How do I remove a Apple account from iTunes

My Mother-in-law had one of her grandchildren (not mine) plug in their iPod touch into her iMac, and download all kinds of games and music with their apple account. She got an iPad, and it automatically registered it with that other account, and she cannot install any apps or any updates because she does not have their password for their apple account. How do I flush iTunes of any and everything related to the grandkids so that she can use her own account, then wipe her iPad and connect it so that she can use it for something other than email and web surfing? My idea is to flush everything in the Music folder on her iMac, but will this kill everything. We are not concerned about retaining any information in that folder because she has never used her iMac for music storage, etc.

If there are items in the iTunes library that you wish to delete, use the Delete key.
If your mother-in-law wishes to have her own iTunes account, she can simply go to the iTunes "Store" menu item and select Create Account. (If Create Account does not appear, first choose Sign Out, and then try again.)

    Are you giving it away temporarily or permanently?
    If temporarily, you could delete the email account or remove the account's saved password and uncheck the account's enable this account option.
    If permanently, you should create a new user account for the new owner, then delete your user account. You may also have to reinstall the version of OSX that was originally licensed to the Mac and remove any applicable applications that are not transferable.

  • How do I remove my book titles from iTunes bookstore?

    How do I remove my book titles from iTunes bookstore?

    With regard the  reply or  part of, which  you edited out.....   as you  already have the book(s) on sale elsewhere, it is not costing you anything to have them  on the iBooks store, so  why remove from sale??
    I also note the price comparisons and suggest that this may be a factor in low (any) sales so maybe its an area you could consider.  Also,  if you have a website/ facebook etc,. are you promoting sales  via you friends and  followers.
    In   iTunes Connect  > Deliver your Content are a number of PDfs  to download, one of which covers Marketting, it may be worth looking at it.
    Other than that,, good look with your  books where ever they are on sale.

    How do I remove credit card information from my iTunes account?

    On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on an iOS device (iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch) then you could try tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Store on iOS 6+) and selecting 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
