I have two iTunes Store accounts. How can I merge them?

The ability to merge accounts has been raised a number of times, and I would have thought that it would be something that Apple has looked at (or maybe still is) - if/when it will be possible I don't know.
It's also not possible to delete an account, all you can do is remove any personal info from it and stop using it. But any content that you bought/downloaded with it will remain tied to it, so only that account will be able to authorise that content on a new computer, redownload it and download updates to its app (so will need to remember the id and password)

  • I have two apple Id accounts how do I merge them into one account

    I have two apple Id accounts how do I merge them into one account

    you can't merge Apple ID's
    From the FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622
    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.

  • I brought my itunes library onto a mac from a windows machine and now i have two separate libraries.  How can I merge them?

    I moved to Mac from a Windows machine where I had downloaded all of my CDs into iTunes.  When I got my Mac it only put my purchased items into my library.  So I merged my windows library and it created a whole new user account with that on it.  I now have two libraries and can only sync music with one account or I lose all of my imported CDs.  Help!  How do I merge them. 

    The easiest way is to get both computers on your home network and copy the files over the network. It's easier than you think
    Check this earlier thread:
    [How do I move my itunes library to new computer|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7937172&#7937172]
    That thread mentions Target Disk Mode, which won't help moving from a PC to a Mac. But you can use file sharing to copy the files.
    As the articles all say: don't forget to de-authorize your PC before you get rid of it.

    you can't.
    ... so that I can use it on multiple devices?
    a single iTunes can be authorized for up to five iTunes store accounts (Apple IDs). a library thusly set up will sync content purchased with any of the five Apple IDs to any device.

  • I synced a movie from my laptop 2 my iPad but lost some music video I purchased from iTunes store. How can I get them back ? Thxs

    I synced a movie from my laptop 2 my iPad but lost some music video I purchased from iTunes store. How can I get them back ? Thxs

    Sorry, but movies cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

    Perhaps the copyright holders chose to remove them. What album were you after?

  • I have two iCloud IDs.  How do I merge them?

    I have two iCloud IDs.  How do I merge them?

    Unfortunately, you cannot merge iCloud accounts.
    You might instead export the data from your contacts and calendars etc from one account to the other.
    Of note, iCloud and iTunes accounts are different accounts whilst you can export data as mentioned previously, from one iCloud to another, you can not transfer purchases made in one iTunes account to another.

  • HT1918 I have 2 itunes ids. How can I merge the 2 email addresses. The site will not let me merge 2 existing email accounts

    I have 2 apple itunes ids. How can I merge the accounts into 1 user account? I have tried using both email accounts on a single itunes account but the site will not let me use 2 existing email accounts.
    Thanks

    You can't merge Apple IDs.
    And you also can't change the name of an iTS Apple ID to another one that ends in a me.com.

  • I have two macs. I have two itunes libraries. How can I sync my iphone with both

    Itunes is driving me insane every single day now.
    I have two macs so I obviously have two itunes libraries. I have purchased things on both my desktop and my laptop UNDER THE SAME ACCOUNT.
    How Can I add/sync media from both without having to erase EVERYTHING. So ridiculous.
    Thanks

    To share the iTunes content between your computers, just enable Home Sharing from iTunes > File > Home Sharing.
    You'll still have to sync the iPhone with just one iTunes library because of the copyright restrictions that iTunes must follow.
    More syncing info and options here -> Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers

  • I have two apple id's how can i convert them two one

    I have 2 apple id. How can i convert to one?

    Currently there is no path for that.
    Pick the Apple ID or iTunes account that you want to use and stick to it for all purchases as you cannot consolidate purchases from multiple accounts.

  • After having to replace my hard drive most photos were lost, but luckily were on an external drive. Have copied the iphoto library to computer, but now there are two seperate libraries.  How can I merge them?

    How can I merge two Iphoto Libraries?

    If you have Aperture 3.3 or later and iPhoto 9.3 or later you can merge libraries with Aperture.
    Otherwise the only way to merge Libraries is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager

  • I think i may have two iCloud accounts how can i merge them?

    I think i may have two iCloud accounts as i changed my apple id, I don't seem to be able to access the other.  How can i see my documents in the cloud

    Hello HVD64
    I'm afraid there is no way too merge two icloud accounts together per se. However if you;
    1. Go to SETTINGS on your iPhone or iPad.
    2. Go to iCLOUD.
    3. Scroll to the very bottom, press DELETE ACCOUNT. Before you panic, this is not going to Delete your iCloud account. It is simply going to delete the bridge that connects your device to the iCloud.
    4. Choose to KEEP ITEMS ON YOUR DEVICE if asked.
    Then sign into your 2nd account, and this will merge both accounts onto one device. There is not much else you can do I'm afraid!
    Kind regards

    No, you chose to create a new account.  You could have just as easily used the existing iTunes account.
    It is not possible to merge iTunes accounts.
