Can I have 2 itunes accounts on 1 computer?

Is it possible to have 2 separate itunes acounts on 1shared computer?

Yes it is possible.
If the 2 accounts are for the same person, it is generally not a good idea, since the two accounts complicate account-specific uses such as Home Sharing and iCloud.
It is very common for a single machine to have 2 separate Windows User IDs, each using their own iTunes account.

    I have 3 i phones.  Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?

    My daughter and I both have iphones. I created an account (not separate itunes) for her on my computer so she could sync her phone/itunes but not have it interfere with mine since we have WAY different taste in music. Creating a different computer profile should work if you have separate itunes accounts, too.
    If you all use the same itunes account, you can turn on Home Sharing. That way you can all download the same content without having to pay for it again. Not sure how or if that works with separate itunes accounts.
    Hope that helps!

  • Can u access itunes account on 2nd computer?

    Hi, I doubt im the first this has happen to so I hope someone can help?
    The laptop with my itunes set up on has gone due to a cracked screen. the other laptop in our house already has someone elses itunes set up on it.
    is there anyway, i can use itunes on this laptop?? everytime ive tried it gives a warning that computer already is set up with another itunes account. i dont want to knock out their account and make them lose all their music but also i dont want to lose whats on my iphone.
    and how stupid is it that you cant delete tracks off your iphone directly. totally unnecessary restriction.
    thanks

    An account is just a user name and password. You can log into your account from any computer that has itunes.
    Logging into your account will not bring up your music. You get ONE download of your music. After that it is your responsibility to backup your music and move it wherever you want it.
    Likewise, logging out of your account does nothing to the music that is stored on the computer. Your account is for purchasing music.
    What is it that you are trying to accomplish?
    You can set up two different itunes libraries/users accounts:

  • Can you have two iTunes accounts on one computer?

    Just bought a MacBook Air which I'm sharing with my husband. Is it possible to have two active iTunes accounts on one computer? We both have very different tastes in music and we have our own iPhones that we'd like to update differently. Would be great to have the option to separate our accounts.

    Yes you can... and it's not that hard

    Yes. Log in and out of the iTunes Store as desired, or create a separate Windows user account.
    do we have to download a second instance of iTunes on my computer to establish her account?
    Only one instance of iTunes itself can exist per bootable OS.

  • Can I have two different itunes accounts on my computer?

    Can I have two different apple itunes accounts on my computer without them having anything to do with each other?

    If you've used iTunes Match, automatic downloads or redownloaded an account's past purchases then you will have tied your computer to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 - so you won't be able to do either of those 3 things on a different account until the 90 days have completed.
    If you can't wait for the 90 days to finish then you can try contacting iTunes Support and see if they can remove the association : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    Correct, but you shouldn't have them in one library.
    Why not?
    If you want to use two Apple IDs, you should create a second library for one of these Apple IDs, or another user that uses a different library.
    Why?
    I have one library with three iTunes accounts (mine and two daughters). No problems at all.

  • We have itunes music on a computer, an ipod nano, and a new ipod touch under two different accounts. How can we combine the music from both accounts to one device?

    We have itunes music on a computer, an ipod nano, and a new ipod touch under two different accounts. How can we combine the music from both accounts to one device?

    There is no "adding" a device.  Simply plug the iDevice into the computer.  iTunes should automatically detect the device when it is connected.
    iTunes can sync/manage as many iDevices as you want... there is no 1 device limit.

  • I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that are not synced with my iTunes account on my computer.  How can I sync my phone and iTunes on my computer without losing what is on my iPhone?  (original computer was stolen)

    I have some music from CDs and recent purchases from iTunes on my iPhone 4 that I would like to sync with my iTunes account on my computer.  The CDs were on my original laptap also, but it was stolen and I set up the iTunes on my new computer.
    When I try to sync I get a message indicating that the iPhone iTunes will be replaced with the computer iTunes.
    How can I sync and retain both iTunes?

    Music is designed to sync in one way only, and that is from iTunes to the phone. There is the expectation that you would backup the computer to save this data. There are 3rd party solutions to try and recover music from the phone to put back into a blank iTunes library.
