Changing My Apple ID (EMail)

I’ve been using my Apple ID, which is a reference to an old email account that is no longer valid. I would like to update my Apple ID to my current email. When I change to my current email, will all of my subscriptions, apps, and data follow under the current email account?


Many thanks!

Mark A M.

You can change your Apple ID email address on your current Apple ID so you retain access to your data, subscriptions, and prior purchases. Note the restrictions in the article.


Apple ID Name Change.  * 


Make sure you turn off Find My Phone before signing out of the old ID. Once signed out and Find My Phone is off, then sign in with the new ID, then turn Find My Phone back on.
