Can I have one itunes account, but have two devices that used different email accounts?

I have an iPad2 and want to buy an iPod Touch for my daughter. I want it to use her email address, but use my itunes account. Can that be done?

The Apple/iTunes ID (which is a email address) is seperate from any mail accounts yu have on the iPod/iPad. Both devices can use the same Apple/iTunes ID but have different email address for the mail accounts on the devices.

If you haven't set up your own Apple ID already don't. I suggest you use the same apple ID as your wife's. The alternative is to do this http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848. It's not efficient as you have to swap apple id's to update apps under both IDs. 20/20 being hindsight, I would have never created a 2nd apple ID for my wife.
Hope this helps.

HT1203 Can I share one iTunes account for my iPad and two I phones? If so, how can I get the purchased apps and music on all three devices? Do I need a home computer,

Can I share one iTunes account for my iPad and two I phones? If so, how can I get the purchased apps and music on all three devices? How do I sync all the devices to have the same music and apps?

You can set up an iCloud account on each one (the SAME iCloud account using the same AppleID on each) and then sync via iCloud.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262\
However, an iCloud backup nor sync contains purchased content - that is available for redownload from the iTunes and App stores (so no need to waste iCloud space storing it for you).
So, for purchased content, you will have to download it on each device - just use the same AppleID and download each item on each device.
Without a computer to aid the sync'ing, downloading the purchased content on each device is the only way.
P.S audiobooks cannot be re-downloaded once purchased (all other content can be), so without a computer to save, store and move the audiobook files around, you will only be able to put those on one device - the one you first purchase it on.

How many ipads can sync to one itunes account?

how many ipads can sync to one itunes account?

You can use a single Apple ID with a maximum of ten devices and computers (combined). Only five of them can be computers. So if you're only authorizing iPads and no computers, then you can authorize 10 iPads with one Apple ID.
Here's some verbiage from Apple's Terms and Conditions:
Association of Associated Devices is subject to the following terms:
(i) You may auto-download iTunes Auto-Delivery Content or download previously-purchased iTunes Eligible Content from an Account on up to 10 Associated Devices, provided no more than 5 are iTunes-authorized computers.
(ii) An Associated Device can be associated with only one Account at any given time.
(iii) You may switch an Associated Device to a different Account only once every 90 days.
(iv) You may download previously-purchased free content onto an unlimited number of devices while it is free on the iTunes Service, but on no more than 5 iTunes-authorized computers.

HT1420 How can I merge one iTunes account into my other one. I have a work laptop that I've had one library one (work email address) and I also have a home library iTunes account (gmail address) but I want it all under one accnt.

I have two iTunes libraries (one under my gmail address and one under my work email address). My work laptop is usually how I access my account and in the past 3 months that laptop has had to be replaced twice, causing me to redo my entire library. Each time, the laptop was not deauthorized, of course and I had to go through all that rigamarole. I have all of my music backed up and am able to also retrieve anything purchased over the years from the cloud, but once i get it set up and authorize the laptop to both of the email address accounts, some of the items that are in the gmail library will not play. It says that it cannot locate. At one point, a friend spent a lot of time getting it to finally recognize everything (a lot of that music that said cannot locate was from burned CD's or mp3s downloaded, not purchased from iTunes). So there is that issue and I'm not sure how to fix that.
The other thing is that I would like to have ALL of my items under one iTunes account (my personal gmail) in the event that i no longer work for this company and have no access to that email address as it will be turned off. How can I remove one email and merge all purchases over to the gmail address account?
Thanks!

You cannot combine actual accounts (as in iTunes Store account).
You can combine the music into a single iTunes collection on a computer. There's many ways to do this. There are some utilities to assist with keeping maximum metadata (ratings, playcount, etc.) but I am not familiar with Windows platform ones to do this, though I am sure a web search of merge iTunes library would uncover some.

Can i have two devices sharing one itunes account

i currently have my iphone synced with my itunes account, i have just bought a ipod and want it to share the same itunes account, library etc, how do i do this without wiping it off my phone when ading the new ipod ??

This won't be a problem, iTunes will see the new device as a separate device, it will have its own settings under iTunes, you can set it up to sync the same content or different content to the first device, it will have no effect on how the first device syncs with iTunes.

How can I have two devices with separate iTunes accounts on the same computer without sharing libraries?

I have an iPhone 3s and my sister has an iPhone 3. We use them only as iPods. We each have our own iTunes account, but we have to share a computer. How can we both syn our devices without sharing our music and app libraries?

The most reliable way would be to set up individual user accounts in WIndows. Then each of your iTunes libraries will be completely separate.

Can I share one itunes account with two computers?

I have an itunes account set up with one email address. It was originally set up on a PC and my two daughters have Ipods that are synched to this computer. I finally got my own ipod (yea!) and want to use it with my macbook. I tried to download songs using the same email and my purchased songs were not able to be played on the macbook. Can I share this account or do I need to set up a separate Itunes account for the macbook?

eyeinit,
You can authorize your iTunes account on up to 5 computers at a time.
However, purchased music is downloaded to the first machine to download it, but these articles have more information on moving your music between authorized computers:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93063
This one is for moving all your music using an iPod as a storage drive

How many iphone devices can be on one itunes account

I already have an iphone and ipod touch on my one laptop and have the one itunes on the laptop. I am wondering if I can put another iphone onto the laptop and sync it to the itunes without whipping anything off the computer or the iphone and ipod touch already on the account. I NEED HELP PLEASE. X

Now what about this. Person A is married to Person B and there is only 1 computer. Can Person A have their own login and access to their playlists and Person B have their own login and access to their playlists which would be different than Person A's with 2 different libraries?

Two computers, two iphones.....can we share one itune account?

Sorry in advance if I sound alittle confused...
I have an itunes account and have purchased a number of apps that my husband would like to sync to his new 3G phone using his computer.
It would also be easier to have both our charges billed to the same credit card.
We also have very different tastes in music so I would prefer not to mix libraries.
How can we do this?
(He downloaded itunes to his computer but I stopped him before he registered his phone)
Thanks,
Kathy

Use the single iTunes account on both computers, and only download content on the computer you want that content to be on.

How can I delete one iTunes account

for stupid reasons I have three Apple ID's and iTunes accounts. I want to keep just one.
Reason is that one of the old accounts keeps popping up when I want to update app's on my iPhone.
This account does not work, it keeps asking questions about credit card info and about de region where this account applies.

Copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

Why would you want to try to program a doubly-charged carbon ion (C++), anyway? It's just going to find an oxygen ion or aromatic ring to react with, no matter what you do. You're sure not going to steer it towards another cation without going to Fermilab or CERN (Yes, I understand they use LabVIEW there).
