Disassociate Apple ID

Hi. I have two Apple IDs: one is associated to my current iPhone but the other one is associated to an email address that I have no longer access to.


My iTunes account is associated to my old Apple ID. I do not know my password, so cannot download from the App Store and cannot get a password reset link, because I cannot access that old email account.


How can I transfer the purchases currently associated with my old Apple ID to my current one?


Please let me know.

Kind regards,


María.

You cannot transfer purchases from one ID to another, you will need to get the old account working. It is a pity you didn't maintain the ID because it may be difficult to get it working again.
