iCloud account

I want to create a new iCloud account, but my current iCloud is connected to many other services,(steam, The New York Times, masterclass, and many more)

is there a way I can transfer all of the accounts over to a new iCloud account?

Hello Bob13the1st,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. 


We understand that you want to create another Apple ID and you use your other Apple ID to sign in to some other services. We are happy to help.


While you can create a new Apple ID, you cannot merge Apple IDs. Here’s how to create a new Apple ID: How to create a new Apple ID - Apple Support

"Create your Apple ID on another device

To create your Apple ID on an Apple TV, Android device, smart TV, or streaming device, you can usually follow the steps provided onscreen and enter your full name, date of birth, an email address or phone number, and a payment method. If you set up the Apple TV app on your smart TV, you might be redirected to activate.apple.com to create your Apple ID. You can also use the steps below to create your Apple ID on the web.

Create your Apple ID on the web

  1. Go to appleid.apple.com and click Create Your Apple ID.
  2. Follow the onscreen steps to provide an email address, create a strong password, and set your device region. The email address that you provide will be your new Apple ID.*
  3. Enter a phone number that you can always access.
  4. Check the boxes to subscribe to Apple Updates if you'd like. This keeps you up to date on the latest news, software, products, and services from Apple.
  5. Click Continue.
  6. Follow the onscreen steps to verify your email address and phone number. 

After you verify your email address, you can use your new Apple ID to sign in to the iTunes Store and other Apple services such as iCloud."
