I am giving my niece my old ipad.  how do i delete my itunes account and put hers on?

I am giving my niece my old ipad - ipad 2 - 3 G.  I have reset everything, but I cannot change my itunes account from me to put hers on.  How do I do this, please.
Thanks

I suggest Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings
Then your niece will receive an iPad which, software- and content-wise, will appear as if it's fresh out-of-the-box.  It will have no ties whatsoever to any devices, iCloud, etc. that you had been using.
The above will be enough if the iPad is running iOS 7.  If it's on an earlier version, there is some more to clear out.

    Why do you think you need to delete your iTunes account? Why don't you want to use it for the new phone?

    Hi 1Donald,
    To answer your question, ''"How can my new desktop have a KEY when it is not even part of the sync yet?"''
    You need to get the key from the new device and enter it into the old device. So on the old device select "Pair a device" and the place to enter the key will show up.
    I hope this helps.

  • My non-so-techno missus has had my old iphone4s, deleted all my contacts, and put hers in, then backed up to iCloud (mine) so now I have her contacts on my 5s......and ideas?

    My non-so-techno missus has my old iPhone 4S, deleted all my contacts and put hers in, then backed up to iCloud (mine) so now I have all her contacts on my 5s.....any ideas?

    iCloud isn't a backup where Contacts etc. are concerned, it's a syncing service. Any changes you make on any device connected to it are transmitted to iCloud and then to other devices. If your son signed into your iCloud account and deleted contacts then that's the same as if you had deleted contacts on your own device. I'm afraid that as far as iCloud is concerned, deleted is deleted. If you don't have an independent backup such as Time Machine, or a backup of your iOS device on iCloud or iTunes, then you can't retrieve your data. If you had made a backup of your iOS device you can restore that - it will restore the entire backup so any changes made subsequent to the backup will be lost.

  • HT5621 How do i delete an icloud account and set up a new account with icloud if i dont no the old accounts password

    How do i delete an icloud account to set up a new icloud account if you dont know the old accounts password

    Welcome to the Apple community Amber
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • HT5312 I cannot remember the password for iCloud that goes with an old email address that I used to set it up.  How do I delete the iCloud account and start over?

    I am stuck in a loop and want to delete the iCloud account I set up and start over.  How?

    If you acquired content with the old Apple ID, you also forfeit the content. Content is forever associated with the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one ID to another nor does Apple merge IDs. It would be best to reacquire use of the ID than to abandon it if you have content because that is the only ID that can redownload the content or update it. Call Apple Care for your country and ask for the Account Security Team, then request help resetting the password for the account.
    Otherwise, if none of that matters, just abandon the ID and everything associated with it, delete everything from your devices and libraries. Then create a new Apple ID and start over.

  • 3 iphones one ipad how do we change between itunes accounts

    We have 3 iphones and one ipad. driving me crazy how do I switch between 3 itunes accounts?
    Also have to back up to Windows 8 (hate it) don't know how I'm working on that today

    One of them can keep the current account.  Since the iCloud email account must stay with the current account, whoever uses it for email might be the best one to keep it.  You can then migrate the other phones to separate accounts, along with a copy of the data.  To do this, 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 (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create the new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
    Once all the phones are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete each other's data from your accounts.

  • How can I sync my iPad with a new laptop (same itunes account) and not lose all my app data, i.e. games data stored on the ipad, not the app itself?

    I want to sync my iPad with a new laptop, so I can get rid of the old computer.  I have already downloaded all the itunes content on the new laptop, but when i go to sync, it tells me that itunes will erase and copy all the apps from the new library.  The 2 computers are on the same account, so is there a way to copy the apps (including app data) onto the new laptop, instead of vice versa?

    You should be able to log into your account via the Store > Sign In menu option - if the drop-down menus aren't showing the control-B should them to show.
    Your balance should be accessible wherever you are signed into the account. My account's balance shows at the top left of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option (that option will only show after you've signed in).

    I recently updated my primary email address associated with my Apple ID account.
    Now when I go to App store on my iPad it still tries to login to the App store using the old email address I had associated with the account, and naturally my password doesn't work. I can't figure out how to tell my iPad to login using the updated email address.
    So in effect I'm locked out of the app store and I currently have 26 updates waiting.
    I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting my IPad to iCloud with no luck.. However I cloud happens to show the correct/updated email address.
    Does anyone know how to resolve this?
    Thanks

    Did you change the email for the Apple ID or did you create a new Apple ID? A new Apple ID cannot be used with content that was bought using a different Apple ID.

  • HT1414 I am restoring a new iPad, using iCloud, with all my old iPads info, it is taking forever, all day and I'm still only an 8th of the way there.  Is there any way to speed up all the game down loads or is there a way to re-organize my game icons manu

    I am restoring a new iPad, iCloud, with my old iPads info, it has been downloading all day and it's only 2pages in on my game apps out of about 10 pages.  Is there a way to speed this process, or is there a way to move my icons so that the games I want are at the beginning of the line as opposed to at the end because their name is alphabetically last

    There is no way that I know of to speed up the download. Restoring from an iCloud backup will take as long as it takes in order to download all of your iPads contents. You commited to iCloud and now you have to wait until everything finishes downloading.
    This relies on your WiFi connection speed, so unless you can speed that up, you just have to wait.
