How can I remove safari data from shared iCloud account?

Before iOS 8 and family sharing I was using a single iCloud account shared among several Apple devices in my household.  Now that we are all using our own separate Apple Accounts I want to delete shared data from other devices that were using my iCloud account.  For example, my wife and I both have data synched with iCloud (the same account) for Safari.  Now that her phone has been switched over to her own AppleID, I want to purge the data stored in my icloud account from her device.  When I open Safari on my phone, I can see a list at the bottom of tabs that my wife had open on her phone at one time in the past.  That list will never get updated now that she is using her own account.  So how do I purge old data from other devices off my iCloud account? 

If she's on a different account now, Safari data from the previous account should no longer be on her device.  iCloud tabs, on the other hand, will persist from a device that is no longer sharing the account for 14 days, after which they are automatically cleared.  (This is coming from iCloud, not from her device.)  You might try waiting a couple of weeks and see if they aren't automatically removed.
If you're still concerned, you could always ask her to go to Settings>Safari and tap Clear History and Website Data.  This won't clear her iCloud tabs from your device though; you'll have to wait for that.

  • How can I remove a device from my iCloud/Apple ID?

    Hi,
    I merged my dad's iphone to my Apple ID a while back because he wants to buy an app and I have some credit left over so I let him used my ID on his device. Apparently, all my contacts, pictures from photo stream, and ical are now also in his device. And all his contacts, pictures, and ical are on mines. How can I remove his device from my icloud and Apple ID WITHOUT deleting anything? Like I just don't want him to get anymore of my reminders and contacts, and pictures? Because I'm afraid taht if I remove his iphone on my icloud, all the pictures/contacts/ical that he took and went to my device too will be deleted because those are some important pictures/contacts/ical?
    I tried to manually delete some of my dad's contacts that was shared on my phone, it turns out that it got deleted on his phone as well and vice versa. How can I just completely cut him off of my icloud and ID without losing any of my and his contacts/pics/etc?

    If you enabled Find my iPhone then you should use that. If not, I'm afraid you're out of luck for finding it. 
    To manage your devices, go to Your Account in iTunes.

  • HT204053 how do i remove photo's from my icloud account

    how do i remove photo's from my icloud account

    If you mean from photo stream, open your My Photo Stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to delete, tap Delete.  This deletes them from photo stream and from any devices syncing with your photo stream.
    If you want to delete them all, you can go to icloud.com, sign into your iCloud account, click on your name at the top, click on Advanced, then tap Reset Photo Stream.

  • How can I remove a device from the iCloud?

    I upgraded my iPad, replacing the old one, the new one does not sync with iCloud Drive, in other words my iPhone 6 used to sync data with the previous iPad.
    I have already checked the iCloud login and made sure iCloud drive is on on both devices and made sure the app in question is also on on both devices.
    I believe the reason is because now my iCloud account shows two iPads, the old and the new one.
    How can I delete the old iPad from my iCloud account?

    After logging into iCloud, you can select devices, and then remove the old device. Have you gone on the old device and disabled iCloud Drive, or signed out of iCloud on the old iPad. That would be the easiest I believe.

  • How do I remove a device from my iCloud account?

    Hi, my daughters iphone is connected to my icloud account.
    How do I remove her device from that account?
    Thanks.

    If you mean that she is sharing your iCloud account and you want to migrate her phone to a separate account, start by saving any photo stream photos she wants to keep on her phone to her camera roll (unless already there) by opening her my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward pointing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll.  If she is syncing notes with iCloud, you will need to open each one and email them to her so she can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in her new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from her phone, not from iCloud; your device will not be effected by this), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload her data.
    Once your devices are on different accounts you can each go to icloud.com from your computer and delete the other person's data from your account.

  • How can I change a calendar from an iCloud account to another account?

    I am trying to move a calender from a icloud account to another icloud account, how can I do that?
    Thank you

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Create a new empty calendar from the iCal file menu, select which account you want to create it in.
    To copy a calendar ctrl-click on it from the menu that appears when you select the calendar button (top left corner of iCal) and choose export (export it to your desktop for ease)
    Double click the exported file and choose the new empty calendar to import them into.
    Ctrl-click on the original calendar from the menu that appears when you select the calendar button and choose delete.

  • How can I remove 300 groups from my iCloud Contacts?

    My OS X Address Book started out with about 10 groups, but now iCloud.com has about 300 groups.
    The replication arose because of a bug in how iCloud handles a mixture of Address Book Cards with both OS X and Windows line terminated Notes (LF vs. CRLF - it helps if you once used a typewriter).
    I figured out how to convert Address Book to all LF terminated line feeds and I was able to get iCloud.com working on a different account, but my core account is stuck with 300 groups (some replicated 50 times).
    I know how to delete all Cards/Contacts in iCloud.com Contacts, but, unfortunately that doesn't remove Groups. (Groups have an interesting behavior in iCloud, almost as though Apple has a special plan for them.)
    I can delete Groups one at a time on iCloud.com, but that's tedious. Unfortunately deleting them on Address Book, and trusting in sync to clear up iCloud.com, is equally tedious.
    Has anyone heard of a way to delete all Groups on iCloud or Address Book 6? Perhaps an AppleScript?
    Has anyone heard of Apple resetting a corrupt iCloud account to clear out bad data? (I have a clean version of Address Book I can use to restart -- that, by the way, is harder than you'd think. Again because Groups are special).
    Advice appreciated. If I get some free time I might take may laptop by the Genius bar and see what they say...

    I figured this out. In this case I didn't care about my Contacts, I had them elsewhere. My problem was my iCloud acount was "poisoned" with massive replication of 'Groups'. Even after I deleted all the Contacts I still had hundreds of Groups to get rid of. Manual deletion was too tedious.
    The answer was a simple AppleScript (I'm on ML on the machine i ran this on, so it's "contacts" rather than Address Book:
    tell application "Contacts"
              repeat 50 times
                        set theGroup to group "MyGroupName"
      delete theGroup
              end repeat
    save
    end tell
    Since I had the same Group Names replicated about 100 times each, I only had to run this about 10 times to clear them all out. When I got to smaller numbers I had to drop the repeat count. I changed the Group name as I went.
    Took me about five minutes.
    I'm sure an AppleScripter could turn this into a general script for removing all groups all at once. Or could get very clever, and only remove groups that had no contacts (so one could salvage the group/contact relationships).
    I didn't need that. My problem has been fixed.
    I think sync works a LOT better in ML than Lion btw. iCloud updated very quickly.

  • How can I remove an app from my iTunes account?

    I have several apps that I purchasesd or added to my account that I know I will never use again. How can I delete these from my iTunes account?

    Hi Annaoxie,
    If you no longer wish to see certain Apps would hiding the Apps work for you?
    Hide and unhide purchases in the Mac App Store - Apple Support
    If you hide an item you purchased in the Mac App Store, you won't get update notifications for it, and you won't see it on your Purchases page. If you're using Family Sharing, hidden items will also be hidden from your family members.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

  • HT1541 How can i remove 57 cents from my itunes account

    Hi,
    I have .57 cent left over from a gift card and want to change my location, but i cant because of my balance!!!!!

    If you want to change your country then you can try donating it to the Superstorm Sandy relief fund (bottom right of this page). Otherwise you can try contacting iTunes support and ask if they can remove the balance from your account :http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • How can i remove my email from my facetime account?

    I have my phone number and my email logged onto my FaceTime account but I want to remove my email off of it. Its says cannot remove this email. What do I do??

    Changing the password would only block them from accessing the iCloud information.  They would still have access to the local copy on thier phone.  To delete the local information, you would need to go to Settings>iCloud on the phone, tap Delete Account, then choose Delete from My iPhone.  (This only deletes the iCloud account and data from the phone, not from iCloud.)  This, obviously, must be done during the exit process as it requires access to the phone.

  • TS4001 How can I share Safari bookmarks between two iCloud accounts using IOS 7 and Mavericks?

    Before iOS 7 and Mavericks, we were able to share Safari bookmarks between all of our devices.  My wife had the primary iCloud account which was setup to share bookmarks, contacts, calendars and reminders.  A secondary iCloud account was setup on my phone for only my email.  Each phone had our private email accounts segregated and we shared all the bookmarks, contacts, calendars and reminders.  When I saved a bookmark on my phone, I could see it later on our iMac or iPad.  Now only my wife can sync bookmarks between her phone and the iMac or iPad.  This *****!!  This worked beautifully before we upgraded to the latest versions of OS & iOS.  Is there a work around or a new way to set things up?  I don't want to be stuck reading Safari on my phone when I have a 24" iMac sitting in the living room.  I don't want to see all of my wife's email on my phone either.  Do we need three iCloud accounts now?  One main for sharing and two separate accounts for only email?  Need help!  Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

    David,
    Thanks for the reply.  That's how I set it up originally.  Although the new iOS 7 update lost some functionality.  I found the following on the TUAW website.  The Safari Bookmarks and Find My Phone options have been removed from the secondary iCloud accounts options.  This is the problem.  Everything worked great before we updated.  I guess "new way" consolidates the iCloud accounts better with Maverick?  Now I will have extra documents on my phone that I don't need.  We will both have to share the same iCloud storage and backup space too.  Have to try it out and see how it works. Thanks.

  • How do I remove ONE device from an iCloud account to a new one?

    I am moving to college this fall, and want to separate myself and my apple devices (iPad 2 and iPhone 4s) from my family's apple ID. For a few years we've all shared a single ID for purchases of apps and music, as well as syncing our calendar events on our iPads. I just recently got an iPhone, and it bothers me that, having set it up under the same iCloud account, the contact list between me and my mom's phone is the same. I don't need all of her work contacts on my phone, nor does she need all of my friends on her phone.
    I've been cautious, because I always knew I would create a separate account eventually - and I know purchases are not transferable. I haven't purchased any music on the iTunes store, and with the exception of two or three $.99 apps I've chosen free apps on my iPad and iPhone. I've created my own apple ID now, but what I want to do is change my devices from our family's iCloud account to my OWN...I'm not sure how to do this exactly.
    I see a setting in the devices under Settings>iCloud that says "Delete Account" ....but I hesitate to press that - will it only delete the account on THIS device? Or does it remove the account entirely from all associated devices??
    Thanks for your help!

    Winston is correct, and that is exactly what you should do. This will allow you to sign in to your own Apple ID for iCloud.
    There's a couple other places you will want to do the same thing:
    -iTunes Store: Settings > Store > Tap on the Apple ID and chose Sign Out.
    And possibly:
    -iMessage: Settings > Messages > Receive At
    -Facetime: Settings > Facetime
