HT5621 I have two apple ids showing up on apps and I want to delete one. How?

How do I delete an apple I'd I don't use anymore?

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.

  • I have two Apple IDs. Is there any way to consolidate them into one?

    I have two Apple iTunes accounts and didn't realize it for a while so some of the music I purchased is associated with one account and some music is associated with the other. I was wondering if there is any way to connect the two accounts and consolidate into one so that all my music is connected to one account and I don't have to manage the account separately?
    Thanks and I appreciate any input!

    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 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.

  • I have two Apple ids but one was a typo, how do I get rid of it?

    i have two Apple IDS. One was a typo and I cannot get rid of the email. The right email is there, but when I go to update the wrong email shows up, and I do not know the password to it. How do i get rid of it?

    What did you do with the Apple IDs? Did you download content with the bad ID? Apple does not provide a way to merge IDs, so if you did things with the bad ID, the only thing you can do is delete that content and download it with the correct one.

  • Can you have two Apple IDs on one IPAD? One for school and one for home?

    Can you have two Apple IDs on one IPAD? One for school and one for home?
    If so do you know how to do it?

    It depends on what you want to do.
    You could, for example, have one AppleID for iCloud backup [and therefore message syncing, notes syncing, etc] and a second one for iTunes [music, iBooks, etc].
    But if you are looking for a way to flip everything between different appleIDs, then no.

  • Can you have two apple ids on one mac?

    Can you have two apple ids on one mac? We each have iPhones and want to utilize iCloud.  Is this possible?

    No, in this case the 2 user accounts with its own Apple IDs would be completely seperated.
    If you want to share this things like music and app purchases you will have to to something else.
    1. Create two user accounts on your Mac (user A and user B).
    2. Create two iCloud accounts just for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Photos, etc. (one for user A and one for user B):
    On your Mac (with Mac OS X Lion or Mountan Lion):
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > iCloud > Create an Apple ID (button in left corner)
    On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch (iOS 5 or later):
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > iCloud > Get a free @me.com address and create a new Apple ID
    3. It is not recommended because you shouldn't share your Apple ID account information with other people but you could set up your old Apple ID as an account just for store purchases (Apps, Music, ...) so that everyone of you can manage the purchases in their own library (Access is limited to 10 devices). Therefore you have to setup this "old" ID in Settings of your iOS devices (Settings > iTunes & App Store) and in iTunes on your Mac.

  • I have two apple  Ids, how do I consoliidate into one Id?

    I have two apple ids.  One for the apple store and one for the icloud and newstand. 
    How can i concsolidate the two ids into one ID.  One is associated with my Icloud
    and has payed icould stroage.  The other id is my pre os5 apple store id.
    They have different passwords.
    I use them on my IPAD.

    You can't. There is no way to merge Apple IDs. The purchases made with these separate IDs will forever be tied to those IDs. Sorry.

  • I have Two apple ids: one apple id will not authorize on same computer.

    I just purchased a new imac. I have two apple ids. Stupid, I know.
    I was able to authorize one of the apple ids on my iMac. When I try to authorize the other apple id, I get the message "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."  I keep getting this message day after day.
    Also, when I hook up my new iphone 5S to my computer I also get this message "This computer is no longer authorized for apps that are installed on the iphone. Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes store? If you do not authorize this computer, 22 apps, including "Airport", and their data will be deleted from this iphone."  I get the choices: cancel, Don't Authorize, or Authorize.  So, I click Authorize, I put in my apple ID and password and get the message "We cold not complete your itunes store request. The itunes store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later." This is when I try to sign in with my apple ID that I can not seem to authorize.
    I deauthorized both apple ids from my old imac.
    Any help would be appreciated!

  • Have two apple IDs.  Can I merge them somehow?

    I have two apple IDs.  One from before icloud - ends in sbcglobal.net.  When icloud became available, somehow I created a new apple ID ending in me.com.  Is there some way that I can merge them so that I have only one apple ID to manage?  I have two desktop Macs, an iPad, and an iPhone 5.

    No, Apple does not allow to merge AppleIDs. You can just stop using one of them.

  • 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 - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

    I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

    Thanks - I guess it is like there were two of me!
    I bought the iPhone first and it seemed natural to link it to the (work) e-mail address which was in constant use. The iMac for home use came next and it seemed natural to use my home e-mail address, particularly as I knew by then that I would lose the work address after my imminent retirement. The same logic went for the recent puchase of the MacAir. I am not sure what happened with the iPad (also a recent purchase) - iTunes seemed to puch me towards the same ID as the iPhone.
    It is not a huge problem - just makes my persona look schizoid! Otherwise very happy with everything Apple.

  • Does anyone else have two Apple IDs? I can't get rid of one of them. It's associated with my iCloud account and I can't fix it. The password doesn't work.

    So, apparently I have two Apple IDs associated with my iPhone. One is an old aol address that got hacked and was shut down. Even aol doesn't recognize the email address anymore, and the password doesn't work. It's associated with my iCloud account, so now I can't access that account. My other Apple ID is with everything associated with my iPhone and everything works just fine. But now I can't get to my iCloud stuff. Has this ever happened to anyone else. The guy at the Apple store says he's never heard of it.

    Does the alert refer to "Local Items?"

  • How to Set up Family Plan when you have two Apple IDs?

    I stopped short of setting up Family plan because my wife and I have two Apple IDs each: One for iTunes ad one for iCloud.  This was caused by migrating from long ago Apple "cloud" services.  
    The set up seems to assume you have a single ID for each person and there are no instructions to set it up using hyour current iTunesa and iCloud IDs.
    Has anyone successfully set up Family Plan while they have two sets of Apple IDs? 

    finally I found someone else with my dilemma.
    I have my iTunes/AppStore ID with all my purchases and my iCloud ID with everything else.
    this is a major issue that needs to be addressed.
    thank you.
