Cannot access music purchased with an earlier email ID

I cannot access music purchased with an earlier email that is no longer valid.  Do you know how I sync all my e-mail addresses under one ID?

Perhaps iTunes Store Support could help you:

... but the key to success will very likely be to figure out that password.  Then you would be able to authorize that account in iTunes.

  • ITunes is making me authorize my computer to access music purchased with an old email address (never used as Apple ID).

    iTunes is making me authorize my computer to access music purchased with an old email address (never used as Apple ID).  How do I delete this old email address from my account if it doesn't even show up in my profile?

    Same thing here. I am getting the authorization message with iPad, 2 iPods and 3 iPhones. I'm furious about this. I reviewed my itunes account info and everything looks accurate. I downloaded a movie this morning and I can't sync it to iPad. Let's see what explanation is offered. 

  • Apple made me change my ID, now I cannot play music purchased with old ID's

    So, first iTunes let me purchase with my aol.com ID. Then made me make up a new one. Now, had me go back to aol.com and I cannot play my music previously associated with that ID on my iTunes. It asks me to authorize the computer, which I did, and then asks me to do it again and again and again.
    I have signed in/out. I have looked for the music on my history of purchases and cannot find the old music anywhere. I tried signing in with my old ID and that did not work. When I hit info on the songs I can see when and with what ID it was purchased so I know it is with the old ID. Grrrr. Any suggestions?

    Have you tried....
    Using the old ID and password? Sign into the old ID and use that password to delete the account.
    Using the new password and see if it will accept that one?

  • TA22652 Some of my music was purchased with an old email address which I no longer have. I have forgotten the password to it and can no longer use music from old account. We moved and no longer have the same email service, but would like to use all music

    Some of my music was purchased with an old email address (old account) which is no longer valid. Since it has been a long time since we used the email address we no longer know the password. Now I can't access the music from my old account due to using a new computer. I've purchased the music and downloaded cds with the old account and need to be able to get my music.
    Thank  you!!

  • V 7.0.2 - Unauthorized to play music purchased with old email address acct.

    Has anyone else stumbled onto this? I have one iPod and one computer which I buy all of my music off iTunes from - But I had an old email address last year that I used to buy a lot of my music with. Since I upgraded, I cannot sync, play, or burn any purchased music that was purchased with the old email address. I tried authorizing under my new email address and password (I even get a sucessful message) but then when I go to play - it gives me the message "This computer is not authorized to play this song - would you like to authorize it?" But the message shows my old email address.
    Any advise is appreciated.

    I'm sorry that I have no solution to offer but I do have the same problem. Apple pointed out to me that I need to aothorize my computer using my previous account information (AOL) but that didn't work. Very annoying to have to do this when upgrading software. I will think twice before upgrading again or before buying from iTunes for that matter.

  • HT1386 I synced my Macbook with Iphone4s, but cannot access music when I launch itunes on iphone. I don't even see my library on iphone. The usage option in settings shows that there is music copied on iPhone. I just can't access it. Could anyphone please

    I am a new iTunes user. I have synced my iphone 4s to macbook using iTunes, but I cannot access music in iPhone. I cannot access library when I launch iTunes on my iPhone. When I go to settings->usage->music, I see that there is enough music in the phone to suggest that music has been synced with iTunes. I just don't know how to access it. Could someone pleas help?

    If you want to drag and drop then you would have to select Manually Manage Music.
    Otherwise, just sync your music.

  • Playing music purchased with apple id from closed email account

    i can't play music purchased with an apple id from another email account that no longer exists
    Please Help!!!

    Is it an old Apple ID of yours? If so, then whether the email is still valid or not, the Apple ID is still there. You need to authorize that ID to your computer by signing it onto iTunes and then clicking on Store on the top menu, then Authorize this computer.
    If you don't remember the password to that old ID, you can change it here: Apple - My Apple ID
    If you don't remember your Security Questions, you can have them reset by iTunes Support:

  • Cannot play music purchased under old apple id after new hard drive installed

    Replaced crashed HD and used Time Machine to restore to 10.7.5. Had changed my Apple ID a while backe (couple months). Now music purchased with old ID will not play, asking me to authorize under old ID, have no idea what the password was and the email address is no longer valid, so...how do I rgain access to those albums purchased under old ID? It plays on my iphone fine.

    You may still be able to reset the password to your old Apple ID via iforgot.apple.com.
    The old tracks will continue to play on the iPhone as long as they are on it but you may find they get deleted if you try to sync with your library while it isn't authorized for your old ID.

  • Cannot access music store - error message 404

    ok- i guess i'm looking for an explanation more than a solution. while trying to download a song (as usual) this morning i received an error message for the first time ever. "cannot access music store. please try again later. 404" ... for 2 hours i searched the net for a solution, checked my firewall, even joined this forum. right before posting this message again, i tried to download the song so i'd be able to explain the error message in this posting. but itunes decided to work.
    my question-- does itunes sometimes time out because of heavy traffic? will this problem lessen if i upgrade to a newer version? (btw- how do i do that? i checked off "dont remind me again" when the pesky reminder would pop up... now i want to upgrade.)

    Hi - I have the same problem. With the additional wrinkle that I can't close iTunes when it can't connect to the Music store. I have to use Task Manager to kill it. I am totally fed up with Apple for their lack of support on this. However, I have had one thought though: I notice that iTunes registers itself with Windows Firewall as an exceptional program that is allowed to receive incoming network connections. I don't object to that - but the thing is I am using a network modem which has its own built-in firewall. If iTunes has to be able to receive incoming network connections, don't I have to configure the network modem's firewall to treat it as an exception too? I have just done a search for "iTunes Firewall" in Google and it came up with loads of promising looking stuff. I will investigate further.

  • Cannot access site ending with #

    Some links within sites end with #. i cannot access these sites with firefox. IE works fine. i have 3.6.3 with Java 6.0.200.2
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    You must have been disabled scripts in this site.
    I'm using No-Script.
    At first I blocked all scripts @firstdirect.com
    and when clicked on: internet banking
    it sent me to #
    Then I enabled all the scripts @firstdirect.com
    and when clicked on: internet banking
    it sent me to login site.
    So please make sure that you haven't blocked the site from using scripts (which is probably the problem here).
    Post if still need help.

  • After restoring my ipad 1 I cannot access my purchased apps

    After restoring my ipad 1 I cannot access my purchased apps.  I am asked for my apple ID, and when I give it, it is not recognized.
    Does anyone have an solution?

    See if signing out and restarting refreshes your account.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try again.
     Can you download a free app by any chance - a new app - not a purchased app. Maybe that will help reset your account.
