I have deleted my icloud account as it would not accept my new email or password but now it is asking for my id and email and says it is incorrect

I need to update my phone and it will not accept my new apple id and password. I have changed my apple id and password recently to a new email address. How do I update my phone when I can't get passed the id bit? Thank you

Thank you for your reply but I sorted it out by turning my phone off and then on again and it seemed to update itself so I could put in the apple ID. However, it's really not easy to negate the iphone and change emails which is unavoidable sometimes. If anything like that happens again I now know that there is an icloud website at least. Anne

How do I delete an iCloud account from my iPad that I no longer know the password for and have no access to the email account to change it?

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.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT569
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

You cannot delete the account from the server (partly to prevent the username from becoming available again and some-one else using it to pretend to be you).. Having disengaged your devices from it, go to http://icloud.com and delete any data in there such as contacts and calendars. Then just ignore it.

I have I pad 2, and I recently reset my password. And now I am not able to upgrade my old apps. Usually it will not ask apple password, but now it's asking password and when I type the password ir says the password is wrong. What would be the problem?

If the old ID is yours, and if your current 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.

I have updated my username and password, but the system keeps asking for my password for an old email for which I have no password.. How can I fix this?

In your case your only solution is to restore it ( see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 ) and you may need to force it into restore mode to do that. This will wipe everything off it and reset it as new, without the passcode. You can then redownload purchased content, buy unless you have a sync'd copy of your contacts and photo's they will be gone.

IM SO HAPPY IF ANYBODY COULD SHARE TO ME..

You must contact the previous owner to have them remove the Activation Lock. There is no way around this. Here are two links. One explains the Activation Lock, and the second one explains what the previous owner needs to do to remove it for you:

How can I delete an iCloud-Account that uses a not anymore existing email-adress?

Months ago my GMX-Account got blocked because it was hijacked by some SPAM-sending-********.
I recognized that when I was not able to log into my iTunes account and buy stuff anymore.
I changed the emailadress by setting up a new Account with a new ID I used from that day on - problem solved.
Plus: I deleted the email-adress as I was sick of it anyways - problem solved, too.
I changed all my IDs on iPhone and iPad to the new ID, except the one of the iCloud.
During that time I had already decided that I did not want to use my iClound storage anyways so I did not work on how to change the emailadress.
I want to use it now - and that is, where the problem started today:
I tried to change the adress, it is grey, cannot be changed.
I tried to log in with the emailadress, iPhone tells me: wrong password (yes, I already tried everything I ever used)
I tried deleting the account: no way, needs password.
That would not be a problem BUT:
I could not use iForgot because the emailadress does not exist anymore.
I could not use the security-questions because I. Simply. Do. Not. Remember. The. Answers. -.-
I DID remember the Username though.
So I logged in and changed the emailadresses.
With the new emailadresses I set up I was able to change the security-questions.
So THAT problem is solved.
Problem is: iCloud-emailadress is still the same and grey.
Trolled by technology and own stupidity/forgetfulness, I guess.
So: I have everything on my new emailadress BUT the iCloud storage which I am not able to use because I cannot change a thing because I forgot the password and the emailadress is no longer existing.
How do I solve that problem?
Anyone?
Best

Why would anyone need a 3rd party program to erase an iPhone? It can be erased using iTunes or the phone itself. You keep promoting unnecessary 3rd party software, and from the same developer. Maybe you are shilling for the company, or work for it?
Lawrence, I really hope you didn't mean to reply to me!
But, yes, I believe selenafromshezhen is shilling for that company.

HT204053 I deleted my iCloud account on my iPhone to use a new Apple account and my contacts were all deleted what do I do?

deleted my iCloud signed back in hoping to recover all of my contacts only got a few back where are the rest?

Try going to icloud.com and signing into the old account you deleted on your phone. See if your contacts are still there; if they aren't and you haven't backed them up anywhere else then their gone. If they are, back them up to a combo vCard as discussed in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4910 and save it on your computer. Next, email the file you saved to yourself and open in on your phone, then tap the attachment to re-import the contacts to your phone.

HT5787 How can I change an old email to a new one? For some reason my old email comes up on my iPhone - and I don't get access to change to my new email which I have on my iCloud account on my pc. My AppleID works on my pc, but not on my iPhone!

How can I change an old email adress on my iCloud accout to my new email (the same as on my pc), as long as my Apple ID works on my pc but not on my iPhone?

You would have to change it back to your old email address in order to turn off "Find My iPhone" on your devices. After you changed it back to your old address and deactivated "Find My iPhone" (activation lock) you could change your Apple ID to your new address again. Now it should wok on all your devices.

Apple ID is all of a sudden not an iCloud account. It used to work until a few days ago, but now iCloud can't register the ID and Outlook can't login to iCloud.

My Apple ID is all of a sudden not an iCloud account.
So it says any way. It used to work until a few days ago, but now iCloud can't register the ID and Outlook can't login to iCloud from my pc. Anyone else faced this problem or know how to deal with it?

Ditto here.
I tried setting up iClunk today.....
.....on my Windows 7 64bit computer.
I click on the iCloud icon in the Network & Internet section; the iCloud sign in window pops up and I type in my Apple user ID and password and it replies that I need to setup a separate iCloud account....even though it plainly states that for the user to "Sign in with your Apple ID".
Go figure.

I have never add rescue email, but now it's asking for it

Hello,
I'm trying to download a paid app, but App Store asking for extra security questions, that I'm not remember after 2 years from my sign up to Apple ID.
However, I've tried to reset my security questions, but I have nevertheless added an email for the rescue email. Also the email that it is displayed was not existing when I've signed up.
How should i set a new rescue email?
Note again that I haven't received any email address as the one that it is displayed in the FAQs for the reset. (Already checked my emails and I have the verification for the sign up only).
Thanks in advance,
George

Hello Matmark
Check out the article below, to go over resetting the security questions. Like you said, if you do not have the rescue email or not getting the email, then contact iTunes Store support.
Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5312
You can edit or delete your rescue email address at My Apple ID. To edit your rescue email address:
Navigate to My Apple ID using your web browser.
Click "Manage your account"
When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
Click Password & Security
You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.  Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so.

I don't have a password but the computer keeps asking for one

I just got my macbook pro and am trying to download some applications like java but my computer is asking me for a password and I never set one up so I'm really confused on what to do. I've tried my apple ID password.

If no one else has access to the op computer or they are the only ones in their household, there is no need for a log in password.
Don't agree with you there, portables usually leave the house.
And you should never ever leave it alone. I take mine out of the home all the time. Never leaves my sight....only when inside my carrying bag which is on my body. Most of all, no one touches it. Better not breath on it either!
In all my years of using "personal" computers, I have never set up a password. Then again, maybe I should since the location of Jimmy Hoffa's body is buried deep inside my hard drive.
