How do I remove an account from app store

I would like to remove an account on my macpro. When I set up my mac I used my apple ID. I then gave the mac to my son and he is using his apple id. Whenever he needs to update a mac app like iphoto it asks for my apple id. I would like to remove my id  for help so he does not always need to come to me.
Thank you

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
The issue is that if these iLife apps came bundled on the Mac and your Mac did not come with install DVDs, then these apps have been accepted into your Mac App Store account. The only way to change this is to call Apple Care and as per Hacks previous posts, request to be transferred to the Account Support Team and request that they release the Mac and bundled apps from your account's Apple ID.

  • HT204266 how do I remove a user from app store

    The app store will not allow me to update my apps without updating a user that was the previous owner of the laptop. How do I remove this person from the computer etc.

    If you mean an iTunes store id then Settings > Store - touch the id on the right and select sign-out from the popup. You can also do it via the bottom of the Feature tab in the App Store app. If you have any apps on the iPad that were downloaded/installed via that id then you may want to delete them - if updates for them ever appear in the App Store then you will only be able to update them via the id that was used to buy them (apps are linked to the account id, not to the device that they are on)

  • I bought my friend's used laptop. She doesn't know how to get her itunes account off the laptop, so I'm not able to do anything. How do I remove her account from the laptop?

    I bought my friends Toshiba laptop. Her itunes account is on there, hooked up to a credit card. She doesn't remember her ID. I think I had it emailed to her by typing in her email address and first and last name. Now that she probably HAS her Apple ID and Password, how do we remove her account from the laptop so I can use MY itunes?

    Delete the ENTIRE iTunes folder from her user directory.
    Frankly, you should be restoring the laptop as new, either using the restore CD provided by Toshiba or by reinstalling Windows with a Windows CD to remove ALL of her personal information.

    there are many reasons not to update apps,  wow, you probably just buy anything people tell you!!  Sometimes you lose parts of an app with an update, like when shazam started limiting how many checks you could do. if you didn't update you would still be able to have unlimited downloads.  OF course eventually you will have to either update or it wont work with a new operating system roll out , but that buys you a lot of time to re-evaluate shazam and see if you really think it's all that or not.  if you would have updated your software right away like apple wanted you to last year, you would have been one of the millions that had all their info posted all over the web for every crook, hacker and thief to look over!!  I;m guessing from your reply you probably are one of the ones that was security compromised. there are just 2 reasons out of a whole list of reasons why someone might not want to  update their apps!!  If you don't have anything helpful to say when someone asks a question, your not doing them or anyone a favor just zip and move along to something you might be able to  help someone with

  • How do I use my account wit app.store in another country?

    I made my account with app.store in India, now I am in Belgium and I wants to download some programmes from Belgium app.store but every time I get the message that " your account is not valid for Belgium store,you must switch to indian store befor purchasing" I don't know what to do and how to solve this.

    You need to  change your account to the  Belgian store. Sign into your account in the iTunes app and view your account details using the account link in the Quick Links on the right side of the Featured pane. There is a section in the  account details for Region/Country. In order to change to the Belgium store you must provide a verifiable bank card from a Belgium bank with a verifiable billing address in Belgium.

  • I sold my Mac Book Air.How do I remove my account from it?

    I sold my Mac Book Air. 128 GB SSD. OSX 10.7.5 How do I get my name off it, and let the new owner register it so they can get all the upgrades?
    Thank you.

    Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
    Step One - Back up your data:
           A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
           B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
              1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
              2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
              3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
                  side.
              4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
                  sure to opt for that.
                   Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
                   startup drive.
    Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
              1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
              2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
              3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
              4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
              5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See.What to do with iCloud before selling your computer
    Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
         A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
              1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
              2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
              3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
                  Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              4. Install OS X.
              5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
              6. Shutdown the computer.
         B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
             Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
                       it is three times faster than wireless.
              1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
                  Utilities window appears.
              2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
              3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click
                  on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
              4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
                  and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
              6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
              7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
              8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
    *If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.

  • How do I remove an account from my online account?

  • How do I remove multiple accounts from the iOS Notes?

    Hello,
    I recently signed up for iCloud and began syncing all info across it. On my iPhone Notes app, it lists 3 accounts: On my iPhone, On my Mac, and iCloud. How do I remove On my iPhone and On my Mac, so that I am just using iCloud?
    Thanks.

    I did this awhile ago although I don't remember how I did it. I believe these accounts should disappear once you have deleted all the notes in their accounts on the iPhone. You might also look at the iTunes Info sync settings for your iPhone to see if the option is still there to disable it. Although I believe direct syncing and it's options were removed. You can also try swiping sideways on the accounts to see if the "Delete" button appears.
