I have an apple id accont with multiple devices including my son's iPod touch. I would like to remove his iPod touch and create a new apple id account for him so it's completely seperate from mine. I would also like to do this without deleting everything on his iPod (game info etc.). I can't find how to do this. Any suggestions?
No need to remove the device from your Apple ID, actually no way to do this.
Simply sign out of your Apple ID on his device and sign in with his new Apple ID.
Just be aware that content acquired under an Apple ID is permanently tied to that Apple ID. Therefore, to install updates for Apps going forward, he may still require the password for your Apple ID.
Changing Apple ID's has no affect on the content on the device.
Hi
No need to remove the device from your Apple ID,
how can i do that ?
As already stated, you cannot remove the device from the Apple ID.
You can only sign out of the Apple ID on the device.
Settings > Store > Sign Out.
You actually CAN disassociate a device from your account thru iTunes:
Hi, I bought an iPad for one of my friends and I entered my apple ID on his device. I forgot to signout or erase my info from his device before giving it to him. Is there anyway for me to sign that device out remotely?!!
If "Find My iPhone" is enabled, you can remotely wipe the device but this "friend" would also be extremely made with you.
If they are a "friend", simply ask them to sign out of your Apple ID on their device.
From the main screen of "Find my device" in icloud.com, select the device. At the bottom of the screen, there is a link that says "Remove this device from Find my Device".
I did that but I got a message saying that iphone will reappear when it connects to the internet??
I went to manage devices in itunes account info setting and the iphone wasn't there.
It had my apple id, so it must have been associated with my account...
Might be it got deleted from my apple ID when I erased the device?
anyway, I sold it and don't ever want to see it in find my devices....how?
You can actually remove it.
Sign in to iCloud then go Find iPhone then choose All Devices. When you find it make sure you erase it and then select Remove from account and its done!
