How do I merge Apple ID accounts so i can verify iCloud on iPhone?

I recently go iCloud, but am unable to use it because:
When I signed up in Apple Store year ago I used "imagaria". I then had to create one tied to my email "[email protected]". But now, when I try to verify my Apple account to use iCloud, it says:
"That Apple ID is already in use.If this Apple ID was created by you, simply sign in with your Apple ID and password.If it does not belong to you, try again using a different name."
I have signed out of everything tied to Apple, my Mac iTunes, my iPhone App Store etc.
In the Manage Your Account, it says to "
Make your Apple ID and primary email address one and the same."
However, it will not let me do so to use iCloud.
Am I doomed forever to not be able to use iCloud?

Just create a new id for iCloud and keep imagaria for Itubes and Itunes match.  You can not merge accounts.

    iMatch works by matching or uploading the music in your iTunes account, it doesn't matter where the music came from as long as it now in your account, but if you purchased it with a different account you will need to be logged in
    No.
    As long as you computer is authorized for that iTunes account, the songs will work with iTunes Match. The user does not need to be logged in on that computer.

    To use iCloud, you must first set it up with your Apple ID on a device with iOS 5 or a Mac with OS X Lion.

    Perhaps you might go to your apple account, sign in and delete yourself?
    You'll lose stuff saved to that ID.

    I tried this but it won't allow me to do that....I don't have worries about loosing things as I don't have any other apple products or any use for anything that might be saved

  • How do i merge my user accounts after migration assistant

    Hello,
    How do I merge my user accounts after migration assistant from a time machine back up?

    I wonder how to plan what account and rights to have where?
    I had my old original account on my iMac, and then I "migrated" the data to a user account, in order to have some advantages with that setup. So everything worked approximately ok in this setup.
    And yesterday, I tried migrating to a new Mac, and suddenly I get aware of the fact that the rights on these two earlier accounts were important.
    And especially, after doing the migration to the new machine twice, until I got the Mail working, I am now totaly bewildered what solution to aim for? How to merge the two migrated admin accounts - keeping the original admin account is also important, since my file system har special rights for that one.
    Could anyone give me more ideas about how to proceed? I think I have working Mail on one of the two migrated account (with 100 000 mails or so, it seems so...). The other account is the one I would like to have.
    Also I think I want to use a normal user account, not an admin account for my daily use. And I have to see if things still work if I turn off the admin rights...
    Thankful for any advice!

  • HT204053 I changed my apple id, but my ipad does not allow me to change it for Icloud, so I can't  edit my account so I can access Icloud. I was told at Apple store that I could use both Apple ids, but my old one is no longer recognized. Any suggestions?

    I changed my apple id, but my ipad does not allow me to change it for Icloud, so I can't  edit my account so I can access Icloud. I was told at Apple store that I could use both Apple ids, but my old one is no longer recognized on the appleid website, so my password for my old apple id won't work.
    Any suggestions?

    If you only changed the name of your ID rather than creating a new ID, just go to Settins>iCloud and tap Delete Account then sign back in with the new name.  (Deleting the account from your phone does not delete it from iCloud.  Your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.)
    If you created a new ID, you'll have to go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn all data you are syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your iPhone.  (If you are syncing iWork documents with iCloud, also open your iWork apps and turn off iCloud syncing and choose to keep the documents on your phone.)  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using your other ID, then turn syncing for your data (contacts, etc.) back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to your new account.
    You won't lose any photos in your camera roll or photo library.  If you have any photos in your photo stream that are over 30 days old that are not in your camera roll or saved on your computer, be sure to save these to the camera roll before deleting the account.  To do so, open the photo stream album on your iPhone in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you need to save to select them, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

    Yes - I connected my phone to my computer / Itunes and went into the apps section, but from there I have no idea how to manage the push notifications.  I even tryied going into itunes that is installed on my phone.  I still cannot find anyplace to manage these popups.  I have also gone into settings - notifiations - and tried turning all notifications for these apps all off but that didnt work either.  Any guidance is MUCH appreciated - Im not sure where to go from here.
