Can i merge my two iTunes accounts

I have two itunes accounts, one on a pc and one on my mac, can anyone help me merge the two accounts without losing any of my content.

You're welcome. Maybe in the future this policy will change but at the moment you have to use both for updates.
You can of course give them a feedback

    How do I merge two iTunes accounts?

    You can only stay logged in with one at a time.
    Apps bought on one account will always be associated with that account and will require logging into that account to update.

  • HT1918 How can i merge my two itunes accounts?

    apparently I have two iTunes accounts.  How can I merge them and get rid of one.

    It's not currently possible to merge accounts, content will remain tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded it.

  • Can I merge my two iTunes accounts before upgrading to iCloud?

    I've had an iTunes account since 2003, and a mobileme account since 2005.  When I recently upgraded my iPhone to iOS 5, it forced my iTunes account login to my mobileme email.  Now I sign in and purchase tunes and apps on my iPhone using the new me.com account.  I expect that the migration to iCloud will force me to use the me.com account.  This will likely mean that my regular old iTunes account, which has thousands of purchased tunes and apps, won't function on iCloud.  Is there a way to merge these accounts together?

    Hello Elarsson
    According to Apple, there is no way to merge accounts either before or after migrating to iCloud. What many have ended doing (me included) is to use one account for iTunes and one for iCloud.
    I know that it would be better to just have a single account for everything, but it seems like it is just not possible.

  • TS3988 how can i merge my two icloud accounts information

    How can I merge my two iCloud accounts information

    Apple doesn't provide a direct merge operation but you can connect in one account, disconnect but keep the data on the device, then connect with the other account and merge the data.
    Details...
    When connected to the account you want to GET data from, Go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. 
    When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone. 
    After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, log into the other iCloud account using a different Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to this new account.
    Note that this only affects the "Apple data" like contacts, calendars, reminders, etc.  Many third party apps also use iCloud to store data files there.  These files may be lost in the process, unless the apps also keep the data locally on the device.
    NOTE:  Photos in the first account's photo stream (if you use it) will not transfer to the other account.  It is advised that you save the photos to a computer before performing the account switch. 

  • Can I set up two iTunes accounts on one computer?

    I have a personal iTunes account set up on my laptop, but I need to create an account for my school. Can I have two iTunes accounts on one computer?

    I think you can. But issues can happen when you sync, transfer, and back-up with itunes on computer.

  • Can I set up two ITune accounts on one MacBook?

    Can I set up two seperate ITune accounts on one MacBook? If so, how?

    Exactly what do you mean by set up?
    In iTunes you can authorize more than one iTunes accounts using the 'Authorize This Computer…' command under the Store menu. Run the commend twice for each account.
    Here's an article that explains what I'm talking about.

  • Can I merge my old iTunes account with my new iCloud account?

    I think I recall Apple maybe mentioning something like this before, but I've got an Apple ID from years ago with a @gmail.com that I don't use anymore a iCloud account I use all the time.   It's not a huge deal to log in and log back out with my other account to get apps and such I bought on my old account but I was wondering if there is a way to merge the two.

    Your music will only be where you put it.
    Copy it from your backup copy of your old comuter to your new one.
    If for some reson you have failed to maintain a backup copy, not good, then you can redownload some content in some countries:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Can I merge my Australian iTunes Account with my UK iTunes Account?

    I'm an Australian living in London and have an iTunes account in both countries.
    Is it possible to merge these accounts?
    What if both accounts could link to my @me.com account - or is .me not going to be around forever?
    Please Apple.. solve this problem with one universal email or account. For such a brilliantly simple company, this is a problem that needs a solution!

    Thanks for the feedback Ed.
    It was 18 months ago now that I moved over so inevitably I've setup a UK iTunes.
    With iCloud I now have 3 accounts - UK, Australia and @me.com!
    Surely there is a way to combine all three and have one universal password?

  • Can one computer have two iTunes accounts?

    I'd like to be able to plug and play my iPod on my girlfriends computer (and I'd like to get my library on here as well so I can get all my music off of my poor little laptop). I'm really not sure what version of Nano I have, all I know is that it's about two years old, so a G4 or 5? ::shrug:: I'm not sure what the evolutionary visualization of the Nano looks like. I don't want access to her library, just mine on her computer. Is this doable?

    I figured it out! I'm such a goof... All I had to do was turn on Home Sharing! ::smacks herself in the forehead:: Doh! ::sheepish grin:: Sorry everyone! I hope everyone has a satisfactory, non-denominational Capitalist, wintertime gift giving season!

  • HT4796 how can i merge my pc itunes account with my macbook itunes

    I wanna use the migration assisstant but i want it to be on my main mac profile, the migration thing says it will create a  new user account (totally effin lame). My question is whats the quickest and easiest way to get my itunes over. I have 45 gb of music, 8 gb of photos, 2 gb of videos and about 6 gb of apps. I have a lot of stuff so i know it will take a while. Im considering using my dads passport harddrive and making a copy then copying it over to the macbook. However I have heard formatting is an issue when going form pc to mac. Blahhh I just want all my data on my mac, on my profile. Thanks a lot if you could help me with this

  • Why Can't I link two iTunes Accounts to 1 PC?

    I share this new computer with my wife. We both have Apple Products. We, however, do not share a taste in music or apps. Now, one of us can connect to the computer to update, but the other cannot. This makes no sense. It says only one account can be associated with the comptuer every 90 days. So, I have to go buy another new computer to use my iphone? I think it would be cheaper to get rid of the iphone and go android. Hopefully, Apple will fix this and I don't have to go over to the dark side. I certainly don't have the money to buy another computer.

  • Somehow I have two apple accounts. Can I merge the two?

    I am not sure why but I have two apple accounts with two different email addresses.  This is causing problems with iMessages not syncing over my devices because the different email addresses cause messages to be sent to different devices so I miss messages.  Can I merge the two apple accounts, if so.  How?

    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 have iTune accounts under two separate Apple IDs.  Can I merge them into one account under one ID?

    I have iTune accounts under two separate Apple IDs.  Can I merge them into one account under one ID?  I have purchased music and video in both.

    No, it is not possible to merge accounts.  Choose one as the primary account and keep a local backup of all purchases so you don't get into the mess where you encounter a 90 day freeze on re-downloading past purchases from multiple accounts.
