Home sharing? two different sign on's on same computer

Can you share music from two differents windows log on accounts on the same computer.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Certainly it is. You can use different ID's for iTunes and home sharing.
Just make sure that you are all logged into iTunes with your own ID, but that you use the same ID (doesn't matter who's it is) on all devices when setting up home sharing.

  • Can I download two different itunes accts on the same computer

    Can I downloan two different Itunes accounts on the same computer under different users???  I have 3 Iphones and they don't want to share an itunes acct.

    Yes. Launch iTunes with the Shift key held down as needed, or use separate Windows user accounts on the computer.

    M Parker, 
    Yes, since you are trying to keep things separate, that is exactly what you would do.

  • Can you have two different itunes account on the same computer

    how can you have 2 different itunes accounts on the same computer?

    You would need two seperate users on the computer. Then each library would be independent of each other. Or do you mean two seperate iTunes store accounts?

  • How do I set up Home Sharing between two different libraries / users on the same computer?

    I am transferring my library to a new computer and want to share it with my partner who has her own sign-on and iTunes library on the same PC.  Does Home Sharing work in this situation?  And how do I just transfer individual albums or playlists from my library to hers?

    I'm not sure this is possible.
    It would be far simpler if they are on the same computer to put the files into your dropbox (or whatever it is called on a PC and simply drag and drop them into your library.

  • How do I set up two different Itunes accounts on the same computer

    I have one PC laptop and my daughter and I both have IPhone 4's.  I want to sync both phones using the same computer but want totally different accounts so that I don't have her music, aps, etc and vice versa.  I've tried this many many times and can never seem to get it right.  If I sign out of my ITunes account and then plug her phone into my computer, it syncs my stuff onto her phone.  HELP!

    First thing you need to do is disable auto syncing in iTunes. This is from Edit>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, etc.
    Unfortunately, the only thing you can do is set up separate log in accounts for the laptop. This will allow you to have iTunes in each log in and they can have different content. iTunes cannot have separate content with the same log in and different Apple ID, but you can manage two phones with the same iTunes account. See if any of the information in this support document will help you http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1495 but the best solution is separate computer log in.

  • Can we share apps and songs with two different apple IDs but the same computer?

    we both got an iPod Touch for Christmas and we have two seperate Apple IDs and I cant figure out if the music she has purchased and the music i have purchased can be combined. We are using the same computer (windows 7) and same user acct. We also have itunes gift cards and before we start buying stuff i want to know how this all works. Thanks in advance and I must admit i am new to apple and not the greatest at it.

    I've tried everything..unplugging and re-setting the Apple TV, restoring to factory settings and starting over...nothing seems to work. I'm not sure why the software upgrade would have affected it, but that's what triggered this problem. It doesn't seem right that if it's accessible on my computer and it's all music purchased by me, that it's not all accessible on my Apple TV!

  • I have two iphones and I want to use two different apple IDs on the same computer without any syncing of the two phones?

    I have two iPhones. How do I have two seperate apple ID's on one computer without them syncing.

    You can either do as sberman suggested - create separate User logons on the computer
    or
    You can make sure that you are syncing Contacts, Calendars, and Mail via the individual iCloud accounts.
    Then, for Apps, Music, Movies, Books, Photos, etc. you would set up each individual iPhone's options to only sync what you want to have loaded to each of the phones from the iTunes and Photo libraries. You do this by setting up the individual Device Profile pages to have only what is selected for that particular device. When you hook the device up via a USB cord, you will see the device Profile pages to the right of the sidebar. Select each Profile page and set it up as desired for the particular device.
    Also, turn off Automatic downloads in Settings>iTunes & Apps Store>Automatic Downloads on each device.
    Cheers,

  • Can I set up two different ITunes accounts on the same computer?

    Is it possible to set up two separate ITunes accounts on one computer and yet share some of the same songs in the Library?

    Yes create two users on that computer
    One for each account, and then you will have 2 itunes libraries.
    Control Panel, user accounts, add new account (give it admin rights).
    Log off and then log in with the new account.
    Make sure you log out and not switch accounts when moving between the two users.

  • Back up 2 different iphone5's on the same computer or same itunes/icloud account?

    How do I back up two different iphone5's on the same computer or same itunes/icloud account?
    I'm afraid one phone will end up with the other person's cell phone ap's and information on it...since this happened once before.
    How do I save them separately but also keep the ability to share the same account music, aps, etc.
    I'm wanting to back up the phones so we can download the new operating system next.

    - Disable autosyncing: go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods ...syncing">
    - Connect the iPod and go to the music, apps and other panes for the iPod and check the boxes that say only sync the checked items.

  • Can we have two different itunes accounts on the same mac?

    Can we have two different itunes accounts on the same account? I am having trouble accessing mine from my sons.

    Yes you can.
    The fact you cannot access your son's library from your User account is intentional. User accounts on your Mac are nearly as separate from each other as your Macs are from anyone else's on the planet. To copy music from his account to yours, first copy it to the Shared folder, then log into your account and import the music. Then, you can erase it from Shared.
    The Shared folder exists at /Users/Shared.

    Do you want to have two different versions of iPhoto, have two different Libraries or Share iPhoto with multiple users?
    Two different iPhoto versions (06 and 08, 08 and 09 for examples) is a problem and I say no because the older version can not use a Library that the newer version has modified.
