How do I chat in iTunes Ping?

Hey. I was wondering if there is a way you can chat with the people you follow on iTunes Ping. I have looked through all my stuff on ping, (profile, people, recent activity,) and none of it seems to have a link or button to chat. Your help would be greatly appreciated!

There is no "chat" feature in Ping.
Regards.

ITunes Ping in English in Netherlands

I am a foreigner living in Netherlands, connected to the iTunes store through a Netherlands credit card and an iPhone contract. I do not know Dutch quite well, and up to now, I could not find a decent way to show the iTunes store inside the application in English, but I was able to find my way somehow.
As Apple introduced iTunes Ping yesterday, I decided to give this new technology a try. The same problem with my iTunes store view persists in Ping: everything is in Dutch. For me, seeing Ping screens in Dutch is both inconsistent with the rest of the GUI and way harder to use. Is there any way out of this? Can I use the Dutch iTunes store, Ping and other services in English?
Thanks in advance.

I'm a Dutch guy living in Germany, a country full of non German speaking migrants and expats. Same problem here. I actually speak some German but I prefer English and I most definitely am not even remotely interested in buying German dubbed content that used to be in English via fully Germanized UI. Hence I'm not a paying customer on iTunes even though the US version of store has plenty of stuff I could be spending money on.
Apple, and many other companies, plain don't understand localization issues. I've seen web sites assume wrongly that I speak Finnish or German and ignoring all indications I can possibly give that I want to be addressed in English. Earlier today I saw Google make this assumption: in a fully US-en localized gmail it managed to play the promo movie for priority inbox in German.
Allow me to spell out the business case for Apple and others:
1) Automatic localization based purely on location (IP address based or otherwise) is likely to get it wrong quite often (think double digit percentages in some country). If you don't offer alternative localizations or make switching localization very hard, you are pretty much slamming the door shut in the face of a potentially paying customer.
2) The world is full of native and non native English speakers living in pretty much any country on the globe. For a US based company, that is a large group of potential customers that can be reached that are now forced to deal with your service in a language they may not even speak.
3) Apple has loads of English content, which barring licensing issues could be sold/served to people outside the US as well.
4) Many English speaking expats are in the "wealthy, willing to spend loads of whatever the local currency is" category. These people are extremely likely to be over represented in your sales stats. If only you could reach them.
5) Many non native English speaking expats (like me) actually do speak English pretty well. I actually prefer English localized over the usually quite awkward Dutch/German/whatever translations used in many web sites.
6) Many countries have large communities where English and secondary official languages are widely spoken. For example 5% of the Finnish population is Swedish speaking and Finland has a quite sizable expat community where English is widely used. In Germany, there are quite a few migrant minorities from e.g. Turkey or Russia (100K+ here in Berlin) in addition to the many expats from US, UK, etc.
7) Failing to address people in the correct language alienates them. They might never come back even when you finally do figure out how to do things properly.

How do i sync one itunes account with two iphones, one ipod touch, and a nano?

I need help in how to sync the one itunes account we use as a family with the two iphones my wife and i have and an ipod touch that my son has and a nano that my daughter has. Please help.

That article applies, as far as I can tell, to all things called iPod X where X can be nano, touch, classic etc.
We don't have two iPhones in the family as yet but as I understand it each device can have separate settings for syncing calendars and contacts. For example my iPhone syncs these over the air with the Exchange server at work so if/when my wife gets an iPhone it would be easy to have hers sync to our computer
To make sure your apps don't inadvertently merge turn off Automatically sync new apps from the apps tab when you connect your device.
The Apple support document How to use multiple iPods with one computer suggests a number of ways for managing the media content. I use method two (Sync with selected playlists) with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which users should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
e.g.
"Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
"Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
etc.
I currently manage our family's five iDevices using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their device. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed and need rebuilding. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.

How do I use one iTunes account with multiple macs?

I have a Mac mini and am getting a MacBook Pro. I want to use my iTunes library that currently resides on my mini on my MacBook as well without jacking up anything.
I have an iPhone, an iPad Air and a classic iPod that are all sync'ed to the iTunes on the mini.

Hello blcampbell
There are many different ways to handle this and the easiest way is to migrate you data is to use Migration Assistant. It will migrate not only your music but also other content from your Mac Mini. If all you want is music, you can always just select that as an option. The article below will guide you through that option plus a few others if you are unsure how you want to proceed.

How can I share my iTunes library with 2 iTunes accounts?

How can I share my iTunes library between me and my wife?
I do not want to set-up 2 seperate accounts on my mac. Do not want to do home sharing or anything like this.
I just would like to connect my iPad to ONE itunes library and at the same time connect my wifes iPad to the SAME itunes library. Can this be done? How? Thanks! Maybe the answer is something really easy like "just connect both to the computer and sync them".
Thanks!

Plug them in and use them.
That is all you need to do.
In the answer from Apple I do not find anything about how the 2 exisiting iTunes accounts will be handled.
They will be handled fine.
All purchases from both iTunes accounts can be sync'd to both/either iPads with no problem.
I have three iTunes accounts (me and two daughters), 3 iPhones, an iPad and a few iPods.
Any/all content can be sync'd to any device, no problems.

How can 2 people use itunes in the same household? we both have iphone 4 and separate id but the same itunes? pleasehelp

how can two people use itunes in the same household? i had a iphone before so alreday had an itunes account now me and my husband have upgraded and we now both have them. he has set up a username and i have mine yet when he logs in he seems to just get my account? please help

Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account. On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else 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 are syncing Notes with iCloud, you'll also have to email your notes to yourself so they can be recreated in the new account as they cannot be migrated.
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.
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).

My iTunes downloads were made using my old gmail address. I had to quit using this email address as it got hacked. I created a new gmail account. How can I get my iTunes downloads into the new gmail account?

My iTunes downloads were made using my old gmail address. I had to quit using this address as it got hacked. How do I get my iTunes downloads into my new iTunes account that was created with a new gmail address? In my old iTunes account (with the old gmail address, I can't 'update' my email address or even 'add an alternate address' as I had already created this gmail account and inputting the new address into iTunes gives me the 'pop-up' that 'this account is already in use.' Advice please!

Good luck. It took me weeks to fix this when I had to do it. Your old ID branches out in lots of places. You may have to delete app and get them again, at least that is what Apple told me. Plus, all of your settings on your iPad that required any ID, will have to be changed. My old ID kept showing up in different places for weeks. Changing it on Apple.com is just the beginning.

How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?

How do I move my itunes account from one country to another? I set up my itunes account in the United States and now I live in England. I would like to transfer my purchases from my US account to my British account and then download them onto my new ipod. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes and I have updated my Windows 7 operating system. I have tried to get in touch with apple and the advisor said he could not help me. Ideas?

Before you change the country, note the following:
- you must use any remaining store credit on your account
- download all purchased content
- ensure you have no current rentals(if you do, you'll have to wait for them to expire)
- provide a new payment(such as a credit or debit card) associated with a valid billing address in the UK or an iTunes Gift Card purchased in the UK
- content purchased from the iTunes Store is country-specific. If you wish to upgrade any of your iTunes Store content to iTunes Plus, you'll need to do this before you change countries. The content you purchased while your account was set to the previous country will not be eligible for upgrade once you've changed countries.
- after you change countries, you will no longer receive application update notifications in iTunes for the apps you purchased in your original country. However, you'll still receive update notifications on your iOS device for any applications installed on it. In addition, you'll be able to download previously purchased applications again for free if they are available on your new country's store. You will not be charged and the download will not appear on your Purchased page. If a previously purchased application is not available in your new country, you will not be able to download it again for free.
- If you have an iTunes Match subscription, you can't change countries until the subscription has expired.
- If you have purchased a Season Pass, you cannot change the country associated with your account until that season is done airing and the last episode of the season has been added to the iTunes Store.
Taking the above into consideration, here's how to change your country:
1. Open iTunes and click Sign In.
2. Enter your iTunes Store account name and password, then click Account Info.
3. On the Apple Account Information page, click Change Country or Region.
4. Enter the updated information and save your changes.

How can I remove an iTunes account from a computer I'm giving away?

How do I remove my iTunes account from a computer that I am giving to a student in my school? I want the music I purchased to play, but I don't want the student to have access to my email address or my credit card that is tied to "my account". I went through the steps to deauthorize a computer but encountered two problems: 1) The only command offered was "deauthorize all". There was no list of the authorized computers where I could check a box to select the one to deauthorize. 2) If I want to leave the music with the computer, but remove the authorization.

If you are giving the computer away you should not include music you've purchased: the purchase doesn't include the right to make copies to give to other people, which is what you would in effect be doing. The same applies to any purchased sofrtware which wasn't bundled with the computer when new.
The proper procedure when selling or giving a computer is to erase it completely and restore it to its out-of-the-box condition from the original disks. You should also make sure to include the disks which came with the computer.

How can I delete an iTunes account ?

How can I delete an iTunes account ?

Only iTunes Support can potentially delete an account (which would also delete any purchase history for it, so you would no longer be able to authorise that content on a computer, redownload it, and download updates to its apps) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
Or you could just remove any personal info from it (e.g. payment details if you have any on it) and stop using it

Where are you located?
Just go and buy an iTunes gift card at any store in your country.
Then follow all the steps you did, but when it asks you for the credit card number, there shoujld be a GIFT CARD option which will let you load your account witht eh funds form the gift card without providing a credit/debit card #.
