HT201303 How do I delete my apple account?

I don't want my Apple ID anymore because I have two and I want to delete one?
Please help!!!

Hi Catherine,
You cannot delete an Apple account. Why do you want to delete it? Why not just stop using the one you don't want to use anymore? Just rememeber, purchases are forever tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with, so if you have Apps under the first ID, you probably want to go into that ID under Manage your Apple ID, and change the password to the same password you have on your current ID.
That way, when you are asked for a password to update apps going forward, it won't matter which ID is asking for the password, because it will be the same.
Cheers,
GB

  • 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?

    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.

    You can't delete an account, you can only remove personal from it and stop using it - any content that you downloaded with the account will remain tied to the account.

  • How can I delete an Apple Account someone made using my gmail That has already been verified??

    Someone used my gmail and I accidentally verified it and cannot take my email off of it.
    I reset the password so now I only have access.
    How can I delete this?

    HI,
    Just because and Apple ID email is not verified does not mean the account is not created. (usable may be another matter)
    Are you trying to Login here with the Manage option.
    This will take you to the Apple ID page and tell you if there is an Verified Email as the Apple ID and whether there is a recovery email in use.
    There is a menu on the left to sort any Recovery email and set Security Questions.
    You are most likely to need to verify the Apple ID you were trying to create.

  • HT1267 How do I delete an Apple account from my iphone

  • How to i delete my apple account

    i dont need this apple ID so how can i delete this account?

    zuhrah --
    You remind me of me six years ago.  Really wanting to help, but sometimes jumping in too soon with an answer that seems right, but to the more experienced people here, not so much.
    You can, of course,establish a new alias here (requires a new valid email address.)  Or, you can take a deep breath, and take a little time to learn more here. 
    When I first came here, I was too afraid to load on any new app or OS.  I had no money, but somehow  managed to find someone to help me for very little payment.  I learned every thing I know through reading these forums. And now I've actually replaced the RAM in five Macs!
    Anyone who WANTS to help is welcome here.  Just make sure your advice is as accurate as possible.

  • How do I delete an apple account without knowing the password?

    My daughter has another persons apple ID account on her phone and we cannot contact the other person to obtain the password to remove their Apple ID on the phone.  Is there any way we can delete/remove this account from her phone without the password?  Any help would be very much appreciated.  Thank you.

    If you mean the iPhone is logged into the AppStore or iTunes under
    another account, just sign out and then sign back in with your daughter's
    ID.
    If you mean the iPhone will not allow any access because it is locked to someone else's
    ID, that is a security feature of iOS 7. You must have the other person remove
    their account or provide their ID info.

  • How do I delete my apple account to make a new one

    im having trouble logging into my apple account on my iphone and now i would like to just detlete the account and start over and make a new one

    Apple IDs cannot be deleted. Any purchases made with that Apple ID are linked to it permanently, cannot be transfered and will therefore be lost.
    Have you tried resetting your password?
    If you choose to contiinue with a new account, you can simply abandon the old. If you are unable to sign in, you will not be able to remove any personal information on the account. You will also not be able to reuse the same email address for the new ID.
    I suggest trying to recover you current account.
    What have you tried so far?

  • How can I delete my apple account permanently?

    I am no longer using apple devices so I want to delete my Apple ID, but all I am seeing is sign out option. There is no delete account option. Please advice.

    You can’t do this yourself. If you really want it deleted(not just left inactive), click here and contact Apple.

  • I have deleted my email account that was the same as my apple id. How do i delete the apple account off of my ipad so i can rest everything? my password that i had isnt working either.

    I have deleted my old email account that is connected with my apple id. I created a new apple id with a new email but my old email is still on my ipad that requires the password that i had with that account. It says incorrect password but I know it is right. I need help because I am trying to sell it and I need it to reset my ipad

    Settings > iTunes and App Store
    Tap on your Apple ID
    Sign Out
    Sing back in with the correct ID
    NOTE:  All apps purchased under the old ID will forever be tied to that ID, so you'll need to remember it if you want to update those apps.  Or, you can delete those apps and redownload them under the new ID. 

  • How do i delete my iCloud account from my iPad with an updated Apple ID?

    How do i delete my iCloud account from my iPad with an updated Apple ID?
    It requires i log into FindMyiPad to delete the iCloud account however the Apple ID has changed therefore the username/password no longer exists.
    This is just sending me in circles to log into to a non-existant apple id with no password to delete my iCloud so i can log in with my updated apple ID.

    Settings/iTunes and App Store log out then log in with new ID.  you might want to change ID in iMessage, FaceTime and Siri and delete the cloud account and create one with new ID.  remember apps are forever linked to the ID used to download them and can only be updated with that ID

    Hello,
    When I first created an itunes account I used the e mail address from my ISP.
    I now want all of my dealings on itunes and these pages etc to be done under my .mac / mobile me details.
    How do I delete my apple ID referring to my isp e mail address.
