An Apple ID blocks my Apple ID

Many years ago I made an Apple ID with my current e-mail. When I needed it again I could not get the password.
I made a new Apple ID which I use now with the e-mail at work.
This works fine, except that my e-mail at home is blocked from my new Apple ID because it is used by the old one and that makes trouble for using e.g. FaceTime.
Is there no way to erase the old Apple ID?

There is not currently a way to delete an Apple ID. You could remove the email address that is coupled with both of them from the new one. This will allow you to access your old Apple ID again. Once you do, you could change the email associated with it (create one if you need to). After that, you can re-add your email address to you the new Apple ID.
to do all this, go to appleid.apple.com

    There probably is, but it requires that you be able to use punctuation and write in sentences so that we can understand exactly what you want.
    You can block others from using your Apple ID by changing your password.  There is no way to erase what was already downloaded on to someone else's device, for obvious reasons,

  • I recently upgraded to Fios Quantum and have a new ActionTech router. As a result my PC is no longer communicating with my APPLE TV.It must have a firewall or ports beegin blocked preventing the homesharing and communication even though the APPLE TV is on

    I recently upgraded to Verizon Fios Quantum high speed internet and was given an ActionTec router. I sucessfully installed all and connected wth my Apple TV. Although it worked initially it no longer does.  Something appears to be blocking  the Homesharing between my PC and the AppleTV even though the Apple TV is successfully connected to my home network. I spoke with an Apple Support Tech who was unable to help me becuase I have a PC! He admitted this is a common problem with FIOS and PCS. There must be a port that needs to be opened in the router. I do not beleive it is anything to do with my antivirus software or Windows Defender as i uninstalled all and still not communication. Must be a port within the routter that is blocking tis communication. On my Itunes you can see that it does not see the Apple TV. Please advise.

    I'd have to agree. I set my vms and two clients on Saturday in one hour. I think the picture is better I did not see an issue with the brightness. For the heck of it I recorded five channels at once to test it. I've also noticed when playing a recorded show on the client everything responds a lot quicker. So I am impressed and curious to see what new features come later.
    Kudos to verizon.

  • How can we encourage Apple to develop blocking calls from specific numbers?

    Looking through posts on here, I see that neither AT&T nor the iPhone itself permits an iPhone owner to block calls from one or more specific numbers.
    For some reason, although I've had my mobile number for years, I've recently started to receive daily calls from one specific number, an ignorant person who calls at all times of the day and night, barely apologizing for yet again dialing incorrectly. Very annoying.
    Yes, I know I could change my number, but literally hundreds of people have used this number for years, and I'm truly loathe to start over.
    In reading posts here and on AT&T, I gather this is not an uncommon problem. I assume that even if AT&T is unwilling to institute call blocking, this is a problem Apple could solve with iPhone software. What's the best way to encourage Apple to include this in a future iPhone software update?
    In advance, thanks for your guidance.

    This would be something ATT would have to do since they provide the actual phone service.
    In the meantime, you could create a ringtone of "silence" and assign it to that person's number. This way you wouldn't be disturbed when the person calls until you can work out a solution with ATT.

  • I seem to have multiple problems related or unrelated.  I cannot use Apple Mail for blueyonder and mostly for gmail as both show that the server is off line.  My pop up blocker doesn't work and I am blitzed with pop up windows on nearly every command

    Firstly I am unable to use Apple mail except for hotmail, for blueyonder, gmail or Sky as the server shows as (off line) and I have no idea how to get them on line even though I tell them to go there. 
    My pop up blocker doesn't work and I am blitzed with advertising windows virtually on ever command I make, one seems to be impossible to unsubscribe from. 
    When I am in an email with a web link the web link doesn't work and I get a window saying that I must have a pop up blocker, but if I switch it off it is no different, what does work is switching the "enable Java script off", then when I get to the web site I can't use it until I switch the java script back on.
    I can't do a screen shot either full or partial, when I try it changes the web site that is on screen to another.
    So what have I done that might have caused problems, downloading Yosemite seemed to be the start of the problems.  Since then I have started to install Mackeeper, after checking with a family members who should know, that MacPaw is safe.  I decided that I didn't want to pay the subscription, so went through the uninstall instructions but it comes up as a pop up with considerable regularity.
    My stress levels have gone through the roof with pop ups happening so regularly and not being able to use Apple mail.o can anyone help please?

  • I have a Apple Mac desktop and recently was unable to access any YouTube, movies, videos, etc because a "Blocked Plug-in" message comes up with no error message. It asks to upload Abode Reader, but upon completion of this the message is the same.

    I have a Apple Mac desktop and recently can no longer access Youtube, videos, movies, etc because I get a message reading "Blocked Plug-in". There's no error message but it does say to upload Abode Flash Player and the problem will be solved. I do this but it doesn't fix the problem. What am I doing wrong?

    if you already downloaded the adobe flash player onto your mac and still getting that message that means you need to finish the installation of the flash player
    you do this by opening a finder window and going to your downloads, find the flash player in here and then double click on it and follow the prompts to complete the installation.
    after this is completed you will need to completely quit out of the web browser you're using then reopen it for the change to take affect and your issue should be resolved. if it's not you need to contact adobe their number is 800 642-3623.

  • Help* Getting a pop up that says Your Apple computer has been blocked

    My partner was using my laptop yesterday and was trying to download the NHL hockey game stream from nhl-stream.com. He tried downloading it and downloaded MacKeeper and some video player. This morning I realized what he did so I googled how to uninstall MacKeeper and did so. I was unable to find the help file to delete for MacKeeper. I also deleted the video player and everything recent from the downloads. Now I'm havinganor problems with my MacBook Pro. When I use Safari it's no longer my regular Google homepage it's search-quick.com which I cannot get rid of? (Anyone can tell me how that would be helpful)
    My biggest problem is the pop up that comes up and says
    *YOUR APPLE COMPUTER HAS BEEN BLOCKED*
    Mac System Alert!!
    System has been infected due to unexpected error! Please Contact Apple Care 1-855-680-7080 Immediately! To unblock your computer....
    I Googled other pop ups like these on apple support and they says to hit Control W to close the window then change security preferences. The control W does not close the window I can only get rid of it by clicking Force Quit. Then when I reopen Safari either the Popup immediately comes or the first website i search it comes. Sometimes I also get new windows open for MacKeeper. This is very frustrating and I am still learning on how to work around my Mac. I have never found a problem with my computer before he went and downloaded the game.
    IF anyone can direct me in the right direction to have this removed so it's safe again to go on my banking etc that would be great! I tried to call apple support but of course my call support has expired!

    Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, close Safari, and then launch it with the Shift key held down. If that doesn't work, temporarily disconnect the computer from the Internet.
    If that message continues to appear, click here and run Adware Medic; the MacKeeper popups may also be produced by adware. You may need to use a different web browser.

  • HT204053 How can I remove an apple Id ( hotmail address)which is being used in the app store and iTunes but is actually a blocked account and use a current live account which is now set for mail etc ?

    I have 2 apple iDs ( hotmail accounts) one of which was set up some time ago and not used for awhile in which time it has become blocked. This Id is set up in iTunes and the app store. It is linked to an old email address which is no longer used which means I can't retrieve a code to reactivate. What I want to do is remove this inactive hotmail account and use the other for all access with iTunes, app store, iCloud,mail etc. without losing all apps and credits. Can this be achieved ? My daughter needs the iPad at school and at the moment can't use iCloud and mail and I am scared to add more iTunes credit when there is a problem with this account... I am desperate and have tried everything I know, thanks

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

    Call apple tech support. I had the same kind of issue with my daughters iPhone and they were very helpful

  • Can't restore apple id ,you were blocked for security reasons, but to restore the need to enter the key after typing it sends a 4-digit code on the ipad , but at ipade I am not connected to icloud ,and to connect you need to recover your account

    can't restore apple id , because apple were blocked for security reasons, but to restore the need to enter the key two- step werification . after typing it , apple sends a 4-digit code on the ipad , but at ipad I am not connected to icloud ,so i cant get code . but if i want to recover apple id, i need to  connect icloud, so what to do? help !

    I have (sorry forgot to add that). I was switched around and finally I was told I would be put through to a supervisor but after being on hold for about 10 minutes the phone went dead, I did not lose connection so I do not know if I was hung up on or there was some technical difficulty. I called again yesterday and did in fact speak with a supervisor for Account Security but he told me he did not know why it was happening and put me through to a different number but that ended up not being any helpful either. That's when I decided to give it a shot on here!

  • HT204053 I have iphone 4 and it is using my wife  . My new iphone 5 and old iphone 4 both were used same apple password, but different e-mail address . Now both apple id has beed blocked. What do I have to do.

    My both of iphone id blocked. What do I have to do?

    Sorry, but nobody here can help you nor can Apple.  The only way to disable Activation Lock on your devices is to use the password for the AppleID associated with that devices iCloud account.  There is no alternative - you need that password, or you need your friend to disable those devices in their online account.

  • I bought an iPhone 5 so i could have the possibility to use the new 4G network here in Belgium, now my provider tells me that they can't give me 4G on my iPhone 5 (any other one yes),they say because Apple blocks the use of 4G on the iPhone's here

    After buying a iPhone 5 and iPad mini, and now thinking of buying the 5S and the mini retina, I just changed to an other provider who had a much better deal for a subscription, also one of the first who offers here 4G, now just starting with my new provider and curious how the 4G connection will be, whatever I did I could not get it to work on 4G, now my provider tells me that Apple is blocking all the iPhones here to be able to work with 4G, and they let them work with 4G on only one provider here ( that's very expensive ). I was wondering if this is true or if anyone has the same experience.

    The Belgium 4G networks supported by the iPhone 5 are Mobistar and Telenet.  The other carriers's networks have yet to be approved by Apple.    Perhaps their networks are not up to Apple's standards and again, perhaps, the approval will come in the future.
    In the meantime, you can only receive 4G services from either Mobistar or Telenet.

  • Apple ID blocked on iPhone  app updates, Mastercard no longer recognized

    All the sudden my Mastercard (canada) is no longer recognized. I checked with my bank and everything seems to be fine from their side.
    Every time I type the security code, it gives me the message that " this card cannot be used with the itunes store".
    After several attempts, I gave up and modified my account to payment "None" option.
    They don't want my money: ...fine
    Now what is more annoying is that I can't update my apps anymore on my iPhone. I get the message "Apple ID blocked". However, I am able to visualize my ID on the iPhone. I modified my password. Nothing helped. I tried another ID I have from having lived for many years in Europe. All the time my Canadian ID pops up on the App update function with the message "Apple ID blocked".
    Can anybody help with that? If this continues, I am seriously thinking about legal action as I paid for these apps and now I can't access up-to-date functions for a software which I own. Any ideas if there are some consumer defense organizations out there to help with that.
    I am seriously fed up with all the time lost with this problems (3 days spending my time working on this problem now!!!!)

    So I purchased Navigon app on my iphone 4 with my iTunes account id then got a new iPhone 4s and signed in with the required Apple ID and now Navigon app does not recognize me as its owner.  When I try to restore purchases I make on the app it tells me to buy it first.  The problem seems to be it defaults to my Apple ID when I am asked for a password and does not give me the option of using my iTunes account ID and password which is what I used when I purchased the app.  HELP?

  • How do I block my roommate's apple tv from connecting to my macbook pro?

    My roommate now has an Apple TV and it is connecting to my macbook pro. Is there a way to completely block the signal and get rid of the apple tv icon on my mac? At first I didn't know what the new icon was on my menu bar, so I opened it up to see if there was a way to disable it.  Turns out my screen was broadcasted on to her TV and they could see everything I was doing.  Please tell me there is a way to block this completely so I can use my computer and not be afraid that someone can connect to my screen at any time.  Thank you. 

    Hi,
    We just bought an Apple tv for our younger son and are buying one for our older son, so I've been going through this forum to learn. I checked 'receive email notifications' to your question so I could learn from any responses you would be given. Then as I read more threads I found this thread thanks to Winston Churchill.
    Thanks for asking the question, so if the issue ever comes up... It's about setting a passcode so please check it out. I know the poster's issue is the opposite, (He just got an apple tv) but this could help.
