How to delete an apple ID?

Afraid you cannot delete it.   You simply stop using it.
But you may then run up against problems with App store downloads when it comes to updates if you change it in any way.

    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    How to delete an apple I'd account

    I'm sorry that you have had bad experiences here in the ASC discussions. Not everyone is technically proficient and a user should not be chasited in a forum for not having "technical" expertise. The reason that these forums exist is to provide help for those that don't have the proficiency or knowledge that more experienced people have.
    I really don't know of any way to remove an Apple user from the community, but the simple thing to do is to just not come back, if you really feel that you no longer want any part of the ASC.
    If this discussion site is not to your liking, there are other iPad forums that you can join, but hopefully you will reconsider in the future if you need help again. There are a lot of very knowledgable people in all of the different areas of the ASC that can offer help. Don't let the remarks of a select few scare you away.

  • HT5625 How to delete two apple I'd user, my daughter e-mail name always appears when I need to update or down load an app, but my name and information is in the settings

    I agree with the Thomas, in that I think you have mucked up your settings in the AOL account. Your username should be something like - [email protected] Your password is whatever you use as the password.
    You could try deleting the account and start over again. Here is a link to a "how to set up AOL email " on the iPad. It is  4 or 5 step process and just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the correct fields in the set up. Among my 4 email accounts on my iPad, I have 2 AOL accounts. I have no problems at  all and it was really very easy to set up. There is no reason why AOL email should not work on your iPad.
    To repeat and emphasize - Just make sure that you are entering the correct information in the appropriate fields as I think that's where you are making your mistakes.
    If I had my choice, I would probably chuck the AOL accounts as well, but I have all the spam filters set as high as I can on the server, and it has cut down tremendously on the spam. Unfortunately - we set up AOL accounts at my workplace years ago and I really hesitate to change them now, so I continue on with these, but like I said, they work fine and they were very easy to set up.

  • How to delete one apple id account when you have two

    How do I delete the apple id and password I use on my iPhone
    and just use the one on my MacBook for both devices.
    When I bought my iPhone I tried to set up my apple id on the phone using the same username and password as on my MacBook
    but it didn't like my password on the iPhone.
    The password was acceptable on the MacBook but the iPone required a more complicated password.
    So, I set up a separate Apple id on my iPhone
    and now I have two apple ids and I'd like to delete one and just use one for both devices.

    There's no way to delete an Apple ID. Just don't use it.

    if this is content that you have put on it via your itunes library, then you manage the content in itunes (add, remove etc).
    edit your sync options if you want to remove anything.

    how ts save my apple id

    If you mean that you've forgotten the answers to your questions then read the HT5312 page that you posted from, it has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should give you a reset link.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    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 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • HT5312 How to delete rescue address

    I would like to change my apple id but its always saying that it should not be same as my rescue email address but i don't know how to delete my rescue email. I already tried the instruction given here by i don't see that part where you can edit rescue email. Please help me.. Thanks!!

    The instructions on the page that you posted from should work :
    Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
    Click "Manage your account"
    When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
    Click Password and Security (on the left-hand side of the screen)
    You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
    After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address. (which should be below the listof your 3 questions)
    Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.
    How far through those steps do you get ?

  • How to delete old Apple id on I pad

    I Can't update my apps on I pad.  it keeps taking me to old Apple id.  I have changed my Apple ID.  Tnanks

    If you actually changed the Apple ID, meaning if you changed the email address associated with the ID, but did not create a totally new Apple ID, the new ID should work. Is this how you changed the Apple ID?
    Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
    If you did create a new ID, you cannot update the apps that you bought with your old ID. Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to make the purchase, That's why Neil is telling you to delete them and download them again, so that they will now be associated with the new Apple ID.

  • HT1414 how to delete an apple id

    how do i delete an apple id

    Do you mean just the Apple ID as it is on your iPhone?  If so, go to Settings > iCloud and turn Find My OFF.  Then delete the iCloud account.  Then go to Settings > iTunes and App store and tap the Apple ID and View Apple ID and sign out of the stores, back up and delete the ID.
    If your plan is to return the iPhone to factory setting, you can simply go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings after you have turned Find My OFF.

  • Does anyone know how to delete an Apple Support Community account/profile?

    Hey Guys,
    Thanks for taking the time to take a look at this post!
    I need to delete my apple support community account because I have responded to some questions and asked a few myself in the past and now even though I have fully removed myself from those posts and changed my e-mail preferences so that those preferences are set to not receiving any more emails, I am still receiving emails!!!!
    So i just want to delete my account now..
    Many thanks in advance!!

    There is no way for you to delete the account. I suppose in dire circumstances a host could do it but it doesn't happen often.
    If the only reason you want to delete the account is because of the email you are getting from here, it can be stopped. SeeHighly annoyed here. for the way to stop them.
    regards

    how to reset my Apple ID?

    If you mean your security questions, as that is the page that you've posted from, then if have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    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 won't get the reset option - you will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
    e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
    or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    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 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570
    If you mean that your account is disabled then 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 your phone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
    If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
