How do you delete an existing iCloud email from your account?

Hi,
My son set up an iCloud email on my account.  When I open my iCloud email and go to preferences and then accounts, the email he created shows up, but I do not see a way to delete it. Is there a way to delete that email and create my own?
Thank you.

Press the minus sign (bottom left, next to the plus sign)
Select the account before you delete it.

  • How can you delete an old apple id from your phone

    Although I have a new Apple ID, the old one keeps prompting for a password.  How can I delete the old one?

    Hi clairebrisvegas,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    Your Apple ID is used for several services through your iPhone. To replace the previous Apple ID you will need to sign out of it in a few different spots and sign in with the current Apple ID (depending on what Apple ID you choose to use for each individual service). The services you may need to sign out of old Apple ID and into new one could include iCloud, Messages, FaceTime, and iTunes & App Stores. You can see what Apple ID is currently signed in and sign out of it in the following areas: Settings > iCloud, Settings > Messages, Settings > FaceTime, and Settings > iTunes & App Store. The following article is a good resource that explains this process.

  • How do you delete things on an ipod from your computer?

    I forgot my ipod passcode and I need to find a way to delete everything off of my computer.

    As I said in my first reply you may not be able to make a backup and you may have to place the iPod in recovery mode. Do the following:
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        

  • HT204053 How do I delete my existing iCloud account (on ALL my apple devices), and start over from scratch??

    How do I delete my existing iCloud account (across ALL my apple devices), and start over from scratch??
    (cant seem to get calendars to ever sync right, on my devices, and across to my wifes'....so want to start with a "clean installation")

    Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account (this disconnects the device from icloud but doesn't delete any data on icloud or on other devices).
    If you then want to sign back in using a different ID, do so on the same screen.
    I also strongly suggest that you and your wife use different icloud accounts, otherwise all your devices will have the same data on them, same emails, reminders, etc.  Most likely not what you want.

    how do i delete a multiple apple id from my account?  I only need one and i have two listed

    Hello javyocks,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Concerning the issue with multiple Apple ID's, please look at the following:
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.
    Take care,

  • HT201084 can you limit what kids can share from your account

    With Family Sharing, do my kids still have to ask permission to download an app that I purchase? I would like to limit what each kid can have from my purchased apps. For example, if I buy a game on my mac mini Family Shared iTunes, can I then decide which kids can download it, or do they all automatically get it?

    Hi,
    If you meant "Hide so he Can't... " then the answer is no.
    Any Screen Sharing lets the Viewing End the same access as you have.
    What you can do is set up a Test User Account on your Mac (System Preferences > Accounts)
    This in effect give that User all their own Folders in their Home Folder.
    You could put Files, docs and other things in the Public Folder of that account, that you want to "Share, from your Account, so that when you Log in as the Test User they can have access to them.
    Public Folders are what other Users on a Mac can "See". They can only Look.
    Unless you set up Remote Login in System Preferences > Sharing to behave differently it is also all someone logging in from outside your computer can "see" (like Windows can only see Shared folders).
    Once you login as another User your regular User Account is inaccessible apart from the Shared (Public folder only by default) folders.
    putting things in the Drop Box in the Test account will make copies of them to do so allowing you to keep unaltered originals.
    I hope I have said that clearly enough.

  • How do i change an existing icloud email address?

    How do you change your icloud email account?

    You can't. I don't know of any email provider that lets you change your email address without actually setting up a new one.
    You can setup an 'alias' which is another address that points to your original one and all email comes in and out of the same mailbox. You can then use the new alias address as your email address.
