Transfer credit balance from old account to new account

I have an Apple ID based on an e-mail address I no longer have access to. However, I also have a .mac account and when I try to change my Apple ID it says, "You cannont change this account to use an existing .Mac email address. If you would like to use your .Mac account you can cancel and Sign In using your .Mac account information."
The problem is I don't want to lose my iTunes credit in the process.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

explaining you want to convert your old iTunes account to a .mac account.

How do I transfer saved emails from old ipad to new ipad

how do I transfer saved emails from old ipad to new ipad?

Hi trevorius,
Happy New Year! The answer to your question depends on what email account you are using. If it is your iCloud email account, the email messages will be available when you enable iCloud on your new iPad. If it is an iMap account like Gmail, the messages will be redownloaded from their server.
Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT2109
Transfer content from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device
You can use iCloud or iTunes to transfer content from your current iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to another device.
Use iCloud Backup
Follow these steps if both your devices use iOS 5 or later and you have an iCloud account. If not, please follow the iTunes steps below.
You can use iCloud Backup to back up your previous device and then restore the backup to a new device. Your saved messages, email accounts, photos, notes, and other personal settings will be transferred to your new device.
See more about iCloud Backup.
Turn on iCloud Backup
Start by backing up your old device to iCloud:
Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
Turn on iCloud Backup.
You may want to connect to power and turn Wi-Fi on.
Back up now
iCloud backs up your device once a day. To back up your device before you transfer content:
Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup.
Tap Back Up Now.
Wait until the backup finishes. How long it will take depends on how big the backup is and how fast your Internet connection is.
Set up your new device
When the backup of your old device is finished, turn on your new device. Follow the setup assistant, which will ask you to choose these things:
Your language and country
Whether to enable Location Services
A Wi-Fi network
If you've already set up your device, you can reset it so that you can go through the iOS Setup Assistant again and restore from your backup. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do this only if you already have a backup.
Restore from iCloud Backup
When you're asked to set up:
Choose Restore from iCloud Backup.
Tap next.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
Choose the backup
Choose the backup of your old device and tap Restore. Wait until the device finishes restoring from the backup.
How long it will take depends on how big the backup is and how fast your Internet connection is.
Sync other content from iTunes
When the restore finishes, your device will restart. You should connect the device to iTunes to sync data that isn't in the backup (such as music, videos, or apps that you didn't purchase from the iTunes Store or the App Store ). To change the type of content that syncs, click the syncing tabs in iTunes.
Enter your passwords
When you're restoring an iCloud backup to a new device, you'll need to enter your password for your Apple ID, email and other accounts, and voicemail. If you've forgotten your voicemail password, contact your carrier.

Use iTunes
If you don't have an iCloud account or you just want to keep a backup on your computer, you can use iTunes to back up and transfer content on your device.
Get ready
Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer and the latest version of iOS on your original device.
You can't install a backup of a newer version of iOS onto devices that are using earlier versions of iOS. If your backup came from a device that has a newer version of iOS installed, update your new device before you transfer your data. For help, see Unable to restore from a backup of a newer iOS device.
Back up and transfer
First, back up your old device using iTunes. You can also encrypt the backup so that it remembers the passwords for your email, Wi-Fi, and more when you transfer to the new device. Otherwise, you can re-enter these passwords on the new device.
Then transfer your data from your device to your computer.
Remove your SIM card
If your device has a SIM card, use the SIM-extractor tool or a paper clip to remove the SIM from your old device and insert it into your new device. Or if your carrier gave you a new SIM card, use that instead.
Set up the new device
When the backup of your old device is finished, turn on your new device. Follow the setup assistant, which will ask you to choose these things:
Your language and country
Whether to enable Location Services
A Wi-Fi network
If you don’t have a Wi-Fi or cellular data connection, you can also activate by tapping Connect to iTunes.
Restore the backup
When prompted to set up your device, select Restore from iTunes Backup.
Connect to iTunes
Connect your new device to iTunes, using the same computer you used to back up your current device. iTunes will ask you to restore from backup or set up as new. Select the backup of your old device and choose Continue.
If the progress bar in iTunes pauses for a while, wait until the restore finishes.
Sync other content
When the restore finishes, your device restarts, and then it's ready for you to use.
Keep your device connected to iTunes to sync content that isn't in the backup (such as music, videos, and apps). To change the type of content that syncs, click the syncing tabs in iTunes.
Enter your passwords
If you restored from an unencrypted backup, you'll need to enter the password for your Apple ID, email and other accounts, and voicemail. If you've forgotten your voicemail password, contact your carrier.

How to transfer icloud data from old computer to new computer

how to transfer icloud data from old computer to new computer

The iCloud data will be on the new computer as soon as you download the iCloud control panel and sign into iCloud with your iCloud ID. What you see in iCloud is stored in iCloud, so it really doesn't matter what computer you are on. Once that computer is signed onto iCloud and the iCloud options are selected, you have full access to all of that information, and much of it is pushed back to your computer.
If you are referring to the data in an iCloud backup created by an iOS device, then that is not something that would be on a computer at all.
Does that answer your question? If not, post back with more info about what you are looking to find out.

How do I transfer ipod playlist from old ipad to new ipad?

How do I transfer ipod playlist from old ipad to new ipad?

Is this a playlist you created on your old iPad, or a playlist you created with iTunes on your computer?
If the former, you should have been prompted to transfer the backup for your old iPad to your new iPad the first time you connected your new iPad to iTunes on the computer used for syncing your old iPad. If not or you declined, you need to restore your new iPad from the backup of your old iPad.
If the playlist was created with iTunes on your computer, transfer the playlist from your iTunes library on your computer to your new iPad via the iTunes sync process.

Tried to use home sharing to transfer itunes library from old pc to new -- however it only brings over the music, did not bring audiobooks- My question is do I need to delete itunes from my new pc when I redo using external hard drive

Trying to transfer iTunes library from old windows 7 pc to new windows 8.1. Used home sharing, but not what I wanted, I want everything on the new so I can discard the old pc - so now all I have is my music library on new pc thru the cloud none of my Audible audiobooks came over - My question is do I need to delete iTunes off my new pc before I load it in from a external hard drive?

You might need to make sure neither is going to sleep (System Prefs > Energy Saver)
Also check your settings under System Prefs > Security. My sisters new laptop kept logging off due to some setting there.

Regarding transfer of data from old pernr to new pernr

Hi Gurus,
here i am with scenario,transfer data from old pernr to new pernr with out using actions type.
it is better can anyone tell me the function module for the above scenario.

Hi, 
What do you mean by new pernr?
Is the employee rejoined the same company in same country? - Then can change the employement status of the employee in IT0000 to active and the load other required data for this use REHIRE action.This will with only old pernr. (there is no new pernr concept. employee is just rejoining the same company in same country)
or if you have to use different pernr, then use to alteast use hiring action to create new pernr. I believe you are doing that . If you need to use old employee data from old pernr, then connect old pernr record with new pernr record using Reference Personnel Id concept of IT0031.
Please read the SAP document on help.sap. and go ahead.
If it is for different country also you can use IT0031.
I can copy paste the text from help,sap but it would look like junk. It better you and read through the document to understand the concept.
Then let me know if you need any help and do provide feedbk.
Good luck 
Thanks,
Amosha
