Apr 17, 2015 12:24 PM in response to Gurlee1by CroMagnum,Is there anything that suggests to you that you should be able to?
Not sure if you can do so NOW, but in the past you could not change the username/apple id itself, if that’s what you mean.
Perform a search for past posts about it.

Apr 17, 2015 12:50 PM in response to Gurlee1by lllaass,Without knowing what haooens wehn yu try:
I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
How do I change my Apple ID Name or personal information?
You can change your Apple ID Name at My Apple ID. Click on Manage your Apple ID and sign in with your Apple ID name and password. Click Edit and enter the new information, then click Save Changes. Changes take effect immediately. You can also use My Apple ID to change your personal information, such as your mailing address or email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.

May 7, 2015 4:05 PM in response to lllaassby CroMagnum,Just to satisfy my curiosity & recollection:
Being able to change the user id is a fairly recent thing, isn’t it?
As I recall,
you couldn’t change the user name / apple id when they first came into existence, could you?
