I usually try and avoid posting computer questions on here so please forgive me. I have tried to have a look on Apple forums, however snarky little s\*\*\*s, have annoyed me. My wife recently updated her Ipad2 Ios5, I have telling her about cloudy goodness and tbh she was underwhelmed by the whole idea. But i persisted and now we have a problem… Like most people who started using Itunes and Apple products her Apple ID is a [Hotmail.com](http://Hotmail.com) address, registered long before MobileMe was even a twinkle in Steves eye. However she also has a MobileMe account. Unless im being stupid, is there no way to combine the two? So that she uses the cloud as MobileMe but doesnt loose her purchased content, I tried changing the adress in account settings but it seems once you have MobileMe there is already an account set up, which has no content attatched… Damn you APPLE! ---
