The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it.

  • How to delete icloud account off my phone

    I got my iphone and stupidly backed it up from my compute. I know have my ex''s icloud account and I cant remove it. We are no longer in contact so I just want my icloud on there is there a way to delete it without the password? or add my account to it ?

    No, you will either need to enter the information that it is requesting (aka his password) or contact Apple.  Be prepared to provide a proof of purchase (like a receipt even if its a copy from online or you have to call and get it) if you need to call them. Contact Apple for support and service

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't actually delete an account but you can log out and create a new one. You'd do that from the iCloud system preference panel.

  • Deleting iCloud account off an iphone 4 (iOS 5) device - what happens?

    I want to delete the icloud account off my sons iphone as it is using the same details as mine. I want to then create a new icloud account on his iphone.
    The questions are...
    By deleting the icloud account off his iphone, will it affect my iphone in any way (ie will I lose anything from my device)?
    Will he lose anything which is currently on his iphone device, photos, contacts etc?

    If your off the services "one by one" on his device (Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Accounts), you will be asked if you want to keep the contacts on his device. He will not lose camera roll photos, but he will lose the access to your Photo Stream.
    If you delete the account on his device (Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Accounts > Delete Account) you will not lose anything on your device.

  • How to delete iCloud account, with non-existing email as ID, on iPad?

    Cannot delete iCloud account (which happens to have a non-existing ID) on iPad in order to have same account as on iPhone - keep trying using current Apple ID and PW but to no avail - iCloud settings continue to insist that Apple ID/PW is wrong but they are the ones I have in "manage my ID"???

    If the ID is your the iPad is signed into is your old ID, and if your new ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPad on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How to delete icloud account without a password

    Hi
    I have just bought an iPad that was advertised as new however when I went to set this up, the previous owner had already set up an iCloud account. How would I delete this? everytime i try to delete account it asks for a password for 'find my iphone to be turned off' which i obviously don't have.
    Any ideas please??

    Hi swatts88!
    I have an article that addresses that situation and can provide some insight for you:
    What if I purchase a device that is still linked to the previous owner's account?
    Contact the previous owner as soon as possible and ask them to erase the device and remove it from their account. For complete instructions, read how to remove a device from a previous owner's account.

  • HT4865 How to delete icloud account

    Hello,
    I'd like to know how to delete an icloud account in order to can create a new one.
    I dont want to change my apple account... I just want to be able to create a new icloud account (mainly a new icloud e-mail)...
    What can I do!?
    Many thanks!

    II'm in the same situation. Purchased a refurbished IPhone 5. I had to do a factory reset and when I reset it again, itunes tells me that the phone is linked to someone else. Called the company I bought the phone from and they say iTunes can do a master reset to link my iTunes account to the phone. Have any of you heard of this being possible?

  • Deleting iCloud Account on iPhone

    I have an iPhone 4s and upgraded it to iOS 7. For whatever reason the account that iCloud assumed was one that I no longer use, so I would like to use my new one - it keeps prompting me for the password on the old one, which makes it all the more irritating. What makes it confusing is that I have all of the iCloud sync options checked (essentially, everything I have on my phone syncs to iCloud). When I go to "Settings > iCloud" and click "Delete Account" it returns the following: "If you delete your account, all documents and photo stream photos stored in iCloud will be deleted from this phone." Does that mean that if I delete it then all my photos will be gone from my phone? How do I delete it but keep the photos, then add a new account so everything that is currently on my iPhone will sync on the new account?
    Thanks.

    Go here:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Change back to your old Apple ID. Save the changes...DO NOT sign out. Go to your phone & see if you can delete the iCloud account now. If so, change your ID back to your new ID, save changes, then sign out.

  • How to delete iCloud account from iPad with ios8

    I have an iPad that is used for work. The person I relieved has their iCloud account attached to it. They have the password and signed in but there is no longer a "delete account" button. I don't want to delete it through "find my iPhone" because we don't want to erase the ipad. so how do I get rid of his and replace it with mine?
    Thanks.

    there should be a sign out button where the delete account button is. it serves the same function.

  • How to delete iCloud account on iPad

    OK, I'm trying to change my apple id, and I got the iCloud account changed on my iPhone, but I cannot get the iCloud account to delete on my iPad. I go to settings>iCloud>Account>Account window comes up, but I don't have an option to delete. Where am I going wrong?

    Go to Settings>iCloud.  Delete Account is at the bottom.
    (It's also at the bottom in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>your iCloud account.)

  • How to delete ICloud account given forgotten password

    I cannot manage ICloud so I would like to delete it. The appleid that shows up in the icloud portion of settings is an old email from two years ago and the system does not like any password I can dream up that might ever have been the right one. The inflexibility of IOS at this point prohibits my trying to get the password from Apple. If anyone has a real solution I would like to hear it as I have tried all the ones that start with "Why don't you try ...?"
    Thanks in advance.

    randers4,
    Inasmuch as you instructions were probably right on target they were in fact somewhat mystifing so I followed the rest of your advice and checked in to the Genius Bar at the local Apple Store. There I found an able technical person who dived into the problem until he realized he also could not solve it because I had forgoten the password to the iCloud account.
    Then I called the number he gave me for Apple support and was put in touch with another able expert who walked me down a pathway towards success until that also failed. He then turned me over to "Senior Technical Advisor" who took over the project and proceeded to engineer a solution. He had me hook up my IPAD to my MacMini running SnowLeopard and bring up the connection in iTunes. From there I followed his instructions with unwaivering rectitude until the final solution was achieved. Immediately afterwards he must have waived his "Men in Black" forget wand over the phone at me and caused me to forget some of the steps we went through so I cannot reproduce them here. However, such geniuses exist and they reside at the Apple Support Center.
    Thank you again for your advice and guidance. All is well in Apple Land.

  • How to delete icloud account that not yet verified

    i have a problem on my icloud account i allready sign it but not yet verified. the problem is i forgot my password on that account but it is still sign in on it.is it possible to change it

    You can't. You'll have to contact the previous owner to have them do it or give you their credentials. If you cannot contact them or they are unwilling to provide you with that info, then you are out of luck.

  • How to delete @me account on iPhone?

    The default email address when I send emails from my iPhone 4 is an @me account that I didn't even know I had. But when I go into Settings/Mail/Accounts, it is not even listed, so I cannot delete it. How do I get rid of it, or set one of my regular email addresses as the default return address?

    It is probably the @me.com created when using iCloud email if not originally set up by an old Mobile Me account.
    To set the correct email to be the default sender go to
    Settings/mail,contacts & calanders
    Scroll down to default account and choose the correct email address.
