HT5621 I have two apple ID's! how I get rid of one?

Some how I end up with two apple ID's and I need to get rid of one. How can I do that?

Contact apple support, let them know you want to cancel your apple ID, they will escelate the call and verify a few things and will cancel it upon your agreement.
(This will make u lose all history of purchases, etc so please think carefully before doing so)

  • I have two apple id's how do I delete the one that I can't remember the password to?

    I have 2 apple id's - when I try to update my apps the old apple id comes up.  Essentially, I changed internet carriers so the old one is  cox.net and the active one is verizon.net. 
    How do I erase the cox.net one?  I cannot for the life of me remember the password.

    Apps/purchases will ALWAYS be tied to the account from which they were purchases and will always need to be updated using that account.

    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.

  • I have two Apple ID.  How do I combine them?

    I have two Apple ID.  How do I combine them?  I beleive that I have songs that I have gotten under each.  I want to combine them into one.

  • I have two apple id's how can i convert them two one

    I have 2 apple id. How can i convert to one?

    Currently there is no path for that.
    Pick the Apple ID or iTunes account that you want to use and stick to it for all purchases as you cannot consolidate purchases from multiple accounts.

  • I have two apple accounts that I cannot get to merge as one.

    I have two apple accounts that I cannot get to merge.  One is a hotmail address and the other a gmail address as primary addresses in the two accounts. I would like to merge them into one account.  I cannot verify the addresses of either accounts because when I do it will say that the address already exists.  Therefore I can't get them to merge.
    Also...
    Me.com and hotmail are under the same account., but when I log into me.com some of the accounts turn into the hotmail account.  I do not use hotmail anymore and use gmail regularly.
    Any insight to these problems would be appreciated.

    If these are both used as Apple IDs, then they cannot be merged. If they are just two email accounts of which you only wish to use one, then you would need to transfer the data you want to save from one to the other. Since the data are just email you would need to look for a way to export it from one email address as a file compatible with what the other can import.

    I have two apple accounts because I had forgotten my information for one and became frustrated and set up a new one with a different email. How can I combine my accounts?

    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

  • 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. 

  • I have two apple ids. How do I get all my itunes to one account?

    I have two apple ID's. Most of my iTunes music was purchased using ID #1 and resides on my MAC. The MAC runs an OS so old that I cannot upgrade to the current version of iTunes. about 1/4 of my music was purchased using ID#2 (the current one) and resides on my windows based machine. Using the Home Sharing feature I can see all of my music on the Windows machine. However, upon upgrading to iPhone 6plus it seems that I only have music purchased via my phone (so about 1/4 of the 1/4 portion that is under ID#2). I have tried backing up to an external HardDrive, I have tried syncing using iTunes. I cannot seem to get all of my music on one account. Ideally, all of my music would be under ID#2, accessible by my MAC, my Windows based machine, and my iPhone 6plus....SOMEONE PLEASE HELP. I've read countless threads on the topic and nothing I try seems to work.

    Sign out of the account you don't want and then Sign In with the account you want to use.

  • I seem have two apple IDs - on for an icloud address and one for everything prior.

    I seem have two apple IDs - one for my new icloud email address and one for ipad/purchases which has been active for 6 months.
    Can I change this to simplify it, or should I follow instructions to ensure everything is matched?

    I am logged into the same things on both my iPhone and my MacBook Pro, except for mail. I use a gmail IMAP account and everything there already works on both machines. The iCloud account on my iPhone uses one Apple ID and the one on the Mac uses the second Apple ID.

  • I have two Apple IDs.  I want to change the one my iPad is associated to to the other Apple ID.  How do I do that?

    I created two Apple IDs out of confusion.  I'd like to delete one of them, but want to make sure my devices are associated with the one I want to keep.
    How do I make sure my devices are associated to the right now?  And...How do I delete the Apple ID I don't want?
    Thx

    You can't delete an Apple ID. Just don't use it. If you downloaded apps using the ID you want to delete, you won't be able to update those apps unless you use that ID.

  • Hi: I think this is a common question - I seem to have two Apple ID's and need to know which one to use when activating a replacement iphone5

    Hi:
    I have 2 Apple ID's.
    The first is the ID I established when I bought my first MacBook Pro several years ago.
    When Mobile Me ended, I migrated to a new Apple ID that is associated with icloud and that ID has its own password.
    On the first iphone 5 I purchased I used the "original ID" and noticed that I'm not receiving any email messages from my mac mail account.  I assume this is because I used the original ID and not the new icloud ID.
    Now that Apple has sent a replacement phone (issue with loose power button) I'd like to know if I'm supposed to use the iCloud ID to get the mail app to function properly....I've read this on the forums.
    Well....thought I'd test out the procedure on the old phone before activating the new phone.....it doesn't seem to work.
    I erased all content and settings, and tried to set up the device as new rather then restore from icloud.....I got an error message saying the password and User ID did not match.  I then reset my icloud password for my .me user ID.....same message came up, i.e., wrong password.
    I'd like to get this figured out as I use three email accounts and would like each of them to "work" on the phone.
    Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer.

    Ok, fair enough.  But since Job's death - Apple's control on leaks has been terrible.  I got the new iPhone, and I like it - but it hasn't made nearly as big as an impression as previous ones.  Because of the vast ammount of leaks.  With the iPad mini leaks, it's 99% sure to come out next week.
    Apple uses many manufacturers and it's massive also websites prefer to report on Apple whether true or false because it brings more hits.
    Amd by "others" I meant other people on iPads - not other devices/manufacturers.  It's possible to do so, I just want to know how.  I honestly don't think we'll ever be in a Post-PC era until all tablets allow us to use USB in the way computers do.
    No, USB is not the future, you missed the memo about cloud and wireless computing?

  • I have two Firefox Icons in my Toolbar. I don't know how to get rid of one.

    When I open my Application Folder, it only shows one Firefox icon. I have tried to drag the second Icon to the trash with no luck. If I try to open the second Firefox while the first is open, I can't.

    There is nothing that you can do to get rid of the balance on your own. Contact iTunes Store Support and seek their assistance. I believe that they can reset your balance for you.

    Delete all of the items you have downloaded with the ID you want to delete. Then sign in to your device with the Apple ID you want to keep.
