Can iTunes from 2 different computer use the same library?  (from wireless data storage device)

I purchased a wireless data storage device.  My iTunes content will be moved there and I'm planning on moving my wife's iTunes data to the wireless device.  Can both our iTunes share the same library?

One Apple ID can be shared for store purchases. On the iPhone go to Settings>Store and put in the ID. Then all the songs purchased with that ID can be downloaded from the iTunes store on the phone.
I hope that is what you were asking?

  • Sync iTunes Win(Bootcamp)/Mac using the SAME Library

    I know this question has ben asked a lot, but most of these questions are dealing with multiple physical units.
    I have a Mac Pro Quad Core that is running Win7 under Bootcamp. Therefore, I am using the same hardware for both operating systems.
    I have my iTunes Library (the whole Library, not just music files) pointing to a separate, internal drive. Both the Mac and Windows version of iTunes point to the same iTunes Library on the same drive. The Windows version of iTunes has Library organization turned off (mostly because the external drive is HFS+ and Windows gets cranky with that). To be clear: my iTunes Library lives on a drive that is not my boot drive and is not in my User Account directory.
    I am using the Mac OS iTunes to manage, maintain and organize the Library. The PC version of iTunes is strictly used as a jukebox. There is no cross contamination of OSes as far as file acquisition. I even sync my iPhone solely on the Mac side.
    For those unfamiliar with Bootcamp, the technology pushes me into either a Mac state or a PC state, I am not running the OSes concurrently.
    What I would like is to have whatever file management I do Mac-side be reflected PC side without me having to re-import the Library every time I make a change.
    Currently, if I add music on the Mac-side, or if I add comments, or anything else carried in the metadata, the changes will not reflect PC-side. I have to reimport the Library, which wipes my ratings and play count and is very annoying.
    I would like to know if it is possible to set up the PC version of iTunes to simply update the Library automatically, so that any change I make on the Mac-side is already reflected in the Windows version. For instance, I manage my play lists by comments - so I have "AOR Classic Rock" as a comment entry. If I add this comment to 10 songs on my Mac, I would like the Windows version of iTunes to just have "AOR Classic Rock" in the comments without me having to reimport the songs that changed.
    I do not expect reciprocity, since I don't believe Windows iTunes can change files on a Mac formatted drive, but that's okay. I just want the changes I make on the Mac to sync to the PC.
    You would THINK that having iCoud, I could use iCloud to sync all my iTunes settings and my Windows iTunes would mirror my Mac iTunes (at least for playlist, count and ratings). I do not have iTunes Match and am debating if its worth the cost. If iTunes Match will create the sync scenario I am looking for, it may very well be worth it.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    You'll need to install the appropriate drivers, and possibly move the library to a disk in a different format, so that each operating system can read and write to the drive. Then there is no reason why you can't open the "same" library in either system, and thus it will always be up to date. Moving back & forth between the OSs should be no more difficult than opening the same library on an external drive on a number of different systems. Provided all the content is in a standard layout, media folder inside the iTunes library folder, it should just work.

  • Why can't I export WMV's on my other computer's quicktime 7 pro, even though I can on my other computer using the same registration?

  • A suggestion for the mouse setting through persistence via SkyDrive/OneDrive: Add a check button to let the user tell if the mouse settings should be "restored" every time the user logs in a "different" computer using the same Microsoft Account.

    Every time I log in one of my 2 computers with Microsoft Account, I have to change the main button (left/right) setting, because the settings persistence via SkyDrive/OneDrive.
    I have different main mouse button settings in the computers.
    Those settings shouldn't be changed, if the account is not a new one, after all, if the user has different settings in old accounts, it means there must be a reason to do it (because of hardware and/or furniture restriction).
    Thus, a check button in the mouse settings' window that let the user tell if it should be changed or not would be welcomed.

  • Can several members of a household use the same library with different log ins

    Once you have downloaded the latest version of iTunes to a computer, can different members of the same family use the same library but with different log ins or do you need different computers?

    exactly:) you first gotta transfer the apps from your devices by connecting them and going to file and "transfer purchases" and it should bring the apps over
    PS: do make sure that the computer is authorized for all of the purchases do this
    -go to store at the very top of the page (usually up there with file,edit,view,and controls)
    -choose authorize this computer
    -enter the email address and password associated with the purchases you are transferring and hit authorize!!
    -quick transfer and done, you guys can share whatver you transfer to the library
    hope this helps:)

  • Can i have 2 Apple IDs using the same playlist from the same pc?

    can i have 2 Apple IDs using the same playlist from the same pc?

    Easiest way is to create separate computer logins with all your own info including your own iTunes library.
    I recommend each individual not have more than one AppleID because you will have purchases on multiple accounts 
    You can use more than one AppleID in an iTunes library.
    AppleID/iTunes =used for purchases.
    iTunes library = iTunes and all media on your computer.

  • Hi can someone tell me if it is possible to have two accounts (from different countries) in the same laptop?

    Hi can someone tell me if it is possible to have two accounts (from different countries) in the same laptop?

    Hi...
    The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside to make purchases.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."
    From here >  The Complete Guide to Using the iTunes Store | iLounge Article
    Billing policy is the same for both the iTunes as well as Mac App Stores.

    Thank you for helping.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.

    I am trying to deauthorize my audible account.  It says the user name and/or password are incorrect after I had just deauthorized the computer using the same user name and password and logging in to post this.  They should be the same password correct?

    Deauthorize Audible Account... always appears as a menu selection, even if you deauthorized Audible or never even had an account.
    Audible is a different account from iTunes and does not require the same username / password.

  • How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing?

    How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing. The program seems to be picking up the same songs from, for example, my user area and my public area in the C drive

    As above, Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library, however it is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve/merge ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.
    (If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed)

    It is always a good idea to uninstall before installing new, so the system registry entries are fresh
