    Hi ivar175,

     

    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.

     

    I recommend signing out of iCloud on your iPhone using these steps:

    • If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:

      1. Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.

      2. Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.

    If you are prompted for the password for your old Apple ID (iCloud account), first try your current password. If that password is not accepted, see the additional tips in this article:
