How do I delete an apple ID I no longer use? Sometimes when i try to buy an ap, this old ID pops up and if course there us nI password for it and I cannot buy the ap. help.

I am trying to install an app and I am asked to type in a password for an Apple ID I no longer use.  How can I get rid of this ID? I changed it on Manage My Apple ID a long time ago.  I can't figure out where this is coming from.

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

It should be Noted that anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID.

    If you are in a country where music can be redownloaded then it should show in the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage - that it where you can redownload items (as long as they remain in the store).

    DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW I CANT DELETE MY APPLE ID I JUST GOT A NEW AND NO LONGER NEED THE OLD 1 HELP PLEASE

    As far as I know they can't be deleted, just remove any personal info from it (credit card details etc) and stop using it.
    If you downloaded any content via it then you will need to remember it and it's password, as content is tied to the account that bought/downloaded it, so if you move to a new computer you'll need to authorise the account on it if you want to use any of its content there (or if you bought apps with it you'll only be able to download updates to them via that account)

    have an ipod and then got the wife an iphone4. all passwords are screwed up. she can not access playstore cuz she doesn't have password. i can not get find any help on how to get or update a password for the ipod. and then get her a separate password for her iphone. we need to save her photos, music, etc to ? icloud and the phone stuff to verizon cloud? so when she gets her new Iphone6 she can have all her "stuff" back on the new phone. hope this makes sense. please offer suggestions here or at [email protected] thanks for your help!

    Oh no! I'm sorry to see there's a lot of confusion here and data shared, x-rayDon. We can definitely work to fix. This happens when two devices share the same Apple ID, so she will need to reset hers. She can do so by assessing this link Apple - My Apple ID. You will need to decide who will keep the account if want separate Apple IDs since purchases cannot be shared unless you do Family Sharing.

    My dad and I have shared an iTunes account for years and I just created a new apple id but I have no Idea how to get all those purchases to this new account. Help please?

    The old Apple ID (presumably your dads) owns those songs and your new Apple ID does not.  However, your dad can authorize your iD to use the songs by going to Store > Authorize This Computer from your iTunes menu and entering his Apple ID and password.

    A family member has given me her iPhone. How do I delete her Apple ID and replace it with my own ?

    Any Apps that have been downloaded with her Apple ID will remain Tied to that ID...
    You should consider doing a Restore as New and start over with your ID...
    Connect the Device to the iTunes library on your Computer, click on the Device tab that appears in iTunes and click Restore.

    How do I delete an email address associated with an apple id? And how do I deleted an apple id account?

    Right, if the Apple ID is already set up, then you cannot change it to None until you put a credit card on the account.
    If you set up a brand new Apple ID by first downloading a Free app, and then setting up the ID as a part of that process, then it can be None.
    Here's the support article with the info on how to do it either way:
    Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?

  • I bought Napoleon Total War from iTunes on 13 July. It downloaded properly and appeared on my iMac. Now, four days later I cannot find the application on 'Applications' or anywhere else on the computer, even  with the help of Spotlight. Help.

    I bought Napoleon Total War from iTunes on 13 July for £20.99. It downloaded properly and appeared on my iMac. Now, four days later I cannot find the application on 'Applications' or anywhere else on the computer, even  with the help of Spotlight. Help.

    A refund may not be possible since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:

    It's possible they'll make an exception for you.
    Good luck.

    If you don't want ANY one at Apple knowing your email address you could try this:
    Go to http://myinfo.apple.com/ and where your email address is listed just replace it with a made-up one like "[email protected]"

  • 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?

    I am not able to see toolbars, when I open a new window that window is not visible, if I open from bookmarks and there is music playing I hear it but canNOT SEE the websites. I was able to get window open from the help "window" and open sites from there just not from new: window tab or bookmarks those stay invisible? I tried the help suggestions, safemode,etc.

    Hi CMorenoOT,
    This prompt is usually displayed when your Apple ID needs to be configured for the iTunes Store. You'll want to run through the additional steps to setup your country, and payment information.

    Tip: If you are trying to create an account using an existing Apple ID, like your iCloud email address, you will receive a prompt telling you that your email address is already an Apple ID. Simply tap Continue, and then tap Use Existing Account on the following screen.
    - Next, you'll be required to enter your billing information. To choose a different Credit Card type, tap one of the available options, and then tap Done. You will not be charged until you make a purchase.
    - Once you've filled out all of the fields for your billing information, tap Next.
