How can I use my itunes on another computer?

I am visiting my parents, who have itunes, and I want to access my itunes on their computer. How can I do this without disturbing their account.
I'm also scared that if I plug my ipod in that it will sync with my Dad's itunes (that would be awful).

You can't access your iTunes from their computer because your library is at home on your computer. You can only access there library.
To plus an iPod into another computer, be sure to set your iPod (at your house before you leave) to Manual updating rather than automatic updating. This will allow the iPod to mount and iTunes will not do anything to what it on the iPod or in the iTunes library.

  • My computer died. I do not want to loose one video on my iPod, how can I  use the iPod  on another computer? Please help!

    please advise how I can put my iPod on another computer, my old one died a slow death.  There is one short video on my iPod that can't  be replaced.

    - What is the source of the videos? If taken by the iPod you can transfer them to the new computer by:
    Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer
    - If they were iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
    - If they were synced to the iPod and not iTunes purchases then you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView.

  • How can I share my iTunes with another computer who is in another state?

    I just want to send my sister one song from my iTunes because its a recording of her daughter when she was 2. She no longer has the file and I only have it saved in my iTunes from a long ago. The only known file is the one I have saved on iTunes. I tried to do home sharing but I dont know how to do that being we are in different states. She lives in Oklahoma and I live in California. She has a mac computer as do I. We are both current with updates, is there a way to Ping it to her? Or even translate the file to the desktop to send in an email?
    Any help will due. Her daughter will be turning 10 soon, I thought it would be cute to show her the clip of when she was smaller!
    Thank you

    Just email it.
    In iTunes, drag the file to the desktop.
    On the desktop, select the file right click Share > email.

    You do make regular backups of your computer, correct?
    Use Time Machine?

  • How can I transfer my itunes to another computer

    I need to transfer my Ipad Itunes data to my laptop from my PC so I can take BOTH into the apple store to get some hlep from the people that know a lot more than I do. I've got videos and music plus apps.
    I'm really new to this.

    there might be something better now, but a few years ago i downloaded a free application called tinkertool, using that with your ipod plugged in check the "show hidden folders" box in the finder tab, hit refresh finder and then your ipod should show up on your desktop and you should be able to open the folder up and transfer all your data from the ipod. hopes this helps as a starting point at least

  • How can I use different iTunes accounts on one iPad?

    How can I use different iTunes accounts on one iPad?

    You can't, well not easily anyway.  The iPad is not meant as a multi account device. 
    You can Sign Out of your iTunes account in Settings->iTunes and App Stores->Apple ID->Sign Out
    However if you sign in with another ID and then download past purchases with it you will lock out the previous ID for 90 days. Which means it will not be able to be used on the iPad for 90 days.

  • If I imported a CD into my iTunes library from one computer how can I listen to it from another computer?

    If I imported a CD into my iTunes library from one computer how can I listen to it from another computer?  I imported music from a CD into my compter at work and when I got home and went to my iTunes account none of the songs were in my library.  I also noticed that on my Work computer there were a couple songs that I had to click on the little 'cloud' icon before I could listen to them (these were not songs I imported they were songs that were already in my library).  Not sure if this makes semse...help.

    My question is since I have imported them into my iTunes library from one computer why can't I access them from my iTunes library from another computer that I have authorized to access whats in my library?  Is there no way to import songs only once into the library and then access them from all my authorized computers?
    Only if you have iTunes Match or of the computers are on the same local network.

  • How can I use my itunes library for iphoto slideshow?

    how can I use my itunes library for iphoto slideshow?

    Here's a possible workaround:
    Create the slideshow in Iphoto and add a theme and music.
    Install Picasa  and it will include the slideshow on it's indexed list.
    Upload the slideshow to PicasaWebAlbums and send the link to anyone you wish.
    The music and theme is preserved.
    Caveat: My playback pictures appear darker than usual but that could be just lousy photography...:)

  • How can I use same iTunes on iPad 64GB and iPhone 5 16 GB memory

    How can I use same iTunes account on iPad 64GB and iPhone 5 16 GB memory

    Just connect them your computer. iTunes will treat each device separately. Or if you mean iTunes Store account, you can choose what you download to each device, either directly from the iTunes Store or in synching from iTunes on your computer, as long as you don't have automatic downloads turned on.

    That's exactly what I tried to do, but the iPhoto librry doesn't show up in the pulldown menu. If I click "Choose Folder", the iPhoto library is greyed out and unable to be selected.
    For some reason, iPhoto is an option in the pulldown library on my older iMac but not on my MacBook Pro. What gives?

    Hello Nousernamebrah
    Well get get your music from your old computer to your new computer, the old computer would have to work and turn on to access the files to be copied over. You also can access any previous purchased music and download it to your new computer as well. Check out the articles below for more information.
