Aloha, I am trying to add previous music purchases linked to another email address to my current Music account on my MacBook Pro

Aloha, I am trying to add previous music purchases from an old iTunes account to my current Music account on my MacBook Pro. To make it more complicated, both accounts have different email addresses.

Any ideas?

Hello TopMonkeyG,


We understand that you want to download previous purchases from another Apple ID account, and we'd like to go over some information.


Just to confirm, do you use Family Sharing? If you do currently use Family Sharing, are both of the accounts part of the family group? If so, the "How to download previous purchases from family members" part of the link you came from may help.


You can find more information about redownloading music purchased from the iTunes Store here: Redownload music


We hope that helps. Take care!
