HT2623 Is there no way to permanently delete an alias email address from one apple id so its available for another apple id?

I have 2 apple id's (unfortunately), and the one i wanna get rid of has an icloud email address as an alias that i would like to use on my new apple id as a regular email. Is there any way to do this? I deleted the alias from my old account but its somehow still linked.

I'm afraid you can't transfer an alias (even if deleted) to another account, or make it into an ID itself; and once deleted it can never be reactivated.

HT5163 Is there any way to permanently delete and restore email messages from my IPad without erasing everything?

I am not familiar with IPad usage but wondered if there is a way to remove all my emails without removing everything else, ie: photos, songs..? Does a restore erase everything? Thanks!

I cannot delete an email address that was also an Apple ID for awhile. It keeps coming up as an "email return to" address on compose in gmail.
As a result, I removed all mention of it in my keychain and cancelled it in Google. I called Apple support and for awhile was able to use time
machine to restore it, then lost all my addresses again. My iPad mini has addresses on it but I'm concerned that if it syncs with my Macbook Air
the iPad addresses will disappear also. How can I prevent an unwanted sync?

Most items purchsed with your Apple ID can't be permantently deleted from the purchase history. However you can hide them.

How to delete an old email address from an Apple ID

We have a number of iPads, iPhones, iPods etc. These all share the same Apple ID. In the past I used an email address from BT which I no longer have access to and have forgotten the password to. We now have an active Apple ID which I have used for this iPad. I have tried to reset this iPad but it will not allow me to or to delete and update the iCloud backup as it asks for the old BT internet Apple ID password, even though the iPad is logged in with the new active one. Please advise how I can delete the old account from the iPad.

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreated 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. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account 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 and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

With Snow Leopard if you delete a file (put it the trash) and then do a secure delete it's gone.
The OP is adressing SSD's in particular. Neither Snow Leopard nor Lion have the ability to secure erase an SSD of a single file by user action. This because SSD's write data in pages, but can only delete in blocks. Secure emptying of the trash on an SSD is no different than a non-secure erase, as the controller will not permit erasure of blocks until the entire block is freed, which is almost never the case with even group file deletion. Erasure is simply the re-writing of the "allocation table" that the pages are no longer in use.
SSD's are only rendered "erased" of previous data after an indeterminate period of use, and re-use that would eventually free blocks for re-write, and then actually over-written.
TRIM helps speed this process, but does not alleviate the block versus page issue.
Some additional info.

Leave her ID alone and create a new one for yourself with your email address.

I deleted an old email address from my iphone5 and one of my notes from notepad disappeared. How do I get it back?

Hi, MissLouie.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Some email accounts allow for note syncing. I would recommend adding the email account back to the device and turn note syncing on.

Is there a way to permanently delete your skype history?

I know you can clear all of your skype history within the settings, however if you reinstall skype, the history always comes back. Is there a way to completely, permanently remove the history? Thanks

Turning off iCloud will not accomplish anything, unless you simply wish to sign out your AppleID for itunes adn app store. Then of course, you would not be able to purchase apps or other content.
Any itunes or App store purchases can be set to hidden, as ckuan instructs. These would not show up on your device. But no, there is not way to completely delete content purchases.

Please! Any help is appreciated, this is seriously annoying.

Delete a incorrect email address from Email history

I accidentally entered an incorrect address email into my 3G S. I sent an email to that address and now it shows in my history.
When i go to send an email to anyone who's name begins with "S" the incorrect address is there at the top of the list. Every other address has the "type" of address, i.e home, work next to it but the incorrect address does not, it just has the email address.
How do i delete either the incorrect address off my phone, please note that it is not anywhere else on my phone, it is not in her "contact info" or how do i clear the "sent email" history?
I have restored the "factory settings" and also done the "press the home key and off button until the phone switches off" trick. Nothing has worked
Please someone help me as it is driving me CRAZY!

The Mail app on the iPhone/iPod Touch does have an option to clear previous recipients. The only way to remove these cached email addresses from the Mail application is restoring the iPhone/iPod Touch as a new phone/iPod. If you restore from backup, the cache is also restored.

How can I delete unwanted/inaccurate email addresses from the iPhone cache?

How can I delete old / unwanted / inaccurate email addresses from the "suggestions cache" that keep popping up the moment I type in the first letter in on a fresh email address box?
This is driving me mad! The London Store Apple Genius can only suggest either deleting my email account and then recreating it or totally reseting the iPhone to the original factory settings and then resynching it to my MacBook Pro to get everything back into the iPhone. However, he's not sure that this cache is not stored on the MacBook Pro during synching somewhere so I may well end up where I started! Allan Sampson answered my last "Help" topic, so I'm hoping he can beat the Apple Store Genius again!
Over to the Forum and Allan.

Hi Kelvin and everyone with the same problem.
This used to be me and the painful solution ( for PC users ) is:
Buy a Mac!
Everything "talks" to each other and it all interfaces fine with the business world.
Once you've adjusted to the ( much better ) Mac "culture" it all becomes clear and the
backup service and advice is second to none. Not only that, everything works!
Hope this helps......

Is there a way to permanently delete an iTunes purchase without downloading

I purchased several HD season passes to TV shows and it gives me both the HD and the standard def versions of the show to download every week. I don't want both nor do I want be required to download both.
Is there a way to stop permanently the download for either the HD or SD version of the show - instead of waiting for it to download and then deleting the one I don't watch?
Surely, this must exist!

Not that I am aware.
