Is there a way to transfer media from one Apple ID to a new one?

Hello everyone.
I have had one Apple ID that I have shared with my family. I have been the care taker of said Apple ID but soon I will be leaving for college so I wanted my parents to have there own ID. I had them set up an Apple ID and I am looking for a way to transfer all the media from my ID to theirs. I dont want them to purchase music and apps that I already own. Is this at all possible? If so, how?
Thanks in Advance

You canot transfer the purchases from 1 Apple ID to another. I assume if you are leaving for college you will have your own computer or are they getting a new computer?
Any way if they are keeping the computer you originally used it will be authorised to play content purchased with your ID. They need to ensure that the computer is authorised with their new id. All your Apple content will still be playable.
For you new content you need to copy all the content from the old computer to the new content.

Then authorise your new computer with your Apple ID and you will all be able to play the content but your new purchases will now only show up on your new machine.

  • Is there a way to transfer music from one Apple ID to another?

    When I got my first Ipod several years ago my parents created an Apple ID, or whatever it was called back then, so I could download music.  This is where about 90% of my music was downloaded from.  When I got my Iphone 4S just over a year ago I created my own Apple ID with my own email address.  I used this ID to download more music.  I used this ID to sign in on my laptop and I downloaded some music from some CDs and other non-Itunes material.  However it will not let me sync my Iphone to this ID because it says it can only be synced to the other one and in order to sync it with the one under my email address I have to clear what is currently on my Iphone in order to sync with the small material on the Itunes library under my email address which is stupid because then I end up losing most of my music downloads.  What I am wondering is if there is a way to transfer material from my parents ID to mine so all of my stuff is in one place without having to clear my Iphone.   

    useless sabotage is right you cannot move purchases between Apple IDs.
    What you could do is to authorise your laptop with your old Apple ID
    Store > Authorise this Computer..
    Then transfer all the old purchases from your old computer to this one so they are all in the same itunes.
    Connect up your iPhone 4 to the new machine. Yes it will ask you to erase. Go ahead and erase then as all your music is on the iTunes for this machine you can resync it but still use your new Apple ID for future purchases.

  • Is there a way to transfer bookmarks from one Mac to another

    Is there a way to transfer Safari bookmarks from from my desktop 10.41 to my laptop Leopard 10.6
    thanks Len

    On the old computer, choose Go to Folder from the Finder’s Go menu, provide ~/Library/Safari/ as the path, and move the Bookmarks file to the corresponding location on the new one.

  • Is there a way to transfer EVERYTHING from one Fathom to another?

    I need an easy way to transfer all of my programs and settings from one Fathom to another.  Basically, my current phone's screen is having problems so I got a certified replacement one.  Now I would like to be able to do a sort of system image of the old phone and put it onto the new phone. I have alot of different apps on the phone and I would rather not have to go through the process of installing each one and configuring it (assuming I can even find some of them now that the Windows Marketplace has closed down).
    There is lots of documentation on how to backup and restore contacts, but I haven't found anything useful on doing a complete system transfer.
    Anyone got a way?
    thanks in advance!!!

        Thanks so much for your inquiry!
    It's nice to get a replacement device, but it isn't so nice to try to set the phone up to your liking again!
    The only thing I can think of in order to get a majority of your items back on your device is Active Sync.

  • Is there a way to transfer money from one account to another

    please help

    No, you can't transfer an account's balance from one account to another account, nor can you use it to gift content to another account. If it's a newly redeemed card which you haven't yet used any of its balance then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can move it over to the other account : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
      Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If the computer does not see the iPod there is no way to get info off the iPod except a Data Recovery Company might be able to do it.

  • Is there a way to transfer software from one computer to another?

    When I first bought Photoshop, I downloaded the software to my laptop, which is no longer working. I want to transfer it to my desktop. I do not have the disk any more. How would I go about doing this?

    You can definitely install that on your desktop. Just make sure you have the serial key for Photoshop or any Adobe product, else the app will install as Trial.
    You can download most of the old Adobe applications from the below link.

    Its a one-stop-shop for getting installers for old Adobe products.
    Hope that Helps!

  • Is there a way to transfer purchase from old Apple ID to new one?

    Dear Apple and community
    I used to use a gmail based Apple ID when I started using iPhone and @mac.com cost $99.00 /year. I had it for a while and I made a lot of purchase through that account. Now I look back into it there are a lot of content I would like to transfer to my current icloud ID. I understand these are two different accounts and they are both mine and I am the account owner. Does not make sense to buy the same content twice. Can you please show me the workflow where I can transfer these GMAIL based purchase to ICLOUD.
    I would be much obliged to your help.
    Sincerely,
    Sam

    There is none. Only the iTunes Store staff can do that, and they'll probably refuse; if you want to try anyway, click here and ask.

  • Is there any way to transfer CS5 from current Macbook Pro to brand new iMac?

    I currently have CS5 on my Macbook Pro, but I just bought a new iMac yesterday which I want as my main design platform.  I currently cannot find my CS5 disc or upgrade information, I can only find my original CS3 Design Premium Disc.  I still have the activation codes/serial number for both CS3 and CS5, so I'm very much hoping there is a solution to get CS5 onto the iMac?!?!
