How do I switch my apple Id I use in the iTunes store to the one I have on iCloud?

how do I switch my apple Id I use in the iTunes store to the one I have on iCloud?

You can simply sign out and sign in with the different ID. However, if you have any protected media - movies, or songs purchased before they stopped protecting them - you will not be able to play them, so in that case you are rather stuck.
You can't merge accounts or transfer iTunes purchases from one Apple ID to another: but there is no problem about using two IDs. Use your iCloud ID for iCloud for syncing email, contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and PhotoStream; use your other Apple ID as before for iTunes, iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match.
There's no conflict about doing this, and you won't even notice as Keychain will log you in with the correct ID in each case. It's also better security not to have your iTunes login also your email address, given the number of complaints about hacked iTunes accounts.

  • TS1424 I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly.  How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

    I downloaded a song that I purchased from the ITunes store, but the song does not play properly.  How can I re-download the same song without having to purchase it a second time?

    I could not find an option to "report a problem".
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • Why doesn't a song I uploaded to the iTunes store show the Composer information when purchased?! Why is Apple deleting crucial info!?!

    Why doesn't a song I uploaded to the iTunes store show the Composer information when purchased?! Why is Apple deleting crucial info!?!  The information was embedded using iTunes and uploaded through TuneCore.  But when the song is purchased and downloaded the Composer info has been deleted (and so has the copyright protection info that was in the comments window of the mp3's info in iTunes)???

    Foundsound,
    Since your direct commercial relationship is with TuneCore, not with Apple, you need to address your question to TuneCore.
    Tune Core often places the song at multiple music retailers (iTunes, Amazon, etc.) so you should check if the same thing happened at the others.
    The fact that the Comments field was blanked out doesn't surprise me, but deleting the composer does.
    Pls let us know what you find out.

    You update via the Mac Apple Store, not the iTunes store—that's music and movies.

  • How can I downoload show sI paid fro without going int o the Itunes store? The shows I paid for no longerr show up in the Cloud on my Ituneslists of shows

    Before and when the Cloud started, Itunes still downloaded shows automatically or when I went to "Check for Available Downloads" and then it downloaded. Then I only got an email notice, but at least I was able to download from my Itunes, in the lists of shows, as the new shows were listed in the cloud. NOW, for the past 3 months, I cannot download any shows unless I go into the Itunes store and actually download each show from there. That is fine for one or two shows. but I get 25 a week, and it is a real pain. How do I fix this problem for my shows to download automatically into my Itunes?
    Norman Amsel ([email protected])

    iTunes prefs > Store.
    Tick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases.
    (if it's nto there. log out of iTunes store then log back in).
    Then select TV Shows or Movies or Music.
    To download items not on your computer, click the cloud icon with the down arrow.
    You can also simply play the items and stream them without downloading them.

  • Anyone still up? I just purchased from the itunes store for the first time, and don't know how to get them downloaded to my ipod.

    Sigh.....really late and I want to go to sleep, but I just purchased some Itunes online for the first time, and I don't know how to download them to my ipod. I've never done it before, and it shouldn't be rocket science, but I can't find anything that tells me where to go to download my songs. It said something about check purchases, but I can't even find that screen.  I connected my ipod to the computer, and now it says CONNECTED...EJECT BEFORE DISCONNECTING. My BF set up the acct when he bought my ipod as a gift, and as I bought these songs for a special weekend I have planned I can't ask him how to do it.  HELP!  For some reason the password I always use is not recognized for my account... and since I can't get anyone from itunes without a proper log-in I'm at the mercy of all of you more versed in tech and itunes than I.  Is anyone still up that can help me out?

    It should keep asking for the password, because it's trying to check for purchases... As soon as you login, it will see you have pending downloads and create the downloads section on the left below Purchases under the Store section. Then it will start the music downloads there, as they will be listed one below the other.
    You could just try to check your account balance or view your account and that will trigger a password request too. You can just click on that and say that now iTunes keeps asking for the password and ask him to help you with that. Trick would be to interrupt him so that he carries on with another task after, so he doesn't notice the download. Or you carry on with email or browsing which you were "busy" with when iTunes interrupted you for the password (stupid iTunes)

  • I purchased music on my iphone and the not the itunes store on the computer, so when my phone with my music on the broken phone and not on my new one i was wondering how i can get them put back on?

    Hello my name is Nolan, I purchased songs for my iphone on my iphone itunes app, not the itunes on the computer, the first iphone I had broken and i have an replacement I was just wondering if someone can put my songs that I purchased back on my itunes account?
    Thank you, Nolan Smith II

    You should have transfered them to your computer.
    You buy only one download.
    If you are in the U.S. then you can use the newly released beta version of the cloud to get the music

  • When on the iTunes store, on the 'new' section purchased, I tried downloading something that said "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID." HELP

    HELP!

    It's been months, so you may not care anymore, but you can't download songs from multiple Apple IDs over a 90 days period.  Sorry, it's not allowed for legal reasons.
