How do i remove an account that doesnt work

when i turn on my macbook it shows this account that i cant even log on too when i click on it, it tells me to restart it and when i do nothing changes, i was wondering how i can remove that account from my computer. Also when i go into system prefrences and then account then to the user when i click the user so i can hit the minus button  on the bottom so i can delete it the button is not bold meaning i cant click it

System Preferences>Users & Groups. Unlock the lock by putting in your admin password and select the account and hit the - sign.

    How can i deauthorize a computer that doesnt work anymore?

    Hi,
    If you can't start iTunes on a computer, you can't deauthorize.  But really, don't worry for the reason that, once you will reach the 5 authorizations you are allowed to, you will be able to use the "deauthorize all computer" option to reset all of them (this can be done once per year).
    i would also like to change my main device to my new computer.
    I don't understand this one.  As of computer authorization, there isn't any "main" device.

  • TS3988 The Apple ID that I use isn't the one I want my for my iCloud. How do I remove the account that is already logged in without deleting everything from off my iPhone?

    All of the iPhones we have in my house are all connected to the same Apple ID. If I upload all of my stuff to iCloud will it merge with anything anyone else uploads?
    Thanks!

    Yes.  All of the phones that use the same ID for iCloud will be sharing the same iCloud account.  Any data synced with the shared account will be merged and will appear on all devices.  Also, any actions taken on synced data (such as deleting contacts or adding calendar events) will be replicated on all devices sharing the account.
    To keep your data separate, everyone should use a separate iCloud account with a separate ID on their devices.  You can continue to share the same ID for iTuens; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iCloud.

  • 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.

    =I got a replacement iphone 4 and now it keeps asking me for my kids passwords for the apple id. How do I remove their accounts without messing up their passwords?

    An iTunes account cannot be transferred to or created on an iOS device by itself.
    Did you sync your iPhone with iTunes when iTunes was logged in with your kid's iTunes account - did you transfer any iTunes content to your iPhone including apps that were downloaded with your kid's iTunes account?
    If so, this is why you are being prompted for the password for that iTunes account.

    I bought a used iphone. I installed ios 7 before I realized that the previous owner's email and password are still in the phone. How can I remove them so that I can use the icloud and "find my phone" feature?

    Thanks so much! It will be kinda weird to contact the person directly, but I guess I will give it a try. Is there anything that I can refer her to in this discussion to let her know I am legit, and not a creeper? Also, I don't know if you can answer this or not. When I plug my phone into itunes, and it says that it is backing up, does that mean that it is going into the other person's cloud, since I cannot access it?

  • How do I remove a song that is on my device but not in my selected library?

    How do I remove a song that is on my device but not in my selected library?

    There is no way to delete songs from an iPod.
    Nothing will be touched on your iPod in regards to iTunes content with the first sync with iTunes on your new computer if you transfer your iTunes library from your old computer to your new computer following the simple instructions included with the link provided. Certainly as a Windows user you maintain a backup for all important data which should include your iTunes library? Important regardless the platform but even more so with Windows due to constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns. Or do most Windows users start with a new computer from scratch without transferring any data from an old computer to a new computer due to constant virus, adware, and spyware concerns?
    iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store only from an iPod - really. As the largest distributor for music and as #1 by far in MP3 player sales, this is required by those who own the distribution rights for the music. Part of an effort to prevent or minimize stealing music by those who own the distribution rights.
