Deleting an Apple ID

My daughters iPad uses my Apple ID and password but recently a friend used her id on my daughters iPad mini and now when trying to update certain apps or games it asks for the friends password I have tried deleting the apps and re installing them using our id and password but when it comes to updating those apps it still asks for the friends ID?
I found one topic here that I tried to follow to delete the ID but it would only show the ID we want to use and not the friends and also again asks for the password even if we can get her ID to show and we can't get access to the password as they no longer talk?
Any suggestions?

Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store > Tap on Apple ID and Sign Out.
Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Sign in Again on iTunes and App Store and try.

I had to change my email for my apple acct on my iPhone e 4. When I go add an app or update an app the old apple email comes up. I can't delete an apple store app. So how do I refresh the apple store app?

Hi skippy2012trev,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you updated your Apple Id and password but now you are being prompted for the old information in iCloud. You are on the right track by changing the Apple ID back to the previous email address temporarily so that you can sign out. You should not need to verify the email address. After you edit the Apple ID back to the old email address and then sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, edit the Apple ID back to the address you would currently like to use. There is no need to change the password again, only the email address, unless you prefer to update the password again.
If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support
Change your Apple ID temporarily
If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't help, try these steps:
Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
Tap Settings > iCloud. Complete these steps only if the Find My [Device] setting is turned on:
Scroll down and tap Sign Out, then tap Sign Out to confirm. If you're using iOS 7 or earlier, tap Delete Account, then tap Delete to confirm.
Tap Keep on My [Device] or Delete from My [Device]. In either case, your data remains in iCloud and will be updated on your device when you sign in to iCloud again.
Enter the password for your previous Apple ID.
Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
Return to Settings > iCloud and sign in with your new Apple ID.
Cheers,
Joe

How to reset your Apple ID password.
Go to iforgot.apple.com and type in your Apple ID, then click 'Next'.
Verify your date of birth, then click 'Next'.
You'll be able to choose one of two methods to reset your password, either E-Mail Authentication or Answer Security Questions.
If neither method works, then go to https://getsupport.apple.com

Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.

How to reset your Apple ID security questions.
Go to appleid.apple.com, click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
Log in with your Apple ID and password. (If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email)
Go to the Password & Security section on the left side, and click on the link underneath the security questions that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'. This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
If that doesn't work, or there is no rescue email link available, then click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.

I used my apple Id and my iCloud account on my mom's iPhone and all my contacts and stuff went to her phone and hers on mine. I tried to delete my apple id off of her phone now how do I delete the iCloud?

I used my apple Id and my iCloud account on my mom's iPhone and all my contacts and stuff went to her phone and hers on mine. I tried to delete my apple id off of her phone now how do I delete the iCloud? And will the data from my phone be deleted too if I delete my iCloud off of her phone?

oh ok and then i need to create another id for her? would we lose all our stuff?
thank you so much!!!!
Well, yeah. You want to create separate accounts for each of you, using individual Apple IDs. I know mothers and daughters like to share clothes, shoes, handbags, etc. but don't share Apple IDs.

Family Sharing / Delete child apple ID

On this page http://support.apple.com/kb/HT201081
It is mentioned that :
“Children under 13 can't be removed from a family. If you need to, you can transfer the child to another family or delete their Apple ID.”
How can I delete their apple ID ?

Hi Jastect,
In order to edit an Child Apple Id you can just go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and log as your daughter and edit all data (except id itself and birthdate). This is possible only if you know the password :-) even without knowing, the recovery procedure is working fine.
In my case:
- I created an Child apple ID (as described in Family Sharing and Apple IDs for kids), child is -13y
- As mentioned in Leave Family Sharing : "Children under 13 can't be removed from a family. If you need to, you can transfer the child to another family or delete their Apple ID". ok, fair enough. Then I want to delete the id... But I cannot find where the delete option is available ???
Hopefully someone can help.

Is there a way to delete the Apple ID on one device (IPhone 5) and replace the ID on that device with an existing ID used on three other devices?

Is there a way to delete the Apple ID used on one device (IPhone5) and replace it with another ID that is being used on three other devices?

If you have turned on Settings > iCloud > Find My you will have to start by turning that off - requires entering the Apple ID password. Then remove the Apple ID from all places it is used, i.e., Messages, FaceTime, and so on. Go to the App Store and then Sign Out. Now you can enter the desired Apple ID and password in all of those places.

How do I delete and Apple ID ? I had a friend transfer all my stuff from his computer and I go to update or download apps his ID pops up and asks for his password instead of mine! Ugh so frustrated right now

How do I delete and Apple ID ? I had a friend transfer all my stuff from one phone to another using his computer. I can't update or download apps, his ID pops up and asks for his password instead of mine! Ugh so frustrated right now!

You can't delete an Apple ID. Furthermore, everything you transferred is tied permanently to your friend's Apple ID. You do not legally own that software. If you want that software for yourself, then you need to purchase it using your Apple ID.

Delete all your info, then change the password in something nobody can crack, don't write it down and forget it.

How to delete one apple id account when you have two

How do I delete the apple id and password I use on my iPhone
and just use the one on my MacBook for both devices.
When I bought my iPhone I tried to set up my apple id on the phone using the same username and password as on my MacBook
but it didn't like my password on the iPhone.
The password was acceptable on the MacBook but the iPone required a more complicated password.
So, I set up a separate Apple id on my iPhone
and now I have two apple ids and I'd like to delete one and just use one for both devices.

There's no way to delete an Apple ID. Just don't use it.

Can i delete an apple id?

I need to delete an apple ID so that I can use that email address for my current account without loosing all my songs. Any help?

You would have to ask Apple. You can delete the ID from your devices and stop using it, but the ID is maintained by Apple. You can also make changes to your ID if you need to (see Change your Apple ID - Apple Support).

HT1923 I can't delete the Apple folder in Common Files

My computer would not recognize my iPhone. I tried the troubleshooting tips found online, uninstalling everything in order. When verifying all files had been removed, I could not delete the Apple folder in Common Files as it says the folder or a file in it is open in another program. When checking my programs I see iCloud remains (published by Apple). Need that be uninstalled as well? How important is it to delete the Apple folder which has an Internet Services folder in which are two other folders (filled with files), an application AppleOutloodDAVConfig64, and three application extensions? I can no longer remember if my phone had remained connected to the computer throughout all of the process or not,

Does it say something is in use in there?

How do I delete the apple folder in common files

I am trying to delete the apple folder from common files. When I click on apple, internet services comes up. I tried to delet those but it says they are open in the internet. I don't know how to close them. Please help.

I just fixed this. I had to,delete iCloud from my PC. Make sure it is still on your ipad, etc.!!! There were programs open in iCloud preventing me from deleting all the apple files so that I could reinstall itunes. I did not find that out on any of the apple support postings. Apple should have told me to delete iCloud as they did the other components.

If you go onto your ipod, under settings, scroll down to icloud, there should be a botton that says, "delete account". push this, and it should delete an account.

Hello, I want to delete my apple community account. What do I need to do?
Thank you

Simple answer is that you can't. If you no longer wish to participate in the community, simply quit posting and abandon the account. It will gradually fade into obscurity. If you have a specific, compelling reason for deleting the account, reply back with the reasons and maybe one of the moderators will consider and react to your request.
