I have 2 Apple ID's with separate e-mails. I want to change my iTunes to the same e-mail as my iPhone. Any suggestions?
I have 2 Apple ID's, one attached to my iTunes account, and one attached to my iPhone. I want to change both to the same e-mail/Apple ID. any ideas on how I can do this without losing any info (contacts, songs, videos, etc.)?
Why would you create a new account?
All purchases will be tied to the account from which they were purchased.
You will have to authorize your computer for all the accounts from which music is purchased.

if I have an iPad 1 with no camera, and I want to change it for an ipad 3 is true that if I give my ipad I get the cheapest ipad 3
Apple does not take trade-ins. In a few countries Apple does work with a company who will give you some return on an existing device; for the US, see:
http://www.apple.com/recycling/gift-card/
Similar programs are available in a few other countries, and some dealers may have their own trade-in programs. But you most probably can get more for your device if you sell it yourself, as Eric suggested.

Sometime, when I send an email with my Mac Book Pro, i receive the message:
Hi. This is the qmail-send program at smtplqs01.aruba.it.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
But if I try to send the same messagge, at the same email address, from the web site of my hosting providere, ther are not problem...
Someone can help me?
Thanks!!!Could be a number of things, among them the fact that the recipient's inbox is full, or his/her ISP email server is a bit slow at hand-shaking with yours, and this of course can vary depending on the fact that the recipient's account is IMAP or POP.
When you send an email from a webmail, the grunt work is done by the SMTP server, and it's up to it to manage the multiple requests, their number, their frequency, their routing, etc... When you send an email from your Mail app, it'll send it once to your SMTP server, who'll process it a certain number of times before giving up, but you'll receive only one failure message.
If the recipient's an Microsoft Exchange account, you must know that those servers sometimes send and receive email in bulk, and at a variable refresh rate, hence the "Sorry, your email couldn't be distributed...". -
I'm have iPhone's & iPads with AT&T. I want to change to Verizon. Can I still use my old iPhone and iPads with the new company?
To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the other ID. When you delete the account it will prompt you about what to do with the iCloud data. If you need to migrate it and merge it with the data in the new account choose Keep on My iDevice; then choose Merge to upload the data and merge it with the new account. If your data is already in the other account and you don't need to migrate it to the other account, choose Delete from My iDevice.

We had one family apple id. I want to keep all devices on the same apple id for itunes but separate for everything else on the cloud. How can I change the other apple ids now? We have 3 iphones and an ipad.
Hi, thank you for this post. I hope you might be able to help me too?
I am relatively new to apple (have an iPad) and having been a PC user for years I was pleasantly surprised with the apple experience and am now trying to work out the best set up for me, my husband and young son as I am buying them both of them apple products this Christmas. New Mac laptop/ ipad for hubby and then an ipod touch for my son oh and a new mac laptop for me. We are also thinking of moving from Blackberries to iPhones. Yes we seem to be hooked! but i am unsure about the home family set up and how to replace my PC network that I run off an 8TB server.
In reading the forums I keep seeing people talk about problems they have with two apple IDs and trying to merge them. I have also heard about a family ID allowing us to share apps legally. I am really nervous of setting us up wrong and then having problems later and hence i am now looking for some advice on how to share as much as we can legally but also make usage practical and not invading each others privacy. thoughts so far:
Music - I think we are happy to share the same music and access using one ID (we currently don't buy much music from apple but have lots of CDs we share).
Photos - It would be nice to share photos - as long as my son or husband cannot accidentally delete photos of mine (which is my biggest concern). I currently load all camera photos onto my 8TB storage box as the network owner and my husband has full access to copy any photo to his laptop but can never delete the original copies by accident.
Apps - If possible i would like us to share these but they are cheap enough these days to separate if really needed. Would be good to share licence for pages etc though
cloud, contacts, facetime, email - this is what is making me consider separate IDs or learning how to have multiple users in one apple ID - I do not want to have to share synced contacts with my husband. I have near 300 contacts now through work etc and he will not want them plus i will not want his or him being able to delete mine by mistake. and then for email and facetime, well I want to give him his privacy so I do not receive his messages etc. especially now that we are considering switching to iPhones
Then last but not least, i don't know the best solution for my son. he is only 7 years old so even though I don't want to pay for things again I don't want him being able to download "just any" app from the purchased icon in Appstore. Also, is there a child friendly setting to prevent him from viewing inappropriate content on the internet?
Appreciate I have asked a lot of questions here but I am looking for any genuine advice out there. Thank you or other potential advisers in advance. -
I have bought itunes songs on an ipad with my daughter apple id. i would like to back them up on the same computer I sync my iphone with using my apple id but they will not transfer. Both iphone and ipad have only been synced on the computer mentioned since they were purchased. Is there any way to get the ipad music transferred to the computer?
And they were definitely purchased from the iTunes store, they show on the account's purchase history (Store > View Account on a computer's iTunes, or you can view the last 90 days purchases via http://reportaproblem.apple.com) ?
You could potentially log into the account on that computer's iTunes (Store > Sign Out to log out of your account, that will then change to a Store > Sign In option) and redownload them by clicking on the id towards the top right of the iTunes screen and Purchased on the popup :
But that will potentially tie that computer to that account for 90 days : Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support
Or do you have a different computer that you could redownload them on and then copy them over to that computer via a flash drive or memory card, and then add them to its iTunes via File > Add To Library ? -
I have an Apple ID with a single e mail address. I want to set multiple addresses in the same ID. Can I? If so how?
Howdy there johnzcarp,
As I understand it you want to have more than 1 email address under your Apple ID. You can have what are called Alternate Email addresses associated with your Apple ID and this article will help you get those setup:
Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
Alternate email address
You can add one or more alternate email addresses for use with Apple services such as Game Center, FaceTime, Find My Friends, iMessage, and OS X notifications.
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
Select “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
Add an alternate address:
Select Add Email Address, then enter your alternate address. Apple will send a verification email to that address. Didn't receive the email?
Follow the instructions in the email to verify the address.
Edit an alternate address:
Select Edit next to the address, then enter the new address. Apple will send a verification email to that address. Didn't receive the email?
Follow the instructions in the email to verify the address.
Delete an alternate address: Select Delete next to the address.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

My husband has an iPad and I just got one for me. We both have the same e-mail address. The message I get when I try to initiate setup is that the Apple ID is already in use. Any ideas on how to complete the setup of the new iPad since we both share the e-mail account?
If you selected open a new Apple ID account, go back a step and enter use existing Apple ID.
You will have to set up a separate iCloud account or your iPads will mirror each other. -
Hello! I have configured my Wireless network to support bonjour protocol. When I support mDNS in the same Vlan I can see the Apple TV with my iPhone, but I cannot see it with my iPad. Someone know if there is any different in the Bonjour protocol between the iPhone and the iPad???
It is like if the iPad changes the process at some point...
Thank you!You don't need to configure anything specific for it to work unless you had some special filtering in place already.
What do you mean specificly by can not "see" it with your iPad? -
I had a purchase on my account that I believe downloaded automatically with my update or a restore thy I had to do with my iPad since my 6.0 version update. I notice I don't have to enter my apple I'd now for doing updates so I don't know if its the same with an app purchse. Can the $6.99 purchse be removed since it was not something authorizes with my pole I'd entrance?
I am not doing it in ITunes, but i did down load the song from ITunes. I loaded the song on to my Nano, but in my menu selections it doesn't show the song or the artist in any search format. However, when i plug in my nano to my PC I see the Nano library on my PC drive listings and that song and artist are there. I can click on the song and it will play in Windows media on my work PC. I did notice that the format for most all the songs in my library on my Nano are MPEG - 4 audio Files.
Thanks for your help, Mel -
I did not know that when I created a e-mail address that I was suppose to use the same one that I created when I first signed up with Apple I phone. I want to change my e-mail address to the one I first had How can I change it? I do not need two e-mail accounts It should have read that when you are setting up an e-mail address use the one that you first signed up with. Not after you go through all the set ups for I cloud it tells you at the end to use your account that you first started with. Can you please help me I am new at this and I still can not set up on my computer with my phone to I cloud so if I had my phone stollen I can find it I also have and I pad to set up yet It is 3 days and I still can not set it up
Thank You and Hoplefully I can change my e-mail address so I can have everything on one accountIf you selected open a new Apple ID account, go back a step and enter use existing Apple ID.

My husband and I share a computer, have the same e-mail address, and have one iTunes account. Can we have different Apple ids on our individual iPhones or do we have to use the same one?
For purchasing from the iTunes and App stores, you will probably want to share the same Apple ID. But for other services such as iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud, you should use separate IDs. For example, if you use the same ID for iMessage you'll start getting each other's text messages. If you use the same ID for FaceTime you may get each other's FaceTime calls. If you set up the same iCloud account with the same ID, and data you sync with the account will be merged and the merged data will appear on all devices (i.e., you'll end up with each other's contacts and calendar events). You would also be sharing the same 5GB of free iCloud storage rather than each having your own 5GB of space.

Hi, can anyone tell me if I can have more than one iTunes account on the same PC. I've just bought my wife an iPad2 and want to create a separate account for her. Can I do that on the same PC as mine? Thanks.
I would advise that you not set up a second Apple ID. It's really not necessary - having two Apple IDs won't affect how iTunes works with your iPads - and will just complicate matters. Each iPad will be treated independently and can be set to sync only the items you want on that particular iPad. If you really want to keep the two iPads separate, set up different iTunes libraries and have only those items you want on the related iPad in that library, rather than a different Apple ID. If you plan not to use a computer and just download directly to the iPads, you can again choose what apps and content each iPad gets.
But answering your specific question, you can have content from up to five iTunes Store accounts on any one computer or iPad. To create a new iTunes Store account, you'll need a different email address, and from there you just create the account the same way you did the first one.
Regards.
