How to merge iTunes accounts

I created an itunes account when i purchased my first gen iPod Touch that is linked to an old email address i do not use anymore. I now have a @me e-mail address and use this as my main Apple ID and want to move all my stuff from my old iTunes account to my new Apple ID with the @me address. Is this possible?

I'm sorry, but this isn't possible right now. Maybe we'll have more luck when Apple opens up iCloud ...
See:  I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to consolidate them into a single Apple ID?

    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • Merging iTunes accounts on the same computer...

    I split my computer into two accounts, one for work, one personal. The idea being: I keep all of my work stuff on one account, personal stuff on personal account. BAM! keep the company computer.
    But now, I have two separate Itunes accounts. And i've been getting most of my music during work. ****.
    How can i bring everything over to my "personal" Itunes account? Is there a way to merge these two accounts? They're on the same computer...

    on the work account, move the iTunes music (or media) folder from <MacintoshHD>/users/<workname>/music to <MacintoshHD>/users/shared.
    log into the home account, launch iTunes, select the add to library command from the file menu, and navigate to the iTunes music folder in the shared folder. or drop the iTunes music folder from shared into the automatically add to iTunes folder inside the iTunes folder.

  • Need help with merging itunes accounts.

    Hello.  I was wondering if any of you mac experts can help me.  My husband and I recently purchased a new mac and are having trouble figuring out how to merge our information into our computer's itunes.  I set up the computer under my apple ID/email.  However we both have separate apple id's linked with the same bank account information.  The problem is, itunes on our computer isn't recognizing any of the purchases through my husband's apple id, even though they were paid for through the same account.  I haven't been able to figure out whether or not I can add his apple id/email to itunes and merge the two, since a substantial amount of music/apps/etc were purchased under his ID.  Surely it's possible to have more than on apple id on one family's computer?  Anyone know?  Hopefully I worded this clearly enough.  Thanks!

    Open the NetInfo Manager in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder, click the padlock, type in your password, and then locate that account in the list of users. Delete that account and only that account; don't make any other changes. The account's home folder will remain on the drive.

  • How to merge 2 accounts

    I have an apple id under my gmail.com address. I just started using iCloud for my email. I would to update my email address on my original ID from [email protected] to [email protected] Since when you create a new iCloud account it makes a completely new apple ID for you it won't let you do that. I would like to either merge the accounts or somehow make one account under the @me.com address.
    I was maybe thinking I could delete the @me account then some how change the @gmail acount to a @me account.
    Btw Both accounts have the exact same address execpt the domain. example: [email protected] and [email protected]

    iTunes/AppStore/iBook - purchased items DRM system stores the Apple-ID in its items, so all purchases are hardcoded to the Apple-ID once used to buy stuff.
    I think THAT is the true problem.
    I sit in the same boat. Used msn.com Apple-ID for purchases and now have a Me.com,too. Want only One but also do not want to lose my apps and songs worth over 200 Euros.

  • HT1373 Merging itunes accounts

    I had a joint itunes account with my spouse, however we divorced.  Many of the songs were added to my ipod touch and nano.  I subsequently purchased an ipad and registered that device with a different itunes account. I have many songs on the ipods that I'd like to place on my new itunes account & ipad.  My question is how do I merge the two accounts?

    iTunes Store accounts can't be merged. If desired, click here and request assistance.

  • How to merge itunes gift card credits

    I have 2 itunes accounts that both have credits from gift cards. I would like to merge the 2 accounts and the respective balances. Can that be done and how do i do that?
    Thank you

    That is asked often, but people here report that the iTunes Store will not do so. I can't speak for Apple, but I assume they do not want to have to police requests like "Transfer all leannesavone's credits into my account." Besides, any content bought with an iTunes account has the account permanently embedded in it, without any evident way to change it.
    So, just buy enough songs to clean out the account you no longer want, and then stop using it.

  • Merge iTunes account and mobile me

    There should be a way to merge an iTunes account with an iCloud account.
    I've had an iTunes account since it went online, and then 2 years ago bought a MobileMe acct.
    Now with iCloud I have to ow use my iCloud acct for purchases.
    How can I import my iTunes purchases into my iCloud account?  Or am I now juggling two iTunes accounts?

    You can not merge the two.  I cloud has nothing to do with I tunes purchases.  I cloud is for mail, contacts, ect.  I tunes is for apps and music.  I have 2 apple ids.  one for i tunes and one for i cloud.  the problem will be whe ni tunes match goes live.  that will be fun.

  • How to share iTunes account?

    Hi, i'm sure i'm not the only one thats asked this question so hopefully theres an answer out there somewhere already?
    I'm a father of 5 (yes thats 5 children!) and we are an 'Apple Family'. Between us we have 4 Macbook Pros, 1 iPad, 3 iPad Minis and 3 iPhones. At the moment 2 Macbook Pros, 1 iPad, 3 iPad minis and 2 of the iPhones are using a shared iTunes account, now my son has just got a new Macbook Pro i've got to the point where it won't let me add anymore hardware to this account...
    I first saw the details about this 'Family Sharing' possibility with the IOS 8 and Yosemite and thought this sounded exactly what I was after, however this only supports 5 users and I have 7!
    Is there anyway I can set up a total of 11 Apple products on the same iTunes account, and if not how best would I set this up? Can I have 2 iTunes accounts with different usernames but the same credit card details? is this the best way? If I did it this way I would have to purchase things twice?
    Any comments and suggestions would be appreciated..
    thanks in advance
    Matthew

    hold the shift key down (on pc) or options key  (alt on mac) when opening itunes then you can find library
    I use a library under a shared folder on my pc
    do that for both user accounts and it will always open that library

  • How to change itunes account from one account holder to another

    I previously set up different family members' accounts under my own itunes account. Now I'd like them to have their own accounts with their own payment information. How can I change each user's existing account information to get them off my account and onto their own?

    on the old account, move the iTunes folder to HD/users/shared. on the other account, moved it from shared to the music folder, overwriting the iTunes folder in place there.
    fire up iTunes while pressing option and click on +choose library+. navigate to the iTunes library file (in the iTunes folder you just moved).

  • How to "split" iTunes accounts?

    I have recently moved out of my parent's house for college. Previously, I shared an iTunes account with them (and I've invested much of my own money into this account). Now I want to "split" accounts, as it is currently linked to my mother's credit card. I highly doubt there is a way to legally do this, but I'm hoping there is. So, can I somehow keep all of the files from our iTunes account and move them to a new one (I've tried to download the content to my computer and switch accounts to my new one but then I must "authorize" with the old account)?

    Is it just music or do you have videos, ringtones or apps for iOS?
    DRM protected music could upgraded via 'iTunes plus' to files with no DRM…
    iTunes Store: iTunes Plus Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) 
    There was the option to upgrade at a lower cost at one point in time (sorry it was years ago - I'm insure if this program is still active). This may be more accurate with the current state…
    http://www.tuaw.com/2012/12/04/is-itunes-plus-gone-itunes-11-offers-drm-free-aud io-re-download/
    Create a Smart playlist where Kind contains "protected". Use that to judge how much you have to upgrade.
    The other option (also legal FYI) is to burn Audio CD's of the music & then re-rip it to your Mac. You must use the 'audio CD option' and when re-importing the tags can easily fail to look up in CDDB because the CD is not identical to a purchased one. I would burn as A full albums to give you a hope of tagging the files correctly. This is a painful solution, but it can allow you to play the music without the authentication issues. it also does not hurt to have backups of purchases on other disks - Apple cannot keep all downloads in the store (the rights holders remove them) so iTunes Cloud may not have files you purchased sometime ago.
