Why do I have 2 different @me accounts on my mac
Hi,
I have recently bought an iPad. Was trying to set up iCloud today and was asked to create an @me.com email address (I usually use my gmail account as my apple ID). When I went on to my mac I realised that was linked to a different @me.com email address that I must have created previously.
Both are linked to my gmail apple I'd
Is there any way I can merge them into one or delete one?
Have tried myself but no luck so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated :D
Thanks!!
You might wish to check exactly what accounts you do have.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.

i have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?
i had one for a long time, then when i got the ipad i didn't realize they would all still work under one so i set up the second one on that
then when i got the new iphone i put in the info for the first and main one from my mac pro and it would not work at all, and i knew it was right, then it asked me to create a new one or i couldnt finish the setup
hence why i have 3 now
hard to believe you cannot combine into one
oh well, i will just make them all accessible for all 3
thanks -
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. -
My husband and I have two different tastes in music....do we have to have two different itunes accounts, or can we somehow share the account (itunes cards, credit card....payment options) but have two different setups??? How does this affect things if you use icloud??
confused....
thanks for the help.
DanielleIf it is in your itunes on your computer, then select it to sync just like everything else that you sync.
The music must be on your computer.
iTunes: Understanding Home Sharing -
I have a computer at home which is used by 5 family members. Each of us have a separate user in the MacBook. Can each of us have a different iCloud account to sincronize with each of our iPhones or once you download the iCloud for one of us, no other iCloud will be added to the same laptop?
Many thanks.Hi Valeriano009,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
You are already on the right track with 5 individual user accounts on your computer. Please be sure to back up your main Apple ID account before making any changes below.
The article below will explain in more detail ... but it sounds like you will want to create a separate Apple ID for each member of your family to keep their contacts, calendars, Photo Stream etc. separate.
If your family has made a lot of iTunes Store purchases, you can stay signed in to your current Apple ID to have access to them. Or your family members can start fresh with their own iTunes Store purchases. Please review the Frequently Asked Questions section in this article:
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
Each member of your family should log into their own user account on the computer, and then click on the link below to create their unique Apple ID.
Apple - My Apple ID
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Make sure that the email address you want to use for your Apple ID meets these conditions:
The email address is one that you use regularly, because it will be the primary email address for your Apple ID.
The email address is not associated with any other Apple ID.
The email address is not an iCloud email address, which is already an Apple ID. iCloud email addresses end with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com.
If each family member is currently using the old Apple ID for their iCloud account on their devices, they will need to follow these steps:
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
Before you delete the old iCloud account from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, turn off each of the features ( contacts, calendars, etc. ) and when prompted, choose to "Keep on My iPhone" if you wish to keep that information. If your family member doesn't need or want any of this information, then skip down to the selection below to delete the iCloud account completely.
Turn iCloud features off
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then tap to turn off iCloud features.
When you turn off a feature, you’re asked whether you want your device to keep a copy of your information stored in iCloud for that feature.
Once you have saved the contacts, calendars, etc. that you want from the current iCloud account on your family member's iPhone, then you can delete the old iCloud account from their device.
Turn off iCloud completely
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
At this point, I would suggest turning off the device, and restarting it. Then, tap on Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Tap on Add Account. Tap iCloud. Now type in your family member's new Apple ID email address and password.

I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

Is there any way to have 2 different itunes accounts on one computer?
I am trying to find out if you can have two different itunes accounts on one computer. My boyfriend and I both have the iphone 4 but we share a computer. Is it possible to have two accounts on one laptop? And if so, how do i do it?
Hi, Angela, Take a look here:
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer.
That should help. If you are referring to iTunes Store accounts, yes, you can have up to five iTunes Store accounts on a single system.

Can I have 2 different iTunes accounts on the one computer
Can I have 2 different iTunes accounts on the one Mac computer
Yes. If you mean Apple IDs, log in and out as needed. If you mean iTunes libraries, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and choose or create one, or use separate Windows user accounts.

I have 2 different itunes accounts and want to combine them. How do I do that without loosing prior purchases on either account?
Open the Mac App Store and try purchasing Mountain Lion 10.8. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU with at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

I have two different iCloud accounts - business and personal. I can't sign into Photo Stream with my personal account because it says my business account is my primary account. They are separate but equal accounts. I have tried deleting the iCloud account from my iPhone, then my MacBook Pro and signing in again on both devices. The iPhone says that my primary account ismy personal account (which is good) but my MacBook Pro still will not sign into that account so I can use Photo Stream.
Any suggestions? This iCloud stuff is getting annoying.you have a ps cs4 license for mac and you have some way of finding your serial number.
if yes, download an install the installation file. if you already have the installation file, what is its name and file extension? (eg, if it's one file, it should be a dmg file.)
if you need the installation file,
