How do I add an iTunes account? Is it possible to have multiple for one computer?

So I just got an iPad 2 and I want to set it up, but the computer I'm going to be setting it up on isn't with my iTunes account. Is there a way to add my account to this computer/iTunes in order for my iPad to sync with MY library? Any suggestions will help Thank you!!!!

You don't need an iTunes account to set up an iPad.

How are you going to sync it with YOUR library if you are not going to connect to the computer with YOUR library?

How do you delete an itunes account when you don't have the password.

My partner's itunes account was hacked. She cannot get into it. Neither her id nor her password work. Apple has said they will put a "hold" on the account, but this renders itunes useless and it seems you can't start a new (second) itunes account on the same iPad/iPhone/iPod. How can you delete the itunes account altogether so that she can start a new one?

I assume you're using an iOS and not an OSX device here. If not, then let me know.
Go to Settings>Scroll down to iTunes and App Stores>Click Apple ID>Click Sign Out
Then, create a new account on the web and sign in
I hope this works

Is it possible to have filters for one account on 3 devices ? And have the same results/folders.

I have one email account on 3 devices and I need to filter all received emails, on all 3 devices. Same folders and same filters.
If I create a filter rule on one PC then I can't find the filtered emails ( that are in the new created folder on PC no.1 ) on the other devices. What can I do?

To answer the question as stated in your topic, it's possible but not easy.
Obviously you can enter the same filters by hand on each installation of Thunderbird, but it's tedious and error-prone. You can set them up on one machine and copy the filter files over to the other machines. Also tedious and error-prone.
The way you describe the messages vanishing from sight suggests strongly that you're currently using POP, and this has no way of making use of shared folders. To continue working in this way, all you could do is set each client to leave a copy on the server for the others and painstakingly manage a set of filters on each and every machine, keeping them in synch by hand and careful management. (And ditto for your folders.) You'd also have to attend to the POP server from time to time to remove accumulated messages left there by your clients.
The real answer to this and your later question is to use an IMAP-connected account, where all your data lives in one place, on the email provider's server, and all your devices simply look at and work with one common set of data. Any filtering, editing, moving, etc you did on one machine would very quickly become visible on the other machines. In fact. the ability for more than one machine to be simultaneously be working on the same message becomes a somewhat worrying possibility. It's not clear if this is a likely event in your scenario.
Even using IMAP, if you filter at the client then you'd still have the issue of managing multiple instances of your filters, and the final part of this is to make use of filtering offered by the server; then the filtering takes place "at source" and you have just one filter set to maintain.
If your current email provider doesn't provide IMAP, and cannot offer it, then there are many alternatives who will. If it's for business then I think you should look for a paid-for service that includes guarantees, backups and an SLA. Your domain provider should be able to offer this.
For personal use, many of the free suppliers are worth considering. Googlemail works well, but if you're uneasy about their pervasiveness, have a look at gmx/1&1. Microsoft's hotmail/live mail/outlook.com offers IMAP. Yahoo! probably does (please check in your locality) but they have a bad track record and a lamentable reputation and I wouldn't want to entrust them with any precious material.

I no longer have my iphone. how can I delete my iTunes account

How can I delete my iTunes account if I no longer have my iphone

You can't as such. If you have a credit card entered that you wish to remove, just go into the account settings through iTunes and choose "none" for the Payment Method:

Then you can just stop using the account, if you no longer wish to buy music or other content for use on your computer.

With your new computer, you'll download a fresh copy of iTunes and then authorize iTunes using your Apple ID and Password. Read the following link:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
You can then connect your iPad to your new computer via USB cable and transfer your purchases (do not connect your iPad until you have authorized the computer. The music you had in your old iTunes account will not be in your new account as music is stored in a file on your hard drive, which you said has crashed.

How do I add $ to my account without going to the store to to purchase a redeemable card?
This question does not need a response from the iTunes Store. The only way to add to your balance in your iTunes Store account is with a prepaid card or gift certificate or, if you're in the US, you can set up PayPal as the payment method. The iTunes Store has no facility for doing a direct transfer of funds from a credit card or bank account, if that's what you where thinking about. You can, of course, purchase an iTunes card from the online Apple Store and it will be mailed to you.

How can I combine two itunes accounts into one?

How can I combine two itunes accounts into one?

Items purchased from the iTunes Store are permanently associated with the account from which they were originally purchased. Apple provides no way to change this.
However, if you wish to put content from two accounts into a single iTunes library, you can easily do so. Use the command File > Add File (or Folder) to Library.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
iTunes, iCloud, Messages and FaceTime are all seperate services. You could change your ID for Messages without affecting anything else. If you wish to change your ID for iCloud, you would need to save your data, please let us know if you wish to use another ID for more than messages.

How do we split our iCloud accounts but keep one iTunes account so we can share purchased content for our multiple iPhones and iPads?

How do we split our iCloud accounts but keep one iTunes account so we can share purchased content for our multiple iPhones and iPads?

You can migrate a copy of the data to a new account, then delete the other person's data from each account. To do this, on the phone that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that you want to keep on the phone, save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. If you have any synced notes that you want to keep on the phone, email these to yourself so you can create new notes in the new account.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account. You will create a new icloud email address with you turn Mail to On.
Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting your wife's data from your account, and vice versa).
