HT5621 Icloud account and apple id being shared by 2 phones , can I change this ?

Hi

Any ideas how to solve this , if I delete i cloud account on my phone will this then delete from 2nd phone aswell .
He has already lost contacts because I deleted them on my phone .
Thanks in advance

If you had a passcode set on your iPad your data should be safe. The thief would have to force it into recovery mode and restore it in order to use it, which would completely erase it.
This shouldn't keep your daughter's device from accessing the iCloud account however. If you can no longer sign into the account on iCloud.com from your computer, contact Apple support for assistance.

My husband and I share an iCloud account and want to see eachothers calendars. How can we do this?

I want to sync calendars with another iPhone that shares the same account how do I do this?

If you share the same iCloud account any data you sync with the account (contacts, calendars, etc.) will be merged and appear on both phones, not just the calendar. If you still want to do this, all you have to do is go to Settings>iCloud and sign into the same iCloud account as the other phone. Then turn the data you want so share (such as Calendars) to On.
You can also maintain separate iCloud accounts, and keep your contacts and other synced data separate and still share an iCloud calendar. This would also give you both 5GB of iCloud storage for your data and backups rather than sharing the same 5GB of storage, and is the preferred method for most people. If you would rather do this, set up a new iCloud account in Settings>iCloud, the share your iCloud calendar as described here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a8694.

You do a restore as new to wipe the iPhone then at the end of restore you will be asked to restore from backup. Choose your iPhone backup.
Note you cannot restore an IOS newer than the IOS on iPhone, you need to update iPhone first.

I need to erase all content and settings from old iPhone 4s. Will doing so affect new iPhone 6 which is using the same iCloud account and Apple ID?

No, it will not affect the iPhone 6 content if you wipe the old iPhone 4s.

My iCloud account and Apple ID are different.but now i cant remember my icloud password .help me plzzzzz

If you don't know your iCloud ID, you can try to find it as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5625. (An iCloud ID is also an Apple ID.)
If you don’t know your password you can reset the password as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.

MacBook Airs won't run Classic, nor will Classic connect to iCloud accounts. You will need your Mac OS X version to answer the question involved. Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac, and post in the appropriate forum in the link below:

I upgraded to OS7 and then found a new gmail account on my iPad. It has put all my ntlworld emails into this new account and says they are all unread. How can I delete this unwanted account?

I upgraded to OS7 and then found a new gmail account on my iPad. It has put all my ntlworld emails into this new account and says they are all unread. How can I delete this unwanted account?

If his Gmail account is under the Gmail app and press the app until it wiggles then press the extra deleted. If this account is under the Apple email and then you can go to Settings, mail contacts calendars and then select the account and remove it.

If I delete my iCloud account and make a new one on my phone will it mess up anything? Will it erase my phone or something like that?

Help would be majorly appreciated!

If you want to create a new iCloud account and move your date to the new account, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data. You cannot move an existing iCloud email account to the new iCloud account. When you turn Mail on in Settings>iCloud, you will be asked to create your new @icloud.com email address.

My daughter and i use the same icloud account and apple account but now on my iphone and her ipod we have each others contacts. i want to delete her contacts on my iphone without losing my contacts on my phone or her contacts on her ipod. I

My daughter and i share the same Apple ID account and I cloud account but I just unwittingly merged them on my Iphone 5s. Now i have all her contacts and my own. I want to delete hers from my phone and stop from her receiving my emails and my contacts. Can i fix both problems without erasing my contacts on my phone and her contacts from her ipod?

Hi,
I got my phone a couple of years ago and when it came in the mail, I wasn't home so my brother decided to set up my iPhone for me because he was so desperate to check the phone out. My iCloud account has been his account and it's been set up under his e-mail since the day I got my phone. Once he bought an iPhone, he set it up under the same e-mail account and now we share it. It's so annoying because all of my pictures and stuff are stored in my iCloud, but that's under his e-mail and I really want a new iCloud account but I want to transfer all of my iCloud information and pictures to my e-mail without losing them. Randomly, my brother has been receiving some of my facetime calls and I even turned it off so that it is only set on my device. I didn't even know he received any of my facetime calls until the other day when my friend told me. Now, our contacts are shared and I don't want that either. At one point during the summer, he was receiving my text messages as well. I turned all of those off under settings so they wouldn't be shared on his device, but I need to find a way to carry my iCloud stuff and set it up in a my own completely separate account. Please, please help me. I really am getting so frustrated with it and neither of us want to delete our accounts because we don't want to lose our iCloud stuff.

HT204053 . Is there a way to change/update icloud account and apple id

I recently changed email addresses, so I changed this in my apple account. This changed my apple id. When I did that, I can no longer get icloud to work. On my devices I am unable to change the account id for icloud, and I can no longer log in with my old password. how can I update the user name on my icloud account to match the updates in my apple account?

Welcome to the Apple community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

Cannot facetime from ipad icloud account and apple id differ

Frustrated that my phone and ipad were linked, I changed the id associated with my iPad- now it's linked to an icloud address, but I can no longer facetime.
I've reset my pasword SEVERAL times to no avail.
I used to get kick backs/ double texts and both devices would ring for facetime. want them to be independent of each other.

1) There is support. You have to actually contact them and ask to speak to Account Security.
2) iCloud is as secure as your password. If you share your iCloud/iTunes account with others, or use the same password for iCloud as you do for other online services, then it is more likely to be guessed by hackers. I doubt the Italian Police are experts in internet security so don't believe what they say.
3) Bottom-right of every page on Apple.com is a Contact Us link. Use it.
4) iCloud storage and iTunes / App Store purchases cannot be transferred. Better to secure your existing AppleID and continue using that.

Update iCloud account and apple id on iOS devices

Hello,
How to update apple id and iCloud account on my IOS devices after having changed them on my Mac ?
Thank you in advance

If you have 'Find My (device)' set up you have to log out of that with the old password - this may or may not work. If you don't have it set up you should be able to log out (on an iOS device: Settings>iCloud and click 'Delete Account' - this will not delete the account from the server).
If you are unable to do this you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com ; click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password' (this is probably the nearest subject available).

Is there a way to remove an iphone from my icloud account? I have 2 iphones on my icloud account and want to remove one of them. Can I remove it without having the device in my possesion?

Is there a way I can remove an iphone from my icloud account without having the device in my possesion?

Go to Settings > iCloud, and sign out of the Apple ID there, then sign in with a different Apple ID.

My iCloud account is syncing mobile me address book versus apple id address book...how can I change this?

My icloud account is syncing my mobile me address book vs. my apple id address book. How do I change this?

You have to delete the old account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, 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 iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then 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.

My iCloud Account is displayed with an old ID. How do I change this? Additionally, I have forgotten the password associated with the old ID.

When I tap the Settings icon on my iPhone 4S Home screen, and then scroll down and tap “iCloud”, my iCloud Account is displayed with a previous email address which is no longer in use.
When I scroll down and tap “Delete Account”, I’m prompted for the Apple ID password associated with the old email address to turn off Find My iPhone?
I do not know the password for this old Account, and the email is no longer accessible so I'm unable to delete the account.
Therefore, how can I match my iPhone iCloud Account to my MacBook Pro iCloud Account which uses my new email address and password?

I have the same problem , can anyone help??
