?
Disappointed, Apple has no 24 hours service hotline。My mobile iPhone has been lost for 2 hours, but I lost my icloud accout password。So I can't use "find my iPhone" sevice, I'am in china now , People have to sleep
I crushed my iPhone and went to download all my info to the new iPhone I could not acess the cloud because it has a old hotmail account and password assigned to it. I still use the hotmail account but the password has been changed and I cannot remember what it.was that long ago. Last November I changed my Apple ID email from hotmail to Gmail..however never changed the iCloud info..it will not let me change it now or acess the cloud ... How is this done ?
A friend forgot his phone in the bus on his departure. He called ma immediately from the airport informing me about the same, so I called the bus company...and certainly "there was no phone". I went today to the police to report it, so they could track it down, however I was told by the police guy, that as far as it was basically lost, despite that it was lost on the bus and from there it just "vanished", they will not search for the same. He was telling me that I should claim it back from insurance if I did one...if it would be only the phone is one thing, but there were the pictures of the trip and quite some other personal datas, so it is more becuase of that.
The phone was purchased just before the visit, and the friend did not register it through "Find my phone". I was told today that I can enter manually the IMEI and search for location of the phone, as I am pretty sure that the phone is still in the country.
