  • How can I transfer my old Apple ID purchases into new one?

    Dear All,
    Recently I decided to change my email address for some security reasons. Now I need to change my apple ID but there is a problem:
    I have purchased a lot of things by my ID  ( OSX as well as iTunes) and really don't want to pay for them again.
    Here is the question: How can I transfer all those purchases to the new ID and how can I close ( deactivate) that old Apple ID ?
    Thanks

    You can't. Apple will not merge IDs and Apple will not move content from one ID to another.
    There is no need for a new ID, just change the primary email address in the current ID and change your password if you are concerned about security.

  • HT201269 How can I transfer my old iTunes library to a new computer?

    I just got a MacBook Pro and I'd like to be able to access the iTunes library from my old computer on it. I've tried Home Sharing but it doesn't allow me to transfer my old library to my new computer, it just allows me to listen to the songs from it. I'd like to be able to sync my iPhone with my current computer without the "Erase and Sync" message popping up. I've authorized my new computer to access my iPhone and I don't understand why I'm not allowed to transfer my old library to my new computer.

    Have you tried the Migration Assistant that came with your new MBP?

  • How can I transfer my old account balance to my new Apple ID?

       The new Apple ID was necessary because Itunes checks email addresses, and the address no longer exists, so it would not let me sign in. Now that I have a new Apple ID, it wont recognize my credit balance. Lest anyone tell me to email Apple, I cant: Apple wont recognize my email program, so I cannot contact anyone without their real, actual email address.
    I cannot use my debit card, because all holders of Mastercard debit cards issued by Shazam are barred from ordering from itunes (and Gardener's Supply). Many problems started as I refused to accept "terms of use" here and there due to what I consider to be reprehensible terms-hence the locked email and therefore Apple verification problems.

    You can't. Even if you could contact Apple, they won't do it unless you want to clear the balance instead of moving it between accounts; this is generally only useful when the balance is stopping you from changing countries.

  • How can I see my own phone number on the new iphone 3G

    I recently purchased an iphone 3G and cannot seem to get my own phone number to appear at the top of the contacts page (above the "A" contacts. The apple store people tell me that it should have shown up there but it hasn't. Can anyone help me? thanks,

    Then that's a software or activation bug. Restoring the phone via iTunes might help.
    In the days of the original iPhone launch, there were a few issues like this that could also be resolved by calling your phone service provider (AT&T in the US) and having them reset your account in their system -- followed by power cycling the iPhone.

  • How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot get the music off it.

    How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot access any of the old music. All I can find are what was on my iPhone, but that's not what I want. I need all my old music from my old Mac, which has been wiped clean by IT at my old job. BUT, I did have iCloud at that time and I thought all my music would be accessible through it. I don't understand the Cloud! And I'm thinking spending $24.99 on iTunes Match was a waste of money because I still can't access my old music.

    When you are done with this issue, consider the computer back at the office may still
    have access to your iTunes account, and it should be de-auhorized. You can do that
    remotely, but be sure you carefully do not mess up your other computer iTunes libraries.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • I swapped my iphone from apple store india and my imei of iphone changed and i have lost the box and bill of phone , how can i get my old imei number.

    I swapped my iphone from apple store india and my imei of iphone changed and i have lost the box and bill of phone , how can i get my old imei number.

    Of course it changed. A phone's IMEI number is unique to each phone. The IMEI number for a phone does not transfer to another phone.
    Since your iPhone was exchanged under warranty without having the box and bill for the original purchase, you don't need it now either. The exchange under warranty remains under the warranty for the original purchase.

  • How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

    Hi
    I have bought my iPhone 3G yesterday. I have found out how to transfer music from iTunes however i can't transfer videos. I'm selecting the videos i want to transfer on the videos tab after i chose my iphone from the side menu and pressing apply. iTunes says that its syncing my iphone but it doesnt transfer the videos.
    Lately i have found out a function on the advanced menu for movies as "create iphone or ipod version". When i used that it transfered that video to my iPhone however the sound was completely lost besides that action takes too much time(around 10 mins for a 3 min video and i have a pretty strong computer).
    How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

    One thing I'd recommend is that you make sure the video/audio you're trying to transfer falls within the guidelines listed in the 'Video' section here:
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
    What's most likely happening is that the file is not converted as such so when you try to transfer it, it's wanting to convert it but is unable to for any number of reasons.
    There's software out there that might make this easier for you but I can't recommend anything specifically.

    I figured it out! I copied the VCF files to my Contacts app on my iMac and all my contacts refreshed automatically via the Apple iCloud! Hope this helps some people out there! Good Luck!
