How to close my apple id account

How do I deactivate my Apple ID account?  I have people with iphones still trying to message me and I am unable to receive them as their Iphones are still trying to imessage me instead of text message.
Also I no longer have the iphone

Perhaps you might go to your apple account, sign in and delete yourself?
You'll lose stuff saved to that ID.
^^^
I tried this but it won't allow me to do that....I don't have worries about loosing things as I don't have any other apple products or any use for anything that might be saved

  • How to close my Apple Support Account

    I appear to have at least two Apple Support Community accounts. Let's call them A (my original one) and B (one I set up in error).
    How can I close B?  (The account I'm using to post this question is B.)
    The eMail address associated with B is the one I want associated with A and the system won't allow me to do this while it is still associated with B.
    In addition, I can't even log into A because it asks me to choose a user name and then refuses permission to use my records as the eMail address is already in use.
    Thank you!

    Thank you  I did receive a very pleasant reply but I fear I may have asked the wrong question in the first place as I was getting so confused!
    As far as I know, I have two different Apple IDs (I only want the first one that I setup!) But it appears they are each associated with a different e-mail address.  So my problem appears not to be with the Apple IDs themselves (although I would dearly like to delete the second one) but rather with the Apple support communities account.
    When I sign  into Apple communities as [email protected] (eMail addressed changed here for privacy!),  I am asked to "Choose your Apple Support Communities username"   So I choose one.  I am then presented with the message in bright red text "An account utilizing this email address already exists. Only one account per email address is allowed on Apple Support Communities.".   I am then not able to proceed so are unable to use the support community area.
    If I sign in to the other account ([email protected]),  I can login perfectly well but this is the account I would rather close so I can use the original one.
    Do you have any idea how I can proceed? The message I received suggested that I have yet another account using the [email protected]  e-mail address but I am at a loss to find out which account that might be!

  • How to close my Apple account???

    Hi there,
    I'm just wondering if there is a way to fully close my Apple Discussions account, and whether it can be trickled down to all other Apple accounts which I have under the same user id?
    cheers

    You can simply stop posting and your account will become inactive as a result, but it stays in the database. If you have an iTunes account, I suppose you can cancel your credit card as well.

  • HT2731 how can i create apple id account if i don't have credit card?

    how can i create apple id account if i don't have credit card of any gift certificates from itunes?

    You already have an Apple ID, or you wouldn't be posting here. I presume you mean an iTunes Store account. If you only want the free apps, take a look here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID. 
    You will of course not be able to get anything other than the free content without entering in some sort of payment method (credit card, prepaid iTunes card, gift certificate, etc.)

  • How to verify my apple id account

    i cant download apps on my ipod because i cant verify my apple account

    When creating an iTunes account you should receive an email to the email address on the account, with a 'verify now' link in it. Have you received the email ?
    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622 :
    Why am I sometimes asked to verify my Apple ID by email?
    When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, Apple will require you to sign in by following the link in a verification email. This is to help protect your identity and keep your account secure. Some Apple services, such as FaceTime and GameCenter, require email validation.
    How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
    Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • How to abolish my Apple ID Account?

    Apple Store is constantly refusing my Visa Card, even though the same card works fine with all other net purchases as well as regular stores.
    From the Apple Support I got the advice to quit my current Apple Account a set a new one instead. But I never found any help for how to quit an account for good.
    I just wanted to buy an iPhoto Book; I surely won't be purchasing a Mastercard for that purpose only!

    Click here, phone Apple, and ask them to delete it.
