Re: Changing my password on IPhone
Hi Catherine, I think you find the Apple ID under Settings Store. When I go there, my Apple ID shows up at the bottom of the screen. If I double tap it, I have the options to View Apple ID, Sign Out, or Cancel. Double tapping View Apple ID prompts me for my login password, and lets me edit my account settings, such as payment information. Before you make any permanent changes, where did you go to change your Apple ID, and what is the reason you are changing it? That my help to make more constructive suggestions about how to proceed.

RE: Changing my password on IPhone
I need to change it because the ISP I used as my ID is no longer valid, so in order to validate a real account, I changed it. I'll try what you suggest and see what happens. -Original Message- From: mac-access-boun...@mac-access.net [mailto:mac-access-boun...@mac-access.net] On Behalf Of Esther Sent: Sunday, February 12, 2012 3:41 PM To: Mac OSX iOS Accessibility Subject: Re: Changing my password on IPhone Hi Catherine, I think you find the Apple ID under Settings Store.

Re: Changing my password on IPhone
Hi Catherine, Your Apple ID is not the same as your email address. That's why I asked. You can continue to use it, I think, even if that no longer works as an email address. Changing it gets pretty messy.

Re: Changing my password on IPhone
Hi Catherine, Esther and others. Though it can be messy, some times it works out better in the long run. It was out of mom's control last Summer, when her ISP literally went away over night. She ordered her 4S by phone, and the sales rep created a new Apple ID because eMail communication was the only way that she could agree to the carrier's contract terms. So I was tasked with merging the two ids while retaining access to the apps purchased under the old ID. What I learned is that Sarah's suggestion should (but does not always) work. If the change can not be completed via signing out/in under the Store menu in iTunes, it may be necessary to deactivate the old id at the itunes site. If you have Apple care, they can talk you through it over the phone; I don't recall the exact procedure, and I suspect that Apple is making this info difficult to find in Google. What I recall was signing in with mom's old Apple ID and then appending text such as a period (.) and a word such as delete, disable, or remove. So the prompt would be something like m...@myisp.com.delete and after entering the password and confirming, its gone. The whole process does not take much time and will retain your DRM info from the old ID, but Iit may be best to call Apple and make sure you do it right. The other nice thing is that you'll once again get receipts when making purchases, and receive confirmation of genius bar appointments, etc. Best regards.
