I need to remove my aol address as my primary ID from iTunes?

Using iCloud, I have an apple I that is an @me.com address. I want to set this address to be where my iTunes and Apple Store receipts get sent, but I cannot find where to change this. I cannot make my @me.com address my main email address because I get an error message saying that this is already being used for an account. If I use my @me.com address to sign into iTunes, it goes straight back to logging in with my @aol.com address.
I'd like to remove the @aol.com address completely from my account as I no longer intend to use this email. How can I do this when there is no option to delete it and I cannot replace it with me @me.com address (which I intend to make me only address henceforth)?
Thanks,
Ben

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It sounds as thoug your me address and your aol address are the same account, check it out at My Apple ID

  • I need to remove an AOL email account that is not attached to my Apple ID.  This is on an iPAD.  It is not showing in Accounts.  However, I cannot delete the mailbox,. Please advise

    I need to remove an AOL email account that is not attached to my Apple ID.
    I am receiving email and I cannot delete the mailbox. Please advise.
    the account is not viewable in settings.

    I am assuming that this mail is coming into the Mail App, not another third party app, correct?
    Is the AOL account showing up as its own mailbox in the mail app? (e.g. I see "All inboxes", "iCloud", and a third mailbox that is my second email address.)
    Every "mailbox" except the "all inboxes" are going to be in the settings under mail, Contacts and calendars.
    If the mail is coming into a mailbox that isnt the AOL mailbox, then it sounds like you have your AOL mail being forwarded to another email adress.

  • I need to know how to delete downloaded videos and movies from iTunes when the instructions on the support page does not work.  I have swiped the selections from left to right on the phone and nothing happens.

    Hello.
    I need help deleting videos, tv shows, and movies downloaded from itunes.  I have followed the instructions to delete from the macbook, I selected the videos I wanted to delete and right clicked to delete.  Nothing happens.  When I double click on the video it still starts playing.  I also followed the instructions to delete the videos from the iphone by swiping from left to right with nothing happening.  I opened the videos on the ipad and there is no edit selection like in the instructions on the support page. Can you please tell me how to permanently remove this content so it doesn't try to copy from each device when I want to back up the Iphone and Ipad to my macbook.  Thank you.

  • I need to adjust the tempo of a commercial song imported from iTunes

    I need to reduce the tempo of a commercial song which I imported to GB from iTunes by ~6%. Can I do this in GB, and if so, how?

    If you need a precise value, I suggest using an audio editor (e.g. Audacity, which is free) to achieve this - you can add numerical values there. If you use GB, you can only adjust the tempo in integer steps, and the percentage value depends on the tempo you start with.
    What you could do in GB is the following:
    • set the song's tempo to 100
    • import your audio file
    • turn the orange region into a purple one and check "follow tempo & pitch"
    • set the song's tempo to 94.

    LONG LIVE ARCH~!!!!! Hek yeah I enjoy, especially since I was a major power user of XP & strictly XP. There was everything I ever needed. The only thing was that, if there was an Open-Source alternative, I would take it. I didn't know much about Linux other than that it ran EXTREMELY well as a server just as FreeBSD does. Once I finally took the time to google Linux, read about ditributions,open source and read blogs and read community comments etc.. I was like" I gotta be apart of this~!!" because XP was the shizz. But now Linux, more specifically, ARCH~!!!!!

  • I don't have a iCloud icon on my devise I need to update to get my music that I purchased from iTunes back

    I don't have a cloud icon on my ipad or iphone

    There is no iCloud icon because iCloud is a service, not an app.  You create an iCloud account by going to Settings>iCloud, signing in with your Apple ID and turning on the data you wish to sync with iCloud.
    However, you don't need an iCloud account to redownload your music from iCloud.  It downloads from the iTunes store, not from a personal iCloud account.  This article explains how to do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519.

  • HT204074 I need to authorize my new computer to play previous purchases from itunes, I have read the support but can not find store menu topic

    I am having a hard time authorizing my new computer for previous purchases on itunes.  The support suggestion to go to store menu and select authorize is not materializing anything even remotely similiar.  At the store I only see advertisement and topics at the bottom.  Can anyone guide me thru this, it really should be easier.

    If the computer's running Mac OS X, move the cursor to the very top of the computer's screen, click on Store, and choose Authorize this Computer.
    If the computer's running Windows, press the Alt and S keys and choose Authorize this Computer, or click here, follow the instructions, click on Store in the menu bar, and choose Authorize this Computer.

  • How to Remove Business Partner Address using DI Server

    Hello,
    I need to remove Business Partner Addresses using DI Server, the example in the SDK only mentions the remove of the entire business partner, but I need to delete only one of the business partner addresses, how can it be done?

    Hi,
    the usage of the "UpdateWithSubDeletion" method of B1 object atom might be an option.
    You need to update the complete business Partner with the changed amount of addresses.
    The usage is tricky, you need to retrieve the BP, which you want to update, first via synchronous retrieval method using import/export mode.
    From the retrieval result you should start to update every segment with all fields including the BPAddresses segment in exactly the same sorting order as displayed from the synchronous retrieval.
    Best regards

  • How do I change a primary admin from Teams and remove the original primary admin?

    I have added another admin to Creative Cloud for Teams, and need to change that user to primary admin, and then remove my Adobe account (the original primary admin) from the Teams group.  Is it possible to do this?

    Currently you cannot change the primary admin on a CCT membership. As a workaround, follow these steps:
    Cancel the existing team membership: You can cancel the membership without any penalty. The accounts for team members change to trial mode. Members can still access their saved data in the cloud storage. To cancel the membership, click theChat Now button at the bottom of this page to initiate chat with a live agent.
    Buy a new team membership; use the Adobe ID for the new primary admin.
    Reinvite team members using the new primary admin account.
    The team members have to accept the invitation and log in to the Creative Cloud Desktop app again. Their apps are activated under the new team account. 
    from adobe... basically... suck it up
