Download music from multiple apple IDs on to same Mac Pro?

I use my apple ID on our home MacPro. My wife just purchased an album from the store with her apple ID on her phone. How do I add it to our iTunes library? It's telling me that if I download it from hers, I won't be able to download anything from my apple ID for 90 days. There has to be a way to add it to our library. How? Thanks for any help.

Open itunes, connect her iphone, click File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
Make sure the computer is authorized for her account.

Each user account may have its own Apple ID.

(I am a novice!)

Mac OS X has an awesome built-in application for this purpose called Image Capture
You will find it in your Applications folder on your Mac.
If your USB device is connected, you should see it in Image Capture as well adn download the images.
Image Capture can also connect to scanners, digital cameras, USB drives, you name it.....

Accessing purchases made with 1 Apple ID from multiple Apple IDs

I have been sharing 1 Apple ID to make all purchases and homeshare for the household. As I now begin to add new IOS devices (IPAD, Iphones, etc.) and the kids want their own IDs for purchases and icloud syncs, is it possible to access music and app purchases made under the original id with the new id(s) so tey dont lose any of their existing stuff? Put another way, can multiple ids access purchases made under one master id?
Thanks

I happened to stop at the Apple store yesterday for a separate issue and had a discussion about iCloud. Seems like this is how iCloud works (also, there's another thread on this forum that explains it well).
Each member of the family can have their own iCloud ID, which will be used for Mail, Calendar, Contacts, Apps, Bookmarks, Media, Photos, etc. and having this content synced automatically with a Mac (computer). The iCloud IDs work in tandem with the associated Apple ID — so while you cannot have multiple Apple IDs, you can certainly have multiple iCloud IDs tagged with a certain Apple ID.
While all this makes sense from the iOS device standpoint, I'm unclear on how things will sync with a Mac computer, especially if the family uses a single iMac with multiple login IDs for various members. For instance, I currently have an iMac and iTunes content resides in my Public folder, which my wife can still access when she logs in with her login ID. I'm guessing that I'll be able to set up her iCloud ID using her login, set up my iCloud ID using my login, while both our iMac logins will retain the same Apple ID. This would take care of syncing Photos, Contacts, Calendars, etc.
Another (not sure if unique) problem I face is our Address Book — right now, we have one GIANT address book with different groups set up. Certain groups sync to her iPhone, while others to mine. Some contacts are common between both of us. I'm hoping that if she/I updates a common contact, then the change will be reflected in both our groups of contacts. I hope this makes sense — for instance, I update a contact named Joe, and he's on my group of contacts in my iPhone. Hope iCloud updates the master contact card for Joe on the iMac, which would then automatically trigger the update on my wife's group of contacts—that Joe also belongs to— leading to an update on her iOS device as well.
Apologies for the lengthy response..

My new ios 7 in my iphone 4 will not let me download music from my apple computer. It says it doesn't have updated itunes. But when I try to get updated itunes, my computer will not support it. WHY

My new update on my ipone 4, will not download music from my Mac computer. It says I must update my itunes, when I try to up date on the Mac, it says it has already downloaded the lastest version. How do I get music on my phone

Check the required specs for the latest version of iTunes and iOS. What kind of Mac computer do you have and what OS does it have on it. Also, what kind of processor do you have, Intel?

Can multiple apple IDs have the same billing address??

So yea is it possible for multiple or more than one apple IDs to have the same billing address, like those created for use by members restrictively within a specific family for example??

It is possible but no more than 3 different Apple IDs for the same credit card. If you need more than three (more members of the family or a small business with 4 or more people who need individual Apple IDs) you can use one or more iTunes gift cards instead of a regular credit or debit card.

How do you download music from itunes on pc to itunes on mac

how do you download music from itunes on pc to itunes on mac

If both computers are on the same network, you could just mount the Windows machine and drag and drop the songs from the PC to your Mac, and then add them to your Mac iTunes Library by importing.
That's the simplest way I know...

Will iTunes Match work with songs purchased from multiple Apple IDs?

My parents have an iTunes library with about 10,000 songs on it. It's basically one big mesh of my family's purchases from over the years, using multiple Apple ID's and some of which I don't even recognize and/or remember. It's become very problematic now that my mother wants me to get a lot of the music "out of the guts of the computer" so she can listen to them on her iPhone and iPad.
I'm assuming iTunes Match is the solution, but I just want to be sure that the "match" part pertains not only to purchases from outside sources, but also purchases from other Apple ID's as well. I won't have to do the whole "authorize this computer" stuff, right? Like I said, some of the songs were purchased using old ID's that we don't have access to anymore. Also, if I sign up my mom for an iTunes Match account, and she wants to play songs that I purchased using my own Apple ID, that's not going to change *my* account or authorizations in any way, is it?

Hi Rubberbucket,
The music information for iTunes Match is obtained from the user's iTunes music library and does not depend on the Apple ID under which the music was purchased from the iTunes Store. See this article -

Is there any way to do this?
Thank you,

Just add the songs to iTunes then sync the iPhone.

Multiple Apple IDs on the same computer

We have three separate Apple IDs in our family and I need to store the iTunes media for each on the same desktop (under separate Windows user accounts). When I start to download the media for a second account on the computer, I get a message that the computer is already associated with an Apple ID and if I continue the download, I won't be able to download content for the first account for 90 days. How do I set up the respective Apple IDs and iTunes libraries so all three users can store and access their own content from their individual Windows accounts?

Purchased music from multiple itunes accounts on the same computer

I mistakenly opened up two itune accounts and have purchased music using both accounts. The problem is that itunes won't let me download my purchased music from one of the accounts to my ipod. It will download all of the music from account "a" but none from account "b". Help please.

Hey chawk32,
Just play the purchased content from account B in iTunes. That should make a authorization dialog box pop up. After authorizing the computer iTunes can transfer that data to the iPod.
You can also click store inside iTunes then authorize computer.

Is there any way to combine multiple Apple IDs for the same individual?

I have two Apple IDs, one of which has a .mac email address. Both have the same name and physical address. With the new iTunes and the coming iCloud, it would be convenient to combine the two for purchase history and access, app updates, etc.
How can I do this?

So far it seems you can't.
The only thing that becomes a problem would be purchase history I guess, but you can use Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer to share any purchases from one account to the other.

Move itunes music and playlists from one disk to another on same mac pro

I was running Maverick 10.9.1 on my early 08 Mac Pro. I was having significant problems with the system locking up and having to shut it down manually. After discussing the problem with an Apple Support Rep, I executed a clean installed of Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on a new HDD. I need to move my itunes library from the old Maverick HD to the new Snow Leopard HD. My Time Machine is corrupted for the old drive. How can I move my music and playlists from itunes on the old drive Maverick to the new Snow Leopard drive? I will also need to move my address book contacts. Any advice will be appreciated.

Thanks. This solved the iTunes problem. Any suggestion as to how I cam move or copy my address book to the new HD? I can't find the location of the address book files on the old HD.

How do I share music from different itunes accounts in the same Mac, in different users account on that Mac with different iPhones?

Hi
My wife and I share the same Mac.
She has her session and I have mine thus each of us has our iTunes session with our own music and settings.
She has her iTunes account and I have mine too.
And..;)...she has her Iphone and of course I also have mine.
So, the big question:
Both like music that the other has bought but we do not want to buy it twice! (through her account and mine).
Is there a way to share music I purchase so she can have it in her iTunes session and therefore have it also on her iPhone when she syncs..and of course viceversa for me too?
It goes without saying that although we like music the other one has, we do not like all of the music, so basically we want to have the possibility to share those special songs we like so we can have them both in our phones and individual Itunes sessions.
Was that clear or I lost you???
Any answer will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

First of all if you havent done it yet i think u shold authorize the mac on both accounts on itunes. You also can switch the accounts on your Iphones at itunes while you are in the internet adn download the music.
This is just an idea you should think of. For sure there are other ways I dont know.
