I seem to have more than one apple ID. How can I get rid of old ones?

I seem to have more than one apple I D. Apple keep rejecting my password so I create new one. iPhone still seemd to use original ID. Apps get attached to old IDs. Can't log into game centre on old ID or use my nickname. Says its already in use! By me!

Roger.  Can you drop in to HT4436 Multiple iCloud accounts on OS X: Apple Support Communities and see if you can help the OP?  Thanks,
OT

  • How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device? It still shows up as purchased books on "Icloud".

    How can I get rid of old books that I have deleted from my device but still shows up as "purchased books" on "Icloud". I don't want to see some of these books at all. I can sort by one that are PDFs and ones currently on device, but it still gives option to show those old titles. Does anyone know how to erase your "Icloud" history, please?

    Nooooooo! lol... If I want to download again I will, I don't want an electronic trail. Plus when I have Ibooks open, sometimes I will accidently hit the item and it will immediatly try to download it. The problem with that is that its "Time magazines Best Photos of 2012" etc and it locks up my IPAD cuz of sheer size of the book. So I would like it gone from the history. Isn't there a way to clear the history? 

  • On my iPad 2 at the bottom of screen it looks almost as if though the screen has folded up for about one inch.  How can i get rid of this?

    As per the heading.  Foldover at bottom of screen.  How can I get rid of it?

    Reset the iPad and see if that makes the screen return to normal.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • My week old MacBook w/ retina has half of its storage taken up by the "other" category. I don't have any downloads or backups. How can I get rid of it?

    I now no longer have any storage and it is only 1 week old!!

    For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
              iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as  Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
    Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Ignore any other messages that appear in the Terminal window.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • I have an outstanding event notification that will not allow me to accept, decline or maybe. Neither can I delete the event, despite it taking place over 6 months ago. Sent numerous reports to Apple. How can I get rid of this?

    I have an outstanding notification on my calendar on iCloud. Despite the event taking place over six months ago, it is still showing as an outstanding event. I have tried to 'decline, maybe or accept' the event invitation and each time it tells me the calendar is not repsponding and send to Apple, which I do and yet I still cannot get rid of it. Any other event invitations that I accept etc will disappear, except this one. Help!

    Does this apply?

  • I am using Firefox 4.01 on a Mac, I have entered usernames while logging into Yahoo and sometimes, because networks are slow, I have put the password in too - How can I get rid of usernames offered at the login stage?

    When I go to log into Yahoo now it offers me a list of possible log on ids. Because of mistakes in typing some of them have the passwords on them too. How can I remove this list?

    That worked and was really convenient - and I wouldn't have guessed it in a year. (Well I didn't guess it all last year anyway!)
    Thanks

  • I have enough free space on my storage but yet it won't let me install the app. I have checked the size of the app and I have more than enough room. How can I fix this?

    If you could post a resolution or an explanation it would be much appreciated. Regards

    Do yo really have enough free storage?
    To download/install an app directly to the iPod you need available storage equal to about three times the file download size. Syncing the app to the iPod requires a lot less. Thus you either have to free up more storage or sync the app from your computer.

  • I never installed the IOS8 in my iphone 5 but the app is still there as it was downloaded from Apple.  How can I get rid of it?

    Deleting uninstalled IOS8 app

    Again, it depends on what you have been using. If you did not request the IMAP account from Comcast/Xfinity yet, then you still have the POP account. However, the phone may recognize Comcast as an IMAP account. You can fool the device to allow you to set it up as POP. You are correct that the POP mail servers are mail.comcast.net for incoming mail, and it is smtp.comcast.net. I don't use a Mac computer, so I'm not familiar with those settings. If it is necessary to delete and reconfigure your account on the iPhone and you have not registered for the IMAP Comcast account, and you and your husband are using the same account, then after deleting the account, when you begin to enter it again, misspell your email address or your password so the verification will fail. Then you get the option to choose between IMAP or POP. You can then choose POP and enter your correct settings. Make sure you enter the username and password even where it says optional, and you will need to use SSL as well.

  • HT1420 i have more than 5 apple products.  how can i get them to all be authorized under one id?

    I have more than 5 apple products and I want to have them all autorized under one id.  How do I do that for the itunes?  It seems ridiculous that apple would limit me to 5 products or less.

    The limit is 5 computers and as far as I know that can't be increased- are you including iPads, iPhones and/or iPod Touches in your products ? If so then they don't count towards the 5.

  • I have problem with my iphone 4s my battery is not keeping charge. how can I get help with this one. it is less than a year that I purchased this cell.

    I have problem with my iphone 4s my battery is not keeping charge. how can I get help with this one? it is less than a year that I purchased this cell.

    I would like to know the answer to that one.  I realized this was happening just after upgradeing my iOS to 6.  Then when I looked up my purchase date, I was about 5 days past my one year warranty.  So I'm dead in the water.  Apple will replace the battery, but it will be about $80+.  I took it to the Apple store, and they checked a bunch of stuff, but said that it seemed ok.  I'm debating getting a battery for a more reasonable price off of ebay.  But if it's the iOS thats draining the battery, then I'm not going to be able to help it.  I wish I knew a better way to tell if its the battery, the phone, or the iOS.

  • I cut and pasted a description from the Internet. It posted as a link in iPhoto. It seems to have made a global change--all my descriptions are now blue, underlined, and Times Roman 12 rather than Arial white. How can I get this back to the default?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

    Hi,
    According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

  • I have got two Apple ID how do I get rid of one of them

    I have got two Apple ID how do I get rid of one

    At present there is no way to combine 2 Apple IDs and once an Apple ID is created it never goes away.
    All you can do is Not Use the one you no longer want. Just let it fade away. The only problem with that is anything that is now registered to it or that you bought from any of the Apple store with it can not be transferred to some other Apple ID. So you would need to repurchase those items under the Apple ID you want to keep.
