How to remove duplicate iCloud accounts

Hello! I just got the iPhone 5. I set up iCloud on my phone but my contacts and calendar stuff weren't syncing, so I synced my info through iTunes
the old fashioned way. My contacts and calendar events are all good but now for some reason my mailboxes are screwed up! I somehow have multiple inboxes but I only have ONE iCloud account. Under accounts, on the Mailboxes page, it shows one account called iCloud and one called my email address (me.com). ***? What did I do and how do I reverse this? It's not the end of the world but I'd rather not have my mail all screwed up like this. My last iPhone was the 3G, this whole iCloud thing is confusing. Thanks in advance.

Have you tried turning notes syncing off, restarting then trying again.

    i just bought from a second hand ip4s from a guy ,who can not remember his iclould account that why my phone once start up that makes me stuck with activation so would anyone give me some support  to resolve this problem .

    Then return the phone & get your money back, because you will not be able to re-activate this phone, & Apple can't/won't help you.
    If you are unable to return it, all you'll own is a useless phone.

    Check that you don't have more than one account in your contacts, such as 'iCloud' and 'On My Phone'.

    How do I remove an iCloud account without using password?

    There is no way if Find my iPhone is turned on. You must know the Apple ID and password. This is Activation Lock, an antitheft feature of iOS 7. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818

  • How can i remove my icloud account from my sons ipad?

    can i remove my icloud account from my sons ipad?  I just discovered he is getting all of my text messages on his ipad!

    You can, but that isn't why he's getting your text messages.  That's being caused by using the same Apple ID for iMessage.  Have him go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  To avoid getting each other's FaceTime calls, have him do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
    Note: you can still share the same ID for other services such as your iTunes store account even though you are using different IDs for iMessage and FaceTime.

  • How to change my iCloud account with only access to the Apple ID

    Hello everyone
    Im using my previous company ipad and i dont have access to the registered iCould account.
    How to change my icloud account to a new email account that i own.
    I have access to the Apple ID Account but i dont have access to the iCloud account in it.
    The Security Question was made by the tech admin of the company not by me, so not even that way its possible.
    Thank You in advance,
    Frederico

    I wish Apple improves this Security measures so that it lets remove features with both logins, Apple or iCloud credentials.
    Also the iCloud needs improvements, it should use the Apple ID not some other different login. The email part of icloud should be in iCloud but most people don't use iCloud mail so the rest of the features should be in the same email credentials as Apple ID.
    This way im not sure if i take the risk on Restoring the iPad, i could end up beeing locked out of my own device.
    All this hierarchic credentials are confusing. I would only need the Apple ID that is being used on the iPad to clean it up or turn off options like iCloud account currently on the device.

    Reset your iCloud ID password (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5787).  After doing so you will need to change all your devices to the new password.

  • My daughter has an iPhone and some how we share an iCloud account and she's getting all my texts and contacts. I can't find where to uncheck her phone number on my phone account. Please help

    My daughter and I both  have an iPhone and some how we share an iCloud account and she's getting all my texts and contacts. I can't find where to uncheck her phone number on my phone account so she doesn't get all my texts and contacts. Please help

    Hi Shellyk,
    Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and make sure that only your personal email addresses are listed under the individual phone number.Remove the "shared" iCloud email address.
    For the Contacts, if you are syncing them via iCloud and you both have the same iCloud account, you will both have the same Contact list.
    Cheers,

  • How do I change Icloud accounts on a device that is used?

    So my wife has a used iphone that was given to her by her sister. I can't figure out how to change her icloud account from her sister's to mine. The username is locked in and we don't have access to the current account that is on there. How do I switch the 2?

    You will need her password to delete her account, so that you can add yours. Please see also "Removing a device from a previous owner’s account": http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4515?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • How to delete an icloud account

    how to delete an icloud account (Erase, Delete, Remove fromall servers, Purge all data !)?

    Sign out of iCloud (in System Preferences) then sign into the new account. None of your existing data in the old account will be availabe, and none of your purchases will transfer, if that matters make backups before you do this.

  • Remove/delete Icloud account in apple servers

    Hello everyone
    I would like to know how to cancel denititely icloud account from apple´s servers
    Thanks

    From what other people have posted it appears you can't. Just delete any contents you don't want up there and sign out on your Macs.devices. After all it's not costing you anything.
    Note that when you sign out, if you have been syncing any data such as calendars or contacts they will be removed from your Mac (though not the server) so you will want to transfer them to 'On My Mac' - see the second set of numbered instructions here for moving calendars.

  • I changed my apple id but the apple id for icloud did not change on my mac.  How do I get icloud account information to change and match my new apple id?

    I changed my apple id but the applie id for icloud did not change on my mac in system preferences. 
    I have changed my apple id on system preferences under users and groups but the icloud preferences don't pick up the change.
    I restarted my computer, and still no change.
    I have been using icloud under my old apple id for mail calendars and notes.
    How do I get icloud account information to change on my mac's system preferences and match my new apple id?
    I am missing something.
    Please help.  Thanks.

    Thank you Roger, your solution gave me the courage to sign out of Systems Preferences.  The pop up told me it was going to delete my contact and other information from my mac, so I was hesitant to do that.  Well I did as you directed and I was able to sign in with my new apple id and I did not lose the information the pop up threatened I was going to.  So again thank you.  It is the little things that make a big difference sometimes.
