How can I associate 2 appleids with one account or use a different Appleid for imessage as described in another post?
I have rejoined the iPhone community, not with one iPhone but with two. My wife agreed to move from the unenlightened!
I have set up both under my apple account and want to keep it that way. But I do not want iMessages going to both phones. I would like separate message queues but share all apps and other purches from the store.
I have created a separate AppleID for her but under Settings>Message>Receive At (it currently says 2 addresses) > ... will not allow me to change the current eMail address and when I add hers (her appleid) it errors out. The only thing I can do in the Apple ID field is to manage my account and not change it to hers.
How can I have 2 iPhones (and my iPad) on the same account but have separate identies?
Thanks,
LpGrumpy

1. Yes. Restart with the Option key held down as needed.
2. No, it won't be a problem.

How can I cancel an order, that was created using Guest Checkout? Or how can I associate in with my account?

Wanted to buy ipod nano, but got a problems with payment information. And now can't cancel an order.

Where did you try and order it? From Apple's website? Perhaps this page can help.

I have one account, but use it as two for years. One is home, one is work. Recently we upgraded to Windows 7 at work and a new email system. Now I can't download music at work; work tech support can't help but said to use my work email address. Failure

Could it be a new work firewall associated with the upgrades? How can I resolve this?

HT2534 how can I logon to the app's store using a different itunes account

how can I logon to the app's store using a different itunes account?

You can log out of the currently logged in account on your iPhone by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores and logging out, and you then log in with a different account. But any content downloaded via the currently logged in account will remain tied to that account, and if you use iTunes match, automatic downloads or re-download past purchases for an account then you risk tying the iPhone to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

HT2736 how can i transfer money to one account to another?

There are tricks to do this, but they violate the iTS T&C. So basically, you can't.

How can i move music from one account to another

I have 4 different accounts in Itunes and i wish to move all the music into one account
help please !!!!

You can't transfer content from one account to another account, nor can you merge accounts - content will remain tied to the account that downloaded it

How can i transfer apps from one account to another.?

now i had bought apps with my old account. but when i sync them into my phone i cant update them using my account, i need the old itunes i had. How can i transfer all bought apps onto my new account?

You can't.
All 3rd party apps - all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to purchase/download the apps. DRM cannot be transferred from one account to another.
Why did you get a new iTunes account? Changing your email address alone does not require doing so.

I used the migrator utility to transfer music and picture from my old PC and now I have 2 accounts on my new Mac, how can I get back to one account and still have the music and photos transfered ?

I used the migrator utility to transfer itunes and photos from my old PC to my new Mac and ended up with 2 accounts on my new computer. How do I transfer the music and photos and only have the 1 account on the new Mac ?

That's not easy. The Windows migration tool makes a new user account, and you can't prevent it.
You may be able to transfer what you want manually, but it's not quick or easy. See Transferring files from one User Account to another.

How can i transfer credits from one account to another that I own ?

Due to some personal issues I created multiple apple id accounts. I accidently added itunes credit to the account not associated with an app that I want to make a purchase on. Is there anyway I can transfer those funds to the proper account ?

Apple has never permitted any form of merging of Apple ID related accounts. All apps, and purchases in one account are permanently tied to that account and cannot be transfered to another.
You can try communicating with the store support staff and see if they can do something to help: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/ituens/contact.html

How can I move applications from one account to a other ?

Hi
I have a old account which I used on my iPad 1. Now I moved to the cloud and got a @me.com apple ID. This new account I use for my new iPad 3 and now I would like to move some Apps from the old account to the new. How can I do this ?
Thx for help !

At this time you can't transfer apps or merge accounts. It has been rumoured that apple is looking at this as it's a bit of a pain. You have to use your old account with the iTunes store to access apps and then your .me account for iCloud and it's functionality but it works fine.
