HT204053 I have two Apple ID's and one I have used to purchase all my apps but now I want to use my other one. But I can not purchase my old apps with my other one. How can I use my other one to purchase apps?

I can't remember why but I made two Apple ID's, one with a Gmail address and another with a Yahoo address. I have always used my Yahoo address Apple ID to purchase my apps but I have recently deactivated my Yahoo address. So now I want to start using my Gmail address Apple ID but I can't purchase any apps or even my old apps on my iPhone. How can I use and re-install apps through my Gmail address Apple ID on my iPhone? And is there a way to deactivate my Yahoo address Apple ID that I do not want to use anymore?

Apple does not transfer content bought with one Apple ID to another Apple ID. Apple will not merge two Apple IDs.
If most of your content was bought with the Yahoo! Apple ID but you now want the Gmail address for your Apple ID, the trick will be to change the address used for the Yahoo ID with the Gmail address. However, to do that you must first free the Gmail address from that other Apple ID. Use the instructions from Apple to substitute another address that is not used as an Apple ID for your Gmail address in the Apple ID with the Gmail address. Then, when the Gmail address is no longer used in an Apple ID, you can use the same instructions to substitute the Gmail address for the Yahoo address in the Apple ID with the Yahoo address.

Adobe XI Acrobat issues, thought is best to uninstall then reinstall, Can not seem to do this with the cloud. How can I reinstall?

I have a full subscription for creative cloud, Could not get XI to install, thought it was a conflict with 9 that was on my machine. Un-installed them both on accident. Now the Cloud says I have it, but in truth I do not. How can i re-install it. Use it a lot in the proofing stages of projects.

Hi DebFAlden21 ,
Thank you for posting on the Adobe Forums, you can download Acrobat from the URL mentioned below.
You can install the trial and once you sign in, it would be a licensed version.

All content and data is forever associated with the Apple ID you used to download it. You should have reset the password for the original I'd.

It is not possible to merge AppleID accounts...once established they stay independent.

HT204053 I have two apple ID's and it's causing problems in my contacts. It repeats the same address and sometimes displays email address only but not the full contact details? How do I get my contact list the same in all my devices (iMac, iPhone & iPad (

I have two Apple ID's and it's casing problems on my contact list as it repeats the address in somecases and in others it only displays email address for a contact. I want to have the same contact list and details on all my devices (iMac, iPhone 4S & iPad Mini)? Is it possible?

By using 1 of the 2 ID's instead of both, choose one, move everything in the other one to the one you chose and stop using it.

HT1349 I have two Apple itunes accounts and I want to merge them in to one.

I have two Apple itunes accounts and I want to merge them in to one. How do I do this.

You cannot merge Apple ID's. Copied from Apple's FAQ about Apple ID's.
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.
If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.

If I buy more iCloud space and back up my phones to that will I still be able to get everything from my iTunes on my phones that way?
Backing up your phone isn't really relevant. You can download items you've already purchased (from the iTunes Store on your Mac) to your phone. If you have items you didn't purchase, e.g. ripped CDs, you would have to subscribe to 'iTunes Match' ($24.99 p.a.) to be able to do the same thing with them.

I have a MacBook Pro and someone has inserted a mini disc in the disc drive and I can not eject it or even get it to read, How can I remove it?

Sounds like to me that you have a bootcamp partition with Windows and have the default Windows to boot first.
I think there is a Windows Control Panel or other setting while your in Windows to set the OS X as the first boot option.
Also in OS X there is a option under the System Preferences to set OS X as the first boot option.

I can not see photos neither events preview on Iphoto ! How can i fixe that ? (Machine : MacBook Pro)

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
