I can't remove the other icloud account on my iphone4 i dont know the password how can i remove it?

You're not supposed to see iCloud.com from your mobile device, it's for use only with a computer. You can view the iCloud data on your mobile device through the appropriate apps (contacts, calendars etc)

  • My friend gave me ipod touch with all his accounts, i created new accounts but when i went on the appstore and tried to update apps installed by him,i was asked his account's password! i dont know his password.how can i use my account to update apps?

    You can't.  Apps and really all content purchased/downloaded through one Apple ID is forever tied to that Apple ID.  In the case of Apps they will always request that Apple ID to update as they are licensed to that Apple ID.
    In reality, the Apps were licensed to that Apple ID by the developer.  And cannot simply be given away to you for you to use.
    He should have wiped the iPod clean so you could set it up for your use without any of his accounts or purchased content as you are not really licensed to any of those Apps.
    Your friend should have followed this support document before giving the iPod to you:

  • Some else icloud account is in my phone i dont know there password how can i rest the iphone if i dont know their icloud password?

    I have the iphone 4s my operating system ios 8.0.2. My iphone has someone else icloud account on it. I dont have any idea how this could have happen. I read online i could rest all the contents and settings of my iphone. But it wouldnt let me rest my iphone without the icloud account password and i cant turn off "Find My Iphone" without the icloud password. So how can I reset my iphone without the password???

    Well, unfortunately, you have run into the Activation Lock. Whomever sold you the phone either sold you a stolen phone, or they failed to sign out of iCloud and to turn off Find My iPhone before selling you the device. Your only recourse at this point is to contact the seller to see if they will remove the iCloud/Find My iPhone sign in:
    Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
    If they refuse to help, or you cannot contact them, I'm afraid you have a brick. There is no other way around the Activation Lock other than what is posted in the link above. For future reference, if you are purchasing a used iDevice, make sure the Activation Lock is not enabled on the device:
    How do I check for Activation Lock before purchasing a used device?
    When purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device has been erased and is no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
    You can check the current Activation Lock status of a device by visiting icloud.com/activationlock from any Mac or PC.
    Or you can follow the steps below to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
    Turn the device on and slide to unlock.
    If the passcode lock screen or the Home screen appears, the device hasn't been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Don't take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it's been erased.
    Begin the device setup process.
    After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you're asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner isn't present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in to icloud.com/find. Don't take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
    You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you're asked to “Set up your iPhone," “Set up your iPad," or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process.
    Here is the link to the Activation Lock support document:

    Welcome to the Apple community Pammy.
    Yes, that's exactly what I'd suggest for the vast majority of users.

  • Can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes and no.
    There is no issues at all if you use two user accounts on the mac, each can sync with one of the accounts.
    If you are using a single user account, you can add the second account as a secondary account in settings > mail, contacts and calendars and you can then sync mail, contacts, calendars, notes and reminders from the second account, but not documents and data, back to my mac or photostream.

    I cannot connect to my outgoing email server on my macBook pro, yet I can, for the same email account on my iPad. Also I can send emails from the other email account I have on my MacBook...really confused can anyone help?

    Sometimes deleting the account and then re-creating it can solve this issue
    Write down all the information in accounts before doing this
    Highlight the account on the left and click the minus button
    Then click the plus button to add the new account and follow the prompts

    You can't. Your mysterious benefactor must remove the device from her (I guess you know it's a her?) iCloud account by logging into icloud.com, going to Find my iPhone and removing from there.

  • How can i delete an old icloud account for which I do not have the password

    I changed my iCloud and iTunes account on my MAC AIR to a new ID (successfully).  The iTunes account on my iPad Air was also updated, but I can't change or get rid of the old iCloud account on my iPad and I don't know what the old password is for the old account.  How can this account be deleted off my iPad, please help!

    If your device is signed into an old iCloud ID that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
    If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going 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.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) 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 back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • HT4759 Is it true that when setting up devices with the find my phone app you must use the same account for ICloud ? If so how do I delete a current account to make it read as the other ICloud accounts?

    I'm setting up my devices with the find my phone app. I have accomplished setting up 2 devices. The third I can't setup because I can't change the iCloud account.
    My understanding from reading that the iCloud accounts must use the same name on all devices. How do I change that account in my phone settings?

    You don't have to use the same iCloud account in order to track all your devices.  You just have to sign into the iCloud account being used on the device you are trying to track in order to track it.  When you sign in on icloud.com and open Find My iPhone, you will see all the devices with Find My iPhone enabled that are using the account you signed in with.  To track a device using a different account, simply sign out, then sign back in using the ID the new device is using.
    The Find My iPhone app works the same way.  It will display devices based on the iCloud account you sign in with on the app.  To track a device using a different account, sign out, then sign back in with the iCloud ID that the new device is using.

  • How can i change delete old Apple ID on my iphone, i dont know the password

    i change the Apple ID using my PC. My new Apple ID was verified both email and password. My Ipad air sync to the new Apple ID but my iphone wont sync. And everytime i try to change my Apple ID on my iphone it ask for password of the old Apple ID, but it keep saying incorrect ID and password. I cant delete or change because i dont know the password.

    You need to reset the password for the old Apple ID.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5787
    FYI - all apps, all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps. Not possible to merge or transfer apps downloaded with one Apple ID to another.
    This means in order to install an app update with an app that was downloaded with your old Apple ID, you will need to use that Apple ID and password.

  • How can I delete an old iCloud account for which I do not remember the password?  The email address linked to that account is no longer active.

    The email linked to that account is no longer active.  How can I delete this old account and use a new one?

    Although your profile says you're running iOS 5.1.1 it sounds like you're running iOS 7 (otherwise you would not need your password to delete the old account).  Assuming that's true, and your iCloud ID has changed but you need to delete the old account in order to change to your new one, 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.

  • HT5622 How do I access the notes in my iCloud account from an iPad WITHOUT deleting the other iCloud account?

    I'm borrowing an iPad from a friend and don't want to mess up their settings too much, but I really need to access something in my Notes and for that I need to access my iCloud account.
    Please Help!

    I was not aware of the fact that you could not sign into your own iCloud,con account from another computer. Actually, as far as I know, you can. When you go to iCloud.com, you simply sign into your own account.
    I can access my iCloud.com account on a Mac running Tiger and here is a screenshot that shows it. I access my Pages files from work on the Mac. I used it yesterday in fact - and I am using an ancient version of Safari as well.
