How do I change my Apple ID on my iPhone?

Got a new iPhone but it would not let me log in with my existing Apple ID and made me create a new ID. How do I switch to my existing ID?

If you don't have a lot of data on the phone, I suggest you use the article below to completely remove the new ID.


Selling/Giving Away Device.   


If necessary, sign out of the new ID and in with the old ID using the article below as a guide.
