    I have got two Apple ID how do I get rid of one

    At present there is no way to combine 2 Apple IDs and once an Apple ID is created it never goes away.
    All you can do is Not Use the one you no longer want. Just let it fade away. The only problem with that is anything that is now registered to it or that you bought from any of the Apple store with it can not be transferred to some other Apple ID. So you would need to repurchase those items under the Apple ID you want to keep.

  • HT204053 I have two Apple ids, how can I get all music I have purchased in one library?

    I have used two Apple IDs to purchase music. I want to consolidate the music to one library. How can I do this?

    Wooookay ..... I need to slow down some here.
    OK. Thanks for this. Yes I was confusing two things.
    Forget the Store.
    In my iTunes Library there are some songs I purchased (with ID2) along with those from ID1. There are a few songs with a "!" in the first column on the left of my songs listing. When I click on those songs I get a message which says "can't play this song as itunes cannot locate the file, then it gives me the option to locate it. Once I take that option I am in finder but cannot find the song. it is not in the location other "playable songs" are.
    somewhere in frogging around i did see a location that looked something like //file/xxxxx/xxxx/user/etc. but I cannot find this location. somehow a few songs from a specific download have been sent to this eroneous location which itunes cannot find. I want to get them moved to where itunes can find and play them.
    I can later deal with ordering music with two different IDs.
    Thanks for helping

  • After updating to IOS 7.1 my us holidays doubled in my calendar.  How do I get rid of one of them?

    After updating to IOS 7.1 my us holidays doubled in my calendar.  How do I get rid of one of them?

    You probably figured it out by now!  But if someone else is wondering...
    Open the icalendar app up and click on the word Calendar (bottom of page).  A box pops up called 'Show Calendars', scroll to the bottom of the page to 'Other' and uncheck US Holidays.  The next time you sync your ipad from your iMac, it will only copy US holidays from your computer calendar.

  • 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.

  • 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, how do I merge them?

  • I seem have two apple IDs - on for an icloud address and one for everything prior.

    I seem have two apple IDs - one for my new icloud email address and one for ipad/purchases which has been active for 6 months.
    Can I change this to simplify it, or should I follow instructions to ensure everything is matched?

    I am logged into the same things on both my iPhone and my MacBook Pro, except for mail. I use a gmail IMAP account and everything there already works on both machines. The iCloud account on my iPhone uses one Apple ID and the one on the Mac uses the second Apple ID.

  • 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.

  • If you have 2 apple ids, how do you sign out of one and into the other so you can update the app that was purchased in the other account.  thanks

    If you purchased an app in one account and work mostly in another, how do you switch the purchased app account to update it?
    thanks

    You need to sign out and back in only if you're on your Mac and you want to update the iTunes data.  You'll see a notice saying that there are five (or so) updates but when you go to download them, they're not all present.  So you download them, sign out from one ID and sign back in with the other ID.  Then you can download the remaining ones.
    If you're downloading directly to the iPad, everything is transparent.  It does not matter what ID is configured in Settings.  The iPad automatically chooses the correct ID or IDs when updates are available.

  • I just installed lion and now i found i have two itunes, ichat, how do i get rid of the extra app

    lion won't let me drag to trash saying it is required by osx
    thanks in advance for your help

    Try a soft-reset and see if the duplicates still show after the iPad has restarted (a couple of times I've had it happen to me when moving an app whilst it is downloading, and the soft-reset has fixed it) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • I have two Apple IDs and when I got an Iphone 6, only the apps from one Apple ID are on the phone. How do I get my other apps on there?

    I (stupidly) have two Apple IDs and when I got an Iphone 6, only the apps from one Apple ID are on the phone. How do I get my other apps (from my old Iphone 4) on my new Iphone? Thanks

    You can use the same appleid that you purchased the apps with on the phone for the App store. Settings> iTunes & App Store and continue to use the other id for everything else allowing you to have access to your previously purchased apps. You can then either sync or download the apps without paying for them again.
    It can be quite handy having two appleids - it can be quite useful if you can manage them correctly. One id for the store and one for imessage is good for privacy if you have the same id in use on another device.
