I want to cancel one iTunes store account, and then change the email associated with my other account to the deleted email. Will it work?

Hi,
I have two itunes accounts. One account has all my store purchases and is associated with my school email address, which I will eventually lose. The OTHER account has NO purchases on it, and is associated with my gmail account.
What I want is for my itunes account with all my purchases, to be associated my permanent gmail email account. However, if I try to change it, Apple of course tells me that the particular email address is already associated with another account. And, as others have said on the forums, you can't merge two accounts.
So, would it be possible to delete the gmail account entirely? And then, after that is done, change the email on my other account to my gmail address? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks!

    Thanks for your advice, I went to the apple shop today for a face to face meeting with a tech and he checked everything and could not figure out why I was having this problem so we decided to give up on that account and create a whole new one for me using a different email address.
    Now I can download apps on both my iPhone and ipad2.
    If anyone is reading this in Brisbane Australia go to the Chermside apple shop and ask for Wade. He was fantastic!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)

  • How can I change the email associated with my forum account?

    How can I change the email associated with my forum account?  I didn't provide my work email to you, but you put it in my account.  My forum postings have nothing to do with my personal PC at home.  There isn't an option to update it.

    Hi:
    Log in and click on your user name, then look at the upper the right side of the page.
    Click on the triangle to the left of the "More Resources" section.
    This will drop down, and give you options.
    Select User Settings.
    This will now open a page, and in the light blue type on top, follow it along to Contact Information, click on that, and change your e-mail address to what you want, and hit the blue submit button on the bottom right side of the page.

  • How do I move an object from one photo to another and then change the scene, i.e.  winter to sum?

    How do I move an object from one photo to another and then change the scene, i.e.  winter to summer?

    OK.
    Open the picture with the new scene. This will be your canvas.
    Open the picture with object A, select it with one of the selection tools, go to Edit>copy
    Go back to the new scene/canvas, Go to Edit>paste
    Repeat for object B
    Use the move tool to position A & B, each on its own layer. Use the corner handles of the bounding box to resize, if necessary
    You should have 3 layers: Background layer, and the 2 layers with A & B
    Note: It's best if the resolution of the 3 picture files is the same value.

  • TS2529 I recently got a new iphone and some of my apps don't work anymore. When I try to open them they either crash immediately or my phone asks for my iTunes Store password and then the app crashes. Any ideas? Help!

    I've tried to uninstall and reinstall the app but nothing happens. When I try to open the app, it either crashes immediately or asks me for my iTunes password and the the app does nothing or crashes. Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions? Also, it seems that my phone asks me for my iTunes password randomly, when I'm not trying to open apps.
    The app that I have the most problem with is the Simpsons game. I've tried to contact EA as well as apple and gotten nowhere.
    Please help if you have knowledge of what to do
    Thanks!

  • How do I change the email associated with my Firefox account on my computer?

    In the right hand corner where my drop down box is - it is showing an old email address I am getting ready to cancel. I have a new email address that I would like to enter but I cannot seem to find the right place to enter. I found the place to change the password but my only option is to change the password or to delete account. Is there somewhere else I can change the email address?
    Thank you!

    Although you can't change your email address, you can follow this procedure:
    # Disconnect all your devices from Sync.
    # Create a new Firefox Sync account.
    # Sync all your devices to your new Firefox account.
    If everything synced properly, you might want to delete your old Firefox Sync account.
    I suppose there is no "change e-mail address" option because it's so easy to create Firefox Sync accounts, but such a feature would be an excellent idea.
    I hope that helped!
    Happy browsing!

  • Can I change the primary email associated with my icloud account

    Can I change my primary email address associated with iCloud? Not the icloud address but the one you log in with. I had to switch email addresses because my email got hacked and I just paid for 25g of memory in icloud. I just want to change my email address but keep the same account so I keep the storage space I just paid for, so I can't just delete the account and open a new one.

    You can if it isn't an @me.com, @mac.com or an @icloud.com address.  To do this go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change the address to the one you want to use and verify the address.  Then tap Edit next to the ID name and change it to be the same as your new address.
    Then you'll need to make this change on your devices.  To change it on your iOS devices, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the renamed ID.  To change it on your Mac, go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign out, then sign back in with the renamed ID.  If you have a PC, do this on the iCloud control panel for Windows.

    Dear Ralph,
    Thank you for your concern, I have taken good note of your remark. Next time I will word it in an appropriate manner, I would say less confusing... I didn't knew about it, sorry about that...

  • I changed my email associated with my apple id.  The app store asks for my old email when updating apps.

    When I download a new app, the app store recognizes the new, correct email, however, when I try to update existing apps, I'm prompted with the old email.  Is this a bug?  How can I fix this?

    It sounds like you created a new Apple ID rather than changing the old one. Which means that purchases made on the old Apple ID can only be updated using that ID.
