You need to reset both your ICloud Email account and Store Account.

IPHONE

ITunes Store

Goto Settings>Itunes & App Stores>Click your Itunes Login Name>Sign Out.

Sign in with new Apple ID.

ICloud Exchange

Goto Settings>ICloud>Delete Account.

Recreate the ICloud Account with your New ID.

I think the problem everyone assumes the login ID to get into the phone is the same as the Email login, and that is just not true.

When I changed the ICloud Exchange account, I was then prompted with my new Email Apple ID account.

Hope this helps.

This WORKED, people please try this method it does work!

This is/was very helpful. The simple step of signing out and then when we log back in, we can change the email address to our new email.

This worked for me...though how do you avoid re-purchasing all your apps?

Simply don't repurchase them.

It does not say sign out for me. It says sign in though. What should I do?

Because you are signed out.

Perhaps you could sign in...

Haha. Yeah. I tried that. Here is the problem. I just created a new email and I accidentally typed in something wrong so my apple ID was messed up. I'm awful with technology! Lol However, I changed the ID and password. The email that was wrong is in fact a real one owned by someone else. Do you think any private info was possibly leaked? Or is the problem cleared?

my problem is even if I sign out on my phone and use the correct ID, the apps I downloaded using my previous ID is giving me headaches while updating. It keeps asking for my old ID which I changed and no matter what PW i use it says in correct. PS I can download new apps with my current/correct ID..please help

I changed my apple ID in my iphone 4s ( setting-- app

store-- sign out -- creat new -- and sign in...)but when i want to download more apps(in iphone), it comes up with my old apple ID, and i cant figure out how to change it.

please help me..Thanks.

I think I have the same problem!

I have my Apple ID which is "jmnzangel@xxxx" signed in on everything here on my ipad and then when I tried to download something in the App Store a different Apple ID is signed on. I have only one Apple ID that's why I was surprised to see someone else's signed on. Now I can't download anything without using my computer.

Did you guys get to fix yours?
