please help.  What happens if I delete my apple ID so I can communicate to and Iphone from a Samsung and what happens to everything in my itunes account?
Thank you

As long as you update your existing account with the new email address then you shouldn't lose anything, it should remain linked to the account. You can update the primary email address on your account via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and viewing your account, and via http://appleid.apple.com
After updating it you may need to tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and log out and then log back in for it to be 'refreshed' on it

  • Changing my Apple ID - what happens to my iTunes purchases

    I am getting rid of an old email account that is by default became my Apple ID (and username for the iTunes/App store).
    Will my purchases from the App store and iTunes get wiped out from my devices?

  • HT1719 I have music on my Shuffle and want to transfer it onto iTunes but when I go to Sync it, it warns me that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what's on my iTunes. I have a new mac-mini and my old computer was an HP.

    Can anyone tell me how to tranfer the music that is on my Shuffle to iTunes? When I go to Sync it, it gives me a warning that all the music on my Shuffle will be deleted and replaced with what is on my iTunes. I recently changed computers from an HP to a Mac-Mini and did not transfer/sync the itunes prior to getting rid of my itunes. So the music I had on itunes does not appear in my library. Help please!

    See this excellent user tip from another forum member turingtest2 outlining the different methods and software available to help you copy content from your iPod back to your new Mac and into iTunes.

  • I bought a HD and the Itunes Stores say that the movie (Pretty Women) has Itunes Extras. Why I can not find it? It is a mistake from Apple? What happen if I buy the movie because the Extras and now I can not watch it? I have an Ipad last generation.

    What version of iOS do you have on your iPad (Settings > General > About > Version), and is it connected to wifi ?
    From Buy and play movies with iTunes Extras - Apple Support :
    Here’s what you need to stream the new iTunes Extras:
    Mac using OS X Mavericks v10.9.3 or later and iTunes 11.3 or later
    PC using iTunes 11.3 or later
    Apple TV (2nd and 3rd generation or later) using Apple TV software 6.2 or later
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 8 or later (You need to connect to Wi-Fi. Extras won't appear if you're connected to a cellular network.)
    An active Internet connection
    You can use the steps below on your Apple TV, Mac, PC, or iOS device for any purchased, HD movie that features Extras:
    On your Apple TV, select Movies, then select your movie to see the Extras menu. Extras aren't available from the Computer tile on Apple TV (Home Sharing).
    On your Mac or PC, open iTunes and go to the Movies section in your iTunes library. Double-click your movie. If there's no Internet connection, the Extras menu will be skipped. The movie will immediately play if you already downloaded it.
    On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, tap the Videos app, then tap your movie. If you're connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi, the Extras menu will appear.

  • HT1206 what happened to my iTunes library, it disappeared except for the purchased songs?

    What happened to my itunes library it disappeared except  for the purchased songs?

    By being gone do you mean the library is not in your Pictures folder or when you open the library you don't see any photos or thumbnails?  If it's the latter apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • HT204053 I have used my yahoo account as my apple Id. What happens to the iCloud account? is setup. Will information store in the cloud without an iCloud address

    What happens to all the information that is being stored in the cloud?

    Hi rjt,
    Sounds like you did not delete the iCloud account on your device before you changed your ID. You will need to do the following:
    1.     Sign onto Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the old ID (this is temporary - do not verify it, do not change the password): Apple - My Apple ID
    2.     Go to Settings>iCloud and scroll to the bottom to delete the account. Use your current password when asked, follow the prompts to complete the deletion
    3.     Go back into Manage your Apple ID and change your Apple ID back to the new ID (you may need to verify it again)
    4.     Go back to Settings>iCloud and sign onto iCloud with the new ID
    Cheers,
    GB

  • I can't remember my apple id and apple can't find me if I create a new apple id what happens?

    My daughter can't remember her Apple ID and for some reason Apple can't find her ID. It's suggesting she create a new Apple ID if she does that what happens? She's worried she will lose the items she has purchased. Oh and somehow her IPOD touch 4th gen got linked onto her sisters account so it doesn't show the username unfortunately when you try to purchase something. I can't find where I wrote all this down either

    Is there a way to find my Apple ID Name if I can't remember it?
    Yes. Visit My Apple ID and click Find your Apple ID. See Finding your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
    How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
    If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. SeeChanging your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.
    If y can't find the old ID/password then you are limited to the things yo can do with items purchased with the account. Like not being able to update apps and transfer purchases.

  • Changing Apple ID - what happens to apps?

    We want to change our Apple ID on one of our devices - my boss is passing one of his iPads to his kids - to ensure that the apps are not synced between the bosses main device and the children's device.
    What happens to the apps currently on the device? He bought some apps specifically for the kids using the shared ID, and he's wondering if he'll have to make another purchase.

    Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to purchase them. If you change Apple ID's, you will have to purchase them again with the new ID.
    The apps will remain on the iPad and you can continue to use them, but if you want to update them, you will have to use the old ID for that.
    I don't know of that answers your question, because I don't get the correlation between what "we are changing an Apple ID on one of our devices" and "the boss is giving one of the iPads to his kids". I must be missing something in your explanation.

  • If I change Apple ID what happens

    My wife and I both have iPhones; hers is a 4 and mine is a 4s and we both have our own Apple IDs. If we change her ID to match mine

    2. Will her screens automatically show just her cuurent aps or will they be cluttered (her words) with my dozens of apps?

    1. will be lost
    2.will be your apps
    3. you will never be able to imessage or facetime eachother and she will get your imessages

  • What happens to the apps' data, if they were restored to a new device, but apps never get installed?

    This is a super easy scanario. 
    Say in my old phone I have totally 50 apps, 30 purchased under Appel ID (A), and another 20 purchased under a different Apple ID, (B).
    The old device is iOS5 and I turned on iCloud backup and back up everything (data of all apps).
    I get a new device, restore from iCloud, wait until everything (photo, messages, settings, most importantly, data of all 50 apps) are restoed to the new phone.
    The first thing happen after the first reboot, and it will prompt me to log on my Apple ID, to install apps.
    What if, at this moment I decied to only sign on with Apple ID (A), and just don't want to use all 20 apps that I purchased under Apple ID (B) anymore?
    Is the data of those 20 apps become leftover /  orphane on my new phone, and just no way to clean them up?  Please notice again, that I did not say "install app and then delete", I know that will clean up the data as well. I mean when data is copied over but app never get installed.

    Game settings and other data is part of the backup:
    iTunes: About iOS backups
    A manual backup before you sync for the first time will save your content to the new PC.
