Apple ID ownership Release

If your Apple ID ends with (@mcqstudent.org OR @mcquaid.org), read this document, otherwise disregard it.

Technology Office is excited to announce that we’re implementing Managed Apple IDs.

Managed Apple IDs

Your current Apple ID is considered personal and Apple needs you to release the ownership of the account for McQuaid to enroll you in the program.

Advantages of this program:

  • class collaboration
  • in house password resets
  • GoldPass integration.

 

Personal Apple ID Release

Follow the screen shots to release ownership of a personal Apple ID that is associated with McQuaid Jesuit (@mcqstudent.org OR @mcquaid.org)

4- If you have set up “Two-Factor Authentication”, you will receive a numerical code on your trusted device that is signed in with your Apple ID, if you don’t have a trusted device, maybe because you had it as McQuaid Jesuit iPad that you already returned to McQuaid, no problem! Please see step 5.

 

 

5- You may authenticate using different methods, simply by clicking “Didn’t get a verification code” and you will see other methods are available for you.

8- Create an iCloud email address combining your First Initial, Last name, mcq and graduation year, without spaces, please see the example below:

First name “Ibrahim”

Last name “Alibadi”

Graduation year “2024”

My email address will be “ialibadimcq2024@icloud.com” , then click “Continue.”

9- At this point you have successfully created a new personal Apple ID, click “OK”
