HT204053 I have two Apple ID's, can I merge all purchases into one account?

I have two Apple ID's and am finding that Apple TV will only recognise one. Can I merge previously purchased content into a single Apple ID to make it accessible to Apple TV from multiple devices?

The Apple TV will recognise multiple libraries using different iTunes accounts providing they are all using the same homesharing details.

  • If I have two iTunes accounts can I combine all purchases into one account ?

    I have two active iTunes accounts but I would like to combine my purchases into one is that possible.".?

    If you mean iTunes Store accounts, no.
    If you mean iTunes libraries, import the files into the desired library.

  • HT204053 I have two Apple ids, how can I get all music I have purchased in one library?

    I have used two Apple IDs to purchase music. I want to consolidate the music to one library. How can I do this?

    Wooookay ..... I need to slow down some here.
    OK. Thanks for this. Yes I was confusing two things.
    Forget the Store.
    In my iTunes Library there are some songs I purchased (with ID2) along with those from ID1. There are a few songs with a "!" in the first column on the left of my songs listing. When I click on those songs I get a message which says "can't play this song as itunes cannot locate the file, then it gives me the option to locate it. Once I take that option I am in finder but cannot find the song. it is not in the location other "playable songs" are.
    somewhere in frogging around i did see a location that looked something like //file/xxxxx/xxxx/user/etc. but I cannot find this location. somehow a few songs from a specific download have been sent to this eroneous location which itunes cannot find. I want to get them moved to where itunes can find and play them.
    I can later deal with ordering music with two different IDs.
    Thanks for helping

  • Have two apple IDs.  Can I merge them somehow?

    I have two apple IDs.  One from before icloud - ends in sbcglobal.net.  When icloud became available, somehow I created a new apple ID ending in me.com.  Is there some way that I can merge them so that I have only one apple ID to manage?  I have two desktop Macs, an iPad, and an iPhone 5.

    No, Apple does not allow to merge AppleIDs. You can just stop using one of them.

  • HT204053 i have two apple id's how do i convert them to one id

    i have two apple id's and how do i convert one into another and get rid of the other?

    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge 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.

  • HT204053 I have 2 apple ids and so now my iphone is on one account and my ipad is on the second account.  I was wondering how I can change my ipad to match my iphone so I can backup to iclouds together

    I have an iphone and recently got an ipad2.  I have two apple ids, which I didn't know (or I created a new account when setting up).  So my question is this:  When setting up my ipad2 it is under one appleid and my iphone is under my other appleid.  Is there a way I can change one to match the other?  I would like to be able to share photos between the two and I can't unless they share the same icloud account, right?
    Any help is greatly appreciated

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

  • HT204053 I have two Apple IDs and want to merge them so I use the same Apple ID for iCloud/IO6 and iTunes

    I have 2 Apple IDs and I want to merge them so I only use one. Can I change my Apple ID for iTunes to my iCloud/email ID? 

    You can't merge them but you can change the ID you use for iTunes store and app purchases.  To do this, go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, tap the ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in using the other ID.

  • HT204053 I have two Apple ID's and want to get rid of one of them. How can i delete the extra one ?

    How can I delete an extra Apple ID ?
    I just want to have one only for my Iphone and for my Mac.
    Thank you for any advice.

    I went to the Apple support site last nite for a live chat.
    The tech there suggested 2 separate actions;
    Here they are, verbatum;
    # 1
    Go to,
    Store-ID-sign out
    #2
    Change the password to a random string of numbers and letters and set up the other account on both services.
    So...
    That's it. Neither suggestion worked for me so I'm going up to the apple store in Century City and see if one of the geniuses can straighten me out.

  • I have two Apple ID, how can I delete one and use the email address associates to the main one?

    I have two Apple ID, how can I delete one and use the email address associates to the main one?

    If you abandon one of the Apple IDs you will also basically be abandoning any content that you have acquired with that Apple ID. Content can only be updated and re-downloaded with the Apple ID that was used to buy it. Apple will not combine the content of Apple IDs and Apple will not transfer the content from one Apple ID to another Apple ID.
