I have 2 itunes accounts and i need to cancel one, how do i do this?

Please can someone tell me how i delete an iTunes account? The one i use all the time is registered to my old work address, i tried to change the Apple ID to my current hotmail account however it told me this already exists?! I need to cancel the current hotmail account so i can use that email address for my actual iTunes account that is used.
Thanks

How can I merged both under the same account without loosing my purchases?
As Niel stated, you cannot merge them.
You can keep the purchased items in your iTunes library and use them with no issues.
Just pick one of the AppleIDs and stick with that one.

  • I have 2 itunes accounts and I want to cancel one of them how do i cancel it?

    I have 2 different itunes accounts and I need to cancel one of them.  where can I go to do this, I can't find anywhere on the itunes website to cancel my account

    Stop using it.  Take your credit card info out of it.
    No need to do anything else.
    All purchases made from that account will still be tied to the account so you will have to authorize your computer to that account as well.

    Is it possible that you are using the same password for the old O2 Study and newer O2 Apple Base Station networks?
    If so, Keychain Access is storing the old information about the old network and may be associating it with your AirPort Extreme settings based on the BSSID that William has mentioned.
    If that's the case, open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access and look for a listing with the old network name. Delete this entry. You may need to power down both the computer and the AirPort Extreme and restart them.

  • HT2978 I have 2 different itunes accounts and want to combine them.  How do I do that?

    I have 2 different itunes accounts and want to combine them.  How do I do that without loosing prior purchases on either account?

    Open the Mac App Store and try purchasing Mountain Lion 10.8. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU with at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

    If you are using two iPhones on the same Apple Account by using the same Apple ID you can remove one by following the following:
    Choose Settings > Store and tap Sign out
    The apps and such should remain. If you want to clear all of that you can do the following:
    The Erase all Content and Settings feature under Settings/General/Reset will remove your content and settings.

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select "/var/log/install.log" from the file list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, start over and note the time. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.

    I have 2 accounts and want to delete/remove one.  How do I do this?

    Look at Store > Purchased > Apps for each of the accounts in turn.
    Media isn't really a problem, but as you've no doubt discovered updating apps from multiple accounts is unnecessarily complicated.

  • I have a 4s and i need a new one i was wondering if they can check to see how much the one i have now is worth and then i can just pay the difference like that

    No, Apple does not take trade ins.  Your carrier may have different polices regarding trade ins. Best to contact them about it.
    Alternatively you can use Apple's Recycling Program with one of their partners.  They will give you an Apple Store Gift card with the value they determine the iPhone has. And you can use the Gift card in the purchase of a new iPhone.
    You can go here to see how much your current iPhone 4s is worth in the recycling program.

    One of you will need to migrate to a separate iCloud account, then you can delete the other person's data from each account.
    To migrate to a new account, start by saving an photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll to your camera roll.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing errow), then tap Save to Camera Roll.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted, provide the account password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted, then sign in with a different Apple ID to create the new account and choose Merge to upload your data.
    You can then each to to your iCloud accounts on icloud.com from your computer and delete the other person's data from your account.
