How do I update old iTunes files to my new Apple ID?

I have several albums I purchased years ago and have since changed the email address for my apple login. For example, it used to be [email protected] and now it [email protected], but some of my older songs are requiring authorization with the old ID. I can't transfer or play them. How do I update the authorization for them?

You updated yrou old AppleID adn did not create a new AppleID?
Log out of iTunes store and log back in. You don't need to change anything in the song. If you did update yrou AppleID (and not create a new account), the old AppleID is linked to the new AppleID.

I have a new IMAC with a Maverick platform (I can update to Yosemite). I did all graphics on a G5 Power PC (very old), in Freehand (very old)... How can I open old Freehand files on this new Mac? Can I still open and work in Freehand on this new Mac?

Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
After this, do an update from the App Store.
Thats all there is to it.
For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

How do I use old data files with a new installation in Oracle 9i

I am in an unenviable position, with an unsupported database.
We are running Oracle 9i on Windows XP. We are upgrading soon to Oracle 11g on a newer platform, but need to get our development environment working first.
We lost a system that was running our development database without having a database export. The C drive was placed into a new system as the D drive.
I have loaded Oracle 9i on the C drive, but I have been unable to determine how to point it to the existing data files on the D drive. My search skills may be the limiting factor here...
We cannot simply load the drive as C, since the hardware is different.
What are the steps to point the new database software at the data files on the D drive? Or, how do I copy the old data files into the new Oracle Home and have them recognized properly?
Thanks for any advice.

Are you stating that you don't know how to use COPY command?
Can you recreate same directory structure on new C drive as exist on old C drive?
Can you then drag & drop copies of the files?

How to move an old iTunes folder into a new user account?

Hi there, so I have a 98Gb iTunes library and it was sitting on an older version of an iMac (2006 OSX 10.6.8 iTunes 11.4). Realised it would be cumbersome to transfer to my newer iMac (2014 - OSX 10.9.5 iTunes 12.1.2.27) so I used the migration assistant to transfer everything across. Only problem is now I have 2 user accounts for myself on the new iMac and all I want to do is consolidate my iTunes library into one, but am struggling to move the iTunes folder directly into the newer user account on the new iMac. I keep getting a "you do not have permission to move this". I've tried both passwords to each account but still it won't move the folder. Any suggestions or directions would be greatly appreciated.

Were you saying that you have two user accounts (one one the old Mac and one on the new Mac) or two Apple IDs with your music?
Read the original post. The user used Migration Assistant to copy files from an old computer to a new one. This creates a new computer account with the old content. The user then had two accounts on the new computer with content the user wished to merge.

How can I recover my iTunes files to my new macbook pro?

DESPERATE:I had over 400 music iTunes purchased music files on my iMac G5 PowerPC which died. No problem, I thought, "I'll just restore from my external hard drive that I have been backing up too periodically" - apparently it's also dead - will not mount at all to my MacBook Pro (it's a Lacie). So I paid $130.00 this week to have a computer repair shop take the hard drive out of the old dead iMac and put it in an enclosure so I could do a data transfer from it to my MacBook Pro.
Wasted money. There is NOTHING showing in my user "Music" or "Photos" folders on the old hard drive...so now what are my options? Is there ANY way to get back the hundreds of $$ I've spent buying music from iTunes for past 6 years?? geez...

Here's your best solution for everything except movies.

Lost CC back-up service. Also, how to move my old iCloud files to a new one user?

I have a new account for a CC subscription (and a new computer). It was made as the original account was placed in another country and Adobe asked for a whole new one.
In the new computer (and the new account) is not available the cloud service of backup files.
But in the old computer, and the old account, the files are there... in the file menu.
I am seeing them only in that computer...
If I sign in the new computer with my old account CC asks to install app.
If I refresh or load the app nothing happens.

How can I import old email files from Simeon into Apple Mail?

I used to use Esys Simeon for PC for mail at work. I recently found my Simeon email files, which I thought I'd lost. If possible, I'd love to import them to Mail, to have as part of my general email archive.
The files come as a set of nested folders. The lowest level of folders each contain a set of separate numbered files each of which contains one email in plain text (complete with all headers). The folders also contain a number of other '.dat' files with info about the folder contents.
I'm on Mail 4.5
Any ideas?

No. But…

How do you know it's plain text? File name extension ".txt"?
Message Handler?) type file system to mbox
Not likely. MH would be text, .dat suggests binary. "Mh" in "mh_cache.dat" may stand for "message handler", but it's not MH.
Try Emailchemy (test it, don't buy it until you know it works). You might have to change file name extensions from .txt to .eml. Or try to find some documentation of Simeon's file formats and directory structure. I doubt it will be easy to find a converter. Given your description, I'd probably use AppleScript.

How do I update my icloud account with my new apple id without losing all my backed up data?

I recently changed my apple id and password and I would like to know how to update my icloud account to reflect the new id. I realize I can delete the old one and set up a new one, but the message that comes up tells me that all my backed up data will be deleted, would this delete the data and photos that are currently on my iPad? Also, would I have to change my icloud email address?

First, there are apple IDs and their associated passwords. You get the ID when creating a new icloud account. You can also create an ID when setting up an iTunes store account. You can have an icloud account and an iTunes account each using the same ID or different IDs.
So the question is, the ID that you changed... what process did you use to change it and to which account was that ID associated with?
But.. to address your problem (you have one "old" ID for icloud that you have been using and now want to use a new ID - hence a new account), you must move your data from one 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.

HT4352 My iTunes library is on my brand new PC. It cannot recognize my wireless network. How can I share the iTunes library with my new Apple TV?

What do I need to do?

Preliminary conditions:
Through settings, you must log the Apple TV in with your iCloud account.
In iTunes, choose Advanced > Turn on Home Sharing from the menu bar.
The Apple TV and your computer must be connect to the same network.
The Apple TV is sold in many different countries. However, iTunes is discriminately serviced. Whereas in the United States, movies and musics are sold in their entirety, there is no such services in Korea ― only app purchases. If your iCloud (or Apple) acount falls into the latter category, and you login to the Apple TV with that account, Apple TV will automatically convert its systems to the similar limitations.
Here's what happens when I login with my U.S. account to the Apple TV.
But when I login with my Korean account, theres only the 'Computers' and 'Settings' menu.
