How do I delete an old email account that's associated with my Apple account? When trying to activate my Apple account my old email keeps popping

How do I delete an old email account that's associated with my Apple ID? When trying to login on to my Apple account with my ipad2 the old email account is still tagged as the primary account.

OK that's what Ithought you were talking about.
You can't actually delete an old Apple ID. You just sign into the new ID to use that one. Your old ID must be popping up because you used it in the past to purchase content with it. You cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another Apple ID. You have to continue to use the old ID if you want to update content that was used to purchase with that ID.
Did you sign into your new account in the settings and you can't stay signed in?

I am trying to install an app. When I click install, my old gmail account shows and asks for my password etc but I have a new gmail account that is associated with my apple id. How can I get it to default to the new gmail?

I am trying to install an app in my iphone. When I click Install, my old gmail account comes up for verification and it asks for my password etc. I dont use this account anymore and have a new gmail account that is associated with my apple account. How can I get the new gmail to default when I am trying to install apps?

Did you create a NEW Apple ID or did you change the email address for your OLD Apple ID? This will affect how you update apps in the future.
Anyway, go to Settings/iTunes&App Stores, log out, then log in with the new ID.

HT5621 how do i change the email account that is associated with icloud?

I cannot access the email account that is associated with my icloud account because it has been hacked, and i cannot get back into it. Please helpme figure out how to change which email address is associated with icloud. Thank you

Problem resolved! Deleted the current account and signed in with the new one.

The vendor account is not associated with the file you are trying to open.Please try again.

Please help me to understand what is the problem with the set up of the program. I bought an ebook from an internet site to which my IP address was blocked (in country 1). My brother bought it on a computer in country 2 and wanted to download and send me the file so I can open it on my computer. He set up initial download without Adobe ID. Afterwards he downloaded the pdf and send it to me. I tried to upload it with my ADE reader but it didn't work without ID. My brother then deleted afterwards his ADE and installed it again, downloaded the ebook again but this time setting up an ID. He transferred me the file ,I used the same ID but then the following message appeared "The vendor account is not associated with the file you are trying to open. Please try again." . Can this be fixed somehow? I cannot open the URLLinks even as there is no connection from my IP , but I have the pdf file ( ebook) but I don't know how to set up the program.

Sorry Everyone this error message appeared in Digital Editions 4 used on a windows 8 laptop. Thanks Chris

How do I delete photos from my iPad that were synced with my old mac?

I understand that I have to delete synced photos by unchecking them in iTunes on the Mac I synced the iPad with, but what do I do when I have a new mac that doesn't have the same photos as the iPad? How do I delete them then?

How do I delete photos from an IPad that was synced with a Macbook?

Hope someone on here can help!
We own both a Macbook and an IPad. When we linked them, the IPad brought over ALL (like, around 2000) photos from the Macbook. I would like to delete these from the IPad, but it won't let me.
Any suggestions on what I need to do?
Thanks!

I have an old work apple ID that is associated with my App Store . I have created new apple ids and reset in settings but whenI access the App Store it still defaults to my old work apple ID. I can't seem to get passed this, any ideas?

I have an old work e mail address that was a primary apple id. The App Store uses this as a default. I have created a new apple ID and changed this in the settings but the App Store still defaults to the old address. How can I get change this as I cannot update anything at this stage. I cannot create a new password against the ole apple ID as the e mail is no longer valid, old work e mail

Hi tried the various options but ended up deleting the apps associated with the old Appleid and then accessing them from the App Store and reloading. They automatically asked for the new Appleid and password.

HT204053 How do I change the verified email address that is associated with iMessage?

I verified the wrong email address when I set up my iMessage on my iPod touch and now it won't let me change it. I can't even click on it. It's similar to how the number looks if you have an iPhone and you go to settings, iMessage, and send a receive. It's like the number has a check by it but you can't click on it. That's how the email looks on my iPod. But I need it to be changed.

When there is only one email address entered on iPods and iPads the address is grayed out. Go to Settings/Messages/Send & Receieve and tap the Add Another Email..., add the correct email address and you should then be able to delete the incorrect address.

How to get rid of old Apple ID when trying to activate new iPad thru restore from iCloud?

Making me crazy: after I select ipad backup from choose backup screen, the next screen asks me for itunes password again, but it shows long expired Apple ID that is not an email address. Haven't seen this for a year or more. My iCloud and Apple ID's all show me updated. Can't figure out how to get past this screen. Help!! Please!!

is there any other solution????
Erasing the iPhone is the solution; there are at least two ways to do that, though.
The second one is, go to icloud.com and login with your Apple ID and password. Go to "Find My iPhone" and click "Devices." From there you'll be able to erase the iPhone. All the magic will happen as soon as the iPhone has internet access.

How do I delete photos on my iPad that were added with the SD card adaptor?

I added photos to my iPad using the SD Card Adaptor over a year ago. They now appear in the 'Photos' tab on the iPad. They are not in Photo Stream and they do not appear in Albums under Camera Roll or Last Import. I have connected my iPad to the PC and opened the DCIM folder and they are not there at all.
I have Googled this question repeatedly and can not find an answer. I have viewed many YouTube tutorials that I thought would give me the right answer and... nope.
Can anyone please help?

Thanks Clyde. But the photos do not show up in iTunes either!
Well, let's just say, that I can't see them there! All I see in iTunes under Photos is the option to Sync photos.

I recently updated my primary email address associated with my Apple ID account.
Now when I go to App store on my iPad it still tries to login to the App store using the old email address I had associated with the account, and naturally my password doesn't work. I can't figure out how to tell my iPad to login using the updated email address.
So in effect I'm locked out of the app store and I currently have 26 updates waiting.
I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting my IPad to iCloud with no luck.. However I cloud happens to show the correct/updated email address.
Does anyone know how to resolve this?
Thanks

Did you change the email for the Apple ID or did you create a new Apple ID? A new Apple ID cannot be used with content that was bought using a different Apple ID.
