How to delete current owner/admin account and create a new owner/admin acct

I am the owner and only user of my G5. I've owned it since 2007 when it was new.
I need to delete my current account and establish a new owner/admin account. When completed the new owner/admin account should be the only account on the machine.
Can anyone offer some help.
Thanks

Here's the deal..
I own a software titled "Kinemac". It's a 3D animation software which creates QT movies to import into Final Cut Pro. I've had the software since last April and about a month ago, all of a sudden, the program would no longer open. I contacted Kinemac's Support. They said my computer had apparently been "banned" by the software. (Maybe it saw the computer as trying to pirate the program.?????)
I tried downloading a new copy of the software, reinstalled, entered serial#, etc. and still would not open. There was no crash. It just would not open.
Kinemac said its only way to correct the problem was to enter into a screen share with iChat. I tried for 20 minutes with them to establish screen share with no luck. We could "chat" but not screen share. So, I came to the Apple Discussions pages on iChat and spent about an hour with a Discussions' User on iChat with NO luck there either. I gave up on iChat. Not certain I wanted someone unknown on a screen share anyway.
Which brings us to this point. Kinemac says I can also add a new Admin Acct. Delete the current Admin and then rename the new user with the old user's name. I frankly don't want to mess around doing that but apparently there's alternative for Kinemac. So that's why I'm seeking info on how to do it. I really like the software and want to rectify the situation.
Hope this explains the situation. Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.
    First check that your device is correctly connected to the wifi/internet (settings > wifi)
    If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
    If this doesn't help, try turning off some items for back up in a pattern to try to establish if your problem is being caused by specific data on your device.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • Can i delete my itunes store account and create a new one?

    i have an itunes account open already but its old and full of old downloads and songs which are not relevant to me anymore. id like to delete my account and open a new one, is this possible? if not, how could i make a new account with the same email as my old account?
    any help is much appreciated, thank you.

    Then just delete the music from your iTunes library that you no longer want.
    There is no reason to create a new iTunes account to purchase new music. This will not delete the old music in your iTunes library.

    When you delete a Pop mail account, it disappears from the Account Settings and Folder Pane, but fortunately it still exists in the Profile folder unless you had removed it.
    Ideally, you should have moved all the emails into 'Local Folders' before removing the account.
    You could use this addon tool to import messages into 'Local Folders' account.
    '''ImportExportTools: '''
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/
    Download the .xpi file and save to desktop or Downloads folder.
    '''To install addon:'''
    In Thunderbird
    'Tools' > 'Addons' OR 'Menu icon' > 'Addons'
    * click on the gear wheel icon and select 'Install addon from file'
    * Locate and select the .xpi file you downloaded and click on 'Open'.
    * After installing you will need to restart Thunderbird to activate.
    In 'Local Folders' create some folders with suitable names.
    Right click on folder > ImportExportTools
    There are a couple of Options on importing
    See image below as example aid.

  • I changed email address and had to delete my account and create a new one with the new email address. When I did this i lost all of the information in my calendar. How can I recover this vital information?

    My email address changed and I had to delete my account and create a new one with the new address. After I did this all of the data in my iPhone calendar is gone. How can I recover this vital data?

    It is my understanding that if you delete the account per the instructions below, you will be able recreate, but you will NOT have access to the prior BBM contacts.
    Read this for full information and suggestions to regain access to your BBID >> http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-World/How-to-regain-access-to-your-BBID/td-p/25467...
    You have to remember either the BlackBerryID password, or the secret question answer. Without either, you're stuck.
    Your choices are:
    --Use another email account to create an entirely new BlackBerryID (with which you will lose access to any purchased apps using the "forgotten" first BlackBerryID, or
    --Find the initial email you were sent to confirm the initial BlackBerryID, and in it is a link to click to cancel and delete the account. Click on that, delete the account and then you can use that same email to create an entirely new account.
    Good luck.

  • Hi, I need to take my daughter off from our Apple account and set up her own. So, delete her from one account and create her own. Realize I sound imbecilic for not knowing how to do this. Any ideas? Thank you so much. Jules

    Hi, I need to take my daughter off from our Apple account and set up her own. So, delete her from one account and create her own. Realize I sound imbecilic for not knowing how to do this. Any ideas? Thank you so much. Jules

    You don't have to take her off your account exactly: she needs to sign out from your account on her computers and devices. Then she can obtain an Apple ID at http://appleid.apple.com and use it to sign into System Preferences or Settings>iCloud.
    However, there are some issue about this. If she has been syncing her calendars and contacts to your account then the data will disappear from her devices, but remain on your account. Individual calendars can be exported  as .ics files and reimported into her account, but if she has her contacts mixed up with yours she will have to enter them individually in the new account (or export yours, import them into hers, and delete the ones she doesn't want.
    More intractable is the email issue. She cannot move an address from your account to hers, so if she has been using a alias on your account to have her own address she cannot transfer it. She will have to create a new email address.

  • HT2623 How do I delete my icloud email address and create a new one?

    How do I delete my icloud email address and create a new one?

    You can't, except by creating a new iCloud account.  But you can create an @icloud.com email alias address to use that will receive email in your current inbox (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622).  (Note: alias addresses cannot later be used to create a new iCloud account, nor can they be moved to another account or be reactivated should you ever delete them.)

    It is not possible to delete an apple id completely. You can only delete information like credit card, adress, name... To do this, go to iTunes Store, click on your email adress in the upper right corner and enter your password. Now you can manage your account.
    An apple id without password is not possible.

  • I need to know how to delete an old apple account and to create a new account because i forgot some related information

    i need to help to delete an old apple account and to reate a new account because i forgot some related information for the old accounts

    If you have iCloud and/or iTunes accounts just sign out of them (however iTunes Store purchases cannot be transferred to a different account). You can create a new ID at http://appleid.apple.com - you will need a different non-Apple email address.
    However if you've forgotten the password to the original account, go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com; click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'

  • I have 2 id apple. 1of them don´t recongize my adress in Brazil. I tried to create another account but the ipad refuse it. I´d like to exclude these 2 accounts and creat a new account with my same email. How can I do it?

    I don't know if that works on the iPhone, but....
    View your SETTINGS and choose ICLOUD. That will give you your cloud settings. At the very bottom it has a delete button. Click it an see what happens. After deleting the account (and potentially loosing data connected with it) you should be able to log in to iCloud using your old id.

    des7931,
    You should be able to go to your software on your computer and click on the >Scanner Actions section.
    Then click on>Scan to E-Mail Wizard
    This should bring up a screen to edit, change, or delete the stored email addresses for scan to email.

  • Can i delete my admin account and make a new one?

    i want to start a new account cos i have so much rubbish on my current one. i have worked out how to make new accounts but cant work out how to delete my main (current) admin account?
    any help would be great. thanks.

    Create a new account with Admin privileges.
    Backup important files (Documents, Music, etc).
    Log out of current account.
    Log into new admin account.
    When you are sure you have backed up and moved everything over, you can then delete the old previous admin account. You can have more than one admin account so it's not necessary to delete immediately. Actually, it's not a bad idea to have another backup admin account for troubleshooting purposes.
    Be advised though that you'll have to have separate names for each account.

  • How can I delete my itunes account and create a new one ?

    Hi Everyone
    I've got a problem with my current account itunes (french) :
    I'm between France and Spain. I usaully use french applications but I would like to be able to pick some apps in the spanish itunes store, and in the english one (such as i already do in the french one). Lately I change my payment data to my spanish visa card data, since then I cannot download any app anymore.
    So I tried to create a new account in the itunes store choosing the spanish location, but it s not possible since my actual email adress is the back up email adress of my french account .
    Can you please provide me some support ?
    A good day to you all.

    You can access www.appleid.apple.com and open your old account and delete.

    I suggest changing the existing ID rather than creating a new one, all purchases are forever linked to the ID that bought and can never be transferred, you can change all detauils about your ID here:
