How do I delete an old apple id that continues to pop up on my iPad?
My iPad 2 defaults to an old apple id - I don't remember the password for that id ....I do have a new email id and password however but can't insert it into the text boxes because of this darn pop up that asks me to enter my old id password (which i don't know... )... HELP!
All media and apps downloaded from the app store are tied to the Apple ID used to download them.
You can not transfer them to another ID.
Your options are delete and re download the app, losing all data, or reset the password for the old ID. If you forgot your Apple ID password

How do i delete an delete delete an old Apple ID that only appears when I try to update my apps..a
All of the purchase you made on the old AppleID are permanently connected to that AppleID. The only way you can get rid of it is to repurchase everything again with the new AppleID.

How can I delete an old Apple ID that I don't need/use?
I have an old Apple ID that I'm not using or need. How do I delete it?
You don't. As far as anyone knows Apple IDs are immortal and cannot be deleted, erased, terminated, expunged, canceled, destroyed, eradicated, eliminated, annihilated, annulled, or revoked. They can only be forgotten. So forget about it.

Hi.
I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID. Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine. -

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You don't need access to the email address, just enter the address and your password, that's it. -
How do I delete an old Apple ID one my IPAD
How do you delete an old Apple ID Password on my IPAD #1 and replace it with a new apple ID?
AnaMusic and King Penquin, this is the first such inquiry I have made for Apple help. I appreciate the help. You folks are very nice. I now have my I phone where it will not let me log in to use it as I upgraded to the latest version of the operating system tonight. That was a mistake on my part.
Thanks very much. -
how do I delete an old Apple ID for iCloud on my iMac when I no longer remember password or security questons?
With iOS 7 there’s no workaround.
They should have done this.

How do I delete an old Apple ID and still update apps purchased when I was using it?
One, you cannot delete an Apple ID, all you can do is stop using it and let it fade away.
Two, apps are permanently tied to an aPple ID and can never be transferred to another. You must use that same ID to update an app, or delete the app and repurchase/download under another ID. -
How do I delete an old email account that's associated with my Apple ID? When trying to login on to my Apple account with my ipad2 the old email account is still tagged as the primary account.
OK that's what Ithought you were talking about.
You can't actually delete an old Apple ID. You just sign into the new ID to use that one. Your old ID must be popping up because you used it in the past to purchase content with it. You cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another Apple ID. You have to continue to use the old ID if you want to update content that was used to purchase with that ID.
Did you sign into your new account in the settings and you can't stay signed in? -

To remove the apple id from the device, go to Settings>icloud>delete account. NOTE: this will only remove the account from the iPad. It will not delete the account.
I hope this helps
