Can't delete old email from iCloud

Forgot password of [email protected] that related to Apple ID but I do remember Apple ID password
then I have changed the email address to [email protected]
and deleted email address [email protected] from Apple ID
changed iTunes code to [email protected] ok
but I still can't delete iCloud email address [email protected]

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    Welcome to the Apple community Pavinee Supajilt.
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

    Can I delete old backups from other devices if my new iphone 6 has a current backup with everything on my new phone?

    Hi there dyarrell,
    You can do this if you are confident that your current device has all of the data on it that you want to keep. The method for deleting the backup will be differnt depending on the backup method. Take a look at the articles below for more information.

    Hi there Lindlylou!
    I have an article here that can explain a little more about the feature you are referencing, called AirPrint:
    AirPrint Basics
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    That article will contain information about which printers are AirPrint compatible, as well as information about how to use AirPrint on your iPad. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • How can I delete a song from iCloud / iTunes Match, but keep it on my Mac?

    How can I delete a song from iCloud / iTunes Match, but keep it on my Mac?
    I subscribed to iTunes Match a few weeks ago and my entire library was uploaded.  I do not want all of my library in the Cloud, especially given that there is a space/song limitation.  Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Apologies Brandon, we have moved on somewhat from your original question.
    What I have done is effectively used Michael's idea. I'll try to explain a little further.
    You can run iTunes match on up to 5 computers, and you can edit the iCloud library on any of them. Michael's idea works on the basis that, whilst you can edit the iTunes library, you can't remove songs from other computers.
    I have basically the same setup as you, but I also have a MacBook Air, which is running iTunes Match but without any music downloaded so it all streams.
    I added the songs on my main library, which then added them to the cloud. When they appeared on my MacBook I deleted them straight away. As there was no local copy I was asked if I wanted to delete them from the cloud, and I said yes. When I went back to my main computer I found that, as expected, they were still there, but the iCloud status is "removed". They are therefore on my library but not in iCloud.
    Since then I have run match updates a couple of times and there is no sign as yet that it will try to add them back to the cloud. It's too early to say that this is a definate answer to your problem, but it looks very hopeful.
    Our other discussions have moved onto the 25,000 son limit, which I note from your comment you may also be interested in. Watch this space.
    If you don't have access to a second computer to run the other library on then look back at Michael's post where he explains how to set it up on your main computer.
    Hope that clarifies a bit.

    When I set up my iPhone, I accidentally put in an apple ID that doesn't exist. Therefor, I don't know the password and can't delete my account from iCloud. I was trying to sync my contacts to my iPad and now it's not possible without iCloud on my phone. Can anybody help?

    Have you tried changing the admin password in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Password   ??
    The Apple ID that is associated with your admin password is noted there.

  • How can I delete old email addresses from the "From" drop down menu when sending emails?

    I have some old email addresses, I think may be aliases that show up in the drop down box  in the "From" in email messages that I send.
    They don't show up anywhere in the Preferences/Accounts panel at all.
    Very perplexed at this one.

    From the Mail menubar, click Window and select Previous recipients. In there you can delete old email contacts.

  • Is there a way to delete old emails in icloud all at once instead of 6 at a time?

    Is there a way to delete all the old emails in icloud with one click of a button instead of 6 at a time?

    If it's an iCloud email account, go to icloud.com from your computer.  Then you can select email by clicking the first, then shift-clicking that last and pressing your delete key.  Don't try to delete more than about 500 at a time or it will probably hang.
    If it's a different email provider, go to their webmail site and do the same thing.

  • How can I delete all songs from iCloud library?

    Hi,
    I have a strange issue and couldn't really find any information about this on Google, so I thought I would try here. I'm kind of surprised this hasn't come up for other users yet (or maybe it has and I'm just missing it.)
    I matched my iTunes library yesterday. About 60% of the songs were matched, 15% were uploaded and 25% were errored. I really like iTunes Match but I decided that I want to micromanage the library to get the best match results. To do this, I wanted to do the following:
    1. Remove all songs from my iCloud library
    2. Create a new iTunes library for use with iTunes
    3. Add to the library, artist by artist to match/correct.
    I began to do this in my new library and it was working fine. However I then decided to completely clear the old library, so I went into my original library, deleted all songs and definitely selected the option to delete from iCloud. I am 100% positive I did this. However, none of the songs deleted. They are not available in my original library (I have checked the option to display songs not on this computer) and they don't show up in my other library, either. I have no option to download the songs from iTunes on any computer, though I retain access from my iPhone.
    So, I need to delete these songs from iCloud. It does me no good to have them there when they're so disorganized and especially when I can't access them from most of my iTunes enabled devices. I was thinking of calling Apple to see if they could clear my iCloud library but a. I'm not sure they will and b. I don't want to pay $29 to discuss this with them, as I feel it is an issue with iTunes Match/iCloud and should be complimentary.
    I thought that maybe the songs would delete over time, since I know the iCloud servers are heavily taxed at the moment. However, it has been about 15 hours and there is absolutely no change. The iMatch section of iTunes shows that there are songs available, but none of them are; and since my plan is to reupload to iCloud anyway, that's fine--I just need to find out how to actually make the delete go through.
    Thanks!

    I called Apple and spoke with a customer service representative regarding this issue. I was given the two things to try, and if they don't work, I was told I can call back in:
    1. Go to iCloud.com and look at the advanced options. Since Photos can be deleted here, the representative thought there may be an option to remove songs here as well.
    2. Go into the library that has the songs that were deleted and click Update iTunes match.
    I tried #1--this didn't resolve the issue, as there is no option to remove songs this way. I can't try #2 right now since I'm at work, but if anybody else with this issue can try that step it can help us get the ball rolling on it. After I try that, I'll call Apple back to discuss this further.

    Sign in to your gmail account from a web browser on your computer, click the gear on the top right then settings, click the forwarding tab enable forwarding and enter your iCloud.com email address and set the drop down to leave a copy on gmail then save changes.
