No, you cannot merge accounts and you cannot transfer purchases from one account to another one. Please see also: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622

  • 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.

  • HT204053 I have two Apple ID's, can I merge all purchases into one account?

    I have two Apple ID's and am finding that Apple TV will only recognise one. Can I merge previously purchased content into a single Apple ID to make it accessible to Apple TV from multiple devices?

    The Apple TV will recognise multiple libraries using different iTunes accounts providing they are all using the same homesharing details.

  • HT204053 i have two apple id's and wish to merge them onto one but keep my purchase history?

    Struggling with this one, I have two apple id's. One old one that I use for store purchases asscociated with old email address, along with a considerable purchase history. I also have an id assciated with a [email protected] email that I use for all other apple servcies and personal email. How do I make the xxxxx.me.com email address my single apple apple id but 'transfer' my legacy purchase history to this id? Thanks andy645

    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 I have two Apple ids and want to consolidate everything onto one.  How do I do it?

    I have two Apple ids and my syncing from iMac to MacBook and iPod Touch is messed up.  I want to consolidate all of my contacts and calanders (at least!) under one of my ids, and also use that one for the App Store.  What can I do?

    Purchases are forever tied to the ID used to buy the items, so you don't want to change the iTunes Store account to a different ID.
    You cannot "consolidate" or merge two IDs.
    For your use of icloud, just decide which ID (or account) you want to use.  The following tells you how to move data from one icloud account to another:
    When connected to the account you want to GET data from, Go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. 
    When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone. 
    After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to this new account.
    Note that this only affects the "Apple data" like contacts, calendars, reminders, etc.  Many third party apps also use iCloud to store data files there.  These files may be lost in the process, unless the apps also keep the data locally on the device.
    NOTE:  Photos in the photo stream (if you use it) will not transfer to the new account.  It is advised that you save the photos to a computer before performing the account switch.

  • HT204053 I have two apple ID's.  One is an old one I no longer wish to use, but it is the one associated with my iPhone.  How do I change to my newer apple ID on my iPhone?

    I have two apple ID's.  One is an old one I no longer wish to use, but it is the one associated with my iPhone.  How do I change to my newer apple ID on my iPhone?

    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    If you have used your old ID to purchase content from iTunes or the App store, you may want to continue to use this ID for iTunes only to avoid losing your content.

  • HT204053 I have two Apple ids, how can I get all music I have purchased in one library?

    I have used two Apple IDs to purchase music. I want to consolidate the music to one library. How can I do this?

    Wooookay ..... I need to slow down some here.
    OK. Thanks for this. Yes I was confusing two things.
    Forget the Store.
    In my iTunes Library there are some songs I purchased (with ID2) along with those from ID1. There are a few songs with a "!" in the first column on the left of my songs listing. When I click on those songs I get a message which says "can't play this song as itunes cannot locate the file, then it gives me the option to locate it. Once I take that option I am in finder but cannot find the song. it is not in the location other "playable songs" are.
    somewhere in frogging around i did see a location that looked something like //file/xxxxx/xxxx/user/etc. but I cannot find this location. somehow a few songs from a specific download have been sent to this eroneous location which itunes cannot find. I want to get them moved to where itunes can find and play them.
    I can later deal with ordering music with two different IDs.
    Thanks for helping

  • 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.

  • HT204053 I have two Apple IDs and want to merge them so I use the same Apple ID for iCloud/IO6 and iTunes

    I have 2 Apple IDs and I want to merge them so I only use one. Can I change my Apple ID for iTunes to my iCloud/email ID? 

    You can't merge them but you can change the ID you use for iTunes store and app purchases.  To do this, go to Settings>iTunes & App Stores, tap the ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in using the other ID.

  • HT204053 I have two apple ids (one on itunes and one on icloud) I want them to be the same.  How do I change my icloud id?

    I have somehow got an apple ID for my itunes but a different one for my icloud.  How can I change my icloud ID?

    If you want to move your iCloud account to another existing ID you'll have to delete the existing account, set up a new account with the other ID, then upload your data to the new account.  To do this, begin by going to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on your phone.  After everything is turned off you can scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Then set up the new account with your other ID and turn syncing for calendars, contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload your data to the new account.  Note: this will not migrate your photo stream photos.  You will need to save these prior to deleting the existing account.
