I changed apple ID and lost my purchase

Hi, I changed my apple ID and lost all my purchase and contacts. Now the apple ID page will not let me re-use my old apple ID. I have restarted my iphone and it is still problematic. Thnks

Apps you purchased with one ID cannot be transferred to another.

  • I updated a new credit card to my apple id and lost all purchased applications and music, any ideas why or how to get it back?

    I updated my credit card info with my apple id and now I can't locate any purchased apps or music, any ideas?

    Sounds like you opened a new account using a new Apple ID. This is the only way you would lose purchases because past pirchasea are always tied to the ID that they were purchased under.

    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.

  • I changed my apple id and lost all my music...

    i have changed my apple id and lost all my music other than about 20 songs...i had about 700

    Did you "change your Apple ID" using this process?

    If not, you might mean you created a new Apple ID to start using instead of your old one.  In that case, your old Apple ID owns all the music, and your new one does not.

  • TS3988 iCloud will not accept any passwords after upgrading OS. 2 days of trying every password I have ever used, AND changing Apple ID and iTunes ID, still nothing. Can't backup on iCloud anymore.

    How can I use iCloud again after upgrading OS to Mountain Lion?  2 days of trying every password I have ever used, AND changing Apple ID and iTunes ID, still nothing. Can't backup on iCloud anymore.

    Apple ID's can be used for anything, a single ID can be used for all your accounts (ie iCloud, iTunes, MAS, Apple community etc), ideally this would be the way forward. So far as iTunes goes you need to continue to use the same ID as you have always used or you will lose access to your previous purchases and your iTunes match subscription.
    If you are using a second ID for iCloud, you can continue to do so or use the ID you use for iTunes, but if you choose the later you will need to move all your calendar, contact etc data to the account using the ID you use for iTunes.
    When (if) you change which account you use you would delete the account on an iOS device and log back in with the correct details, on a mac you would sign out in the iCloud system preference pane.

  • Had to buy a new PC as the hard disk of the old one broke and lost all purchases, but still have them on the iPhone. How can I sync them back to the new PC in iTunes?

    You should be able to:
    Backup the device to the new installation
    Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
    Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
    Restore the device from the backup
    This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
    May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
    When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

    Hey Packerz48,
    Sounds like you might have an Apple Store Gift Card instead of an iTunes Gift Card.
    You can use your Apple Store Gift Card at the Apple Online Store or Apple Retail Store. iTunes Gift Card or iTunes gift certificates are for for purchases on the iTunes Store, iBooks, App Store, and Mac App Store.

  • Changed my apple ID and Lost all my purchases

    I recently changed my e-mail in my iTunes account information, which is also my apple ID and I have lost all my purchased music.  How can I get all my purchases back?

    YES!
    I can access the old account by changing password BUT can't see my purchases listed...
    Any suggestions?
    TIA
    Found the missing songs (not obvious- need to hit the 'buy' button in iTunes!), still trying to download as my MBA is new and must be authorised; waiting.......

  • I reset my apple id and lost access to my previously purchased music.

    I reset my apple id password and lost access to my previously purchased music. How do I get those songs back in my cloud?

    What do you mean by "reset?"
    Your iTunes Store purchases are tied to the Apple ID (email address) that they were purchased with. If you log in to iTunes with a different Apple ID then you won't have access to your previous purchases. Is that what is happening?

  • HT5624 I changed my apple ID and lost my contacts

    I changed my Apple ID ... and lost my contacts.
    Any ideas?

    I believe I created a new one.
    They sent me an e-mail with a link, and I created a new one, because I couldn't remember the old one.  If I ever had an old one ... the phone was my son's hand me down. 

  • Changing Apple ID and how does it affect iCloud?

    Hi,
    I had no idea where to put this question since it seems to belong in about 3 different sections, but since it involves my iCloud/Apple/iTunes ID then I suppose this is as good as any place.
    I've read a few answers to this question but they don't quite supply all the info I'm trying to find so here goes:
    I want to change my Apple ID due to the fact that the email address being used is an old, ISP provided, one that I only tend to use these days for mailing list signups etc. Since, when I created my iCloud account when iOS 5 landed, I (stupidly, before reading that most people seem to advise not doing) chose to associate my iCloud ID to my Apple ID I'm finding all iCloud related notifications are coming from/to my Apple ID email address. I don't really want my shared Calendar changes being sent from/to this account as they can get lost in the deluge of cruft. Obviously in an ideal world I would want to change my Apple ID to my iCloud email address so that the notifications would be coming from there, but obviously this isn't possible yet. I live in hope it may be at some point (foolish I know but hope makes me happy). On that topic, I find it ridiculous that all my other 'verified' email addresses in my Apple ID can be used to change my ID to except the Apple provided me.com one due to that "you cannot use a MobileMe address as an Apple ID since it already is an Apple ID" message. I have never been a MobileMe user. Just iCloud. Maybe when MobileMe goes away this restriction might get lifted......unlikely I suppose but again, I can hope.
    First question: could I just delete this iCloud account from my devices (including the Mac) and create a new iCloud account but this time choosing NOT to associate it with my Apple ID? I'd lose my current handy iCloud email address, and have to resync contacts etc but it might be worth it.
    Secondly, I tried changing my Apple ID yesterday to another verified email address but lost all iCloud access, due to the Apple ID association I guess. If I deleted the iCloud account on the devices and signed back in with the new Apple ID would that bring me back to where I am now just with a different tied Apple ID? By that I mean full access to current contacts, bookmarks etc etc., without having to resync from anywhere?
    Thirdly, which ID is it that controls access to iTunes Match? Apple ID or iCloud ID? Since it's part of iTunes in the Cloud it could be either. On my Mac I'm signed into iTunes with my Apple ID obviously. This gives me access to iTunes Match on the Mac. On my iPhone when I changed my Apple ID and signed into the Store in Settings I still had no access to any iCloud services, including iTunes Match. If I had deleted the account and signed in with the new ID would this have re-enabled iTunes Match? What would happen if the iCloud ID wasn't associated with the iTunes/Apple ID?
    Hope most of that made sense. It did in my head.

    Apple ID's can be used for anything, a single ID can be used for all your accounts (ie iCloud, iTunes, MAS, Apple community etc), ideally this would be the way forward. So far as iTunes goes you need to continue to use the same ID as you have always used or you will lose access to your previous purchases and your iTunes match subscription.
    If you are using a second ID for iCloud, you can continue to do so or use the ID you use for iTunes, but if you choose the later you will need to move all your calendar, contact etc data to the account using the ID you use for iTunes.

  • Had to Change Apple ID.  Lost all Messages.

    Had to change Apple ID because I no longer have access to the email address that I had been using for my Apple ID.  Now i have lost all my Messages on my Mac.  Is there anyway to get them back?  If not, is there anyway to save the Messages that are on my iPad before I make the change on my iPad and lose the messages forever?

    HI,
    iMessages are linked ti the ID that was used.
    On the iPad they are Gone.
    If you have a Mac then in Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.2 you can use the same Apple ID
    Then in the Preferences > Messages you can choose to Save History on closing the conversation.
    The Chats/Conversations  are then Saved on the Mac (in ~/Library/Messages/Archive)
