Can I have more than one user account on my Ipod touch?

I have an account on my IPod touch and would like to add an account for my son using his own laptop and itunes account is that possible?

An iPod touch cannot be synched to more than one computer at a time. You can have content from more than one iTunes Store account, but that content either has to be collected onto a single computer for synching to the iPod, or downloaded directly from the iTunes Store.

  • Can you have more than one user account on an Ipad

    can you have more than one account on the ipad.

    But...
    You CAN connect an iPad to multiple Apple ID's, one-at-a-time, if you're willing to share a combined pool of apps, music, movies, photos, podcasts, and perhaps, email accounts, and sync things manually.
    First, uncheck the option to 'automatically sync' mobile devices in the preferences for each iTunes account, so that you're not accidentally installing or removing content when you connect the iPad to a computer.
    Here's how we do it:
    I have a MacBook with two user accounts and two Apple ID's: "Hers"-used only for iTunes/iPad manual sync-ing and backup; and "Mine", used for all my Mac programs, plus iPad Apps that I'm interested in.
    The iPad2 is her only computing device, used primarily for email and web-browsing.
    On her iPad2, we have a combined 'pool' of apps, photos, and music.
    We use her Apple ID for her email, and to sync and back up.
    I use my Apple ID to download a lot of free apps to my MacBook.
    In the App Store, I sign out of her Apple ID and use my Apple ID to transfer and update the apps I want to try out. Then I can delete them from her iPad when I'm done 'playing', yet leave them on my MacBook for future re-installation, if desired.
    To simplify email privacy, we've configured the iPad Mail app exclusively for her MobileMe and Hotmail accounts. I connect to my email accounts with the Safari browser, or from my MacBook.
    Hope that helps!
    I'm not certain how iOS 5 and iCloud might enhance or restrict my ability to manage this in the future.

  • Can I have more than one user account on itunes?

    My wife and I currently have a laptop each, and so I have my itunes account through my macbook and my wife has hers through her macbook.
    We are looking at getting a Mac Mini, as my wife's macbook is on it's last legs, and we would like to have both itunes accounts on the new Mac to sync our phones/ipod/ipad with. Is this possible? I don't wish to pay for the music my wife buys, and she has no interest in paying for Apps i use etc. Would it be possible to run 2 itunes accounts through 1 itunes on 1 mac?

  • HT2534 Can I have more than one iTunes account on an iPod.

    I want to set up two iTunes accounts on my devices so that my son can buy products from a separate account? Can I do that?

    Yes.
    - Go to settings>Store and sign out and sign into other account.
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • Can you have more than one user on the new ipad?

    Can you have more than one user on the new ipad?

    You cannot set up more than one user account on the iPad if that is what you mean.
    Obviously families will share an iPad, but they are really meant to be single user devices with one Apple ID only on the iPad. Multiple ID's on one iPad can become a bit of a hassle to deal with.
    There is no way to lock apps or email accounts so that can become an issue as well. If you use the built in mail app for email, whoever is using the iPad can read your email.

  • Can i have more than one icloud account on my apple id

    Can I have more than one icloiud account on one apple id

    No: but it costs nothing to create another Apple ID and open a new iCloud account with that. The only caveat is that you must associate a different email address with the new Apple ID from that with the old ID (since the address will itself become the ID) - you could open a free email address with Yahoo or Gmail.

  • Can I have more than one itunes account on my apple tv?

    Can I have more than one itunes account on my apple tv?  We have two accounts in our family and would like to be able to switch between them.

    Thank you.  What I was really trying to find out is if there is a limit on switching iTunes accounts - I have a vague memory of reading that changing from one iTunes store account to another was going to be limited in some way, but maybe this is on iTunes itself?  Or perhaps my memory is incorrect?   We have two iTunes accounts and swap back and forth regularly on our iPhones and iPads to buy and update apps without a problem.  I couldn't find any reference to it on a quick search yesterday so what I have done with the AppleTV is leave it set to one account, and we watched the other account content via my Macbook.

  • Can you have more than one iTunes account with home sharing, Can you have more than one iTunes account with home sharing

    Can you have more than one itunes account at one time with apple tv

    My understanding is that the home sharing is based off of being on the same Wifi.  So if someone brings their laptop to your house and connects to your Wifi and they have home sharing on they can connect so you can see his/her iTunes library on your iTunes. 
    I haven't tried this though.  We have two laptops at home, both using my iTunes account and I can see each other's iTunes library, which I'm guessing is what you're probably doing now.  I'd be interested to know if my thought above is true. 

  • Can you have more than one Itunes account on one computer to keep your accounts separate?

  • Can I have more than one iCloud account?

    Can I have more than one iCloud account?

    One option is to start backing up one of them to your computer using iTunes instead.  To do this, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and turn off iCloud Backup.  After that the device will start automatically backing up to your computer when you sync it with iTunes.
    Another option is to migrate your iPad, along with a copy of the iCloud data to a different account.  To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep on it to the camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep on your iPad, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes the account from your iPad, not from iCloud; your phone won't be effected by this), provide the password to turn off Find My iPad and choose Keep on My iPad when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create the new account and choose Merge to upload your data to the account.  The disadvantage of this is that once your phone and iPad are on different accounts, they will no longer sync data with each other using iCloud.

  • Can I have more than one iCloud account on my iPad?

    Can I have more than one iCloud account on my iPad?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only have one primary account, you can add secondary accounts via settings > mail, contacts and calendars.
    Secondary accounts don't have all the features of primary accounts, such as Photostream.

  • Contacts & iCloud: can you have more than one iCloud account syncing with Contacts on the Mac?

    I want to set up a shared iCloud account for multiple users in a (very) small office environment, where several new iOS devices and, for the moment, two Macs (2012 13" MacBook Pro and 2013 Mac Mini) will be able to read/write to a shared Contacts account – and at the same time maintain a second, personal iCloud account linked to the same Contacts app on one machine, which account's contacts data will remain private and inaccessible to the other Macs/devices which are likewise using the shared account.
    Can this be done? (I.e., can Contacts app on a Mac include separate iCloud accounts?)
    If so, how to set it up?
    Thanks

    Thanks for your answer. There's no problem with others accessing that Mac – it's used by one person only – my question is can you add a second iCloud account to Contacts. Over the past two days I had tried to add the shared iCloud account to Contacts and kept getting failures. But maybe the server was down or the ISP was weird: your response assumes it can be done and so, to my embarrassment, I tried again just now and violá, it's done. Thanks again.
    P.S. Finding a simple presentation that makes clear you can have more than one iCloud accounts syncing to Contacts at the same time was very hard to find, either from Apple or others on the web. Maybe I don't know how to search, but they could do with a clear explanation of this for the uninitiated.
