How do I delete a duplicated icloud
account from my iphone

If you mean you have two different icloud accounts, then I don't think you can delete one.  You can just change the account ID on your iphone to the other account.

    how can i delete my old icloud account from my iphone

    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.

  • How do I delete an Apple iCloud account from my iPhone without password, security questions, or email?

    For some reason, an old iD is stuck on my phone. My iPhone 4s is nearly filled with documents and data, to the point where I cannot take pictures, and I can't reset it without using this old iD. I don't know why this is now popping up instead of the one I am registered with. I gained access to the old email the iD is under, but none of the iTunes emails are coming in so I assume it is set up under a different email. For the security question of birthdays, I tried every household member's birthday, and none worked. I have tried the password we used on that account when it was active, along with every other possiblility. I don't know what to do anymore and I have very limited use of my phone if I don't get this sorted out and deleted from my phone.
    Thank you for any help!

    Not without password.

  • I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id.  Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id.  How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

    I want to update iCloud account with new apple id but don't know password for old apple id.  Plus can no longer receive email at old apple id.  How can I delete the current iCloud account on my iPhone if the previously stated conditions exist?

    If the old ID is yours, and if it 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, 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 do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info

    How do i delete an old iCloud account from phone when I forget my password and I'm not able to reset it because my security questions do not match?! Help!! Currently not able to update any apps or icloud info...

    If your device is signed into an old ID of yours that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
    If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going 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.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) 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 back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • How do I delete someone's icloud account from my ipad?

    This person set up my new ipad with his apple ID instead of letting me create my own, I somehow got rid of it but now I've updated to IOS 8 and for some reason his icloud account is still on my ipad, I can't sign out and use my ID because I have to turn off ''find my ipad'' and it wont let me do that without a password, I have really bad memories of this person and this is driving me insane because it's a constant reminder ,every 15 minutes or so icloud pops up and asks me to sign in with this account. Any help would be much appreciated, and no, there is no way I can get this person's password.

  • How do I disconnect an old icloud account from my iPhone 5?

    When I bought my iPhone, I did not have an icloud account so I used my sister's account. Now that I have an icloud account, I want to change the old one and use the new, but it shows me that the old account will be eliminated and I don't want to eliminate it; just disconnect it from my phone.
    How should I proceed?
    Thanks in advance.

    Settings > iCloud > Delete account
    It's only deleting the account from that device, not completely.

  • 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.

  • TS3988 How do I REMOVE an NONEXISTING iCloud account from my iPhone?

    A couple of years ago I got my first iPhone, installed iCloud and created an AppleID with the following e-mail [email protected]
    Since then a lot has changed including my internet service provider, I now have a NEW AppleID on [email protected]
    the iPhone however still insists on [email protected] WHICH NO LONGER EXISTS and there is no password for it.
    My FaceTime is happy logging in with the new account details BUT iCloud just refuses to accept anything but the OLD AppleID
    I can not change the AppleID because its grayed out.
    I can not delete the iClod Account and settings from the iPhone because it will ask me for the OLD password to disable the Find MyiPhone function (which i have already erased from iclaud.com....).
    It is pretty annoying to get all the message about iClod being unable to log in, especially since I don't even want to use iCloud any more.
    Just want to get RID OF this junk so I can use my phone for what it is intended to call and receive calls.lu
    Hope that someone has a solution.
    I have tried a number of suggestions from the web, like login on FaceTime and then try to delete the iCloud Account but NO GO. It just asks me for a password to an account that no longer exists.
    I would say it is a very bad solution, at least the DELETE Account on the Phone should work without any prompts!
    best regards,
    Alexander Berggren

    What do you mean by removing the account?
    An account is just a user neame and password with which you purchase content.
    You can go to settings and sign out of the account nd inot another.  This is covered in the manual.

  • I want to delete my icloud-account from my iphone 5 and then register again, because I want to change my email-address/account name. What would be the steps to follow? How do I make sure I do not lose any information stored on/in my iphone 5?

    I want to delete my icloud-account from my iphone 5 and then register again, because I want to change my email-address/account name. What would be the steps to follow? How do I make sure I do not lose any information stored on/in my iphone 5?

    You would have to delete the existing iCloud account and create a wholly new one - you cannot change the @icloud.com email address of the one you already have.  To make a new one, you will also need an new AppleID as any AppleID can only have one iCloud account associated with it.
    Deleting the account will not delete anything off your device (if prompted for things like contacts, choose to keep them).  You will have to sync everything anew with the new account as you cannot move your sync'd content, your old backups or anything else from one iCloud account to another.  You will have to set up sync again and let it sync to the new account, and then make new backups to the new account as well.
