i've changed my apple id.

Hi everyone

I have apple id zzz@gmail.com and i have synced it with an icloud.

After that I have changed it so i made my id assosiated with yyy@yahoo.com

so i have replaced the old mail on new. so there is no more such id as zzz@gmail.com

then i registered i mean i signed up one more time i mean i have created one more apple id with the mail that i've used to use before which is zzz@gmail.com and i never logged in or used icloud with that mail

question: so my synced data is associaated with yyy@yahoo.com?

or still if i log into icloud with zzz@gmil.com i can see my old files? or now it is like new clear id and nothing on icloud?

Sync means with any device that is logged into that account, it also includes iCloud.com.

You can use either address to log in to iCloud but you can only do so with the correct password.

so if i manually delete something from the www.icloud.com and my iphone and lets say no other devices have synced what i've deleted before, so that means it will no longer exist and sync with another device?

if i delete specific icloud account from the phone so it wont sync with other devices or icloud too, right?

If you delete something from any device or iCloud.com logged into the same account, it will be deleted from all devices and iCloud.com and it will no longer exist.

If you delete an account from any device, all you do is remove it from that device, the account will still exist along with all data in it.

oh i get it now, @icloud.com has the same apple id password that i have changed it is not separate from the account, if i have assosiated to the apple account itself a different email and have changed apple id password it doent matter if he has @icloud.com mail linked to this account because the password won't work, right?

so what you said before, right? icloud account is not linked to mail, it is lined to apple id and if have changed the password so @icloud.com mail changed the password too, right? its acoount setting, right?

yes but if i delete the data from the icloud manually? if my iphone have synced with icloud.com and there is no such data on other devices because they have not synced yet? that means that it will not appear on other devices when they start to sync?

and if after that i delete my account from the phone, my phone will stop sync?

Yes it's forever linked to the iCloud address, but not non iCloud addresses.
