How should i unlink a number from apple id

i have my old phone number linked with my apple id i want to remove that number how can i remove it..???

This is what the previous owner needs to do:
Settings > Messages > iMessage > Off
Settings > FaceTime > Off
Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (this only unregisters and deletes it off the iPhone)
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings

Unlink phone number from Apple ID due to facetime

Apple ID used for many years shared by family. Bought many songs and apps to be used on wife and kids iphone ipod touches. NOW with facetime I want to be able to remove my phone number from that Apple ID and create a new one JUST FOR FACETIME. Keep the original id just for purchases; sharing apps with family. Problem is our ipads use the original id and seem to be assigned my phone number and email. I do NOT want my wife and kids getting my facetime calls and texts!! I have created the new id but cannot seem to remove my phone number from the old id. DO I need to completely reset my iphone to do this? Do I also need to reset the kids ipads?

Hi, Dranon.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Here are the steps for removing your phone number from your Apple ID. I also would recommend signing out completely of iMessage and FaceTime on any device that uses your Apple ID.
Unlink a phone number
To remove a phone number from an Apple ID, sign out of FaceTime and Messages on your iPhone:
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
This should remove your phone number from other devices using the same Apple ID with FaceTime and Messages. If the phone number is still available on other devices after you sign out of FaceTime and iMessage on the iPhone, you may need to sign out of iMessage and FaceTime on all your devices, then sign in to FaceTime and Messages again on devices you want to use.
Note: If you no longer have access to the iPhone that is using the number you want to remove, reset your Apple ID password.

You only have the following options: 1. Change your Apple ID password...doesn't always work though; 2. If you setup a support profile, with Apple, you can login to your support profile & remove the phone...should always work; 3. Call AppleCare.

How do I unregistar my phone number with apple?

If you registered your device with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it. Also, change the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage by going to https://iforgot.apple.com. If those don't work you will have to contact Apple support for assistance.

It seems it was never registered to your Apple ID.
Do you have an iTunes backup of the iPad?
Open iTunes.
Open Preferences. (In Mac OS X, choose iTunes > Preferences. In Windows, choose Edit > Preferences.)
Click the Devices tab.
Position the mouse over a backup to display the serial number of the backed-up device. iPhone and cellular iPad models also display the IMEI/MEID and Cellular Data Number:

My apple id has been associated with a number on one of my family members phone how do i forget this number from my mac

my apple id has been associated with a number on one of my family members phone how do i forget this number from my mac
so this basically means that my iMessage is receiving texts form there friends because it is set up to get and send texts from this number

Use a different Apple ID for iMessage on your Mac. To do this, open the Messages app, go to Messages>Preferences, on the Accounts tab select your iMessage account on the left sidebar, click Sign Out to the right, then sign back in with a different Apple ID.

HT1349 My Ipad was stolen, How can I get the serial Number from Apple. It was registered with them

I had 2 Ipads, a mac book pro and a Mac Air stolen 2 weeks ago
I am trying to locate one of the serial numbers, but cant find the last box. Can I get the serial number from Apple. It was registered and now it is not showing up as one of my products.
Thanks

The easiest way to find your serial number is this Open Itunes...click help... run diagnostics.....(tick or untick as necessary) so that you just have ticked the last two, device connectivity and device sync. run these tests. it will say no ipod/ipad found but will give results of test....scroll down to bottom of results... here you will find the serial number of your last attached devices.

How do I remove phone number from iMessage on one device only

Hi there, I recently upgraded my iphone 4 for an iphone 6 and we decide to let my niece have the old iphone 4 with our account set up so that she can have the apps that we have as well. Now, I am able to deactivate iMessage but I don't want her to "accidentally" turn it on and I noticed that if she were to do it she could select my phone number and start receiving iMessages addressed to my phone number. Is there a way to completely delete/remove my phone number only from that iphone? Thanks for the help

The article linked below will walk you through the process of unlinking the phone number from your Apple ID on the iPhone 4, so that it doesn’t receive iMessages that were intended for your new iPhone 6.

How do I unlink Refurbished Mac from previous owner?

I bought a refurbished Mac and have two questions:
How do I unlink the computer from previous owners Apple ID? I can't register it and add it to my apple account without doing this.
I have two years left on their Apple Care but can't find the Apple Care Agreement number and I want to register it so that I can mange it in my account. How do I find the Agreement number with nothing but the computer's seriel number?
Thanks in advance for the help.

I'm not sure this helps me. If they didn't deauthorize from their account, I can't do that for them. When I turned on the computer for the first time I was able to set it up as a new computer and then transfer data from my previous computer.
Any other ideas out there?

HT202667 how can I remove credit card from apple id ?

i don't want to use apple id with credit card anymore i purchased enough apps for my apple device so now i wanna remove it so how can i remove credit card from apple id

On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link. If you are doing it on your iPhone then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.

How do I unlink my iPod from my old laptop and link it to new one without wiping all the tracks off it

How do I unlink my iPod from my old laptop (Vista) and link it to my new laptop (Windows 7) with deleting all the songs?

Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. It will recognize the iTunes library on the PC as a new library. If you sync the iPod with this new library, all content will be erased from the iPod and replaced with what is in the new library. So what you will want to do is copy everything from the iPod to your new iTunes library on your PC first.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.

If my ipod was stolen can i get my serial number from apple?

how would i get my serial number through apple store if it was stolen today? i need it ASAP beause im in school and the day ends at 1:45...someone help me please

I don't believe you can get your serial number from Apple since they have know way of knowing that you are indeed you, but you can call Apple tech support at 1-800-275-2273 (if you have a cellphone or can make an 800 call from school) and ask.
Otherwise, if you have access to a computer to which you synced the iPod, or someone you can call does, you can find the serial number in iTunes on that computer. See:
