  • How to delete someone else's iCloud account on your iPhone without password?

    I purchased my old iPhone 4 off a friend when I lost my phone at the time. All of my music and photos on that phone were under her iCloud account.
    Now that I have just got a new iPhone 6, when I backed up all of my photos, music etc. onto iTunes and synced up my new phone, it transferred her iCloud account to my new phone. She does not remember her password, and it will not let me delete this account without the password. I have spent hours searching the internet for a solution but have had no luck. Surely someone else has had this happen to them in the past.
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Hello megneth,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    In order to get an iCloud account signed out of your iPhone, you will need to have the previous owner sign out with their Apple ID login information.  If they do not remember their Apple ID password, then they can reset it by following the directions in the article below.

  • How do I delete someone else's iCloud account?

    We bought the iPad (2012) and my partner didn't like it so she gave it to me. She had already signed into and set up the iCloud, however, before handing it over and I am trying to figure out how to delete her iCloud account from the iPad. Every time I use it to send mail, it automatically sends from under her account, even though I am using it under my gmail account. This has confounded me to no end. I do consider myself pretty computer savvy, but this is my first rodeo with an Apple product and I refuse to go back to a PC ever again. Therefore, I am putting my question out there for Apple techies to give me guidance as I am perplexed and confuddled and need some answers ASAP.
    I await any and appreciate all replies.

  • How can I delete an iCloud account on my iPhone without the password?

    How can I delete an iCloud account on my phone without being able to enter the password?
    The account on my phone is linked to an old email adress that no longer exists and won't accept any of my passwords (although, this account did accept a pasword several days ago to restore my old phone to it's original settings but it won't accept that password anymore...)
    I can't change the password because the first security questions asks for my birthday which it won't accept.
    HELP!

    If your device is signed into your old iCloud ID and you are trying to change it to your current ID, and if the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go tohttps://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 take someone else's iTunes account off my computer

    I helped my brother with his iphone a few weeks ago and he authorized my computer for his account so we could change some of his songs and what not but it synced his apps to my computer, ive deleted them and moved on cause I didnt have an iphone. Well I'm getting an iphone soon so I downloaded some apps for my and now a number has popped up next to apps tab which im told means theres updates but it says there are no updates for my account.
    So how can I unlink his account from my computer so that goes away? it just really bugs me

    You can deauthorize your computer of rhis account by logging into th eiTUnes store with his account/password.
    Go to menu Store -> Deauthorize computer.
    but it synced his apps to my computer, ive deleted them
    How did you delete them? Thru iTunes?
    If not, select the Apps on the left side of iTunes, select all the Apps then delete them.

  • Is there any way to remove App Store and iCloud Account from my Iphone without knowing passwords??

    I dont know the icloud  account passwords becouse i bought iphone from e friend.... Is there anyway to remove those Accounts so i can set up my account becose i cant install new apps without his password...

    You cannot remove the iCloud account without the password if the iPhone is running iOS 7 (check under Settings > General > About > Version). You can sign out of the App Store under Settings > iTunes & App Stores. This part does not require their password.

  • How do I delete someone else's ID account in my App's on my Mac?

    I was looking for a cursor locator, so a friend of mine sent me a link to buy PinPoint via my App's store, but when I clicked on his link, it wanted the password to his email address. Whatever I tried, I couldn't get rid of it. So I purchased PinPoint on my second computer, but my main computer (Mac Pro), there's a PinPoint update, so when I click on Update, it wants my friends password.
    How do I get rid of his email address and see mine? I logged out and back into my account, but that didn't help.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Back up all data.
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, copy the text on the line below into the box that opens, and press return:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
    A Finder window may open with an item selected. If it does, move the selected item to the Trash. Log out and log back in. Test. You'll have to re-enter your Apple ID and App Store settings.

  • How can I delete an iCloud account off my iPhone 5 with iOS 7?

    I have an iPhone 5 that's been updated with iOS 7 and am wondering if anyone can tell me if it is possible to delete another persons iCloud account off my phone without knowing the password and only using my iPhone to do it as I don't have a computer at home but if it can only be done on a computer that's fine I can get access to one if need be but would rather know how to do it from my iPhone, the iCloud setting has let me add another new acc but I want to delete the old one altogether if possible?! Any help is much appreciated, thank you.

    If your iPhone has been set up with another person's iCloud account, then you will need that person's Apple ID and password, or will need them to remove the iPhone from their iCloud account. There is no other way past the Activation Lock.
    Regars.

  • How to complete delete everything from my icloud account.

    How to complete delete everything from my icloud account. Like brand new.

    First go to Settings>iCloud on your device and confirm that everything is turned to Off, and that you are not syncing any data with iCloud before proceeding.  (If you are, when you delete the data from iCloud it will also be deleted from your device and it will be lost.)  When you turn these off, you will be given the option to keep the data on your device.
    To delete your contacts, go to iCloud.com from your computer, log into your iCloud account and open Contacts, click on All Contacts on the left, to the right click on any single contact to select it, click on the Actions (gear shaped) icon at the bottom left and choose Select All, then press the Delete key on your keyboard.
    For Calendars, open your calendar on icloud.com, click Edit on the bottom left, then tap the minus sign to the right of each calendar to delete it.
    For Notes, open notes on icloud.com, click on each note on the left, then click Delete at the top to delete it.
    For Reminders, open reminders on icloud.com, click on each reminder and press your Delete key to delete it.
    For Mail, open your mail on icloud.com, click each folder on the left (such as your inbox), click on a single message to the right, press Control-A on your keyboard to select them all, then press your Delete key.  Repeat this for each of your mail folders except Trash.  When finished, click on the actions (gear-shaped) icon on the bottom left and select Empty Trash.
    To delete your my photo stream photos, open the album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap the trash icon. If you want to keep a copy of them on your device, save them to your camera roll first.

  • How do i delete the icloud account on my iphone without login details

    How do i delete the icloud account on my iphone without login details or access to the email account which it was set up with?

    While you can delete the existing iCloud account by forcing the phone into recovery mode & restoring it, or logging into iCloud.com & erasing the phone, you won't be able to activate the phone unless you you know the original Apple ID/Password that was originally used to activate the phone. The phone will be useless.
    This is called Activation Lock.
