How am I goin to delete my old apple Id account? I created new account and I wanted to delete my old account and use the new one. Every time I tried to updates all,the applications the old account is popping up and I can't access it.

As has already been stated, you cannot delete an AppleID.

If you want to stop using an account remove and personal details from it (e.g. payment details), cancel any subscriptions and pre-orders on it, and delete all of its downloads.

If you want it disabled just type in the wrong password a number of times.

Popups on Safari are very unlikely to be related to your id. Have you tried clearing Safari's cache via Settings > Safari, closing Safari via the phone's taskbar, and doing a soft-reset/reboot ?

How one earth would a user know to do this? Where are the instructions that say to do this?

Right here:

Change your Apple ID - Apple Support

This will sound hard but sadly tou are going to format your mac that's the only way

Why can't you log out? Go to Settings/<your name>/, scroll down to the bottom and tap Sign Out.

You should change the email address associated with your Apple ID as described in this link-->Change your Apple ID - Apple Support

What’s STUPID is creating a new Apple ID when all you have to do is change the email address of your Apple ID account. Change your Apple ID - Apple Support

For what? I bought a used Macbook Pro, and while I have an administrator account on the machine and my own Apple ID, I cannot upgrade the apps without the previous owner's Apple password. This is uncomfortable for both me and the previous owner.

I have tried deleting the apps to reinstall them, but for some reason, it will not allow me to do that, either. Mostly, these are the applications that come with MacOS, such as Pages.

And again, Apple’s software is tied to the AppleID. It is not transferable so you would need to buy those yourself with your AppleID. The previous owner should have wiped the device clean of everything other than OS X itself.

When someone sells or gives away a hardware product, they should remove all trace of their own previous ID. Software licenses are not transferable. The previous owner had no legal rights to leave that there for your use.

If you have a connection with the old owner of the computer then you can have them log into their Apple ID and remove the laptop from their account then you can do a full wipe of the computer to factory settings and then like new

No tie to him. But first he must remove the computer from his Apple ID list online then wipe he computer. Apple Store can help you on the wipe after he disassociates from the computer

so even if i delete the email account i create my apple i.d account with the apple i.d account wont go away ? so are you telling me if i delete my email account and its put back in service someone else might have access to my old apple id account ? its a long shot but its possible !

No. When you create an AppleID, the email address you use is nothing more than the identifier for that AppleID. The email address can be defunct afterwards, but it doesn’t matter (other than the fact that unless you entered a rescue email, Apple cannot send you info to reset your password any longer).

And if someone else started using the exact same email as you had used, they’d simply get a message that this email was already an AppleID and they need to use a different email now if they try to create an AppleID. They cannot use that email address as your AppleID since they don’t know your password, your security questions, have no access to any of your trusted devices and so forth.

You can change the primary email (and rescue email) associated with your AppleID any time you wish. By simply changing the primary email (and NOT creating a wholly new AppleID), your account tracks with that change, so nothing is lost or altered.

they need to delete that device from their Apple ID through the 'find my phone' and should have deleted it's contents and have it reset to factory settings. Then you can start fresh. Here are the steps for the previous owner:

1)sign in to www.icloud.com using your Apple ID and password, then click 'find my phone'

2)turn off 'find my phone' using icloud

- click ALL DEVICES

- click the device you gave away

- click REMOVE FROM ACCOUNT

have them try this and hopefully it will work for you ... otherwise you will be forever connected to their Apple ID
