how do i change my apple email address to something different
You can do it a number of ways :
- log into the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes
- log into it via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com
- tap on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on an iOS device and log into the account
thanks for you help, does this just enable me to change the Apple ID from my icloud.com address to say hotmail.com?
The reason i ask is a actually want to set up another iCloud.com address as opposed to the one i already have in use, is that possible?
If your current primary address is an iCloud.com address then no, you won't be able to change it
From Change your Apple ID :
You can change the address of any Apple ID, except an Apple ID that ends with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com.
okay can i simply start from scratch and set up a new one then?
You can create a new account, but any content that you downloaded with your existing account will remain tied to that account - so only that account will be able to authorise its content on a new computer, potentially redownload it, and download updates to its apps.
