Anyway, it\u2019s highly recommended that you change your apple id address when the old one is no longer accessible because Apple needs to contact you through email to keep you updated on the status of your account. You\u2019re making a wise choice but can you change your Email ID? This article will tell you how to change Apple ID email address. Now let\u2019s get down to the business. <\/p>\n<div class=\"anchor-list-dark\">\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"#part1\"><b>What to do before changing your Apple ID Email Address? <\/b><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#part2\"><b>How to change Apple ID email address?<\/b><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-part pl20 mt10\" id=\"part1\"><b>What to do before changing your Apple ID Email Address? <\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>1. Sign your Apple ID out of all of your devices before changing your email address. <\/b><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worthwhile that you should log out of the Apple ID on all devices before you make the change,  otherwise you might end up in a limbo (can\u2019t enter the password on the device because the email is incorrect, can\u2019t sign out because the email is incorrect). So sign out first, then change the email. By doing this, you won't be caught off guard. You will also have to manually sign out of iTunes and the App Store.<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Make Sure You Have Access To The Email Account Linked To Your Apple ID<\/b><\/p>\n<p>You need access to both of your old email address and the email address you want to change your Apple ID to.  The former one is for you to verify the change. The latter one is for you to confirm the change. If you don\u2019t have access to that email account, you won\u2019t be able to verify the address with Apple and you won\u2019t be able to use that Apple ID.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-part pl20 mt10\" id=\"part2\"><b>How to change Apple ID email address?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>1.
