The Apple ID on my iPod Touch no longer exists
I have an iPod Touch and the Apple ID no longer exists because it was removed from the server at my former place of work, yet I am asked to enter the PW for it. Also, it shows up in other places. Is there a way to have it removed from Apple's database? Also, the User ID that I routinely use is somehow associated with it so now I cannot use it.
Help...

Try changing the name (email address you use)
I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
How do I change my Apple ID Name or personal information?
You can change your Apple ID Name at My Apple ID. Click on Manage your Apple ID and sign in with your Apple ID name and password. Click Edit and enter the new information, then click Save Changes. Changes take effect immediately. You can also use My Apple ID to change your personal information, such as your mailing address or email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
And maybe:
How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. See Changing your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.
And if necessary contact iTunes:
Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us

my iPhone 4 keeps asking me to enter the apple ID for an account which no longer exists….please help
I should have also said that the only reason this is causing me an issue is because I have bought a new phone and I want to sell this one. But I cannot erase all data because I cannot turn off find my phone because it keeps asking for the password for an account which no longer exists…. have tried so many suggestions but nothing is working...

Is the apple watch compatible with iPod touch
I Know the apple watch is compatible with iPhone but what about iPod touch? Would it work with Bluetooth?
I do know that it will work with the iPhone 5 and later, and I doubt that Apple wouldn't make the Apple Watch compatible with the iPod Touch. The fact that the Apple Watch will be able to make calls concerns me. You can not make calls on the iPod Touch with any built-in app, so that might make the iPod Touch excluded from being compatible with the Apple Watch. I am almost one hundred percent sure that IF the Apple Watch is compatible with the iPod Touch it will only be compatible with the 5th generation.

My daughter shares my apple id on her ipod touch. i recently got an i pad and now i'm getting all of her instant messages and face time calls. Is there a way to change her contact information for those two areas so i don't get them on my i pad but keep the same apple id for purchases? Thank you

I have an apple id for my ipod touch at home. My company is planning to issuing Ipads. Should I use the same apple id on the ipad for those apps I purchase and would like to use on my work ipad?
Yes, otherwise you will have to pay for those apps again. If an app is purchased by one Apple ID, he/she will be able to redownload it again for no cost (note: this does apply to songs, but NOT to movies).

When I try to download anything from iTunes or the App Store on my iPod Touch, my sister's Apple ID pops up instead of mine. How can I get my iPod Touch to display my Apple ID and ask for my password rather than display my sister's Apple ID?
You can try to tell the iPod to use yours:
1. Tap Settings
2. Navigate to "iTunes & App Store"
3. Tap Apple ID:
4. Tap "Sign Out"
5. Sign in to your account. -

Got two apple ids on an ipod touch. How do you make one the default?
Got two apple ids on an ipod touch. One child shared account with other sibling. Has now set up own apple id and wants that one to be default id. Every time goes to apple id, shared one comes up. How do we change the settings so that new id is the default?
Without knowing what you are doing when the other ID pops up:
CHANGE ID
The ID is used in the following locations and y have to change them.
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
Settings>GameCenter
Settings>iCloud
and Settings>iTunes and App store
You have to sign out of ID (for iCloud you delete the iCloud account from the iPod) and sign in with other ID.
Note:
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
If the iPod has iOS 7 then you have the enter the password for Apple ID presently sign in Settings>iCloud.
Also, a Restriction can be set (Settings>General>Restrictions) the prevents changing accounts -
when I try to upgrade the ios software on my ipod touch 4 g flashes Apple . Heip me please!
Next try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
what does apple plan to do for the people with 2nd gen ipod touch who want to have facebook and other apps now only compatible with ios 5?

Nothing. The 2nd Gen Touch is OBSOLETE and is WAY past its support life. If you want to run the newer apps you have to buy a newer iPod. -
how do i delete my cell # from my daughters ipod touch? I have changed the #'s in my apple id but it is still using the other cell # in their ipod touch for imessage which allows them to send recieve and read texts to that #.
You can only uncheck the cell phone number. The only way to delete it is to use for FaceTime and Messages an Apple ID not associated with the iPhone.

how to erase the older apple id on my ipod touch because now it is in activation code but the first user of the ipod never response to my email
If you've encountered the activation lock, you cannot, and Apple won't unlock that device for you; it's an anti-theft measure.
