I have 2 ipods on same account( 2 different kids in household) how can I separate them into 2 different accounts?

There are actually a few methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
Just to summarise what's in the link above:
Method one is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries.
Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. If you've had no success with this you can have a look through the guide on this page: Loading songs onto iPod automatically
Another option when using a single library is to set one or both of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
You can read about Windows user accounts here: Using Windows XP User Accounts

  • HT204053 If I've signed up multiple devices on the same apple ID how can i change them into different individual ID's?

    Hello, I have multiple devices that i've used the same apple ID for. I was curious to know if I can change each of them into something different?

    You can migrate a device to a new account with a new ID.  To migrate to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.

  • I have three e-mailaccounts how can I combine them into one account?

    My ex-wife has our family account on a e-mail account that we still use for the family. However I have created my own account which by mistake I entered it wrong on the app store and already created two accounts wrong as the new account.  I want to put the correct account to the correct e-mail and add it to the one account I have to my family account.  Example would be I have a @msn.com and a @Hotmail account but I need the MSN account to be deleted and to use the Hotmail account and then add the Hotmail account to the @family account.

    With all these errors it may be best to talk to the security team who should be able to unravel the situation.   Go to your national contacts via ...

  • I have 2 iphones and 1 ipad on one apple id how can I seperate them

    I have 2 iphones and 1 ipad on one Apple ID how can I seperate them into different apple ids

    Sign out of the Apple ID on the device in question, making sure to disable the Find My iDevice feature.
    Sign in with the new Apple ID.
    If the intent is to sell the device, simply restore as new after disabling the Find My iDevice and signing out.

  • HT1491 I have two itunes accounts with different Apple ID's.  How can I merge them into one?

    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.

  • My wife and I have made many purchases over several years on seperate accounts, how could we join them into one account, without losing everything?

    My wife and I have made many purchases over several years on seperate accounts, how could we join them into one account, without losing everything? We both use Iphone 5's and share an Imac at home.

    Purchases using one Apple ID cannot be merged or transferred to another Apple ID. Purchases are forever tied to that Apple ID used. You have to decide which Apple you want to use for purchases and stick to that Apple ID so that you can share: Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID : > use the same Apple ID here to share purchases.

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.

    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''

    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

  • I apparently have more than one Apple ID.  So, 1) how do I find out how many different ones exist, and 2) how can I consolidate them into one or two?

    I have inadvertenly created two or more different Apple IDs.  How can I learn all the different IDs associated with my email accounts or my name?  How can I consolidate the different IDs into one or two?

    Go to https://iforgot.apple.com/ and click the blue link "Forgot your Apple ID?"
    It will result a page in which you can provide some contact information that may possibly find an existing Apple ID.
    How can I consolidate the different IDs into one or two?
    This cannot be accomplished.

  • I have iTune accounts under two separate Apple IDs.  Can I merge them into one account under one ID?

    I have iTune accounts under two separate Apple IDs.  Can I merge them into one account under one ID?  I have purchased music and video in both.

    No, it is not possible to merge accounts.  Choose one as the primary account and keep a local backup of all purchases so you don't get into the mess where you encounter a 90 day freeze on re-downloading past purchases from multiple accounts.

  • Due to circumstances I have three iCloud accounts, How can I amalgamate them into one iCloud account?

    Due to circumstances I have three iCloud accounts, How can I amalgamate them into one iCloud account?

    No, unfortunately you cannot merge accounts or transfer any purchased content from one account to another. As I said Apple won't let you do that.

    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.
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.

  • I have just used migration assistant to import photos (using an ethernet cable) from my PC. It has worked but they have gone into a new user on my MacPro. How can I merge them into the one user account.

    I have just used migration assistant to import photos (using an ethernet cable) from my PC. It has worked but they have gone into a new user on my MacPro. How can I merge them into the one user account.

    How many pictures (or how many bytes) are we talking?  Now that the pictures are imported one way to cross users is to use a removable drive (although large volumes of files preclude this).
    The other is to login as the user where the pictures are, then copy them into the public drop box of the user where you want the picture.
    The arrow is showing (in ths example) copy files from the Pictures folder for my user to the guest user accounts public dropbox.  When you do this you may have to authenticate and you won't be able to see the results of the copy until you log in as the other user.
    All users are in the folder "/Users/"
