how can I delete an old Apple account and transfer it to a new one?

Welcome to the Apple community.
You can delete an existing account from your device and create a new one and start using it. But I'm not sure what you mean by transfer.

HT4759 How can i delete an old iCloud account and start using my own using my Apple ID? If I don't have the old password??

How can i delete an old iCloud account and start using my own using my Apple ID? If I don't have the old password??

If your device is signed into an old iCloud ID that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library). When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

How can I remove Classic 9.2.2 and only use my 10.3.9?

How can I remove Classic 9.2.2 and only use my 10.3.9? Is it as simple as deleting the Classic Applications Folder and the System Folder?

Hi JEF55!
If you are sure that you no longer want or need OS 9, you can remove it with the procedure below.
This is the method that cornelius posted, but the restart step, which is sometimes necessary, was omitted.
In the HD folder, open the folder titled System Folder with the 9 on it.
Not the one titled System, with the X.
Select all of the contents (Command + A keys), and move to the Trash.
Open the folder titled Applications (Mac OS 9).
Select all of the contents (Command + A keys), and move to the Trash
Restart the Mac.
The empty folders can then be moved to the Trash.

How can I change my old Apple ID? I have a new one created but can't deleted the old one it's gray and u can't tap on it?

I'm able to use the new one even tho the old one is there? But can't delete the old one because it's frayed out n can't tap on it to change it to the new one

You will need to use that old Apple ID and password to update any apps you purchased using that account. So you will either need to recover that Apple ID, which if you forgot the password you should be able to reset here:

or you will need to delete all those apps and repurchase them using your current Apple ID.

I have transferred itunes and library using home sharing. How do I 'turn off' the old computer and just use the new one? home sharing requires both to be on at the moment.

I have transferred my itunes content and playlists to a new computer using home sharing. Now I want to use my new computer only, so need to 'turn off' the old one. What do i do?

Hello shiv99,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have used Home Sharing to play the music from one computer on another, but now you would like to only use the new computer. It sounds as though you have set up the content to share between computers, but have not actually I’m ported the media from the old computer to the new one. I would suggest following the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article to import you music from the old computer to the new one. After that process is complete, you can turn off Home Sharing if you would like and the content will be in the iTunes library on your new computer.

Have a great day,

How can I reformat my old mac air, since I have the new one

How can I reformat my old mac_book_air, since I have the new one?

I believe that would be because the usernames on the two computers are different. You will have to change the ownership of everything you copy over from the old computer or change the username on the new computer so it's the same as the one on the old computer. Doing this is a bit complcated:
OS X: How to change user account name or home directory name
Changing file ownership is a bit easier. If you have copied all the files from the old computer into the Home folder of the new computer then do this:
To fix Home folder permissions
Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the command line prompt enter or paste the following command line:
sudo chown -R `id -un`:`id -gn` ~
Press RETURN. You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed.

HT204053 how can i delete a defunct Apple ID from iCloud. It controls my access to iCloud and I can't change it. I do have a current Apple ID and Password in iTunes, App Store and everywhere else.

I have a Mac desk top and and iPad, a current Apple ID and Password and gmail address. Mac says can't access icloud be cause of a problem with my gmail address. I click to fix it and it asks for a password for my OLD yahoo account, whick I don't have. BTW, this is all set up on my iPad but the account is not verified.....round and round she goes! What can I do next?

If the old ID (Yahoo address) was an earlier version of your current ID (Gmail address), try recreating your old ID from your new ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. Then enter the password for your current ID when your Mac prompts you for your Yahoo ID.

HT204053 how can i delete icloud e-mail address and create another one?

i made a mistake when created the icloud e-mail address and want to replace that with some other icloud e-mail (not existing yet). how can i do that?

You can't, without setting up a whole new iCloud account attached to another AppleID.
You can setup an email alias instead: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

HT201269 How can i transfer sent email from my old iphone to the new one?

Trying to figure out how to transfer sent email from my old iphone 4 to my new iphone 5s. Anyone have any idea?

If you have a POP account, this will not happen. If you have an IMAP or Exchange account signing in as the other poster stated will work. So, it depends on what type of account you have.

How do I delete an old Apple ID and still update apps purchased when I was using it?

How do I delete an old Apple ID and still update apps purchased when I was using it?

One, you cannot delete an Apple ID, all you can do is stop using it and let it fade away.
Two, apps are permanently tied to an aPple ID and can never be transferred to another. You must use that same ID to update an app, or delete the app and repurchase/download under another ID.

HI, I need your help. How can I delete all data, when I do not have the special security code, which I didn´t remember ? I also think, that I never create this code before. But I cannot put my settings back.

You must remember the code, if you can't then take the phone and proof of purchase to an Apple Store.
