Q: Transferring digital copies between iTunes accounts

Hi

 

I have recently set up my own iTunes account, but digital copies of films I have got in the past are on my old account & the redeeming codes won't let me download them again. Does anyone know if its possible to transfer digital copies between iTunes accounts?

 

If not, is there any way I can get these films on my iPad that's linked to my new account?

 

Any advice anyone can give me will be helpful. Cheers.

    It's not possible to transfer 'normal' iTunes purchases between accounts, and I assume that the same thing applies to digital copies. You should be able to copy them onto the computer that you sync the iPad from, authorise that account on it (via the Store > Authorise This Computer menu option in iTunes), add them to its iTunes (File > Add To Library), and then sync them to your iPad
