Old Apple iD

I use an iPhone 3 and when I try to download apps, it brings up an old email address which we no longer use...I cannot remember the password and I can't ask for an email to change the password because the email is defunkt. What can I do about this? Can I change the iD that automatically comes up on the phone in the app store? Thanks!

iPhone 3G

Hello Rose,


Thank you for the question. Use these steps to change the signed in Apple ID:

Changing your Apple ID account

Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.

User uploaded file

Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID.
