HT1918 I need to disable an Apple Account!

I can not disable my apple account or get into it. I have two accounts and changed my email to the new account. When I try to get into the old account w/out a password the system doesn't recognise my birthday. How do you talk to a person for help? The account keeps coming up on my Iphone and Ipad and wants the old password. I would just like to disable the account and just can't get into it.. HELP

Simply stop using it.

HT201303 How do I set up my iPhone so that I have to enter my password each time I need to access my apple account? Previously my account name was always stored and I only had to enter my password each time but now it never asks for a password

How can I set up my 4s so that when I need to access my apple account to either download an app, update an app or buy something then I need to just put in my password? This is how my 3s worked but the 4 s seems to have stored all my details so I don't need to log in. My young son sometimes plays games and I dont want him to accidentally buy stuff. If I log out then each time I need to go back in I have to put in all my account info. Not just my password.
Any ideas?

Depending upon what version of iOS that you have on it then you might have a Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password setting on it - if you do then set it to 'Immediately'

HT4436 Why is my daughter receiving my text messages on her itouch when I send them from my iphone? We are both on icloud so how can I separate the two? Do I need another icould or apple account??

Why is my daughter receiving my text messages on her itouch when I send them from my iphone? We are both on icloud so how can I separate the two? Do I need another icould or apple account??

It's happening because you are using the same Apple ID for iMessage. You don't need to do anything with your iCloud account to fix this. You should create a separate Apple ID for her device to use with iMessage and FaceTime. (You can continue to share the same ID for purchasing from the iTunes and App stores if you wish; it doesn't need to be the same as the ID you use for other services.) Once you've done this, on her device go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the new ID. Do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
Another caution is that if you share and iCloud account with her, any data you both sync with the account such as contacts, will be merged and the merged data will appear on both devices. If you don't want to end up with each other's contacts, calendars, etc. on your devices, you should have separate iCloud accounts to. If you want to make this change, go to Settings>iCloud on her device and tap Delete Account. (This only deletes the account from the device, not from iCloud.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data be sure to choose Keep On My iPod. Then set up a new iCloud account with her new ID, turn on iCloud data syncing again, and when prompted choose Merge.

My grandma is a new apple user and she needs help making an apple account.

my grandma is a new apple user and she needs help making an apple account.

She should call Apple support or visit the Genius Bar at an Apple store (make an appointment first at http://apple.com/retail). They will walk her through the process.

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 need to use the email adress in another account but I always recieve the massage that thsi mail has been used for another account verification

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.

Do i need to disable my Apple ID/account due to Ipad been stolen?

Hi,
My Ipad been stolen. To prevent and criminal activities being conducted using my Ipad and Apple ID, how do I block it? thanks.

Use Find my iPhone. It allows you to lock/ or delete your ipad information. You will have to log into icloud online, and use the apple id you used with your ipad. Then, locate it and delete your ipad information or lock it.
Tutorial:
Go to icloud.com
log in to your apple id you used with your ipad
click on find my iphone
select the "delete ipad"

I need to merge my apple accounts to get proper function of iCloud and iWork apps

I like so many people now have two apple ids. Becase I was a mobile me subsriber and I had a itunes account. The migration from me.com to icloud.com created another apple id.
So if I want my apps and music i have purchased over years i have to use one id and if I want my mail (years of messages)and calander and the storage for which i have paid for i need the second apple id.
Apple allows you to sign into icloud with one id and the itunes store with another which although is a pain did work.
Until I bought the pages app for my ipad in the app store with the account that all of my itunes purchases are contained in. For me the major reason of this app purchase is to get my documents into icloud and readable on my phone.
Problem: Since the app was purchased with an apple id other than the icloud id icloud dosent know it exist so it wont sync the files to icloud. When im logged into icloud and click on the iwork section i get prompted to get pages which i alredey have and when it takes my to the app store it tells me that i have downloaded it. An annoying cycle of not "just working". *** Apple?
Will you please remedy this situation by allowing me to merge my ids. And please let me use an id (user name)of my choice. Why does it have to be an email address?

You are really talking to the wrong people here. We are just other users like yourself, posing questions and answers to issues. You should contact Apple at the appropriate phone number on this page. Possibly they can straighten it out.
Best of luck.

My Ipod keeps telling me that i need to verify my apple account how do i do that?

Well my Ipod keeps on telling me that i need to verify my account and i did but now it's telling me that i n eed to something else but i don't know what it's about at all. Can someone help me.

Why am I sometimes asked to verify my Apple ID by email?
When you create a new Apple ID or make certain changes to your account, Apple will require you to sign in by following the link in a verification email. This is to help protect your identity and keep your account secure. Some Apple services, such as FaceTime and GameCenter, require email validation.
How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.

New phone need to add to apple account to share music

my son got an att motorola phone
how do i add it to the family itunes account to share

You do not.
Apple has nothing to do with a Motorolla device.
Your son can copy media files from the computer to his new phone, if it supports those formats, but this has nothing to do with iTunes or Apple.

Apple Account setup for severely disabled individual

I have a severely disabled 19 year old son who has a new iPad which is primarily intended to be used as a switch operated communication device. He is very keen to access iTunes and the AppStore so I need to setup an Apple account in his name but because his iPad is accessible to other people in his life, I also need to have control over any purchases that are made. Since my son is deemed to be an adult in law, I wonder if anyone can tell me if it is possible to setup an Apple account in his name, but as a family member, with family sharing, linked to my account?

Hey bryanfern,
It is certainly possible to set up an Apple ID for your son using this page -
Apple - My Apple ID
You can also set up Family Sharing to include him. This article explains how -
Family Sharing - Apple Support
One point you mention is having control over account spending. In a family sharing group, the organizer agrees to pay for all purchases made by members of the group. For members of the group under 18 (this age may vary by location) the Ask to Buy feature is available. It is not available for members over that age, however. See this article -
Request and make purchases with Ask to Buy - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,
Brett L

I originally set up my apple account by spelling my email address incorrectly. how can i change it? it says that i need to verify from the email they sent but the email address is incorrect!

Help. I need to change my apple account and don't have access to my old email, how can i change this - how do i verify that it is me.

You set up email accounts on the iPad in Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Add Account. You have a choice of some of the most popular email providers in the setup list or you can select Other at the bottom.
Tap on the provider that is applicable and begin the setup on the iPad.

Two iphones,one apple account and icloud backup?

my wife and I both have iphones with only one apple account, I did the icloud back up on my phone and everything is fine, but when I did hers it shared all of our contacts, now I have two diiferent accounts set up for itunes, do I need to create another apple account for her phone and can we delete the contacts that were put on our phones without losing anything else? Thanks

If you are sharing an iCloud account do not start deleting contacts on either device. Doing so will delete them from iCloud and the other device and they will be lost. To prevent merged data like this you need to have different iCloud accounts on each device. You can continue to use the same ID for purchasing from the iTunes and App stores; it does not need to be the same as your iCloud ID. To fix this, first decide which phone will be getting the new iCloud account. Then on that phone, go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone. After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The other phone will not be effected by this.) Next, set up a new iCloud account on this phone using a different Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On. When prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to this new account. At this point you will have two different iCloud accounts, one for each phone, with identical data on them.
You will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the other person's data from your account (such as deleting your wife's contacts from your iCloud account, and vice versa). These changes will be reflected on each phone. When finished you will have individual iCloud accounts with just your own data on them.

Can two or more devices use the same Apple account with different cell phone numbers. I want to use FaceTime on a my 5s and my wife wants her own FaceTime on a new iPad Air with its own cell number but be linked with me with iCloud to share music

I have a 5s with an apple account and wife has a iPad air with its own cell number. Does the iPad need it's own apple account to use it's own phone number so her FaceTime calls are not sent to my phone. We want to be able to link each device to iCloud and share music, photos, ect. iPad iMessage and FaceTime have my cell number activated.
