How do you transfer purchases from one account to another

I've used itunes since it's conception and have had several Ipods. Unfortunately, I also have two accounts. I'd like to consolodate all my purchases of songs and apps to one account for app update purposes and playing music on one set of authorized computers. Is there a way to do this?

Nope.  He's right. Currently there is no way to consilidate or move purchases from multiple accounts into one.
Sorry.

    Credit card.
    You cannot use your credit to buy credit/gifts form someone.

  • Can you transfer purchases from one account to another?

    My parents created an Apple ID using our HOME E-MAIL and I've been using that one since I first used iTunes. Now, I have MY OWN e-mail address and I want to use that one now. I want to know if there's a way to TRANSFER ALL the purchases I've made with that account to my new one. I really DON'T wanna have to buy them again...and I have ALOT of stuff I bought.

    Stuff that was bought recently is DRM-free, and should work under any account.
    Stuff that was bought when all files were DRM-protected are non-transferrable between accounts.
    If you subscribe to iTunes Match, you should (not 100% positive) be able to delete your DRM-protected files and redownload them from iTunes's matching service. (Ones that are matched, of course.. Uploaded ones will stay DRM'd.) It's only $25 for a year's subscription, and all their files are 256kbps, too. I'd recommend this solution.
    If you bought video files, I'm afraid you're screwed, as there's no way (that I know of) to remove DRM from videos. Either re-download or keep authorizing your computer with both iTunes accounts (the old one and your current one).
    I have a couple music vids and TV show episodes that a buddy of mine gave me about 9 years ago. Every time I get a new computer, I have to have him come over and authorize my account, or I can't play them.
    Hope this helped.

Then after half an hour, then an hour, then 3 hours. My problem is that it's not showing up! It's stuck in recovery mode! There's still like 25% battery. So I have no idea why.

    now i had bought apps with my old account. but when i sync them into my phone i cant update them using my account, i need the old itunes i had. How can i transfer all bought apps onto my new account?

    You can't.
    All 3rd party apps - all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to purchase/download the apps. DRM cannot be transferred from one account to another.
    Why did you get a new iTunes account? Changing your email address alone does not require doing so.

  • HT1329 how do you transfer music from one ipod to another ipod

    How do I move music from one ipod to another ipod?

    The music that is on the one iPod must be stored in an iTunes library first before it can be synced/added to the other one.  You cannot transfer content directly from one iDevice to another.

  • How can you transfer photos from one phone to another

    How can you transfer photos from phone to phone

    If you are trying to get all the photos from an old phone to your new phone, you could sync the old phone which would create a backup containing your Camera Roll. Then connect the new phone and follow the prompts to register and name your new phone. You will then be given the choice of restoring data to your new phone from a backup of the old phone. This will replace any existing data on the new phone with the data from the backup so it's really the best option if the other phone is new.
    Another option would be to connect the phone to your computer and import your photos to iPhoto or the My Pictures folder. Then you could sync the other phone and under the Photos tab in iTunes you could choose the folders/albums of pictures you want on the phone. They will not be in the Camera Roll, but they will be on the phone.
    I hope this helps.

  • How can i transfer credits from one account to another that I own ?

    Due to some personal issues I created multiple apple id accounts. I accidently added itunes credit to the account not associated with an app that I want to make a purchase on. Is there anyway I can transfer those funds to the proper account ?

    Apple has never permitted any form of merging of Apple ID related accounts.  All apps, and purchases in one account are permanently tied to that account and cannot be transfered to another.
    You can try communicating with the store support staff and see if they can do something to help: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/ituens/contact.html

  • How do you transfer music from one iPod to another?

    How do you transfer all of your music from one iPod to another DIRECTLY from that iPod? Not all of the music on my iPod is in my library so I'm not sure how to transfer it, if it's even possible.

    Search for an app that may utilize BlueTooth to do that.

  • How do you transfer PSE from one computer to another when the original purchase was on line without a disc?

    I have PSE10 on a WindowsXP machine that I upgraded from PSE8.  The upgrade was done with a download; no disc.  The only disc I have is the PSE8 version.  I now have a new Windows 8 machine.  How can I get the PSE10 program onto the new Windows 8 machine?  I will also need to transfer the organizer information.  Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

    Hi there,
                  I see that you have informed 2 things:
                  1. Upgraded OS WindowsXP to Windows8
                  2. Do not have installation media Disc for PSE10 as you purchsed as download.
                  1. Please note: PSE10 is not compatible with Windows8, it's not tested on this OS, however you can try working on this, in case if you face any issue it will be extremely hard to get it resolved,
                  so I would still suggest you go with Windows 7 in case if you have it. For Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 System Requirement visit [ System requirements | Adobe Photoshop Elements ]
                  2. Mostly downloads are provided by directly Adobe, so you can directly login to your adobe.com account and download the software from there, you only need to have the installation media of current version software,
                      When you try to activate the PSE10, you need to enter the serial number of PSE10, as it's an upgrade, you will be asked for it's previous qualifying serial number of PSE8.
                      ......................If you need help in finding serial number, please visit [ Find your serial number quickly ]
                    -> In case if it's purchased from a reseller, you may  not get the download now, for that you have have [ Other downloads ]

  • How do you transfer information from one iPhone to another, when you started a new account instead of restore

    I Had to start the iPhone as a new setup as the software on the new phone was not up to date. Now, how can I get this to sync with my old phone Icloud backup.

    Hello Jardinesau,
    If you are having issues transferring your data from your previous iPhone to your new iPhone via an iCloud backup, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following articles helpful:
    If you've already set up your device, you can reset it so that you can go through the iOS Setup Assistant again and restore from your backup. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do this only if you already have a backup.
    Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support
    iCloud: Restore or set up your iOS device from iCloud
    Sincerely,
    - Brenden
