Change email on iTunes account

I moved and have a different email account. Apple account email ID was changed years ago .

iTunes still lists old email as email for ID.

How do I get iTunes to change?

iPod Classic

Have you tried signing out of the old ID address and back in with the new ID address?


If the old ID address was a different Apple ID, check the App Store and iTunes Store to see if there are any updates for apps/purchases. A request for another Apple ID password is often caused by updates to apps/purchases that were made when using the other ID. Those purchases are tied to the other ID and can't be transferred. One option is to delete the apps/purchases made by the other ID and download them using the new ID if desired. If necessary, check your purchases history to see which apps/purchases weren’t made by the current ID.
