    You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

    How did you manage this?

  • I have two accounts with iTunes.  Can they be merged or somehow combined so that I can have access to everything from both my old iPod Touch and my new iPhone5?

    No.
    You can authorize your computer for both accounts.  Put all of the music on one computer.  Sync your devices to that computer.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't.
    You can't merge accounts or transfer content.

  • I have an iPhone and sync it with iTunes.  Just got my wife an iPhone also.  Is it possible to have 2 accounts in iTunes 1 for my wife and 1 for myself?  I don't want to mess up things like contacts on either phone.

    The best is to create another Windows user profile(additional User Account) where each one of you can manage your own account, library, playlist Apps, Contacts etc,

  • HT204053 I have two accounts with ITunes can I merge the two

    I have two account with ITune and I would like to merge them.. any help with this ..

    Sorry, Apple IDs cannot be merged.
    From Here   http://support.apple.com/kb/HE37
    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.

  • TS1538 Hi, I have the problem which iTunes cannot detect my iPhone 4s. I tried the steps you have provided in your troubleshooting, but it won't work for me because the Apple Mobile Devilce is perfectly installed on my windows.

    Hi, I have the problem which iTunes cannot detect my iPhone 4s. I tried the steps you have provided in your troubleshooting, but it won't work for me because the Apple Mobile Devilce is perfectly installed on my windows. However, the driver "Microsoft teredo Tunneling adapter" has a yellow exclamation mark, which i believe means it's not installed correctly or something is wrong with it. This driver is under the Network Adapters (Please see picture below).
    This is what happens when I connect my iPhone 4s to my laptop (Windows 7 Starter 32-bit)
    1. The phone charges it's battery
    2. I can open it in My Computer and import/export media files.
    In iTunes
    3. It start to sync until step 3 then stops.
    4. The iPhone option with an arrow appears beside the iTunes Store, but when the arrow is clicked it disappears.
    I hope you can provide me a solution for this problem.
    Thanks,
    Ralph

    Hi ralphagir,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    For your iTunes issue with it not recognizing your iPhone, I would go ahead and suggest deleting iTunes and all of its components from your Windows computer and installing fresh.
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
    Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel
    Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
    Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
    As far as the arrow button that you click and the iPhone disappears, it sounds like you may be clicking on the eject button. Please take a look at the following article for information on the eject button in iTunes.
    Safely disconnect iPod

    Have a great day,

    BEfore you try to Restore it, try a simple Reset.
    Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off option that shows up first).

  • Do i need to have an upgrade available to trade in my iPhone 5s for a 6

    do I need to have an upgrade available to get the iPhone 6 if I trade in my 5s?

        Great question, ajt3917! You would need to be eligible for an upgrade in order to take advantage of the promotion. If you are not eligible, you can appraise your device at vzw.com/trade in and purchase the iPhone 6 at full retail cost. You will then be able to apply the gift card towards your bill to help off set the charge.
    Let us know if you have questions,
    Thank you,

  • Have to re-install iTunes everytime I sync iPhone 4

    The most annoying thing ever, for ages I couldn't get my computer to recognise my new iPhone, after trying everything I re-installed iTunes and it worked. I then plugged it in the day after and it wouldn't recognise it was plugged in, it didn't come up in finder or in iTunes. So I re-installed iTunes again, and it worked. I synced up my iPhone twice more and have just gone to sync a 3rd time and AGAIN it is not recognised, and will not show up anywhere on my mac. Do I seriously have to re-install iTunes everytime I want to update songs or anything on my iPhone? I have tried everything that is suggested in forums and on the Apple site, nothing works except un-installing and then re-installing iTunes, but I can't do this everytime! Somebody help please??
    Thankyou greatly.

    Hi, this is a problem I'm having too, down to the last detail. I think I've found the solution, I'll see if I can't test it though.
    In the past, I deleted 'iTunes Helper' from my LogIn Items...
    This fits in with the symptoms, as a fresh launch of iTunes would run that, but then depend on it being in your startup items, unless of course you deleted it. This must be why restarting the computer is a recommended troubleshoot, if the process was stopped for whatever reason restarting woud get it to kick in.
    • Go to  > System Preferences > Accounts
    I'm guessing iTunes Helper isn't in the list, if my theory's right on this?
    • Click the plus sign under the list.
    What you want to add is part of the contents of the iTunes app, you won't be able to route to it traditionally.
    While the File Browsing window is open (the one that dropped down when you clicked the '+'),
    • Press Shift-Command-G
    • In the field that pops up, paste this path:
    /Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/MacOS/iTunesHelper.app
    and click 'Ok'. iTunes Helper is now in the list.
    • Tick it
    So that it will be on automatically at login.
    I've not seen yet if this fixes it for me, but I have STRONG suspiscions considering the role of this app is to detect iPods and iPhones, and because of the particular work-around we've been using matching.
    Best of luck to all of us! Here goes....

  • HT203167 i have two accounts on itunes.  I can only sync one of them on my new ipad.  the Apple Store technician did a full backup to Icloud but I dont know how to retrieve it

    help!

    No I have checked and it is not in any junk folder.  When I joined apple I must have given them another  email address which is no longer functional. Now caught in endless loop....I think I need to speak to apple rep to find out how to get out if this mess with old i.d.with a password that is impossible to find or change. I have quite a few apps on my ipad so I think I will need to try and find some way of keeping that I.d. and being able to access that account.
    Any help would be appreciated.
