If my partner & I both have an iTunes account, can we home share both or somehow combine the two accounts?

As of right now there is no way to combine Apple accounts.
As for "sharing", you can go into the iTunes settings for each and turn on Home Sharing, this will make your music libraries available to each other, provided you are both using different computers.

TS2755 I can text one friend but not another. They both have iPhones. Why can't I text both?

I can't text my other friend and Idk why. We had lost our Internet for a couple days and I could text her before then. But afterwards when I try to text her it just shows the message under her name but doesn't say delivered and I've asked her if she's gotten my messages but she says she hasn't gotten them. I can text my OTHER FRIEND though. Please Help!

if you said you are the one who lost internet connection - and you are trying to send via the iPad.....this is exactly the reason why you cannot send messages from the iPad - it needs an internet connection for iMessage to work.
as for the iPhone - that can use the cellular data connection if no Wi-Fi is available.

HT203167 I have another email account that has a bunch of music on it. However, I'm uncertain how to combine the two accounts? can anyone help?

I had another account that years ago I downloaded a bunch of music. I was wondering if there's any way I'm able to get the music from then into my library now. I've spent the money, can I have the product please?
Can anyone help?
Thank you

The music you purchased belongs to you forever. Simply authorize the computer using the same Apple ID that you used to purchase it.

HT4528 I have two iTunes account. Is there a way of merging the two accounts. The original account was created several years ago prior to purchase of an iphone. How and where do I go to check my credit card information?

I created an iTunes ago several years ago under this email: At this time I did not own an Apple product. All songs purchased and downloaded were in my lap top.
When I purchased my first iPhone...another iTunes account was created under the iPhone ID:
There is NO ONE that can help or assist me. IF instructed properly and correctly...I can maneuver thru my systems. I would like to combine the two accounts. Is this possible? There is NO logical reason to have 2 accounts out there...
I am upgrading to the iPhone 5s on the 20th of this month...Can someone please help me move all information?
Also, I need to know how to check/review the credit card information in my iTunes account in my current iPhone 5. Not able to make purchases....AND there is cash in my account.
Not difficult questions...just need someone to take the time to help me.
Thank you.

Me and my partner have just brought a new MacBook. We both have individual iTunes and iCloud accounts, is there any way we can access both accounts on one computer?

Set up 2 accounts one for each of you.

My wife and i both have an itunes library installed on to our separate pc's, we are now de-commissioning the pc's and are moving over to a single mac mini, can we install both libraries on to the mac mini and run them as separate libraries?

Generally YES.
It's possible to hold separate iTunes library's on a single machine.
Generate two new folders inside the Music folder of the Mini and name them differently; e.g. man and woman.
Copy your whole library into "man" and your wifes into "woman"
Go to sharing in the system settings of the Mini and share the Music folder in your network.
After copying the whole library's to the Mini you may point iTunes to the new location at startup by holding the option key (alt) at the keyboard.
iTunes will then ask you where the library is located.
Point it to the matching library on the Mini.
That's all.

PS ... If you both use only the Mini you have to setup a user account for each and just copy the whole library to the Music folder in particular.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this test is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The "Guest User" login created by "Find My Mac" is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.

I have two apple id accounts with separate music lists, how do I combine the music lists on my iphone?

I have two apple id accounts with 2 different email addresses and passcodes...how do I combine both lists of music on the two accounts into one list on my iphone, ipad and desktop?

Stop using one. Everything you've previously purchased from it has that Apple ID stored inside the file, which can't be changed.

I have 2 iCloud accounts. Can I delete one account so I can make use of additional space I purchased for the secondary account? Also iPhoto seems to only connect to the primary account? How do I send files to the secondary account?

Both accounts are completely independent from each other. In order to use the space that you have purchased for your secondary account, you must change it to become your primary account. Yes, as you said, services like photo stream only work with the primary account. Unfortunately, there is no comfortable way to just transfer data from one account to another one, but you can do it via a third party application e.g. via Dropbox: e.g. for photos: photos stored with your current primary account > manual transfer to dropbox > after you made your secondary account to the primary account, transfer the photos back to your new primary account etc.

HT5621 Hi, we have three iPhones and iPods which are currently linked to one apple ID. I have now set up an apple id for each phone/iPod. How do I go about re-directing the two accounts to the relevant one that has now been set up please?

I could do with a step by step guide to follow as am worried about loosing aps, music, photo's etc which are on the individual phones.
Thanks

On each of the phones you're gonna use a new Apple ID for iCloud: turn off Contacts, Calendars, etc. for iCloud. You'll be prompted to keep the data or delete it from the phone, then turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account...Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then, setup iCloud using the new Apple ID, turn on iMessage & Facetime.
This will have no affect on the ID you share for iTunes content, & you can continue to do so.

I have 2 iPhones - one for personal use and one for work. They are currently connected with the same Apple ID. I would like to separate the two accounts. Does anybody know how to do this?

Just create a new AppleID for your work.
As Allan suggested, items purchased on one iTunes account cannot be moved to the other account.
However, you can put items purchased on on account onto the other iPhone.

You can't combine accounts but help here Apple ID FAQ's for resetting your Apple ID password.
