How can I have two Apple IDs (one from Canada and one from the UK) for the same device?

I originally bought an iPhone in Canada and had my first Apple ID while there. I still want to have this account, as there are some Canadian apps that I wish to have and keep updating. However, I am now living in the UK - yet when I try to search for apps that all of my friends have I can't find them because they are particular to Britain. Do I need an new Apple ID for the UK, and is it possible to have both Apple IDs feeding into the same iTunes account?
Thanks for any insight!

If you want to move your iCloud account to another existing ID you'll have to delete the existing account, set up a new account with the other ID, then upload your data to the new account.  To do this, begin by going to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your phone.  After everything is turned off you can scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Then set up the new account with your other ID and turn syncing for calendars, contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload your data to the new account.  Note: this will not migrate your photo stream photos.  You will need to save these prior to deleting the existing account.

  • Can you have two Apple IDs on one IPAD? One for school and one for home?

    Can you have two Apple IDs on one IPAD? One for school and one for home?
    If so do you know how to do it?

    It depends on what you want to do.
    You could, for example, have one AppleID for iCloud backup [and therefore message syncing, notes syncing, etc] and a second one for iTunes [music, iBooks, etc].
    But if you are looking for a way to flip everything between different appleIDs, then no.

  • Can you have two apple ids on one mac?

    Can you have two apple ids on one mac? We each have iPhones and want to utilize iCloud.  Is this possible?

    No, in this case the 2 user accounts with its own Apple IDs would be completely seperated.
    If you want to share this things like music and app purchases you will have to to something else.
    1. Create two user accounts on your Mac (user A and user B).
    2. Create two iCloud accounts just for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Photos, etc. (one for user A and one for user B):
    On your Mac (with Mac OS X Lion or Mountan Lion):
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > iCloud > Create an Apple ID (button in left corner)
    On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch (iOS 5 or later):
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > iCloud > Get a free @me.com address and create a new Apple ID
    3. It is not recommended because you shouldn't share your Apple ID account information with other people but you could set up your old Apple ID as an account just for store purchases (Apps, Music, ...) so that everyone of you can manage the purchases in their own library (Access is limited to 10 devices). Therefore you have to setup this "old" ID in Settings of your iOS devices (Settings > iTunes & App Store) and in iTunes on your Mac.

    how can I merge two Apple-IDs?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Apple will not merge two Apple IDs, nor will Apple transfer content from one ID to another.

  • HT1918 How can I merge two Apple IDs?

    Had a previous account but then when I bought my first iPhone. (iPhone 5) I thought I had to set a new account. So now I want to be able to use one ID that has all.

    Sorry... You Cannot...

    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.

  • How can I have two different styles of hyperlink text on one page?

    Hi
    I'm using an external css document to control the look of my site, and would like to have two differnet types of hyperlink.
    One for within the content text, which would be the same size and style as the content text, and one that is BIGGER and BOLDER for 'title' hyperlinks.
    At the minute I have one set up for the content text, which is:
    a:link {
    color: #0000CC;
    text-decoration: none;
    a:visited {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #666666;
    a:hover {
    text-decoration: underline;
    color: #0000CC;
    a:active {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #666666;
    How can I set another style up for the title links without affecting the look of the content links??

    Pseudo-classes & Descendant selectors is what you're after...
    From your example, I would leave those styles for your standard links and would create new rules for the content area and then follow similar for your 'titles' or you could use Headings <h1> are they are actually headings that you want styled.
    The following is assuming that you have used a Div or a container with an ID of mainContent.
    #mainContent a:link {
         text-decoration: underline;
         color: #66CC99;
    #mainContent a:visited {
         text-decoration: underline;
         color: #66CC99;
    #mainContent a:hover {
         text-decoration: none;
         color: #333333;
         background-color: #FFFFFF;
    #mainContent a:active {
         text-decoration: underline;
         color: #66CC99;
    For another area of the page, say a left sidebar and gave it an ID of #leftcolumn 
    (I've used the same styles for easier copying pasting, but naturally, you would style then differently)
    #leftcolumn a:link {
         text-decoration: underline;
         color: #66CC99;
    #leftcolumn a:visited {
         text-decoration: underline;
         color: #66CC99;
    #leftcolumn a:hover {
         text-decoration: none;
         color: #333333;
         background-color: #FFFFFF;
    #leftcolumn a:active {
         text-decoration: underline;
         color: #66CC99;

  • HT4436 Can I have two apple IDs with the same iCloud?

    Is it possible to sync data from multiple apple IDs to the same cloud account?

    So, how do we as a family have more than one device ( 3 iphones, 1 ipad, 1 imac) and each person be able to sync their own contacts, etc..?  My son just backed his up and it confused my iphone - ie, my husband's name now is under 'Dad' and I have all his college friends...  I am so confused.....

  • Can you have two apple IDs on an ipad to join two clouds?

    My son has his own apple ID setup up on his iPad3 with iCloud. Can he login to my iCloud to share my data from my MBP using my apple ID without deleting his own apple ID and iCloud setup? Under iCloud, the only option is "delete" account and we don't want to lose his settings or iCloud files.

    for iCloud synchronization you can only connect to one account at any one time.
    That's not true. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4020
    You can have a secondary iCloud account setup on iOS5 devices for Mail, Notes, Contacts, Calendars, and Reminders.
    iCloud really isn't intended for sharing data among users
    It is if you want to share Calendars and Reminders. See: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a8694

    They have different passwords.
    I use them on my IPAD.

    You can't. There is no way to merge Apple IDs. The purchases made with these separate IDs will forever be tied to those IDs. Sorry.

  • HT204053 I have two Apple ids and want to consolidate everything onto one.  How do I do it?

    I have two Apple ids and my syncing from iMac to MacBook and iPod Touch is messed up.  I want to consolidate all of my contacts and calanders (at least!) under one of my ids, and also use that one for the App Store.  What can I do?

    Purchases are forever tied to the ID used to buy the items, so you don't want to change the iTunes Store account to a different ID.
    You cannot "consolidate" or merge two IDs.
    For your use of icloud, just decide which ID (or account) you want to use.  The following tells you how to move data from one icloud account to another:
    When connected to the account you want to GET data from, Go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. 
    When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone. 
    After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to this new account.
    Note that this only affects the "Apple data" like contacts, calendars, reminders, etc.  Many third party apps also use iCloud to store data files there.  These files may be lost in the process, unless the apps also keep the data locally on the device.
    NOTE:  Photos in the photo stream (if you use it) will not transfer to the new account.  It is advised that you save the photos to a computer before performing the account switch. 

  • I have two Apple ids but one was a typo, how do I get rid of it?

    i have two Apple IDS. One was a typo and I cannot get rid of the email. The right email is there, but when I go to update the wrong email shows up, and I do not know the password to it. How do i get rid of it?

    What did you do with the Apple IDs? Did you download content with the bad ID? Apple does not provide a way to merge IDs, so if you did things with the bad ID, the only thing you can do is delete that content and download it with the correct one.

  • I have two Apple IDs and when I got an Iphone 6, only the apps from one Apple ID are on the phone. How do I get my other apps on there?

    I (stupidly) have two Apple IDs and when I got an Iphone 6, only the apps from one Apple ID are on the phone. How do I get my other apps (from my old Iphone 4) on my new Iphone? Thanks

    You can use the same appleid that you purchased the apps with on the phone for the App store. Settings> iTunes & App Store and continue to use the other id for everything else allowing you to have access to your previously purchased apps. You can then either sync or download the apps without paying for them again.
    It can be quite handy having two appleids - it can be quite useful if you can manage them correctly. One id for the store and one for imessage is good for privacy if you have the same id in use on another device.

  • I think I have two Apple IDs but must have typed in the wrong birthdate when I created my main one, because I can't recover it, but need to.

    I have read all the Apple ID support notes, but cannot find how to recover my account in my case.  I mistakenly thought I should change my AppleID to my new email, and when I tried to do that, I lost the thread.  I recieved a verification email sent to my new email (so it must have added ok) but when I go to change my password, I never get that confirmation email.  So when I try to access the account by answering security questions, I must have typed in the wrong birthdate way back when, and I can't get past that screen.  What now?  I seem to be able to access an AppleID that does not include any of the games I've purchased over the years, so it must be a newer one I inadertently set up.  Thus, I haven't been able to access my main working account for awhile now, and I really want to buy some things and have them on my iPad & new iPhone.  How do I get access to my old account with all my past purchases in it?

    I too added 2nd apple ID when I tried to get Free app from apple store just to get to NONE on the credit card needed. It said it sent confirmation email to my new apple ID email that I have to confirm. Problem is I can not get to the new apple ID email account.  On my ipad it logs into my original email account and I see no where to log into another email account.  If I go to my laptop, the new apple ID I created does not let me log into email where apple said it was sent to.  It did not send to back up email account either.
    Can I log into 2 email accounts on my ipad where it says mail at bottom?
    Can I have 2 apple ids?
    If I created a 2nd apple id to get to NONE on credit card needed, can't I log into it also on another laptop in gmail?
    (won't let me)
    If I used my original apple id I created when I got my new ipad, it will not let me get free app without credit card, there is no where it says NONE needed. I am too new to apple to start with credit cards etc until I get use to it.
