How do I delete an apple account without knowing the password?

My daughter has another persons apple ID account on her phone and we cannot contact the other person to obtain the password to remove their Apple ID on the phone.  Is there any way we can delete/remove this account from her phone without the password?  Any help would be very much appreciated.  Thank you.

If you mean the iPhone is logged into the AppStore or iTunes under
another account, just sign out and then sign back in with your daughter's
ID.
If you mean the iPhone will not allow any access because it is locked to someone else's
ID, that is a security feature of iOS 7. You must have the other person remove
their account or provide their ID info.

  • How to delete disabled icloud account without knowing the password/email

    Hi
    i just got a pre-used iphone 5S. It has a disabled icloud account. i tried to delete it but it asks me about the password.
    i cant reset the account cause i don't know the email for verification.
    also i can't restore using itunes because it asks to turn off find my iphone feature. and i can't turn it off because the account is disabled
    how can I restore the iphone in this case?

    You can't. There isn't a way to bypass Activation Lock: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13695 Your only option is to return the phone if possible. If not, you have a useless device.

    how can i delete my icloud account but not the password to turn off the find my phone setting

    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime 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 iPad 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 using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPad 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 to delete icloud account from pre owner without knowing the password?

    II'm in the same situation. Purchased a refurbished IPhone 5. I had to do a factory reset and when I reset it again, itunes tells me that the phone is linked to someone else. Called the company I bought the phone from and they say iTunes can do a master reset to link my iTunes account to the phone. Have any of you heard of this being possible?

  • How do you reset an ipad mini without knowing the password?

    I have just recently changed my password, but know i have forgot the new one. How do you reset the ipad without knowing the password?

    If you mean the passcode to unlock the iPad then you will need to connect it to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode in order to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If you do it via a different computer then :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

    How do you unlock a ipod touch 4th generation without knowing the password?

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • How can i unlock an apple id without knowing the emailaddres?

    I bought an ipad from someone who has forgotten his email adres. He doesn't react at all to me.
    Now i have the problem that i can't go in my ipad.
    Because i need to have his icloud acces to turn of ''find my ipad''
    How can i turn his Apple ID into mine without using his account?

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it. If the person you bought it from refuses to assist you can bet that person obtained the iPad illegally.

  • HT204053 How do I get into my Icloud account without knowing the password ?

    I reset my phone and i don't remebemer my icloud password and every time i try and change it i never get an email saying reset

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you.

    you can´t delete an icloud account without using the password.
    if you can confirm that your iphone is not locked to icloud device activation with this AppleID your are not aware and you have no access for - you can attempt to "erase all settings and content" on your iphone, to remove the icloud account from your iphone. all your data will be erased and iphone is set to factory settings

  • How can I delete my Apple account

    Par for the course with so many companies - "Delete My Account" is virtually impossible to find. How can I delete my Apple account? I don't want yet another account that people can hack and buy stuff fraudulently. Thanks. But really, these companies should be forced to let people know how they can delete accounts if&when they want to.

    I wholeheartedly agree. It seems rather pedestrian given that *supposedly* lesser sites/brands allow 'opting out gracefully' at any time - most with the ability to scrub everything clean and start again.
    It's annoying enough that Apple fail to contribute much practical help here, but to obfuscate the fact it's also impossible to leave is rather unbecoming to say the least - just see the number of questions on account deletion etc.
    So in short then: spending 1000s of $£¥€ or whatever on the 'best tech' on the planet and still no ability to do a basic account closure (or even a trace of Blu-Ray support even)...
    Nevermind. Clearly Apple feel that life in "The Village" is just so great that who in their right mind would want to go.
    Now repeat after me: "YOU ARE NOT A PERSON - YOU ARE NUMBER SIX!!"
    P.S. I wonder what the UK ICO would have to say about this?

  • HT1918 How can I delete my apple account?

    How can I delete my apple account?
    I need to use the email adress in another account but I always recieve the massage that thsi mail has been used for another account verification
    I check in pass recovery but there wasn't any account name by this ID.
    so I need to remove the whole account form Apple acounts.

    You can not delete an Apple account. You will have to use a different email address to setup a new account if they are in conflict with each other.

    Chrystal Kitty the instructions/link provided by roaminggnome
      allows you to creast a new ID without a credid card or gift card so you can download free app.

    So, if you mean to download a free app, you need a form of payment. There is no way to do so without a credit or gift card.
