How do i remove my old apple id from an old iphone...i cannot access via email nor security questions, pw does not work.

I got rid of my old iphone and opened new apple id and pw on this new ip4s. I cannot access the old apple ID via usual
access ie., security questions, password or email verification. The email never arrives and when I answer the security it states incorrect answer.
I just want to delete that old apple id account for security reasons, hackers, thieves, potential unknown risks.
Please advise.
Thanks.
C.

The Apple ID exists. The email address you used to create it may not, but the Apple ID does. Call AppleCare and ask to speak to someone in account security.

    How can I remove an incorrect Apple ID from my ipad and replace it with the correct one?

    Hello Shy guy,
    You can try this:
    1. Go to the iTunes Store or App Store
    2. Scroll down, there you will see Apple ID: "your email" (below Redeem and Send Gift)
    3. Tap on that button
    4. Tap on Sign Out
    Now you should be able to use another Apple ID.

  • TS3212 I get an apple application support error when installing itunes. It says uninstall and re-install.  Does not work.  same message.  What is a solution?

    I get an apple application support error when installing itunes. It says uninstall and re-install.  Does not work.  same message.  What is a solution?

    Is that an error 2 message?
    If so, let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • How do I remove a secondary apple id from my Mac? I am being prompted for a apple id password for a former user; I do not have the information.  Prevents updates from App Store.

    How do I remove a secondary Apple ID that is not in use from my MacBook pro? The ID does not belong to me and when I attempt to download updates from App Store with my Apple ID, I am prompted for the password of the secondary Apple ID.

    Is this a second hand Mac? If so, you need to erase the Mac and install the version of OS X that shipped installed on the Mac from the factory. Then you set the Mac up as new with your Apple ID.
    User Linc Davis explains how a new owner can prepare a 2nd hand Mac for their own use.

  • How do I remove locations and/or pins from maps on iphone 5

    How can I remove locations and/or pins from MAPS?

    A purple pin is a dropped pin. You access that from the "back" of the map, but touching the lower right corner of the map. It is a pin that is dropped in the center of the map you happen to be looking at at the time. If there is no description of the pin, touch the pin and it should show a label, and on the right side of the label there is a blue arrowhead. Touch that and it will provide an address/description of the pin's location and there should be other options, such as directions to here, from here, etc., and then one to remove the pin. Touch that and it should disappear.

  • How do I change my alternate apple id from the old email address I no longer use? I am not given an edit option. Thx

    How do I change my alternate apple id which is an old email address I no longer use? I am not given an edit option. This old email address has already been removed from alternate email options but does not want to leave the alternate ID position! Thx

    Your apps were purchased under the old ID, so they will have to be deleted and re-purchased/downloaded under your new one.

  • How do I remove an extra Apple ID from my iPod?

    Somehow, my child added a seperate Apple ID to my iPod Touch & now every time I try to update it asks for the password to the account & of course my child has forgotten it. How do i remove it so i can use mine?

    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
    Thus, you need to delete the app(s) purchased with that account

  • I have used the Apple Configurator to add my iPhone and AppleTV to the corporate network but some services do not work.

    Hi,
    Thanks in advance to anyone that can offer support.
    I have used the Apple Configurator to add a profile to both my iPhone 5 and AppleTV (both with latest OS) to enable them to be on our corporate network.
    I can now airplay from my Mac to the TV and my iPhone to the TV.
    The phone can access the internet fine and the AppleTV can access YouTube and Photo Stream without any issues.
    THE PROBLEM: The AppleTV cannot access the iTunes Store and the iPhone cannot get e-mail (either from Exchange server or from iCloud (or Gmail).
    Thanks again for any support in rectifying the issue.
    Tim

    Yes, it's pretty much the same with photos, you can't save them to iCloud. Again you're better using something like dropbox.
    There is a photo feature with iCloud call photo stream, however it only saves your most recent photos, 1,000 and your last 30 days.

  • HT5622 how do I remove an unwanted apple id from my app store updates

    My app store has added a new app to update, unfortunately the ID required is not mine.
    I  dont have this app installed.
    Can anyone show me how to remove this update from my app store

    App store menu > Store > Sign out to remove the apple ID.
    However the program itself may trigger the update notification. You need to uninstall the program corresponding to the update.
    That should stop it.
