System offline - coincided with removing TV package from my account
On 7/17 I removed the TV package from my account, as you may have guessed from the post title. It took a few days, but I noticed that the home monitoring and control was no longer sending notifications. When I tried to log into the app, it told me "you do not have home monitoring and control" - same with the web portal designed to manage this service.
My first call to tech support went something like this:
"Are you sure that no one accidentally turned this off on my 7/17 call?"
"There is absolutely no way that could have happened."
Voice mail from Verizon, later:
"Someone accidentally turned this off. It should work now."
My next call, after the system still did not work, resulted in the agent asking me to do a reset of the gateway device, and to wait 30 minutes - call back if it's not working. Guess what, that didn't work - nice that the agent got off the call so quickly.
After several additional calls, it is not working. I now have an open and "escalated" support ticket, essentially useless equipment, and no faith whether the service is actually enabled in all the right places on Verizon's side.
Solved!
Go to Solution.
Well, good luck, you will need it. When something like that happens they normally have to rebuild your whole account. And since they don't sell HM&C anymore, they may not beable to setup a new account with that option. :-(
My suggestion is to ride the hard. Call several times a day if you have to and get a superviser's name, deal only with that person and demand a daily update. Here's the direct number in case you don't already have it: 866-785-8153
If they can't get you working again and you want to sell your equipment, let me know.
Oh, and first rule of tech-support, don't let the tech off the phone until the problem is resolved or they have to send you to the next level support.

How to remove a package from package structure?
Hello profs,
i have a problem. I add a package 'A' to another package 'B' in the package builder.
Now i don't know how to remove package 'A' from the list of package 'B'.
I have not found in the docu of package builder how to remove a package from the included list.
Has somebody an idea how to do it?
Thanks a lot.I found out that the relation between the packages saved in table TDEVC.
Field PARENTCL contains the surrounding package 'B' of the package 'A' field DEVCLASS.
At the moment the only way to remove the package is to modify the table.
But i look for another possibility for this issue.
Best regards

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.

somebody uses my apple id for facetime on his iphone how can i remove his phone from my account?
Last Spring I received a couple of emails to an alias I set up a long time ago under mac mail with mac.com - not my main ID - at mac.com. The mail had the Icloud extension. I just deleted it.
I then received a couple of e-mails forwarded to the same alias that came from a non-apple account that led me to search to see if the company was legit - it was. Using a non-apple hidden account I sent that non-apple account an email informing them apparently when they registered the ID or alias as an ICLOUD extension - apple did not check for duplication in accounts or aliases that were not in the Icloud.
I also sent feedback to Apple telling them to fix it and apparently they did - along with the person who replicated my alias.
On this site there were a number of postings from people who also had problems with mac mail and Icloud who resolved it by contacting Apple and getting the accounts cleared up. -
Hello everyone!i got a problem about this used ipad2 that i had bought from a friend of my friend.the problem is i cannot activate it i asked my friend to contact the previous owner..according to my friend the previous owner had already removed the device from his account..but still it keeps on asking me to enter the email and password..what should i do now?maybe the previous owner didn't want to give me his Email add ppassword for his own personal reason..please help me this ipad has been in here since April 2014..thank you
The person who sold you the device can remove the ID without giving it to you. Follow the steos in "What to do if you no longer have the device." In the artcle below. If you can't find the person or they won't do it you're stuck with a unusable device.

Contact old iPhone user to get them to remove the iPhone from their account.
I am very frustrated. This isn't a question for say, but venting about my anger towards Apple. I bought by phone from a 3rd party who bought the same phone from another person on eBay. The iPhone was water damaged. I have a background in Radio Repair, so I fix phones on the side. Not really for profit, but as a hobby. I am now stuck with a working phone that has the stupid iCloud activation notice. I don't understand why apple can't either give you the e-mail of the person, or since that might be considered a security breach for some reason, email the previous user for us requesting they remove the unused phone from their account. Or is it apple trying to make more money, forcing me to buy a new iPhone.
I have two iPhone 4 that I use, and I wanted an iPhone 5. Well now I have a iPhone 5 that's a paperweight.
btw. the previous owner never used facetime, so that trick is out !!!!
It would be cool if an option on the activation help could automaticly have the option to contact the previous owner on our behalf, and give them the instructions to remove the phone from their account. Or given them a chance to respond back if the phone was lost or stolen.You are raising a number of issues, all of which limit Apple due to abiding by privacy and security. We are all fellow users and not Apple employees so cannot speak for Apple, but describe what we understand to be the conditions.
Release of personal information, inclucing email, simply cannot ever happen for privacy concerns. Plus uncertainty over just who the current owner of a device might be and how that device has been setup. You could end up going in bigger circles as you indicate more than one previous owner of the iPhone.
The Activation Lock is an anti-theft protection that Apple has been praised by law enforcement for implementing. While it is an inconvenience for reselling some devices when previous owners do not properly cleanse their devices, there have been numerous cases brought up on here that are pretty conclusively dealing with stolen iOS devices.
All that can be done is somehow contact the previous owner and have that person remove the iPhone from his/her iCloud account so you can use it, as you have acknowledged. Apple cannot get involved for legal reasons. -
Remove one phone from one account
My husband has synchronized his phone on my icloud accouny. all his contacts have merged with mine. How can I remove his phone from my account?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Get him to turn off each syncing service one by one (settings > iCloud), by doing this he should be given the opportunity to save his data to his phone. Once all the services are turned off, he can scroll to the bottom of the iCloud settings and delete the account.
He should then create his own iCloud account and merge the data on his phone with it.
Once that is done you can both set about deleting the data on your phones that you don't want. -
How do you remove credit card # from iTunes account
How do you remove credit card # from iTunes account without entering a new one because added money to account from gift card?
On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link. If you are doing it on your iPhone then try tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and select 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
