Can I link two iTunes IDs on the same device?

Is it possible to have two iTunes IDs linked to an iPad Mini? I have purchased a lot of music/movies, books, etc and my wife has her own, new ID.

You can have content from two iTunes Store accounts in one library, and multiple libraries on a computer.

Can you have two itunes accounts on the same computer and if so how do you access them without syncing each others music?

Yes. Use separate iTunes libraries(launch iTunes with the Shift(Windows) or Option(Mac OS X) key held down as needed), or different user accounts on the computer.

What do you mean by, "synch two itunes accounts"? You don't sync iTunes accounts.

iTunes account= Used to make iTunes purchases.
iTunes library = All your media and what you see when you open iTunes.

Can I authorize mulitple apple ids on the same device so that what is purchased on either account will be loaded in both devices without having to use the same ID?
My wife has a laptop and an iphone 4s, I have a laptop and and iphone 4s, our two sons have our old iphone 3s, we have an old laptop for our sons to use. Our old iphones for our sons are deactivated as phones - so they are used as i-touches for songs, pictures and aps. I want to use icloud (which I'm new to) to hopefully have all four iphones and all three computers stay synced with at least music - if not aps and pictures. My wife has an apple ID and I have one. I'd like to authorize all three laptops for both apple IDs so that we will still have our own accounts, but everything either of us buys will be automatically loaded into all three laptops and all four iphones. Can this be done?
Thanks,

Each person in your home can have their own Apple ID provided it is tied the their own separate email address.
iTunes permits up to five authorized computers connected to a single Apple ID: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
For this all to work well, however, each user in your household should have a separate user account on the computer they commonly use.

give them distinct names. launch iTunes while holding the option (⌥) key, click on choose library when prompted, and select the iTunes folder of the desired library.
FWIW, there are 3rd party apps that help with managing multiple libraries, notably:
PowerTunes
iTunes Library Manager

Can I have two iCloud backup from the same device?

Hi,
I have done a hard reset on my iPhone 5S and now I am setting up as a new device. I do not want to use my old iCloud backup but I do not want to delete it. Just keep it just in case. But is there a way to create another backup, so If I want I can use the old or the new backup?

Who's your carrier?
That is weird, but the iPhone really is so picky when it comes to SIM cards and other assorted carrier locking annoyances.
The only reason I could say you're seeing that is if you've got SIM card for a different country. (Canada/USA)

iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
Note that when it says "publicly accessible location", it needs to be a place where everyone has read and write access. The most common such place is the Shared folder in the Users folder, but you can place the music elsewhere if you change the access permissions manually (don't start tinkering with permissions unless you're confident you know what you're doing and can reverse things if they get messed up).

How do I sync two ipods with two different IDs on the same computer?

How do I sync two ipods with two different IDs on the same computer?

Simply connect them. One computer with one iTunes can manage multiple devices. They're tracked by S/N but you might wish to assign them unique names so that you can track them yourself.
The only minor issue is app updating and purchases while on the computer. It's necessary to log out and back in to the "correct" ID. Much easier to do these things from the iPods.

How do I create two iTunes accounts under the same email address?

I've got my account duplicated -and charged for apps I already own- by using my email address as login instead of apple ID, but I've been told it's my fault so…
I'm trying to figure out
*How do I do to create two iTunes accounts under the same email and having different IDs?*
I mean, two accounts with different purchase history. It doesn't matter if billing address, or credit card are the same (or different) because none of them flag apps as "purchased"
I tried today from iTunes, but it tells me the email is taken.
Do you know any way a user can do it from our end? (website, iTunes, iPhone)
If you've got charged by apps twice, please don't say it here. I don't want my post being deleted again. Thanks.

Beavis2084:
Expired .mac accounts HAVE NO EMAIL. You own the id (which iTunes requests to be spelled in form of an email)
Also, FREE .mac accounts have no email either.
What you see in the screenshots is what I'm saying:
There's been a change in the way iTunes wants you to login. The iTunes reps see at their end what you see at the top of the window, which probably is the "migration" of the new login: Old login system, using ID (in form of email for iTunes)
BELOW you clearly see where says "ID" and both have the email as login.
(again, that .mac email doesn't exist and NEVER DID)
That's the NEW login: your EMAIL.
I'm sorry I didn't explain it better the first time. I wrote about this so many times to iTunes support reps to prevent them to "read" what their system says that I gave it for settled. (not to mention that my first post was removed because "it lacks of interest for others"
I own an apple ID, given away with the purchase of a new computer (nothing small by the way) and when that happens (and never subscribe for a paid membership), you use ANOTHER email to be related to your account.
Now that AGAIN apple asks you for using your EMAIL (non-apple in our case) instead of your ID (which you can't use or you will never get a notification again!) the system believes there are two accounts.
It's like your credit card bank changing the address for sending the payments. You are STILL paying, but getting a higher rate because their CHANGED the address and the check never arrives.
In this case, signing in with a different string, makes the system believe there are two accounts. And that probably is under the policy which probably states purchases are not charged twice for SAME ID, and SAME iPhone… and you used a different ID, so it must be fair (sarcasm). Who told you to do so? Bad boy!
