Can a Canadian have a US itunes account as well as a CDN one

Hello,
I have an itunes Canadian account but was wondering if there is a way to set up a second US account to buy some songs that are not on the Canadian Itunes store.
I figure there must be some way to do it.
Thanks in advance.

In order to buy from another country's iTunes Music Store, you must have either:
a) a credit card with a billing address in that country, or
b) a mailing address in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
If you can fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, then yes, you can set up another account in the US iTMS. You just connect to the US iTMS and create a new account just as you did in the Canadian store.
If you cannot meet one of those sets of conditions, then you will not be able to purchase from the US iTMS (or any of the other countries' stores).
This, BTW, is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice.

I have 2 itunes accounts and I want to cancel one of them how do i cancel it?

I have 2 different itunes accounts and I need to cancel one of them. where can I go to do this, I can't find anywhere on the itunes website to cancel my account

Stop using it. Take your credit card info out of it.
No need to do anything else.
All purchases made from that account will still be tied to the account so you will have to authorize your computer to that account as well.

I have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

i have 3 different itunes accounts and would like to combine them into just one for all my devices, a macbook pro, an iphone 4S, an older IPOD, and a ver sion one Ipad. how can i do this on all devices ?

i had one for a long time, then when i got the ipad i didn't realize they would all still work under one so i set up the second one on that
then when i got the new iphone i put in the info for the first and main one from my mac pro and it would not work at all, and i knew it was right, then it asked me to create a new one or i couldnt finish the setup
hence why i have 3 now
hard to believe you cannot combine into one
oh well, i will just make them all accessible for all 3
thanks

If it is in your itunes on your computer, then select it to sync just like everything else that you sync.
The music must be on your computer.

My husband and i share a macbook. we each have our own log-in and we each have our own itunes account. how can we share our libraries?

First, you need to understand that there's a difference between "syncing" and "backup". Backup is the saving of content and settings, where syncing is the bidirectional transfer of content for an account to a web-based server (like iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc.)
If you see your calendar in your iCloud account, that implies that you have set up your iCloud account to host (sync) your calendar, and perhaps contacts, email, and notes. An iCloud account can only sync one user's information at a time so it is intended to support a single user. You can have more than one iCloud account, and you can even have more than one iCloud account on the same device (but one has to be primary, and the secondary iCloud has limited capabilities), but a single iCloud account only supports a single user's content.
Backup is the saving of your device's content and settings to use in case you need to recover these things, but you can't see the contents of your backup (just the size and device name). You can backup more than one device to iCloud and you can backup to iCloud or you can backup to your computer, or both (one at a time though, you have to choose).
So, if your wife has her own email and calendar she can certainly do that in parallel to whatever account(s) you have for email and calendar. But if you have only one iCloud account then only one of you can use it for email, calendar, etc. But the backup of these accounts is really just a backup of the device's settings that link the device to these accounts. For example, if she uses Gmail then the backup of the iPad only backs up the fact that your iPad is set up to use her account, it does not backup the account itself (the content of her account is saved and preserved on Google's servers, not your device's backup).
Does that make better sense?

Can I have two separate iTunes accounts on the same computer?

Can I have two separate iTunes accounts on the same computer? My wife's music is much different than mine. Can we have different iTunes libraries to work with on the same computer?

Yes. Launch iTunes with the Shift key held down as needed, or use separate Windows user accounts on the computer.

I have a personal itunes account with an iPhone5s and an iPad 4 mini. I have unlokced my old iPhone 4 to use for work on a diffeent SIM and new number, can i have all devices associated to me single appleID and use both numbers ?

I have a personal itunes account with an iPhone5s (perosnal mobile numer) and an iPad 4 mini (no SIMM). I have unlocked my old iPhone 4 to use for work on a different SIM and new number,
Do you know if I can have all devices associated to my single apple ID and still use both numbers without messing up my profile. It has just changed my number over.

I would not be able to give you idiot proof guide, since different games are different. Some of them have icloud integrated already, but those already taken care of. Some of them use specific logins and once you log - you get your info. General recommendation is to contact support sites of those games for enabling icloud instructions or enabling of transfer. There are other purely apple ways - like sync your phone in itunes and then sync apps with ipad, but those are only one time transfer. There is another way that is not typically recommended - restoring ipad from iphone backup. It may transfer your game content, but once again sync in the future has to be done by game.
So if I were you, I would address that individually with every game provider.

Hi theirmimi,
Go to Manage your Apple ID (on a computer) and sign in with your Apple ID. Then you can edit the email information on your account:

Can you have two separate itunes accounts on one pc

I currently have my own itunes account on a Dell laptop that we want to get rid of and will be using another Dell laptop that already has another itunes account on it. Can there be two accounts on one laptop. If yes, how.

Yes, by using separate Windows user accounts, or if you mean iTunes libraries, starting iTunes with the Shift key held down as needed.

Can I have a family Itunes account

I have my own iTunes account and iCloud and all that.
I have an iPhone and an iPad, using iTunes on Windows on my personal Laptop.
My wife has an iPhone and iTunes with her own account. With her iTunes on her personal Laptop.
We both have work laptops.
Is there any way to consolidate our iTunes libaries and databases into one place.
Can this be done with iMatch and iCloud?
What I really want is to have is that we have one iTunes account that we can access from anywhere and that synch's to all our devices.
that way we can share/create/edit playlists and all that from any device.
Is there a way to merge both of our accounts into one family account or something?
Or will I just have to trasnfer a libary from one to the other and we both use that Apple Id.
Then enable home sharing and iMatch ?
Will that do the trick?
How many authrised computers and devices can you have on one iTunes account?
Thanks

Hi
that helps alot
so there is no Merge,
What I need to do is transfer the contents of my wife’s library to my home PC.
then get rid of her iTunes account.
Set up her laptop with my account, setup her work laptop with my account, set up her iPhone with my account.
Set up my work laptop with my account.
that way, any purchased material will be available on all our devices?
So, how do I now get rid of the huge database on my personal Laptop, I want to move it to a more reliable platform, An external Raid Network Hard disk, or use the iCloud.
My understanding is that if I leave my Laptop on at home, and use home sharing and iMatch, then I will have effectively have moved my database to the cloud and home sharing allows all computers to access my local database.
Is this the best solution - it seems very convoluted?

I started with one itunes account for my iphone and ipad, and now have a second ipad linked to the same itunes. Can I set up a new itunes account for one ipad without losing what has already been downloaded on it?

A much simpler solution would be to go into Settings > Store and turn off Automatic Downloads

L added her sister R to a family plan. Can R have her own itunes account for syncing the phone and downloading her own apps, or must she always sign in using L's account and password?

So, if R wants to sync her iphone 5C but still have L pay for it on the family plan, can R just get her own itunes account for buying music and apps? Or is she stuck using L's account?

Family Plan as with the cell phone carrier?
Is so, the iTunes account or Apple ID is not related to the type of cell phone plan an iPhone is under.
Will the sisters being using the same computer and iTunes library?
