Can I replace my original Apple ID with a different one?

I just retired from teaching. My original Apple ID is my school email address. Now that I'm retired I'd like to use my personal email account as my ID. If I replace the original ID with the new one, will  I have access to everything that was associated with my original ID?  Thank you in advance for the help.

Change AppleID - https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/  then > Manage Your Account
To continue to change it for iTunes:
Select the iTunes store in iTunes.
Click the account name at top right, sign out then sign back in.
Apple ID Support - http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/  -> Apple ID FAQ http://support.apple.com/kb/HE37
Yes, changing an ID will still give you access to previous purchases, making a new account with new ID will not.

    You can change your email address as much as you want in your support profile: https://supportprofile.apple.com/
    Purchases are linked to your Apple ID, not your email address. They are not necessarily identical.

  • Can I replace an older Airport Extreme with a newer one by importing configuration file

    Can I import the configuration file from an older Airport base station into a newer replacement Airport base station?  It would seem this would save me a lot of extra work.  First, it would hopefully save time by automatically configuring the new base station without me having to fiddle with the settings.  Second, it might hopefully save some more time if I would not have to re-enter the network parameters for all the devices currrently connected to my Airport (wi-fi) network.
    Read on for more details.
    My old Apple Airport Extreme Base Station (AEBS) is not a gigabit one.  Moreover, it's been experiencing some hardware failures recently.  So, I recently purchased a new Apple Airport Extreme (base station) that is a gigabit one (Model# ME918LL/A with 802.11ac Wi-FI).  Now, I'd like to replace the older base station with this newer one with the MINIMAL amount of disruption and manual work possible.
    Regards,
    Tony

    I relaced an older AEBS with the new one, recently, and did not need to import anything, but if you can save the configuration file from your old one, then you can import it to the new one. I've never tried that when I switched, and it didn't seem to matter which suggests the configuration file may be on disk somewhere.

  • If I replace my old Apple ID with a new one, will I get my purchased apps?

    If I replace my old Apple ID with a new Apple ID, will I get back all my purchased apps in app store?

    No. The purchase history is tied to your iTunes store account.
    Maybe there is a different way to achieve your objective. Why do you think you need to change your account name?

  • Can I replace my old Apple ID with my new iCloud email address?

    For years, my Apple ID has been associated with an external email address. Now that iCould users are given an "@me.com" email address for free, I would like to use that as my new Apple ID.
    When I try to edit my primary email address using these instructions, this is the message I get:
    You cannot create an Apple ID using a MobileMe account. If this is your email address, it is also your Apple ID.
    I can't really figure out what this means. Is my Apple ID is permanently bound to the external email address? Seems pretty silly that I wouldn't be able to associate my Apple ID with my iCloud email...

    Think of your Apple ID that is bound to an external email address as an Anonymous Apple ID account.  The email address can be changed to any other email address that is not an Apple ID, iCloud, MobileMe, Mac, etc. account.  iCloud, MobileMe, Mac, etc. accounts are just Apple ID accounts in disguise.  So the bottom line is no, but you can use both independantly.

  • Can I replace my current iPhone 5s with a new one in this case?

    I just got my iPhone 5s two days ago, but it already has problems when I was trying to text with it while charging. The phone was doing all these random things like mis-sensed my typing really badly, jumping out to the main screen and even called the person I was texting. I even tried typing messages in Whatsapp, it constantly hides the keyboard from time to time and that's really irritating. While it's on lock screen, I could not slide to unlock it, I had to use my finger scan to access my phone in the end. The phone went normal again once I got the charge unplugged, but it went crazy again once I got it plugged in. I truely believe it's something wrong with the phone rather than the charger. Can I replace my current phone with a new one in this case?

    Take it back. This is a warranty/purchase issue. We are just users here.

  • Can I replace the curent hard drive with a larger one in my early 08 Book

    OK - we have had this machine for alittle over a year. I bought it as a refurb from Mac (my personal favorite way to buy anything Mac) and we are running out of space. I have all of our pics on an external HD but still have the music on the main HD of the MacBook.
    I know that the options of putting my iTunes library on the external is always there, but I HATE HATE HATE having things not on my machine. Things never seem to work just right when they are accessed remotely. Maybe I am not doing something right with the networking, but there seems to always be a delay. With the music, we have Airport connecting 2 remote sets of speakers and the AppleTV and there seems to be a delay even empty spots in the music when I am playing it remotely.
    SO - what options do I have on the internal HD of my MacBook or can you make suggestions on the remote synching of the external HD and libraries, etc.
    Many thanks for your help!
    David

    If you want to upgrade the HDD to 320GB/500GB and then upgrade the RAM to 4GB:
    RAM you want to buy:
    [G.Skill 2X2GB PC2-5300 RAM|http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231135] for $34.99, no tax, and free shipping.
    As for HDD I'll give you some options between [320GB, 400GB, or 500GB along with 5400RPM or 7200RPM|http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=Property&Subcateg ory=380&Description=&Type=&N=2010150380&srchInDesc=&MinPrice=&MaxPrice=&Property CodeValue=359%3A15133&PropertyCodeValue=3097%3A33643&PropertyCodeValue=3097%3A40 008&PropertyCodeValue=3097%3A40009&PropertyCodeValue=355%3A7777&PropertyCodeValu e=355%3A7776]:
    I'd recommend the Hitachi 5k320 $59.99 after $10 rebate, 7k320 $59.98 after $20 rebate, or one of the 5400 RPM 500GB HDDs for $94.99 or $99.99.
    You can also get a bit of cash back plus $5 through this [link|http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?referrerid=DMMneqKtzskNampKdYmMZA%3D%3D]

  • Can we replace an old serial board with a new one found available on your site?

    So.. we are using Lookout 5.0 to operate a plant, and we have a PCI SERIAL RS 232/485 ISOLATED 2 PORTS board, with the code 185726C-02 printed on that board, which is used to comunicate with some solenoids modules. I search your site for a replacement for that board, and I found the PCI-8433/2 board which seems to be compatible. Question: is it ok to use this board instead the old one with Lookout 5 if we update the NI SERIAL drivers from your site?
    Thanks in advance ..

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.

    You can use the keyboard you want with your iMac. However, note that some keys, as the Command key, aren't present in non-Apple keyboards. For example, in a non-Apple keyboard, you have to press the Windows key because that's the replacement of the Command key of an Apple keyboard

  • Can you replace a powermac g5 mbd with and Intel mbd?

    Can you replace a powermac g5 mbd with and Intel mbd?

    I think you would have to do a lot of work in addition to just replacing the motherboard. Like getting a new power supply for instance as the cables won't match what Apple specs for their designed and built hardware. I think the best you can hope for is to reuse the Aluminum tower case, and that's about it.
