How can I merge iTune libraries?

I have a MacBook Pro and a Mac Pro tower. Each has iTunes 10. Each computer has its own iTunes music library. There is about 70 % overlap of music. How can I merge the libraries so they are the same on each computer? Many thanks for any help.

  • We just got married.  How can we merge accounts/libraries?

    We just got married, and each have a LARGE library of m4p's.  How can we merge accounts/libraries into one family account?

    To merge iTunes libraries, import the content and playlists from one to the other.
    iTunes Store accounts can't be merged.

  • How do I merge itunes libraries?

    How do I merge itunes libraries from two separate accounts?

    Why are you posting a second thread with the same question. This one isn't any clearer than your first post.
    What do you mean "merge itunes libraries from two separate accounts"? You have an iPod listed. Are you talking about getting music from two separate iTunes libraries on two separate computers? Are you talking about getting iTunes purchased music on a single iPod from two separate Apple/iTunes IDs?
    What is it that you are wanting to do? If you do not take the time to explain what it is you are wanting to accomplish, then you are not going to get the information you need to do it. We are not mind readers.

  • My old itunes account is connected to a defunct email account so I can't merge itunes libraries because I can't get into the old account,it used to be my mom's

    What can I do,I don't want to lose my libraries,both of them. The old ipod I had is dead,I have a new classic And want both libraries but I cannot access my old email,because it was my mom's account and I can't remember her old password and neither can she this account was made a long,long time ago,tried to get into the account to update it but forgot that password and it's all locked up now.So is there another way to verify my old email address? besides sending it an email I can't access? This is frustrating as anything.

    Forgot iPhone passcode can be done:
    1.Press down the Home and Power buttons on your iPhone until it shuts off.
    2.Connect it to your computer with the USB cable.
    3.Press and hold down the Home button.
    4.Hold it down until iTunes says your device is entering recovery mode.
    Then you can restore using iTunes.

  • How can I merge itunes accounts due to one being on a computer that no longer works?

    I have an account on an old computer that no longer works although we do have it backed up.  My other problem is that the original account is on the computer that does not work and is linked to an email address that was hijacked.  I can not get into that email account and therefor I can not change the email account that the original account is linked with.  My iphone was linked to this account and now I can not download apps because it says there was a problem with the payment source on a prior app.  I can't even figure out what the problem would have been because I can not access the old email account.

    Do you have iTunes match? You need a computer to manage an iTunes match library.

  • How can I "merge" itunes to one computer?

    Currently I have my apps backed up to one computer and everything else on another. I want to return the apps to the other computer but I am afraid to loose any new purchases. Can anyone help a non tech savvy person?

    You can transfer iTunes purchases by:

  • How can I combine itunes libraries for a shared music setup?

    I wanted multiple users on my computer to share the same itunes music folder and library. I put an itunes folder (with an itunes music folder and library data file inside the itunes folder) into the computer's shared folder. I set each users preferences to use the new shared music folder and copy their music to the new folder.I also used the option key on startup of itunes to point each user's itunes to the new shared library.
    I'm stumped on how to do one final thing: Is there a way for me to combine everyone's existing library data into the new shared library? In other words, I want all the folders that each user already created to be combined into the new library that everyone sees.

    I tried that first, but then you are just replacing one library data file with another, you're not combining them. But I just figured it out myself so my apologies for posting prematurely -- There is an 'add to library' choice under the file menu. You navigate to your original itunes music folder, choose it, and the library information associated with those songs was added to the new shared itunes music folder that my itunes app is now set up to use. Fortunately, I hadn't trashed the original music folder yet.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't merge accounts.
    You can however share or import content from another library/account using homesharing.

    I ahve two itunes accounts with different Apple ID's.  How can I merge them into one account?

    Apple has no provisions for this. You cannot merge multiple Apple ID's into one ID. Content is always tied to the Apple ID that was used to purchase it.

  • HT1918 I have 2 itunes ids. How can I merge the 2 email addresses. The site will not let me merge 2 existing email accounts

    I have 2 apple itunes ids. How can I merge the accounts into 1 user account? I have tried using both email accounts on a single itunes account but the site will not let me use 2 existing email accounts.
    Thanks

    You can't merge Apple IDs.
    And you also can't change the name of an iTS Apple ID to another one that ends in a me.com.

  • How can I merge libraries

    I have several iPhoto libraries. How can I merge them?

    Thanks, Terence ..when I've a while to spare, and can cope with the trepidation (..will it keep Albums organised? ..will it keep metadata? etc..) I'll have a try with Aperture (on a couple of teeny Libraries) and see what happens.
    For now, iPhoto Library Manager is doing the job PERFECTLY, and even copes gracefully with error messages and alerts from iPhoto - without seizing up, quitting, or giving up. VERY reliable .."I'm impressed.." (as Deckard says in Blade Runner).

  • After having to replace my hard drive most photos were lost, but luckily were on an external drive. Have copied the iphoto library to computer, but now there are two seperate libraries.  How can I merge them?

    How can I merge two Iphoto Libraries?

    If you have Aperture 3.3 or later and iPhoto 9.3 or later you can merge libraries with Aperture.
    Otherwise the only way to merge Libraries is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager

    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
