How can I share iTunes content with my kids' devices?

Hello,
We have 1 computer.
I have an iPad and an iPod.
My daughter also has an iPod.
Untill now we synced all devices with my AppleID.
Now my daughter want her music on her iPod and not my old fashioned songs.
Is there a way to create / have multiple AppleID's on 1 computer and still share songs amongst them?
Additional question: is it an obligation to provide a credit card number with an AppleID? I'd rather not give my daughter my CreditCard details.
Thanks for your help.
Stefan

  • How can i share itunes content with my family?

    I just got an iPhone and gave my sister my iPod touch. Is there any way can we share our apps/music with each other? I was going to use home sharing but from what I've read both users have to be on the same wifi network and we'll only be in the same house during the summer because she's in college.

  • How can I share my Internet with my other devices

    I have been assigned a temporary home for the next few months. The only Internet available is via a USB Dongle. The family uses iPads for their daily pleasure. Is there a way to create a shared network from my Mac Book Pro running Mountain Lion OS?

    Hi V3LV3TP0RKR1ND,
    You can use Internet Sharing to share your connection with your iOS devices:

  • How can I share itunes content between 2 macs (both mine) in 2 different locations? Same Apple ID, same account, not the same network.

    I haev a main mac at my main home which syncs itunes to my ipad and iphone with no problem. I want to access the same itunes content at my mac in my second home which is obviously on a different network. I have my ipad and iphone with me so they can be on the same network as the second mac. I can share the purchased itunes content but not the uploaded content. Any ideas?

    Ok well that is not uploaded content. Maybe ripped content is a better term.
    You can transfer purchased content from your iOS devices into the new Mac if you want.

  • How can I share itunes music with others who use this computer??

    I want to share my music with my granddaughter and she wants to share hers with me. We use the same computer but log in with different accounts. If the music is in the computer is seems there should be a way to share all the music.  Can we do that??

    There are sharing abilities built into iTunes.  In the iTunes Help menu just type in "share."
    I personally don't care for the way iTunes shares music.  I have taken a different route.  I use file sharing to share my Music folder with my wife.
    From the Finder window right or control click on Music.
    Select Get Info
    At the bottom of Get Info click on the lock icon to unlock changes
    Under Sharing click on the + to add access to another user.
    Select you daughters id. and add her.
    Give her Read Access.
    Click on the Gear icon on the bottom and select "Apply to enclosed items."
    Have you daughter do the same for you.  You will now have access to each others music.
    There are several ways you can listen to each others music.
    To listen to just one song I just use the Finder method.  Open Finder and click in the spotlight search field (upper right).  Type in some criteria (i.e. Artist, partial title, album name).  Files will appear in the finder window.  Select the icon view option.  You should see album artwork.  Move your mouse over the track you want to listen to and your should see a play button appear. Not sure which OSX versions support this (10.6 does).  Click on the play button.  If you don't see a play button you can play by selecting Get Info.  There is a play button in the preview section.  You can also play with Quick View.
    To listen to a playlist you will need a multimedia player like VLC (google it if you don't have it).
    From iTunes you can export your playlist from File > Library > Export Playlist... (.m3u works well)  Give your daughter read write access to the playlist file and from the Open With entry select VLC. (use the get info method)
    Copy the playlist file to you daughters drop box in her public folder.  Have your daughter use the get info function to make sure her copy still points to VLC and not to iTunes.  If you open the playlist file with iTunes it may copy the tune files to her library. (don't want to end up with multiple copies of tunes on your Mac)
    Double clicking on the playlist file will open VLC and begin playing.  There is a playlist button on VLC to view, sort and select tunes from the list.
    Phew!  Hope that helped.
    Dan
    P.S.  Haven't tested this with copy protected stuff.

  • How can I share a playlist with another iOS device that they can play when they're offline?

    I have created a playlist in iTunes for someone in my family and have authorised him for home sharing. He can listen to the playlist when on our wifi at home, but how can he listen to it on his iPhone when he is away from home?

    What you are asking isn't possible as devices must be logged in to the same wifi and with the same Apple ID for Home Sharing to work.

  • HT1727 how do i share itunes library with new iphone device?

    I just bought a new iphone and set up new icloud account.  How do I share my itunes librbary with this device/account?

    Guys, its not that easy. When you answer questions here, please imagine that some individuals may be new to apple, itunes, and its never just as easy as "select what you want. Explain how to get to the settings you are telling them to use, and step by step help... If they wanted a simple answer they wouldn't spend the time to get on here and ask.

    Hi Labbie,
    The article below provides a few options on how to sync iPhones that have common data and hardware, like alternate iTunes libraries or multiple user accounts. Also, remeber the sync settings are tied to the device not the computer.

    You can export the tracklist from iTunes.  You shouldn't be sending actual music to them since that would be in violation of copyright.
