I sold my iPad 2 a while back and even though I disconnected it from my iCloud and restored it, it still shows up in the maps app but nowhere else.
No iPad listed under Find my Device on iCloud
The iPad is displayed in Maps
Is there any way to remove a device from this list in Maps?
The iPad was also un-registered from my Apple ID and it remained in Maps.
iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2012), OS X Mavericks (10.9)
Ditto...same question here.
My old iPad remains in the list after having removed it when upgrading to iPad air
Any resolution?

Essentially, you go to appleid.apple.com, hit "Manage Your Apple ID," sign in, go to passwords and security, then on the right it says "trusted devices". There's a link there called "manage". That allows you to remove an old device.
It took me a while to find this. I hope it helps.
Hi Bennie,
This did not worked more me. I enabled 2 step verification, and now in my trusted device there is only one phone. But it Maps OSX, I can still see 3 devices.
Had this same issue as I sold my iPad. The problem is in iCloud on your Mac.
Sign out of iCloud on your Mac. Reboot. Sign back in to iCloud. You may want to wait a few minutes before signing back in. I had to do this twice. Waited about an hour the second time and I've had no problems since.

This worked for me the first try, Thanks! 🙂
I have absolutely NO link in my passwords and security for "trusted devices".
Where do you see that?
You have to enable 2 step verification for that. Anyways that still wont work (atleast it didnt for me)
B Bond, Nope didnt worked with me.
Tried twice. I have literally checked all sort of links and information on how to remove this. Its a mystery for me.
You're signing out of iCloud on your Mac (System Preferences>iCloud), correct? (As opposed to online at icloud.com) This is where the problem is. Maps is getting it's information from the iCloud account you have on your Mac.
Maybe try signing out and running Onyx to clear some cache files? Reboot, then sign in again on your Mac.
Also, check supportprofile.apple.com and make sure your iPad isn't listed there.
Finally, can you verify that when you sold (or otherwise got rid of) your iPad, you signed out of "Find my iPad" BEFORE resetting to factory defaults (assuming iOS 7)? If not, your device may still be attached to your account as part of Apple's new security features of iOS 7.
Thanks for replying B Bond.
1. Yes Im signing out the iCloud present in System Preferences.
2. Yup my previous iPhone is not listed in the Supportprofile. I have even removed it from the iTunes mange devices. iTune > View > Apple ID > Managed devices.
I haven't tried Onyx. Going to try now and will get back again.
Thanks for helping.
Nope. Did that.
Signed out of iCloud (from mac System Preferences)
Ran OnyX
Rebooted
Signed back in to iCloud.
Launched Maps. It still has it.
To be removed iPhone from the Maps.
iCloud.com
Support Profile
By the way I still have the access to the iPhone "Dheeraj 's Phone" which I wanted to be removed. The phone has been erased with all the contents and kept switch off.
Not sure, what is tying Maps in OS X with that phone.

Since you still have access to "Dheeraj's Phone," try turning it on again and signing in with iCloud. Basically, pretend like you will be continuing to use the phone. Login to icloud.com and see if you can see the phone using "Find my iPhone."
Then go through all the steps again that you would do if you wanted to remove the phone from your account. i.e. SIgn out of Find my iPhone, remove from your iCloud.com account, remove from your iTunes account, remove from your Apple Support account, reset all settings to new.
Ok I found the trick if some people are still in trouble with this.
Apple is apparently holding a database linking devices with accounts.
Even if you sign out from iCloud on your old device, it'll still be bound to your account (mysteriously) until it's associated with another one.
So I just created a dumb account, linked my device I have to send back (and never see again) on iCloud, and tadaa it disappared immediately from the Share list.
Any idea how to accomplish that if you no longer have the old iPhone? Mine was exchanged under warranty and I did sign out of iCloud, erased all content and settings and have already sent back the defective iPhone.
Remove device from Maps?
