HT204053 hello i have tried to make a new apple id. because my daughter knew my old password and i wanted to change the email address.

please can you help me delete my old apple id?
[email protected]  i have forgot my password after trying to change it, after i found out my daughter had been using it.
i have now set up a new one.

You cannot delete an id.
Why would you?
All purchases made with that account will always be tied to that account.  Your computers will need to be authorized for this account and you will have to update any apps using that account.
Just change your password and the email address associated with the account.
You should not leave your account info here.  Apple is not here.  We are all itunes users just like you

    I want to change the email address used as rescue email for my security questions. But I can't remember the answers to the security questions and I dont have access to the rescue email anymore. Please help.

    -If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com.  Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE:  This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
    -If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address.  Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security.  You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

  • I want to change the email address I have for I tunes

    Can someone tell me how I change my email address for Itunes?

    Hi thomas,
    Actually if I am getting it right, that makes it easier. You have your Apple/iCloud ID as an @me.com ID. You have your iTunes account using a gmail Apple ID. If that premise is not correct, then just let me know and we will continue to drill down. If it is right, then I would suggest the following:
    Your iTunes library lives on your Mac, and you have built it using your @gmail.com Apple/iTunes ID. To be able to use that library under your @me.com Apple ID, you would need to do the following:
    1. Go to the iTunes Store on your Mac, and if the @gmail.com ID is signed in, sign it out
    2. Sign into the iTunes Store using your @me.com ID
    3. Set up your Billing info
    4. With the @me.com ID still signed in, click on Store on the menu at the top of the screen, and click on Authorize this Computer. This will authorize your newly created iTunes account to the Mac
    5. You now have made your @me.com ID your Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID
    6. On your device, sign out of the iTunes & App store, and sign back on with your @me.com Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID (Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on ID)
    7. Go into Manage Your Apple ID and sign on your @gamail.com ID - change the password on that ID to match the password on your @me.com ID
    Now you can hook up your device to your Mac, and sync any Music, Apps, or any other purchases from your iTunes library to your device.
    Although you could also sign the @me.com ID out of iTunes and sign the @gmail.com address into iTunes and download music directly to your device, it is far easier to sync those @gmail.com purchases via a normal sync process. Here's why - once you sign on a different iTunes ID to your device and download using that ID, the device becomes associated with that iTunes ID, and you cannot associate a different ID to it for 90 days. So, to avoid any loss of usage for your new ID, it is just easier to sync any previous ID purchases directly via iTunes.
    You can now purchase and download any iTunes or App Store items directly to your device (OTA) using your new ID.
    With the passwords being the same on both IDs, you will save yourself a lot of annoyance going forward when you need to update apps on your device. Whether they were purchased under your old ID or under you new ID, it won't matter. You won't even have to pay any attention to which ID is displaying when you are doing updates...just put in the common password, and you are good to go!
    I have an @me.com Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID that I have been using since I got my iPhone 4. However, prior to that, I was using a different ID. I can tell you that I have had a totally seamless transition from the one to the other by using the methodology outlined above. It's like my Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID has always been my @me.com one. I still go into my old Apple/iTunes ID to keep it up to date (password-wise) with my @me.com one, but aside from that, I don't use it for anything anymore. The email address and billing information is totally out of date on it. But it really doesn't matter since it is what I call an "Archived" Apple/iTunes ID for me now.
    Hope this is what you are wanting to do. But as I said, if I have missed something, just post back and we will go at it again!

    Hello,
    My old emails address which I have used as my apple id for 10 years is being made redundant. I have changed the email address to a new gmail one and this is my new apple id. But my iMac has not recognised this. It keeps saying it wants the password for my old email address. I have seen some advice on these forums which suggest signing out of iCloud and then back in again. But when I start doing this it asks me if i want all the photos deleted that have not been downloaded onto the mac.
    I have had an iCloud account for quite sometime and I'm afraid of losing everything in my cloud if i sign out and sign in with a new id.
    Is this fear realistic?
    I know I can change back to my old email, sign out and then sign in wight he new one...
    Please help!

    This did not work for me.  My old email account for iCloud still pops up on my screen every time I open my macbook.  I've deleted it, reset it, every thing I can think of and it still shows up.  I think six months of this is more than enough time to wait.

  • I just got a new iPod nano, and I'm really excited about it, but I have a problem. A long time ago, I changed the email address on my account, and now all the songs from that account are gone. I don't know how to get them back. Can someone please help me?

    This is really frustrating, I've been trying to get my songs back for hours

    When you say "account," do you mean your iTunes library, because your iTunes library is what is on your computer?  Your iTunes library does not have an email address.  An account that is related to iTunes is your Apple ID (which is an email address) and you use it as your user name to sign in to the iTunes Store, to make purchases.  Changing your Apple ID will not make songs disappear from your computer's iTunes library.
    If you had an Apple ID and used it to make song purchases from the iTunes Store, and then started using a different Apple ID, you should be able to re-download the songs purchased with the old Apple ID.  In iTunes, sign in to the iTunes Store using your OLD Apple ID (and password).  That may not be your current email address, but Apple uses it as your user name, so it does not matter.
    On the iTunes Store Home screen, click on Purchased under QUICK LINKS.  This takes you do the Purchased screen, where you can re-download previous song purchases (for that Apple ID) at no cost. 
    NOTE:  If those song purchases are from more than a few years ago, you may also need to authorize your computer to play (and sync) songs for your old Apple ID. 
    For songs that were not purchased from the iTunes Store, if they are also gone, you cannot get them back unless you have a backup (or they are still loaded on your old iPod).
    If that's not what you mean by "changed the email address on my account," please post back with more details.

  • I am trying to change the email address associated with my existing account to free up my university email address for use in obtaining Creative Cloud.

    I am trying to change the email address associated with my existing account to free up my university email address for use in obtaining Creative Cloud.  Every time I go to the account settings of my existing account (which currently uses my university email, as I set it up years ago and had no idea it'd eventually cause problems), I enter a different email to use for that account but I continuously receive an error message saying "account changes cannot be saved."  It makes me think that it's because the email isn't verified (funny, it actually is verified since it has been the alternate email on the old account for years), but when I click the "send verification email" nothing happens (that is, no email is sent to that other email address).
    Anyway, my university is now requiring that faculty create new accounts using our university email addresses in order to register/use Creative Cloud.  Am I able to delete my old account, or can anyone help me actually change the email address associated with my old account without getting a "changes can't be saved" error?

  • I want to delete my icloud-account from my iphone 5 and then register again, because I want to change my email-address/account name. What would be the steps to follow? How do I make sure I do not lose any information stored on/in my iphone 5?

    I want to delete my icloud-account from my iphone 5 and then register again, because I want to change my email-address/account name. What would be the steps to follow? How do I make sure I do not lose any information stored on/in my iphone 5?

    You would have to delete the existing iCloud account and create a wholly new one - you cannot change the @icloud.com email address of the one you already have.  To make a new one, you will also need an new AppleID as any AppleID can only have one iCloud account associated with it.
    Deleting the account will not delete anything off your device (if prompted for things like contacts, choose to keep them).  You will have to sync everything anew with the new account as you cannot move your sync'd content, your old backups or anything else from one iCloud account to another.  You will have to set up sync again and let it sync to the new account, and then make new backups to the new account as well.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Once you have created a rescue address, you cannot delete it, nor can you change it to the same address as used by your ID. There are numerous providers you can get additional email addresses from, such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Google etc etc.

    If it is showing off line, either the battery is dead, the SIM has been removed or the iPhone has been restored. Report it to you carrier. Some offer blacklisting. You can also send a remote wipe to the phone via iCloud. There was also the option to send you an email if the phone is located when you were in Find My iPhone. Report it to law enforcement, change the passwords on all accounts that were on the device. Did you have a passcode on it?

  • HT1920 I am trying to sign on an old Apple ID through iTunes and it is likely that the email address I used has been closed down. I can not remember the password due to using a new apple ID I frequently use. How else can I retrieve my password or sign in?

    I have an old Apple ID I have been trying to log in to retrieve permission for the songs I have bought for my iTunes. However due to it being an old ID, I have forgotten the password and from what I can remember, the email address I used for security was closed down. I am aware that I can go through security questions and when asked for my D.O.B, I have a feeling I never adjusted my settings in the Apple ID account therefore can not get past that question either.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    I have purchased music, apps, or books with multiple Apple IDs. How can I get all of this content onto my iOS device?

    First, you need to copy all of your purchased content so it is on the same Mac or PC with iTunes. This computer should be the one you sync your device with. For more information on how to move your content, see these articles:
    Mac:  iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between computers
    PC:  iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers
    Next, authorize your computer to play content with each Apple ID in iTunes. Once your computer is authorized for all your content, it can be synced to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
