Changing iTunes e-mail

Ok. I made the switch from Windows to OSX. Now, I want to use my .mac address as my iTunes account. Can I just enter my .mac address and it will automatically let me keep all the songs I purchased with the other account name? Also, my family will still be using the other account, is this ok?
Thanks,

I have the same issue. Did you get any solution for this?
In some forum i have seen a reply, that its just for verification sake the amount gets deducted. But its supposed to be credited back.
In my case its more than 5 days and still the amount is not credited back

  • Shared iTunes Library, Change of E-mail Address, Regaining iTunes Gift Card

    1) Is it possible to put the same iTunes library on two different computers? If so, how would I do that?
    2) Since losing my old iTunes library I’ve changed me e-mail address. Will I be able to change it once I install iTunes back onto my computer?
    3) I still had an iTunes gift card balance on my old iTunes library. Will I be able to get it back once I install it again?

    I've got the answers for two of my questions, and this is the one that's left:

  • I need to change my e-mail address in the app store to enable me to get updates and buy more. How does this happen??

    I need to change my e-mail address in the app store, how does that work??

    On apple website, seraching on support, the article HT1918 explains.
    Log into your apple ID and edit your personal information, where email can be changed as well. All applications as itunes stores, apple store and icloud use this same apple ID, so be aware of this.
    I hope I was helpful !

  • I have most of my music stored on my old iphone. i bought a new I pad, and signed up with a new e mail adress as my old one is defunct. How do i change my e mail adress to the new one, because it keeps telling me apple id already in use.

    You can change the primary email address on an account by logging into it via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com, or via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, or by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and logging into it.
    You won't be able to change it to an email address that is being used an alternate or rescue email address on the account (they can be viewed/changed/removed via http://appleid.apple.com), nor to one that is currently being used as the primary email address on an account

  • I recently changed my e-mail address and have made the changes in my Apple account. But when I try to purchase an app from the App Store on my ipad, the sign in cue still shows my old e-mail address rather than my new one.

    Hi there. I am having difficulty buying apps from the App Store. I recently changed my e-mail associated with my apple account. when i try to purchase an app, the cue to sign in does not show my new e-mail, but still shows my old e-mail. when I put in my password, it does not work because my password is no longer associated with the old e-mail address. i don't understand why my old e-mail still shows up. Can someone help me?

  • Can I change the e-mail address on this account?

    Let's say I'm trying to setup iCloud on my iPhone. In order to do so, I need to "verify my account."
    To do this, I need to check my e-mail. The e-mail which I have had for my iPhone has been "hacked," therefore I can't check that e-mail. I've been trying to figure out how to change my e-mail for my iPhone, but couldn't. I would rather not have to make a new account. Is there any way to change to change my e-mail?

    Try tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores on your devices (Settings > Store if they aren't on iOS 6+) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on them.

  • When I plug my i phone 4 into i tunes on the same computer that is used for the i pod touch it changes the e mail over to the i pod touch and i cant figure out how to get it back on the i phone account.  how do i fix this?

    Hi,  i need help.  When i plug into i tunes with my i phone 4 it changes the e mail account over to my daughters i pod touch account and i can't figure out how to separate the 2.  when i click on store,  it show up as my account but if i try to update an app or purchase anything it shows on the phone as her email and i need her password to do what i what.  it also puts her apps on my phone.  any advice would be appreciated.  thanks

    If you are being prompted for her Apple ID password when updating apps it means that there are one or more apps on your phone that were purchased with her ID.  (Apps and their updates are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them regardless of the settings on your phone.)  It's possible that you are inadvertently syncing her apps to your phone.  .  The only way to stop this is to delete these apps from your phone.  You may want to check which apps are checked on the Apps tab of your iTunes sync settings before syncing next time to be sure her apps aren't selected.
    To change the Apple ID used for purchasing, go to Settings>Store>Apple ID, tap the ID shown, sign out, sign back in using the ID you want to use.

  • Question about iCloud. How do I change my e-mail address, I have the wrong one and want to change it.

    question about iCloud.  How do I change my e-mail address, I got the wrong address.

    There are a variety of options available to you, including creating an email "alias" or changing the email address associated with your iCloud ID.
    For all practical purposes your iCloud email address and Apple ID are interchangeable. To change your Apple ID read Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID.
    If you simply created an Apple ID in error, you might consider abandoning it altogether and creating a new one. On the other hand, if you already used that Apple ID to purchase iTunes or other digital content, don't create a new Apple ID, because any purchases you already made are inexorably linked to the Apple ID used to make them.

  • I need help with changing my e-mail. I just made this account today and I want to delete it or change the e-mail. Help would be very nice!

    Hello can you tell me how to terminate my account(DELETE IT!) or change the e-mail. I went to privacy setting and my e-mail was shown, but nothing about changing it. I went to profile settings and there was nothing about deleting it so any help would be highly appreciated!

    Deleting the iTunes account is not the solution as you will very likely lose any and all purchases ever made with the account.
    If you cannot find the option on the site, contact iTunes support.

  • HT5312 Dear Sir/Madam, I have apple ID  for my iphone 5, but unfortunately I forgot my security answers. I'm trying to reset my security answers, but rescue e-mail what is mentioned no more exist. How to change rescue e-mail addres?

    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I have apple ID  for my iphone 5, but unfortunately I forgot my security answers. I'm trying to reset my security answers, but rescue e-mail what is mentioned no more exist. Could you help me to change rescue e-mail adress?
    Hope of your help.
    Thank you in advance.

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple
    You won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer your questions, you will need to contact Support to get the questions reset.
    I assume that you are in the country Georgia, not the US state. In which case try contacting Support via this page and explain that you've forgotten your answers, don't have access to your rescue email account, and your country isn't on the HT5699 page (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699) and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    When they've been reset you can then use steps 1 to 7 half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to update your rescue email address for potential future use
