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.

This is not possible... Anything Obtained with a Particular ID is tied to that ID...

How can I transfer my purchases from one Apple ID to another?

I would like to consolidate all my wife's and my purchases into one existing Apple ID on our computer so we can share apps, music, books, etc.
I spoke with your Support Team who said this was possible if completing a particular form and requesting this formally with specific accounts and list of desired transfered purchases.
Do anyone know where this form is and has anyone been successful in doing it?

How do I transfer music purchases from one apple id to another

I purchased music from Itunes years ago with an old apple id and old email address. I am trying to play that music in my Itunes on my Dell Win7 laptop that uses a new apple id, and though the computer is authorized, it is authorized under the new apple id. When I try to play the music, a box with the old apple id comes up, asking for a password. I click 'Forgot' and am taken to a new screen that asks for my date of birth. I enter it, and I get a big red message that this does not match there records.
I know the old apple id, but not the password, and the email address that was used for that apple id is no longer a valid email address for me. The FAQ indicate that I should be able to authorize the music for multiple apple id's, but it does not say 'how'.
I tried changing the apple id and password to the new one when I tried to play the music, and nothing happened. I can play the music that I added to itunes from cd's but not the purchased music.
I don't think this matters, but just in case it does: I have a new iphone 6 that is authorized for my new apple id, but my issue right now is authorizing music on my laptop. I'll tackle syncing the iphone with itunes on my laptop next.

You can’t. Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

HT1473 How do I transfer my purchases from one account to another?

I had an ipod that broke and had to get a new one. I have a new account and want to transfer my purchases from my old account to my new one. How do I do that? The old Ipod I had that broke is blank.

How can I transfer apps purchased from one AppleId to another due to breach of account?

Due to a recent security breach not if my doing a user stole my apple id and needed to change appleid account. Now as a result i've lost all purchased apps from the itune store. I would like to transfer apps from one apple id to another without incurring additional costs. With sufficient information in direct contact with the store I should be able to transferable within the software or at very least with the itune store direct. Perhaps this is a way of charging additional costs for same programs?
Not a happy camper because of the theft in id but now to add insult to injury i'll have to repurchase the apps to properly sync with my devices.
Any help would be appreciated

You can't transfer iTunes content from one account to another. If someone had obtained access to your account credentials and you've had the account locked that should not affect the current authorizations on your computer, though it will prevent you from updating apps until you have resolved the issue. Rather than creating a new AppleID what you should do is regain control of your original Apple ID and have it reenabled with a new password, get, if possible, Apple to deauthorize all computers for your account (assuming you don't have 5 so can't do it yourself) then authorize your computers.

Is it possible for me to transfer my purchases from one Apple ID to another?

Hello. I currently have two Apple ID accounts. I want to keep my iCloud account and just use that one as my Apple ID. I want to delete one that I have linked to a diffrent email address. Before I do this, I would like to know if I could transfer my purchases on the other ID to my iCloud Apple ID. Or is this not possible?

No.

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.
If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.

How can I transfer iPhoto files from one admin user to another on the same Mac?

i created a new admin user on my computer, so now my husband has one and so do i. how can i transfer our iphoto files from his admin user to mine as a shared file? i was able to do this with itunes easily but i am not able to do it with iphoto.

You want to share the Library?
For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
What you mean by 'share'.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

How do i transfer migrated files from one user account to another

Mac novice so please be kind!!!!

Was this transfer from a Windows PC to your new Mac?
It is that aspect of Migration Assistant that I find less than useful. Even from one Mac to another, creating a new (old) account is like sorting through old boxes deciding what to put where. This is why I say MA is really only useful at the very outset where the account it creates is the one you will be using.
Anyway you have a whole lot of content in a different account that you want to move into your main account.
Not the only way, but a good way is to drag the folders of files and photos into your desired main user account, putting them in to the Drop Box ;
Macintosh HD / Users / collies? / Public / Drop Box
Then log into your main account and collect them from the same location.
This method is a bit clunky but it will update the ownership permissions of the moved files to the extant account.
Set up your email in your new account from scratch.
For general information, the following link has a great deal for the novice.

How do I transfer "date added" from one iTunes library to another?

I recently transfered my iTunes library from one Mac to another w/ no problem, however all of the dates in the date added column show the date of the library transfer and not the original date the music was imported into iTunes. Is there any way to retrieve or preserve the original dates? I know, not a "real' problem, but a concern for me nonetheless.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
