I have many Apple IDs some i dont even remember, the problem is one of them still attach to my iphone.

Hi ,
i have an iphone and yes i bought it! the problem as described above, is with all my Apple IDs, actual emails and devices i own.
after upgrading the iphone to iOS 7 im stucked at the activation lock and im OK with that - i can see my email (i guess) as the one supposed to free my phone.
still when i try to login with my details i receive the "********@gmail.com cannot be used to unlock this phone" - and truely i see other devices under this Apple ID but not the one im trying to unlock.
i deeply understand this security mechanism, the only thing im asking for is an option to send an email to the specific email attached to this phone, because obviuslly i dont remember which email is attached to this device - but what about sending a notification to that email ?
will that be possible ?
thanx
p.s - i really have a problem remember passwords thats why i use credentials vault fot emails etc... my only hope is to receive an email from apple to this Apple ID's email to validate my ID -

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.

Ok, so now I some how have many Apple acounts. How do I get it all into one so I can access all my itunes cards and kindle books ect.

I seem to have many Apple accounts but want them all in one.
How do I do this as my email provider has changed and I can not seem to combine them and use my credi on Itunes and or get books I already paid for

Correct.
Each Apple ID is a separate account. There is no way to combine them. If there were, it would make it very easy to defeat copyright, ownership, etc.

I have two apple IDs. Both belong to me. How can I merged them?

Today apple kepth waitting for 30 mins just to tell me that the US lines are closed for the holliday? ***.
For some stupid reason I have been using two different apple Ids for my Itunes purchases. Now I want to merge them. Do not know how?
Help!
Thanks!!!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Do you by chance know of a number? I tried to call, but the guy said itunes support is only online, and that he could not help me!

I have 2 apple ids. They seemed to be linked. Can I unlink them?

I have 2 apple ids. One I use for iCloud (email@me) and one for purchases at the apple store (email@isp).
My preference would be to merge the 2 accounts, but as I understand it, this is not currently an option.
When I log into iCloud using email@me, once I enter my password and hit enter the login details change to email@isp... I have no idea why this is happening, it seems the accounts are somehow linked. I am not sure how to unlink them, but it makes it very difficult to manage my iCloud calendar preferences etc.
FYI I have a macbok pro running Lion (V10.7.4) and have iPad 2 and iPhone 4 (both with latest IOS installed).
Any suggestions or assistance would be appreciated
Cheers

Apple IDs (accounts) cannot be linked. It sounds to me as though the two email addresses you are referring to are the primary address and the alternate address for the same account. You can check this out my Apple ID.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account

I have 2 apple ids for iTunes...is there anyway I can combine them into one I'd without loosing all my music?

I have an older iPod and new iPhone 5s. I have two separate accounts for each. Can I take my iPod account/Id and make into my iPhone id and transfer my music over?...without loosing my music!?

If you mean Apple IDs, they can't be merged at all.
If you mean iTunes libraries, import the content and playlists from one to the other.
You can have content from multiple Apple IDs in one library.

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

Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5621
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.

HT201335 In my house there are 3 iPads. Can you have multiple Apple IDs set up to work with the Apple TV? Obviously one at a time.

Is it possible to have Apple TV device "remember" all three ID's? If so how does one set that up?

At any time, you can go in the settings in the iTunes Store section to setup a different account. This will only have to do with rental to be charge to a different account and photostream.

Wife & I have different Apple IDs & can't link as Family?

Why can't my wife and I have different Apple IDs, join as "family" and use the same iCloud storage? When Apple showed the iOS 8, the idea of building a family would allow all users, (ours have iPhone each, an iPad each, and one iMac that supports iCloud) to use the same iCloud storage. That is what "family" ment to me. Is there any way to fix this unfriendly family setting to work better, or must I buy more storage?

Family sharing doesn't include sharing the same storage plan, at least not at the present time. Storage cannot be shared between two iCloud accounts/IDs.

I have 2 apple ids on ipad, how do i delete one

I have 2 apple ids on m y ipad how do i delete one?

If you have content from both accounts on the iPad then the only way to remove one of them is to remove all of that account's content from the iPad - content is tied to the account that bought/downloaded it.

Apparently I have 2 apple IDs. The first is my former email address. I want consolidate them using my current email. I can't remember my old password. I can't do a reset bcz. it sends the link to my former email. Security Qs like d.o.b. don't "match." SoS

Apparently I have 2 apple IDs, but not on purpose. The first is my former email address used for my iPod Touch. When I later purchased an iPad2, I thought I updated my Apple ID using my new email and new married name. Apparently I created a second. I want to consolidate them using my current email, etc. But I can't remember my old password. I can't do a password reset bcz. it sends the link to my former/deactivated email. Security Qs like d.o.b. don't "match." So, when I use my iPod & it requires my password to carry out certain functions, I'm stuck. Please help! Thx

No.

I have 2 Apple IDs, 1 associated with all the family devices and the other which has no devices associated with it. Is there a way to split out the devices between the 2 IDs without losing apps(iPhone) and music (ipod classic)?

I have 2 Apple IDs. 1 associated with all the family's devices and the other with no devices associated with it. Is there a way to split out the devices between the 2 IDs without losing Apps (iPhone 4s) or music (iPod classic)?

i'd be inclined to leave things as they are. Managing app updates over more than one account in the same library or device requires you to sign in and out of each account in turn. You cannot transfer content from one account to another.

I'm a school tech coordinator. Many computers and many iPads. How many Apple IDs can I have per device, and how many devices can have the same Apple ID? To make my life easier, I'd like 200 devices to all use the same Apple ID.

I'm a school tech coordinator. I have many computers and many iPads. I apologize if there is a some place that has all the rules governing the use of Apple IDs. I looked, and I even tried to get the answers from multiple Apple rep's. I couldn't find the answers.
How many Apple IDs can I have per device?
I want to use the same computer to sync and backup many iOS devices. The iOS devices would be associated with different Apple IDs.
I may load apps under a school Apple ID and have users load their own apps under thier own ID.
How many devices can have the same Apple ID?
Can I use the same Apple ID on all the computers in a lab?
Can I use the same Apple ID on all iPads for a particular grade level?
Are the rules different for iOS devices and computers?
I know that there are limits on "authorize" and "de-authorize" and how frequently those things can be done.
Recently I heard that for the life of an iOS device, it can only be associated with five Apple IDs. That is not good for a school giving iPads to students in a 1:1
To make my life easier, I'd like 200 devices to all use the same Apple ID.

It would be best to address your questions there, especially since this is a public forum, and over there you could post more private issues with this set-up. Not to mention, getting more official answers.

Over the course of many years I seem through using different computers to have several apple ids and three email addresses, this is causing problems with synchronising, I have an iPod, iPhone and ipad

Hi there
Sorry for hijacking your thread as put by Dahveed. However I have resolved my issue so I thought I'll share it with the rest of you.
I checked for the error 3194 in youtube and I found some good videos that tell you how to resolve the problem. The issue I was facing was the actually (I know because I have resolved it now) the communication between my computer and apple server which can be fixed as following (if you are using windows):
There is file in following directory:
C:\Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
The file normally has no extension and it is in file format. You need to open it and make sure that every line that has apple server id starts with "#". In my case one of the line started directly with the ip address and then gs.apple.com.
Perform your restore/update after that and hopefully it should be resolved (mine did).
Cheers
