Set an up my watch for the first time. My daughters email comes up to continue the set up instead of my own email on my phone. There is no account with my daughter that is logged in.

My daughter’s email comes up when in the setup process, I can’t change it. She uses my Mac book, is that why?

Hello Mchilet,


If it's still stuck on that Apple ID, that would mean she needs to remove the device from her account before it can be setup on yours. She can use these steps to remove it from her account:


1. On a computer, go to Find My iPhone on iCloud.com and sign in with your Apple ID. 
2. Select All Devices, then click your Apple Watch.
3. Click Erase Apple Watch. Select Next until the device is erased.
4. Click the X button  next to your Apple Watch. 

What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Apple Watch, or buy one from someone else


Cheers!
