How can I unsync my iPhone from an iTunes account?

I just bought a new macbook pro and i have had a macbook air on my family's itunes account. i just created a new account on my new computer but it won't sync my phone because it is still synced to my family's account. how do i unsync it?

Not sure if there is a way to "un-sync" per-say... But you can factory reset your device, and then set it up with your new MB Air.
DOING A FACTORY RESET WILL WIPE ALL DATA ON YOUR PHONE!!! So make sure you have it backed up to your old computer first!
But before you do this, when you plug your Phone into your computer, I think iTunes should give you a choice to sync with your new computer. If this "dialog box" or "choice" doesn't pop up when you plug your Phone in, THEN do the factory reset.

    Change your password.

    She will be able to use any apps that are on her device, until she syncs with her own computer.

    how can i detach my iphone from my itunes (NOT from my apple ID)

    Hello Laurien123,
    Can you tell me a little more about your situation?  I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish.   You authorize your computer to sync or download iTunes; you associate your iPhone with your Apple ID, not with iTunes.
    Please reply if you can with a little more information, and I'll do what I can to help.
    Authorize your computer in iTunes - Apple Support

    Do I need to authorize my iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch?
    No. You don’t need to authorize your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but you do need to associate your iOS devices with your Apple ID. Your iOS devices don’t use your available authorizations.
    Have a great day!

    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.

  • How can I put my money from my iTunes account into an iTunes gift card

    I purchase an $20 iTunes card and put the money in my ITunes account and brought what I needed now I would like to put the rest of the money back into the card so I can give it to my friend. My question is how can I transfer the money from my account into the iTunes gift card

    You can't. Once any part of the balance has been spent, the remainder can't be put back onto the card or otherwise transferred to another person(aside from Apple itself) through any means.

  • 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.

  • How can i switch an ipod from my itunes account to my sisters?

    i am giving my ipod to my sister but i don't know how to remove the ipod from my itunes account and add it to my sisters new itunes account

    The easiest way to change the account you are using on your mobile device is to scroll down to the bottom of the iTunes Store or App Store on the device and tap the Apple ID button. Then:
    - To sign out, or to sign in to a different account, tap the Sign Out button.
    - To sign back in, tap the Sign In button, then tap either Use Existing Apple ID or Create New Apple ID, and follow the on-screen instructions from there.

  • How can I unsuscribe an Iphone from my Iclod account?

    My phone was stolen 2 weeks ago, I bought a new one and erase everything through the Icloud page, but today when I sync it, pictures from the guy who stole my phone were updated.
    I want to delete that device from my account because he might have all my info, how can I do that?
    Thanks

    You may want to go to www.icloud.com and completely wipe your phone as well. If you are seeing the photos that the lazy no good waste of human life is taking on your phone, then he obviously was intelligent enough to restore it so you should still be able to lock it, wipe it, or locate it. Good luck to you!

  • How can I unlock an iPhone 4 without iTunes account information?

    My daughter's iPhone 4 is registered on my Verizon account and I am the account manager.  When she got it she set it up through her own iTunes account. I have taken her phone from her as punishment and want to access the information on the phone without her knowing.  I entered the wrong unlock code too many times and it is now disabled and there is a message on the front that it must be connected to the iTunes account. How can I reset/unlock the phone while preserving the information that is currently on it?  I hunted and pecked through the Verizon site and can't find anything.  I thought since I am the account manager I could easily unlock it - - apparently not.

        Hi madisonsb,
    Just so you know, once the code has been put in incorrectly many times, to prevent unauthorized access, the phone will lock itself up and can only be restored by erasing the information and setting the phone back up. If there is a back up on iTunes it will restore everything back to the phone, but keep in mind this will also restore the old lock code used as well. So it's either erase everything and set it up as new, or erase everything and restore with the old lock code.
    Being an account manager gives you access to the Verizon Wireless account to make plan changes or upgrade phones, not gain access into information on a device. The information on a device is always considered private and we wouldn't even have access to it in any way, shape, or form.

  • How can I sync 2 iPhones w/ 1 iTunes account separately?

    I have 2 iPhones, 1 iTunes account (on one computer). I want the phones to sync separately - I don't want shared contacts, notes, calendars... nothing. I have separate playlists for music on the phones, which is working fine. Every time I sync contacts get screwd up or notes get deleted or iBooks or notes get copied from one phone to the other. I've tried many settings trying to stop this. I do NOT want a separate login for each phone.
    What are the right settings (or is the correct way) to sync 2 iPhones without copying or deleteing info from one or the other?

    Nothing gets copied from one iPhone to the other.
    Everything gets copied from iTunes/computer to iPhone.
    Select the iPhone iTunes, click the tabs across top and select what you want to sync.
    I do NOT want a separate login for each phone.
    Then you are not going to be able to always sync different data.
    Notes are notes. It's sync them or not.
    Calendars and contacts you can select specific groups and calendars though I would recommend using iCloud (not iTunes) to sync this.
