Deleting itunes account

I set up an iTunes account years ago.  Now I have a .me email address which I would like to use for App and music purchases.  What happens to all the content that I purchased under my old account?  Will it appear in the "cloud?"

All of the content will always be tied to the account from which they were purchased.  You will have to authorize your computer for that account.
Just change the e-mail associated with your old account to your new e-mail address.  Starting a new account generally is troublesome.

  • HT1918 How do I permanently delete iTunes account

    Hello how are you all?
    I am a visitor from India , I recently bought and iPad and to download some music and movies I created an iTunes account .
    But I'm gifting this iPad to somebody and want to make sure that my iTunes account is deleted before giving it away.
    I signed in to manage my account billing and purchases but the system merely allows me to edit my credit card info not totally erase it.
    Also I don't want to just sign out and give it away, I need that no credit card info is in my iTunes account before giving it.
    I've tried the obvious ways to manage and edit the account but I don't see anything to delete
    Even restoring the iPad with the reset feature doesn't delete the account info , it just signs you out
    I don't know though if erasing data on the iPad would help
    Please do help
    Thanks

    Erase all content and settings.
    This is covered in the manual.

  • How to delete iTunes account on iPhone and start all over?

    Family friend sold an iPhone to us. Says that he thinks that there isnt a way to delete his iTunes account, the one used to download apps and what not, and he doesnt remember his password. Is there a way to delete EVERYTHING and start from scratch? Help please.

    You restore the device as new, however if you do not have the Apple ID and password that was used to originally activate the phone, you will not be able to activate it again. The previous owner needs to follow the steps in this support document before you can use the phone. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661  That will clear all of his information from the device.

  • How to delete itunes account from macbook air 10.9

    Hi Group,
    I'm a newbie so be gentle.  I have my husband's old Macbook Air OS X 10.9 with 4 GB memory. He opened an itunes account on this computer and has the same account on his new computer. I am trying to open my own itunes account but I can't because my mac and my phone have been commandeered by his account. I can't download any tunes or apps unless I get rid of his old account and open my own. Any advice?

  • How can I delete an iTunes account that has been deactivated?

    I deleted an old Apple ID with the help of a call to Apple Support.  However, my iphone is still trying to use the old ID.  How do I log out of the old ID and into the new?  Or, how can I delete the old ID when it has already been deactivated?  (Cannot delete with phone)

    Only iTunes Support can potentially delete an account (which would also delete any purchase history for it, so you would no longer be able to authorise that content on a computer, redownload it, and download updates to its apps) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    Or you could just remove any personal info from it (e.g. payment details if you have any on it) and stop using it

  • TS1702 How can i delete my iTunes Account?

    Because of the new Security questions that iTunes has put on my Account, I can not download new apps to put on my phone. I have been in contact with Apple, iTunes and iCloud. Now I am to the point I just want to delete my current account and make a new one. This is so stupid, iTunes has been no help to me at all, the Apple people where rude to me and the iCloud has not even contacted me back. What am i soppose to do. I am very upset with all 3 of these company's, if you are going to change you product tell the people that are using it that you are going to change it and if there is a problem fix it. This is stupid i am now going on 2 weeks of not being able to download anything. I think that iTunes should allow me to at least make my own security questions and if you are going to make them for the customer at least let that person know the answer to there own account. I am going to say it again and again this corruptions needs to take responsiblity of there actions and if there is a problem fix it....

    Actually Brooke, iTunes did that for additional Security purposes. It's not corruption. If iTunes is corrupt, they could've not entitled customers for refund when the customers does not want what they bought. If you're going to delete the account, all of your purchases will be gone. The security questions are originally set-up by you. If you can't remember setting them up, iTunes would likely ask you three questions. If it is asking you 3 questions, it means it's asking you to setup the questions now. If it's asking you 2 questions, it means it has been configured by YOU before. Go to appleid.apple.com to manage your apple id and see if you have a rescue email address where you can easily send the reset security questions email.

  • How do I delete one of the two itunes accounts on my iPhone?

    I used to sync my phone on my daughter's computer, and somehow both accounts (mine and hers) got on my iPhone. When I try to download or update apps, it either asks for my password or my daughter's, and I can't update my apps anymore because I do not have the password to her account. How do I delete her account off of my iPhone? I've looked everywhere online and can't find the answer. Also, I'm now syncing on a different computer without her account, but it still hasn't deleted. PLEASE help

    All apps - all paid and free apps include DRM protection that is tied to the iTunes that was used to download the apps. This means you have apps on your iPhone that were downloaded with your daughter's iTunes account. Apps cannot be transferred or merged with another iTunes account.
    Delete the apps from your iPhone that were downloaded with your daughter's iTunes account to prevent being prompted for the account's password when there are app updates for the apps downloaded with the account. An iTunes account cannot be deleted.

  • How do I delete an app installed with an old iTunes account?

  • How do I delete photos from my daughter's ipod that showed up on there when she got music from her aunt's itunes? Also how do I make sure none of my iphone pics show up on her ipod in the future (we use the same itunes account and I think same icloud).

    I'm totally new to iphone/ipod.  I need help with the following:
    1) How do I get rid of a folder of photos that showed up on my daughter's ipod touch when she received some songs from her aunt's itunes?  After she got some songs from that itunes a folder of pictures showed up with no delete option.  Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?
    2) Also, my daughter uses same itunes as myself, how do I make sure any pics I have on my iphone & icloud (itunes) don't show up on her ipod? I shut off my photostream so perhaps this is the solution.  But I noticed that a message I sent from her ipod to my sister (an iphone user) later showed up on my iphone (as if I had sent it from my iphone)! That was really odd. I'd like to keep our itunes account together simply so I can monitor her downloads, etc so I don't want to open up her own itunes to avoid automatic syncing.
    I only want to share music between our devices.  I don't want her pics nor my pics to go to icloud/itunes.
    Thank you!

    1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.

    2)
    Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

    - Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with hers

  • I had to change e-mail addresses and no longer remember my iCloud password for my old iTunes account. My iOS wont let me delete the old account without the password, how can I troubleshoot this? I tried my new password with no luck

    I had my iTunes account synced with an old e-mail account. I no longer remeber my password for this account and no longer have access to this e-mail account. I was able to change my information to a new e-mail in iTunes and iCloud with no trouble but my iOS device keeps asking me for the password to my old iTunes account which I can't remember. It defaults the e-mail reset password to the account I can no longer access and also says the date of birth I am entering does not match the records they have... I'm so confused, and I really dont get how my birthday is wrong? When trying to delete the account all together from iOS it asks again for the password...can anyone help me? Thanks!

    Is your phone still signed in with your old iTues ID for iCloud (in Settings>iCloud)?
