Transfer purchased songs from one AppleID to another

I have a large library of songs downloaded from iTunes, but some of them have been purchased with a different Apple ID than the one I normally use. How can I "transfer" them to my "normal" user?

You can't yourself. Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff if they'll do it.

Won't let me transfer purchased songs from one computer to another

The itunes wont let me transfer purchased songs from one computer to the other via home sharing even though both are authorised?

Burn that songs to a *DATA DVD/CD* using iTunes - then take the resulting disk to your desktop computer; that disk will show up in iTunes' left column; drag the songs into your library.

Transfer purchased songs from one computer to another

I bought 6 songs on my laptop due to a better internet connection. I want to transfer them to my desktop computer. When I log in, it has all my old songs listed, not the one's that I bought from my laptop and my old songs together. How can I merge these songs? This has been so frustrating!!
If I go into my account information, it has a record of the songs purchased, but it's not listed in my library.
Help!!!

Transfer purchased applications from one account to another.

I recently created a new iD Apple but I can not transfer purchased applications from the old account to the new one. How do I?

Purchased apps, music, etc. are forever associated with the Apple ID used when they were purchased. You can't transfer them to another account.

Is there a way to transfer purchased songs from one iTunes account to a new iTunes account?

This is a bit difficult to explain so bear with me! My two little sisters, years ago, started buying music off the iTunes store. It was my account so now i have all their purchased songs and apps on my account. At the time they were too little to have thier own email so I just let them do it on mine, I didn't see any problem with it. However, now that I am on iCloud and they all have iphones, I am stuck with all their contacts, music, games, etc. I do not want their music so I am wondering if there is a way to transfer their purchased items onto a new iTunes account that I will set up for them (they are in high school now and have their own emails, etc.) I have searched online and haven't found a solution to this. Please help! I understand that only one account can have rights to a song, but I would like to transfer their purchased songs to a new account.

Purchases cannot be transferred to a new Apple ID.
You can stop receiving their info by signing out of iCloud.

What is the best way to transfer 1200 songs from one SGIII to another SGIII?

I have over 1200 songs on my Samsung Galaxy III and want to transfer them all in one block to my husband's SG III. I have Backup Assistant Plus with most of the music uploaded there. I asked at our local Verizon store but no one there knew how to use this phone! Can anyone help me?

the commercial is deceiving to me. i am not the most techy person and i thought that you could share full song playlist which to me meant the songs also. that is all, it wasnt anything you had said but i am really thankful you enlightened me because i would still be racking my brain trying to figure out how to do it.
You can share songs, but if there is DRM protection on the song, it will not play on the other device unless you also transfer the rights to the other device. You are getting into the problem of music piracy.

How do I transfer purchased music from one account to another?

I just recently got an iPad3 and made a new iTunes account on it. My mom and I have been sharing one iTunes account for a while on my computer, but now that we both have iPads we would like seperate accounts. I'm trying to take the purchased music off the joint account and transfer it to my account so I can delete the old one on my computer and sync my iPad to my computer. Help???

How can I transfer purchased apps from one iPad to another?

Hi all,
We just got a second iPad. Previously our single iPad was registered under my Apple ID. My wife downloaded lots of apps for the kids on our old iPad. Now I want to associate the old iPad with my wife's Apple ID, but be able to keep all the kids apps on it that were previously purchased under my apple ID. I don't really want any of the kids apps on the new iPad - especially since I will usually have it with me at work. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks.
NM

You can't associate purchased apps with another Apple ID. The apps are tied to the ID that was used to purchase them.
If you sign in on the iPad with the ID that purchased the apps - then you can download them again using the ID that is associated with those purchases.

Hello all, I hope you can help. How do I transfer some songs from one account to another?

Hello, My daughter and I share an Itunes account. She's getting older now and I'd like to transfer all my music to a new account. Is it possible and how? Thanks very much

You cannot.
Authorize her computer for your account and she can use the music.

Can i transfer songs from one playlist to another on my ipod on my iphone4?

I am wondering if I can transfer a song from one playlist to another on the ipod on my iphone4. If so how do i do it?

I have home sharing turned on but can't figure out how to save the songs to the new computer.
First, make sure you've got the home share set up on both computers, as per the following document. If material on the original PC was bought from the iTunes Store, I'd use the AppleID you used for the purchases to set up the Home Share on both PCs.
iTunes: Setting up Home Sharing on your computer
Have both computers running and have iTunes open on both computers.
Now, in the iTunes on the computer you want to transfer music to, select the library that you want to transfer music from, as per the following screenshot:
Once the other library loads, go down to the bottom of the screen and in "Show:" select "Items not in my library":
If you want to import all of the songs you can now see, head up to the iTunes menu bar and go "Edit > Select all". Then head down to the bottom of the screen again and click the "Import" button in the bottom-right-hand corner.
If there's a lot of stuff in your original PC's library, the transfer may take some time.

How can I transfer apps purchased from one AppleId to another due to breach of account?

Due to a recent security breach not if my doing a user stole my apple id and needed to change appleid account. Now as a result i've lost all purchased apps from the itune store. I would like to transfer apps from one apple id to another without incurring additional costs. With sufficient information in direct contact with the store I should be able to transferable within the software or at very least with the itune store direct. Perhaps this is a way of charging additional costs for same programs?
Not a happy camper because of the theft in id but now to add insult to injury i'll have to repurchase the apps to properly sync with my devices.
Any help would be appreciated

You can't transfer iTunes content from one account to another. If someone had obtained access to your account credentials and you've had the account locked that should not affect the current authorizations on your computer, though it will prevent you from updating apps until you have resolved the issue. Rather than creating a new AppleID what you should do is regain control of your original Apple ID and have it reenabled with a new password, get, if possible, Apple to deauthorize all computers for your account (assuming you don't have 5 so can't do it yourself) then authorize your computers.
