How can my wife and I combine our iTunes?

My wife and I have been dragging our feet and have finally broke down and want to have one iTunes to manage both of our music and sync our iPhones with.  However, I cannot figure out how to do this, without one of us just giving up our music that we have purchased through iTunes.  Please help!

Copy all of your music to one computer. Authorize it for all your accounts.  Purchase using one account from here on out.

  • How can my wife and I share our iTunes account?

    My wife has an iTunes account as do I, but we are ideally trying to combine them so that we have a central iTunes library that we can both pull from. Is this possible?  We are on Windows Vista platform outside of our apple products.
    We have 2 iPhones and several iPods.

    How can my wife and I use our two iTunes accounts on one IPad

    Unfortunately it will be difficult. iPads are personal devices like phones and done have credentials. You can of course log out of and into the app store to download purchased apps but the iPad will then have all the apps of both your wife and you (though you could put these into folders I guess).

  • How can my wife access all of our itunes music if she signs up for iTunes match, but her apple id is different than mine?

    How can my wife access all of our iTunes music, even if she subscribes to iTunes Match, if her Apple ID is different than mine?

    I do subscribe to iTunes Match.....and the music i am referring to is all of our downloaded albums and songs that are currently in iTunes and in the "cloud" on my iPhone and my iPad.
    So if she uses my Apple ID for her iPhone, she can sign up for iTunes Match on my account?  Will any of my apps then transfer to her phone?  Or just the iTunes "data"?

  • Can my wife and I merge our iTunes accounts?

    It would make life a lot easier if my wife and I could merge our two iTunes accounts. Is this possible?

    As Katrina notes, you cannot merge accounts. If by any chance what you really mean is to merge libraries, then yes you can. Find the songs on the hard drive and add them into the library that you will both be using.

    How can my wife and I share cloud with 2 different login's

    If you each have separate iCloud accounts with different IDs, you can add the other person's account to your device(s) by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and signing in with their ID.  These "secondary accounts" will sync mail, contacts, calendars, reminders and notes.

  • How can my wife and I be friends in game center if we use the same Itunes account?

    How can my wife and I be friends in game center if we use the same Itunes account?

    You can set up multiple accounts in Game Centre, sign out and create new account. You just need a different email address from any existing Apple ID's and a new password. You can still use the old account for purchases.

    Hi theirmimi,
    Go to Manage your Apple ID (on a computer) and sign in with your Apple ID. Then you can edit the email information on your account:

  • How can I find and eliminate duplicates in iTunes 11?

    I can't seem to find the "Find exact duplicates" item in the File Menu in version 11. How can I find and deal with duplicates?

    Shift-View-Show Exact Duplicates should reveal them. Keep one of each repeated group of files and don't send to the recycle bin unless you are sure that there are multiple files on the disc as opposed to multiple entries to the same file.
    There is also my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. This can preserve ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. which are lost in a manual clean up. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping. See this thread for background on deduping and the script.

  • How can my wife and I add photo to the same photo stream with different apple ID's?

    My Wife and I are having  baby and we would like to both be able to add photos to her shared "baby" photostream.  We have different apple ID's.  Is this possible and how can we do it?
    Thanks!

    No, you would have to share the same apple id.  FAQ photostream http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
    You could do this have your wife import the pics to the computer http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 , then you can sync those pics to your phone using itunes.
    Or use dropbox, there should be an app.

  • How do my GF and I share our iTunes library across our user profiles?

    I'm sure this question has been asked a million times but here goes.
    My GF and I both have a user profile on our Mac Mini. She is just now setting up her new iPhone and wants to be able to get music on it and such from her own profile.
    All of the iTunes (and iPhoto) media sits on an external 2TB hard drive. I can see everything free and clear in my profile. When I log into her profile she's got nothing in her music library. How can we get her to be able to access the same library? Also, is there a way to ensure that if she were to add new music to her folder that I would see it in mine?
    Your big brains appreciated on this. I'm sure there's a simple solution, no?
