Want to delete a unused apple account

want to delete a unused apple account,how to?

Welcome to the Apple community.
You can't delete the account, just the info from your devices. Just don't use it, if you don't want to.

  • I cannot access my old email address anymore, however I have used it for my apple ID and now I want to delete it because the account has never been verified in the first place so my password for it doesn't work. What do I do?

    I cannot access my old email address anymore, however I have used it for my apple ID and now I want to delete it because the account has never been verified in the first place so my password for it doesn't work. So when I want to download apps I have to sign in with apple id but I can't so I made a new one, However I can't seem to be able to delete the old one. What do I do?

    You can't merge Apple IDs.  You also can't cancel (delete) and existing ID, you can only choose to stop using it.
    If your old ID was compromised and you can no longer access it, you'll have to contact Apple for assistance.  Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then then 'Apple ID account Security’.

  • HT5361 I want to delete my Verizon email account but I don't want to lose all of the messages I saved over the years into various mailboxes that I created "On My Mac" in Apple Mail.  Will they be erased / deleted when I delete the account?

    I want to delete my Verizon email account but I don't want to lose all of the messages I saved over the years into various mailboxes that I created "On My Mac" in Apple Mail.  Will they be erased / deleted when I delete the account?

    Yes, it's a POP account.  I kinda thought that the old messages would be safe in mailboxes "On My Mac," but since it's an irrevocable choice, I was reluctant to pull the trigger.  However, the suggestion above from keg55 relieves my concerns on that score; I'll make a backup copy before I delete the account just to be on the safe side.
    Thanks very much to both WZZZ and keg55, I really appreciate it!

  • How do I delete my old apple account,it's not accepting my birthdate either?

    How do I delete an old apple account?  For some reason it's not accepting my birthdate information!  Thank -you!

    OK that's what Ithought you were talking about.
    You can't actually delete an old Apple ID. You just sign into the new ID to use that one. Your old ID must be popping up because you used it in the past to purchase content with it. You cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another Apple ID. You have to continue to use the old ID if you want to update content that was used to purchase with that ID.
    Did you sign into your new account in the settings and you can't stay signed in?

  • I want to delete my current exchange account. How can I achieve this and not lose stored information such as contacts, photos etc. please help. Thank you.

    I want to delete my current exchange account and replace it with my new one. How can I achieve this and not lose my contacts, photos, etc associated with this account? Please help..
    Thank you,

    Bad idea.
    What information do you want to share, exactly?  You can share contacts, reminders, and calendars with other iCloud users without the need for both of you to use the same iCloud account.  You can authorize both phones to use apps purchased under the same Apple ID without sharing an iCloud account.
    Sharing an iCloud account is a bad idea in general. There is too much opportunity for someone to damage or delete data that will affect both.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only wipe your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.

  • I want to delete my mobile me account not just from my iPhone but from existence. I want to delete it so that no emails can be received to it, and the sender would receive an undeliverable message. Is this possible?

    I want to delete my mobile me account not just from my iPhone but from existence. I want to delete it so that no emails can be received to it, and the sender would receive an undeliverable message. Is this possible?

    No, you can stop using the account, but you cannot delete it.

  • I need to know how to delete an old apple account and to create a new account because i forgot some related information

    i need to help to delete an old apple account and to reate a new account because i forgot some related information for the old accounts

    If you have iCloud and/or iTunes accounts just sign out of them (however iTunes Store purchases cannot be transferred to a different account). You can create a new ID at http://appleid.apple.com - you will need a different non-Apple email address.
    However if you've forgotten the password to the original account, go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with your iCloud login. A new password will be sent to your associated email address. If this doesn't work you will have to contact Support. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com; click' See all products and services', then 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID', then 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'

  • How do i delete a previous apple account and replace it with my appleid

    how do i delete a previous apple account and replace it with my appleid

    Are you saying you have a previously owned iPhone that is still Activation Locked to the previous user?
    if so, that user must release the iPhone.  Until that happens, the iPhone will remain Activation Locked and useless to you.

  • I've changed my apple ID and updated my details in iTunes however I wanted to delete my old email account...will all of the apps linked to this account be deleted?

    I've changed my apple ID and updated my details in ituneshowever I want to delete my old email address...will I lose my apps linked to this email adress?

    If you updated your existing iTunes account then those apps will be linked to the updated version of your account (you may need to log out of your account on your iPad and then log back in for the account to be refresged on your iPad). If you created a new account then they will remain tied to your old account, and only that old account will be able to re-download them and download updates to its apps.

  • Is there a way to delete an unused iCloud account?

    Hi!
    I have bought an used iPhone from a retail store. They have forgotten to detach their iCloud account from the phone, and I realized it today. I have tried contacting them, but they have disappeared, and now I'm stucked on their Cloud. Furthermore, I have taken a backup from this device, and brought this backup to my new iPhone, and this cloud storage went there, so now I have 2 iPhones, with unused iCloud account. Yes, the restoration of the backup for my new device was a faliure of mine, but my question is,
    who do i have to arrenge, to delete this account? The retail shop, where the iPhone (used one) came from has disappeared or gone bankrupt or I dont know where they are, so i can't figure out the code without their help.
    Any help would be a pleasure.
    Thanks in advance

    Welcome to the Apple community Gabouka.
    Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.
    When you say they disappeared, do you mean the whole retail store.

  • I want to create a new apple account and switch my iPod Touch over to it. How can i do this without erasing all of the data?

    I have an iPod Touch (4th generation) and found i would like to switch it over to a new apple account. Is there anyway for this to happen without deleting any data?

    Yes, just go to Settings>App and iTunes store and sign out of existing ID and sing into the other.
    The Apple ID is also used in:
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>iCloud
    - Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    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.

  • I want to make a new Apple account separate from my parent's account, will I be able to keep my previously purchased apps from their account if the files are on my computer?

    The title says it all. I use my parent's account for my iTunes on my laptop currently, and I would like to make my own Apple account. My question is if I will still be able to use the applications and games that I downloaded [purchased] while using this computer. All of the files for the apps are on this computer, I'm just not sure if I will be able to put them on my iPod [2G] once I make the account.
    Thanks in advance

    You can't delete an account, only iTunes Support can potentially do so, but you would lose all of the account's purchases if they do so - all downloads are tied to the account that downloaded them, they cannot be transferred to another account.
    If you do create a new account then there are instructions on this page of how to do so without giving credit card details : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method.
