How do I disable a mail account without losing the mails?

I would like to disable one of my @me.com mail addresses, so that it is no longer possible to send mails to that account, but I want to avoid losing the mails that have been sent to that account.
Is that possible, and how do I do that?
Kind regards
Willi Prochnow Sletten

Simply move the mail to a folder that isn't associated with that account, before deleting the account from your device.

How do I disable an iCloud account without deleting the account?

The iCloud is getting annoying, because all of my sibling's things are showing up on my ipod, and I don't want that. I don't want to delete the entire account, just disable it on my ipod 5. How do I do that?

Deleting the account only deletes if from your iPod, not from iCloud. Anyone else still using the account will not be effected by this.
If you no longer wish to use iCloud, save any photos stream photos that you wish to keep on your phone to your camera roll by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Edit, tapping the photos, tapping Share, then tapping Save to Camera Roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Keep on My iPod when prompted (in order to keep a copy of your iCloud data on your iPod.)

A friend let me use her old ipad that was still synced to her account. I want to sync it to my account without losing the app progress, notes, and pictures. How do I do this and keep everything on the ipad?

I want to sync an ipad to my iTunes account that used to be synced to another account without losing the data (i.e.- pictures, notes, app progress). Is this possible or will I lose everything once I sync it to my account?

You can't. iDevices are one user devices.

Recently, I discovered I have two iCloud accounts. Is it possible to change the Apple ID from one account to match the second account, without losing the information on each account?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It's a little tricky to move data from one iCloud account to another but it can be done. But what makes you think you have 2 iCloud accounts.

I have an iPad and and iPhone. They share an iCloud and I want separate iCloud accounts. How do I create a new account without losing any information? I want to keep the original account on one device.

I have an iPad and an iPhone that share an iCloud account. I didn't realize when I got my iPad last year that when I signed up the iCloud on the device that it would share and use 5g of iCloud between the both of them. How do I unsync them and have two separate iCloud accounts? I don't care about sharing between them. When my kids put games on my iPad, I don't want them going on my phone. How do I create a new iCloud without losing any info on the other device?

How to use your iPod to move your music to a new computer

Can I move an IPad to a new iTunes account without losing the apps?

I currently have two devices on my itunes account, and would like to move one the devices to a new itunes account (not mine). Is it possible to do this without losing all of the apps that have been acquired on that device?

You can only have one library per user account on a PC/Mac.
So, if you need to create a new library, then create a new user, and transfer the content you want over to that new user. Then sync.
Can you clarify a little more what you're needing?

HT4972 I have ipad version 4.3.2. I have music on there that I want to keep. when I go to itunes i cannot backup those music. how can i update to ios 7 without losing the music?

I have ipad version 4.3.2 and I want to update to ios7. However, I cannot backup my musics on itune. How can I update without losing my musics?

Updating will not cause you to lose data but things can always go wrong. You should definitely backup before you update. I assume you have music on the device that was not purchased in iTunes and synced with a different iTunes library. You can transfer these songs back to your computer with third party software such as TouchCopy.

How to export raw pictures to jpeg without losing the original colors?

Hello guys,
Actually I'm facing a problem
which is I took photos in Raw Format
but unfortunately when I import it to LR
it lose its colors
and here is a video for my problem
LR's problem - YouTube
And now I want a solution
so I can convert it to jpeg
without losing its original colors.
Thank you all in advance

You ask a variation of the age-old question: “Why did LR ruin my photos?” It’s because the initial view is what your camera does for its JPG preview that is embedded in each raw photo based on your camera’s settings and the LR interpretation that loads after a second or two, is the raw data interpreted with the Adobe defaults.
I would guess that your camera is “fixing” the shots somehow, and LR, not knowing what your camera is doing, is just rendering the shots from the raw data as it exists without fixing anything.
Do you know if the camera was in some special mode that fixes things automatically before creating the JPG?

How do I delete an exchange account without losing my calendar and contacts?

I just switched jobs and kept all of my personal appointments and contacts in my Outlook and iPhone. I disabled the email from my previous employer but my iPhone isn't syncing my calendar and contacts with my new work email account. When i go to delete the old email account it tells me it will also delete the calendar and contacts. is there anyway to delete the exchange email accoumt but keep the calendar & contacts???

We have no way of knowing what format, if any, they would use to send it to you.
Honestly, if you're really hoping they will do so, I think you shouldn't hold your breath... The odds are almost infinitesimal that they would do so. Everything on the server is company property. IT would probably laugh hysterically at any request to pull data out of Exchange to send to a former employee.
I'm not trying to be mean, it's just the truth. If there's no court order, it's not leaving the network. At all...
Besides, if you were not an uber-important muckity-muck, they've probably deleted your account already, which means contacts, calenders, and e-mail are already gone. They won't resort to pulling something like this from a backup.

How can I change my iCloud account without losing everything on my iPhone?

When I got my iPhone 4S, I created my own Apple ID with my own information. When my mom got her iPhone a few months later, she used my Apple ID to get it going. I didn't think any harm would come of it, so I let her. But ever since then, she gets all of my iMessages and I get hers. It's really annoying and there's no privacy. I tried asking her to change her ID and get her own, but she doesn't want to. So I figured I would be the one to change even though the information (email address, etc.) on this ID that we share is all mine.
But I'm not quite sure how to do that, and I'm skeptical because I've heard that I might lose all my photos and other saved content. If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
iTunes, iCloud, Messages and FaceTime are all seperate services. You could change your ID for Messages without affecting anything else. If you wish to change your ID for iCloud, you would need to save your data, please let us know if you wish to use another ID for more than messages.

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.
