Switched from AOL to Apple account - now cannot use songs on 2nd computer

Hi there hope someone can help me
i changed (deleted) my old account 'cause my e-mail and billing changed (from AOL to Apple ID).
So far so good, after that there are no problems on my main computer.
But I also registered my laptop as a 2nd user for my music. Since I changed the account everything was ok.
But now iTunes will not play the "old" music (bought with the "deleted" AOL account). Everytime when i want to play a song it asks me for the old (AOL) account, but naturally it does not exists and login fails. When I use the new account to register iTunes on the "old" songs, it shows an succesful login but i still cannot play the song (the login window shows againg).
How can I "switch/ transfer" the songs from my old account (AOL) to the new one (Apple ID).
Register/ De-register won't help.
Thanks for any help
Tom

What exact error message will you receive when trying to login with your old AOL ID?
Also take a look at http://www.apple.com/de/support/itunes/musicstore/email/
You may use the contact form at the bottom:
"Ich kann meinen abgelaufenen AOL-Account nicht konvertieren"
Viel Glück!

  • Can't Switch From AOL To Apple Account

    In preparation for a new phone on June 29th, I'm trying to switch from AOL account to Apple account. I want to be able to migrate all my TV show purchases to my new phone.
    I enter the incorrect AOL password a few times, then iTunes lets me enter account information to change the account. It looks like it gets hung up on the final (or nearly final) step, where iTunes asks what county I live in for tax purposes. I choose my county, click on "Done", then the following red text appears... "We are currently experiencing technical difficulties. Please try again later."
    Well, I've tried this again "later", entering the text several d*mn times (I'm getting VERY frustrated at this stage) over the past several days! I need to get this resolved immediately!
    Help!

  • Problem Listening to Songs after Switching from AOL to Apple Account

    I'm not sure if anyone here has had a similar issue, but I thought I'd try anyway. So just this week, I got an iPod touch; I had a shuffle a while back. My account with iTunes was an AOL account, so when I logged into it, it made me change to an Apple account. All seemed to work okay.
    When I tried to move some old songs I had purchased with the AOL account to my new computer and play them in iTunes, it says I am not authorized to listen to them. It brings up a pop-up to sign in with the old AOL account name already filled in. When I try to sign in with it to authorize the account, it says that the AOL account has already been switched to an Apple account, so I should log in with that. But logging in with the Apple account, though I am authorized for that one, still does not let me play the song.
    Any advice? Thanks!

  • How can I remove my phone number from a previous Apple account still in use?

    I originally shared an Apple account with my family until we all updated our iphones! Now everyone could see everyone's imessages! Just to be safe I made another Apple ID just for me! How can I take off my phone number and emails from the other Apple account?
    Thanks!

    This happens when you are using the same Apple ID for iMessage.  To fix this you have two choices:
    On all but one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
    On all of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".  Also uncheck anyone else's phone number, if present.

  • Switched from DSL to cable and now can't find apple tv in itunesdevice list

    I just switched from DSL to Cable and now for whatever reason I cannot find my apple tv in the itunes device list on my desktop computer. If I use another laptop through the same wireless router I can see the apple tv no problem. My apple tv can see my wireless router and connect to the internet and watch youtube/trailers/etc.
    I have tried restoring the apple tv, and have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the itunes on the desktop. I also reset the wireless router...none of the above seem to work. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as this has been crazy frustrating...thanks in advance.

    If you have an AirPort Extreme or a Time Capsule, you need to use the AirPort utility to access it. Otherwise, your router has a control panel that you can access by entering the router's IP address into your web browser. You'll have to check your router's documentation for the default login name and password, but it's often admin admin or root root (which is why you should at least change the password as soon as possible).

  • I upgraded from elements 10 to 13 today. When PSE 13 was installed, I uninstalled PSE 10. I also own Lightroom 4.4. However, I used to be able to switch from LR4, to PSE 10 now I cannot switch to PSE 13. (Photo Edit In Edit in Photoshop) is grey. Why?

    You might also ask for help in the Lightroom forum.
    What I have found is that when I upgraded from PSE12 to 13, my Lightroom 5.6 still selected PSE12 in the list of external editors. I had to use the preferences menu to select the right PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe in the Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop Elements 13 folder. I got a message stating that Photoshop Elements was already selected as external editor. In that message box, there is a button with the option to 'change anyway', which I did. Now LR correctly opens PSE13 when I choose Edit in Elements.

  • In the old Mobile me storage I had shared storage for my family and all of our devices. How do I breakup the 55GB across my apple accounts now that iCloud is by device by user?

    In the old Mobile me storage I had shared storage for my family and all of our devices. How do I breakup the 55GB across my apple accounts now that iCloud is by device by user? Anyone else have this issue. I am also in need of correcting the storage from my work where I do not have Safari or I can not down load iCould to my desk top.

    That storage moves to master account. Since there are no accounts like that in Icloud, people in your family will enjoy complimentary 5 gigs from Apple and they will let you know if they need anymore. You will not be able to manage storage from windows desktop

  • How do I restore my iPhoto app from a deleted apple account?

    I went to the Genius Bar today because my MacBook Pro wasn't turning on, they reinstalled OSX mavericks but that did nothing. They deleted the files from my account which I'm okay with but now I can't restore my iphoto, iMovie and garage band. These apps were previously purchased from an old apple account that I have deleted because it was hacked into multiple times. I just don't want to pay $15 for iPhoto again, I don't expect my precious pictures back. Help please?

    They deleted the files from my account which I'm okay with but now I can't restore my iphoto, iMovie and garage band.
    The people at the Genius bar usually do not wipe a Mac without making sure that you have two backups. What happened to your backups? You should be able to restore the iLife applications from the backups.
    These apps were previously purchased from an old apple account that I have deleted because it was hacked into multiple times.
    Only AppleSupport can enable the old Apple ID for you again, if it has been disabled because of an account security problem.
    You need to contact Apple Support and speak to the account security team. Only Apple can help you with this.
    See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone numbers given or an email form:
         Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
    Explain, that you need help with an account security problem.

  • Switched from iPhone to Android and now iMessage being sent instead of Text

    A friend of mine recently switched from iPhone to Android and now my text are being sent as iMessage instead of text and he obviously isn't receiving it. How do I fix this bug. I'm using iPhone 4 running iOS 5

    I apologize about the odd style but I'm using voice rec software.  I just got the Galaxy S five and I have this problem too after weeks of searching online I finally figured out the problem it is with iMessage even if you have your old phones imessage switched off. you have to get your friends to text you normally and send. If the text bubble shows up blue, press and hold choose option send as SMS or text and the bubble will change to green green means SMS blue is the iMessage so its up to the iPhone user to take literally a half of an extra step to send a text to you and if they don't do that then they're just jerks
