How can I view my daughter's iTunes library and have it download to my iTunes library?

I have a lot of Apple devices and also Apple IDs (too many created mostly accidentally over time) but when I bought my daughter her iPod, I created her own Apple ID. I only recently allowed her to download some new music and videos as a reward to her and now I wish I had them in my iTunes LIbrary so I can have them on myiPhone, on my iMac, Apple TV or iPad.  I didn't want her to have access to my Apple ID on her iPod and felt limiting it by creating her own account with a PW only I know (so she cannot download anything unless I do it) would create the controls I wanted. I have logged out of my ID and then into hers as I am in the iTunes application, but don't knwo where I can ask it to "transfer purchases made on this iPod to my iTunes Library".  Home sharing will not work since as I just read you can only use one Apple ID to have that work.
What is the best way for families or people with numerous accounts to share music and other apps., etc., bought with many Apple IDs?
I wish they made it as a "sub account" of my main one and then they all where part of a sort of directory tree so that all music bought under sub directories was owned and automatically transferred to the main account.  Could this be done?

On your iOS device:
Settings > Music > turn Show ALl Music off
This will hide purchases that are not locally on your device.
In iTunes create a Playlist with just your music and sync only that playlist.

    What country are you in ? Depending upon what country that you are in then you might be able to redownload them on your Mac's iTunes via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the iTunes store homepage
    If you're not in a country where TV programmes can be redownloaded then connect the iPad to your Mac's iTunes and use the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over from your iPad

    The NEF file only gives a little "nef" icon.  i was able to convert the NEF to DNG on the old computer and then brought the files over to the new computer.  On the old computer, the NEF files were depicted as little jpeg's so I would be able to see a picture of what each file represented.  On the new computer, both the NEF files and the DNG files are depicted with icons, "nef" or "dng", but not as little pictures.  On the new computer, though, I am to import the DNG's into Adobe and edit them so that is working regardless of whether or not a picture is present for the icon of each file.  I've downloaded the DNG converter from Adobe and will try the conversion directly on the new computer when I get home from work.  I do appreciate your responses and will let you know how it works.
    I am curious then, since right now the files are represented by little "nef"'s and little "dng"'s: If I also download the viewNX (spelling might be wrong, sorry) from nikon, do you know if that maintains the file as a RAW format file but allows a picture representation of the RAW file for the icon?  (That would make it easier to choose which RAW files I would choose to edit and which to not even bother with as an initial culling if that makes sense.
    Cheers.

  • How can I delete EVERY THING off my Mac and have it like new?

    There are sites that I've viewed and programs I have downloaded that I NEED to delete completely from my computer!! Ie: Friends telling me that a program is free and has no viruses, but it does! Sites forwarded that are supposed sfw, but are not!!
    I would like to DELETE EVERY THING off the computer and have it be like new.
    I remember on my Dell PC if I hit f8 or f11 (can't remember which one) a screen would appear and if I chose option "Dell Factory Image Restore" it would DELETE EVERY THING off of the computer and have it like new - as if you just got it from Dell.
    Is there anything like that for Macs?
    Whether it be some where on the computer already?
    Or if it's with the CDs that came with the Mac?

  • How can i tidy up folders in windows explorer and have the new names etc recognized by itunes?

    Sorry if this has been asked before, but I have spent quite a while searching how to do this...
    For example: In Windows Explorer, 2 different R.E.M. cd's have come up as different artists names, R.E.M and R.E.M_
    Although in iTunes they are both displayed correctly, there are many, many other examples.
    One more - a Celtic Box set with 4 cd's... 1-3 are in a 'Various' folder, and cd 4 is in a 'Compilation' folder.
    It's not the end of the world, but it's driving me a bit mad, as my ocd is starting to kick in!!
    Does anyone have any tips please?
    Thanks in advance

  • How can I create a custom field in contacts and have it appear in ICal?

    How can I create a custom field in contacts (death date) and have it appear in calendar?

    By default, iTunes convert files to type AAC which has an extension of .m4a
    For iTunes to recognize them as Audiobook files, the extension needs to change from .m4a to .m4b
    This can be done a number of different ways. Here are 2 (beginner and advanced)
    . simply, by renaming each file from windows explorer
    . more complex, by using Start/Run/cmd to get a "DOS" type window,
    using the command "cd" to change to the directory that your files are in
    and entering "ren *.m4a *.m4b"

  • How can I get Configurator off my work PowerMac and have my ipad, ipod4 controlled by my macbook pro from home?

    Hi, I put apple configurator on my work machine which has all my itunes, my entire Apple Macintosh History on it and used apple configurator thinking it would be a great way to sync all my devices. I get it now, that it doesn't do that for the private person but is really for an institution or employer. Be that as it may I threw away the app from my main computer and thought I would be done with it.
    I just reinstalled apple configurator and thought I took all devices off it. My ipad disappeared from the itunes menu. I plugged my ipad back into my machine and Paulz Config reappeared. I need to get this off my work PowerMac and have my ipad, ipod4 controlled by my macbook pro from home. And does it matter if I use the same email address that's listed with my power mac at work to easily switch the dominant mac over to my home from work. Things can get dicey at work and I don't want my life tied to the work power mac anymore. Thanks, Paul I realize there are a ton of questions in this. I am gratefull if I can just get the apple config off everything.

    To completely remove Apple Configurator from a Mac, you need to delete the application along with the following:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.configurator.
    You may also want to delete the contents of ~/Library/Keychains and /var/db/lockdown to remove the Supervision Certificate, public and private keys and device pairing information. NOTE: There are other things in Keychains that you may or may not want to delete. Google "keychains" to learn more about what's in that folder.
    Good luck!

    Brilliant! That worked like a charm.
    I created a new User Account on one of my Macs and logged into it. I connected my iPhone to its iTunes and checked my iPhone's Sync Contacts option in iTunes. Since that account's address book was basically empty (two dummy contacts, one for Apple and one for this new user), I ended up with only those two Contacts on the phone. Then, going back to my real User account (which does not have syncing turned on in iTunes) the phone synced nicely with the MobileMe account and populated the phone with all the MobileMe contacts and groups.

  • I just received £60 in iTunes cards and have paid these into my iTunes account and it is showing I have £60 credit. How do I use this to pay for music I want to purchase

    I received £60 worth of vouchers to be used on iTunes. I have scratched off the numbers on each card and it has credited my account to the value of £60. I wish to purchase music online and I would like to know how do I pay it from my credited amount of £60.

    One your account is credited, anything you download, including music, apps, videos etc. will be paid for using the money you have added. Your debit card will not be charged at all until you start purchasing things after the credit has ran out. There are many ways to check your current credit balance. Happy spending!

  • How can I hyperlink pages between multiple indd docs, and have them work in a pdf?

    Ok, this is confusing, so I'm going to try to be as clear as possible. I'm using InDesign CS6.
    I am working on a catalog, over 500 pages, which is split into several smaller indd files.
    I need to end with one single pdf of the whole catalog, with links to different pages. For example, there's an index in the back, a TOC in the front, and various "related product" type references throughout the catalog which I would like to have the page numbers as clickable links.
    When I try just linking to the different docs, either clicking it in the pdf opens the indd file (not helpful) or nothing happens at all (even less helpful). So I assume there must be a trick to it. Or it's impossible.
    I know how to do this if everything was one big indd file, but it's not. I suppose that could be an option but I really don't know how my mac will react to a file that large.
    So, how can I make this happen? Is there a way? Would it be better to just do this in Acrobat?

    I actually did already create a book with all the files in it, but I couldn't figure out how that was helpful. The hyperlink panel doesn't seem to have any "book" options (unless I'm looking in the wrong place?) and just linking to the different files (after creating the book) didn't have any different results than linking to the files before I created the book.
    I thought maybe linking to the different files in the book would work if I could export the whole book to pdf at once (which would be super-helpful in and of itself), but that doesn't seem to be an option either.
    I guess what I'm asking is for you to elaborate on what to do after creating the book.
    Thanks!
