Want to delete an old email address

I Would like to delete an email address that I used to use to access all Apple services

To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPad, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted.  If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPad on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    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.

    des7931,
    You should be able to go to your software on your computer and click on the >Scanner Actions section.
    Then click on>Scan to E-Mail Wizard
    This should bring up a screen to edit, change, or delete the stored email addresses for scan to email.

  • I deleted my old email address and added a new one, after my iPhone died iCloud keeps popping up asking for the password of my old email address. I can't remember my password and the account is still gone, it pops up every few seconds. How can I fix this?

    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • I deleted my old email address and one of my notes disappeared.  How do I get it back?

    I deleted an old email address from my iphone5 and one of my notes from notepad disappeared.  How do I get it back?

    Hi, MissLouie.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    Some email accounts allow for note syncing.  I would recommend adding the email account back to the device and turn note syncing on.

  • How can I delete an old email address from autofill?

    I have an old, (email address that is not in my address book) that is constantly showing up in my autofill when I want to send an email and it is driving me nuts.  I've tried restoring my phone; clearing prevous receipents list.  Can anyone please help??????

    The only way to erase this data is to restore your phone as a new device in iTunes, NOT from backup. All data on your phone will be erased, including these email addresses. Follow this by syncing your iTunes content & other data back to your phone. You have to decide if it's worth going through this or just living with it.

  • How to delete an old email address from an Apple ID

    We have a number of iPads, iPhones, iPods etc. These all share the same Apple ID.  In the past I used an email address from BT which I no longer have access to and have forgotten the password to. We now have an active Apple ID which I have used for this iPad. I have tried to reset this iPad but it will not allow me to or to delete and update the iCloud backup as it asks for the old BT internet Apple ID password, even though the iPad is logged in with the new active one. Please advise how I can delete the old account from the iPad.

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreated the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • HT5621 I just want to delete my primary email address as it no longer exists but it says I'm already using my new address so how come I can't find it. I just want my new main address to be the only one registered to this account

    This is going around in circles I want to delete my existing (closed) address and replace it with my now only functioning address but it won't let me saying it is in use. Well not by me on this account its not

    In short, you have a problem we can't solve.
    I suggest you contact Apple support and make an appointment to get help.  Expect to pay for it.
