Can I re-downlaod music already purchased with another Apple ID?

I have an Apple ID separate from my family's so that I don't have all of their music I don't like. In the past, I was able to sign onto theirs with my iPhone and re-download songs they had that I didn't want to buy again. Then one day, it randomly said that my device could only be associated with one Apple ID and I could use another one in 90 days. I don't want to wait that long so I was wondering why this happened and is there a way I can still get their music? All of their music is on the computer and I honestly have no idea if I can put their music on my phone using said computer. Can I? If so, please give me steps how. Thank you.

There are several ways you can do this:

  • How can I play music I purchased with another apple id

    My AppleID has always been my email address.  I had to change it about a year ago and now I can't access anything I purchased from the iTunes store with that ID.  How do I get my music I paid for?

  • It says "this device is already associated with another apple ID" and it will not download previous purchases.

    It says "this device is already associated with another apple ID" and it will not download previous purchases. This is a new iPad 4 as my last iPad 4 was stolen. How can I fix this issue, can I fix this issue?

    Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset and Erase all Content
    This returns the iPad to its original state then setup the iPad as new.

  • I downloaded apps purchased with another Apple ID. But my data is missing. What can I do to get them back? I have a different iCloud id.

    All apps are tied forever to the Apple ID used to obtain them, that is also true with In-App purchases.
    Content bought using one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID.

  • HT204074 my new computer says it's already associated with another apple id

    This 90-day timer is very frustrating, especially considering the fact that, when I try to sync my iPhone5 to iTunes on my new laptop, I get the message that it is already associated with another apple id...how can that be?? Must I really (really?) wait 80-something more days before I have the opportunity to correct this? What's to say I will be able to, considering this current 'association error' happened without my knowing how/when/why, etc.? Grrrr...Apple.
    I seem to remember a prior post that mentioned Apple fixed that particular problem for them via phone? How do I get through to that helpful person? What channels do I follow when support depends on serial number or info unrelated to my question? Ugh - thanks in advance for the help - please word it as simply as you can because I feel like a real dunce.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You'll have to choose between cancelling and Transfering. If you transfer you won't be able to use music purchased under your account or change your settings for 90 days.

  • Why do i have to wait 90 days to download music I bought with another apple ID?

    My iphone 5 is now linked to a 'business' Apple ID.   I would like to change that to a personal apple Id that i used to purchase many songs.    I did change the apple ID but when I turned on 'automatic downloads' for music, a message appeared saying:   'This device is already associated with an apple ID.  If you turn on auto-downloads, you cannot download past purchases with a different apple ID for 90 days'.      
    Why do i have to wait 90 days to use music i bought with another apple ID?   Is there another way to do this so that I don't have to wait 90 days?
    Thanks

    No. There is no getting around this limitation.

  • Message "already verified with another apple id"

    trying to purchase an app and it tells me i"m not verified. I have done this about 5 times!!! it keeps telling me I'm already verified with another apple id???

    Are you sure you don't have another ID? If you purchased Apple hardware you may very well have been given an ID as part of the registration process. You can check this by going to http://appleid.apple.com and clicking 'Find My Apple ID'. Follow the instructions and it should list any IDs you have.
    However once an address has been associated with an Apple ID you can't use it with another (even if it's removed from the first) so you are probably going to have to use another address, such as a free one from Yahoo or GMail.

  • How can i re download movies onto my iPad if the device 'is already associated with another apple id'?

    Every time I try to play a movie/tv show on my ipad that i've bought but haven't downloaded, a message comes up saying 'This device is already associated with an apple id, you can download past purchases on this device with just one apple id every 90 days. You cannot associate this devicethis device with a different apple id for 90 days'. I have no idea what this means so I will be eternally grateful if someone could help.

    Well I changed the email for the same account, however I used '.com' instead of '.co.uk' which obviously caused alot of complications. After about an hour on the phone this is all sorted out now and I am left with one apple id, but this is still happening. If this makes no sense to anyone I don't blame you as it took me a good half hour to get my own head round it.

  • This computer is already associated with another Apple ID

    Hi people!
    Please excuse me if I described anything not exactly as it may appear on English systems but Spanish is my language of choice.
    At home, my boyfriend and me share a Macbook Pro and we have a user account for each one. In each account, each of us has an Apple ID with their music or apps purchased. Problem is, I can't login and download my purchases or use iTunes Match because the computer is already linked to another Apple ID, I guess that is my boyfriend's account.
    Can't we use our respective Apple ID in our user accounts? If I wait for 38 days and then I use my account, will he be able to use his, or will he be "punished" like me? This is cumbersome. I've tried to solve this with Apple Support but never could finally arrive to a solution with them. Thanks for any hints.

    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 -  In connection with, "When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID." "Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days." - Additionally instructions for "Removing an associated device or computer from an Apple ID"
    It's done that way because the media owners who can tell Apple what to do don't want people going around to their friends' houses and downloading all their iTunes music on the friends' computers too.  If you're going to share a computer make sure you avoid doing the things listed above that will cause this message to appear.  Keep a backup of your purchases on an external drive.

  • Any truth to Apple letting you re-downlaod music already purchased that somehow got lost...or inmy case, deleted

    I moved my music files to an external harddrive that has since been corrupted.  I can't retrieve my hundreds of songs and was really bummed about it until two people told me that Apple will honor a one time re-downloading deal for music that you already purchased.  I need to get up on that for realz

    Upgrade to 10.3 or later and go to the itunes store and then go to Purchases (NEW). You can redownload them as many times as needed with the new cloud network. I know what you mean, I recently had my iphone to die on me and i lost everything from the past 3 weeks since my last backup, but itunes let me redownload them. hope this helps

  • How can i recover itunes music already purchased but lost when system crashed

    how can i contact itunes directly about problem with purchased music?

  • I purchased a new iMac and can't download Pages update. The message said that it was purchased with another Apple Id or by different user.

    Update Unavailable with This Apple ID. This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled.

    Perform the following, stopping with the first one which works:
    1. Open the Mac App Store's Purchases tab. If you're prompted to accept it and the other iWork/iLife applications into your Apple ID, do so.
    2. Move them out of the Applications folder(they may need to be put into the Trash temporarily), and then see if you can download them for free from their individual product pages. If you're asked to buy them, see #3.
    3. Click here, contact Apple, and wait for a response.
    4. Buy them.

  • HT201272 Can't re-download music already purchased, the download button is deactivated.

    Itunes store has my purchased download button deactivated, so I can't re-download songs.  What is the problem?

    Have the same problem. The country is the USA.
    USA permits re-downloads.
    So do you have another suggestion? Here's what Apple support says:
    "click the iCloud download button next to each item to download them one by one, or click the iCloud Download All button at the bottom."
    Unfortunately there is no "iCloud download button". Did a google images search for same, and it's definitely not there. What is there is a greyed-out icon which says "Downloaded." Click on this and the only option is "remove from list."
