I have two Apple itunes accounts and I want to merge them in to one.  How do I do this.

You cannot merge Apple ID's. Copied from Apple's FAQ about Apple ID's.
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.

    i have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

    i had one for a long time, then when i got the ipad i didn't realize they would all still work under one so i set up the second one on that
    then when i got the new iphone i put in the info for the first and main one from my mac pro and it would not work at all, and i knew it was right, then it asked me to create a new one or i couldnt finish the setup
    hence why i have 3 now
    hard to believe you cannot combine into one
    oh well, i will just make them all accessible for all 3
    thanks

  • HT1920 I have two apple ID accounts. How do I merge them into one?

    Hi all
    I have realised that I have two AppleID accounts - one set up many years ago with an old email address. The other my current ID I use all the time. How do I go about merging the two into the account I use now?

    thanks, this has become apparent on my search around this system!
    Does anyone know if I can link both accounts into 1 cloud?

  • HT1689 Can i combine my husbands contacts and mine if we have two different itune accounts and emails and passwords?  Can both sets of contacts live on the cloud and be donwloaded to both our phones?

    Hey NON-TECHNO-WIZARD
    You can do one of two things. The first is to just export out the contacts and import them into each other’s account. If something is updated the other person will not be updated with the information. Now another options is using one Apple ID for iCloud Syncing and then you can still use individual Apple ID’s for store purchases. The article below will shed some light on how you can use the Apple ID.

    It is not possible to merge AppleID accounts...once established they stay independent.

  • How do I stop iMessages from showing up on both of my iPhones without having to have two seperate iTunes accounts and still be able to use iMessage between these same two iPhones.

    My wife and I have iPhones.  We share an iTunes account and we want to keep it that way.  My iMessages began showing up on her iPhone and vise versa.  I figured out to go to settings, messages and have only the send/receive checked for our individual phone numbers.  When we do that however, we no longer can send iMessages to each other and it goes over SMS.  I don't want that.  I want to be able to send and receive iMessages with my wife without having to have a seperate iTunes account and without each other seeing each others iMessages to other iMessage users.  How do I do this?

    One of you needs to set up a separate Apple ID for iMessaging purposes only.

  • I have two Apple ID Accounts. How can I combine them so I can simplify updates and purchases?

    I have two Apple ID's (accounts). How can I combine these accounts into one so I can simplify updates and purchases?

    Sorry, but Apple IDs/iTunes Store accounts cannot be merged.

  • HT1918 My name is Paul Augsburger I have had several issues with my account and they are now fixed with one exception,  I have two Apple ID accounts, and I would like to combine them. Please contact me at pra1949 (at) me (dot) com for further information.

    Please contact me at pra1949 (at) me (dot) com for any further contact I don not monitor the suelefriends (at) gmail (dot) com email.
    I have had several iisues with my Apple ID accounts and spent many hours at the APPLE store in Richmond Va. getting them fixed. The technician was wonderful, patient and very knowlegeable, however he was not able to complete the task and said I needed to contact Apple support for the final step. During the process of fixing things I ended up with two APPLE ID accounts. my main accout is suelefriends (at) gmail (dot) com and the second account is "pra1949 (at) me (dot) com" I have most of my apps tied to the main account with only a few to the pra1949 account. I also have $25 worth of credit on the pra1949 account. Because of the two accounts it still makes updating apps very confusing and very cumbersome. I would like to have the two accounts merged so I end up with one account with all the money and APPS tied to it, that way I only need one password to update. I hope this is possible.

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here and they don't monitor these forums - I've asked the hosts to remove yout account ids from your post.
    In terms of combining accounts it's not currently possible to do so, nor to copy/transfer content from account to another.

  • I have two seperate itunes account and want to transfer them both to one of my two macs

    I have a 2006 15" Macbook pro with one itunes account, I have purchased a 13"macbook pro with my new itunes account, and wish to comine them both on one. I am giving the other to my daughter and need to pull my purchased music and my libray off to creat a new one for her. any advice is much appericted, Thanks again.

    Make sure both computers are set up to share their library on the local network.
         iTune>Preferences>Sharing>Share my library on my local network.
    Then, using the computer that you want to have the media on for yourself, go to the other computer's library, it should appear under Shared on the left, select everything you want to import and click "Import".
    When it's done you can delete it all from the other computer, then you can just sign out of iTunes.
    If you didn't do so previously, you'll want to authorize the computer that now has all the media on it with the older iTunes account.

  • HT1751 I have 2 Itunes accounts and would like to merge them into one. How can I do that?

    I have 2 Itunes accounts, one with all my music librairy and a 2nd I created after purchasing my Ipad. I didn't realize then I could have used my Itunes credentials. How can I merged both under the same account without loosing my purchases?

    As Niel stated, you cannot merge them.
    You can keep the purchased items in your iTunes library and use them with no issues.
    Just pick one of the AppleIDs and stick with that one.

  • I have two separate iCloud accounts.  How do I merge them?

    I have two separate iCloud accounts, one at mac.com and one at me.com.  But I only want to have one iCloud account.  How do I merge the two into one keeping all the data in each?

    If you have two accounts with separate iTunes Store purchases, only a senior Apple support tech can help you with that. It took several hours for mine, when a total stranger hijacked my email to use for their own (no, they could not access my account, but I was getting email from their connections. Like, D'Oh!) Going by what you're saying in your message, as long as your email ID has the same name preceding the @, all emails still go to you. I also have all three, but only use the first one.

  • I bought iTunes music on two separate iTunes accounts. How do I merge them into the SAME library?

    I just got a new computer, so I am setting up my iTunes. The problem is, I have purchased music from iTunes on two separate accounts. I remember there was a reason why I created the second account several years ago, but I can't remember what the reason was.
    Anyway, I would like to merge these two accounts into ONE library. I know on the old iTunes I just signed in to one account, it automatically loaded my music into the library, I signed out of that account, signed into the OTHER account, and then it automatically loaded the music from THAT account into the library, so I had both. However, it doesn't seem as if you can do this on the new iTunes.
    Is there any way I can merge the two accounts or am I screwed?

    Where is all of the music now?
    Just copy it all to the same computer.

  • My family has multiple itunes accounts, and would like to merge them into a single cloud account.  How do I do this?

    We are trying to combine music into a shared library so we can eliminate all of the duplicate purchases.  Is this possible?

    That's not exactly correct. It is possible to sign in to one account for media sharing and another account for iCloud. When you initially set up the device, it may automatically sign you into one account for everything, but you can go to preferences and change this.
    Each family member should have their own iCloud account for mail, contacts, calendars, photostream, etc, but you all sign into the same account for iTunes.
    Unfortunately there is no way to consolodate the media you have already purchased.

  • HT1918 Have multiple Apple ID's, however would like to merge them, also on one of them, unable to verify the email address associated with it since it no longer exists

    I have multiple Apple ID"s however one of them I can not verify the email address associated with it since it no longer exists.   So I can no use downloads/purchases that I did under that email/Apple ID.   Help

    It's not currently possible to merge accounts, nor to transfer content from one account to another account. Are you able to access your old accounts via this page and change their email addresses : http://appleid.apple.com ?
