How can I transfer apps from one iTunes library to another?

How can I transfer apps from one iTunes library to another? My daughter has an iTouch, and I was managing it through my library. I have created an iTunes account for her, with a new iTouch, and would like to move the apps over. I tried to sync the old iTouch to the new library and it said it was already set up to sync with a different library. What is the best way to do this?

You can transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
To make the new computer the syncing computer you have to:
- Transfer iTunes purchases lIke I described above
- Make a backup of the iPod on that computer by connecting the iPod and then right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up.
- Restore the iPOd from that backup
She will have to continue to use your iTunes ID to update the apps prchased with your account. To use her account she will have to log into the computer with her account (iTunes>Store) and change the sign in on the iPod by going to Settings>Store.

  • How do you transfer movies from one iTunes library to another?

    I want to transfer my iTunes library from one user account to another on OS X Lion. I can't seem to do this without receiving a profuse of permission errors. I don't mind being unable to transfer the movies, apps, etc. because I can retreive those from iCloud, but I have a dozen movies that I don't want to lose.
    Any ideas?

  • How do I transfer songs from one iTunes library to another?

    My husband and I each have our own iBook G4 and iPod mini's. I need to get songs from his itunes library (mostly downloaded from cd's) to mine so that I can put together a playlist for his surprise 50th birthday party. What's the easiest and quickest way of doing this?

    Hi, Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I think that the fastest way is:
    - connect the 2 iBooks using the Airport Extreme Card or the Ethernet
    - open finder then select network and select the remote computer
    - open iTunes, select your tracks and then drag them into the shared folder... that's it! You have just transfered your music to the other iBook and now you can create your playlist using iTunes.
    If you don't know how to create a private network or something else, post another message... bye!

  • How do I transfer songs from one ITunes library to another using an Ipad

    I recently synced music to my Ipad from someone else's laptop. Now I am wanting to transfer the music to my own computer , how do I do this?

    You can't without a third party app. If you didn't purchase the Music with your Apple ID or if the music was imported from CD's on your friends iTunes library, syncing will not work ....nor will transferring purchases.
    Look at this app .... TouchCopy

  • How do I transfer music from one iTunes library to another?

    Whilst out of the country and therefore not connected to the internet, using my laptop to play iTunes, then suddenly the library seemed to disappear!  When back in the UK and internet-connected again, found solution to locating previous libraries so, thankfully, all songs retrieved!  However ........... my latest Adele 21 CD was loaded during the interim period, so how do I get this file from one library to another, without using the CD, as my son has now taken this with him for his 7 month naval deployment to the Carribean!

    My mother's father's brother's daughter contacted me two years ago. I have never seen them, but they are "family".  Can I copy their CDs?
    You would have to take this up with a lawyer.  Apple Discussions isn't the place to get legal advice.  You can read some takes here (in particular "Copying CDs" at the very bottom where it mentions "personal use" which I don't think means distributing copies to family members not in your immediate physical location).

  • How can i transfer money from one itunes account to another

    any way to use my husbands itune money to purchase an app for my phone with my account

    If you sync your phone to a computer that his account is authorised on then you could try buying it on his account and sync it to your phone - but it will be tied to his account, so only his account will be able to download any future updates to it.

  • Can I transfer purchases from one itunes account to another, if so how

    Can I transfer purchases from one itunes account to another, if so how

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
    Answering quickly, though, if you mean you want to transfer a purchase from one iTunes Store account to another, you cannot.

  • How can i transfer apps from one account to another.?

    now i had bought apps with my old account. but when i sync them into my phone i cant update them using my account, i need the old itunes i had. How can i transfer all bought apps onto my new account?

    You can't.
    All 3rd party apps - all paid and free apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account used to purchase/download the apps. DRM cannot be transferred from one account to another.
    Why did you get a new iTunes account? Changing your email address alone does not require doing so.

  • HT1535 how can I transfer videos from my itune library to my friend's ipod

    how can I transfer videos that I've made at home, and that I converted so that I could play them on my ipod, which are now in my Itunes library, to my friend's ipod, without erasing all the stuff on his ipod?

    Email the files to the friend to import to their iTunes library.
    Copy the files to a flash drive to be imported to the iTunes library on their computer.
    Burn the files to a CD/DVD.
    Any of a variety of options that in no way involve connecting your friends iPod to your computer.
