How to get rid of an old Apple ID on my iphone 5 ? The ID belongs to a store I bought my iphone from ,and it's in another country.

You can't. That's the new security feature of iOS7 that users (and others) requested to prevent stolen devices from being restored by theives and reused. Contact the "store" you purchased your phone from and see what they say.

How do i get rid of an old apple id from an iphone upon activation IOS 7

This phone was sold to me by a friend and it had and account upon activation, my freind doesn't know the information how do I get rid of the account so I can use the phone?? Please I need to know I lost my other phone and I am trying to use this one.

The "friend" will have to log in to his or her Apple ID and disable Find my iPhone. Or unlink by logging in to iCloud using the correct Apple ID and password and unlinking the phone. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661 for what your friend has to do before you can use the phone.
I am truly amazed that a friend would sell you a phone without wiping out its contents, which must contain a lot of sensitive personal information. And to wipe it clean the friend would have had to disable Find my iPhone.
Activation Lock is Apple's antitheft feature, that prevents a stolen iPhone from ever being used again. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818 for how it works.

HT5622 How do you get rid of an old Apple ID that hasn't been used in a while in which you no longer remember the password and the email account no longer exists?

How do you get rid of an old Apple ID that hasn't been used in a while in which you no longer remember the password and the email account it's tied to no longer exists?

The password will not be sent to you, because Apple does not know it. They will send a link where you can reset the password. It will be sent to your Rescue email address, not the iCloud email address. If you don't have one contact Apple Account Security and they can reset it for you: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

I no longer have access to the email address used as my Apple ID and when I choose to answer security questions, my DOB had to have been originally entered incorrectly because it keeps failing. How do I get rid of my old Apple ID and create a new one?

Contact Apple, either through the link in that article or by phoning them. Alternatively, just create a new Apple ID; previous iTunes Store purchases won't be transferred to it.

I have a new iPhone 5S. While trying to learn about it, I accidentally recorded a voice memo with no content. I cannot now figure out how to get rid of it. There is a banner across the top of my phone with this memo which I don't want. Help!

I have a new iPhone 5S. While trying to learn about it, I accidentally recorded a voice memo with no content. I cannot now figure out how to get rid of it. There is a banner across the top of my phone with this memo which I don't want. I have deleted it from iTunes but cannot get it off the phone. Help!

The banner usually indicates that the memo is "Paused." If you go back into voice memos, touch the word "Done" beside the big red pause button, give it a name, then it will show in a list. Touch the memo in the list then touch the trash can icon that should appear.

How to get rid of /j2ee prefix from URL when I use the OC4J via Oracle HTTP server

In 9iAS 9.0.2 Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) is pre-configured to assign requests to the Home OC4J instance via the URL-prefix "/j2ee"/
For example, the TEST servlet under OC4J would be passed through OHS using:
http://urmachine:urApachePort/j2ee/TEST
whereas in the standlone OC4J version, this URL works:
http://urmachine:urOC4JPort/TEST

Just upgraded iPhone 3GS to IOS5. Now there's 21GB of Others. How to get rid of it? It's taken up all the space on the phone.

Just upgraded iPhone 3GS to IOS5. Now in itunes I can see there's 21GB of Others. I have no idea what is that. I didnt have that before the upgrade. How to get rid of it? It's taken up all the space on the phone.

I posted a fix for this temporary issue earlier but here it is in short:
The memory "hog" that is "others" seems to be the OS as it's installing. It seems to want more than 12GB and you may get stuck at the point where iTunes tries to load everything back on and the iPhone has run out of space. What you need to to is un-check the "sync" box at the apps, music, podcasts and other sections, then click the button to sync iTunes with iPhone. This will result in iTunes deleting all the data it restored, but you'll put it back later. Once you caused the deletion of most of the data, iOS5 will resume installing and then "magically" shrink to less than 1GB. Then you can place check marks back in the boxes and re-sync all your apps and other data. You will have plenty or memory left.
I followed the above procedure and my iPhone works perfectly.
Hope this helps.

Q:-
How can I remove my very old Apple ID from my Iphone 4S. The old ID is still staying on my mobile but that email doesn't exist anymore. I cant rest my mobile as everytime i tried it asks ID password which I don't remember.

Hello mushysun,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you did not sign out of your Apple ID on your iPhone before creating a new one, then you will need to sign back in with your previous Apple ID and then sign out. If you do not remember your password and do not have access to the email account, then you can reset your password by using the security questions.
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support

How to get rid of an old account?

How do I get rid of an old itunes account, it pops up when using my ipad or iphone but not when using itunes on the computer. I have checked my account id on my computer and it has the current, right account. What do I need to do? Also one other question....how do I delete songs or albums? I have right clicked on them in the music library and then delete, then delete again, and I have deleted from my trash can but they keep popping up ready to download again. Sorry for so many questions.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Michelle

Sign out of that account on your ipad/iphone and sgn into the right one.
This is covered in the settings section of the manual.
Any apps purchased using the old account will always be tied to that account and will always hve to be updated using that account.

HT1918 How do I get rid of an old Apple Id?

I've tried taking an old Apple ID off of my itunes account, but it doesn't recognize the password and won't email it to me. It also does not recognize my birthday. How do I get rid of this old account forever!

If oyu get rid of the account you will lose all of your previous purchases. Your best bet is to call AppleSupport because they are now reseting the passwords and the security questions on there.

How to get rid of background noise when recording voice on iphone 5 ?

every time i record a voice over i hear wierd background noise can someone tell me how to get rid of it im using my headphones to record btw

Go to System Preferences / Sound and click on the Input button. You should see two items listed in the device menu: the Internal Microphone and Line In. (There may be others if you also are using your USB or Firewire ports for input devices.)
Select Internal Microphone and adjust the Input Volume control to the far left (minimum). This will mute the computer's internal microphone.
Then select the Line-In (or other device) and adjust the input level as needed to make your recording.
Good luck.

How do i get rid of my first apple id when i got the phone

how do i get rid of my first apple id when i bought the phone

I don't think this is the easiest way. Have you concidered creating a new account and just... ignoring the last one? If this idea is not to your liking, just simply ring up apple. From what I know, you cannot cancel and account, but, I think that apple might be able to.

HT5622 How do I get rid of my old Apple ID? I don't have access to that email.

I recently changed my password and my password isn't working. Also, I still have my old Apple ID when i'm trying to enter my password and it won't let me change it to my new one. I changed it because I no longer have access to so I would appreciate it if someone can help me with this problem.
<E-mail Edited by Host>

Once an Apple ID is created it can never be removed. Just don't use it anymore. But all items purchased under that ID will always stay with it and you would need to re-purchase those items under your new Apple ID.
There was an article on one of the Mac Mag websites about just this problem with the Apple ID.
Also if you create an Apple ID using one of the Apple email addresses, @me, @mac, @icloud, you can never change the primary email address that ID is associated with.
What you should of done is changed the primary email address associated with that Apple ID instead of creating a new ID.
Apple needs to fix this but they are slow to even acknowledge there is a problem with their Apple ID system.

Check the System Preferences again under Accounts. Choose your account and then check the startup items. You've probably got one in there that is looking for an item which no longer exists.
