HT1918 My iPhone and my iPod have different account email addresses, I would like to sync them. When I try to change (using edit) it reminds me that I already have an account with that name. I don't need the reminder, I need to change the email address
I used different email addresses when I signed up for my iPod and my iPhone. I would like to use only ONE email address for both devices. When I try to edit, it tells me there is already a user with that address (hint: I know that!). Does anyone know how to sync two email accounts into one? Thanks,
When I go into my account settings and try to change my old hotmail address to my current Yahoo! address, it tells me "That email address is already used as an Apple ID." Yeah, I know that. I set up the account that I'd really, really, like to have together, but it won't let me go further. End of activity! It is trusting that my email account and password are correct b/c it will let me make purchases, etc., so it's not like it is preventing fraud or anything. Summary: iPod = Yahoo!, iPhone = hotmail, would like to have both reflect my Yahoo! address.

When I got my Ipod Touch 3 years ago, my mum set up an Apple ID in her name & email address. I have since got an Ipad & set up my own Apple ID. How can I update my Ipod to my Apple ID? I would like to sync the Ipad and Ipod, but cant get past this ID problem?
Hi AnnieAnneok,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The articles below may be able to help you with this.
Click on the links to see more details and screenshots.
First, I would suggest you backup your iPod touch and transfer purchases to your computer:
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Confirm your Apple ID is set up and updated with the correct information:
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622
Then, in Settings on your iPod touch, sign out of your iCloud Account and your iTunes Store account and sign back in with the correct Apple ID.

.Apple sent me an email saying it was available but when I try to donwload it I get a message saying I already did. I checked the store menu and it indicated that there is nothing available to download. I don't have the songs or the album showing in Itunes anywhere. Not sure what to do.
Hi OverratedBacon,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. I would first try downloading the songs from your past purchases by following the appropriate steps here:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
If you're still unable to receive your preorder, you may want to report this to the iTunes Store:

I do I transfer songs for my purchased songs from iTunes into my iPad. I no longer have a laptop but have a iPad I I see my purchased songs in the IPad but do not know how to transfer them to the iPod. Please help.
If you have an iPod Touch running iOS 4.3.3 or later, you can download the songs in the purchased tab of iTunes on the iPod.

I can email but IPhoto does not recognize my server to enable me to send email photos. Any advice? N
I've been having this problem too, but here's the catch: originally it was only with my dad, and only sometimes. Now it's dad and husband, every time! Pix go through, via imessage, to everyone else, and they go through to dad/husband if I "send as text" after it fails.
And the other annoying thing- the blue bar will run all the way, and it will say "delivered". So I close out of imessage. When I reopen it again, the "delivered" has changed to "not delivered" with the red exclamation point. I just googled "imessage not sending photos" and founds TONS of people with the same problem, but no solutions. (I have rebooted phone, reset network settings, with no luck. I even had to backup/delete/restore my whole phone the other day for a different reason, and hoped that would fix it, but now it won't send to my dad OR my husband (who is on not just the same carrier, but the same family plan as me) -
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 ?

I NOW HAVE 2 PALMONE TUNGSTEN /E2'S I WANT TO SYNC THEM WITH SAME INFO. PLEASE HOW???
My daughter gave me her palm because she has gone to other stuff. I love my Palm and I would like to sync them both so I could use one especially for Travel purposes while my 'baby' sits safely at home. All suggestions would be woulcome. TNX HP12thman
Hello, and Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Syncing two Palm PDA's to one HotSync account is not something the devices were designed to do.
I/we here who offer our help here in this Forum have heard numerous reports of scrambled devices, and data saved in Palm Desktop caused by performing this task.
There is a tedious way to do this safely though. Whether you feel it is worth the trouble is up to you!
You need to designate one of the devices as the "Master", the other the "Slave". Erase the Slave device via a Hard Reset, then sync it to Palm Desktop. Palm Desktop will recognize the device as blank and will ask you "Create a new account, or use and existing one?" Choose existing, and pick your normal account name.
FROM NOW ON you have to change all the Conduit settings in Palm Desktop to "Desktop overwrites Handheld" whenever you wish to sync to this Slave device!!! If you don't, you will risk scrambling all the data for both devices and Palm Desktop...
In essence, you are creating a simple "Backup Device" that does not get updated while on the road. Any updates have to be done in either Palm Desktop or the Master Device. When doing a HotSync to the Master device, the conduits have to be reset to "Synchronize".
I'm sure you can see the probability of making a mistake can be high.
Many of us perferred using an on-device backup system named "NVBackup". This saved an entire mirror image of the data to an SD card in the device. However, if you are worried about the slave device being lost or stolen, this won't be of much help.
Good luck! I still have two Palm TX PDA's that work like brand new!

I have some old slide photo and would like to put them on a disc. How do I do it?
I have some old slide photos and would like to convert them to a slideshow how do I do it?
Well...you have some choices. You can take the slides to a photo/camera shop and they can transfer them to a DVD. Or...you can purchase a slide veiwer like I did and while viewing slide, take its picture with a steady mounted digital camera. Then you can load them into you computer and make the slide show and then burn them to a DVD.
Kinda complicated but it worked for me. My slide viewer was only $29 and blew the slide up to 8"x8".
There may be a few folks on this forum who will suggest less complicated methods. I hope so.

we have an ipad two iphones and an ipod nano can we sink all of them to one itunes the items have different itune accounts
Did you change the email address or create a new Apple ID?
If the email address associated with the account was merely changed, sign out of the Apple ID on the devices and sign in using the new credentials. -
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 -
i have an iphone and an ipod on my account.
i need to reset my ipod only.
if i do the reset steps, will it also reset my iphone?You will have to do a restore in iTunes. Likely, to bypass the passcode, you will need to place the iPod in Recovery Mode. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

My Airport wireless is working for my two MacBook Pros and my daughter's iPod, but our iPad, Iphone and other iPod all say they need to set up an Airport Base Station but do not have the proper software. I'm not sure what to do to remedy this situation.
This might sound like a silly question, but are you sure the iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch etc.) are still trying to connect to the same network from your own Airport router, as the MacBook Pros are? If you tap Settings on them, is the network name next to where it says Wi-Fi, the right one?
I've got a weird feeling that either in the past couple of days, a neighbour got an Airport device and hasn't set it up yet (causing your iOS devices to try to help), or that perhaps there's an issue with your Airport router and they're noticing it and trying to help out, while for whatever reason, Airport Utility isn't opening itself on the MacBook Pros like it normally should if there's a problem.
If you open Airport Utility on one of the MacBook Pros, does it report any problems with your Airport device, and can you view/edit the settings on it?
