My wife has an old iTunes account as well as a current iTunes. How do I delete the old one?

My wife inherited my son's older iPod touch and now when we try to update apps our current account comes up then denies us access. His account then comes up and he can't remember the password. We're looking for a way to delete his OLD account.

You can't without repurchasing them from the new one.

Recently, U2 music appeared on my ipod without my requesting it or wanting it. I was able to delete all of the songs except for one. How do I delete the last one from my ipod? The song does not show up in iTunes when I plug my ipod into the computer.

I accidentally created an identical email acct, how to I delete the newer one and not the old one?

entally created an identical email acct, how to I delete the newer one and not the old one? And I'm receiving e's just from the new one.

Move the "e's" (email messages?) to the old account first. You can drag and drop.
To remove an account in Thunderbird:
'''[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Menu_differences_in_Windows,_Linux,_and_Mac Tools|Account Settings]|<select the unwanted account>|'''
Down at the bottom of the left-hand pane, '''Account Actions''' then '''Remove Account'''.
Are both accounts using POP? That could explain why new messages appear in the new account but not the old.
It could help to post your Thunderbird settings data: '''Help|Troubleshooting Information'''. Clear the "Include account names" checkbox. Click on "Copy text to clipboard", then paste (ctrl+v) into your next posting here.

You cannot transfer from the iPhone to the computer.
You must move the contents of your old computer to the new one directly.
Use an external hard drive perhaps or restore your old computer backup to your new computer.
The iPhone is not the source of your data, that is the computer, the iPhone is only a slave device to iTunes.

My wife has an old Ipod nano tied to an old Apple ID. How do I update that to our new combined iTunes account

My wife has an old Ipod nano tied to an old Apple ID. How do I update that to our new combined iTunes account

My wife has not updated this iPod for about 3 years. She had an old Apple account, for which, we don't have either the login or the password to anymore. She has been using my Apple account for Aps and other orders from Apple for her iPad, hence, the combined account, be it really is my account. A week ago, she decided to fire up the old iPod and order and paid for a lot of new music. That music is all there on my computer under my account. It initially would not sync to my account in iTunes and not only that it wiped out all the old songs that were on the iPod. I then did the restore as instructed, which wiped out anything else on the iPod. Once complete, the iPod showed up under the name to "test account." I have no idea how that happened as it was previously named Mary's iPod. During the process, I was not asked for a name nor can I now find a place to change the name. It is very strange, the test account icon shows up on the screen in my iTunes account, all of her new music is there, but every time I sync to the iPod, it goes through the process but does not add the songs. The iPod is completely blank now.

Your description of the problem is a bit confusing. Do you have ONLY ONE Apple ID or do you have MORE THAN ONE?

HT1918 I have 2 Apple ID's, how do I delete the old one as its interferring with my new account and the music I have already purchased through ITunes does not want to play. Any suggestions?

Why would you create a new account?
All purchases will be tied to the account from which they were purchased.
You will have to authorize your computer for all the accounts from which music is purchased.

HT1491 I have two itunes accounts with different Apple ID's. How can I merge them into one?

I ahve two itunes accounts with different Apple ID's. How can I merge them into one account?

Apple has no provisions for this. You cannot merge multiple Apple ID's into one ID. Content is always tied to the Apple ID that was used to purchase it.

So my sister created an iCloud account for me but she has forgotten the password...she has also forgotten the password for the associated email such that I can't retrieve the password for that account...how do I delete the account ?

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

I have a new Iphone 5, my wife has a 4S and an iPod Touch. When I sync my new 5 to the Mac, it pick up ALL of the stupid game apps that my wife uses on her two devices. How can I keep them separate?

go to itunes preferences, store, uncheck automatic downloads. also when your phone is connected you can click on apps and only check the ones you want on your phone, go down to the bottom right and click apply.

My ipad has stopped updating apps. It doesn't even ask for password, it just oges to the apps screen showing empty progress bars. I've re-synced account and restarted but with no luck. Other than deleting the apps is there anyway around this?

OK. I will work backwards.
You certainly don't want to have to delete apps every time that they need an update, for any number of reasons. Losing data first and foremost would be a drag, but the overall hassle would be absurd. All things being equal, you should be able to update apps in the future after you delete them and reinstall them. I delete and reinstall apps all the time and I am also able to update them when updates are available for the apps. I just wanted to know if you had any success in any fashion installing apps.
Resyncing/refreshing the Apple ID/iTunes account wouldn't seem to be the issue either if you can download apps or other content from the iStores. Your ID is being accepted.
That leaves us with I'm not sure what. But I think I would try this trick fix and see if it helps.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to update the apps again.

How do i delete apps on itunes ??? i went to the library and it only shows a few apps that i have. But when i go into my account i can see all of the apps i have downloaded. soooo how do i delete the apps that are only showing in my account?

How do I delete an app on iTunes? I can delete the apps that are shown in the library of iTunes by right clicking and hitting "delete". But all of my apps aren't shown in the library (I don't understand that either). I can see all downloaded apps in my account though. But I don't see how to delete them from there.

If you plug in your iphone, click on it in iTunes, and go to the apps section, it should be checked to sync apps if you want them to show up in iTunes as well as your iPhone. Once synced they will show on both.
Then if you click Apps under the Library header in the left panel of iTunes, you'll be able to permanently delete apps, removing them entirely from iTunes. Highlight an app's icon or a group of icons by holding down Shift and hit the delete key (or select Edit > Delete from the top menu or right-click on an icon and selecting delete).
