I would like to merge my On My Mac addresses with my iCloud, and so I do not have any duplicates. How do I do that?

Help! My address book is duplicated, iCloud and On My Mac and I don't know how to merge them so that I don't have double entries. All I want is iCloud, so that it transfers to my other devices. At the moment I have birthdays twice or even three times in my iCal, because of duplicate address books. This is infuriating me, and I'm sure is a simple fix.
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can move your contacts from 'on my mac' by dragging them to the iCloud account.

I am currently running two email accounts on my iPhone 4s.
Both accounts have email/contacts/calendar synced to the phone so I can have all contacts on the phone.
I now have to close one of these accounts due to work but I would like to keep all the contacts on the account I am closing, on the iPhone.
Does anyone know how to save these contacts to my phone so I dont lose any?
Much appreciated.

Automatically cc myself is not checked. I did find out that if you have multiple email address that all of them need to be associated with "My Contact" tab. Thanks

HT1689 A few years ago, I used my husband's Apple ID for my iTunes account. I now have my own Apple devices and would like to change the ID on my iTunes account so I can load my music to my devices. How can I do that?

A few years ago, I used my husband's Apple ID for my iTunes account. I now have my own devices (iPhone, iPad) and my own account, but would like to download my music that is listed under my husband's iTunes account. How can I change the account name to mine?

Thank you, can I transfer them to my account
No.

My husband and I are now separated. I would like to separate the bill. He on one bill, myself and the kids on another (4 numbers). How can I make this happen?

How do I separate the bill for the family? My husband on one Bill and myself and the kids on another?

rcschnoor,
Great advice! Thanks for helping Elmeag; I know it's important to have this separation completed correctly and as soon as possible. I am pleased to confirm the Assumption of Liability can be performed over the phone; first, the account owner has to call our Customer Service Department and release the line(s) to the assuming party. Then, if the assuming party is with the account owner at the time, you'll be transferred to the Assumption of Liability Department to complete the process.

I would like to download iMessage for my mac book pro.

I would like to download iMessage for my mac book pro OS X, 10.8.1. When I try to install imessage it says that I need 10.7. What do I have to do to get imessage installed?

It sounds like you already have iMessages setup. Did you sign into iCloud from system preferences and did you also add your iCloud account to Mail?
They should, just sign you into iMessages when you load Messages.app.
If you are only being asked to put in your AIM id (which it is really asking for your APPLE ID) then it means that you are already signed into iMessages (hopefully)
To check this, go to Messages>Preferences>accounts and choose iMessages. Make sure that it says it is enabled.
Now close out of the preferences, and then hit cmd 0, to bring up the Chat Box.
The Chat box lets you use iMessages begin a conversation with a friend in your contacts.
simply type their name into the TO field at the top of the chat box and find a contact with "IMessages" next to their name. Hover over that contact, and if a blue Talk Bubble comes up next to the name, that account is ready to receive iMessages.
Click the account and begin a conversation.
If you have setup everything correctly with your Apple ID on your iDevices as well as in Messages on OSX, you should be able to have a synced conversation with all of them.
Please note, if you were using your Apple ID with iChat before ML, then you most certainly have an AIM account and you were using it in the past. If you want a buddy list, then you should follow the prompt to sign in with your AIM account, but treat it like it is asking you for an Apple ID. Sign in with your apple id to the aim account it asks you to sign into and then you'll have your old iChat buddy list back.
iMessages does not have a buddy list associated with it. you need to organize your Contacts with their user information and then you need to use the To field in the chat box to communicate and find people with iMessages. Only gtalk, jabber, aim, bonjour, yahoo have the ability to show you a buddy list. iMessages buddy list is Contacts.app
if iMessages is not enabled, you can enable it by clicking on the iMessages account in Messages>preferences>accounts and then signing in with the same apple id you have tied to your iOS devices.
I hope this helps.

You do not.
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.

i have 2 itunes accounts and would like to merge them into 1 account... any help??

If you mean iTunes Store accounts, you can't.
If you mean iTunes libraries, import the files and playlists from one library to the other.

I have created 2 photo books and would like to merge them into one. How can I do this?

I have created 2 photo books and would like to merge them together. How can i do this?

You can't just merge them. You will have to add the photos of Book B to Book A and add new pages to A to duplicate those in B.
NOthing was said about copying and pasting - you add the photos from book B to book a, add pages to bbok a and recreate teh pages in book a
Another way would be to print book B to PDF sending the PDF to iPhoto and then placing the pages as full page images in book A

I have several iphoto libraries i would like to merge and delete duplicates

i have several iphoto libraries i would like to merge and delete duplicates

The only way to merger libraries is to use the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager . The paid version also has a duplicate finder feature that can identify duplicates.
If you have the latest versions of iPhoto AND Aperture you can merge libraries with Aperture.
These additional applications will identify and help remove duplicate photos from an iPhoto Library:
iPhoto Library Manager - $29.95 (also mergers libraries).
Duplicate Annihilator - $7.95 - only app able to detect duplicate thumbnail files or faces files when an iPhoto 8 or earlier library has been imported into another.
PhotoSweeper - $9.95 - This app can search by comparing the image's bitmaps or histograms thus finding duplicates with different file names and dates.
DeCloner - $19.95 - can find duplicates in iPhoto Libraries or in folders on the HD.
DupliFinder - $7 - shows which events the photos are in.
iPhoto AppleScript to Remove Duplicates - Free
PhotoDedupo - $4.99 (App Store) - this app has a "similar" search feature which is like PhotoSweeper's bitmap comparison. It found all duplicates
Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto - free - was able to recognize the duplicated HDR and normal files from an iPhone shooting in HDR
Some users have reported that PhotoSweeper did the best in finding all of the dups in their library: iphoto has duplicated many photos, how...: Apple Support Communities.
If you have an iPhone and have it set to keep the normal photo when shooting HDR photos the two image files that are created will be duplicates in a manner of speaking (same image) but there are only twp apps that detected the iPhone HDR and normal photos as being duplicates: PhotoSweeper and Duplicate Cleaner for iPhoto. None of the other apps detected those two files as being duplicates as they look for file name as well as other attributes and the two files from the iPhone have different file names.
iPLM, however, is the best all around iPhoto utility as it can do so much more than just find duplicates. IMO it's a must have tool if using iPhoto.

I have 2 iCloud accounts and would like to merge them

i have 2 iCloud accounts and would like to merge them together

I'm afraid this is not possible. Of course you can manually transfer data such as calendars and contacts from one account to another, but you can't move email addresses across (including aliases).
However you may be able to get what you want by signing the second account in at System Preferences (or Settings)>Mail, Contacts and Calendars so that the data from that account appears alongside the main account. This 'secondary' account cannot use Photo Stream or Find My iPhone/iPad.Mac.
If you have been using one account for iCloud and another for iTunes there is no conflict in doing this since they are not actually related. However you cannot merge iTunes account as purchases remain tied to the original account.

2 icloud accounts, would like to merge

I have 2 icloud accounts that I would like to merge, is that possible?

I'm afraid not. Obviously you can go through the process of transferring calendar and contact data manually, but you can't move email addresses from one account to another nor merge the other facilities.

I would like to merge my On My Mac addresses with my iCloud, and so I do not have any duplicates. How do I do that?
