How can I change everything from my old account to my new one?

I have had a shared account with my family for about 5 years, but now I am planning to make a new account just for myself. How can I move all my music, apps, books, movies, etc to my new account? Will I lose any items? How do I authorize my iphone to the new account?

Items purchased with one account remain permanently linked to that account and cannot be transferred to another account. You will have to use purchases from two accounts which may be troublesome in some situations. Make sure you maintain backups on local drives so you minimize the need to re-download purchases.
Family Sharing may be helpful.
Family Sharing - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT201060 - "Family Sharing makes it easy for up to six people in your family to share each other’s iTunes, iBooks, and App Store purchases without sharing accounts. Pay for family purchases with the same credit card and approve kids’ spending right from a parent’s device. And share photos, a family calendar, and more to help keep everyone connected."
Sharing purchased content with Family Sharing - http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201085 - "With Family Sharing, family members get immediate access to each others’ music, movies, TV shows, books, and apps, and can download them to their own devices any time they like.*" "* Not all content and content types are available in all countries. All family members must use the same iTunes Store country or region. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers.

How can I migrate data from an old MBA to a new one without having access to the screen of the old one? The screen of the old MBA is damaged !

If your "older" MBA has a Thunderbolt port then it isn't that old. See Target Disk Mode about how it's used. Note that without a monitor you won't be able to tell from the screen when it has fully started, and if it succeeded in starting in TDM. If it did, then the hard drive should appear on the Desktop of your new computer. You can then access it to transfer your files. You can even use Migration Assistant or any backup utility to transfer data. Just don't try to transfer system files.

How can I import contacts from another AIM account to this new one??

Hi,
Use AIM for Mac and use the Export and Import features.
Other than that it is a question on making sure every Single Buddy has more than just their Screen name in the IChat Address Card so it is added to the Address Book and dragging them back from there

I just bought a new ipod shuffle, how can i transfer music from my old ipod onto the new one

How do I transfer from my old ipod to my new ipod

You can't transfer it directly. If the old iPod is set to sync to your iTunes library on the computer, everything on the iPod is in your iTunes library. Just set up the shuffle to sync from your iTunes library as desired.
If the old iPod is set to Manually manage music, AND there are songs on the iPod that are not in your current iTunes library, please post back.

If I buy an ipad 2 with more memory, can i transfer everything from my old ipad to the new one

If I purchase an ipad 2 with more memory, can I transfer all the contents of the old ipad to the new one?

You can backup your current iPad, and then restore the new iPad from that backup (a list of what is included in a backup is in this article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4079 - it excludes music, videos, synced photos). As the backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their settings and content, for the restore to work completely you'll need all the relevant apps in your computer's iTunes library - otherwise the restore won't be able to install the apps and therefore their content (if you don't have the apps on your computer then you can re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)
Restoring onto a different device won't restore passwords so you'll need to enter your router and email passwords and any passwords stored on websites.

How can I transfer elements from an old document to a new one?

Hi everybody,
I'm quite new to InDesign and not really from this area, so I'm having a tough time learning how to use it. My first project is what I first thought would be simple for a start: a recipe book. So I started using different master pages for different categories - meat, fish, soups, etc. - and had my first problem when finding out it is not a good idea to have text frames in the master page, cause everytime I change something there and apply it to the others, it kind of messes up the existing pages and I get lots of duplicated frames. it got so messed up I figured the best thing would be to start a completely new document (I also found out I had the wrong margins and can use a normal A4 with bleed, and no bigger-sized page, as I'd done).
Now I decided to start the whole thing over again, but I don't want to start from zero. So how can I:
1) import my existing gradients?
2) import my character styles and colors?
3) import my texts? (I guess this is not very difficult, so I figure I can find out, but please tell me if there are any "tricks", cause I'm thinking of exporting my doc as txt and copy-pasting.)
I'm sorry if this has already been posted in this forum or can be found in the help-section, but I swear I have looked for it and couldn't find it...
Thanks already in advance!

easiest are steps 1) and 2) :)
make copy of your document, add new blank page on the end, select all pages without last - click delete icon :)
next - delete all MasterPages
next - redefine page size, margins, add MasterPages, etc.
now - you can copy&paste your texts from old document :)

How can I transfer songs from my old Ipod to my new one?

I just bought a new ipod video from apple and I would like to transfer all of my songs from my old 3rd generation ipod to my new one, how can I do this?

Download iRip, the program will detect your iPod then select "recover". If you have a firewire connection this will be fast. If you have a new iPod then you'll wait a little longer for your music to be ripped. When everything's recovered you eject the old iPod and connect the new one, drag'n drop, voilá. Don't forget to get rid of your music once you are sure it's installed -and maybe backuped in a external hard drive- so your computer memory won't be affected.
I use mac, I'm noticing that you are windows, if this don't work, google "rip ipod" and you'll find something there. Hope it works!

How can i get music from my old iphone to the new one

how do i transfer my music nd pictures to my new iphone from the old one?

All music on your old iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer and can be transferred to your new iPhone in the same way - via the iTunes sync process.
All photos on your old iPhone that were transferred from your computer should remain on your computer. These photos can be transferred to your new iPhone in the same way - via the iTunes sync process.
Photos/videos in your old iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. After being imported by your computer, they can be transferred to your new iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process.

If you go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup, you will see an option title "iCloud Backup". Turn it on. Allow the backup to complete on your old device.
When setting up your new device, you will be asked if you want to set up your device as a new device, or restore from a backup. Choose that you want to restore from an iCloud backup, and choose the backup with the name of your old phone. It may take several minutes to several hours (depending on the amount of data backed up and the speed of your internet connection) to restore your data, but it will restore all of your iCloud data, as well as your apps and photos.

I had an iPhone 4, and I have just gotten an iPhone 5. How do I restore all of my content and settings from iCloud. The sales lady skipped through that option when she "set up" my phone...

When you go through Setup Assistant on a new iOS device, choose "Restore from iCloud Backup" and enter your iCloud account and password. You will see the three most recent backups for each of the devices on which you enabled Backup. Choose from which backup to restore.

How do I transfer everything from my old iPod to the new one for FREE?

I just purchased a new iPod Classic (7th Gen) and need to copy everything over to my new iPod. I was trying to use "iPod 2 iPod" but they want $40 for it and I am not spending $40 just to do a one time transfer. Is there any program out there that dose what "iPod 2 iPod" dose but is FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!! and available for Windows?

NO, like most people I don't use iTunes like that, all my music is backed up on external hard drives and stored on DVD's, it is never all in the same place and I am not going to keep all my music on my computers hard drive and take up all the space. Now if only there was some magical amazing device that is like a laptop with a lot of storage space but only smaller that people could take anywhere to listen to all of there favorite music so they would not have to fill up there laptop or desktop's hard drive and/or drag around a computer where ever they go... oh wait, something like that already exists, it's called a #$%^*&! IPOD!!!. That is the whole point... The only place I keep most of my music on is my iPod but Apple and there infinite wisdom for some reason decided that iTunes would be the place where people would keep and manage their music and not the iPod, So since I can only sync my iPod with iTunes but CANT sync iTunes with my iPod I would be unable to do as you have suggested.
