Unable to remove a device form Apple ID

I would like to delete the Apple Watch Series 7 from my account, but I don't know how. The device is no longer with me, and I just want to remove it completely. On the appleid.apple.com website, I checked 'Devices' menu, however, Series 7 is not listed. By the way, I still see my old device in the MacOS and iPhone settings. When I try to delete it, I receive an error message.

Hello whanklee,


To remove your Apple Watch from your account, you'll need to go to the iCloud website and locate it under Find My. This process can be done from your computer or an iOS device. Here's how to remove it:


Click this link: iCloud


1. In Find Devices on iCloud.com, select the device in the All Devices list on the left.

If you’ve already selected a device, you can click All Devices to return to the list and select a new device.

2. Erase the device.

Because the device isn’t lost, don’t enter a phone number or message.

If the device is offline, the remote erase begins the next time it’s online. You receive an email when the device is erased.

3. When the device is erased, click Remove This Device.

All your content is erased, and someone else can now activate the device.

Take care.
