  • 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'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

  • 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 we have multiple accounts on 1 computer

    My kids received iPod touches and I'm wondering if I can get them their own iTunes account on my same computer and how I go about doing that

    Have a look at this article: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer

  • IHi i have just downloaded lightroom, i have other products in my computer eg picassa, iphoto and software for downloading photos from my nikond7100.

    if i delete these from my computer will my photos remain in light room and will new photos a
    i download from my camera find their way into lightroom????

    Your photos are never "in" Lightroom. Lightroom utilizes a catalog, which is a database. The database keeps track of where the images are located on your computer system, and keeps track of all adjustments made in Lightroom to those images.Your images will not automatically "find their way" into Lightroom. The way images are added to Lightroom is through the import process. Importing will enable you to download files from a camera card and specify the folder where they will reside on your computer system. The import process will also enable you to add images that are already on your hard drive. Deleting those other programs will do nothing to your images.

  • How can I use iTunes on my new computer, without lossing all my music?

    How can I use iTunes on my new computer, without losing all my music?
    I don't want to rebuy everything I have purchased over the years.
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.

    They should be in your itunes media folder. Use an external hard drive and just copy that to your new computer. I'm sure there's an easier way like this one (iTunes>File>Library>Export Library>External Hard Drive) but I never tried it before. Anyways, once that's done, just simply authorize your itunes account to play music you bought on to the new computer.

  • Can you have more then one Itunes account on your computer?

    Can you have more then one Itunes account on your computer?

    Yes. (One of my systems has music purchased from two different iTunes accounts in its iTunes library.)

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

    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 I have 2 accounts, one on each computer, with the same e-mail address?

    I have a video ipod and an itunes account on my computer. I would like to set up the other computer with itunes as well. It would be used with a shuffle only. The computers share an e-mail address. Can I just download itunes on that computer and set up another account there, or will that cause problems? I do not want to risk the current library on my current account.

    I'm beginning to understand what you are driving at now. iTunes (the program) and iTunes (the account) are only peripherally related to each other. If I so chose, I could install and use iTunes (the program) without ever creating an iTunes account. I'd install the program, rip CDs (or if I wanted to raise the pirate flag, download music illegally) and import those songs into my iTunes library. Then I'd listen to the music and sync my iPod.
    My iTunes account serves only two purposes - to buy and download music from the iTunes store and to limit my use of the songs that I buy to only 5 computers. (An observation, not a complaint, mind.) The iTunes account has nothing to do with keeping my iTunes (the program) library in sync.
    With a single exception what songs my wife and I keep on our individual computers has nothing to do with our iTunes account. This is especially the case since the vast majority of our music comes from CDs we owned long before Apple invented the iPod and even now we buy CDs rather than download. So two external drives connected to my home desktop is the repository for all our music and our other computers contain only a subset thereof. If I rip a CD on my desktop and want those songs on my work computer I either have to take the CD into work and rip it there or copy the mp3 files and take them into work. The same would be true for music I buy at the iTunes store. I'd buy them using one computer and then manually transfer them to all the computers I've authorized for playback.
    Should one computer go belly up, it would have no affect on our other computers. As I said, with one exception, the iTunes library isn't tied to our iTunes account. That one exception is the authorization to play music we've bought from the iTunes store on up to 5 computers. If some disaster struck one of my computers, depending on the severity of the disaster, I'd either deauthorize that single computer or if the computer were totally unusable go to Apple's website and deauthorize all my computers.
    Hope this helps, and keep asking if it doesn't. Marking a thread answered doesn't kill the thread or stop those who are subscribed to it from getting notified about activity.

  • Hi, can anyone tell me if I can have more than one iTunes account on the same PC. I've just bought my wife an iPad2 and want to create a separate account for her. Can I do that on the same PC as mine?

    Hi, can anyone tell me if I can have more than one iTunes account on the same PC. I've just bought my wife an iPad2 and want to create a separate account for her. Can I do that on the same PC as mine? Thanks.

    I would advise that you not set up a second Apple ID. It's really not necessary - having two Apple IDs won't affect how iTunes works with your iPads - and will just complicate matters. Each iPad will be treated independently and can be set to sync only the items you want on that particular iPad. If you really want to keep the two iPads separate, set up different iTunes libraries and have only those items you want on the related iPad in that library, rather than a different Apple ID. If you plan not to use a computer and just download directly to the iPads, you can again choose what apps and content each iPad gets.
    But answering your specific question, you can have content from up to five iTunes Store accounts on any one computer or iPad. To create a new iTunes Store account, you'll need a different email address, and from there you just create the account the same way you did the first one.
    Regards.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • I have multiple devices (imacs, lap tops and ipads) all connected to a NAS server.  Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife, and each have our own apple ID, and Itunes accounts, but all share the same media on NAS drives?

    I have multiple devices (iMacs, Lap tops, Ipads) all connected to a Nas Drive.  Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife and we each have our own apple ID's, Itunes etc, but share the same data on the hard drives?  So when she logs in, and sync's her ipads, they will sync with her stuff and when I do the same under my user account, on the same device, my ipads will sync with my stuff?

    You can share the same Apple ID for purchasng form the iTunes and app stores without any problems, but you should all used separate iCloud accounts with separate Apple IDs.  (You are not required to use the same ID for iCloud and other services as you do for the iTunes store.)  This will prevent you from ending up with merged data.  You should also use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

    iTunes Match is not sharable across Apple IDs. The best way to get the music on her iPad is to leave hers signed into her Apple ID on the iTunes Store and sync via USB.
