How to remove your apple support communities accounts

as you can probably see, my name is quite random.... I misread the template for creating this apple supprt communities account and now my name is stuck as itunestroubleshooting.... I don't know what to do, I cannot delete it in my profile settings for some reason. Please help.

But I have all my iCloud stuff synced with this account..... should I create another account for the soul purpose of this community?

  • Is it possible to completely delete your Apple Support Communities account?

    Hello everybody,
    As the title states.

    It seems that complete deletion is impossible, but the next best thing would be to clear out your personal information, if that was your concern:
    1. Remove devices and other personal information from your Apple Support Community profile. This would be accomplished by editing your profile and privacy settings (e.g make the privacy settings as strict as possible).
    2. You'll notice your name and email address are not editable via the Apple Support Communities profile page. However, you can edit your name and email address used by Apple Support Communities from your Apple ID https://appleid.apple.com/
    To change these, login and click on the "Manage your Apple ID" and you will be able to change them via the "Name, ID and Emaill Addresss" link in the menu on the left. However, please note that any changes to your Apple ID affect your main Apple account (iTunes, iCloud, Apple Online Store, etc.)

  • Cannot create Apple Support Communities Account

    I have been trying, unsuccessfully, for the past few months to create an Apple Support Communities account.  Unfortunately, everytime I login with my AppleID I receive the following message:
    We're sorry. Your account could not be created due to system issues.
    Please contact Apple Support Communities with the information below to create your account.
    I then put in my e-mail address and explain the issue.  I have never once heard back from Apple, and the problem still persists.  In fact, I had to create a different AppleID entirely, just to create an account here to post this very topic!
    My AppleID is simply my .Mac/MobileMe email address...so I have no idea what is going on.  It would be really appreciated if someone from Apple would respond to this post, since nobody has every responded to the numerous emails sent out using the above.

    OK... is there a question here somewhere?

  • Deleting Apple Support Communities Account?

    Hi everyone,
    I have searched the forums and Google and so far have come to the conclussion that it's not possbile on my end to delete a ASC account, but is possible on the backend some how?
    I created a new account without realizing my friend was logged into to his iOS developer account, thus creating an account for him, with my username. No posts have been made under this account nor has any other activity taken place.
    Is it possible to have this account deleted? Or at least the username changed?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    I will say that the Hosts tend to have a small range of reasons that they will actually do this for.
    In the cases where people create an Alias that is the same as their Email address or something similar that makes them a little too indentifiable the the Hosts might do it for Privacy reasons.
    Obviously that includes things like listing yourself as a partnership (JanetandJohn for Instance) and there may be an issue over ownership of that ID/Alias.
    To Be Clear - we are talking about changes to the Alias  associated with the Apple Support Communities rather than anything about the actual  Apple ID you are using to Login.
    If you had an Apple ID that was used with an Alias created fro the old Version of the Software  used to run the Forums then normally you are unable to change it. (it will be a hosts decision as to whether they feel a change would be possible.  It may pay to check any likely Alias you do want to use is not in use already. Use the Search feature.)
    The Original Poster  has the easiest time as he can just create a New ID and Alias if he wants to use the Support Communities.
    I can see he may feel honour bound top sort things out for his Friend's account.
    If there are bits of your Apple ID that you can change this Apple Page may help.

  • Does anyone know how to delete an Apple Support Community account/profile?

    Hey Guys,
    Thanks for taking the time to take a look at this post!
    I need to delete my apple support community account because I have responded to some questions and asked a few myself in the past and now even though I have fully removed myself from those posts and changed my e-mail preferences so that those preferences are set to not receiving any more emails, I am still receiving emails!!!!
    So i just want to delete my account now..
    Many thanks in advance!!

    There is no way for you to delete the account. I suppose in dire circumstances a host could do it but it doesn't happen often.
    If the only reason you want to delete the account is because of the email you are getting from here, it can be stopped. SeeHighly annoyed here. for the way to stop them.

  • How to unsubscribe from Apple Support Communities?

    I can't take the volume of e-mails from Apple Support Communities. And the site is far too technical for me. What do I do to unsubscribe? Help!

    Thank you for an accurate and mature answer rather than Tom Wolsky's less than helpful reply.
    Here's a little hint 'Tom', linking the Search Page stopped being funny about eight years ago.    If you're not going to bother to help, don't bother to post just because you want to get your count up.

  • I want my apple support communities account deleted

    Hi everyone,
    I really want to delete my account as I haven't used it since 2009 and I don't like the usage of my name for privacy reasons. I would either like my ASC account completely deleted or at least my name changed and previous topic history deleted. I just don't feel conftorable floating my name around.
    Thanks, I would appreciate any answer at all.

    That information is not something you can easily take back.  Once you post something online, it can be impossible to take back entirely.  There are other sites that keep an archive of posts on this site, even if the moderators here do comply and remove your posts.
    I see nothing wrong with any of your posts - nothing embarrassing - and if you're just paranoid about having your name posted on a web site, note that I've been using my real name here very regularly since 2006 and have never had a problem with it.  There's nothing that a malicious party can do with the fact that you posted here a few times 2 years ago.
    Don't worry about it.

  • How to stop receiving Apple Support Communities messages

    Sick and tired of receiving dozens of messages.
    Not even able to send them to the junk box. These continue appearing like a cloud of locusts.
    Please, help !!!

    Unfortunately there is no unsubscribe from here so this needs to be fixed for the mails to stop.
    Usually the tech tip I wrote handles this issue if followed exactly as written. A lot if users will try to short-circuit the procedure or stop after they set the email preferences thinking that that is enough to fix it.
    As the tip states the email preferences only affect the future not what is happening now. So are you sure the actual notifications view is empty?
    If you look at the email you received it will indicate where it came from, a single post, a thread or a community. You can use that information to go to the particular area sending the email and turn it off  At the upper righthand side of the screen is an actions box. Make sure it says Receive email notifications. If it says Stop email notifications click it.
    If you still have problems a host can be notified to look at your account and try to fix the problem.
    regards

  • What is the use of points earned in apple support communities??

    what is the use of points earned in apple support communities??

    mende1      Valmojado, Toledo, Spain
    This solved my questionRe: How the heck do you get points on your apple support communities account?
    Jul 12, 2013 10:20 PM (in response to BMPU)
    To get points, you have to answer questions. If the user that created the post tested your solution and it worked, he/she (may) give you a "This solved my question". As you can see in the right part of this page, a solved question adds 10 points to your account. If you helped solve the problem, you receive 5 points. On a single thread, the original poster can only give 1 "This solved my question" and 2 "This helped me", so you can receive a total of 20 points.
    With these points, there are levels that you can see in this page > https://discussions.apple.com/static/apple/tutorial/reputation.html When you level up, you receive privileges like report posts, access to Community Calls... The most important level respecting to privileges is the level 6, that gives you access to a special forum called "The Lounge" (where you can talk about anything you want, complain about an user or report problems with the forum), and you also receive gifts from Apple and other privileges

  • Here's what changed in the 'Apple Support Communities Use Agreement'

    The terms for this website were revised 24 April 2014; they were previously revised 7 May 2013; they were previously revised 6 April 2011.
    If you'd like to know exactly what changed, see this 'diff', which shows exactly what changed. 
    Basically, Apple just added this (as points 12 and 13 to the 'General' section :
    If you provide any ideas, suggestions, or recommendations on this site regarding Apple’s products, technologies or services (“Feedback”), Apple may use such Feedback and incorporate it in Apple products, technologies, and services without paying royalties and without any other obligations or restrictions.
    For questions or problems regarding your Apple Support Communities account, please post a question in the Using Apple Support Communities forum, or email [email protected]
    For all versions, see Apple Support Communities Use Agreement
    Helpful?

    Thanks; I may be wrong of course, but I thought para. 12 was there all along and only 13 was added (which, FWIW, is an excellent idea in my humble opinion). Also, the ToU are available by clicking on the link at the bottom of this page here.

  • How to Prevent Apple Support Communities from Sending Me Emails?

    Hi,
    How I can I prevent the Apple Support Communities website / tool from sending me emails?
    I have disabled all emails in my profile settings (since about six months):
    Still,  Apple Support Communities keep sending me emails in increasing frequency:
    (It is the same account / username / email, I have triple checked that.)
    What options other than marking Apple as as spammer do I have left?
    Cheers

    Hi,
    Thank you – that (hopefully) resolves the issue!
    Note, that I came to Edit Preferences not through my Profile, but through the link in the "update emails" itself.
    The link in the emails (see screeshot) reads: You are receiving this email from Apple Support Communities. You can change your email preferences in your Apple Support Communities Profile.
    And the link leads to the "Edit Preferences" page (the "Manage Email Notifications" page is not visible / linked from "Edit Preferences")
    According to common "unsubscribe" practices in emails, I would expect that an "unsubscribe"-type of link leads me to a page where I can unsubscribe from the type of email I just received (and not unsusbcribe from 'additional potential future' emails or whatever you would call it in that case).
    Hence, this "unsubscribe" link in the email should either go to the Profile page, or the Manage Email Notifications (where I can actualy unsusbcribe), NOT to Edit Preferences.
    Hope, someone from Apple reads the above...
    ( Personally, I think the idea to split between past and future threads is a bad design in the first place )

  • 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!

  • Stop Apple Support Communities mailing?

    Hello.
    I want to know how to stop receiving emails each time there is a new message in the thread I posted on. I've switched off all the notifications, and yet I still receive 20-30 messages each day, not being able to do anything about it (not even cancelling my Apple Support Communities account, which seems not possible).
    Thank you very much.
