How can I delete an old device from icloud

I need to remove my old iPhone 5 from icloud, but every forum i see, the descriptions don't match my experience on icloud.com.  I can't get to Products or Manage by Devices, where I can remove the device. I don't have my device.  I am looking to do this on icloud.com

Hey sharb830,
You should be able to remove iCloud from a device from there but would need to be erased. If you can get the device to erase then you will not see the option to remove the device from iCloud. For more information take a look at the article below.

Take care,

  • How can I delete an old file from my library on iTunes

    Occasionally I have to replace PDF manuals with ones that have been updated.  But after I sync the new file the old one remains on my Mac itunes library.  How can I delete the old file?  So far all I do is deselect the old file but it's still there.  Sooner or later there will be more old files then current ones making it hard to manage.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can do this with or without the iPad connected to your Mac.
    Launch iTunes on the Mac. Click on Books under the Library heading. Click on the PDFs. Then click on the PDF that you want to delete in order to select it, and go to Edit>Delete and follow the on screen prompts.
    if you are using iTunes 11 and do not have the sidebar enabled, and wish to do so, go to View>Show sidebar or use the keyboard shortcut OPTION+Command+S.
    If you do not want to enable the sidebar, the library items can be accessed in the button in the upper left corner of the iTunes window.

  • How can i delete an registered device from apple account.

    Hallo
    I registered 4 device to my itunes account sometime ago a got a virus in my network and i must re-install the operating System an all 4 devices....
    So now my question..
    How can i delete the now "not more available" devices from my apple/itunes account.
    Sorry for my bad english if it is possible you can also answer in german or in simple english
    thank you

    If your system crashes or you reinstall your operating system without deauthorising iTunes first, even a single computer can use up your limit of 5 authorisations. You can't deauthorise those dead installations individually. However once you've reached your limit of 5 you have the option to deauthorise them all in one go from your iTunes Store account and start over again. *Just note that you can only use this option once a year*: About iTunes Music Store Authorisation and Deauthorisation
    To deauthorise all computers associated with your account:
    1. Click iTunes Store in the Source pane.
    2. If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
    3. Click the Account button again (your ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
    4. In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.

  • How can I delete uploaded digital videos from iCloud?

    I have uploaded many digital videos that I have purchased and they have taken up almost all of my icloud space.  How can I delete them to free up space in icloud?  There's no more room to back up my devices.

    iCloud seems to be a shapeshifter of mobile me. I can't stand it and can't wait to get it out of my systems. Unbelieveable! A company with so much market share, unable to get it right...  Is this a joke? Good thing I'm not running that company! Someone needs to wake up and begin delivering 'state of the art' software for their 'state of the art' hardware. WHERE'S THE SUPPORT??

  • HT5824 How can I delete all my contacts from icloud with a single command?

    I would like to delete all my contacts from iCloud so when I synchronize with my other devices, the one I already have don't be duplicated or deleted

    If you delete all your iCloud contacts, then enable contact syncing with your other devices, the empty iCloud contacts are likely to overwrite the contacts on your other devices and you will lose them.
    Do you have a master list of contacts on one of your devices that you are trying to replace the iCloud contacts with?

  • How can I delete my old Laptop from my iPhone (iTunes Wifi Sync) and connect it to my new Laptop

    HI;
    I have an iPhone 4S Factory Unlocked, up to date (iOS 6.0.1). I connect it to my Laptop named "The Love" via USB and opend iTunes and checked Sync over Wifi to enable this feature. Everything works great.
    After a couple months I sold my Laptop and bought a new Laptop named "Raid", I did the smae steeps, connect it to my new Laptop via USB and opend iTunes and I checked Syn over Wifi to enable this feature and hit Apply, also I did the sync via USB cable and it works fine.
    Now I want to sync via wifi, so I went to General --> iTunes Wi-Fi Sync --> here my iPhone still showing "Sync will resume when "The Love-PC" is available", Okay I sold it!! What I will do! I stock! does this mean I will need to find my old Laptop and buy it back????!!!!
    I tried to do those steeps over and over, same result, my iPhone stock with the my old Laptop, It seems my iPhone liked my "The Love" Laptop
    My question is:
    How do I delete this setting? and connect it to my new Laptop?
    All the best;

    Well " even if I plugged it via usb" I meant that I did all the spteps, connect my iPhone via USB, Open iTunes, Check on Sync this device via WiFi, click on Sync, Unplug the iPhone.
    Again I DO NOT HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE USB OR SYNC MY IPHONE THROUGH ITUNES VIA USB
    I HAVE AN ISSUE TO SYNC MY IPHONE VIA WIFI (WIRELESSLY), THAT IS MEAN SYNC MY IPHONE WITH ITUNES WITHOUT USING USB CABLE.

  • I can't remove my old devices from iCloud

    Hello,
    Apple start new feature on iCloud.com same like in iOS named SETTINGS. In "My Device" section I see all my apple device, but I found that I had seen my old macbook and my old iPhone 5s (see the screenshot). When I sold my old device I made factory reset and remove before that from "Find My Device". Any idea how I can remove them forever.
    Thanks!

    I'd wait a while.  A number of people have complained about this and I suspect Apple will find a way to remove them (such as by removing them automatically after a certain period of inactivity).
    You can help influence this by providing your feedback here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html.

  • How can I remove my old iPad from Icloud!

    The problem is I've sold my ipad2 and that iPad was used by my account! But now this is not belong to me anymore, how can I remove the iPad from my account! When she opens ICloud , I can see her photo via photo stream! That makes me in trouble! Plsssss help me!

    You should've deleted your iCloud account from the iPad BEFORE you sold it.
    Now the new owner is using your iCloud account, and can access your email, contacts and calendars too.
    Contact the buyer and ask them to sign up for their own iCloud account and use that instead.
    If you can't contact the buyer, change the password for your iCloud account so they can't use it anymore.

  • How can I delete previously approved devices from my itunes account?

  • How to delete an old device from icloud

    I have an old iPhone 5 that I sold listed on my device list.  I would like to delete it but don't know how.
    I sold the device and reset it.  I am running Yosemite 10.10 and IOS 8.

    There is no software function that allows you to this.
    Exit from the Desktop Manager.
    You need to go into the Documents and Settings Folder, your user, Application Data, Research in Motion, Blackberry Desktop, Devices, and then delete the folder that has the PIN number of the device you want to delete.
    That wil do the trick.
    Turn on DM 6.0 and the unwanted device will no longer be there.

  • How can I see my old photos from icloud?

    I saved everything in icloud before I totally reset my phone. Is it still possible to see my photos from itunes?

    I would not expect anything to download, since streaming only starts when you turn on photostream on the device and you just turned it on. Once you make first picture it will stream right away. Check out photostream FAQs.
    iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ - Support - Apple
    in order to get all pictures from old phone, you need to create old phone back up and restore new phone from that back up.
    Check out instructions.

    You will find two sets of insturctions - by using icloud or itunes.

    When I try to update apps on my iPhone, sometimes my apple ID is shown as my current email, and sometimes my old email comes up. How can I delete the old email from my account?

    I just delete the old app and repurchase the app again? They are all free apps.
    That's what I'd do, since they are all free apps. Be sure & delete in iTunes as well as on your phone. When prompted in iTunes, move all files to trash & empty your trash. You don't want any trace of them left.
