No. It is not possible.
Sorry.
At this time the simple answer is no. There are articles on Apple's forums stating this fact.
If you are like me, you have one apple id created pre-mobileme for use in iTunes and now the app store and then a second from an either purchased MobileMe or recently registered iCloud account. If you are running iOS 5 you are able to sync your iCloud to one Apple id and your App Store to another.
A workaround that basically says, we (Apple) know there is a problem but my guess is due to legal reasons (music companies, etc.) they are unable at this time to allow users to merge accounts.
If you have purchases on both accounts you will have to pick one to use going forward at this time.
Hope this helps.
it Almost helps.
it's a definitive answer. that helps.
but it demonstrates that Apple didn't quite think through the consequences of iCloud before rolling it out.
SIGH.
agreed.
Absolutely agreed
