Somehow I have two apple accounts. Can I merge the two?

I am not sure why but I have two apple accounts with two different email addresses.  This is causing problems with iMessages not syncing over my devices because the different email addresses cause messages to be sent to different devices so I miss messages.  Can I merge the two apple accounts, if so.  How?

Please see item no. 5 of this article:

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.

  • My wife and I have separate itunes accounts, can I merge the two

    My wife and I have seperate accounts, is there a way I can merge the two or have them recongnized as being linked so she can use the itunes match account I set up.

    No, sorry, you cannot merge iTunes Store accounts. She can connect her devices to your iTunes Match account, but she'll have to use your Apple ID and password and, to the best of my knowledge, content she purchased via her own iTunes Store account will not be included, though I'm not certain about that.
    Regards.

    You cannot merge Apple ID's, all purchases are assigned to one account and cannot be transferred to another.

    You cannot merge iTunes accounts, Apple does not allow it.

    I have two itunes accounts, can I merge them?

    If you are using a username for your account, you will need to change it to an email address that is required by the system now. If both your accounts are using the same email, you will need to provide another one as you will not be able to use an email for multiple accounts.
    Hope this helps.

    what information exactly do you want to consolidate? you can sever the connection between some info on your device from an icloud account and merge it into another account when you sign into it after, but you can't just merge the two accounts in their entirety. if you're more specific about the info, i can help you out

  • HT204150 After upgrading to Windows 8, in my Outlook 2007 Contacts I now have "Contacts in iCloud" and "Contacts from iCloud".   How can I merge the two into one Contacts list.

    After upgrading to Windows, in my Outlook 2007 Contacts I now have "Contacts in iCloud"  plus "Contacts from iCloud".  How can I merge the two to avoid duplication.

    Hi Ingo 2711,
    Thank you for your suggestion.  I backup on itunes. I went to itunes, deleted syncing my contacts, then re-synced them. But the Facetime capability option continues to be there on most (not all, for some curious reason) of my contacts. I am not sure I posed my question correctly.  I want to be able to FT with my family, so don't want to delete the FT capability totally from my iphone and ipad. But I don't want all these other iphone calls from various contacts to ring on my ipad as FT calls.  I want a way to select with whom I have FT capabilities. Any further suggestions? Thanks much, trekpal

  • I have 2 icloud accounts, can I merge them and just keep one?

    I have 2 icloud accounts, can I merge them and just keep one?

    The simple answer is no
    But some info can be saved and merged.
    When your signed into one account, sign out and save the data you can, to the device.
    Sign into the other account and merge the info.
    Best of Luck

  • I signed up for Apple ID and Apple Support Communities separately. Can I merge the two accounts?

    I signed up for an "Apple ID" and an "Apple Support Communities username" separately using the same e-mail address.  Is there any way to merge the two accounts?
    I signed up for "Apple Support Communities" several years ago to get help with Apple products. I then signed up for an "Apple ID" later on to buy stuff at the iTunes Store.
    I was trying to access "Apple Support Communities" using my Apple ID and I get prompted to choose a username. But when I type my current username, it says the username is already taken. Alternatively, if I try to choose a new username to go along with my Apple ID, I get a message saying that there is a username already assigned to my e-mail address.
    For some reason, "Apple Support Communities" is not intuitively syncing the two accounts together despite the fact that they are linked to the same e-mail address.
    I don't want to cancel either of these accounts since I have activities using one/the other that I do want to preserve.
    Can anyone help me merge these two accounts together?
    Thanks.

    I will do it for you.   I can't say they will take any action, they operate in their own way, but if they feel there may be a threat to your security they will normally take it seriously.   My guess is they would eMail their actions to you, though not to me of course.
    I hope this will help.
    Okay; I've now reported the thread.

  • I have the same itunes account on two different devices with different information.  how can I merge the two?

    I have an ipad which was synced with an old computer.   I have moved everything to the icloud from my new computer and iphone besides what is on the ipad.  The itunes account is the same, just different info on the two.  How do I merge them? 

    Hello there, Shininglight66.
    It sounds like you're asking how to get content on the iPad transferred down to your computer. The following Knowledge Base article should help out with that issue:

  • I have two itunes accounts on two different computers, can i merge the accounts so i can then have the same music on both ipod and iphone?

    i have two itunes accounts one for each of my two computers, can i merge them so that i can have the same music on my ipod and iphone,
    it is all so confusing i need help!!!

    You can't currently merge accounts and the content will remain tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded it, though you can have more than one account authorised on the same computer's iTunes via Store > Authorise This Computer. As only one account can be actually logged in at a time (Store > Sign In / Sign Out) for purchasing or re-downloading/viewing past purchases, you may want to use just the one account for future purchases.

  • HT4847 I have two iCloud accounts, but purchased my extra storage on the account that I don't use. How can I merge the two accounts?

    Does anyone know how to combine two different iCloud accounts?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately it isn't possible to merge 2 Apple ID's. You would need to export the data from contacts, calendars etc and import it into the other account before logging out of the account that you do not wish to use.
