How do I take an old iPhone off my account so that someone else can use it?

I gave my old iPhone to my husband and registered it with itunes but he didn't find it easy to use and gave it to our son who did the same exercise with it. However, because it is associated with my account and my husband's, my son can't do various things he wants to and it keeps telling him to delete that it has three accounts! How can this be sorted out?

Before selling or giving away an iOS Device...
If desired, move photos/videos off the Camera Roll: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
If desired, backup the device to iTunes or iCloud: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Then, on the device...
Settings > Messages > iMessage > Off
Settings > FaceTime > Off
Settings > iCloud > (scroll down) Delete Accout (this only unregisters and deletes it off the device)
Settings > iTunes & App stores. Tap the AppleID and sign out.
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
Unregister your device at https://supportprofile.apple.com

How do I take my old iphone off my icloud storage after I no longer have the phone?

I need help taking my old iphone off my icloud storage.

The only storage it could be using is an old iCloud backup, if you were backing it up to iCloud. You can remove this from another device that is sharing the account by going to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage, tap the name of the old phone under Backups, then tap Delete Backup.

How do I take an object from an image and save it so I can use it in other images?

I am trying to figure out how to take an object from an image and save it so I can re-use it again in other pictures? I know how to use the magic wand to select the object and place it in a blank image.... but I do not know how to re size the selected object or keep it for later use. Basically I would like to use the object the same way that I use the graphics ... so I guess I am wondering if there is a way that I can make my own graphics... I have Elements Photoshop 13. Thanks for any help/advice.... Jerrie

Hi Jerrie,
You can re-size using Transformation tool. Ctrl + T will give you a box to re-size the image or object.
You can save these object as PNG file with Transparent layer. You can use these objects later in another projects.

There are three apple iphone users in my household with one main computer. How do I set up each iphone (and istore account) so that we don't corss sync contacts, calendars etc. also can i do this through icloud? so that

There are three iphone users in my household but only one main computer. I am the primary users and have all my business contacts on my iphone and computerr. The other two in the household also have iphones with their own contact lists. is there a way to set them up so that we can share some music but not contacts. Aosl need to be able to back up their data which I presume would be through icloud and a separate iapple itues id. how do I go about setting this up?

There is only one solution. Each user must have their own separate user account. All of their respective data would be contained in their separate user accounts. This also means each will have a separate iTunes Library. If you all use the same third-party apps, then each will have to purchase their own copies under their own Apple IDs. Some data sharing is possible. See:

How do I create a single iPhoto Library on a server that multiple people can use at the same time?

Currently our architecture office runs iPhoto buddy to manage our iPhoto libraries but we want to be able to have multiple users viewing the same iPhoto Library? Currently it only allows one user to access this library. How do we do this?

we want to be able to have multiple users viewing the same iPhoto Library?
Do you need to have the multiple users to be able to edit and otherwise manage the photos or just view them?
If it's the latter take a look at Media Pro 1. It's a multiuser and cross platform digital asset management application. With it you store your source files on a server along with the catalog file that Media Pro uses to manage the photos. One user can manage the catalog file while unlimited others can view the file in read only mode with the Media Pro Reader. You can learn more about MP1 at DAM_Forum The DAM Forum
It's a professional and more robust system of managing photos than iPhoto is.

How do I save a web page so that someone else can open it?

Sometimes I want to save web pages as archives for future reference. I thought printing as a PDF would be the most widely readable format, but items on the page are often lost and I end up with question marks.
I have just tried "Save As" to a web archive, and that works well in Safari (meaning that Safari can reopen it perfectly), but when I emailed the file to a PC user they couldn't open it. I assumed a web archive format would be readable by any web browser; obviously that's not the case.
How do I archive a web page so that it is universally readable without losing any content?

A web-link won't work because the particular page I want to send requires a subscription. The story about this particular page I want to send: four of us are planning a 7-day hiking trip through some Tasmanian wilderness, and we don't go unless the weather forecast is fine. I am subscribed to a weather website, but when I send this link:
http://www.weatherzone.com.au/models/meteogram.jsp?lt=twcid&lc=9350
they don't get the meteograms (graphs of various weather aspects out to 10 days).
So, I want to save the particular page and send it off. In general, though, I simply want to archive certain pages.
In my limited testing it looks like:
• Safari can't save a web page accurately;
• Firefox can, but it generates a separate folder of files ( I would have to combine the two, then zip them, then email);
• iCab may be able to, but I haven't tested it yet.
I didn't think saving a web page, incorporated into a single file, would be so complicated.

How can I view a Word document when it tells me that someone else is using the document? This is not true as I am the only one using this Word document which is on my desktop?

I am working on my Ancestry and today when I tried to view my Word document which awaits me on my desktop, I was told that someone else was using it. There is only me to use it, so there couldn't be anyone else. What can I try to open this document again?

Hi,
If you want to move the document to other library immediately, the following workarounds for your reference:
1.Create an Event Receivers for document library and use SPFile.MoveTo
method to move file to the other document library.

http://www.learningsharepoint.com/2010/07/04/programmatically-copy-and-move-documents-in-sharepoint-2010/
2.Create a workflow using SharePoint designer and use Copy List Item Action to copy file, then delete the current document.

If I want to take my old iPhone and swap the number from my wife's phone to it so she can use it for her phone how do I do it?

With AT&T it's ridiculously easy.
Create backups for each device
Log out of iCloud Apple ID
Erase all content and settings
Power off the devices
Change the SIM
Power on the device
Configure with the appropriate Apple ID
Finally, dial 611 to let AT&T know what iPhone should answer to what number.

How do I remove my old iPhone from "Find My iPhone"?

How do I remove my old iPhone from the device list?

From the Help files in the app . . .
Remove Device
If you’re no longer using an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that was set up to use Find My iPhone, you can remove it from Find My iPhone when the device is offline (turned off or not connected to a data network, such as EDGE, 3G, or Wi-Fi). To remove the device, you need to sign in to me.com on a computer.
To remove your device from Find My iPhone:
On a computer, sign in to MobileMe Find My iPhone at me.com/find using your Apple ID email address and password.
If you’re a paid subscriber, your Apple ID is your MobileMe email address (@me.com or @mac.com) and password.
If you set up Find My iPhone on more than one device, click the device you want to remove in the Devices list on the left.
Click the blue arrow to the right of your device’s name (or, if the device hasn’t been located recently, the red clock ).
In the device window, click Remove (to the right of the device name).
The Remove link appears after Find My iPhone has tried and failed to connect to your device. This may take a few minutes.
When asked to confirm if you want to remove the device, click Remove.
If your device goes online again later and is still set up with your MobileMe account information, the device automatically reappears in Find My iPhone. If you still have access to the device, you can prevent it from reappearing in Find My iPhone by removing your MobileMe account information from the device. Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > [YourMobileMeAccount], and then tap Delete Account.

How do I take the zoom feature off my MacBook Pro? I have already went to System Preferences and turned "zoom" off in the Universal Access. I saw where someone said to use THREE fingers to double click... ??? Double click what? And 3 fingers?

Can someone help me?How do I take the zoom feature off my MacBook Pro? I have already went to System Preferences and turned "zoom" off in the Universal Access. I saw where someone said to use THREE fingers to double click... ??? Double click what? And 3 fingers?

What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization. With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options. If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast. I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why? How is this making it a better program? I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was). But to not give users the option to delete that list? It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating. I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature. It smacks of rank incompetence.
What improvement were they trying to make here anyway? There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions. Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
And reverting to a previous version is no solution. I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

HT5621 When I got my new iPhone and was trying to switch everything over I accidentally set up a new icloud account with one email and had one on my old iphone with another account. Does anyone know how I can merge the two accounts?

When I got my new iPhone and was trying to switch everything over I accidentally set up a new icloud account with one email and had one on my old iphone with another account. Does anyone know how I can merge the two accounts?

You cannot merge Apple IDs but you can go to Settings > iCloud and 'Delete Account'. When prompted to turn off documents and data, choose the only option which is Delete from my iPhone, but on the other prompt for Contacts, Calendars, etc you can choose 'Keep on my iPhone' Then once the Account is Deleted form the iPhone, log back in with the correct Apple ID and choose Merge when prompted. This will merge your data from this iPhone with that iCloud account effectively putting your devices on the same account.

How do I take credit card information off my iTunes account?

I just bought a new iPhone and had to update all my Apple ID information. It did not give me the option to opt out of including my credit card info. so I put it in. I bought $25 iTunes card and thought that if I booth the app it would automatically ask for the iTunes code. It didn't so I got charged on my credit card witch it now negative. After I figured that out I put the $25 on my iTunes the right way with no issues. Today I the app I purchased said I need to update it but as I to update is instantly brings up my credit card info. and says there is a precious purchase issue that needs to be resolved. How do I take the credit card off? Do I need to put money on my card in order to clear things up? And would erasing my card also erase the app I bought?

First you will have to take care of the outstanding balance. Then you can only adjust the payment method in iTunes on the comptuer, not on the phone.
To take care of the balance, you will have to contact iTunes support. http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html No one here can help you with this.
