My account ID is registered to an email address of a former employer. Is there a way to shift my purchases to a different account with a personal email address?

I made the unfortunate mistake of linking my apple ID to a work email address, which I obviously no longer have access to. I have another, personal apple ID registered to a personal email, but I don't want to re-purchase software. Is this possible?

App or iTunes store purchases cannot be transferred from one Apple ID account to another, sorry

Is there a way to merge my purchases from two apple accounts

I made several song purchases with an apple ID that I had set up when I purchased an Ipod. My Ipod broke and I forgot about my apple ID and account for a while. Then when I purchased my Iphone I had set up a different appleID and account and made a few purchases with that account. I would like to install everything I purchased through both accounts but am I only able to have my phone associated with one apple ID and my purchases made with that appleID, or is there a way I can get all of my purchases merged to one apple ID account?

Any content purchased from the iTunes Store is permanently, and perpetually, and eternally, and I mean like forever, tied to the account from which it was originally purchased. Apple provides no way to move songs to a different account.
You can however put songs from multiple accounts into a single iTunes library.

Not easily, no. The better solution would be to put a passcode on the phone.

I have an old shuffle that I created with a different email address that I no longer have. is there a way to add these songs to my new account

I have an old shuffle that I still use with many songs. I created this account with an old email address that I no longer have. Is there any way to transfer these songs to my new account so I may purchase more songs and still use my shuffle? Thank you!

Basically, no, but as long as all the music is in the same iTunes library and it doesn't contain protected content from more than five Apple IDs, you don't need to. If desired, click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for assistance.

My itunes account was disabled for some reason. I changed password in iforgot and still didn't work. I could log in but not make purchases from the store so I set up a new login/account . Is there any way to move my music to the new account?

My itunes account was disabled for some reason. I changed password in iforgot and still didn't work. I could log in and see my music but not make purchases from the store or even redeem an itunes gift card so I set up a new login/account with another email account of mine. On the new account I can redeem my gift card and download items onto my ipad2. Is there any way to move my music to the new account?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

My iPhone is using my work email to sign in to the cloud, but my apple id and password are with my "personal" email address. I can't get rid of my "work" email address on my iPhone 4S

Hi Sister Kate,
If you change the Apple ID you are using on an iPhone or other iOS device, there are several places you need to change it on the device. See this article -
Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

I redeemed a giftcard in one of my accounts, and realized I wanted to redeem it in another. Is there a way I can transfer the money from one account to another, without being billed to my credit card?

I redeemed a giftcard in one account and realized I wanted to use it in another. Is there a way I can transfer the money from one account to the other without billing my credit card?

You can't transfer money between accounts. You can, however, gift items by clicking the arrow to the right of the price, which will achieve the same ends. It should work for everything except rentals.

My children got Itunes cards for christmas. There devices are all on my imac. Do they each need a separate account or is there a way to keep them all separate under one account.

Is there a way to create a reminder from a date that appears in an email?

Is there a way to create a reminder from a date that appears in an email that was sent to me? I know that when a date is entered into an email I can create an event on my calendar for it, but is there a way I can have it be a reminder instead?
Thank you

Here is a method for extracting a still from iMovie 09.
Are you working in iMovie and realize that certain frames in the movie would be perfect as photographs? Here is how to extract them...
*To get a still frame from an Event*, right-click on the frame and select "Add Still Frame to Project". The still will be added to the end of the current project. Right click on the still frame in the project and select "Reveal in Finder". You will see a jpeg file that is highlighted. Drag this jpeg file in the finder to the iPhoto icon on your dock.
*If you want a still from a project*, rather than an event, the process is similar, except you right-click on the frame and select "Add Freeze Frame", and it adds the freeze frame at the end of the clip rather than at the end of the project. Right-click/reveal in Finder, drag JPEG to iPhoto icon in dock.
*If you are not using iPhoto*, and just want to save to your desktop, click Reveal in Finder as above, then COPY, then PASTE to desktop.
Hint: If you do not want to clutter up your iMovie Project with stills at the end that you would have to go back and delete, then create a separate iMovie Project just for your stills, and follow the instructions for capturing stills from an Event.
Note: If you do not have a right mouse button, then control-click will work instead of right-click.

Is there a way of shifting purchases from one account to another with the same billing information, so that I don't lose purchases made by my iPhone when I sync?

The AOL address I was using for my iTunes account has been deleted due to me not signing in for awhile and I'm afraid that I will lose all of my purchases made from my iphone when I sync it into iTunes for a much needed update and so that I can (hopefully) transfer its data to my new iPhone 4...
The only time I have synced my current iPhone was when I activated it but since then I have not been able to sync with my computer and now have a new one.
Sorry about the garbled way this is written but I desperately need help:
1, Is there a way of shifting purchases from one account to another with the same billing information?
Or
2, is there a way of recovering my old account and changing the details?
Any other help is greatly appreciated
Thom

You don't need to access your e-mail account, just get into your Apple account and change the e-mail address. If you can't access your Apple account, then you have a bigger issue to contend with.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, not good, then you can redownload some purchases in some countries.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Sure there is: You can ask your child to teach you how to do it, or you can go to this page and learn how to do it yourself.
