Mobileme deleted account help

I deleted my mobileme account since it was not synching my calendar with my husband's etc. I was too quick to do this, b/c after I did this I realized it erased all my events on my calendar b/c they were connected to my mobileme calendar. help!

MobileMe closed on 1 July and the contents of all accounts have now been deleted, so there is no possibilty of syncing with or retrieving data from it.
When you signed out of MobileMe you deleted the cached local copies of what was on the server. The only possibility is if you have a Time Machine backup which contains these cached copies, but even if you have you may have difficulties restoring the calendar. If you are able to restore them to appear in iCal they will be under your MobileMe login (as you can no longer log in it's possible you may not be able to get them to appear) and if they do you can move them to 'On My Mac' by following the process detailed in the second set of numbered instructions here:
http://www.wilmut.webspace.virginmedia.com/notes/icloudmovecalendars.html
(for iCloud read MobileMe throughout).
If you are able to restore the cached copies as separate .ics files they can be imported back into iCal; again this is problematic (this situation hasn't ever arisen in the past so there's no experience to call on).
If you don't have a backup then you can't retrieve your calendars.

Deleted account - help!!!

Hi,
In the process of setting up a new mail account (I'm switching providers), I accidentally deleted my main account settings, along with a week's worth of emails.
Is the account and these stored at root level or are they gone forever?
Many thanks in advance!
Colin.

Depending on your settings for removing mail from the server, it's entirely possible that whole week of mail is retrievable. You can use mail2web to check the server.

Hello aweirandyski.1975,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From what you're describing appears to be Activation Lock, a security measure provided by Apple that makes it harder for people to use a lost or stolen device. You will need to enter the password for the Apple ID the device is prompting you for.

I just did newest update, and all of a sudden my good old Yahoo! (yes, I know....) account won't send me notifications. I've tried deleting account, and setting it back up to no avail. Help please.......

I'm having problems after the newest upgrade with my iPhone. I am not receiving notifications on my email - (Yahoo!....yes, I know). I have tried deleting account, verifying my password is in correctly, etc. Any help would be appreciated for this non-techie.......mucho gracias!!

Forget everything I wrote about bluetooth device interference having anything to do with this issue. I was obviously headed down a rabbit trail with this suggestion.
What I've since determined (that is working for me) is to focus in on the small round bumpers on the backside of the trackpad. I suspect that over time these probably loosen and become more sensitive or even stuck. This might explain the auto-selecting in the erratic behavior of the trackpad.
As a workaround, I used a felt cloth (folded several times) to elevate the backside of the trackpad so that the bumpers no longer touch my desk. This takes a loose or stuck bumper switch out of the picture. Then I enabled the trackpad features for "Tap to click" and "Secondary click," which are located at: System Preference > Trackpad > Point & Click.
Only if you have serious computer repair skills would I advise attempting to adjust the sensitivy of the bumper switch: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Repairing+Magic+Trackpad+Click+Feature/6171/1
As for myself, I'll be purchasing a new trackpad tomorrow morning. I love this device, but it seems that once the bumpers begin to wear out, they do so quite abruptly, and your best course is to get a replacement before pulling out any hair you still have left.
Again, my apologies about the mis-cue on the bluetooth issue. Good luck!

TS3899 Can't send or receive email on iPhone 5 nor my iPad 2? Tried hard resetting, deleting account then adding again-- no luck! Please help!!

CAn someone please tell me how to fix my email problem-- all of a sudden I can't receive or send email-- it's an Apple problem-- cause I can get online-- tried the hard reset and deleting account and adding again-- no luck
thanks
mary

you still didn't answer the question.... unless you mean to say that you have an AT&T e-mail account. (e.g. @att.net)
If that's what you mean, they use Yahoo for e-mail services. Yahoo's mail servers are notoriously bad. This comes up here at least several times a week. The problem is on the Yahoo end. Trust me, the AT&T rep you spoke to doesn't know what they are talking about. Removing and re-adding the account increases the odds that you will actually hit a working server, but it's not guaranteed to do so.
Set up a gmail account or iCloud account and consider switching.

TS3899 deleted account and reopened it , made it worse, now cant do anything, it wont open emails says has no content and cant access them at all

Cant get into email account all of a sudden. Tried shutting down, deleted account and then opened new account....get into mail....says there are messages but they have no content, cant, delete them or even get into them....help!!! oh and when I go throug HOTMAIL on safari I have no problems

I'm having the same problem as the OP, I can't find that file "profiles.ini"
can't re-install firefox, deleted all files related to Mozilla and Firefox, still locked out by missing Firefox profile
I posted on my own problem recently w/ no response (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/search?a=1&asked_by=GPStyne&w=2),
so far all posts on this support page have been confusing and I've been unable to find any of the things they spoke of trying to change it.
at this point I'm begrudgingly running Safari hoping someone can help me fix this, can't believe i can't just delete all and reinstall like a normal program/app

My iCloud address on the iPad needs to be changed. If I press "delete account" it tells me I will lose all the content including pictures. How can I change it? I see other people have had the same problem

I have had to change my e mail address but I cannot work out how to amend it on my iCloud account. If I press "delete account" the box appears telling me that I will lose all content including photos if I continue. The box asking for a password keeps appearing but I just press cancel and continue.
I have not attempted to upgrade to iOS 7 until this problem is sorted. Can anyone help please?

If you mean that you created a new icloud account using a new email address as the primary address, then when changing to that account on a device, all data maintained by the old account will be deleted. I was not aware that photos are included. But as for photos, ALWAYS sync them to a computer for archiving, never rely on icloud as your only backup.
If you want to keep the contacts, etc. data from the old account, then go to Settings>icloud and turn off the services, one at a time. When doing so, you are given the choice to keep the data local or delete from the device. Later, when doing Delete Account and logging into the new account, your data will sync up to it.
If, on the other hand, your changed email address is just an alias in the existig icloud account, then there's no reason to delete the account as the alias is just another link to the same account.

HT5312 Alright, I have two apple ID's and I deleted the other on a whim a while back. Now whenever I need to update the iphoto or iMovie, it says to sign in into my deleted account, but I don't remember my old account's password either.

I currently had two apple ID's and I deleted the other on a whim a while back. Now whenever I need to update the iphoto or iMovie, it says to sign in into my deleted account, but I don't remember my old account's password nor the security questions. Any Help Please?

Can I delete account without deleting messages?

I have old email messages from friends and family that I want to keep in my mail folders, but I no longer use that email account. Can I delete the account without deleting all the historic email associated with it? Or do I have to look at that now grayed account name forever in my sidebar?

thanks. That is just what I needed. I currently have three accounts, including the one I'm deleting.
If I understand you right, all I need to do is move all my messages out of the INBOX of the account I'm deleting, and into other folders I created under the ON MY MAC section. Deleted account messages will only be deleted from the INBOX. (well, HELP should have said so, instead it just said ALL mail from that account will be deleted).
Now, if I SENT mail from the account I delete, that account's mail in the SENT folder be deleted also because it has not been moved into a folder I created in the ON MY MAC section, Correct?

How to delete the home folder of a deleted account?

After I set up a new account, I transferred everything from my old macbook pro to my new iMac (so it has a moutain lion system. I'm sure you know it. Just want to make it clear ) through migration assistance from time machine. Then I realized that an extra account (my old one) plus many unnecessary data had been transferred to my new iMac. Therefore, I decided to delete this old account.
HOWEVER, when I deleted the account, I failed to delete the home folder--I chose to delete it securely; but after it started backing up, I simply cancel the backup (which is a HUGE mistake) Then I found the account was deleted but its home folder stayed-- it occupied over 150GB of my new iMac.
Could anyone tell me how I can delete the home folder securely?
in addition, since I only want to transfer iphoto pictures, iTune music and some important documents to my new account, should I simply copy thme to an external drive and transfer them to my new account?
Thanks a lot for your help!

In system preferences, create a new account again, using the short name of the "deleted" account. You may be prompted to re-use the old home folder. Log out and log in to test it worked. Then log in as your new admin, and do the delete process again. Don't choose to securely delete this time - just a regular delete.
When you have time to spare, go to Disk Utility, and use the Erase tab to securely erase free space on the drive. This will accomplish the same thing that your originally tried to do. Use the fastest method - anything more secure is a waste of time. You may need to run it overnight - it can take several hours.

I have 1 apple ID linked with 2 account help me please.

I got a new ipad2 from genious bar, the old one was broken. when i login to the game center it's showing me i create a new account. when i login to gamecenter again it is my old account. I open the Gunbros app, the notification shows use exsiting account or create a new acount, or cancell. i chose use my exsiting account. then i login with my new game center account. exit the gunbros app, and open the game center, it's the new account. how to delete the new game center account linked with my apple id. please help.

You can't delete accounts unfortunately. Your question is a bit confusing because you're logging in and out. Forget about the new account and just use the old. Log out of the GC account you don't want, and log in with the account you want. If Gunbros app is asking you which account to use choose existing account ie the account you last logged into Game Centre with.

I just got a new iPhone and i set up iCloud on my girlfriend's account. To change it on settings it says delete account. Will this delete her all her data and back up data for iCloud on her iPhone and iPad?

Delete the account on your phone. This will not delete any data on her phone or iPad, or data stored in iCloud.

How to delete sender personalities from deleted accounts?

I'm helping a friend eliminate several obsolete mail accounts in the Tiger Mail program.
She has deleted the old accounts (in Mail Preferences), and now has a single .mac mail account which she is using via Apple Mail, not the browser.
When she composes a new message, the default sending account is still her identity in one of the deleted accounts. She can use the pop-up to switch her identity to her dot-mac account, but how can she make that the default -- and eliminate the obsolete ID from the deleted account?
FYI, the deleted account ID shows in Red on the identity popup when composing mail.
She has rebooted her G5 iMac and the problem persists.
She is running an early version of Tiger (10.4.2?), but I'm not going to talk her through upgrading that over long-distance phone.
The Mail Preferences for her dot-mac mail account appear to be in order and the account works fine. But the deleted account identity still hangs around as the default when composing.

Hi Boece: I'm not familiar with mai preferences within 10.4.2: But maybe give this a try. Within Mail preferences go to "Composing tab" and check mid way down the pane to "Send new mail from" within the drop down list select the account required form there. Good Luck

Itunes account now appears as the mobileme icloud account??

I am using a comcast email with my itunes account. using an iphone 4 and ipad
When I installed ios 5, it asked me to put in my mobileme account (old-expired) to set up icloud.
After finishing the installation, when I went to install a new app, I get asked for my password for my xxx.me account, not my xxx.comcast account, and it will not go thru
How do I resolve this issue?
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.
