  • I bought my daughter an ipod. Can I have two seperate itunes libraries on one computer? If so, how do I set this up?

    I bought my duaghter an ipod. Can I have two seperate itunes libraries on one computer? If so, how do I set this up?

    I followed these instructions & have created a new library file. However, all my music now appears in the new library as well as my own. (I bought my daughter an ipod nano for christmas & want to separate itunes libraries on one computer). How can this be so difficult?

  • Ok... So can you have two seperate itunes accounts on the same computer?

    My dad is getting an ipod for christmas... and well I don't want him on iTunes draining all of my money. Is there a way that you can have two seperate accounts on one computer?

    Yes. If you want separate iTunes accounts, the easiest way is to set up 2 users on the computer, each with their own iTunes library.
    If the two phones share the same iTunes account this is not necessary.

  • Can I have two address books on one computer

    Hi,
    I have my standard address book I use and love. I am an artist and forever having to make slide labels. I have used many programs and databases to do this task. To my surprise address book would accomplish this amazing well. I just don't want to combine my art label information with my address stuff? So can I have two address files on one mac?

    CC,
    you can add a new user account on your Mac (open system preferences / accounts) and start fresh there with an empty AddressBook.
    If you want to fill this with a part of your original AB, select those and export as vCards. Drop this export file in your shared folder so you can access that from the new user account. Open AB ther and import the vCards

  • Can I have two seperate iTunes lists for two iPods on the same computer?

    I have two nanos, one for me and one for my daughter. Can we manage two seperate download lists when we plug in to the same computer.
    The additional complication...her nano has a smaller memory than mine, so her's wouldn't hold all the songs anyway.
    Assistance would be appreciated!
    Happy holidays

  • I have got an ipod and now an iphone can I have two ids on the one computer or need to use same

    I have an Ipod and have just got an Iphone  4S can I have two different ids on the one email address

    You can us more than one Apple ID/iTunes account on one computer.See:
    iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
    It is simpler to use one account though.

  • Can you have two seperate iTunes's on one computer?

    Okay, I have and love an iPod nano 4GB White English. I have Windows XP, and I have iTunes on it, but we do not have seperate User Accounts for some reason, we have individual folders. My iTunes is in my folder, our main music "jukebox" program is Windows Media Player, all but I use it.
    I am thinking of getting my sister an iPod nano 1GB White English for Christmas (early to think, I no, but...). However, will she be able to have a SEPERATRE iTunes from mine (we each have our own songs, we do not share), if she puts in in her folder? Or no? Do you have to have seperate User Accounts? Please tell me.

    You can choose the update option "automatically update selected playlists only" which would allow you to create a playlist specifically for each iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used by the other iPod. Make your playlist a Smart playlist and limit the size to just below the advertised capacity of your iPod Nano (around 1800MB for a 2G). Another way of course is to choose to "manually manage songs and playlists" and update the iPod manually. You can read more about playlists at these links:
    iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
    How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
    For info:
    The iPod offers three ways to transfer music from your computer. You can select one of the following update modes from the iPod Preferences menu in iTunes (Edit=>Preferences=>'iPod' tab):
    1) Automatically update all songs and playlists. This is the default mode, in which your entire music library, including playlists, is automatically synced to your iPod. If the music library on your computer exceeds the iPod storage capacity, you are prompted to select a different update method.
    2) Automatically update selected playlists only. With this option, iTunes automatically copies the playlists you have selected to the iPod when you connect it to the computer.
    3) Manually manage songs and playlists. You can also choose to transfer music to the iPod manually. This allows you to drag and drop individual songs and playlists from iTunes to the iPod.

  • Can I have 2 seperate iTunes on my computer?

    The current one I have is my brothers.
    We don't share the same interest in music and I would like my own. Is there a way to download another seperate itunes I can use for myself?

    Use separate iTunes libraries or user accounts on the computer. To create or switch between iTunes libraries, launch iTunes with the Shift(Windows) or Option(Mac OS X) key held down.

    Simplest way is to create a New User Account.
    Each user will then have their own iTunes library..
