ITunes Account email address

Long story, but I have 2 iTunes accounts, one of which I no longer use.  The email system for my primary account is going away, and I need to associate this primary account with a different active email address. I'd like to associate it to my other accounts email address. Is there a way I can either close or disable this second unused iTunes account, and move the email address associated with it to my primary account? Any other suggestions on how to fix this problem (other than open a 3rd email account someplace)?
thanks.

I accually called them and was on the phone for like two hours trying to fix it. Do you have an apple id? if so you can use that to buy a free song and then synce the phone and then after that try to buy something and your apple id name should come up. I was using my aol email address and then for some reason it stoped working and I couldnt bye anything. I did that and now I can buy stuff again..hope this helps

  • I have changed my itunes account email address but apps linked to itunes have not updated email address on iphone 4

    I have changed my itunes account email address but apps linked to itunes have not updated to the new email address on iphone 4

    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")
    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.

  • Switch Itunes Account Email Addresses

           I have two itunes accounts: one of them has all of my information while the other one is not even registered (I haven't put in any billing information or created an apple ID). I want to change the email address of one account (all my information) to the email address of the other account, but I am not able to switch the email addresses because I cannot have one email for two accounts at any time! How will I be able to switch the email addresses? Please help!
    Thanks!

    Login to your unused AppleID and change the primary mail address so that it is available for the other account.

  • Change iTunes account Email Address on iPhone

    Hi,
    I have read a lot of posts in here about this but none seem to fix my problem.
    I have changed my email address in iTunes account. I have synced iTunes with my iPhone.
    But when I try and buy something my old email address appears on the iPhone iTunes store and it won't let me buy anything.
    How can I change the email address the iPhone uses for purchasing things?

  • HT1311 Change secondary iTunes account email address.

    My iPhone uses icloud with my primary apple id, lets call it [email protected]
    But my iPhone used to sync with my old apple id, lets call it [email protected]
    My [email protected] email address is going away, so I need to update the apple id, ie [email protected] to [email protected]
    When I do this, my iPhone can update apps from [email protected], but updating old apps asks for a password for [email protected], when that [email protected] no longer exists, so it fails. How do I make my phone update old apps using the updated email address?

    Please read my question again, I am not asking to transfer purchase from [email protected] to [email protected], I am asking how to update the email address on my old apple id [email protected] to [email protected] and continue to update my old apps on my iPhone.

  • Can two Iphones have the same account/email address?

    Can two iphones have the same account/email address? I bought two phones-one for my wife and the other for myself. They are both under the same account /itunes account /email address-Would this cause a conflict with the two phones?

    No, as long as you want to share the same account for iCloud's services like Mail, Calendars, Contacts, Reminders, Notes, iCloud, Documents etc.
    I personally would create two accounts so that everyone could have and use  heir own mail account, address book, create meetings, reminders etc. without reading and deleting stuff of the other person.

  • HT1918 How Do I reverse my main Apple ID email address with my Apple (iTunes) Restore email address?

    How Do I reverse my main Apple ID email address with my Apple (iTunes) Restore email address?

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished goThen go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • TS4003 iTunes account email different then mobileme email

    How do I change my iTunes account email without loosing all my purchases?  intel iMac iPad 1 and iPhone 4S

    Yes you can change the email that you use for your iTunes account, but what I was saying is that you cannot change it to the me address that you use with your mobile me account. It isn't absolutely necessary that you use the same account for all Apple services, it may well help a little in remembering your login details, however unless you migrate your MobileMe account to an iCloud account and use it for your iCloud services you will not be able to use your me address.

  • Sending email using Exchange 2013 defined email addresses not the account email address.

    Currently we are using exchange 2013. Let's say a user has a mailbox account defined that has a default email reply address of [email protected] Now I define additional email address for the same account. When the user tries to send an email he can only send from
    the default email address. Is it possible to send from a defined email anndress and not the default account email address?
    Best Regards
    Best Regards

    Not natively with Exchange.
    You will need 3rd party software if you want to have only one mailbox and the ability to send as any of the proxy addresses associated with it
    Example:

    Not sure if Exchange 2013 is supported with it yet

  • Change primary account email address?

    Is it possible to take a newly created sub account and make it the primary account email address? If so would this carry over to other linked services (ie Flickr) so I could delete the original primary email address
    Thanks

    Flickr maintains its own database to login. It only uses the email to communicate and update you. Once you 'll get your primary email changed in BT, you can maintain the same on flickr thereafter.
    Note: Changing your primary email address on Flickr will not change your Yahoo! log in.

    Sorry, but I'm going to question this again. The only way a BTinternet user can have a flickr pro account is by the association with their Broadband email address (either primary or sub account). Using any other email address (e.g. payg) will get the user a very limited Flickr account.
    Unless the primary email address already in use by Stuart is converted to a sub account, then it is likely to cause problems and effectively stop them being a pro user.
    The link you quoted has nothing to do with altering the user's Flickr status which is actually in question here.
    Now - I am not saying that you are wrong, to me it just doesn't add up with the info I am aware about with regard Flickr pro accounts.

  • HT204053 My icloud account email address is my old email address.  How do I change it to my current email address?

    my icloud account email address is my old email address.  how do I change it?

    To change the iCloud ID ("email address") you have to 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 ID you wish to use.  If you don't know the password for your old ID, or if it isn't accepted, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I need to change the iCloud account email address.

    I need to change the iCloud account email address as this email is now canceled. Can't seem to find how ;(

    If you mean the non-Apple email address which is your login, you can change it at http://appleid.apple.com - click on 'Manage your account'. You can't change the @icloud.com address you set up when you opened the account.

  • Transferring sub account email address to new Broa...

    My daughter used an email address as a sub account on my main account. She recently became a new BT Broadband customer at another address.
    She used my sub account email address as a BT ID on her new account and can access her account information.
    However her email address is no longerfunctioning as an email address, not being recognised as such. consequently she cannot access her emails.
    Can the moderators arrange to transfer her email address and emails to her new account as her main email address?
    Many thanks
