I can't delete my icloud account from my ipad.

I can't delete my icloud account from my ipad. It keeps saying "Cannot delete icloud account" "there was a problem deregister isn't this ipad with icloud. Try deleting your account again." I've updated to the latest software update and done a network reset on my ipad. But nothing seems to work. Also my ipad doesn't allow me to update any applications. i think there might be something wrong with my account.

Hello Cheryl,
If you are stuck trying to remove your iCloud account, then try restoring your iPad. Start with turning off Find My iPad and then use iTunes to restore it. Check out the article below for the steps on how to do that.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

How can I delete the iCloud account from my ipad?

I changed my e-mail on my itunes account and for some reason iCloud still thinks that the old email is still in use. I use the old password on it and it doesnt work. So basically i am stuck and i cannot get the iCloud account off of my iPad. Any ideas?

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must use the previous owner's password to get permission to use the device. If you cannot get the password your father put on the iPad you will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

You can't delete an account, you can only stop using it. If you're getting that error message you won't be able to create a new account on your device. Your only options are to re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account on a different iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

How can I delete my icloud account from my iphone, since it doesn't synch with my ipad?

How can I delete my icloud account from my iphone 4, since it doesn't sync with my ipad mini?

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 shouldn't need to verify the old account). 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.

How can I delete my icloud account from my iphone. I have two icloud accounts the old one just can not retrieve the pwd to access it

If the old ID is your ID, and if your second ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new 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, 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.

You will need the password. If you can't get it reset via http://iforgot.apple.com (if you remember the answers to the account's security questions then you should be able to reset it via them) then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset it.

If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

How do i delete my iCloud account from my iPad with an updated Apple ID?

How do i delete my iCloud account from my iPad with an updated Apple ID?
It requires i log into FindMyiPad to delete the iCloud account however the Apple ID has changed therefore the username/password no longer exists.
This is just sending me in circles to log into to a non-existant apple id with no password to delete my iCloud so i can log in with my updated apple ID.

Settings/iTunes and App Store log out then log in with new ID. you might want to change ID in iMessage, FaceTime and Siri and delete the cloud account and create one with new ID. remember apps are forever linked to the ID used to download them and can only be updated with that ID

Can't delete old iCloud account from new phone

Have trouble deleting old iCloud account from my new phone keep getting a message saying can not delete cause in use

iCloud accounts can be deleted in Mail, Contacts and Calenders in System Preferences from the Apple sign menu on your Host or Main mac.
I had heaps of trouble with this - i fixed it by going back to my host imac and clicked on apple sign - system preferences - then under the Internet and Wireless heading clicked on Mail, Contacts & Calenders. from there you can select iCloud amongst your other stuff in the left window - delete the old one by hitting the (minus) - sign down the bottom after selecting iCloud. Keep your calenders and contacts on your mac when asked.
Once you've deleted the old one and its gone from the window reselect iCloud from the right window of options. Use your new apple ID (current e-mail) to set this one up.
Once you sync all your devices it should all be good.
Took me ages to work this out but minutes to fix once I had.
hope this helps

Can you delete an iCloud account from ONE iPhone without it disappearing from another iPhone registered on the same Apple-id/iCloud account?

My mother and brother made the mistake to connect both their iPhones to the same Apple-id, so a problem came up: All iMessages sent and received from one iPhone are also seen and saved on the other iPhone. My question is if it is possible to delete the iCloud account from one of the phones without it or any data being deleted from the other phone? Thankful for help! / the big sister..

Yes.

Can I delete an icloud account from apple's system with out password

My mom is 88.. Apple help desk got her set up for an icould account she did not need becuse they misunderstood the nature of help she needed. It is a second uncessary account and is wreaking havoc with her iPad. My mom can not remember her password. How can I permanantely remove the account from Apple's system.

Apple IDs (which are used to establish various types of accounts like icloud and itunes store) cannot be permanently deleted, nor can the accounts. Just don't use the account in question if you don't want it.
If this is about icloud, then on her ipad, Go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account. In the future she can always log back in. If she needs to do this, then to deal with a forgotten password...
Try the following link to reset your password.

Can't delete old iCloud account from my iPhone 5

I have just got a new iPhone 5 to replace one that was stolen recently, and wanted to restore it from my last iCloud backup. However, since the last iCloud backup I have changed the email address in my Apple ID. This seems to mean that the App Store, iMessage, FaceTime etc all work using the correct gmail Apple ID, however the iCloud account on my phone is my old Hotmail Apple ID. I can't delete the account or accept new terms and conditions without entering my password to my old Apple ID, which I don't know. When I've tried to login elsewhere with my old Apple ID (eg. online) it says it doesn't exist. Help!

After further investigation, I think this is somehow linked to being unable to turn off the Find My iPhone feature on my phone. When I try to delete my iCloud account, it needs the password to my old Apple ID which is no longer active...

How can i delete my icloud account from apple?

I dont like my icloud user name or email. So can I delee it completly from apple then create a new one?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
To do that, you will have to create a new Apple ID with a new iCloud account, and I think it's not a valid answer. Instead, I recommend you to contact with iCloud support and ask them to change the iCloud mail address > http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact If they can't, then you have to create a new Apple ID and a iCloud account
