I never had an APPLE ID with this email address and I have no idea why this is this showing to me?

Every time I restore my iPhone from iCloud Backup, this apple id SHOWS UP  and asking password. But I never had an APPLE ID with this email address and I have no idea why this is this showing to me? Could anyone help me to remove it from my Applr ID as it seems somehow its linked to my iCloud Backup. Thank you.

Hi Ralph,
I have received the iPhone 5s from my carrier EE UK. I never had a second hand device as all my previous iPhones received from my carrier. Every time I restore from iCloud backup, first I enter my Apple ID and Password, then it authenticates and goes through next process and updates iCloud settings, right after initial settings then it displayes enter your password where the Apple ID is the metntioned Apple ID and in the bottom it says "Skip this to go next process" or something. I have to press that everytime to skip it, then restore my backup from iCloud and then when I'm in iPhone home it asks me for the password of that mentoned email. So everytime I change the email address to my Apple ID then enter my password that activates my iCloud services and start downloading all the apps I installed.
Its really weird to be honest and I don't know how to remove that email address from that process and seems its there.
N.B. When I had iPhone 4s, Apple Store did replace my iPhone 4s with a new one due to the faulty WiFi.

  • Apple ID with Expired Email address and no password

    I recently purchased a new macbook pro. For the past few years i have been using a me.com Apple ID. But prior to that, like 15 years ago, I had an account with eartlink.net as the email address in the ID. I no longer have an account with earthlink.  When I went to sync my new computer with my iPad, I was asked for the password to this account in order to authorize the computer to play music under this ID.  It has been so long ago that now I no longer remember the password. I tried to get it sent to me, but of course, they want to email to the defunct email address.  The other way is security questions, but of course, I did not think it was any of their business what my birthday was 15 years ago, so I entered a fake birthdate.  SO.... now there is no way for me to access this account and authorize the computer.
    I will withhold any comments about multiple Apple IDS and not being able to change or merge them, but certainly in this day of software genius, they should have thought of a better way to deal with this.
    Anyone have any ideas of how I can get in to the account to authorize it?
    Thanks
    Charlie

    As I understand it you have an "orphaned" Apple ID that has not been used in years, whose email address no longer exists or is otherwise inaccessible, and you don't remember your fake birthday. Is that correct?
    Anyone have any ideas of how I can get in to the account to authorize it?
    If you ever bought anything from the Apple Online Store using that Apple ID... maybe.
    Go there: Apple Online Store
    Click this:
    One of the options that appears next will enable you to check the status of an order, even one that was placed ten years ago. Fifteen, I'm not so sure, but I know their order status history encompasses more than ten years. You will need to find an option that does not require that Apple ID and password combination.
    Once you reach the order status page you will see that "orphaned" Apple ID and the email address that no longer viable - they are separate, even though they may be identical.
    Opposite Account Information there will be a blue Edit button, which you can use to edit the email address associated with that Apple ID.
    Don't attempt to change the Apple ID there, but change the email address associated with it to a viable email address.
    You will then be able to use that email address for the reset instructions that will be sent upon requesting to have that Apple ID password reset, using the instructions here:

    You might want to try contacting Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click See All Products and Services>iTunes>iTunes Store>Passwords & Security Questions>Lost or Forgotten Apple ID password.  They should be able to explain what's going on and help you reset the password for the old ID if necessary.  The call should be free.

    This has been reported numerous times in the past. It seesms that from time-to-time the response system responsible for sending the key goes away.
    Take a look at the More Like This box on the right hand side of this page. Some users have had success getting the key sent in various ways.

    The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list. The App Store which is required to download 10.7 or 10.8 is part of the 10.6.6 update.
    If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.

    I am having trouble with my Apple ID and AppStore
    Here are the steps I have taken and the results:
    Changed my Apple ID with new email address.
    Changed my iCloud with above new email address.
    NOW - Apple ID appears correct in AppStore Settings, iCloud and AppStore*
    If I scroll to bottom of screen in *App Store/Featured, I can see that the Apple ID is my new email.
    Upon “updating” Apple ID reflects OLD email.
    Deleted accounts, re-added accounts.
    Signed out and signed in with new UN/Email
    Issue remains the same.

    To migrate your data to a new iCloud account go to Settings>iCloud and turn off all synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.), when prompted choose to keep the data on your phone.  After everything is set to off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, create the new iCloud account on your phone and turn on syncing for contacts, calendars, etc again.  If prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload your data to the new iCloud account.

  • How to create a shared Apple ID with iCloud email address for household?

    I would like to create a shared Apple ID with iCloud email address that wife and I can share and access from separate devices? A shared household iCloud email address would be useful for email contact for creating/managing bill accounts for utilities, school for kids, bill pay etc…  I currently have my own Apple ID on my MBP.
    Thanks!
    dlaron

    If you mean that you would like to create a shared iCloud account with a shared iCloud email address and you already have an iCloud account of your own, you can do that by creating a new Apple ID (see https://appleid.apple.com/account), then use the ID to set up a secondary iCloud account on your Mac by going to System Preferences>Internet Accounts (or Mail,Contacts,Calendars)>iCloud and signing in with the new ID.  You can then turn enable Mail in this account to create the shared email account.  Secondary accounts are more limited than primary iCloud accounts, and will only sync Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders and Notes.
    Once the account is created, it can be added to iOS devices by signing in with the ID in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud.
    Or, if your only interest is in having a shared email account, you might consider just setting up a free Gmail account to share.

  • I have a problem with mail autofilling info email addresses. Emails sent to me the from looks like this: Holiday in the United States email address . I have no idea what this Holiday in the United States is...How can I fix/change to my name?

    I have an irritating problem with mail autofilling info in email addresses. Emails sent to me the from looks like this: Holiday in the United States <my email address>. I have no idea what this Holiday in the United States is or how it got to be there...How can I fix/change to my name?
    I fixed the To: autofilling incorrectly by deleting my email address from the Previous Recipients List, but is there a way to stop that from coming up on emails that I receive?

    Have you checked your Mac address book? If your email is saved somewhere in your address book with the name "Holidays in the United States" it might be adding the name automatically in Mac Mail.
    Alternatively, try this:
    Delete an Email Address from Auto-Complete in Mac OS X Mail
    To remove an email address from the auto-complete list in Mac OS X Mail:
    Start typing the recipient's address or name in a new message.
    Select the desired address from the auto-complete list as if you'd compose an email to them.
    Click the small down arrow in the recipient.
    Select Remove from Previous Recipients List from the menu.
    You can also search for the unwanted address directly in the previous recipients list:
    Select Window | Previous Recipients from the menu in Mac OS X Mail.
    Highlight the address you want to remove.You can highlight multiple addresses by holding down the Command key.
    Click Remove from List.

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!

  • TS4463 Sometimes, one of my iCloud folders becomes a sub folder and I have no idea why.  I can't move it to folder status with my mouse.  How to make it a folder again?

    Sometimes, when I am in iCloud mail one of my mail folders becomes a sub folder and I have no idea why.  I've tried to move the sub folder to the left using my mouse but it won't move.  I don't know whey this is happening and I don't know how to make the sub folder back to a folder.  Please help.

    OK, I was hoping that the problem would not effect a newly created folder.  I'm not sure it fix the problem, but if you have already tried I would try going to System Preferences>iCloud, unchecking Mail, restarting your Mac, then go back and check Mail again.  Then see if you can drag your subfolders to promote them to folders again.  (Incidentally, you don't drag them to the left to do this, you drag them up above the folder they are under until the position indicator shows that it is promoted to a folder, then drop it.)
