which email addr for my apple id?

Question

which email addr for my apple id?

I'm confused which of my email addrs Apple uses for my ID. I have an old email addr which Apple has retained for its Store, but I have a new email addr which Apple has accepted for my iCloud account. I want to consolidate the two accounts so I have only the new email addr for both. I've tried to use the Change Password process & have asked for Apple to send its present acct info for me, but after half an hour or more, no email from Apple to help me. Any advice?

Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Apple does not merge Apple ID accounts. Not for anyone. Ever.

What you should have done was keep the old Apple ID and just changed the primary email address associated with that ID and then continued to use it for iTunes and also use it for iCloud. But unfortunately, if you have used the new email address for your new Apple ID, then it is too late to do that and there isn't much anyone can really do now to assist you with this.
