Why do I have 2 different Apple ID's
Why do I have 2 different Apple ID's? And can I combine them to 1?
My iphone has an @me.com user account
My ipad has an @yahoo.com user account
I would like both to use the yahoo account
Thanks!
"Why do I have 2 different Apple ID's? "
Only you would know why you created two id's.
"And can I combine them to 1?"
No.
"I would like both to use the yahoo account"
Then use that account on both devices.

someone please tell me how to fix this. I cant access any apps or anything because my old apple id keeps showing up on my phone and wont show the new one.
You created a new AppleID?
Why not simply update your old AppleID so you have only one iTunes account? -

Why?
This will only create problems for you.
All iTunes pruchases are tied to the AppleID purchased with.
Just use the old AppleID. You can update it if needed. -
I have 2 different apple ida 1 on pc and 1 on iPad help

Why do you have two ids?
Sync your ipad with your computer. -
We've had our MBP for a year, set up with my Apple ID. Got an iPad recently and set up with husband's Apple ID. Would now like to sync the two and set up iCloud/PhotoStream between the two. How to do since have two different Apple IDs? Thanks!
Just out of curiosity, why did you elect to use a different id?. That seems to always make things difficult. If you have not had the pad for long, or have not bought a lot of stuff Nader the new id, you might want to think about erasing all content, turn off find my phone, wiping the pad and starting over.
You can sync 2 different ids ( at least move pictures, books and music back and forth) if you are syncing through I tunes on your computer, but I don't think you can cross feed I cloud streams. -
How come I have 2 different Apple Store Apps on iPad mini?
i Noticed that for some reason I have 2 different Apple Store apps on my iPad mini. I think this may have somehow happened when I upgraded to iOS 8.3.
One has has image of shopping cart the other has image of I guess a shopping bag. Not sure why the newer one didn't just replace the older one.
I Guess the one w the shopping bag is the newer one & it looks like it only retained orders for the last 18 mo, saying I have none.
I Wasn't wxpecting that it would lose the prior history, including purchase info for this iPad mini & my MacBookPro.
THe one w the shopping cart image seems to just refer to the newer 1 asking to go there. Don't see any other options. Confused by this.
IOs 8.3TTry re-reading my post. Apparently the one showing the shopping cart is the old Apple Store app.
Both of them I was asking about say Apple store--not App Store. TThat is a separate app.
& Actually in the past, when there was an Apple Store more conveniently located to where I lived, I was able to use the Apple Store app to make in-store purchases at the brick & mortar Apple Store.
i Never tried using it for online purchases. But in CA there were 2 Apple stores w in about 15 min drive of where I lived. Not so in the Portland, OR area. Well, downtown might be 15 min away & then expensive parking or taking public transportation.
this seems to have happened when I upgraded to iOS 8.3. -
My family owns 3 computers, how can we share, or better yet, centralize our music when we have 3 different Apple ID?
How can we sync all 3 computers music content on itunes Match? Even when only one purchases music?Welcome to the Apple Community.
To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud.
You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photosstream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
If only one of you purchases content from iTunes (this includes Books and apps too) then I suggest you use that account for each of you for iTunes only. -

I have 3 different apple devices (iPod Touch, iPad and MacBook Pro) using the same Apple ID and would like to use FaceTime to call from one device to the other. Do I need a different Apple ID for one of the devices in order to do that?
I found this on a related question in the Community:
Yes you can do it. I do it with 4 different devices all using the same Apple ID.
You need to associate different email addresses for each device in order to use those email addresses as the "contact at" email address. The reason the calls are dropping on you now is that what you are trying to do is like calling yourself on your own phone.
You can also create new iCloud accounts on each device simply to use for FaceTime, but I'm guessing that the users of the other two devices have their own email addresses which will make this work for you quite easily.
Take a look at this for more information.
The seems to go against what Gail said and the issue you raised about buying dup apps was my first concern. If this other post is correct, how to I set a different "contact at" in the iPod Touch?

I have a different Apple id on my PowerBook from that on my iMac and iPad. Photo Stream does not connect to my Powerbook. How do I change the Apple id in iCloud on my PowerBook? Will this link all 3 machines to PhotoStream?
You can't simply change the details.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button) -
Hi, I have numerous different Apple products, an iphone 5c, iPad mini and iPod touch 5th gen.
I have had them all for only relatively short periods of time yet the lightning cable has stopped working on all of them?
On the touch, charging has stopped completely?
Is this a manufacturing issue with the new charging system?Hi, yes I'm using the original apple cables.
This definitely isn't user error nor confined just to me, the devices are used by different people in the home.
On a quick sample around the office (survey of 7 people let me add) 4 of them said the cables had broken on them and had to be replaced.
Having also searched through the forums it appears this is a fairly widespread issue.
It's defo not user error! -
If I have several different apple email accounts, how can I merge them under one email so that I can use it on multiple devices?
BuckeyeNative wrote:

you can't.
... so that I can use it on multiple devices?
a single iTunes can be authorized for up to five iTunes store accounts (Apple IDs). a library thusly set up will sync content purchased with any of the five Apple IDs to any device.
