How can I get my wifes account transferred over to my computer?

My wifes computer crashed. I want to be able to sign into itunes and get her songs downloaded and use her ipod on my account? Not having much luck!
Thanks for any help!

Two issues here. In order to sign into her account you will need to sign out of yours then sign into hers.
I am not sure that this is all you need though. Signing into her iTunes account will only allow new purchases to the account. Will not do anything for already downloaded files or the old library.
Have you read this article yet aboout ussing multiple iPods with one computer?

How can i get my wife set up in iTunes - Same computer

Hi guys
I'm trying to figure out the best way to get my wife set up using her own iTunes accounts.
She has an iPhone and iPad but her laptop is pretty rubbish so i set up a user account on my MBA for her. I use iTunes match under my account, under hers she just has a conventional iTunes Apple ID. As soon as we sign in it warns us any downloaded past purchases will prevent the other Apple ID associated with that computer from working for 90 days. I've read about this and understand there is nothing we can do.
But can we still use her own iTunes? How about if we sign out of her Apple ID in her iTunes. If she syncs her devices can she get her music on that way without these 90 day warnings? Or will we have to transfer purchases again? Will she be able to import CD's and sync to her devices or do we face the same problem?
This is pretty frustrating and it ***** no being able to have her own iTunes account on my computer. If the above works with syncing from device to computer, can you purchase everything on her devices and transfer from them?
Thanks.

I do have a seperate account for her on the OS - I still get the 1 Apple ID per device warning (we will lock you out for 90 days message).
We are in her own OS account in her own iTunes library. I wondered if i never sign in there, would we be able to manage her music on the same laptop i use for mine?
We will have to transfer purchases when syncing with her devices, but will this give us the same error about the 1 Apple ID per device?
If so that would be really bad, only way to do it is buy her a new laptop. Not good!

HT201272 How can I get my previous purchases transferred to my new computer?

I bought a new laptop and dont know how to get my previous purchases on this itunes.

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you let iTunes manage your music: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.

HT5129 How can I get my MobileMe albums transferred over to iPhoto? It keeps freezing on me!

When I launch iPhoto, it gives the standard message that MobileMe has been discontinued and that it will transfer albums to a folder in iPhoto. But then a progress meter comes up and doesn't move. It just freezes. Any ideas?

Go to the http://web.me.com site, log in and then use the Downlload button at the top of the page to download zipped folders of each album's photos.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot. I know the report is long. Please post all of it anyway.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

I have an ancient laptop (from 2005) that has my entire music library. This laptop barely works and some keys don't type anymore. How can I get all this music transferred to another computer, or available to me on the cloud?

No... do not move programs.
About the iTunes library files
Your iTunes library files track the media you add to iTunes, how you've organized it, and other information such as playlists. By default, these two files are in your iTunes folder:
Mac OS X: /Users/username/Music/iTunes/
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
Windows Vista: C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\
Windows 7: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\
Windows 8: C:\Users\username\My Music\iTunes\

How can I get my POP account showing in the inbox it's supposed to show in?

Hi-Until a couple of weeks ago all mail received from my IMAP and POP accounts would show up in the correct mailboxes in my Mail inbox list. (Only problem then was that sent mail would never show up in the sent mail folder--always stayed in the inbox.)
Now a new problem has happened----unless I go directly to my charter cable account (P0P account) to retrieve any mail sent to that particular address, the mail goes unnoticed by Mail on my MAC and nothing shows up in the inbox. But--- If I do a test to myself , sending an email to the POP address from my IMAP account from my MAcMAil, my IMAP account will show the email in the inbox of the IMAP account I sent it from as if I'd mailed it to that account. How can I get my POP account showing in the Inbox? And, any suggestions for a fix to getting the "sent" mail to show in the "sent" folder would also be appreciated.
Thanks!

Depends what OS X and Browser you are using?
If you are on Snow Leopard (10.6) and Safari (5.1.7) then open Safari Preferences, select the General tab and make sure that:
1. Safari opens with: A new window
2 New windows open with: Homepage
3. Homepage: is set to the desired https: site

How can i get apple tv2 to recognize more than one computer in my house

how can i get apple tv2 to recognize more than one computer in my house, I just got it and can only find one of two computers in my home

Same here. I have 1 ATV2 and 2 computers and each has separate iTunes accounts (mine and my wife's). The ATV menu says "computers" so I presume you can have more than 1 computer on 1 ATV. The big question is how do you set it up?

How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot get the music off it.

How can I get my old iTunes music onto my new computer without access to my old computer? I left my previous job and forgot to transfer my music. I bought iTunes match and it shows my old Mac as a device, but I cannot access any of the old music. All I can find are what was on my iPhone, but that's not what I want. I need all my old music from my old Mac, which has been wiped clean by IT at my old job. BUT, I did have iCloud at that time and I thought all my music would be accessible through it. I don't understand the Cloud! And I'm thinking spending $24.99 on iTunes Match was a waste of money because I still can't access my old music.

When you are done with this issue, consider the computer back at the office may still
have access to your iTunes account, and it should be de-auhorized. You can do that
remotely, but be sure you carefully do not mess up your other computer iTunes libraries.
Good luck & happy computing!
