Transferring contact & cal info between Apple ID accounts

I had an account for iDisk before Apple introduced the iCloud.  At that time, they were using just mac.com email names and passwords.  Now when I log onto iCloud it asks me for my Apple ID and it takes me to the iCloud, but none of my information is on it.  How do i tranfer my contact info and cal info from my old account to my new acct? 

You are just one year too late. Now all content is lost to you. Idisk was lost back a year ago, but other info could have been moved back then. As far as I know Apple was sending reminder emails about move since January of 2012.

  • Can things in the icloud be shared between apple id accounts?

    I would like to add my iphone and my wifes iphone to icloud.  If we each have our own apple id, will we be able to share our photos
    between accounts, or would it be better to have one apple id and place both of our devices under the one account?  If we do this, is it possible to keep things like contacts separate, or will they be merged on both devices.
    Basically, how can I utilize the icloud to share some stuff and also keep other stuff separate or individualized.
    Thanks,
    John Post

    I might be very ignorant on this but I think you can not share some things only within the same apple ID account in multiple devices.
    In address book you can try to create groups, one for each user - but you both are still sharing all contacts anyway...
    I also don't think you can share info from the iCloud from two different apple ID's.

  • Can I share contacts and notes between two iCloud accounts without sending every contact/note?

    My wife and I have been sharing my iCloud account which is very convenient because we automatically get the same calendar, contacts and notes on our devices.  If I were to put her on a separate iCloud account, can we automatically share our contacts and notes without having to send every single one every time a change is made?  I understand that the calendars can be shared fairly easily with family sharing but the others may be more problematic.

    David,
    Thanks for the reply.  That's how I set it up originally.  Although the new iOS 7 update lost some functionality.  I found the following on the TUAW website.  The Safari Bookmarks and Find My Phone options have been removed from the secondary iCloud accounts options.  This is the problem.  Everything worked great before we updated.  I guess "new way" consolidates the iCloud accounts better with Maverick?  Now I will have extra documents on my phone that I don't need.  We will both have to share the same iCloud storage and backup space too.  Have to try it out and see how it works. Thanks.

  • Transferring purchases to a new apple ID account?

    I just purchased a MobileMe account with apple and would like to use it as my new apple ID with purchases via the iTunes store.
    Thing is, i have ALOT of purchased music through my old apple ID.. i tried to go in the account settings and update the email address, but i received a response telling me that my MobileMe email address cannot be used to replace the existing email, as the MobileMe account has its own apple ID in its own right.
    I want to purchase music with my new Apple ID, but will i loose all my purchased music on my old account? can i have music across 2 apple ID's synced in with my iPhone and iPod's??
    Thanks in advance
    -Coshy

    Sorry to hijack your thread, however I am having an issue because I have changed IDs and now I can't play some of the music I purchased. Last year I changed my apple ID, however I didn't notice until today that I can't play music purchased with my old ID. When I attempt to play a song purchased under my old ID, I am prompted to authorize this machine (I have changed computers since I changed my ID as well), however when I enter my password, it gets rejected because it no longer exists. Am I up a creek, can I add a new account using my old ID, or is there something Apple can do???
    Thanks in advance for any help with this issue.

  • Need help mapping Exchange info to Apple Mail account setup

    I need a little help mapping the Exchange settings I have from my IT department to the fields used by Apple Mail for an Exchange mailbox. It's not clear whether Apple Mail is really using the Exchange protocols or POP. The names have been changed to protect the innocent.
    From my IT department:
    Outlook web access (OWA): server.mycompany.com
    Exchange server: exchg.server.mycompany.com
    Exchange domain: EXCHG
    Incoming mail (POP/IMAP): inserver.mycompany.com
    Outgoing mail (SMTP): outserver.mycompany.com
    Exchange proxy setting: exproxy.mycompany.com
    Apple Mail 3.3:
    Incoming mail server: Should this be exchg.server.mycompany.com or inserver.mycompany.com ?
    User name: Should this be the userid that I use for https Outlook Web Access (OWA) login?
    Outgoing mail server: outserver.mycompany.com
    Outlook web access server: Should this be exproxy.mycompany.com ?
    The Apple Mail fields for "incoming mail server" and "outgoing mail server" suggest that it's not really using the Exchange protocols so what does it do with the "Outlook Web Access Server" information??
    Thanks in advance. I hope this thread is useful to others!

    Create the mail account as "IMAP" and use these server settings:
    Incoming mail (POP/IMAP): inserver.mycompany.com
    Outgoing mail (SMTP): outserver.mycompany.com
    User name: Should this be the userid that I use for https Outlook Web Access (OWA) login?
    It should be the username in Active Directory, typically in the form "domain\usershortname" or "usershortname@fqdn_domain". Don't mix up the Active Directory domain with the mail domain! If not set up different, this should be the same credentials you use to authenticate for Outlook Web Access.

  • Can you set up an itunes acount for 3 iphones that wont share all contacts and info between them

    im having trouble understanding itunes adding songs is a pain and when we conect another phone it erases and gives you what the last person had and ther contacts

    On a Windows machine:-
    Hold the shift button down when you double click to open iTunes, it will ask if you want to create a new library, do so for each device you want to sync.
    Hold the shift button down each time you launch iTunes and choose the library you wish to load.
    I am sure someone will come along and fill you in on how to do the same thing on Mac. For the life of me I can not remember

  • Can i transfer purchases between apple ID's?

    well, i used to have an apple ID (2 years ago) and i purchased lots of apps from it, (about $70 worth of apps), but now, the credit card of it has expired and i have a new ID, and want to recover my apps, but authorize them from the new account, is that possible? (i still have the password and ID of the old account)
    and the old account is not registered in my name and the card isnt even mine..

    No, Apple will not transfer apps between Apple ID accounts. So if the old account in actuality was not yours, then the copies of the apps were not yours legally. To continue with the apps you would need to buy the licenses to use them in your name with your own account and bank card.

  • Family account for contacts but with same apple ID - iCloud use

    Hi, I am writing to ask what the best way to setup a multiple contacts account using the same apple ID for iCloud.  My wife and I both use the same apple ID for our iPhones as well as our iMac and iPad.  I would like to be able to have my contacts on my iPhone and iPad and have my wife's contacts on her iPhone (and obviously having both our contacts on our iMac for backup and reference).  I have read some forums suggesting creating a "family" apple ID accout for some iCloud stuff where I could have my contacts linked to and then having our existing apple ID for her to use.  We share calenders, downloaded apps/purchases and some Documents and Data (Money app) - all of which I would like to keep the way I have described.  I would just like to be able to have my contacts and her contacts separate for iCloud purposes.  I read something about the primary and second account settings in the Mail/Contacts/Calenders but it isn't very clear.  I seem to
    I have yet to venture creating such another apple ID account as I don't really know how to go about doing it. 
    Thanking you in advance,

    Much easier to manage if you each have your own AppleIDs and computer logins.
    You can easily share contacts and calendars through iCloud while still keeping them separate.
    You keep this AppleID.
    She creates a new one and adds it on her iPhone in Setttings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars
    These are your primary iCloud accounts
    Now each of you go to Setttings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars and add an iCloud account.
    Add the other's account (as a secondary iCloud account). You can select to use Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Bookmarks, Notes, Find My iPhone.
    I have my daughter's iCloud account this way and I use Contacts, Calendars, Reminders. This way I can view or update her info from my iPhone/computer.

  • If I delete my Apple ID account, will my pictures, music, contacts, etc. also be deleted?

    Whenever I try to download or update an app, whether the app is free or not, a message saying that my Billing Information  is incorrect pops up. I go to it and the credit card information is under a nonworking credit card. I do not have the option "None" to select under Payment Information, so I am stuck with this credit card information but cannot download or update any apps. I was wondering if it is best to delete my current Apple ID account and create a new one in order to abandon this credit card, but I don't won't to lose my contacts, pictures, music, etc. Please help!

    Do you have another card you can use? If not, I believe you can switch to the "none" payment option if you edit your billing info on a computer. Scroll down in this article to the bit where it talks about using a Mac or PC to edit your info: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1918
    There is a link for what to do if "none" doesn't show up also.
    Everything in your current Apple ID is permanently connected to it (though you could export contacts & calendar info if needed; apps, music, books, and other purchases are stuck), so you only want to change if you have no other options.

  • HT204150 can you share icloud contacts between 2 icloud accounts?

    Can you share your address book/contacts between 2 icloud accounts? My wife and i have seperate icloud accounts but want to be able to update and access all the same contacts. How can we do it?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    The way to achieve that would be for one of you to login to the older ones account in settings> mail, contacts, calendars on their device. They could then enable contact synchronisation in that secondary account and disable contact synchronisation in their own primary account at settings> iCloud.

  • I've an apple ID used to buy off iTunes and a mobileme account for the calendars and contacts. How can I move the calendars and contacts to the older apple ID and use it for iCloud?

    I've an apple ID used to buy off iTunes and a mobileme account for the calendars and contacts. How can I move the calendars and contacts to the older apple ID and use it for iCloud?

    If you remeber the password to that Apple ID then follow these steps
    1 - Make sure you have an email address that is NOT an Apple ID
    2 - Go to AppleID.Apple.com
    3 - Where it reads Manage Apple ID - Sign in
    Once you are signed in want to make sure the email address you are wanting to use is NOT set up as a "Recovery/Rescue" email for this account.
    [To check this - Main page where you see Primary ID - below do you see the email address you want to use listed towards the bottom? Yes - Delete / No - Good ./. If made any adjustments "Save" Next on the left select "Password & Security" - Answer your security questions you set up "if you have any" then scroll towards the bottom and check to see if you see the email address you want to use. Yes - Delete / No - Good] <-> Also you can change your password on this page as well. Any adjustments made "Save"
    Once this is done go back to the main page where you should read "Primary ID" and change the email address that is showing to the new email address youo want. "Save" Done
    I learned this not to long ago and worked for me. Hope this helps you!

    Use separate Apple IDs for each family member and use Family Sharing features of those things (if any) that you do want to share. https://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/

    I have added a new email address but kept my Id, but I get busy when trying from iPhone to iPad as they are clashing. Like find my iPhone app hence trying to keep them all on one account

    IOS: using facetime http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4319
    using an ipad will use the email address since you can't make a phone call.  see the link.
    Your basically calling/emailing yourself that's why your getting a busy signal.

  • HT1918 My name is Paul Augsburger I have had several issues with my account and they are now fixed with one exception,  I have two Apple ID accounts, and I would like to combine them. Please contact me at pra1949 (at) me (dot) com for further information.

    Please contact me at pra1949 (at) me (dot) com for any further contact I don not monitor the suelefriends (at) gmail (dot) com email.
    I have had several iisues with my Apple ID accounts and spent many hours at the APPLE store in Richmond Va. getting them fixed. The technician was wonderful, patient and very knowlegeable, however he was not able to complete the task and said I needed to contact Apple support for the final step. During the process of fixing things I ended up with two APPLE ID accounts. my main accout is suelefriends (at) gmail (dot) com and the second account is "pra1949 (at) me (dot) com" I have most of my apps tied to the main account with only a few to the pra1949 account. I also have $25 worth of credit on the pra1949 account. Because of the two accounts it still makes updating apps very confusing and very cumbersome. I would like to have the two accounts merged so I end up with one account with all the money and APPS tied to it, that way I only need one password to update. I hope this is possible.

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here and they don't monitor these forums - I've asked the hosts to remove yout account ids from your post.
    In terms of combining accounts it's not currently possible to do so, nor to copy/transfer content from account to another.
