See How to use account recovery when you can’t reset your Apple ID password - Apple Support, and then Change your Apple ID - Apple Support.

Itunes password I'm using an obsolete email address to access ITunes and want to delete this and use my current email address. I have changed my Apple ID to the current email address, but access to Itunes is only from the old email address and I cannot remember the password for this. Having purchased a new IPhone 14 Pro i have been unable to transfer my music to the new iphone.

Songs purchased with an email that no longer exists I need to know how I get around the following problem. Some years ago I purchased some songs and albums in iTunes when I had a certain ic24 email address. That email has not existed for some years. Today when setting up my new iPhone, it told me the items bought under that old email could not be authorised unless I entered the password for that account! Now there is no way that I can remember the password after all this time, but even if I did, the account and even the ISP ic24 has not existed for a long time anyway, so I had to skip over it when setting up my new iPhone. However, how do I get access to those old purchases now? And if I I was to try the 'forgot password' link, it would attempt to send a reset password link to an email that doesn't exist, so that can't work either. So how do I get authorisation for music I purchased long ago when I had a different email address? Thank you.

Accessing iTunes purchased music on a previous Apple ID I had an Apple ID which I used to purchase about 5000 tracks, all uploaded to an iPod, purchased in 2006. The iPod still works fine. However, my Apple Id was hacked 3 years ago, and I was unable to login to my iPad 2015 using that ID. I even had some money in credit on that account. My ICloud email was still useable, and it is what I used to upload my photos etc. I tried at length with Genius staff to overcome this My question is: how can I access my songs when my previous Apple ID is not now valid. Is there a way I can use the Ipod to upload the items to the new ITunes? Please advise. Many thanks
