How to un disable my apple account

I disabled my iTunes account as I didn't know the security questions, how do I unlock it?

You might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
You might then need to log out of your account on any devices by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Store on iOS 6+) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on them.
If you can't remember your answers, then if have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 (you can also use this link if you can't get your account enabled via the above)
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

    I accidentally set up two accounts.  One account with my old e-mail address which I've been using for years and has all of my purchases on it.  Now I have a new account with my current e-mail address. How do I disable this new account?  I need to disable the new e-mail address account so that I can add it as an additional e-mail to my old account.  THEN, how do I make this new e-mail address my primary e-mail for this old account?

    Did yoo go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in?

  • How can I delete my Apple account

    Par for the course with so many companies - "Delete My Account" is virtually impossible to find. How can I delete my Apple account? I don't want yet another account that people can hack and buy stuff fraudulently. Thanks. But really, these companies should be forced to let people know how they can delete accounts if&when they want to.

    I wholeheartedly agree. It seems rather pedestrian given that *supposedly* lesser sites/brands allow 'opting out gracefully' at any time - most with the ability to scrub everything clean and start again.
    It's annoying enough that Apple fail to contribute much practical help here, but to obfuscate the fact it's also impossible to leave is rather unbecoming to say the least - just see the number of questions on account deletion etc.
    So in short then: spending 1000s of $£¥€ or whatever on the 'best tech' on the planet and still no ability to do a basic account closure (or even a trace of Blu-Ray support even)...
    Nevermind. Clearly Apple feel that life in "The Village" is just so great that who in their right mind would want to go.
    Now repeat after me: "YOU ARE NOT A PERSON - YOU ARE NUMBER SIX!!"
    P.S. I wonder what the UK ICO would have to say about this?

    I upgraded to iPhone5 and I need to give my iPhon4 to my wife. How do I change the APPle account to her account?

    it might be better to completely restore the phone. hold down both the home and power buttons at the same time as soon as the screen shuts off let go of the power button but continue to hold the home button and in a few seconds you will get the connect iphone to itunes logo connect the phone to the computer while itunes is open you will get a popup on the computer screen saying that itunes has detected a phone in recovery mode follow the prompts on the screen and you will have a fully factory restored iPhone 4

    You can not delete an Apple account. You will have to use a different email address to setup a new account if they are in conflict with each other.

    So, if you mean to download a free app, you need a form of payment. There is no way to do so without a credit or gift card.

    I have a co worker that set us an apple id with our business credit card.  i would like to know how i can disable this account so that things can not be charged to the account being that this person no longer works here?

    You can go to https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/  and Change the password if you know the Security information. 
    If you want to terminate the account, any and all content downloaded with the account will no longer be accessible.   As content is permanently tied to the Apple ID that originally bought it or downloaded it.
    If you reall want to terminate the account you will need to contact Itunes Support and request the Id be disabled.
