I am Unable to remember Icould ID associated with my iphone?

I have an iphone 4 and I didn't know anything about the Activation Lock.  I sold my phone on Ebay and I can't unlock the phone because I absolutely can't remember the icloud info associated with the phone?  I reset the phone before I shipped it.  The buyer returned the phone and I am trying to figure out what can I do to unlock the phone.

    Hi all,
    I am having a difficult time getting into my account. It was working just fine for a while but now I get "We were unable to find any subscriptions associated with your account" every time I go to manage.windowsazure.com

    Hi,
    I suggest you open the IE in new session, then try again.
    If still met the same issue, I think this issue might be related to account, this is out of support in this forum, I suggest you contact with azure support at:

  • New hard drive installed in Mac.  iTunes keeps asking to authorize a very old email address which is not associated with my iPhone and I cannot sync iTunes to my iPhone.

    New hard drive installed in Mac.  iTunes keeps asking to authorize a very old email address which is not associated with my iPhone and I cannot sync iTunes to my iPhone.

    It is referring to purchases made using an Apple ID that was set with that email as the Apple ID. Did you simply create a new Apple ID when the old email address was no longer being used? If so, then that old Apple ID is still tied (and will always be tied) to the purchases made with it, and you will have to sign into iTunes with that Apple ID in order to authorize the computer to it.
    If you don't remember the password for it, you can go to Manage your Apple ID and click on Reset password. If you don't remember the answers to your Security Questions, you can contact Apple Support to get them reset:

  • HT204053 I have two apple ID's.  One is an old one I no longer wish to use, but it is the one associated with my iPhone.  How do I change to my newer apple ID on my iPhone?

    I have two apple ID's.  One is an old one I no longer wish to use, but it is the one associated with my iPhone.  How do I change to my newer apple ID on my iPhone?

    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")
    If you have used your old ID to purchase content from iTunes or the App store, you may want to continue to use this ID for iTunes only to avoid losing your content.

    Re: check that the appointments in my phone are going into iCloud calendars....exactly how do I do this?  I fear this is a really stupid question!
    My iCloud account is set up with my Apple ID as one email account (for example [email protected]) which is the email account I use to sign up for internet sites like Amazon, Apple,etc, so that I can differentiate vendors/mass emails.  But my default calendar on my iPhone is in a different email name (ie [email protected]) which I use for most communications to friends, relatives, etc. and it is this account that holds most of my appointments.  To further complicate things I have other email accounts that I use for business/professional and community work.  If I want all my calendars to show on my iPhone AND sync to my iCloud, do I set this at the phone level or the iCloud level?  or both?   
    Let me clarify....It looks like if I go into appointments that I previously set up through my personal account (ie above [email protected]) and edit the entry on my iPhone, selecting the iCloud "home" calendar within the entry, it will then sync to my iCloud account, no problem....do I have to do this to EVERY entry I have? or is there  a way to name my personal account as one to sync to iCloud?

  • HT201269 How to change the email address associated with an iPhone account?

    How to change the email address associated with an iPhone account?  I inherited my son's phone and it still shows his phone number even though I can add my own email account.  My iCloud is also associated with his phone number.

    If you mean you want to change the iCloud ID your phone is signed into on your phone (which looks like an email address), you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, 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, and your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go 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 on your device, 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.

    I think your problem come from this method :

       System.out.println("Got transfered data");
       Object userObject = tr.getTransferData(TransferableDataItem.DEFAULT_MUTABLE_DATAITEM_FLAVOR);
    //DefaultMutableTreeNode node = (DefaultMutableTreeNode)path.getLastPathComponent();
       IconNode node = (IconNode)path.getLastPathComponent();
       IconNode newNode = new IconNode(userObject);
       DefaultTreeModel model = (DefaultTreeModel)getModel();
       model.insertNodeInto(newNode, node, 0);
    ...You should write :
    if (tr.isDataFlavorSupported(TransferableDataItem.DEFAULT_MUTABLE_DATAITEM_FLAVOR))
       IconNode node = (IconNode)tr.getTransferData(TransferableDataItem.DEFAULT_MUTABLE_DATAITEM_FLAVOR);
       IconNode node = (IconNode)path.getLastPathComponent();
       IconNode newNode = new IconNode(node);
       DefaultTreeModel model = (DefaultTreeModel)getModel();
       model.insertNodeInto(newNode, node, 0);
    ...and create a construcor for IconNode :
    public IconNode(IconNode node) {
       super(node.getUserObject, node.getAllowsChildren());
       icon = node.icon;
    }When you use IconNode newNode = new IconNode(userObject), the icon is null (see your constructor).
    If I can say something, you should simplify your code : you can do the same thing dividing the size of your code by five (at less).

  • How can I change the iCloud account associated with my iphone

    I changed my e-mail address a few months ago including changing my Apple ID to reflect my new e-mail. For some reason, my iphone and my ipad are both stuck with the iCloud username of my old e-mail address. When I try to delete these accounts like other forums have indicated to do, it won't let me because every password possible comes up as invalid and the "forgot password" e-mail never comes. I was wondering if there was a way to delete the icloud account associated with my old e-mail without having a password and replacing it with the updated iCloud information.

    if for some reason your old iCloud account does not accpte or you do not remember your password, you can try this:

  • My friend wants to put music on their iPhone 5C but they do not have a laptop with iTunes that hasn't been associated with another iPhone/iPod. Is there any way they can skip linking their phone to the iTunes and JUST get the music?

    The iPhone has not been associated with any iTunes as I was a little scard to connect it to mine as I do not want all my friend's apps on my phone. Also, we use different apple IDs so would we be able to have two apple IDs associated with one computer?
    SO CONFUSED.
    Please help!

    Your friend can get a new Apple Id for themselves, and create a different account on one of the laptops. Then put all their music in a separate iTunes library, and sync the phone to that particular library.
    This will keep there music separate from your library and their brother's library.
    Just make another User on your computer for your friend to store their music in.

  • I want to change the apple ID associated with my iPhone

    For many years my Apple ID was associated with my work email address. I recently retired and want to change the Apple ID associated with my phone to my personal ID (which I use with my iPad, home PC, etc.).  However, I have forgotten the old password associated with my old ID, and since I no longer have access to my previous email account, I can not request a change of password email as it will be sent to my old email account which no longer exists.  How can I delete the old ID and install the personal ID ?

  • Phone number re-associated with old iPhone - can't receive texts

    I have given my iPhone to my son after purchasing an Android, and my son is essentially using it as an iPod. After he updated to iOS 7, my phone number (which I have transferred to my new phone) has become associate with iMessage and I am unable to receive texts on my new phone from people who have iMessage. Is there a way to remove the number from that device so that I can receive texts again? Thanks.

    Finally got through to talk to a very helpful technician at EE by selecting account query rather than technical problem on the automated answering system on 150. A reset by EE sorted the problem out and the phone is working fine again.

  • How to remove an Apple ID that's associated with my iPhone?

    Hi folks,
    Wondering if anybody can offer some advice to me on how to remove that association? I've already gone into my account to remove it under "Manage Devices" but seems like it's still locked on my phone..
    Appreciate your kind advice.
    Thanks.

    If everything works in iTunes on the computer see if this works. Sign out of the invalid account/email address and the sign in with the correct one on the iPad. Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign out.
    Restart the iPad before you try signing in with the correct ID.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
