Icloud - how to delete one of the iphones tied to the account

Hello
On my icloud account my iphone 4 and my boyfriends iphone 4 are both tied to one account. We both just updated our software to the iOS 6.0 and now all of our contacts have merged. How can we unmerge them or how can I delete his phone from my account?
thanks

Which app?  If it's one of the pre-installed Apple apps, just leave it unless you have a good reason.  These boards are riddled with questions from people who have deleted pre-installed apps only to find later that either it was something important that they needed or that they changed their minds and wanted it back again.  Leaving these apps will not impact the performance of your machine.
If that's not it, take a look here:

  • HT4314 I have a iPad and iPhone with the same Apple ID, but on Game Center I have used the same id for both devices and they are two different profiles and I was wondering how to have one of the accounts on both devices.

    Hi Jamesdwills,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    If you are using the same Apple ID on both devices, the Game Center profile should be the same.
    Check out this information from the iPad User Guide.  Try signing out of the Game Center on both devices and then sign back in with the correct Apple ID:

    Game Center settings
    Go to Settings > Game Center, where you can:
    Sign out (tap your Apple ID)
    Allow invites
    Let nearby players find you
    Edit your Game Center profile (tap your nickname)
    Get friend recommendations from Contacts or Facebook
    Specify which notifications you want for Game Center. Go to Settings > Notifications > Game Center. If Game Center doesn’t appear, turn on Notifications.
    Change restrictions for Game Center. Go to Settings > General > Restrictions.

  • How to delete one of the two admin accounts on my Mac

    When I migrated from a ppc to OSX I found that I have 2 admin accounts. One from the old computer. I want to delete the old account but am afraid
    That action will do a lot of harm

    Ensure that account's not currently logged in, open the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences, unlock the pane, select it, and press the - button.

  • 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.

  • HT201441 I can't get a hold of the previous owners iCloud how else can i erase the account

    I can't get a hold of the previous owners iCloud account or Apple ID ,how else can I erase his account so I could activate my phone

    So after hitting "Delete" for the second time (which I did not do because I did not want to delete my account) it asks for a password?
    Can't the phone just be reset back to factory?
    Settings>General>Reset>[choose your option]
    or
    Reset throught the iTunes you will be syncing with?

  • Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    iTunes Match is a subscription system that allows you to upload your own music (e.g. coped from CDs) to the cloud so that it shows (in the cloud) on your devices and computers without having to sync/copy it.
    Automatic downloads allows to, for example, buy an app on your computer's iTunes and have it automatically download on your phone without having to connect and sync it or go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your download and download it yourself - but doing that, going to the Purchased tab and redownloading an app, should get it associated.
    But no, I'm not aware of any problems that not having it associated causes.

    imessage on my iMac has created two iMessage account both asking for Apple ID....and no option to - (delete) one of the two duplicate accounts....how can I delete one of them it just bothers me due to sign in issues....when signed into one it signs out the other and goes inactive I just wanted to delete one of them so this issue doesn't happen....why doesn't it give the option to delete ONLY these two accounts

    1. Don't confuse "Apple ID" with iTunes Account ID.  You can have many Apple IDs but only one iTunes account active at a time.
    2. If you "changed" your iTunes account ID, you actually have 2 accounts - one under the old name plus the new name.
    3. You can't merge the accounts - they remain separate.  Apps purcahsed under the old account name will update ONLY WHEN THE PHONE IS SIGNED IN TO THE OLD ACCOUNT NAME  and visa versa.
    4. Likewise, you can sync only the apps, music, media purchased under the account the phone AND iTunes are signed in to.

  • How to delete multiple songs from iPhone 5S without losing form iTunes? The unchek function has not worked. Why?

    How to delete multiple songs from iPhone 5S without losing form iTunes? The unchek function has not worked. Why?

    Sorry I had to reply through your profile Gail from Maine, my PC has java issues. In any event, when I delete them directly from my device everything is perfect and cool. However, in the rare instance I want to add new music that I actually buy in stores (I know, quite the unique and old-fashioned idea...but hey Im an audiophile) once I upload the tunes, everytime I sync my library it re-adds everything that I spent hours deleting. In a perfect world, I thought I could maintain a massive iTunes Library, and add or delete (remove) songs from my iPhone to save both memory or keep my iPhone selections more current/apt to my musical "tastes" at that time. I know about the whole playlist thing, but thought there might be an easier way. ie - checking/un-checking the little box next to the song name, and then doing a sync. Again, everytime I do this however, whether everything is checked or un-checked it adds the entire library! So frustrating. Any suggestions. Thank you graiously in advance for your help.

    I had made a copy of the main revel file on my mac, and then i put it in my google drive folder for safety. I accidentally deleted one of the two libraries form my iPhone. I opened it up and panicked and thankfully I guess I had a backup of the other library in my spouses phone... but mine is still gone. I don't have them saved to my computer... the pictures are important and I really really need them back.  Is there a way for me to get the pictures back from what I believed at the time was a smart way to backup when i made a duplicate of that main mac file to my google drive? The best way to let me know is my email... [email protected]  I am really relying on you guys if there is a way?

  • Why are two pages yoked when I prepare a newsletter in Pages?  How can I delete one without the other?

    Why are two pages yoked when I prepare a newletter?  How do I delete one without the other?

    They are all part of one Section. Just as you do not (hopefully) rip pages out at random from books, the pages of a Section are linked by the text that flows from one to the other.
    If you want to move or delete particular page/s Insert a Section Break at the end of the page before.

    Pls, how i can delete one of the international keyboards?

    You can remove one or more of the keyboards that you've selected via the Edit button at the top right of Settings > General > Keyboards > International Keyboards (the Edit button will be greyed out when there is only one keyboard left selected)

  • I have 2 email addresses set up on my iphone 5, 1 can send mail and the other can't... have tried deleting and adding the account, no luck, have tried all suggestions... anyone help?

    I have recently purchased the iphone 5S and have two AOL email accounts set up on it. They could both receive and send mail on the first day, but from the second day only 1 can send mail (both still receive). I get an message saying "Unable to send mail. A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed." This has been the response now for 3 days and suddenly this morning, I was able to send an email from this account, but only the one and now it's back to that same message. I have deleted and added the account again, using various methods. I even reset my phone and set it all up again from beginning with no luck. It is very frustrating and I am unsure why I can't send from both accounts, especially being that they are the same provider. I have read forums and it appears many have this same problem and I wondered if anyone has had it recently on this phone and how they fixed it. Someone said just use the AOL app to send from this account, yes that can be done, but it's inconvenient having to sign in all the time when i have a mail app that should work automatically. Any suggestions would be welcomed!!

    I am not sure if this issue is going to help you but lets give it a try.
    I know that where im from, which is the Netherlands, I am not able to sent e-mails from my iPhone or any other mobile device by using 3G or a random WIFI acces point. The provider only allowes you to sent e-mails when you are connected to a network of there own. Which means if you have provider "101" and your email settings are set up for this provider in your iPhone but your using the network of a friend of yours which is provider "202" you cannot sent emails from his network. Though you can receive them you may not sent.
    As I said, I am not aware if this issue is the same for you totaly depents on the country and provider your using.
