How do you change Apple ID email address? If you’ve recently changed your email address and want to update it on your Apple ID, you’re in the right place. Updating your email address is an essential step to ensure that you receive important notifications and messages from Apple. In this article, we’ll guide you through the process of changing your Apple ID email address step by step.
Before you begin, it’s important to note that you can only change your Apple ID email address to an email address that you own. Additionally, you can have only one primary email address associated with your Apple ID. Now, let’s dive into the process.
Step 1: Sign in to your Apple ID account
The first step is to sign in to your Apple ID account. You can do this by visiting the Apple ID website (appleid.apple.com) or by opening the Apple ID app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
Step 2: Go to the Apple ID settings
Once you’re signed in, look for the “Apple ID” section and click on it. This will take you to the settings page where you can manage your Apple ID information.
Step 3: Update your email address
On the Apple ID settings page, scroll down to the “Primary Email” section. Here, you’ll see your current email address. Click on “Edit” or “Change Email” to update it.
Enter the new email address you want to use as your primary email address. Make sure that you own this email address and that you can access it. Once you’ve entered the new email address, click “Save” to proceed.
Step 4: Verify your new email address
After you’ve saved the new email address, Apple will send a verification email to the new address. Open the email and click the verification link provided by Apple. This will confirm that you own the new email address and complete the process.
Step 5: Update your Apple devices
Now that you’ve updated your email address on the Apple ID website, you’ll need to update it on your Apple devices as well. Open the Settings app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, and go to your Apple ID profile. Tap on “Name, Phone Number, Email,” and then “Edit.” Update your email address and tap “Done” to save the changes.
By following these steps, you’ll successfully change your Apple ID email address. Remember to keep your email address up to date to ensure that you receive important notifications and messages from Apple.
