HT204053 Can I combine 2 Apple IDs/accounts into 1?

How can I combine my Apple ID/iTunes account on my pc to my iPhone and iPad?  I've had an old iTunes account on my pc (300+ songs) and hadn't been using it that was combined with an old iPod Touch.  Since then I've reset and sold my iPod Touch and I want to put that music and those apps on my iPhone and iPad.  How do I do this?  Please help!

Click here and follow the instructions; Apple IDs can't be combined, but you can have content from up to five Apple IDs in a single iTunes library without running into problems syncing devices.

  • Can I combine Apple IDs (accounts)?

    At different times I have created Apple IDs, i.e. new email address, new device etc... is there anyway to combine these into one ID/Account so that I don't have to continuously log out login to make updates?

    I'm sorry, but you can't combine Apple IDs. This isn't allowed. You have to get all the apps with one of these Apple ID to be able to update them without having to switch between Apple IDs

    How can I combine two itunes accounts into one?

    Items purchased from the iTunes Store are permanently associated with the account from which they were originally purchased.  Apple provides no way to change this.
    However, if you wish to put content from two accounts into a single iTunes library, you can easily do so.  Use the command File > Add File (or Folder) to Library.

  • HT201342 Can I combine two iTunes accounts into one?

    I have two iTunes accounts and there for two accounts I purchase music, movies and apps. This happened because my original iTunes account was my primary email at the time. I thought if I updated that information to a new .mac/.me account it would take my purchases with it, but alas, that didn't happen. I just wound up creating a new account and purchased a few things on that before I realized I had to sign out of one account to sing into the other to update. Anyone with any ideas on how to consolidate my accounts and therefor my purchases in to a single one, like the new .iCloud account extension, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    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.

  • HT204053 support states you can't merge apple ids, but it does give you an option to edit. Im sure there's a reason, but why can't I sign in to 1 account and edit the name to match the 2nd account?

    You don't. As far as I know from reading posts here on AD, everyone who has asked for this hasn't gotten it.

  • Can you combine different icloud accounts?

    CAn you combine different icloud accounts?  For some reason, my new iphone 6 keeps on popping up an old email address for icloud.

    When you delete the account from your device, you will be given the opportunity to save Safari data, reminders, calendars and contacts to your device, which you can later merge with the other account once you login.
    You won't be able to save your photo stream photos in the same way, so if you have any photo stream photos that are not already in your camera roll, you should move them there before you delete your account.
    Your iWork documents can be saved to iTunes on your device, but if you have them on a Mac they would be much easier to save to your desktop there. You can move them back after you switch.
    Notes can be shared to messages or mail and copy and pasted back after the switch. Although if you have a Mac, you may find it easier to do there. You could also use a temporary secondary account (see last item) to log into both accounts and copy and paste directly into your other account.
    You can set up Mail forwarding at iCloud.com mail preferences (little gear icon-bottom left) to receive mail from your old address to your new one.
    As an alternative to just switching, you might consider switching and adding your previous account back as a secondary account at settings > mail, contacts, calendars. You would still need to move your photos and iWork documents and save your safari data, but you'd have access to your old mail, contacts, calendars, reminders and notes.

  • How do you combine 2 iTunes accounts into 1 onto a Mac?

    My daughter has an ipod and got a new Mac. She started a new iTunes account on her Mac. How can we combine the 2 accounts?

    If you mean iTunes Store accounts, you can't.
    If you mean iTunes libraries, import the content and playlists from one to the other.
