Registering with one iTunes account and buying apps with another...

Can you register a device to one account but purchase apps with another and if so...how can I do this?

We are using iPads at our school to compliment and enhance teaching- they belong to the school but we are exploring the option of using multiple IDs to access apps . I am trying to troubleshoot potential problems before rollout.

  • Can I sync certain itmes from one itunes account and certain items from another itunes account on the same ipad?

    I was wondering if an individual would be able to sync certain items from one itunes account and and items from a different itunes account to the same ipad?

    You move the song files to /Users/Shared/ and then into iTunes from the other Mac OS X user account.
    If you want to change the iTunes Store account associated with them, you need to redownload them from that account.

  • How would I take money from one iTunes account and put it on another iTunes account?

    Trying to swap money from one iTunes account to another iTunes account so I can make in app purchases in a certain game. Can anyone help me out please?

    You can't do this yourself. Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff to put it back onto the card; they'll only do this if none of the balance has been spent.

  • We have always used one iTunes account and I want to crate a new account for my daughter.  What is the best way to go about this and will she need to download free apps again?

    Not going to happen the way you want it to.
    When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
    Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

    With your new computer, you'll download a fresh copy of iTunes and then authorize iTunes using your Apple ID and Password.  Read the following link:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
    You can then connect your iPad to your new computer via USB cable and transfer your purchases (do not connect your iPad until you have authorized the computer.  The music you had in your old iTunes account will not be in your new account as music is stored in a file on your hard drive, which you said has crashed.

  • Sign out of one itunes account and sign into another seperate account on same macbook.  Cannot access itunes library for 2nd account

    Sign out of one itunes account and sign into another seperate itunes account on same macbook.  Cannot access itunes library for 2nd account.  How do I do this?

    iTunes account is not the same as iTunes library.
    iTunes account is what you use to purchase from iTunes.
    iTunes library is what is on your computer.
    You can have items from multiple iTunes accounts in one iTunes library.

  • Managing 2 iPhones with iTunes and one iTunes account and computer...

    Hello All!
    I already have a 16GB 3G iPhone and we're going to be getting another 3G for my wife (whether it is 8GB or 16GB is still to be decided). On my phone, I have about 13GB used, with the primary source being music. We intend the same iTunes account and there are no other devices using authorizations on this account.
    *First, does Apple's licensing of applications allow the second phone using the same iTunes account to download all of the previously purchased applications for free?* In other words, will she be able to download any applications I purchased for free since I have unlimimted free downloads on my phone?
    Second, and most importantly, I am wondering how iTunes manages two different iPhones on one computer. This will especially be an issue if she gets an 8GB iPhone since everything that is on my phone will not fit on an 8GB model. She doesn't want or need all of my music, so we could very easily not transfer all of the music. But, I'm just wondering how they will co-exist if they are different sizes and her phone might keep running out of room. If the iTunes software doesn't handle this situation well, we may buy a 16GB model just to make our lives easier. *If someone could provide me with information on how the iTunes software handles multiple phones (especially if they are of different capacities) or links to other websites with information on this topic I would really appreciate it.*
    We need to make our purchase in the next month, so I want to know what we are getting into if she decides to get an 8GB model with me having a 16GB one. I just don't want to have a management nightmare. I'd appreciate any help in advance. Thanks!
    Jim

    I currently have 2 iphones, 1 is a 2G 8GB, the other is a 3G 16GB. I use smart playlists on the 16GB and only sync those playlists. The 8G is set up to manually manage music per my sons request. It would be just as easy to have a playlist set up for him and have it sync only that playlist. So yes, you can absolutely have both on one computer. As far as applications, as long as you are syncing to the same computer/same account, it will allow you to place the app's on both machines. I don't know what the legality of that is, however.

  • Sharing an iTunes account (and its apps) inside a family

    how does one share an itunes account (and apps) within a family?

    I agree with Mr J Spoons. If Apple allowed a "Family Account" that was tied to a credit card with all "necessary" restirctions it needs (for piracy/copying/etc.) and allowed the administrator of that account to add sub-accounts to that Familly Account it would be fantastic.
    I don't believe that anyone would allow friends to buy from the iTunes Store using its family account, since all would be paid by the credit card on file.
    Also, if my I make any purchase using my individual iTunes account or my wife does the same with hers, we could decide at that time to push the purchase to the "Family Account" or not. This would keep the Family music and apps centralized and allow for individual apps (and music) to be separated. All following the DRM/piracy/sharing controls that Apple has to have in place.
    This is such a needed feature not only to the family world but also the business world. You could, instead of a Family account, create a Company account and department accounts under that.
    I hope apple get this straighten up.

  • HT201303 What if someone hacks my account and buys apps without my permission

    Hello,  I was just resetting my itunes password because I simply forgot it.  I'm suprised it was quite easy... a little too easy.
    All you need to have is a know someones email address and password attached to a itunes account and sneak around it.  Reset the itunes password with it and buy loads of crap that I will never otherwise buy.  Only to see a large bill on my credit card soon after with their ios device.
    Is there any security measures to prevent this or get my money back if my itunes account is hacked and garbage apps purchased?

    All you have to know to get into any online account, except for a very few, is the ID and password, so the iTunes Store is not particularly unusual. You need to take the same precautions you would with your bank account; make your password difficult to guess, change it regularly, don't use the same password on the iTunes Store that you use elsewhere, and don't give it to anyone else.
    As to resetting the password, for someone else to do that, they would also need either to have hacked your email account so as to be able to receive the reset email or know the answers to your secret question, so it's not all that easy. 
    If you have a better idea about how Apple can provide better security, though, you can submit it to Apple here:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
    But if you're really worried, don't keep your credit card information stored in your account. Remove it whenever you're through purchasing.

  • Can i use one itunes account and 2 ipod toung devices

    can i have two cloud with one itunes account?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
    Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
    You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
    The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
    So yes, you can use a separate iCloud account on each iPod and a single iTunes account on both of them.

  • My sisters ipod touch was being registered to my itunes account and then itunes crashed at the final stage and now it wont give me an option to sync my apps and songs from my itunes to her ipod. What can i do?

    I have an iphone and it is obviously registered to my itunes so i have all my apps and music on it and my sister just got the new ipod touch and wants my apps and music and so i went to register it to my itunes to sync my music and apps to it just before her birthday but itunes crashed on one of the stages (the final stage i think) of registartion and so i had to close itunes and start it up again but it didnt give me the steps to register the ipod again and now when i connect it i go onto the ipod button and it is just blank with ipod written in the middle with no autofill buttons or sync buttons or any automatic fills and i cant drag music onto it either. Is there anything i can do?

    - You need to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and start anew.  Is the restore button visable in iTunes?  If it is they restore the iPod.
    - If it is not visible try resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - If the restore button is still not visable, try placing the iPod in recovry mode.  See:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • More than one device with one iTunes account and one computer

    I have an iPod Touch 3rd gen and my husband has a iPhone 3 (I guess; its not the iPhone 4). We have different music tastes and do not want each others music (sometimes) on the other's device. But since we both use the same computer for iTunes we only have one account. Is this the best way to do this? Can you have more than 1 iTunes account on a computer?
