Associated apple Ids and 90 day periods between switches

When you use iTunes Match or automatic download or redownload an account's past purchases then you may tie that computer or device to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - so you won't be able to do any of those three things on a different account until the 90 days have completed (it shouldn't affect the ability to buy/download new items). I believe that it's an attempt to stop people signing into their account on somebody else's computer/device and downloading their own purchases onto it.

If you can't wait until the 90 days have completed then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can remove the association : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page. But doing either of these three things are likely to start a new association.

Hi

I had to change my user to a new one without switching off "find my iphone" now every time i try to log out of icloud a window pops out with the previous user ID asking me to turn off find my iphone. Will this window pop out with the new user ID after 90 days and allow me to sign out of find my iphone ?? Please help

The 90 day limit is to do with the stores (redowloading past purchases, automatic downloads, iTunes Match), it shouldn't have impact on the account that you are using in Settings > iCloud.

When you have Find My iPhone enabled in Settings > iCloud, to then log out of that account (or just turn off Find My iPhone) you have to type in that account's password. Have you done that ?

Yes but it's asking me for the password of the old ID that i changed to this new ID. I tried to input the old password & new password but nothing worked

And thank you for your reply

Do you mean that you updated your existing account to have a new primary email address on it, or that you have created an entirely new account ?

If the former then try the suggestions on this page to log out of the old version of the account so that you can log back in with the updated version of the account (or use a different account : If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support

Yes it is the former ID & i have tried all these steps except for the last part. Does it mean i have to repewt the process again If it doesn't work? & doee it take time for the new password to take effect?

Yes, and updating the password should take effect immediately.
