Is it possible for two apple IDs to share an iTunes library?

Me and my brother each have our own apple IDs. Is there anyway we can share an iTunes library for all the media available including apps and not be able to see each others emails and keep our own progress in games? The devices we use are iPhone 5 and iPad mini.

o I installed from our 10 server license pack.
Note that it's actually a 10 client license, not a 10 server license. As Templeton said, for each system on which you want to install the ARD administration application, you need to purchase a separate copy of ARD.
How do I get different serial numbers on each machine from the same license pack?
You don't. If you want to have the administrator application installed on two systems, you will need to purchase a second 10-client copy of ARD.

  • HT202213 can two apple ids use the same itunes account?

    I'm pretty new to apple products and have an itunes question. My husband and I just bought iPhones and have separate apple id's. We will also using an iPod. Is it possible to use itunes with both id's? Is there any way to share the files between both of us?

    If you want to share a single AppleID with a single iTunes Library, then simply sync both devices to that iTunes library using the same user account.
    If you want to sync two AppleIDs to one iTunes library, in iTunes on the computer, login and authorize each AppleID, then sync the devices to that common iTunes library in the same user account.
    You do not do anything on the device being sync'd itself - it all has to do with how iTunes that you are syncing to is set up and what AppleIDs are authorized there.  You can sync multiple devices to iTunes, just be sure that each device gets a unique device name in the iTunes sidebar.
    To then use unique AppleIDs for iCloud and iMessage on a iOS device, first, make an iCloud account with the AppleID you want to use (go to http://www.iCloud.com), then set up that iCloud account on the device with that ID and password.  In iMessage, just log out with whatever AppleID you are using now, log in with the new AppleID and it will reauthorize, now linking that device with the new iMessage account just created with that AppleID (your iMessage primary account ID is always the AppleID used to initially create and verify the iMessage account).

  • Can I use two apple tv's with one itunes library?

    I have been looking for a way to store my DVD's on a hard drive and watch them via my Apple TV as they are taking up too much space on my shelves. My first thought was to buy a large external hard drive and rip the dvd's using Handbrake for my streaming to my Apple TV gen 3 but I remembered that I still have my original 160gig Apple TV gen 1 which pretty much works as a large iPod for movies when syncing content rather than streaming.
    So my plan would be :
    1. Rip and add the dvd's to my iTunes library
    2. Manually sync the movie files to the Apple TV 1
    3. Delete the movies from iTunes to avoid using large amounts of computer hard drive space.. (this shouldn't interfere with the content on the Apple TV as syncing manually)
    4. Connect the Apple TV to my TV to watch movies.
    Can I have both of my Apple TV's connected to my iTunes library?
    Are there any con's to using the old 1st gen Apple TV in this manner? For instance, I know there is no HDMI connection and the processor is older and slower than the newer versions.
    It would be a shame to not be able to put the 160gig of hard drive space on the older Apple TV to good use, especially as it still works perfectly.. and it was a refurb when I bought it!

    We cannot comment on your plans to copy DVD's but I have a number of Apple TV 1's, 2's and 3's all working together without a problem.
    On the idea of keeping your content on your Apple TV 1 and deleting it from iTunes, you may want to read my article on this topic.

  • HT201269 How do I set up two iPod Touches to share one iTunes library?

    I purchased a new iPod Touch, but still want to use old one, so I want to share my current library between the two devices

    Hi JayRLien,
    You don't have to do anything special. Just sync the new iPod to the Library. My husband and I use the same iTunes library - different Apple IDs, several different devices, no problems....
    Cheers,

  • Can 2 people with different apple id's share an iTunes library

    We have 2 apple id's and one laptop. Can we shre our iTunes library?

    iCloud has nothing to do with content like songs and apps that you purchased. You could use one Apple ID for iTunes and App Stores that you would have to set up in "Settings > iTunes & App Stores (Both of you could use the same Apple ID for that). And then everyone of you could set up a (new) iCloud account in "Settings > iCloud" so that everyone of you has its own icloud.com email address, calendars, notes, reminders, data, backups etc.

  • Can I get iMessages for two Apple IDs on my phone?

    I have a work Apple ID and a personal Apple ID. I don't take my work iPad home, but co-workers need to send me messages after I've left for the day. Can I set up my work Apple ID on my iPhone? When I try to add it, it says it's already in use.

    Nope only one apple id can be used.

  • Is it possible to have two Apple IDs  for one account?

    I would like to set up one account with two Apple IDs so I could have one restricted to only free apps and the other unrestricted.  My daughter has an iPod Touch and I want to restrict what she can purchase but also make it so if we agree that purchasing an app for her iPod Touch we can.  New to this Apple ID stuff.
    Thanks,
    BubbaGee

    No. Each account needs it uniquie email adresss as the Apple ID.  However, yucan use more than one account on a single iPod and in iTunes.
    To change the acount on the iPOd go to Settins>Store and sign out and sign in with the account you wnat. Also see:

  • Is it possible to merge or sync two apple IDs that belong to me so I can access purchases from both in my iCloud?

    When I got my iPad and was prompted to change my apple ID to an email address format one, I discovered I already had another apple ID using my email address - must have set it up years ago and not realised I had two apple IDs (I know - oops).
    I am now trying to find a way to merge the two as they obviously both belong to me - so I can get all my purchases aligned to the one iCloud that is registered to my email ID.
    Apple support can't help - has anyone had a similar problem and found a solution??

    As you have already discovered... what you want is not possible.
    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.

    Hi dip_kinu,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what device you are trying to set up and what is happening when you try to do so. If you are having issues remembering your Apple ID, or feel like you may have set up multiple Apple ID's, you may find the following page helpful:

  • Can you have two Apple IDs on one IPAD? One for school and one for home?

    Can you have two Apple IDs on one IPAD? One for school and one for home?
    If so do you know how to do it?

    It depends on what you want to do.
    You could, for example, have one AppleID for iCloud backup [and therefore message syncing, notes syncing, etc] and a second one for iTunes [music, iBooks, etc].
    But if you are looking for a way to flip everything between different appleIDs, then no.

  • How do you create two apple ids for one email address.

    I bought two i pads for my kids. Since we have just one email address, everytime I try to create a new apple id it says I already have one. They need separate ids so their friends can facetime with one and not the other. Can't figure out how to create two apple ids with one email address.

    Donnathemom wrote:
    Well any ideas on how to solve this problem? When my daughter does facetime with someone it says she's Wyatt. She's not real happy about that. 
    Get her an email address, even if she never uses it.  They're free and available almost everywhere.  The only requirement is that the address be a valid one.
    Edit...
    You can even use an "alias" of yours.  That's a fake address that actually sends everything to you.  Check with your current email supplier.

  • I seem have two apple IDs - on for an icloud address and one for everything prior.

    I seem have two apple IDs - one for my new icloud email address and one for ipad/purchases which has been active for 6 months.
    Can I change this to simplify it, or should I follow instructions to ensure everything is matched?

    I am logged into the same things on both my iPhone and my MacBook Pro, except for mail. I use a gmail IMAP account and everything there already works on both machines. The iCloud account on my iPhone uses one Apple ID and the one on the Mac uses the second Apple ID.

  • I'd like to know tips for sharing apps between my wife and myself on two iPads with two apple IDs and one computer.

    I'm new to iTunes, app store, and managing content on two iPads and an iPod. I manage both iPads and an iPod on one computer, but we have two apple IDs. All my music is on a home-theatre pc. I don't really understand home sharing yet, and I am hoping for some tips from experienced users to keep me from losing content, or mixing up apps and confusing digital rights etc.

    You cannot share apps, or any other content purchased from the iTunes Store, between two different Apple IDs.  Those purchases are tied to the Apple ID.

  • HT204053 Can I use any of two Apple IDs to purchase apps for the same iPad?

    Hello,

  • Can you have two apple ids on one mac?

    Can you have two apple ids on one mac? We each have iPhones and want to utilize iCloud.  Is this possible?

    No, in this case the 2 user accounts with its own Apple IDs would be completely seperated.
    If you want to share this things like music and app purchases you will have to to something else.
    1. Create two user accounts on your Mac (user A and user B).
    2. Create two iCloud accounts just for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Photos, etc. (one for user A and one for user B):
    On your Mac (with Mac OS X Lion or Mountan Lion):
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > iCloud > Create an Apple ID (button in left corner)
    On your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch (iOS 5 or later):
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > iCloud > Get a free @me.com address and create a new Apple ID
    3. It is not recommended because you shouldn't share your Apple ID account information with other people but you could set up your old Apple ID as an account just for store purchases (Apps, Music, ...) so that everyone of you can manage the purchases in their own library (Access is limited to 10 devices). Therefore you have to setup this "old" ID in Settings of your iOS devices (Settings > iTunes & App Store) and in iTunes on your Mac.
