I bought a Macbook Air, how can I change the icloud credentials for ownership..?

Thanks in advance...!!!!!!

If you have admin privileges create a new User account so you start fresh or you can go to System Preferences > iCloud and sign out using his ID and sign in with your ID. I suggest moving to a new User.
CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups. Give it Admin rights
Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar.
Delete the previous account after you have moved your personal files over to the new User via the Shared folder.

    I do not know the log in details and no longer have that icloud email address !!
    please help :-(

    That's Activation Lock. You will need to remember the Apple ID and password you used to set up the phone.
    If you can't remember them, you can go to iforgot.apple.com to try to recover the information.
    If you are the original owner of the phone & have proof of purchase, you can try calling Apple to see if they can assist also.

  • How can I change the ICloud/ID Apple on my Ipad/IPhone?

    I've changed my Apple ID and I've changed the ID of Itunes on my IPad/IPhone.
    Now I want to change the IPad/IPhone ID on ICloud, but my IPad keep and store on my previous ID. How can I change the ICloud ID Apple on my Ipad/IPhone?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    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, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
    This article provides more information about Activation Lock.

  • How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from email?

    How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from emails I receive?  It shows the default as Photoshop Elements 4.0 and is not supported by this system.  That was my last computer!!
    Thanks,
    Sheila

    That has nothing to do with styles nor Pages, it is a System/Printer Driver setting.
    You can experiment to see if the Printer Settings stick with your document, but in the past this has not worked.

  • How can we change the valuation type for a material created.

    How can we change the valuation type for a material created.
    Note : All open orders are closed for this material.3
    Please guide

    Hi,
    You can change valuation class, or you can set valuation category for your material master. If valuation category is set you can extend your material master and in this way creating records for different valuation types.
    Please try to set the desired changes in your mmr (MM02) > save > SAP will give you error message > push 'Display error' button and you will see what conditions must be eliminated to carry out the change.
    - you are not allowed to have open transactional data
    - no stock in the current and previous period (using proper posting date in MB1A + 201 you can reduce your stock level to 0, and after that you can set it back by MB1A + 202)
    - in case of valuation category setting batch archiving may be necessary

  • HT204053 How can I change the iCloud id associated with my iPad?

    How can I change the iCloud ID associated with my iPad?

    To change the ID for:
    iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the other ID.
    FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
    iTunes, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Store.
    iCloud, start by saving your photo stream photos to your camera roll by opening your My Photo Stream album, tap Select, tap all the photos you want to save, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and provide the password when prompted, then sign back in with the ID you want to use.  This will delete the account and iCloud data from your phone but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a new account, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.  However, if you are setting up a new account with a new ID, when you delete the account be sure to choose Keep on My iPad, then choose Merge when you sign into the new account to upload your data. 

  • Question: How can I change the iCloud ID on my iphone to the one I'm using on my ipad?

    How can I change the iCloud ID on my iphone to the one I'm using on my ipad?

    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.

  • How can I change the counter symbols for the slideshow templates in Muse?

    How can I change the counter symbols for the slideshow templates in Muse? Currently they are obviously normal text characters. So, how can I change them to filled circles, for example?

    Hi Aish,
    Thank you very much. This was very helpful. I am still new to Muse and try to find my way through all the features and possibilities. I like it very much so far.
    Does Muse support ‘liquid” design as well?
    Thank you !
    Best regards,

  • How can i change the email address for Icloud on my Iphone 4

  • How can I change the hotkey assignments for options listed in the context-click (right-click) menu?

    How can I change the letter assignments designated to the options that appear in the right-click drop-down menu?
    I frequently save specific items and inspect elements in webpages, however currently the key assignment for 'View Page Info' is the letter ' i ', which inconveniently is located out of the reach of my left hand.
    Rather than forcing ambidextrous mouse usage to allow my right-hand to rest on the keyboard, if I could be pointed in the right direction for customizing these assignments I would greatly appreciate it. I have been able to disable some of the menu items I don't use with firebug but didn't see/didn't know how to go about customizing this option in about:config or deeper in the program files.
    Thanks ahead of time, I'm sure this will be a quick and hopefully easy file/preference name assignment I just need to add, I just couldn't find any forums that had already addressed the request.

    While that add-on is pretty useful and handy for customizing the keyboard shortcuts for items housed in the Menu Bar, it does not provide the resource to change the key combinations assigned to items in the context-click menu
    (the one that appears when you right-click a HTML element or image or such with specific actions pertaining to the item you clicked on - See image)

  • How can I change the default application for a content type?

    Running a version of Linux, the default application for PDF files is "Use Document Viewer (default)", which appears to be /usr/bin/evince. I'd much prefer to use /usr/bin/okular; how can I change the default. This question is NOT about how to change the function that is automatically applied when I access a link, in this case "Preview in Firefox", but rather to the default application that I can select when I download a file being viewed in Firefox's previewer.

    This is real progress, a solution to the problem as posted. The command:
    xdg-mime default okularApplication_pdf.desktop application/pdf
    makes okular the default.
    However when I added okular to the choices for applications in:
    * Edit>Preferences>Applications>PDF
    the popup box that appears when I click Download on the preview page changed. The pulldown menu that appears next to "Open with" used to have 3 entries:
    # Document Viewer (default)
    # Acroread
    # Other
    Now it has only 2:
    # Okular (Default)
    # Other
    I'd like it to read
    # Okular (Default)
    # Acroread
    # Other
    How can I control the entries in this pulldown list?
    Also, how can I make the default choice in the popup box be
    * Open With <whatever> , rather than
    * Save File ?
