How do I log out of itunes on my computer and sign into a different account?

How do I log out of iTunes and sign into a different account? My mom just gave me her computer, and I need to upload my own itunes account on the mac and delete her account.

To log her out try going to the iTunes Store, click on the account name in the upper right corner, and then click "Sign Out".  Next, you'll need to sign in by clicking on the same button in the upper right and then enter  your account information. Once you're logged in I think you should be able to sync your music files or download your past purchases from the store to update your computer.

    How does one log out of itunes on the iphone?

    You don't, just exit the application.
    If you are planning on letting your children play with it wait 15 minutes before handing it to them and any purchases will require the password to be entered.
    And go into Restrictions and turn inapp purchases off.

  • Everytime I  try and sign into my iCloud account it tells me I can't log in due to a server error, but there is nothing wrong with my server . It also wont allow me to view any of my Photos or Documents that i have backed up.

    Hi,
    Are you running any Anti-virus software or do you have your firewall turned on? If so, disable them and try again. If that doesn't work, delete the iCloud account and then sign it back on again.
    Make sure you are running the most current version of the iCloud Control Panel:

  • Can I sign out of itunes on my computer and allow someone else to sign in?, can I sign out of itunes on my computer and allow someone else to sign in?

    I want to sign in to iTunes on my husband's computer, but I do not want to sign into HIS iTunes account.  Once someone has logged into an account on iTunes, is that account locked into that computer? 
    Also, I am trying to do some setup for my mother-in-law's iphone.  Her SIM is not here at my house, can I put my SIM into her phone and then connect to my husband's computer?  Will her phone be set up under my name or can I set it up using her iTunes account with a different SIM (temporarily)??? 
    I'm afraid to get locked into a. my husband's iTunes from his computer and b. onto his mom's phone. 
    Does this make any sense?  Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give.........

  • Sign out of one itunes account and sign into another seperate account on same macbook.  Cannot access itunes library for 2nd account

    Sign out of one itunes account and sign into another seperate itunes account on same macbook.  Cannot access itunes library for 2nd account.  How do I do this?

    iTunes account is not the same as iTunes library.
    iTunes account is what you use to purchase from iTunes.
    iTunes library is what is on your computer.
    You can have items from multiple iTunes accounts in one iTunes library.

    Open the account you want it permanently off of, go to the desktop, right click on My Computer, and hit Manage.
    Hit Services & Applications>Services>iPodsrv (or iPodservice, it's an older version).
    Double click, set the 'startup type' to Disabled, and it won't open in that account.
    Rinse, repeat for any other accounts as needed.

  • How can I find out which iTunes library my computer is using?

    I have a desktop Mac Mini at home that my wife uses and a MacBook Pro that I use at home and in the office.  I wanted to be able to access all the music we have on both machines from both machines, even when I am out and about and have no network connection for my MacBook Pro. So, I uploaded all the music we had on iTunes to Dropbox, and this now syncs on both computers.  So, whenever either of us adds music to iTunes, the songs are saved on both machines within the Music folder in Dropbox, which syncs in real time across both computers.  So far so good.
    However, what I am finding is that, when either of us adds new music to our respective iTunes, it only shows on the computer on which it's been added.  So, within a matter of weeks, our computers no longer show the same music in our respective iTunes windows, even though the music is present on both machines in the synchronised Dropbox folder.
    I realised that the computers must start using different iTunes library to each other when new songs are added to either machine.  So, I figured that, when we add music to one of the computers, if I pointed iTunes on the computer that has the less up-to-date music to the latest library that is being used by the computer with the more up-to-date music, this would ensure that both machines showed the same music in their repective iTunes windows.  The problem is that I cannot work out which iTunes library is being used by the computer with the more up-to-date music on it.  I know how to choose a different library when I open iTunes (hold down alt) but that doesn't help, because I all I want to do is to FIND OUT WHICH LIBRARY IS BEING USED BY ITUNES ON THE COMPUTER WITH THE MORE UP-TO-DATE MUSIC.  I simply can't find a way of getting iTunes to show me which library it is using, although this must be the simplest thing in the world. An additional issue is that I want to playlists we have created to appear on both machines - will that be the case if I point the less up-to-date iTunes (on my wife's Mac Mini) to the library of the more up-to-date iTunes (on my MacBook Pro), since my computer with the more up-to-date iTunes shows all the playlists, whereas my wife's doesn't?
    So, can anyone help?  Plus if anyone knows of any software that can automatically ensure that two different Macs both use the same and most up-to-date iTunes library and therefore always show the lastest music collection, whichever machine the music has been added to, that would be fantastic.  Thanks.

    You could have all the computers point to the same library but it can't be opened by more than one at any time.
    No answer for knowing which library is in use other than selecting it at startup.  This question gets asked here occasionally but I don't think it is a high-demand feature since most people have just one library.  I guess you could put in an empty playlist with the library name so you have an identifier.

  • My sister forgot her password to her ipod that she gave me and I have no idea on how to reset it, I downloaded itunes on my computer and tried to sync and restore but it said I had to sync it to the original computer but I dont have it

    So yea my sister gave me her ipod touch and forgot her password, so I looked up how to restore it and it would not let me because it said I needed to sync the ipod up to the computer it had originally been synced to. Im nowhere near that computer and I just need to know is there another way I can restore to factory settings?

    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and then restore via iTunes.:
    For PC
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                                           
    RecBoot tip
    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:
    Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Installs blootware on PC too
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    Try on another computer too and try another cable.

  • Why is the ringtone i bought on iTunes not on my iPhone anymore, and greyed out in iTunes on the computer. and how do i fix this problem.

    I recently bought some christmas ringtones. And i noticed after a day or so that the ringtone just disappeared. So i re bought it. That disappeared as well, so i bought another one.. well you see the pattern. But i sync'd my phone up to iTunes and they are on there, they are just greyed out with a circle of dots next to it. How do i fix this issue so i can have my ringtones, and songs, back onto my iPhone 6.
    Thanks !

    There has been a issue with ringtones and apple knows about it and is working on fixing it.
    Apple is advising customers not to repurchase ringtones and if you did, just give them a ring and they will refund you.
    Until then don't purchase any more ringtones at least until the next update.
    You can request a refund by going to the Account section within iTunes on a Mac or PC, or you can get help by chat, or contact Apple Care.

  • My laptop was stolen a few months ago, I have all of my music and photos saved to my iphone. I just got a new laptop today, and downloaded itunes and signed into my old account. How can I transfer my stuff from my iphone to my laptop?

    Please help, I don't want to lose my pictures or music!

    Music purchased from the iTuens store can be transferred using iTunes.  However, music from other sources can only be transferred from your phone using 3rd party software such as PhoneView (mac) or Touch Copy (pc or mac).  These articles will show you how to start syncing with your new computer with minimal or no data loss:

    Right-click the Apple iPhone, Apple iPad, or Apple iPod entry in Device Manager and choose Update Driver from the shortcut menu. 
    Click "Browse my computer for driver software." 
    Click "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer." 
    Click the Have Disk button. (If the Have Disk option is not present, choose a device category such as Mobile Phone or Storage Device if listed, and click next. The Have Disk button should then appear.)

    Use this window to navigate to the following folder:
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. 
    Double-click the "usbaapl" file. (This file will be called "usbaapl64" if you have a 64-bit version of Windows. If you don't see "usbaapl64" here, or if there is no Drivers folder, look in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. instead). 
    Click OK in the "Install from Disk" dialog. 
    Click Next and finish the driver-installation steps. Open iTunes to verify that the device is recognized properly.

  • Why can't I log out of Itunes on my ipod

    My ipod has two itunes accounts on it. One I know the password to and the other one I don't. After I tap log out of itunes on my ipod and go to update my apps it still says that im still logged into the account that I dont know the password to.

    Does this also happen in a Private Browsing mode window?

  • Okay so when I try to download apps on my phone a totally different Apple ID that I've never used before popped up. I've already tried settings under apps/iTunes and signed into my own apple account. But even doing so my apple Id won't show up

    Okay so when I try to download apps on my phone a totally different Apple ID that I've never used before popped up. I've already tried settings under apps/iTunes and signed into my own apple account. But even doing so my apple Id won't show up

    Try this:
    Open the iTunes app, select the Music tab, then scroll all the way down to the bottom.  Here you can sign out of any current Apple ID and sign into a new one.  Good luck!
    And just in case there is another Apple ID linked to your account you can check at http://appleid.apple.com.
