Let me know what happens. I give it a 50% chance but you are the pioneer on this quest.
Apropos I have come across a giant bug in Apple. The program Facetime (a Skypish communications app) requires a unique email address in order to login. The Apple store and Apple web support requires a unique Apple ID. Hence if you have several Apple ID's that contain the same email address, then Facetime will give an error stating you have duplicate email addresses.
According to Apple support, the introduction of unique email addresses to Facetime has caused problems for Apple User ID...that means it is a known bug. The work around is to identify all the Apple User ID's with the same email address and go change the address field to something else. There is no way to merge Apple User ID accounts. In addition - BIG WARNING HERE - changing the primary email address in another Apple ID will automatically change the Apple ID to that primary email address.
This is a classic case of poor design in not understanding the value of a KEY in a database. If you form a relationship between two KEYS that create a conflict (i.e., Facetime duplicate email will not proceed to login) then you need to change to complimentary KEY relationship. Ahh what can I say, it aint like the '80's.
