How to delete old skype accounts

When skype asked me to change my pasword, it said that I have now 7 skype accounts. I made them on older computers. I only need one of them, and want to delete all the old ones, so that if people are trying to find me, they only see my current account.How do I proceed? thanks

Dear Readers,
Please review this information: 'Can I delete my Skype account?' and then contact customer service to file your request.
Please note, you must contact Skype Customer Service directly to accomplish this. Out of security and privacy concerns, no customer service team would be wise to act upon requests posted on a public website.
If you do not know the usual identity-proving means such as e-mail address and password, Customer Service can request other details for you to confirm.
Regards,
Elaine

How to delete duplicate Skype account and get cred...

I am a returning Skype user. I could not find my old Skype account. So, I signed up for a new account yesterday. I paid for some credit with my credit card. Then, I found the old account which I prefer to use is still available. Now, I need help cancelling the new account I just added and getting a refund of the credit I purchased. I am not able to access the new account as Skype does not recognize my name, password and email address. I have tried to get in touch with Skype Customer Service to no avail. Could someone advise me on how to proceed? Thank you endlessly

You can't delete it, but you can create an email alias address to use that will receive email in your current iCloud inbox, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a. Just be aware that an alias address cannot later be used to create a new iCloud account or be moved to a different account.
After creating your alias, you can set up an email rule at icloud.com that will send email addressed to your main iCloud email addres to the trash or junk folder, as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a3f8a.

Deleting old skype accounts

Hi I have a huge dilemma. My dad has had me create various skype accounts for him over time and now he wants to delete all but the one he remembers the password to. He wants me to figure out how to do this for him but when I go on the solutions forum it mentions logging into the account with your known password and deleting the account from the inside which defeats the whole purpose here. How do we just delete the account from the outside- like right click delete or someone we can email? He just needs one account. Please help!!!

Hi, ConfusedUser123, and welcome to the Community,
Your dad could (or you could, if he provides his password to you) sign in to the Skype website and request all of the other accounts be removed. Please see this thread (topic) for all of the how-to's: http://community.skype.com/t5/Security-Privacy-Trust-and/How-Do-I-Delete-My-Skype-Account/td-p/31461...
Skype does not provide a single-click "delete my account" facility as you describe; the accountholder must file the request with Skype Customer Service.
Skype does not use a central or general e-mailbox; instead, we use the web-form as also explained here: 'Can I delete my Skype account?'

How do I delete old WiFi Accounts?

I have two Macs running Mavericks and an iPhone and iPad both running iOS 7. I can't delete old WiFi accounts with no password that I no longer wish to connect to. Every time I delete them in System Preferences, they keep coming back. I've disabled iCloud Keychain, deleted the SystemConfiguration folder, then when I reenable and RESET iCloud Keychain, the WiFi networks come back.

I am having the same problem which causes my computer to keep connecting to an unsecured network in the area. I have deleted the same networks out of my advanced network settings multiple times now and they keep coming back. Can anyone help?

Impossible to find details of old skype account

I just received an email from a [e-mail removed for privacy and security] about a skype account where the credit balance will be made inactive if I don't use it soon. However, if I try to log into skype using that MS account, it tells me there is no skype account in that name.
I have tried resetting the account password but the skype recovery does not recognise the email either.
One part of the system know about this old skype account but the rest of it doesn't.
Well done, guys.

Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going 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. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPhone and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password.

How to delete old emails quickly?

How to delete old emails quickly?

If you have an IMAP account (eg, Gmail) that another computer also has access to, or that you have webmail access for, the quickest way is probably to delete them on that computer rather than the iPad. If you must delete them directly from the iPad, you can click Edit at the top of the screen, highlight the emails that you want to delete (click the box at the left of each) then click Delete at the bottom.

Re: How can I disconnect skype account ?

Hi, I have 2 Skype accounts, one for my laptop and one for my pc desktop. I wish to use only one my pc. to save a confusion I wish to delete the other. how do I go about it?
Gentle help would be appreciated, thanks.

Hi, pegalap, and welcome to the Community,
Skype's policy is that accounts are not deleted once they are created. This is in place so no one else can use an account name which you have created. An account which you no longer intend to use is simply abandoned; remove all personally identifiable information and any saved payment methods and simply stop using it. More information here: 'Can I delete my Skype account?'
As an aside, do you know that you can sign on to a single account from either your desktop or your laptop?

Elaine

Deleting my Skype account... not possible!

I want to delete my Skype account. The reasons are many, but the main reason is that it simply doesn't work; I can't install the program, Skype claims I don't have internet connection (but how can I be here then!?), and it's utterly impossible to get in contact with support (only numerous FAQ sites). I have no more patience! I don't want to waste more time here.
But getting out of the claws of Skype/Microsoft/Google is not that easy...
When I search for 'delete my account' it says that I can remove all my personal information in my profile, so that people can't contact me (as I can't download the Skype program there is no risk of that!). But no, I can't delete my name, my email, my country and press 'save'. It wants me to fill out the fields again! So, at the end, my name, email etc. will forever and ever be kept at Skype. Deleting or even changing my account is apparently not an option.
I know my harsh words will not delete my account - when I am dead and gone the account will still remain.
Only I hope this will prevent others from creating an account - they have to know that their membership of Skype will last forever...

Hi, TorresAlmerco,
Do you wish assistance, or as stated in this instruction, 'Can I delete my Skype account?' , to request your account be removed from the search directory? Having read both of your posts, I am confused. Please clarify.
I have run into this same problem when making amendments to my profile details. Please try changing your profile settings from within the Skype software rather than signing on from the website.
Please advise; I am subscribed to both of your threads.
Thank you,
Elaine
