Oh David. You had my hopes high. I was hoping there was a way to merge. I am already sharing two IDs. I was hoping to recover a closed Apple ID. How do you get folders in alpha order in notes. I can only seem do organize the sub folders. Wen I add folders, they are all over the place.
I did family sharing few years ago because at one point I had 2 IDs for 2 iPhones (work and personal at the time). Now my family needs the “extra” person to accommodate my kids. Any work around without losing my purchases?
But, how do you manage multiple IDs when you are an expat ? Family is only when you are in the same country. Expats are forced to get ids due to apps availability in different regions. It is a dilemma I have since ever
You can just sign in App Store with another Apple ID, it won’t affect your iCloud and main apple id from your device. The pain comes in when you want to setup a child account with your primary Apple id which is another region as your child can’t log out and sign in with another account to download apps like we do using this method. It is currently a pain
Thanks for the video! The challenge with this solution is that, if I am not wrong, any purchases from that point on, will be charged to the credit card under the family organizer. If Apple one day allows to each individual, under that family, buy their own content with their personal cc and then share the content within the family, it would be excellent.
This whole Apple ecosystem is the worst. I thought Apple is supposed to be easy for people who aren't computer savvy. I've never witnessed a more complicated mess of nonsense where absolutely everything you want to do is completely dependent on some "icloud" identity. You can only have one account associated with an iphone or ipad? Why? My wife is Japanese. She has a Japanese Apple ID. Consequently, it's a constant battle to do things like add her to my family group and make things work correctly. There's always some stupid issue as to why some feature is not working properly. Then if she wants an app that's only in the US Apple store. Sorry, you need to change the region for your entire Apple account and therefore lose complete access to your Japanese Apple store apps/subscriptions. I hate Apple and their entire line of bullshit devices.
So frustrating. I made these two different IDs mistakenly. It’s been years and now I can’t use what I pay for on my phone on my iPad. After all the money I spend on apple products this should be an option

how do you send the invitation to the old Apple ID if you no longer have access to the old email address?
“ I have two Apple IDs, and I need to switch between them sometimes. Hopefully, Apple will add a switch account option in iOS 18.”

I don't think they ever claimed to be "easier." Just different.
Great video … Can you make a video on how to transfer google photos to another google photos account. Thank you

Thank you!!
Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. Somehow, Apple recognized the other Apple ID was me and was told that I was already a member of the family.
So can I be in my iPhone if and log into among us with my iPads id
That sounds very inconvenient
I’ve done this about a year ago and none of my purchases show up
THANKS ❤
This is so complicated
Don’t have a Mac.
This video is a joke. This isn’t merging two Apple ID’s this a a workaround. Clickbait garbage…
