    can I have two accounts on one imac

    You have no idea how happy i would be to be proved wrong on this .. there are loads of posts in the discussion forums saying its impossible. If you can point me to where we are going wrong it would be very much appreciated. This is what we have tried ...
    1. Create a 2 iTunes libraries on a single computer login (switching with the ALT key when starting itunes)
    2. Create a new user account on the computer, create an iTunes library on each individual login.
    In each scenario, the same thing happens. We can
    - Start iTunes in the right library
    - Log in to the iTunes store etc with each account.
    The problem comes as soon as you try to download a purchased item, ie if I buy a song on my iPhone then try to down load it from the "purchased items" of iTunes account it was purchased under. iTunes gives a message saying that if i download something bought under iTunes Account 2, iTunes account 1 will be disabled from downloading or auto-download for 90 days as "this computer is already associated with an Apple ID"
    Should probably have put this into the origianl post for clarity, apologies. i didnt really mean "logged in", we can log in to each iTunes account from the different libraries, but we can use the purchasing or download functionality - hopefully this makes more sense.
    If you know how to set this up properly, it would be amazing if you could share it here?
    Many thanks

  • Can you have two iPads on one iTunes account?

    Can i add two iPads to one iTunes account and then move one to another iTunes account at a later date?

    I sync three different iDevices with one iTunes account/iTunes library on my Mac. You can select the exact content that you want to sync to each device by customizing the sync settings for each device.
    If you want to sync the iPad with another iTunes account or iTunes library at a later date - you will lose all of the content on the iPad from the old iTunes account. You can only sync with one iTunes library at a time and if you consider the iTunes account to be what is in your iTunes library - meaning content that you bought with one particular Apple ID - then you can only sync one account at a time as stated.
    Perhaps if you defined or explained exactly what you mean by iTunes account, this could be clarified a little more.

  • Can I have two libraries on one iTunes program?

    I have two different iPods - one a nano, one a video - and I'm trying to create a way to install on the video iPod its own separate songs without having it import all the original nano's songs from its library. SO FRUSTRATING.
    Do I really have to import all 400 songs from my nano's library onto the video, and then go from there importing new songs for the video iPod? And why, when I installed the video iPod's iTunes CD, was a new iTunes application not created in order to keep the two different iPods' independent of one another?
    Any assistance would be immensely appreciated.

    First of all there can only be one iTUnes with one library on a user account in windows. There is afew programs that will create 2 librarys but you most likly will not need this.
    You can create 2 user accounts on windows for each iPOd, but thats usually for 2 people using one PC that want there own separate iTUnes and music.
    If both iPods are yours you will most likly want to set one ipod (Most Likly the nano) to "Auto update selected playlist" and select which playlist you want on that nano. to do this connect the nano, rightclick it in iTUnes, hit options and set it. then the video iPOd since its bigger in size you can leave it set on its default of "Auto update all songs".
    Another note just so you know, it is possiable to connect 2 ipods at the same time, but HIGHLY recommened NOT TO DO THIS because it can confuse iTUnes and the ipod service running in the background of windows and cause you and iTUnes major headaches

  • Can i Have Two Libraies on One iTunes?

    My dad and I are now owners of iPods, but we have different tastes in music and was wondering whether it is possible to have two different libraries in iTunes so that we can only put our own music on our separate iPods.

    You could also use one library and set up your iPods to update songs and playlists manually. Just remember that with manual updates you need to manually eject the iPod each time.

  • 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.

  • Can I have two accounts for one IPod touch?

    I have two homes, two computers (one in each home), and one IPod touch. I already have an account set up on one computer in the one home. I have a second home that I'm at about one week per month. I just want to be able to buy itunes at the second home and download them also to my one IPod. In other words I want to be able to get ITunes from two computers to the just one IPod. Is that possible? My son doesn't think I so.

    If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply. In this mode you can drag and drop whatever you want to the iPod from either library. You can also authorise each computer to use songs purchased from the same iTunes Store account:
    Using iPod with Multiple computers
    Managing content manually on iPod
    Syncing Music to iPod

  • Can I have Two iPods on one iTunes???Help Me!

    Hey There,
    I'm just wondering if I can have 2 ipods on the same iTunes (can i put my library on a friends new ipod?????)
    Help me! Last time i tried something with i tunes i lost my music.
    Thx

    Khiemke,
    Theres two ways to use One computer with 2 iPods and have each iPod have its own music, one is to creat 2 playlist, another is to create 2 user accounts in windows. This is all explained at the link below, personally I think the 2 user accounts in Windows is Best. If you go this route make sure "Fast User Switching" is OFF in windows, iTunes doesn't like this feature on.

  • Can I have two accounts on one email

    I need to change my apple id email but when i try to it says "already an apple id" I went to the old id and tryed to delete it but i saw you cant delete an id .so now i'm stuck with ,my normal id with all my data and old email, and an old one with no data with my new email so i need any way to use my normal id with my new email unless i can transfer all my data from one account to another?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Absolutely. Although you can only have one primary iCloud account, you'll need to add secondary accounts from system preferences > mail, contacts & calendars.

  • I have more music than 25,000 songs, can I have two accounts under one apple ID?

    Is there a way to add more songs or a second account to one apple ID?

    Just to be clear, iTunes Store purchases made with the same Apple ID being used for iTunes Match do not count towards the 25,000 song limit.
    This may help:

  • Can i have two iphones on one itunes account

    I have an iphone for personal and a new one for work. I want to have all the same information on both phones!! is th possibel?, and how do i do it?

    Yes, you can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups.

  • Can i have two accounts on one ipad

    Can I reset my 7 day old ipad mini back to as new so I can start again at the beginning? I am new to Apple and utterly confused. Please help!.

    Hello:
    I don't understand your question.  You can reset the iPad to factory settings, but you will lose anything that you have entered.
