Hi, lindafromrowlett.
I see that you'd like to change the Apple ID account that you're using for iCloud. I'm happy to help.
How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch -- Please be sure to have a fresh backup to keep your personal information safe. In order to back up your Health data, the backup needs to be encrypted. iCloud does this automatically, but iTunes doesn't. If you'd like to use iTunes to back up your iPhone, refer to this article: About encrypted backups in iTunes
What to do after you change your Apple ID or password -- If your Apple ID doesn't end in @icloud.com, @me.com or @mac.com, sign out of each Apple service listed in this article.
Change your Apple ID -- Since syncing information with iCloud is tied to the Apple ID you've been using, instead of creating a new one, edit the old one with the email address you'd rather use. Then, refer to the previous article and sign into Apple services again with your Apple ID as it is now.
Let me know how that goes.
Take care!
If this is a used device, you will need to contact the seller to have them log out of iCloud or go to iCloud.com/Find My Phone and erase the device, then remove it from their account. If you can’t do that, the device is useless.
If you bought the device, if necessary, take the device, the original purchase receipt, and a photo ID to the nearest Apple Store.
or contact Apple ID Support. They will need to see the receipt also.
Apple Support by e-mail or chat Select your device, Battery, Power and Charging, then Power adapter not working to get a chat option. If you need to talk to them, ask them if they will do a Skype or FaceTime with you.
