How do I delete two old Apple ID's and just use my current Apple ID?

I had an Apple ID with an AOL email, I switched over to yahoo. While making the switch I misspelled the yahoo email address. I could not delete it, so I made another yahoo email address ID. Eventually I lost access to my previous purchases that were associated with the faulty email address even though I was using my current (correct email) to log onto iTunes. I found this out when my Macbook crashed (iPhoto) and I could not access my previous purchases. Eventually I was able to convince Apple Account Security Support that I was the person who set up the account (I am living in Barcelona currently and calling for support cost a lot of euro on a pay as you go sim and holding for 1 hour is a big waste of euro, but I understand that Apple Support is busy BUT, if you (Chris and Tyler) say you will call a customer back if you are disconnected you should follow through, not leave the customer hanging) (A SHOUT OUT TO MERCEDES, SHE FOLLOWED THROUGH!!!) (Chris and Tyler you guys need additional customer training from Mercedes)
Anyway, back on topic. By a stroke of luck, while I was on hold for 30 minutes, I found the crossed out password to my faulty email ID, I was able to view/restore ALL of my previous purchases. So, my problem now is that I still have two unused Apple ID's. I want to delete them and just use the current. I don't want to call Apple again because I cannot waste anymore euro on hold and I do not feel confident that the Account Security representative will call me back, Mercedes is an exception to that. It would be nice to resolve this by email correspondence OR and actual call from Apple Account Security.
On a side note, I have purchased three Apple devices while here in Barcelona. Europe has a mandatory two year warranty, but if you have a US iTunes Account serial numbers written in for warranty information only are recognized by US one year warranty standards. Apple should Should acknowledge this loophole/oversight.
So that's a brief summary as it relates to my question. Sorry for the length of it. I hope I can get some good opinions for a possible resolution for my question/issue.
Thanks

Your account isn't US or Spanish or any country but should be associated with the country in which you are resident.  Your US account  becomes a Spanish account if that is where you now live but it is all the same AppleID.  Before you change country make sure you have downloaded and backed up any purchases from your previous country's store.  You will not be able to re-download them again once you change countries and it won't be easy to change countries to the previous one once you lose your payment method for the former country (as well as a wait period).  As long as you have them on your computer you will be okay.
Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht6119 - "After you change the country of your account, you won't see the items you purchased from the previous country’s store in the Purchased section."
Even if you do not change country you are not supposed to use your account outside the USA. The iTunes Store in a country is intended for use only by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store.  You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itune/us/terms.html#SERVICE
As for the devices, I believe except for computers the warranties only apply in the country/region of purchase.  If you return to the USA with them you would have to return them to Spain for any service (and no, Apple will not ship them back to another country either direction -- you'll have to get a friend to take them in).
Apple Hardware Warranties - http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/ - select device, then model, then country, then view warranty button.  Look for:
"IMPORTANT RESTRICTION
Apple may restrict warranty service to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the Apple Product." - http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/products/iphone-english.html

  • How do i delete or remove the Tips app and the health app that apple added to my phone on the last update 8.0.2?

    How do i remove the Tips app and the Health app that apple added to my iphone on the last update? Update 8.0.2? I didn't want these added to my phone. I have to remove apps every time there is an update. After the phone is updated I reinstall the apps I removed. After 8.0,2 there was not enough room for me to reinstall my apps because they added the Tips app and the health app. How do I remove them? When you hold your figure on the apps they added, X's pop up on all of the apps i've installed, but not on the ones that come on the iPhone and the ones that they added on this last update. Please help.

    They force you to buy health insurance these days and now apple forces you to keep spyware apps on your phone.
    Oh, knock off the fearmongering. None of those apps are spyware. Health stores all of its data on the phone. It will only back it up to your computer if you do an encrypted back up. The only data it collects on its own are steps, stairs and distance traveled. Anything else in it is information you've explicity authorized it to collect from anothr app you've installed. You're not required to put anything in Passbook, Podcasts, iBooks or Newstand.

  • How can i remove my phone number from imessage and just use email address ?

    Hi all
    I've searched all the forums and still can't find an answer for what i need (what i think i need!)
    I have an iphone without a data plan so whenever anybody who is registered with imessage sends me a message i will not
    receive it until i am back on wifi.
    What i want to achieve is to be able to receive sms messages from imessage users when i am not on wifi and then imessages when i am back on wifi.
    My assumption is that if i can unlink my mobile number from iMessage and only have it associated with my email address that this should work, but i cannot seem to remove my phone number from imessage, in the settings > iMessage > send and receive it will allow me to un-tick the associated email addresses but my phone number is greyed out and will not allow me to untick.
    On my home Mac i can go into messages app and deselect the phone number but not on the iphone.
    One solution says to deregister my phone on https://supportprofile.apple.com/ which i have tried (i can't see how that would work anyhow as there is no phone number in that registration)
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
    thanks, Andy

    Regardless if using your cell phone number or your Apple ID email address, iMessage requires an internet connection via an available wi-fi network or via your carrier's cellular network. Without a data plan and no internet access with your carrier's cellular network, an iMessage addressed to your email address can be received only when your iPhone is connected to an available wi-fi network no different when an iMessage is addressed to your cell phone number.
    You cannot deselect or remove your cell phone number below you can be reached by iMessage at with iMessage on an activated iPhone. The iPhone's phone number is activated along with your Apple ID.

  • How can I get out of the upload/download and just use a convert program right on my computer?

    i recently purchased a package which I thought would download a program for directly converting my Word documents to Adobe.  I realized after the purchase that I had to 'upload/download' everything.  This is extremely slow for me becasue of my feed rate.  Can I get a package to actually install on my computer like the old days?

    Reading a question like this makes me feel significantly less guilty about having my iPod loaded to the brim with episodes of classic +Star Trek+.
    mgmcs,
    The iTunes Store is the only officially supported means of downloading TV shows to your device. The iPod doesn't yet support the internet plugin that CBS uses to display TV episodes on its website.

  • How can I delete an old Apple ID account?

    Every time I have to enter my Apple ID, on the Apple site or on iTunes, it is auto-filled with an old, never-used Apple ID email name and password.  I have to use the delete key to XXX-out both and then reenter my current Apple ID.  Any suggestions on how to get rid of the old one?  I don't care if I lose some songs bought under the old one  Worth it..

    Brendan, thanks for your reply.  Unfortunately neither of these helped.  There are no checkboxes ticked for Safari (and I only use Firefox, generally) and I am able to sign in after signing off.  But when I go to sign in here I get the [email protected] filled in as in the attached.  And I have been using [email protected] as my defsult email and also my Apple ID user name since before there was an iCloud.  So what now?

  • HT204053 how can i delete my old icloud account from my iphone

    how can i delete my old icloud account from my iphone

    Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    You can't merge accounts or copy content to a different account, so anything that you bought or downloaded via the old account is tied to that account - so any updates that those apps get you will only be able to download via that account. You can change which account is logged in on the iPad via Settings > Store

  • How do I delete an old Apple ID and still update apps purchased when I was using it?

    How do I delete an old Apple ID and still update apps purchased when I was using it?

    One, you cannot delete an Apple ID, all you can do is stop using it and let it fade away.
    Two, apps are permanently tied to an aPple ID and can never be transferred to another.  You must use that same ID to update an app, or delete the app and repurchase/download under another ID.

    Hello steveod2
    The main thing to do is to sign out all services on your iPhone, like iCloud, iTunes & App Store, iMessage and FaceTIme. Check out the article below for more information.

  • TS1702 How do I delete an old Apple ID?

    When I attempt to update my Apps the password window pops up but my Apple ID displays a discontinued email adresss no longer in use. I've reset, updated and signed off of my Apple ID but nothing changes and the old email address keeps popping up.  How do i delete the old address permanently?

    ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them.  Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password.
    Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.
