How do I tie my wife's apple ID with my itunes account?

I have had an itunes account for a while. She just purchased an iphone and we of course want everything tied together so that she can order things but have them added to our household Itunes account. Can her id be somehow tied to my itunes account?

If she hasn't yet bought anything on her account then she could use your account with the store apps instead of her own, an account can be used on multiple devices - she can log out of an account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and she can then log in with a different account. She can either use her own or your account in Settings > iCloud for backing up (assuming that she wants to back to the cloud and if you want to share calendars etc) - an iCloud account has a free 5 gig allowance, that is per account, not device

How to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with one iTunes account

We recently received iPad 2's for Christmas and was looking for some advice on how to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with One iTunes Account (Apple Id). I have created or attached other e-mail addresses to our apple id but do not know how to use them on the new devices. Our home MacBook Pro uses our main apple id for FaceTime. The iPads have been setup with the main apple id w/o being able to use FaceTime and iMessage.
Please Help...
I appreciate the help and support.

P and V-
If you are trying to connect to someone with a different Apple ID, I think all the devices should work, but one at a time.
The problem is when you try to connect between two with the same Apple ID. Once the calling device tries to make the connection, it finds the second device to be "busy". That is where each needs to use a different E-Mail address when setting it up.
On iOS devices, when you press the Home button to exit an App, the App may still be active in the background, even when the device is sleeping. If FaceTime or iMessage is merely being active that way, it may be enough to "tie up" the E-Mail address.
From the Home screen, double click your Home button. You will see a list of recent Apps along the bottom of the screen. Press and hold on one of them until they start to wiggle. You will then see a red minus sign on each. Pressing the minus sign will remove an App from the list, and stop it from working in the background. (Click the Home button to stop the wiggling, and again to hide the recent Apps.)

How do I sign into netflix on apple tv with an iTunes account?

I signed up for netflix through my apple tv by signing up through my iTunes account. Now when I try to access netflix on my apple tv it tells me that I need to sign in with my email and password and doesn't allow me to sign in through my iTunes account? Even if I enter the email and password associated with my itunes account, I still have no luck. Any advice?

Hey apples, how do I get my iPhone 4 sync'ed with my itunes account using my laptop?

Hey apples, how do I get my iPhone 4 sync'ed with my itunes account using my laptop = how do I add my existing itunes from my account from my laptop to my iPhone 4. Thanks.

Overview of syncing iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with your computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386
Keep in mind that with the iPhone, you can sync all iTunes content with only one computer. Trying to sync iTunes content with a second computer will result in iTunes erasing the content from the first computer. However, non-itunes content such as contacts, calendars, mail settings, notes, etc. (anything in the Info pane) can be synced from another computer.
If you have songs on a different computer, copy them to the computer you use to sync:

Sharing Apple TV with two iTunes Accounts

I have an iMac with an iTunes Account that is synced with an Apple TV. When I purchase movies on the Apple TV it bills my iTunes Account.
My Wife also has an iTunes Account separate from mine, and wishes to purchase movies on Apple TV and have the fee deducted from her her account.
Is it possible to have your Apple TV bill more than one account?

You will have to log into your wife itune account but from the TV.
Settings, itunes etc......

My wife has a macbook with an itunes account; I have a macbook with a different itunes account. Can I put her music on my account?

I'm sorry if this has been gone over multiple times, but I couldn't find what I was looking for. Here's my issue. I just finished uploading the 3,000 songs that Match couldn't find. I know that you can associate multiple computers with iTunes match. This seems like the best way to finally completely merge my wife's i-Everything with mine. Can I switch her library to my account, turn on iTunes Match on her computer through my account, and upload/match any files that I don't have without losing her original stuff? Does that question make sense?
In other words, if I just log her into my account will all of her stuff disappear, or will it all magically become one?
Thanks,
Sam Worden

Try loging out of and back into your AppleId: (Settings app > iTunes&App Stores > [tap on your account] > Sign out. Then sign back in.

HT204053 How do I change the charging credit card associated with my iTunes account?

I need to change my credit card info. How do I do that?

Once you have created an iCloud account and chosen an @icloud.com address to go with it you can't change the address (short of creating an entirely new account).
However, all is not lost. You can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account or move it to another account.
More information on aliases here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a

We have two adults in the home. Both have their own iTunes accounts which are on their own MacBooks.

Why can't I buy a apple device with my iTunes account money?

Why can't I buy something like the new iPod touch with my iTunes money. I don't get why because they are from the same company. This is puzzling so I need some help if anyone can give me and answer that would be great.

Because the itunes store, where you have credit, does not sell ipods.
Whether you understand it or not, you CANNOT use your itunes gift card for Apple Store Purchases.
It is ONLY for itunes store purchases.

Apple TVs in Multiple Locations with 1 Itunes Account

Hi,
Is it possible to use multiple Apple TVs with 1 iTunes account even if we are in different locations. For example if my wife watches a movie we had purchased through Apple TV at our cottage, could I still use to our home Apple TV to watch other purchased content? This had been fine in the past using our 1 Netflix account but we have never tried it with movies purchased through Apple.
Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple community.
Yes that should be just fine, obviously you would be unable to get content from your iTunes library on your computer at another location.

How do I change the Apple ID associated with my iTunes account?

How do I change the Apple ID associated with my iTunes account?
I have an apple ID that i have associated with my account but I want to change it to another ID that I just created. I needed to create this new ID so that both my wife and I can use the ID for our shared iTunes account and then we each have our own apple IDs with our own calendars, contacts, etc.

Change it on what way ? You can update the primary email address on an account by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on an iOS device and signing into the account, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com
If you want to log out of the account so that you can log in with a different account then tap on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store if using an iOS device and sign out, or on a computer's iTunes use the Store > Sign Out menu option. Any content downloaded by the currently logged in account will remain tied to that account, so only that account will be able to redownload it and/or download updates to its apps

Using More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library
Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data. Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
