HT204053 Can you combine two apple ids so i only have one?

My one apple id has all the itunes on it. Somehow I am on a separate one. Can I combine them?

Yes, you can change the Apple ID to which your phone is tied. Delete your existing iCloud address and provide the new one. Do the same for your email.

  • HT204053 Can you merge two Apple IDs into one?  It was a common issue caused by the iPhone 4 and has been corrected, but transferring purchases in iTunes is a pain with two IDs.

    For a brief time when iPhone 4, iOS 4 came out, many of us ended up with two Apple IDs.  I want to know if anyone can please provide me with simple step-by-step instructions on merging two Apple IDs into one?  It would make transferring purchases on iTunes much easier and reliable.  I realize i desperately need an iOS update, but i had no laptop for over two years!  I'm posting a cry for help on that in another community.  Thank you all.

    No,
    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.

  • Can you combine two Apple IDs?

    I have iPad2, iPhone4, iPhone3S, MacBook Air 2011 and a Macbook Pro 2010...all running on Lion OS and iOS 5.  My Issue is I have two apple accounts, one on gmail and the other on mobile me.  I have lots of music from both and want to combine them so my family can just use one account instead of having them both seperate.  We don't use the gmail email anymore, and would like to combine them both to the mobile me apple ID if possible?  Please help!

  • 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 you merge two apple ids

    I have two Apple id's. Not sure why. but one is for my iPod that was set up a long time ago and what I use for iTunes. The is for my iPhone. I want to use the itunes cloud storage so i can listen to my music on my iPhone but i'm guessing that won't work if you have two id's. Of couse they'd need to match. Can you merge two id's? I would like to simplify anyway and just have one.
    Thanks.

    No.

  • HT204053 Can I use two apple ids with 1 iTunes library ??

    Both myself and my partner have apple products phones iPads Apple TV ... Can we both have separate apple ids and still share the same library and photo stream??

    Yes, you can mingle content from multiple IDs in the same iTunes content library. You just need to authorize the computer to use content from each ID.

  • HT204053 Can you merge multiple Apple IDs?

    I have somehow collected 3 IDs over the years and want to merge them so I don't keep having to log out and resign in every time I need to update my apps on my iPhone and iPad.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!

  • HT204053 how can I merge two Apple-IDs?

    how can I merge two Apple-IDs?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Apple will not merge two Apple IDs, nor will Apple transfer content from one ID to another.

    Hi dip_kinu,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what device you are trying to set up and what is happening when you try to do so. If you are having issues remembering your Apple ID, or feel like you may have set up multiple Apple ID's, you may find the following page helpful:

  • How can I set up my Apple TV if I only have one spot for an HDMI cable.

    how do I hook up my apple tv if I only have one spot for an HDMI cable.

    How many different devices (DVD player, cable box, etc.) do you have besides the Apple TV to connect to your TV? If you aren't going to use any of these others, you won't need a switcher.
    Also, depending on the device & what other kinds of inputs your TV might have, you may be able to hook them up to other inputs besides your only HDMI one. The quality might be lower for them, & you might have to use several cables for sound & video, but that might end up being acceptable if you use your ATV much more often than the others.

  • Combining two Apple IDs into a single account

    I couldn't find what other forum to post this question in. Please direct me to one if there is one. Thanks.
    I've accidentally created two Apple IDs and registered various hardware on each. I want to combine the two accounts into one.
    How can I do that?

    Hello,
    Unfortunately, you cannot do that.
    We just don't have that option here. My recommendation would be to use whichever account you prefer the most.
    If you have points of concern to you on the other account, then use it.
    You can adjust either account to your own preferences. So, the only difference between one and the other will be the user name and registration date that is attached to it (which cannot be changed) and the number of posts and awarded points for questions you have answered.
    I wish I could give you the answer you are wanting. But, unfortunately that just is not an option.
    Edit:
    I just found that someone else has been discussing something similar here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=668526&tstart=0
    You may find that discussion useful as well when considering the limitations and other factors that are affected.
    I hope this helps.
