How can I delete my first apple ID it interferes with apps I want to buy using my iCloud id

I recently had my macbook pro worked on at apple, with great success.  I was told I would be able to delete my first apple ID which is a me.com account
I now use I cloud and want the other to go away for good..  But it isn't as they said it would.  It interferes with purchases on my I-phone and I don't even remember the password.  Is it possible to delete it ? if so How ???

You cannot delete an Apple ID. You can just stop using it. You should change the iCloud Apple ID address you now are using in the device to the new one you wish to use. I suggest you tab Settings > General > Reset > Settings, then reconfigure your phone this time using your new Apple ID.

    How do I delete an old Apple ID and still update apps purchased when I was using it?

    One, you cannot delete an Apple ID, all you can do is stop using it and let it fade away.
    Two, apps are permanently tied to an aPple ID and can never be transferred to another.  You must use that same ID to update an app, or delete the app and repurchase/download under another ID.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can delete an existing account from your device and create a new one and start using it. But I'm not sure what you mean by transfer.

    How can I make my first generation AirPort Express work with Mountain Lion? I have a 13" MacBook Pro (non-retina).

    Hi guys, recently had the same issue. You require an older version of Airport Utility to configure the older Airport Express. It can be found here.

  • How can you delete an old apple id from your phone

    Although I have a new Apple ID, the old one keeps prompting for a password.  How can I delete the old one?

    Hi clairebrisvegas,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    Your Apple ID is used for several services through your iPhone. To replace the previous Apple ID you will need to sign out of it in a few different spots and sign in with the current Apple ID (depending on what Apple ID you choose to use for each individual service). The services you may need to sign out of old Apple ID and into new one could include iCloud, Messages, FaceTime, and iTunes & App Stores. You can see what Apple ID is currently signed in and sign out of it in the following areas: Settings > iCloud, Settings > Messages, Settings > FaceTime, and Settings > iTunes & App Store. The following article is a good resource that explains this process.

  • `created 2 Apple account, one with non existent E-mail address. How can i delete my fake Apple account?

    Hi,
    Did some non sense out of ignorance.Created 2 Apple ID account, one with non existent mail. It suddenly coming back to haunt me. Till now everything was ok, was dowlinding lots of apps, music... Now it suddenly swichted to the fake e-mail adress, i'm totally bloqued.
    How can i delete this second useless account?

    Hello,
    You don't need access to the email address to log in to the Apple ID and you can change the email if required.
    Assuming you don't need it for any services, as you can't actually delete an Apple ID, log in here (link) and remove all personal details from the page and then cease using that account. 
    regards

  • How can I turn my French apple account into Australian one to be able to buy a Iphoto book I've made?

    hi
    How can I turn my french apple account into an Australian one , to be able to buy a Iphoto book I 've created ?

    And you need to set the "Print Products Store" in the iPhoto Preferences "Advanced" to the country you are in. The credit card you will be using with your AppleID needs to be valid in the country your AppleID is registered to. Will you be staying permanently in Australia? Maybe it wuld be simpler to create a second AppleID just for the time of your stay there.

  • How can I delete the custom repeat option in the reminders app

    Hi,
    When I try to set a reminder to repeat every month the reminder app automatically sets a "custom repeat" of "every month that has 29 days in it". Where did this custom repeat option come from? I don't think I created it. How can I delete it?

    Hi Chris,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I am using the native iOS reminders app. I have tried closing the app and powering my phone off and on, but to no avail. I was under the impression that one can set custom reminders using siri? I have friend with a toddler who was playing with my phone. I figured maybe she set off Siri and a custom reminder was set by mistake?
