Two iCloud Accounts...?!

jimineycricket · Oct 16, 2011, 10:20 AM

Hello

Hopefully someone can shed some light on how to correct what I've done.

I updated my Macbook Pro to Lion and opened an iCloud account with the same email address I use for iTunes and I was given the obligatory 5GB of free space. I then updated my iphone to iOS5 and did the same, all seemed fine....

I then decided to update my desktop to Lion so that I can get everything synced up between my devices. When opening an iCloud account it asked me for my Mobile Me account details. I didn't even think that it would create a whole different iCloud account for me (which in hindsight was stupid). This new one has 25GB of storage which is great but obviously my computers aren't synced up!

Unforunately I'd prefer to have the first (5GB) iCloud account because that has my iTunes history which was the whole point of doing this in the first place.

I'd be grateful if somebody could give me an idea of how to get all my devices synced up please and have just the one iCloud account.

Thanks
J.
