I am originally from the Uk but moved to South Africa. My iTunes account is therefore UK based with my Uk CC. Now that apple music is out, to be able to link to my wife and family I need a iTunes SA account. I have read that this isn't an issue but can I use the same email for two accounts.
Also when I go to upgrade to the next OS will the apps from the UK account be lost or can you link accounts?
Thanks!
iPhone 5s, iOS 8.4
iTunes accounts have to have unique primary email addresses, so you can only have one account per email address. As well as being tied to the account content is also tied to the country ; for apps you should be ok, to redownload them (though they'll may need to be in the South African store) you will need to find them in the store (they won't show in Purchased) and when you click on their price/'get' button your should (based on what other people have posted) get a prompt about having previously downloaded them would you like yo redownload it for free.
Whilst you are in South Africa you can only use the South African store, using the UK store whilst not here in the UK is a violation of the store's terms and Apple could permanently disable the account, you should update your account to have your SA address.

Thanks a million.
So I just set that up now - My question now is what about my icloud account? Do I need to set up a new one too? I have paid for extra memory and don't really want to have to pay for two accounts? whats the best way to solve this?
2 itunes accounts with same email?
