  • August 8, 2018

Your iCloud account is used to keep your data stored in Apple’s cloud storage service. It’s also connected to your Apple ID, which is used to make online purchases using your iPhone and iPad. It’s easy to change your contact info, shipping address, and password for your Apple ID. Here’s how.

  • How to change your Apple ID from a third-party email address to an Apple domain address
  • How to change your iCloud account and Apple ID contact info on iPhone and iPad
  • How to change your iCloud account and Apple ID password and security questions on iPhone and iPad
  • How to change the security questions for your Apple ID

How to change your Apple ID from a third-party email address to an Apple domain address

If the email account you use on a daily basis is a @iCloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com address, but your Apple ID is tied to a Google, Yahoo, or other email accounts that you never use anymore, you can fix this.

Note: Once you switch to an Apple domain Apple ID, you can’t switch back. So make sure your decision is final.

Before you make the switch sign out of all your services that use your Apple ID. Here’s a list of the services you should sign out of on all of your iOS devices:

  • Apple.com
  • Apple Store app and the Apple online store
  • FaceTime
  • Find My iPhone
  • iCloud
  • iTunes
  • iBooks Store
  • App Store
  • Messages

Remember to sign out on all of your devices, including your iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV.

Once you’re signed out, you can change the email address associated with your Apple ID

  1. Launch the Settings app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap your Apple ID banner.
  3. Tap Name, Phone Numbers, Email.Open the Settings app, then tap your Apple ID banner, then tap Name, Phone Numbers, Email
  4. Tap Edit next to Reachable at.
  5. Tap the Delete button next to your current Apple ID.Tap Edit, then delete your Apple ID
  6. Tap Continue
  7. Enter the new email address you want to associate with your Apple ID.
  8. Tap Next.
  9. Tap Confirm to confirm that you want to make the change.

Once changed, you’ll need to sign back into all of the services that use your Apple ID.

You can change your name, email address, phone number, or even your Apple ID picture right from your iPhone or iPad.

You can also remove a secondary email address or phone number that you can be reachable at through iMessages, FaceTime and Game Center. Tap Edit next to “Reachable At,” then remove an email address or phone number you don’t want to be used with your iCloud account or Apple ID.

How to change your Apple ID password on iPhone and iPad

It’s always a good idea to change your password on a regular basis. You don’t have to go to appleid.apple.com to change it. You can change your password right on your iPhone or iPad.

When you change your password, you’ll have to update this across all your devices that you are signed into your Apple ID with, so be sure to write it down for safe keeping.

How to change the security questions for your Apple ID

If you use two-step verification to add extra protection to keep your Apple ID secure, you’ll be asked to answer three questions that specifically relate to your personal life. If for any reason, you think your security questions aren’t safe enough, you can change them at appleid.apple.com.

Note: If you have two-factor authentication (not two-step verification) set up, you won’t see the option to create or change security questions.

  1. Navigate to appleid.apple.com from a web browser.
  2. Enter your Apple ID and password.
  3. Click the arrow next to the password field.
  4. Click on Change Questions under Security Questions in the Security section.Log in with your Apple ID and password, then tap Change Questions
