HT4352 can you synch two iTunes library accounts to 1 apple TV?

can you synch two iTunes library accounts to 1 apple TV?

Yes, you will need to turn on "Home Sharing" in each iTunes account and make sure they are listed under the same Apple ID. I have mine set up this way > My iMac, in iTunes "Home Sharing" turned on with my Apple ID, my wife's 17" MBP, in iTunes "home Sharing" turned on with my Apple ID. (not her's) My Apple TV is setup with my Apple ID and under the "Computer" tab if both Macs have their iTunes open I can see both libraries .

    What do you mean by, "synch two itunes accounts"? You don't sync iTunes accounts.
    WHat are yoru trying to accomplish?
    iTunes account= Used to make iTunes purchases.
    iTunes library = All your media and what you see when you open iTunes.

  • Can you have two itunes accounts on the same computer?

    Can you have two itunes accounts on the same computer and if so how do you access them without syncing each others music?

    Yes. Use separate iTunes libraries(launch iTunes with the Shift(Windows) or Option(Mac OS X) key held down as needed), or different user accounts on the computer.

  • CAN YOU HAVE TWO I TUNES ACCOUNT ON ONE COMPUTER?

    CAN YOU HAVE TWO I TUNES ACCOUNT ON ONE COMPUTER?

    The problem with making separate accounts is that this is a laptop, so likely not a huge hard drive, and if the three iTunes libraries need to have a lot of the same music (because everyone or two or three like some of the same stuff) you end up with double or triplicate copies of the music on the hard drive eating up drive space. Since they don't use his laptop normally, creating more accounts (with all the associated files and drive space usage each account would eat up) it probably isn't worth it.
    Instead, the best approach is like Chris said, to make playlists for the girls in the main library and then set up the various iPod to either sync everything (if big enough) or sync only specific playlists (if not big enough).
    Alternatively, they can set their iPods to manual syncing and then when Dad is visiting they can hook up their iPods and "shop" the library and drag in whatever they want to add to the iPods and delete what they no longer want.

  • HT204053 can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

    can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

    You can have only one iCloud "user configuration" per local user on the Mac. Who the local user belongs to doesn't mind. Since it's a local user it's not related with who actually uses it. So let's say you want to set up Photo streaming using your iCloud user, just configure iCloud (under System Preferences) the same way you did on your phone and you're done.
    But, beware: if you're only interested in synching photos, uncheck everything else when configuring iCloud on the Mac, otherwise you will merge, for example, your husband contacts, calendar and mail with those on your phone.
    If you want to avoid any problems you can easily create another local user on the Mac with your name, under System Preferences, System, Users & Groups. After you create the user, logoff. The Mac will ask if you want to disable autologin (since there's more than one user that can log in now), answer yes and you will be presented with a logon screen. Click on your account name, insert the password and configure iCloud to sync with your phone.

  • Can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    can you have two separate icloud accounts for two iphones that sync with the same imac?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes and no.
    There is no issues at all if you use two user accounts on the mac, each can sync with one of the accounts.
    If you are using a single user account, you can add the second account as a secondary account in settings > mail, contacts and calendars and you can then sync mail, contacts, calendars, notes and reminders from the second account, but not documents and data, back to my mac or photostream.

  • HT4314 Can you have multiply Game Center accounts on one apple id

    Can you have multiply Game Center accounts on your apple id

    After 2 hours worth of searching with no answer, I decided to run a test and it worked. This is what I did to have multiple Game Center IDs on iOS7. (People responding may have over looked this detail because they assumed it was obvious, but it wasn't)
    Answer: you MUST have multiple Apple ID accounts, however, you use the main one to log in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE.
    1. I deleted the Alternate Email Address associated with my account
    2. I created an entire new Apple ID with this email address
    3. I login in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE with my original Apple ID (credit card on file)
    4. I login to Game Center, iCloud, etc... with my kid's NEW Apple ID
    So purchasing still goes under our shared account and game center, iCloud, etc... go under my kid's Apple ID.
    ^ ^ ^ ^ This is the simple straight forward answer I was looking for ^ ^ ^ ^

  • Can I access my itunes library from a different apple tv

    Can I access my itunes library through my parents apple tv? I would like to show them photos from my library.

    Not unless the iTunes library is on your parent's local network.
    If it is, then configure iTunes and AppleTV to use the same Home Sharing Credentials, and set up Photos to Share under the iTunes Advanced tab.

  • HT1364 can you move an itunes library from pc to mac?

    Hi everyone,
    The days of my laptop are nearing the end and I'm strongly leaning towards purchasing a macbook. Can you transfer your media library from pc to mac?
    Can you export a copy your library onto an external drive as I don't know how much longer this laptop will last?
    Thanks for the help

    Sorry, I obviously wasn't clear. If you replicate the library from Computer 1 to Computer 2 by copying it, then all will be well. I routinely sync my iPhone and iPad both at home and at work using a single library that I migrate between the two locations via an external drive which is kept up do date using SyncToy.
    Backup the iPod touch on Computer 1.
    Copy the entire iTunes folder from Computer 1 to Computer 2, replacing any existing iTunes folder on Computer 2.
    Check that content is accessible in the migrated library. (Won't be a problem for a standard iTunes library where all the content is inside the iTunes Media folder which in turn is inside your iTunes folder).
    Connect iPod touch to Computer 2.
    Sync.
    In the unlikely event that something goes wrong (it won't) then you can connect the device back to Computer 1 to restore it.
    Note device backups are not stored within the iTunes library and stay on the machine on which they were created. It is theorectically possible to migrate them but there isn't really any point. Once you have synced the iPod with the copy of the library on Computer 2 then Computer 2 will make its own backup of the device.

  • HT201320 Can you have two icloud mail accounts?

    Can you have multiple icloud email accounts?

    I gather you have created a second account. You can sign in with this in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars and check Mail there. This account will appear alongside the 'primary account' (the one signed in in System Preferences>iCloud) - however you won't get 'push' email, it will be checked periodically.

  • Can you have two itunes accounts on a single phone?

    Is it possible on an iphone 5s to have two itunes accounts? My child is getting to an age, where they should have their own itunes account.  We share music and applications and i do not want to have to re-buy everything?

    you can but you can also get locked out the way varjak is recommending for 90 days. what i advise is to use a computer and itunes.  authorise both ids and sign in with 1st download purchases then second and download purchases.  then sync content to your phone. these will help

  • Can you have two iTunes accounts on the same desktop PC?

    I have an iPad 3 and my wife has an iPad 2 from her work. We have a desktop PC which we wish to use to sync the iPads to. We have separate user accounts on the PC. Can we have separate iTunes accounts on the PC?  We will we be able to share music, pictures, etc.?

    Yes. Use separate iTunes libraries(launch iTunes with the Shift(Windows) or Option(Mac OS X) key held down as needed), or different user accounts on the computer.
