[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1898364, member: 396914"] The key to getting it all in one account seems to be that both the login name and the login password need to be identical, even to capitalization, on both the old and new accounts. I don't know why it didn't work for you, but if you are confident that EVERYTHING you need is in the new account, you can always delete the old one and then let the system delete all the data associated with that old account. Frankly, with the other issues with Safari, Google mail and the other account, you might be better served by resetting back to factory and migrating again, as Lisa suggested. Yes, it's a real pain, but you may be struggling with these issues you are having for a long time, so the short investment in pain may well be worth it overall. [/QUOTE]
