How do I authorize another iphone to use my itunes library account

I purchased an iphone for my daughter and wish to authorize it as a user on my account.  How do i do this even if she has her own apple id

What exactly are you wanting to do ? You only need to authorise your account on a computer's iTunes (Store > Authorise This Computer menu option), iOS devices aren't authorised.
If you/she will want to redownload some of your purchases on her phone (or the computer's iTunes that it will be synced to) then that might tie her phone (or computer) to your account for 90 days : iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID

  • How can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    how can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    Is the new iTunes library on a different computer, or the same computer?
    Are you concerned about photos that you have taken with the iPhone in the Camera Roll, or photos you have synced to the iPhone from your computer?
    Contacts should be configured to sync with an app on your computer. You set this up in iTunes on the Info tab with the iPhone connected. You will not lose any contacts if the app on your computer has at least one contact.

  • How can I transfer my iphone music to my itunes library?

    I got a new laptop and I still have my music on my iphone but since my itunes library is empty I want my music to sync. But I can't figure it out. HELP ME
    ps - I have a mac laptop and iphones 4s

    I posted this before and it got removed.... probably for "advertising" or some crap.... I'm not trying to sell anything, I'm just trying to help. So I'm posting it again in hopes that it makes someone's day
    The first thing you need to do (FOR MAC ONLY) is to go here and download this free program (trust me, I'm usually hesitant on downloading stuff, but this program is a life saver!). The download took a total of maybe 10 seconds... user friendly and extremely simple program, as you'll soon find out.
    http://www.headlightsoft.com/detune/downloads.html
    Once you've successfully installed DeTune, run the program! Once you connect your device, it will automatically show what device is connected. You're ready...
    Step One: Connect your iPhone to your laptop (USB) - ignore iTunes if it opens, but CANCEL any sync that may occur (if it doesn't; even better!)
    Step Two: In DeTune, it should automatically recognize your device (iPhone) and show all of the data in an iTunes-style display. On the left-hand side, you'll see tabs for Music, Podcasts, etc. (JUST LIKE iTUNES) Step Three: THIS STEP IS NOT NECESSARY, but I highly recommend it to keep all of your stuff organized: Create a new folder on your desktop (title it whatever, I used "iPhone Transfers")
    Step Four: In DeTune, select everything you want to transfer. DRAG AND DROP it into the folder you made on your desktop... wait for the copying to complete.
    Step Five: Stare at the screen in complete awe and amazement as all of your music is now comfortably sitting on your desktop waiting to be imported into your iTunes music library!
    My files were in m4a format, so you may not be able to simply drag and drop. Import them into iTunes via FILE ---> ADD TO LIBRARY, then select the files.... Don't know why you can't just drag and drop, but that works just the same.
    I hope this helped! I know I was in the same boat for quite a while, and am VERY pleased with this program. I bet my post disappears within a week
    Good luck and Happy New Year!!!

  • HT201303 how can I authorize another computer to have access to my account?

    how can I authorize a new macbook to download my itunes songs?  Says I'm not authorized

    Authorization and Deauthorization
    Macs:  iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
    Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
    In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
    More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
    You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
      1. Open iTunes on a computer
      2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
      3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
      4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
      5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
    You may only do this once per year.
    After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
    If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

  • How do I sync an iphone 5 with my itunes library on my pc?

    I have just purchased an iphone 5.
    I have an account with itunes, my password is correct.
    The phone is not syncing.
    The pc says it is but there is nothing in my music library on the phone.
    My ipod syncs correctly and I figure now, after trying to find a solution that I will abandon trying to use the phone for listening to music and stick with the ipod.
    I suppose thats why apple still makes ipods...

    Go to http://www.apple.com/itunes/download then download and install the current version of iTunes.

  • HT1386 new computer, how do I transfer from Iphone to new computer itunes library?

    I purchased a new computer.  Thought I backed up to Itunes before but nothing shows in music library once I log in.  How do I preserve whats on phone to itunes on new computer?

    iTunes will only transfer music purchased from iTunes from the phone to your iTunes library.  Music from other sources can only be transferred from your phone to your iTunes library using 3rd pary software such as Touch Copy.  Your only other options would be to re-import this music from other sources (such as CDs) or to copy the entire iTunes folder from your old computer to your new one, using one of the methods outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527.

  • How can I sync my iPhone with a new iTunes library and not loose apps?

    Up until a few days ago I was syncing my iPhone with my PC notebook. Long story short, the machine crashed and I had to re-install. luckily I had a backup of all of the music from my iTunes library which is now hosted on my Mac Mini, but I didn't have a copy of my apps (why iTunes keeps these files outside of the folder I kept my library in I don't know).
    Now I'm syncing music and video with my Mac Mini, but when I select that I want to sync apps I get the message that everything on the phone will be deleted.. Is there a way to back up the apps so I can add them to the library and sync them back to the phone without losing them?

    I had the same issue with a withdrawn app. Just copy all the .app files from the old directory to somewhere on the new machine, then drag them onto the Application menu item on the left hand side and iTunes will import them as long as you've already registered iTunes for the same account.
    Job done! Worked a treat for me - including the app that wasn't available any more.....

  • How do I authorize a surface to use my Itunes account?

    I cant't find a link for authorizing new devices

    Surface Pro or Surface RT? iTunes only runs on the former. Press Alt or Ctrl+B to show the menu bar, authorization is done via the Store menu.

  • How can I sync my iphone to a different itunes library without erasing my entire iphone

    I have synched my iphone to two computers. I want to synch one of my computers (because it contains more music files) to my iphone... the catch is I do not want to erase my entire iphone to do this.  I only want to erase my current iphone library for the one stored on my current desktop pc.  I would appreciate any ideas. Thanks.

    iOS devices can only sync with one library at a time.  To sync with a new library, you have to remove the current libraries content.
    An alternative would be to move content to one computer (using an external drive or homesharing), and then sync with the library you choose.

  • HT1451 How do I download my music from my iphone to another itunes library account on my computer?

    Hi, Can anyone help, the music on my iphone was loaded from a itunes library that I no longer have access to.  Does anyone know how to download the music from my iphone to a new itunes library account on my computer?

    yeah... that's just bad advice because it simply doesn't work that way.
    iPhones like all iDevices are designed to sync to one and only one computer.
    Please refrain from giving incorrect advice.
    To the OP, a simple search of the forums or a little reading in the User's Guide would have provided the correct steps on how to get the music purchased via iTunes onto another computer without deleting it off the device.  FYI, it has nothing to do with the device or connecting it to another computer.  Simply copy the files from the original computer to the new computer, or redownload them on the new computer.

  • Deauthorizing iTunes on a computer?  My laptop won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I'm authorized on too many computers, but when I try to de-authorize another computer I use it won't let me.  What's up?

    Deauthorizing iTunes on a computer?  My laptop won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I'm authorized on too many computers, but when I try to de-authorize another computer I use it won't let me.  What's up?

    What do you mean it won't let you?  What exactly does it say? (Sorry to sound so exasperated but this is like the 6th post in a row where people have made vague statements which do little to help us find solutions without a game of 20 questions.)  I'm going to guess and say you can only deauthorize a computer to which you have physical access or VPN login.  The alternative is to deauthorize all which you can only do once a year.
