How do I delete an old g mail account

Had a previous BB and got a new Curve9320. Used Desktop software to back up and restore from old to new phone. The old phone has been wiped and returned to my former employer BUT my new has 2 personal email accounts but also a icon for my former work g mail. For the moment I have "hidden" the icon but I really would like to delete any reference to the email account from my new phone. How do I do that?

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
As long as your work was not BES, then this will be pretty straight forward:
Launch the EMail Setup Wizard (wherever it is based on your BB OS)
Go into Internet/Personal Accounts
When your integrated accounts are listed, select the one and delete it
On the other hand, if your work was BES, then doing the full backup/restore has now placed the same BES restrictions (IT Policy) that your old BB had onto your personal one...you can verify that via this:
KB30076 How to check for an IT Policy on a BlackBerry smartphone
If that's the case, then you'll need to start over to remove that:
Make sure you still have all you need backed up
Conduct the ResetToFactory
KB31291 How to reset a BlackBerry smartphone to factory settings using BlackBerry Desktop Software
Now restore from the backup again, but this time do a selective restore of only those databases you need (e.g., contacts, calendar, etc.), especially avoiding any databases that have to do with Enterprise, IT Policy, etc.
Good luck!

  • How do I delete an old e-mail account from my Apple ID?

    When I purchased my iPad, I registered with an old y-mail account and a backup e-mail to my girlfriend's e-mail address, Now I have a g-mail account and need to delete the y-mail account and change the backup e-mail account. I cannot find information that will help me accomplish this.

    Try here...
    I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
    Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
    Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed.  If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.

  • How do you delete an old e-mail account?

    I have some apps on my mini IPad air that were purchased using an old e-mail account, which I have attempted to delete (thought I was successful); however, when I try to update specific apps, it will only let me log in using that old e-mail address. 

    Did you create a new separate account or did you just change your Apple ID.
    Purchases are permanently linked to the Apple ID that made them. If you created a new ID and these apps were purchased with your old Apple ID then you will not be able to update them without entering the password for that account.
    If you do not remember it then you will need to delete those apps and redownload/purchase them with your new Apple ID.

  • How do I delete a corporate e-mail account?

    How do I delete a corporate e-mail account?

    What phone do you have?  Is it a company phone?  If it is, you may not be able to delete the account.
    If it is your own phone, and you no longer need the company email, it should be a matter of finding the account list for the phone (Settings, Accounts - or Settings, Email - knowing which phone you have will help up give you more specific steps) and removing, deactivating, deleting the account.
    If it's the Google account that is the backup and app connection for the phone, you may lose much of the functionality until you set up an alternate Gmail address/account.

    how do I delete my mobileme e-mail account?

    Hey this is the problem "However it will continue to be accessible at http://icloud.com"
    And every now and then I would need to check it
    I ended up ringing them up earlier and the person I spoke to said he couldn't find a solution to delete it.
    I've decided I'm going to keep it and forward e-mails from Outlook to iCloud as I like iClouds other features such as notes, reminders, calendars, work etc...
    This is allowed, right? (forwarding)

  • How can I delete my old app store account from update on my IMac

    How can I delete my old app store account from update on my IMac

    All items that you download from the iTunes store are tied to the account that downloaded them, so only that account can download updates to its apps.
    If you are referring to apps from the Mac App Store then you will be better off asking in the Using Mac App Store forum (this is the iTunes Store forum).

  • Deleting an old e-mail account

    I want to delete an old e-mail account from my iMac. Unfortunately, the only option I can find is to check or uncheck the "enable this account" box. Any way to completely delete an e-mail account from the mailboxes? Thanks!

    Open Mail preferences and click on the Accounts icon in the toolbar. Select the account you want to delete in the list and click on the [-] button at the bottom of the list. Note that all the mail you have in that account will also be deleted. If you want to preserve any of it then create a new folder in your active mail account and then move all the mail from the old account into the new folder. Then delete the old account.

  • How can i delete my old apple id account?

    please someone can tell me,how delete my old apple id account?

    You cannot delete an Apple ID; just remove any/all personal information and it'll fade into obscurity. Remember that anything you purchased at the app store will need that Apple ID and password to be updated.

  • How can I delete an old exchange email account

    I have a new iPad Air. I restored it from a backup of my old iPad 3. My work exchange email account came with it but does not work. When I followed the procedures my work support provided I found a new email account was created with the same name.  I tried to delete the old exchange account but there is no DELETE option.  I checked and I have no restrictions enabled.  I was able to make the old exchange account inactive by turning off mail/contacts/calendar/reminders.
    Please advise on how to delete this account.
    Thanks in advance

    Brendan, thanks for your reply.  Unfortunately neither of these helped.  There are no checkboxes ticked for Safari (and I only use Firefox, generally) and I am able to sign in after signing off.  But when I go to sign in here I get the [email protected] filled in as in the attached.  And I have been using [email protected] as my defsult email and also my Apple ID user name since before there was an iCloud.  So what now?

  • How do I change an old e-mail account

    How do I change an old id on movie????

    Howdy cvance01,
    When you talk about an old ID I think of an Apple ID, like you have a movie purchased with an outdated Apple ID (email).
    If an email (Apple ID) goes out of date you can generally rename it to your new email provided it isn't already in use.
    Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
    If the new email has already been used, see 
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs. 
    Hope that's it.

  • How do i delete my old apple id account?

    i dont need it and dont want it how do i delete it? thanks.

    You can't currently delete iTunes accounts - all you can do is remove any personal info from it and stop using it.
    Have you downloaded any content with it ? If you have and you want to be able to use that content in the future, then you'll need to remember the account's id and password in case you ever want to authorise it on another computer

  • How can I delete an old Apple ID account?

    Every time I have to enter my Apple ID, on the Apple site or on iTunes, it is auto-filled with an old, never-used Apple ID email name and password.  I have to use the delete key to XXX-out both and then reenter my current Apple ID.  Any suggestions on how to get rid of the old one?  I don't care if I lose some songs bought under the old one  Worth it..

  • HT201342 Deleting an @iCloud e-mail account

    How do I delete an @iCloud e-mail account from my iCloud account.  My son (7) created an iCloud account and it has become the master e-mail for all of our iCloud linked devices.

    You can create an alias email address, which is not a separate account but will receive email in your current iCloud inbox (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a), but as you may have read, you cannot change the master email address short of creating a new iCloud account.
