How do I change or delete my Alternate Apple ID?  @me or @icloud. I was using it as an alias but and I have someone sharing my iPad now and I need it to be gone.

You can't delete an iTunes account.
If you don't want to add a credit card (you should be able to remove it after entering it) and you are being prompted to review the account then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054
If not then you will need to create a new account, and use the instructions on this page when creating it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534 HT2534
Creating an account with 'none' :
computer's iTunes : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24321860
iPhone : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24700173
If you want to use the same email address then you will need to replace it on your existing account first e.g. by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and logging into it, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

  • How do I delete an alternate Apple ID?

    I logged into the Manage my Apple ID page on the Apple site and I see several email addresses associated with my Apple ID.  I also see an "alternate apple ID" and while I am able to delete or edit the email addresses, I am not able to edit or delete the alternate Apple ID.  How can I do this? 

    You are probably right, (Csound1) I'm over thinking.
    But so far seems Imp68, is right, you cannot change it.
    I have a University degree in COmputer science, and sometime I make it too complex, being a PC guy new to Mac world.
    So how do you disconnect the I-Cloud account? I tried to create a new one, but seems I would also have to create a new Apple ID as well.
    Is there something doable to transfer the i-tune purchases and I-cloud space paid fees for the year?
    Seems to be killing a mosquito with a hammer, but may be you are right, this is as simple as that...

  • TS5223 i have change my name and my icloud is still using the old account. how do i change it to my new apple ID on my iphone without deleting the backup already in icloud

    have change my name and my icloud is still using the old account. how do i change it to my new apple ID on my iphone without deleting the backup already in icloud

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, and your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, 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 iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished 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.

  • How to delete the Alternate Apple-ID?

    I want to delete my Alternate Apple-ID because of not using this E-Mail Address anymore.
    How to do this? It got imported when I created an iCloud Account years ago, now I want to create a new iCloud Account.

    Not sure what you mean by alternate Apple ID, but you can't delete an Apple ID, you can only choose to stop using it.
    If you mean you want to delete and alternate email address from your iCloud ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in with your iCloud ID, then in the "Name, ID and Email Preferences" section, click "Delete" next to the alternate email address you want to delete.

    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

  • ICloud is asking me for my old Apple ID which is with an email that no longer exists. How do I change it to my new Apple ID?

    iCloud is asking me for my old Apple ID which is with an email that no longer exists. How do I change it to my new Apple ID?

    If you renamed your iCloud ID and need to change it on your device, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

    Restore your phone using the last backup that you made. That should put everything back the way it was.

    How I can change my pay method y iTunes if I don't want to use my credit card?

    The iTunes Store sometimes requires it even if the card wouldn't be charged; if it actually gets charged and you're not trying to gift the songs, ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

  • In Pages when I go to FIND how can I change the highlight colour of the found word?  At the moment it is a very pale grey and not easily seen.

    In Pages when I go to FIND how can I change the highlight colour of the found word?  At the moment it is a very pale grey and not easily seen.

    Well, it might depend on the nationality of your keyboard, but on my US keyboard, the tilde ("squiggle") is above the TAB key; on a Mac, ⌘-TAB cycles through the active applications and ⌘-tilde cycles through the windows in the front application.
    When you do a Find, Pages selects an instance of your search text (the next one after the current selection, I think, but I didn't check that). It doesn't make the document window the front window, though. If you click in the window to bring it to the front, it moves the selection (or insertion point) to wherever you click unless you click on or above the ruler. Try clicking at the top of the document window after you do a find; say somewhere near the document name. Now you should see the highlighted selection (your search text). If you click back on the Find window, the selection will go grey again, unless you hold ⌘ down while clicking.
