I changed my iCloud account email, and now am locked out from making changes to my iPhone and iPad
Hello,
I changed the primary email for my Apple ID/iCloud account. That was the easy part. Thinking I could then just delete and re-add my iCloud account to each, my iPhone and iPad accounts, I've run into a few problems.
First, when trying to delete my iCloud account, I'm prompted to turn off "find my iphone" property. I can only do this by providing the password to my now non-existent iCloud account. It keeps asking for the password to the email that I had changed. I can't restore it from a back-up as it puts me in the same place. I've even tried just wiping the device...but even then I'm prompted for the Apple ID password that is associated with the email that I changed in my iCloud account.
I'm stuck is some sort of circular logic **** and I can't find an exit point. Any ideas?
thanks!
