Stop using one. Everything you've previously purchased from it has that Apple ID stored inside the file, which can't be changed.

    i have ipod classic contens i tunes 4. earlier i was using with windows xp but now i would like to install it in windows 7. how can i?

    Thanks to all for reviewing my question.  I am trying to avoid a possible disaster here, having to load about 90 cd's all over again.  If anyone knows, could you tell me what will happen if I download iTunes 9.0, and install it.  Will it copy all of my music into it, or fail to recognize it, or recognize 8.0 and just upgrade rather than replace it?  Thanks again.  Tom

  • Can i merge two apple itunes account into one

    I have two different itunes accts. I would like to merge them into one. So that all my music is located in the same place under one apple Id/itunes account.
    Please help.. by the way some of my music under one id is on a pc and the other is on a mac. Please advise how to make this happen.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can't merge content from two accounts, sorry.

  • Is there away to merge two apple id accounts into one?

    I have an apple ID under a Yahoo email and an apple ID under Gmail. I can't get the purchases on my Yahoo apple ID to be active on my current phone. (Currently these tracks are greyed out.) What is best to do?

    If you sync your iPhone using iTunes, you could go to Store > Authorize This Computer from iTunes' menu on your computer and enter the yahoo Apple ID and password.  Then resync your iPhone.

  • I have two apple id accounts ,when i used to update application it used to prompt a default id and if the application was downloaded using the other id i would cancel and it would prompt the other id but not any more .

    i have two apple id accounts ,when i used to update application it used to prompt a default id (the old one) and if the application was downloaded using the other id i would cancel and it would prompt the other id but not any more .
    it just prompt the old id which im not signed in with im signed in using the new id and when i cancel nothing happens and when i try to update applications separately  i have the same problem .
    im signed in using the new id
    the old one is my wife's so i can't delete it
    the problem happens  when i update all or  each application by its own
    using ios 5.0.1 on a iphone 3gs
    the applications are downloaded using both the new and old id's
    any help will be greatly appreciatedِ

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here and they don't monitor these forums - I've asked the hosts to remove yout account ids from your post.
    In terms of combining accounts it's not currently possible to do so, nor to copy/transfer content from account to another.

  • I have two apple Id accounts how do I merge them into one account

    I have two apple Id accounts how do I merge them into one account

    you can't merge Apple ID's
    From the FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5622
    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.

    Just updated my iphone. Now I can se I have two! iCloud accounts? One of them appears on my phone, and I have forgotten the password. When I try to add the other account, I get the message that this account is already added, but with the name of the first account where there is no available password. I have tried several times to reset the password, bun I don't get the information I need - I have no access to email. What can I do?

    Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
    Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
    All of your help is much appreciated, thanks

  • CAN YOU HAVE TWO I TUNES ACCOUNT ON ONE COMPUTER?

    CAN YOU HAVE TWO I TUNES ACCOUNT ON ONE COMPUTER?

    The problem with making separate accounts is that this is a laptop, so likely not a huge hard drive, and if the three iTunes libraries need to have a lot of the same music (because everyone or two or three like some of the same stuff) you end up with double or triplicate copies of the music on the hard drive eating up drive space. Since they don't use his laptop normally, creating more accounts (with all the associated files and drive space usage each account would eat up) it probably isn't worth it.
    Instead, the best approach is like Chris said, to make playlists for the girls in the main library and then set up the various iPod to either sync everything (if big enough) or sync only specific playlists (if not big enough).
    Alternatively, they can set their iPods to manual syncing and then when Dad is visiting they can hook up their iPods and "shop" the library and drag in whatever they want to add to the iPods and delete what they no longer want.

  • HT5622 Can I use two Apple ID account in one device.  Are there irregularities

    Can I use two Apple ID account in one device. Are there irregularities

    You can use one ID for iTunes/iTunes Match, and another for iCloud, without any problems. You can add a secondary iCloud account in System Preferences (or Settings)>Mail, contacts and Calendars. Its data will appear alongside the main iCloud account though you cannot use PhotoStream with it.

  • Hi, Can anyone tell me if you can have two separate itunes accounts on one laptop?

    Hi, Can anyone tell me if you can have two separate itunes accounts on one laptop? If so can you please let me know how I set this up. I already have my itunes account loaded on and have another on a separate hardrive that I want to be able to use on the same laptop. many thanks.

    Are you meaning 2 different accounts or 2 different libraries?
    Launch iTunes with the 'Option' key held down and follow the dialog as to which library you want to open.

  • HT204053 can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

    can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

    You can have only one iCloud "user configuration" per local user on the Mac. Who the local user belongs to doesn't mind. Since it's a local user it's not related with who actually uses it. So let's say you want to set up Photo streaming using your iCloud user, just configure iCloud (under System Preferences) the same way you did on your phone and you're done.
    But, beware: if you're only interested in synching photos, uncheck everything else when configuring iCloud on the Mac, otherwise you will merge, for example, your husband contacts, calendar and mail with those on your phone.
    If you want to avoid any problems you can easily create another local user on the Mac with your name, under System Preferences, System, Users & Groups. After you create the user, logoff. The Mac will ask if you want to disable autologin (since there's more than one user that can log in now), answer yes and you will be presented with a logon screen. Click on your account name, insert the password and configure iCloud to sync with your phone.
