Have a question about transferring purchases

I am clear on how to transfer purchases to an itunes install from an ipod, but if I authorize an itunes install with my apple ID, then transfer purchases there from an ipod, does that make them not available to the original itunes library where they were downloaded?
I want to authorize wy wife's itunes (she has her own account) with my ID and then transfer purchases made in my itunes over to hers via my ipod so we can share them. I am wondering if this then makes those songs not available to me any more in my itunes. Is it truly a "transfer" or is it really a "share" which is waht I want. I don't want to transfer them from my itunes library to hers, but rather allow her to have them so she can sync them to her ipod along with the songs she already has. I don't want her songs, so we won't be going the other way
Thanks!

Yes, I think I understand what you're asking now.
Your itunes store account can have up to 5 authorized PCs. So go ahead and authorize your wife's PC with YOUR account.
Sign out of her store account, then sign in with your store account. Go to store > authorize. Now her PC is authorized for both itunes store accounts.
Don't forget to sign out of your account and back into hers so she will not be using your account by mistake for future store downloads.
Now all that is left is to get the files onto her PC's hard drive and into itunes. The easiest way is Home Sharing, if both PCs are on your home network.
You could also use a USB stick if you don't have a home network. Post back if you need more info on all of that.

  • HT1296 I have a question about transferring files, photos etc, from my ipad air to my PC Windows XP and visa versa

    I want to know how to transfer files between my ipad air and my pc Windows XP.  I know I can't use icloud because my windows is XP, but there must be some easy way, I hope to transfer files back and forth.  If you know of a way or an app, is it user friendly?

    The way that you can transfer apps can vary depending upon the apps themselves. Many apps use iOS file sharing with iTunes. Read about file sharing here.
    iOS: About File Sharing - Support - Apple
    Some people use DropBox to move photos, videos and other files back and forth.
    Dropbox - Dropbox for iPad
    There are apps that will move files back and forth using USB and WiFi.
    File Manager - Folder Plus on the App Store on iTunes
    And of course  files can be transferred via email.

    Hi, I have a question about iCloud. I have an ipod 4th generation and im getting a 5th generation. i have lots of games such as subway surfers and temple run 2. I worked and played really hard on earning stuff and have also made in app purchases. Does iCloud save that kind of stuff?

    See:

    However, not all in-app purchases will transfer to another device. For which ones ill not see:

  • Question about transferring to new mbp

    I am a senior in high school this year and have had my macbook since 8th grade and can't even begin to say how much I love it! I am most likely going to be getting a new mbp in the near future for college and had a few questions about transferring files/applications over. I am pretty good with computers and yes I do realize that there is the migration assistant as well as time machine backups. I have kept time machine backups on an external drive ever since leopard and want to know when I get the new machine if I could just do a time machine restore. (Would this method keep the new ilife on the new mbp because I don't have 09) I also also upgraded the hdd from an 80gb to a 320 gb drive and have partitioned it to run win7 through bootcamp. Would win7 and all the settings automatically be transferred as well. In addition I am using virtual box to run ubuntu within osx. I have also downloaded countless applications online and wanted to know how they would transfer over If I don't have the disk or serial numbers to them. It seems it may be easier just to slap this hdd in the new mbp but I'm not sure if thats possible. Again thanks for the help

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    If your old Macbook is a Intel based machine it would be to your benefit to use Migration Assistant to get your new MBP up. With MA assistant you have options of transferring information from your Macbook from either Firewire, USB or Ethernet connections. MA will walk you through how to connect the two machines together and ask what data you want transferred. If the Macbook is Intel based and you choose all of the options MA will make a mirror of the settings, data etc.. onto the new MBP. If your old machine is a PPC machine it is strongly advised not migrate items such as applications to the new machine due to possible incompatibilities. MA will also ask if you want to use a Time Machine drive to migrate the data to the new machine so you do have options. If you choose that route remember Time Machine _does not_ back up Windows so you would not be able to migrate that information using MA.
    Your question has been asked many many times, I would recommend do a thread search and you will find some very useful information.
    Regards,
    Roger

    Hi I have a question about shooting in Raw with my Canon EOS 6d.
    I'm in the process of learning photography and my goal was to start shooting in raw.
    I have Photoshop CS5. When I tried to edit my images in raw I received an error message stating, "The photoshop camera raw plug-in did not recognize the format. If these files are from a camera, you may need to update your camera raw plug in."
    In researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6. My version of CS5 is 6.0.0.205. Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
    I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost. THANKS in advance!

    In researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6.
    That is correct. Your camera was first supported by Camera Raw 7.3. Camera Raw 7.3 will not work with CS5. You need CS6 or CC.
    Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
    I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost.
    It all depends on your preferred workflow and your budget.
    Using the DNG converter is free. There is no monthly fee. You use the converter to convert all Raw files from the EOS 6D to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5. That's an extra step every time - every photo. Some people don't like the extra step. Others don't mind.
    Camera raw, DNG | Adobe Photoshop CC
    Or you can upgrade to CS6 (non-Cloud) and pay the upgrade fee
    Creative Suite 6
    Or join the Cloud and pay the monthly fee
    Or join the Photoshop Photography Program (US9.99/month) and get PS CC+LR

    I have a question about extracting pages.  When I do the function, adobe saves the individual files as "<file name><space><page number>", so the files look like this "filename 1.pdf", "filename 2.pdf", "filename 3.pdf".  Without too many gory details, I am using excel to concatenate some data to dynamically build a hyperlink to these extraced files.  It casues me problems, however, for the space to be the the file name.  Is there any way to change the default behavoir of this function to perhaps use a dash or underscore instead of a space?

    No, you can't change the default naming scheme. You can do it yourself if you extract the pages using a script instead of using the built-in command.

    I have a question about using multiple ipads in our school.  Each of our teachers have a iPad and AppleTV in their classroom.  The issue is, with our classrooms so close in proximity to one another, is there a way to pair teacher #1 iPad to its AppleTV without effecting/projecting onto the adjacent teachers #2 classroom AppleTV?

    Not as such.
    Give the AppleTV units unique names and also enable Airplay password in settings with unique passwords for each teacher.

    Make sure that your bean is implementing the serializable interface and that
    you are accessing the bean from the session with the same name.

    I don't use that app. I just go to the web based site. You can share videos from the site, but not from the app, as far as I have been able to do. Try the web based version and see if you get the same error. Go through Safari is what I mean.

  • I have a question about japan new depriciation engine using non-japanese chart of deprication

    Hi, all
    I have a question about link between new depriciation engine and chart of depriciation.
    My client want to use US chart of depriciation as standard chart of depriciation becuase it has already standard setting like IAS deprication keys.
    it means I have to create Japanese chart of depriciation by copying from US chart of depriciation(non-japanese sample(0JP))
    I have a little doubt about it. In my previous project, I copyed chart of depriciation by copy from Japan sample Chart of depriciation(0JP) stored in SAP.
    Is it possible to copy from non-japan sample charg of depriciation to using Japanese new depriciation engine? I worried some errors will occrues if I do not use sample chart of depriciation(0JP) .
    If I need to use sample Japanese chart of depriciation, please give me the idea why I need to use Japanese sample chart of depriciation. I want to know the examples of non-Japanese asset accouting consultants who have working experience in the area.
    Thank you.

    Hi, Narasimhulu
    Thank you for your support.
    My client use one COA to all over the world. And not only Japan, other country aslo use the COD which is copied from that of US. Basic reporting line is for USGAP. I will customize 2 depriciation ares, one for US GAP and another is JGAP. No need to create TAX realted customize.  It means it enought only adding Japanese new depriciation keys to Current US COD. No need to add more Japanese local requirements.
    In this case, I want to know follwoing point.
    I know COD controll depriciation keys, but I want to know more detail about COD, what kinds of controls COD do. What is Japanese local requirements. Why better to use COPY of JP COD.
    Thank you.
