Transfer purschases from one account to another

We had iTunes and an account on a notebook computer and the hard drive crashed shortly before Christmas. I wanted to order an iTunes giftcard and but couldn't log into iTunes from another notebook so created a new account. I was in a hurry to get this gift out. Then, I connected our iPod Nano and tried to transfer the purchases. I authorized this computer but it won't let me transfer because it says the songs belong to another iTunes library. The iTunes library on the dead computer has all our purchases, and not all of them are on our iPods (nano, 2 shuffles - different family members).
So, I need to somehow get to our original account and transfer those purchases to the new account. I have made two purchases (giftcard, 1 song) on the new account, iTunes setup on the computer. I would think there has to be a way I can work with someone at Apple/iTunes to find my original account and transfer the purchases to the new account.

There's no way to transfer items from one account to another. Why don't you just go back to your original account? If the gift card was for someone else, it shouldn't matter that you don't use the new account.
Best of luck.

    No; if the balance includes a completely unspent gift card, the iTunes Store staff can put that money back onto it.

    How does one transfer credit from one account to another?

    You can't. You cannot transfer credit from one account to another, or purchases from one account to another. Apple has made no provisions for this and does not permit it.

  • Does anyone know how to transfer funds from one account to another?

    I Accidentally redeemed my itunes gift card to the wrong account. Does anyone know how I could transfer the funds?

    Gabby,
    It is not possible to transfer credit from one account to another.
    However, if you redeem a gift card and have not yet spent any of it, you can request to have the amount put back onto the card.  Contact iTunes Customer Service here:

  • How can i transfer apps from one account to another.?

    now i had bought apps with my old account. but when i sync them into my phone i cant update them using my account, i need the old itunes i had. How can i transfer all bought apps onto my new account?

    You can't.
    All 3rd party apps - all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to purchase/download the apps. DRM cannot be transferred from one account to another.
    Why did you get a new iTunes account? Changing your email address alone does not require doing so.

  • Is there a way to transfer money from one account to another

    please help

    No, you can't transfer an account's balance from one account to another account, nor can you use it to gift content to another account. If it's a newly redeemed card which you haven't yet used any of its balance then you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can move it over to the other account : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • Is it possible to transfer money from one account to another?

    Basically I just want to know if it's possible to transfer money (for like, downloading apps and stuff) from one account to another and, if it is possible, how. Thanks in advance.

    Not on your own. Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff to put it back onto the card; they'll only do this if none of the balance has been spent.

  • How to transfer music from one account to another through an iphone?

    Recently, I was able to get a brand new laptop. I was excited to finally be able to purchase my own music from my own iTunes account, but over the past few years, I'd been buying songs off of my family's shared iTunes account. How can I transfer the songs I purchased from there onto my new iTunes library with my individual account?

    I'm afraid you cannot transfer purchased items from one account to another: this is a limitation imposed by the copyright owners. However recent purchases from the iTunes Store are not DRM-protected so you may be able to play them anyway if you manually copy them across. You will need to drag the out of the original iTunes to a folder on the desktop, and then transfer that to your new Mac and drag them into iTunes there. Try it with a few there and see if it works.
    Should you have any movies, though, these cannot  be transferred.

  • Transfer app from one account to another with same SKU number

    Hi,
    I want to transfer a application from one account to another and i get this error:
    You cannot transfer apps with a App product ID that is the same as a product ID used by the recipient's app.
    The Apple ID for both applications is different.
    The only thing in common in the SKU number which i have to admit, is poorly chosen for both apps - 01.
    I don't want to re-submit my apps so i can choose a new SKU number for one of them.
    Is there any way i can transfer them ?
    I think you should be able to choose a new SKU number when you transfer to another account because your app is going to belong in a new inventory.
    Thanks

    Found the answer today from Apple:
    "It is not possible to transfer an app that has an identical SKU/product ID to another app on the recipient's account. If you would like the app to be distributed on the App Store through this specific account, you will need to remove it from sale, delete it from the current account, and then upload it as a new app in the new account. Deleting the app will enable you to use the app name in the new account.
    When you move the app to the new account, you will disable current customers from receiving automatic and free updates of your app. Also, all customer reviews, rating, and ranking information will be reset.
    Deleting an app permanently removes the app and any associated In-App Purchases from iTunes Connect. After the app has been deleted, you won’t be able to reuse your app name and SKU. Also, if you have uploaded a binary or enabled the app for the iAd Network, you won’t be able to reuse your Bundle ID.

  • Transfer money from one account to another one

    Hi all
    I am using EBS 11i, and i have the following modules: General Ledger, Account Payables and Cash Management.
    I have different bank accounts in the system and now we want to transfer money from one bank account to another one.
    How should i do this in the system. What type of document should i register to reflect this transfer. I know that it can be done by registering a journal with a clearing account and then reconcile this journal to the cash management module.
    My question is: Is possible to register in the payables module this kind of transactions. Can i solve this by registering payments in this module. On payment the supplier is mandatory, but i do not have any supplier in this case. I have a payment from a specific bank account and then a refund to the other bank account but not involving any specific supplier.
    Please advice if you have any suggestions.
    Thank you all and best regards

    Hi Ernest,
    This is what you can do.
    1) Whenever there are bank transfers, there is Cash-In in one account and Cash-Out from another account.
    2) When you enter the bank statements for these bank accounts, associate the transaction type codes of Misc Receipt and Misc Payment to these statements. Setup the bank transaction codes so that when you perform AutoReconciliation, the system creates Misc Receipts in AR for these statement lines. (You associate a Receivables activity with the transaction code).
    3) When you will run AutoRec, the Misc Receipt is created for the Bank account where funds are received and the Misc Receipt (with negative amount) which is equivalent to a Misc Payment is created for the Bank Account from where funds are transferred. The offset to the bank account is the clearing account in both entries which becomes zero at the end.
    4) With this workaround, there is no need to setup Dummy Supplier or run any payment process in AP.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Anil
