How can I get rid of my icloud account

appointments in my calendar only show up when I am connected with my Icloud account, If I am logged out I am not able to add new appointments in my calender.
A lot of stupid questions when I am logging off
As far as I am concerned ICloud is a a pain in the *** and I want to get rid of it asap.

Your computer will automatically connect and disconnect from iCloud as it needs to, while it remains logged in to the account.
You should not log-out of iCloud in System Preferences on your Mac when shutting your computer down, or at any other time, as this will prompt you to remove the iCloud data from your computer (which you don't want).
Just leave iCloud signed in in System Preferences and forget about it.
If you need to change any of your preferences you'd need to be logged in anyway.
The only reasons to ever log out of iCloud are for troubleshooting purposes, or if you ever decide you never want to use iCloud again.

  • TS4002 I have two mail accounts.  One is called icloud and one is called Icloud.  How do I get rid of the Icloud account without removing the icloud account?

    Under Mailboxes, there is a list:
         All Inboxes
         Icloud
         iCloud
         VIP
    Under Accounts
    @ Icloud
    (cloud symbol) iCloud
    In Settings, there is only one (cloud symbol) account:  iCloud
    Under Settings ==> Mail, Contacts, Calendars, there are two accounts.
         iCloud is for Mail, Notes, Photos, find My iPad, Documents & Data
         Icloud is only for Mail, Notes
    I can turn mail off for the Icloud account.  If I turn off Notes, there is a warning:  All IMAP notes will be removed from you iPad.
    I can turn off mail and notes for the iCloud account.  No problems
    The Default Account for Notes is Icloud.
    I have changed the Default Accounts for Notes to "On My iPad."   Still not able to turn of the notes in the Icloud Account.
    And, now for something completely different!  The multiple mail box accounts do not show up in the Mail app.  There are still multiple accounts for notes.

    I went to Notes.  Showed all notes.  Three notes are duplicated, one on iCloud and one on Icloud.  I deleted one of the notes and checked to see if the other still existed.  It did.  I deleted the other two notes.  I check all notes and found that the three notes were deleted on both accounts.  The only notes on this device are under On My iPad.
    I went into system settings and tried to delete the Icloud account.  The warning comes up:  This will delete all IMAP notes on your device.  Will this also delete the notes in On My iPad?

  • How can I transfer "notes" from one icloud account to another, and other account questions

    Hey,
    I currently have 2 icloud accounts. (In total I have 4 seperate apple ids somehow, 1 @me.com, 1 @icloud.com, 1 @gmail.com, and 1 apple id. But that's a problem I'll talk about later).
    Right now, all of my notes got deleted from my iphone, but they are on the icloud account A: (@me.com account's icloud.) When I reconnect this account to my iphone, the notes are there. However, when I turn off note syncing in my iphone's icloud settings, I'm not prompted to "keep data on iphone" (like I am prompted with contacts). Instead, they are just deleted from the iphone. So there's no way to connect the icloud account A, download the data, and reconnect icloud account B.
    How can I get these notes from icloud account A to icloud account B (or just getting it from icloud account A to my iphone.)
    And while I'm at it, how can I get the @icloud account that was linked with the @me.com account to get linked to the @gmail.com account.
    Sorry if this is confusing.

    Let me rephrase my comment...  I used Windows to sync my data without icloud, we decided to switch to mac and purchased a $2000 osx driven machine only to find out apple has "secretly" disabled mobile sync services and replaced it with icloud syncing.  There was NO documentation stating this fact before my purchase, it was only realized when users started running into syncing issues that apple disclosed mavericks no longers uses mobile syncing services and "requires you to use icloud to sync device information" on this forum.
    They removed a integral part of my privacy without telling me, or warning me, before i spent money on non-refundable merchandice.
    These are not mindless, I was forced into mavericks when i purchased a new mac... All other versions of OSX provide modile syncing services.
    And I was not threatening lawsuit, i was stating a thought that this leavs apple open to a lawsuit for people who want their data kept private, they are FORCING the use of icloud now.

  • How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device? It still shows up as purchased books on "Icloud".

    How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device but still shows up as "purchased books" on "Icloud". I don't want to see some of these books at all. I can sort by one that are PDFs and ones currently on device, but it still gives option to show those old titles. Does anyone know how to erase your "Icloud" history, please?

    Nooooooo! lol... If I want to download again I will, I don't want an electronic trail. Plus when I have Ibooks open, sometimes I will accidently hit the item and it will immediatly try to download it. The problem with that is that its "Time magazines Best Photos of 2012" etc and it locks up my IPAD cuz of sheer size of the book. So I would like it gone from the history. Isn't there a way to clear the history?

    If you have 2 accounts in AB (iCloud and On My Mac) stop looking at both of them simultaneously.

  • How can I get rid of duplicate birthdays in icloud Calendar, especially when there are no Contacts in the iCloud? Case ID: 365381395

    How can I get rid of duplicate birthdays in icloud Calendar, especially when there are no Contacts in the iCloud? Case ID: 365381395

    Found the answer myself while helping to set up iPhone.  It is simple when you know how.  Before signing out of iCloud to sign in again and restore the link to Photo Stream I had opted to copy iCloud contacts to the Mac.  When I signed in again this created two iCloud views which can be seen in Contacts Preferences.  I just disabled one of them.  Not brave enough to attempt removal but I gues this would work too.

  • In "View Options", "iCloud Download" will not stay declicked. How can I get rid of it?

    In iTunes 11.0.1 (12):
    1. under "View Optiuons", "iCloud will not stay declicked. How can I get rid of it?
    2. when I go to "albumns" can i get a list of what I have put in that field on each playlist, instead of a sea of empty graphics?

    You can download your movies and tv shows to your iTunes library (depending on your location) as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.
    What you are seeing is "iTunes in the Cloud", which is a separate service that allows you to download previously purchased media from the iTunes and App store.  This does not require setting up an iCloud account so it's likely you don't have one.  (If you don't want to see this previously purchased media available for download in your iTunes library, you can open iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Store and uncheck "Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases".)

  • ITunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

    iTunes on iCloud has created unwanted multiple playlists. How can I get rid of them?

    Hi, if this is in regards to your library simply open up itunes and do the following steps:
    Click File
    Scroll down to "show duplicates"
    A list will then appear of your duplicate song titles.
    Be sure to CAREFULLY review each song to make sure it is a duplicate ( as I have some music that is the same song but live, acoustic etc...)
    Proceed to manually delete each song from the list and leave alone any song that you wish to keep.
    For playlists, you will need to hit the name tab so that your doubles line up, from there you will have to manually delete them, it helps to hold the Control button to select multiple songs as a time ( they will be highlighted) then when your done selecting the songs you wish to delete, right click your mouse and select the delete option from the window tab.
    Best of luck, please rate my response for help!

  • My ical is showing "on my mac" "iCloud" and "yahoo" calendars. I just want one calendar that will sync up to my iPhone. How can I get rid of all these Calendars???

    My ical is showing "on my mac" "iCloud" and "yahoo" calendars. I just want one calendar that will sync up to my iPhone. How can I get rid of all these Calendars??

    'On My Mac' and Yahoo calendars won't sync to iCloud. You can move them to iCloud, but then Yahoo will lose contact with its calendars. if you are happy to sync onlly with iCloud, and thus to your iPhone, you can move the calendars: you will have to do it one at a time, and the process is just a trifle convoluted - it's described in the first set of numbered instructions here:

  • I have music on my iCloud that is not mine. How can I get rid of it?

    I recently synced my ipad mini with my laptop and now there is music on my ipad which is not mine. How can I get rid of it and more importantly, how did it get there?  Thanks

    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Store
    Tap the Apple ID then tap Sign Out then sign in with your Apple ID.
    Perhaps you have more than one user account on your laptop and iTunes content was synced using another Apple ID from that account.

  • How can I get rid of phantom star ratings in iTunes (10.6.3)? They serve no purpose that I can see.

    How can I get rid of phantom star ratings in iTunes (10.6.3)? They serve no purpose that I can see. thx

    After you sign in with the old ID and are presented with the option to keep the information on the iPad, you should say yes to that. Then you should be able to delete the account on the device. After you delete the account, you can - or you should be able to - sign in with the new Apple ID.
    I tried these very same steps on my Pod Touch and it worked exactly the way that I'm describing. When you sign in again with the new ID, you will be given the option to merge Reminders, Bookmarks, Etc, with those in iCloud.com. I selected the option to merge all of the information. Nothing was duplicated and everything was exactly as it was before I deleted the iCloud account.
    So ... sign into your new ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store. Tap the old ID and sign out. Then sign in with the new ID. Then delete the old iCloud account like I explained above and then sign in with the new Apple ID, all of your purchased content and iCloud content should be good to go.
