How do I remove a device from my App store account

I just purchased a new iPad Air from Apple and am trading in an older iPad. I have followed the instructions to remove it from "Find My", however, the old iPad is still listed under "Manage Devices" in my account in the App Store and in Apple Music. The "remove" button is there, but grey and doesn't work. It is not in the list of My Devices on iCloud . How do I remove it from the App Store and Music?

iPad Air 5 Wi-Fi

Hello DianeKEb,


We believe we have a resource that can help you ensure you're signed out of your Apple ID as expected on your old device. Get started with the guidance listed in the following support article: Check your Apple ID device list to see where you're signed in - Apple Support


This provides options to sign out from multiple devices. If you can't manage from one device we recommend trying another. Also, ensure you review the section labeled "Permanently remove a device from your account page".


Lastly, review the following article to ensure no steps were missed: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support


Best regards.
