Hi Chris, If you want to see your iPhone as a drive on your PC and copy pictures this way you have to turn off iCloud Photo Library in Settings > iCloud.

Thanks folks, Your suggestion and advice was very helpful. I changed my apple ID email address and things seem to be normal. I have another question though, In iOS nine and before, I used to be able to access parts of my iPhone as an external drive when I connect it to PC for instance, I used to have access to the photos and videos. Now in iOS ten, I cannot see my iPhone listed as one of the drives when I connect my phone to the computer. Therefore, I no longer have direct simple access to the photos and videos as I did in the past. Is there a setting to make my phone become visible again when connected to my computer?

Hi Chris, As others have pointed out it is no problem to change your Apple Id. Essentially your Apple Id is whatever email address you used when you set it up. The only time it would be a problem is if you absolutely cannot get back into your old account. If you can log in then do what Pablo suggested, log in with your old email address and password, then go to where it says "Change my Apple Id" and register your new email address. I think you will get a confirmation email you have to acknowledge, but it's pretty self-explanatory once you get started.

Hello folks, I want to change my apple id> However, my understanding is that the apple Id is connected to the email address. I no longer want to keep the same email address, which means I will have to change my apple Id. The problem is that I am afraid if I log on to my iPhone and iPad using a new apple id would make me lose my purchased apps and books. I have already invested several hundred dollars on these things and I do not wish to lose them, or lose access to updates. Is there a way of changing apple id without causing such a mess?
