Recently, Apple told me reset my password. While I was at it, I changed my username (email) as well as a new password. Now my computer constantly asks for my Apple Password, using my old email address. Furthermore, I can't get into find my iPhone to wipe an old phone or buy apps. Anyone have a clue what to do?

Have you consulted with their CCE regarding this? If not, consult with them, I am sure that you will definitely get the solution!

Never a good idea to change your Apple ID unless absolutely necessary. If Apple advised you to change your password for some reason (security) then you should have done just that and not change your Apple ID at the same time. You need to contact Apple to get all that straightened out otherwise you may wind up being locked out of your computer.
