Can't logout old iCloud from Mac

I have an old iCloud logged in with my Mac and it tied to my mac user account too. I created a new iCloud account because I failed to change the email address for the old one at the beginning. I tried to change in system preference, was asked to enter password and i did with the password that i was using, failed to login. I went to the whole iForgot thing trying to reset my password, entered my old iCloud email and they said that they have sent me an email with instruction how to reset password and I never received any... I'm now stuck between new and old iCloud account. All the applications are in new iCloud but not the laptop user account. I can shut down the computer and login with old iCloud and old passport when I turn it on, but I can't login with the same way when I just simply log out from the user account. It doesn't allow me to change/add any user account to this laptop because it doesn't accept my old password and it is still in the old iCould. What I can do to delete/change the old iCloud in this laptop to my new one that I am using.

Hey ClaraWong1990,

It sounds like you’re running into a couple issues related to Apple ID accounts, you’re unable to reset the password for your old account and you haven’t received the email verification for your new account.

What do you mean by "renamed" the account?
Have you went to Settings>iCloud and deleted the account from the iPod and then signed back in with the "renamed" account?

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.

HT1689 Can I turn on iCloud from computer to iPod?

I didn't turn on iCloud on my iPod Touch 4G, I have it registered, can I turn on iCloud from my computer to my iPod without having to connect the iPod to the computer?

No, All you can do it try to find it the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.
- Apple will do nothing

How to remove the old icloud from my ipad??? My old office email doesn t work anymore

HOw to remove my old icloud from my ipad??? my old email is deleted

The existence or non existence of the email address associated with an Apple ID is not relevant to the functionality of the iCloud account.
You can go to http://appleid.apple.com And Update the associated email address to a new functional one.
Make sure you sign out of iCloud on your iPad in, Settings->iCloud->Sign Out, before updating. Then Sign bakc in after you have updated the email address.
Thus you keep all your itunes purchases and content in iCloud associated with that ID.

How caN I reach my iCloud from someone else's device?

How can I access my iCloud from a friends iPad ??

You cannot get to your iCloud account from an iOS device other than your own where you have iCloud signed on. You can access Find My iPhone on another device by clicking on the Find My iPhone App, and signing on with your iCloud ID.
You can access your iCloud account from a computer by going to iCloud.com
What is it that you are needing to do?

Did you select the Pages app to sync to the iPad? Do you know how to do that or do you auto sync and rely on that only?

Can I interrupt a migration from Mac Book Pro to Imac and what are the consequences

can I interrupt a migration from Mac Book Pro to iMac and what are the consequences

Les:
Here are some options:
• You could copy the data file to your laptop, work on it, and update the file on the iMac when you are back.
• You can use an application like Log Me In to access your home computer from your laptop.
• You can use DropBox. Install it on both computers, place your data file in a folder on the iMac, access it and work on it on your laptop and it will be automatically updated on your computer at home, even if it is not turned on, as soon as it is connected to the internet.
Please do post back with further questions or comments.

What kind of mac would I need for Nexflix, basic search and email? Also, sounds silly, but can I connect an HDMI from Mac to tv?

Just an FYI. The Macs named PowerMac date from early 2006 and before. Use this tip to discover where to post once you get your Mac:

The cheapest Mac available new is a Mac Mini. It is no bigger than many an external hard drive. But the screen and keyboard and mouse must be purchased separately. They support USB and Bluetooth keyboards and mice, and pretty much any DVI, HDMI, or displayport display. Although the iMac is certainly an attractive option if all you want to deal with is deciding on a printer. I still recommend getting an Apple USB keyboard for the occasional times you may need to troubleshoot startup issues. Normally not a problem, but as it gets older some issues can be fixed at startup or diagnosed at startup.

Thanks for that, it was really helpful.
Glad to hear that worked for you. While formatting an external drive with a Mac format is best if it will be used only with a Mac, if the files on the drive have to be accessible to a PC also, it's possible to format it in an exFAT format, which both the Mac and a PC can read from and write to. However, if you do that, do the actual formatting while the external is connected to the PC.
