I have two iCloud accounts and I want to delete one, help!

I have two icloud accounts and I want to delete one and have the one across all my devices, however, I have tried a number of times, I have deauthorised all my computers on the old icloud/apple account, yet every time I log back onto my main compputer, the old account comes up. I have tried everything, any help would be appreciated....
Cheers

You can't delete an iCloud account. You can, however, sign out of that account and just stop using it. Then sign in to your second account on all devices account.

HT204053 I have two itunes accounts and would like to delete one of them so that there is no confusion. So how can I delete one of the accounts???

need to delete on of my itunes accounts
any help. I've searched the apple website and can't seem to find any information on deleting an itunes account.

It's not currently possible to delete an account, all you can do is remove any personal info from and stop using it - but any content that you downloaded from iTunes with it will remain tied to that account, and only that account will be able to re-download its content, authorise its content on a new computer, and download updates to its apps.

Need multiple 'MAIL' Icons. Have two mail accounts and i want to keep them separate but want to EASILY switch back and forth from the main screen instead of going through, Settings, Mail, and selecting account. Major pain

Have two mail accounts and i want to keep them separate but want to EASILY switch back and forth from the main screen instead of going through, Settings, Mail, and selecting account. Major pain the butt. This has been a request from Apple users for many years. it's great you can now combine all emails into one, but some people want them kept separate and have separate icons on the main page. They could easily do this by having one "MAIL" account as white and another red. Or put MAIL 1 and MAIL 2. Or an actual label that the mail accounts are called on the ICONS!!
Help!

...I could switch back and forth between accounts while in the mailbox, with one button. I think that is what you are referring to? Whoever said it's just a simple switching - you obviously haven't had the pleasure of using an Android device. It's not that quick to go back and forth - definitely not efficient...
Not that it matters a lot, Android vs iPhone interface is largely a matter of personal preference and what you know... I'm not sure which one you're saying is not efficient...
In any event...
I currently have two email accounts setup. My iPhone main page Mailbox settings reads:
Mailboxes
Inboxes
All Inboxes
Gmail
[email protected]
Accounts
Gmail
[email protected]
I wish there an efficient way to move back and forth while in the "Inbox" between accounts. Also, Why does one gmail account show as "Gmail" and another as the actually address?
The names are based on the names you gave the accounts when you set them up.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap the account you want to re-name. Go to the "Description" field and put in what ever you want.
Second, there is no way to quickly choose a bunch of emails to delete. I have to manually go into each one and move it to the Trash folder.
If you tap the edit button in the upper right while in mail, you can select multiple items to move, delete or mark (flag).
I don't want any of the condescending remarks, that I've read here and in other forums. I'm honestly looking for a solution, which I think you are too! One thing I realized is that iPhone users in these forums are really defensive and quick to say "that's how it is, live with it, if you don't like it go away" Um...the only thing that tells me is you are pretty bitter and have kept telling yourself that, to force yourself to like your device. I prefer to express my issues, and find solutions. There is ALWAYS a solution...
I think what you will find is that many people here, myself included, tend to get a bit short with people who start off with attacks or whining about how something has been asked for for years and should be easy, rant about things that have already been beaten to death multiple times in the forums, talk about how much better Android or BB are at something (really... if it's that much better, why did they buy an iPhone to begin with?), etc., or continue to ask questions that could easily be answered with a simple search, or even just by looking back at the last dozen posts to the forum, half of which probably asked the EXACT SAME question.
I don't think any of us go out of our way to be rude or uncivil. That said, attacking the people who are attempting to help you is much more likely to generate a response of 'if you don't like it, go away', than it is to generate something that will be truly helpful.

I have two iCloud accounts and want to merge them

I have accidently set up two iCloud accounts and now I need to merge them to get rid of one so that all my accounts are in one place. I have not been able to get my PC Outlook file synced with since Mobile Me is no longer available and I just now figured this out.

You cannot merge them. You could manually export all the data from one and reimport it into the other: or you could sign in with one in System Preferences>iCloud and with the other in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars, which would make both sets of data available on your Mac.

I have two adobe accounts and I want to synchronize them.

I have two adobe accounts: one for work and one for home. I want to synchronize them so I can download the cloud on my work computer.

Yes you can DavidStafford although if your membership is provided by your work I would verify with them that it can be utilized for personal use. You can find more details regarding how to activate your membership on different computers at Activation & deactivation help - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-deactivation-products.html.
I would also recommend searching the Adobe Creative Cloud forum at Adobe Creative Cloud as this topic is discussed quite often.

If I have two iTunes accounts, and only want one to update my apps why does the other account keep opening?

Here's the issue-I have two iTunes accounts, yet account #1 always comes up when I want to update my apps. This occurs even when account #2 is logged in and has been synced from desktop to iPad. Additionally,Account #2 is logged in on the iPad and yet account #1 prompt appears when updating. Interestingly account #2 functions normal for iTunes purchases but not apps purchases. Any suggestions?

Apps will ALWAYS be tied to the account from which they were purchased. You will always have to update the apps from the account from which they were purchased.

I want to use only my primary account which I pay many apps in my iDevices and I want to change my email of primary account to chicky.viruz@***. How can I do for this case. I don't want to miss my purchased app from my primary account. Please contact me back for the process.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Athichat,
you have two issues:
1. Change of email of Primary Account.
You can change your Apple ID name, password, or billing information at any time.
To change your account information:
Choose Store > View My Account.
Click the Edit button.
Make your changes, and then click Done.
Your changes take effect immediately.
If you also use your Apple ID in other applications, you don’t need to update your information in those applications. The changes you make in iTunes apply to all applications in which you use your Apple ID.
2. Delete Secondary Account
You can't currently delete an account, all you can do is remove any personal info from it and stop using it - any content that you bought/downloaded via that account will remain tied to it

I have 2 itunes accounts and I want to cancel one of them how do i cancel it?

I have 2 different itunes accounts and I need to cancel one of them. where can I go to do this, I can't find anywhere on the itunes website to cancel my account

Stop using it. Take your credit card info out of it.
No need to do anything else.
All purchases made from that account will still be tied to the account so you will have to authorize your computer to that account as well.

I have two gmail accounts and firefox made me choose one and locked me out of the other. i can't get access to the other and i need it. how to i undo what firefox did?

For the first time Firefox made me choose between my two gmail accounts: lbalisle @gmail.com and [email protected] I was in Vovision so i checked that and now I can't get into my [email protected] account.
This is taking a lot of time to deal with when I don't have it. I have emails at [email protected] i need to get to. Please help! Linda Balisle

You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

I have two iTunes account. How do I delete one?

When my husband purchased an iPod, I downloaded an iTunes account for him. Now that we both have iPhones, my account comes up with his name. Is there anyway to delete and start over with two individual accounts?

You cannot.

I have 2 icloud accounts. can they be merged into one?

I have two iCloud accounts and want to delete one of them. Can the two be merged into one?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't merge accounts but there may be some things you can do, what exactly are you trying to achieve by merging accounts.

I have two iCloud accounts, my original one that I used for iTunes years ago which has all my content, apps etc and a mobile me one which I got when I set mobile me up which has all my settings etc, this is causing problems, can I merge them?

As I said I have two iCloud accounts, both do different things, i.e. my original iTunes account has all my app's and music etc, and then also the account which was set up for me when I set up a 'mobile me' account has all my calendars, contacts, settings etc, how can I merge these or even easily set my settings etc to go to my older iTunes account, I have tried to set up family sharing and all I can share is my calendars not my apps because they are with another iTunes account.
I am also a little concerned that my fire vault has just set its self up using the mobile me account, if I was to get rid of an account I imagine this would be the easiest one to ditch then what would happen to all my encrypted data?
Many thanks for your help.

I am logged into the same things on both my iPhone and my MacBook Pro, except for mail. I use a gmail IMAP account and everything there already works on both machines. The iCloud account on my iPhone uses one Apple ID and the one on the Mac uses the second Apple ID.
