Simply reset your Apple ID password by going to iforgot.apple.com
This will reset your iMesasge too.
I've tried all other methods and this is the only way that works.

    Turn off imessage in settings/messages, turn off Facetime in settings/facetime, delete the cloud account in settings/icloud and log out of your Apple ID in settings/itunes and app store.

  • How can I remove an old phone number from iMessage

    I have an old iphone 3GS that has been upgraded to IOS5 and I am letting my son use.  He is loving the iMessage, however there is one problem - the phone number that used to be associated with that 3GS is still associated with the iMessage settings and so whenever I iMessage my wife at that phone number (or anyone else for that matter), he also gets the message.
    I have added in his email in the "You can be reached for messages at:" settings option, but I cannot delete the phone number.  Any idea how I can get the phone number removed from the iMessage settings?  I want him to be able to send / receive iMessages via his email address - not the phone number that belongs to my wife.
    I did try removing the sim from the phone, but that didn't work.
    Thanks

  • How can I remove my old phone number from my iPhone?

    I want to sell my old iPhone 5 (Sprint), and I want to get everything off of it. Obviously I'd restore it and remove everything first, but how do I get the 'My number' to change from my current phone number (which was ported to T Mobile and is with a newer phone now) to something else/removed? I remember I had the same problem a few years ago with an android phone, and I kept getting texts from my number on it (both phones at the same time), I obviously don't want something like this to happen again, especially if I sell it.
    Thanks in advance

  • How do I remove an old phone number from my macbook imessage. My apple ID does not show the number anymore but I cannot remove it from the imessage accounts. Its driving me mad !

  • How can I remove my old apple id from iTunes and put the new one in?

    Morning all, how can I remove my old apple Id from my I tunes account and replace it with the new apple ID, ?
    Many thanks
    Kimber. Lee

    Sign out of iTunes and sign in with the new ID. On your computer, under on of the iTunes menus, on your iPad Settings > iTunes and App Stores and tap on the Apple ID.
    Note that all apps downloaded under the previous ID are locked to that ID, and you will have to sign back onto it for any updates.

  • HT5538 How do I completely remove my old phone number from iMessage?

    I haven't had service on my iPhone for over a year now, but a couple days ago I got a text through iMessage from someone thinking I am their friend "Mark". They're texting my old phone number and it is going to their friend Mark's phone (as he now has my old number) but some of them also go to me.
    I've tried going to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and the phone number is disabled (greyed out). I can uncheck the emails linked to my account but I am unable to uncheck the phone number.
    Here's a screenshot (number blocked to protect the privacy of the person that now has it):
    I tried following the instructions under "How to unlink a phone number" in this Apple support article but the phone number still didn't go away from the iMessage "Send & Receive" list even after I signed out of my Apple ID.
    This seems like a bug because why in the world would texts normally still come to my phone sometimes (via iMessage) when someone texts my old phone number if I haven't even paid in over a year.
    BTW, when I had service, my carrier was AT&T.

    1. Get hold of your old iPhone and switch iMessage off in Settings > Messages
    2. Un-register your old device: https://supportprofile.apple.com
    3. Change your current Apple ID password.
    4. Switch OFF your iMessage and switch back ON after a few minutes.

  • How can I remove my old phone?

    I recently got a new Iphone 4 and wonder how I can remove the profile for the 3Gs in Itunes? It still shows up in such things as Find my Iphone and such.

    If you are sure you won't need the old iPhone's backup, you can delete it using iTunes > Preferences > Devices.
    To remove the old iPhone from MobileMe's Find My Phone, see these instructions: http://help.apple.com/mobileme/interface/index.html?lang=en#mmfc0eeddd

  • How can I remove my old iCloud account from my iPhone 4?

    I recently changed my icloud account email on my mac, but when I try to delete it on my iphone 4, I need to enter a password. But, the icloud account email is still set to my old one, so i can't delete it because there's no longer any matching email and password because I changed it on my mac!! It's driving me crazy! PLEASE HELP

    Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I swapped my iphone from apple store india and my imei of iphone changed and i have lost the box and bill of phone , how can i get my old imei number.

    I swapped my iphone from apple store india and my imei of iphone changed and i have lost the box and bill of phone , how can i get my old imei number.

    Of course it changed. A phone's IMEI number is unique to each phone. The IMEI number for a phone does not transfer to another phone.
    Since your iPhone was exchanged under warranty without having the box and bill for the original purchase, you don't need it now either. The exchange under warranty remains under the warranty for the original purchase.

  • How can I remove an old version of Lightroom ? I use Mountain Lion on Mac.

    Hello,
    I upgrade from Lightroom 3 to Lightroom 5. There was no problem. My pictures have been imported in Lightroom 5. But Lightroom 3 was not removed from my computer. How can I remove this old version in a good way ?
    I use Mountain Lion on Mac.
    Thanks

    I'm not a Mac user. But you remove Lightroom just like you would remove any other application from your system. If you purchased Lightroom 5 as an upgrade it probably depended on knowing the serial number of your Lightroom 3. I suggest that you store that Lightroom 3 serial number somewhere you'll remember because it will be needed if/when you decide to upgrade to a newer version of Lightroom.
    And, just to clarify, there is no interdependence between your Lightroom 5 and Lightroom 3. They are separate, independent applications.

  • How can I remove my old e-mail I no longer use  also it does not have my birth date correct how can I change it?

    How can I remove an old e-mail that I am no longer using?
    How can I correct my birthdate?

    If you have an email account that you want to delete, go to Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Email Account>Delete account.
    If you have on old Apple ID that keeps popping up when you update apps, that old ID will always be tied to those apps and you must continue to use that ID and password when you update those apps.
    If you want to completely sign out of that old account, and nothing on your iPad is still tied to it, go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores. Tap on the old ID and sign out. Then sign in with the new one
    For the incorrect birthday go to here.
