Can I share itunes purchases with my partners account on the same iphone

Both my partner and I have purchased iTunes on separate accounts. We want-to combine our purchases onto a single iPhone  playlist is this possible?

Yes, but they must be in the same iTunes instance on the same computer.

  • Share iTunes purchases between two user accounts on the same Mac?

    I have a Macbook Pro, for my bride and I, and a Macbook, for our kids. Both Macs are authorized on my iTunes account.
    So, how can I share an iTunes Store purchased song on my account with my wife's? I understand how to turn on sharing and she can see my songs in iTunes on her account, but she cannot synch them to her iPod.
    Now, I'm allowed to authorize an iTunes account on up to five Macs. I have two. But I have four accounts. Either way, I won't be exceeding five copies, but can't find a way to get a song I bought in my iTunes to my wife's iPod.
    We use the same iTunes account but don't want to have to buy things twice to get them on her iPod. Just seems weird that I could put it on five machines but not two user accounts on the same one.

    On my Mac Pro I moved the entire library to "Macintosh HD/Shared/iTunes". Changed the Folder location in iTunes Preferences->Advanced->General to point to that location. Then in each user change the Music/iTunes folder to be an alias or link pointing to the Shared/iTunes folder. You will likely need to change the permissions on that folder to give everyone the ability to read and write. Do that via "Get Info" on the iTunes folder using Finder. I'd suggest backing everything up before you do this.

    You can share as long as you use the same Apple ID.

  • HT3309 Share mail settings with new user account on the same mac?

    I have had to set-up a new user account on my mbp to use a new piece of software which refused to work on the main user account. I want to transfer the mail settings from the original one simply so that mail opens in an identical way whichever account I'm siging in with.

    Oops.
    If you just need Mail settings, only copy
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    All the messages are in
    ~/Library/Mail

    Can you share Itunes purchases with family members without them using your Apple ID?

  • Hello, can i share itunes match with the other members of my family?

    Hello, can i share itunes match with the other members of my family?

    No, sharing match is not included in the family share. The only way is to use the same Apple id on all devices but this may present problems if your family members have their own Apple id.

  • Can I share itune match on separate iCloud accounts my wife just got iPhone

    Can I share itune match on separate iCloud accounts my wife just got iPhone

    Yes.  iTunes Match is tied to the Apple ID you have set for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores.  You can share your ID for purchasing, and thus iTunes Match, and still maintain separate iCloud accounts using a different ID on one or both phones.  The ID you use for purchasing does not need to be the same as the one used for other services such as iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, etc.

  • How can I verify credit of an itunes card that has already been redeemed?  My Grandson and I both redeemed itune cards on our shared account about the same time. There isn't a credit balance after his purchase?

    How can I verify credit for an itunes card that has already been redeemed?  My Grandson and I both redeemed itune cards on our shared account about the same time. There isn't a credit balance after his purchase?

    Have you checked the account's purchase history to see if anything could have used up the balance : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store - Apple Support ?
    If there aren't any purchases then try logging out and back into the account (e.g. on your iPad tap on your id in Settings > Stores and then log back in) and see if a balance then shows on it. My account's balance shows at the top right of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, by clicking on my name towards the top right of the iTunes screen, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option. On my iPad devices it shows at the bottom of, for example, the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id (or you can view your account via Settings > Stores and it should show on the screen that you are taken to)

  • Can you share music between 2 Apple ID's on the same network?

    Can you share music between 2 Apple ID's on the same network?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can share content between 2 libraries that have different ID's for the iTunes Store, yes.
    You need to make sure that both libraries are using the same ID for home sharing though (from the File menu)

  • How can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

    how can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

    You do not want to edit material from different frame rates on one timeline. You CAN do this, but it is a very bad idea - and this is why.
    Once you establish the sequence frame rate - lets say it is PAL material at 25fps, any material that you drop into the sequence other than 25 fps will have to be changed to play at 25 fps. If the material you add is NTSC (29.97), FCP will DROP 5 frames per sec to bring the frame rate down to 25 fps. Which 5 get thrown away? Every 6th one. This yields a funky cadence that becomes even more complex as as there are also interlaced fields (DV/NTSC is an interlaced format). Oh, and by the way, the image sizes are different as well. DV/PAL has 576 lines of resolution and DV/NTSC has 480. FCP has to scale up the NTSC to fit the PAL frame.
    You do not want FCP adjusting these things on the fly. You want to do a thoughtful (and time consuming) conversion so that you end up with all your material in one format with the best possible image from the conversion process. Compressor can do an adequate job with Frame Controls turned on. The Natress Standards Conversion FCP plugin is another way to go. A third option is to find a post house that can do the conversion for you using a hardware based process.
    The good news is, once everything is in the same format, editing it will be painless and the output process very quick.
    Whatever frame rate/ image size you select, I'd suggest using ProRes for the codec. It is 4:2:2 color and will withstand color correction and composting with much more grace than any variant of DV based codecs.
    Have fun.

  • HT4314 Can I have more than one Game Center account on the same Apple ID? If so, how do I set it up?

    I am playing Clash of Clans on my iphone and on my iPad. I would like to connect each of my games to a different Game Center ID so I don't lose them if something happens to my device, but I can't figure out how to do that without creating new Apple IDs for each device and I don't want to do that. Any advice? Can I have more than one Game Center account under the same Apple ID? If so, how do I set it up? Thanks!

    If you use the same account see the following to separate Messages and FaceTime between the two iPod see:

  • Can I have an ATT account and a O2 account on the same Iphone?

    Can I have an ATT account and a O2 account on the same Iphone? So that when I am in the UK I use the O2 sim card and in the states use my ATT sim card? I would basically have two valid authorized accounts on one Iphone.
    Allan

    I don't believe that the phone would recognize the other sim card as legit. The US iPhone is locked to ATT and the UK iPhone is locked to O2.

  • How do I share itunes purchases with my daughter?

    I have purchased some songs on itunes for my daughter who is 11 so doesn't have her own itunes store account.  How can I share them with her?  We use the same computer with Windows 7, with different user logins and both have our own itunes library.  Home sharing doesn't seem to work, maybe because we are on the same computer? Any suggestions?

    If you make sure that your iTunes account is authorised on her version of iTunes (Store > Authorise This Computer) then you should be able to copy those songs from your windows logon on to her logon and then add them to her iTunes library (File > Add File To Library, or Add Folder To Library) - so you probably need to have separate copeis of the songs

  • Can I share my iTunes with another User Account on the same Mac?

    Hi There
    I have created a new user account on my MacBook for my Boyfriend to have his own login, the only trouble being he syncs his iPod and iPhone with my iTunes library.
    Is it possible to share iTunes across the 2 User Accounts on the same Mac?

    I have followed those instructions and successfully have shared my music. Now for the next question!
    How can we both purchase songs that automatically update on each others account? (For example if I purchase a song, it won't appear on his Library)

  • How can I share itunes music with others who use this computer??

    I want to share my music with my granddaughter and she wants to share hers with me. We use the same computer but log in with different accounts. If the music is in the computer is seems there should be a way to share all the music.  Can we do that??

    There are sharing abilities built into iTunes.  In the iTunes Help menu just type in "share."
    I personally don't care for the way iTunes shares music.  I have taken a different route.  I use file sharing to share my Music folder with my wife.
    From the Finder window right or control click on Music.
    Select Get Info
    At the bottom of Get Info click on the lock icon to unlock changes
    Under Sharing click on the + to add access to another user.
    Select you daughters id. and add her.
    Give her Read Access.
    Click on the Gear icon on the bottom and select "Apply to enclosed items."
    Have you daughter do the same for you.  You will now have access to each others music.
    There are several ways you can listen to each others music.
    To listen to just one song I just use the Finder method.  Open Finder and click in the spotlight search field (upper right).  Type in some criteria (i.e. Artist, partial title, album name).  Files will appear in the finder window.  Select the icon view option.  You should see album artwork.  Move your mouse over the track you want to listen to and your should see a play button appear. Not sure which OSX versions support this (10.6 does).  Click on the play button.  If you don't see a play button you can play by selecting Get Info.  There is a play button in the preview section.  You can also play with Quick View.
    To listen to a playlist you will need a multimedia player like VLC (google it if you don't have it).
    From iTunes you can export your playlist from File > Library > Export Playlist... (.m3u works well)  Give your daughter read write access to the playlist file and from the Open With entry select VLC. (use the get info method)
    Copy the playlist file to you daughters drop box in her public folder.  Have your daughter use the get info function to make sure her copy still points to VLC and not to iTunes.  If you open the playlist file with iTunes it may copy the tune files to her library. (don't want to end up with multiple copies of tunes on your Mac)
    Double clicking on the playlist file will open VLC and begin playing.  There is a playlist button on VLC to view, sort and select tunes from the list.
    Phew!  Hope that helped.
    Dan
    P.S.  Haven't tested this with copy protected stuff.
