How do I manage multiple itunes devices ?

How do I manage multiple itunes devices with other family members on a single computer?
I do not want to share libraries.

There's a couple of options (other than using specified playlists or manual management out of a single library).

How do I manage multiple iTunes users on the same PC?

Hi- I'm new to iPod and iTunes. We have 3 iPod's in our house but only 1 PC. How can I set up iTunes so we can all manager our music separately? Thank you!!

I manage three iPods too--mine (a mom of 50+ years old); a son 22 years old; and a daughter 14 years old. Obviously we must all have very different tastes in music!
You're right we do! But we all share one library--because we like all of our music to be in one place. So all of our iPods are set to MANUALLY update. Then we create playlists that we want to add to our device. This has worked well for over two years now. I have no other advice!

Managing multiple iOS devices on different Apple accounts from the same iMac

May be a very simple question to answer, but can I manage multiple iOS devices on different Apple accounts from the same iMac?
I ask as whilst I'm totally Mac'd, my partner who has her own Apple account has a Winows laptop and experiences problems updating iOS software on her iPhone 4S and iPad 3 Gen via the laptop. I'm thinking the problems may be overcome if we manage her iOS devices through my iMac.

Thanks dwb .... I thought there'd be a catch .... not to keen on all that media and apps on my iMac!
The specific problem is that whenever she updates to the latsest version of iOS using the latest iTunes for Windows on her PC laptop she seems to lose something in the process. One time she lost all her texts and the other day when updating to 5.1.1 she lost all her reminders. Not the end of the world but frustrating and shouldn't really happen and doesn't happen to me using the iMac and OSX.

How do you manage multiple emails in ios8?

How do you manage multiple emails from one sender in ios8? In iOS 7 you used to be able to search the sender and then edit, select and move.. I can't seem to find this feature anymore.

After you have done the search, you can swipe downward slightly on the keyboard and it will disappear and you will see "EDIT" in the bottom right corner. You can tap on that, select whatever emails you want and then you are given the choice to "Mark, Move, Trash, Cancel". It will even verify the number of mails you have selected.

How can I manage multiple devices in iCloud?

I have 30 devices that I need to manage. I want all devices to be managed under a single iTunes account. Attempting to have a separate itunes account for every device would be a huge headach, and serious time-waster.
I do not care one whit about iTunes on a computer, so please don't point me to the article on using multiple iDevices on a single computer. These devices are not synchronized to computers, unless individual users decide to sync their phone to load up music, photos or whatever. Further, when the phones come into IT I do not care at all for the data stored on the phones. These are business phones. So if a user chooses to put anything on the phone, that user is responsible for backing it up / reloading if we have to wipe it.
So, with those criteria -- HOW do I manage all of these devices on a single iCloud account? Most specifically, I am trying to get "Find My iPhone" to work, but it says that all devices are off-line. I have my assigned phone in my hand, turned on, and using the internet.
In truth, I actually don't care about anything except the Find My iPhone functionality -- we do not sync our phones with iCloud.

How to manage multiple users/devices/Apple IDs on a single computer

I got my 8 year old an iPad mini for Christmas and I'm about to set it up but I need some advice on using multiple IDs on one computer. I have an iPhone 4s. I assume I will need another Apple ID for the iPad mini so she can use Facetime. How do you manage two devices with different IDs on one computer? Will my movies and music be available for the iPad mini ID? What happens when I plug the iPad into my computer? Do my iPhone apps on my account disappear? Do I need to log out of my iTunes store account? Is their a danger in mixing the two accounts? I was told to be careful if you plug another iPhone into your computer because it can wipe your phone and replace it with another users info if you don't log out/in correctly. It's very confusing so if anyone could give me some advice on how to set this up and manage two IDs and devices on one computer it would be helpful. Thanks:)

This should be of some help.
How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer
Your daughter is too young to have an Apple ID because the minimum age is 13 years old. You can use her email address for FaceTime and Messages. You add the address as the contact address when you activate both of those apps. But both apps will still have to be tied to your Apple ID.
I was managing 5 different devices with one iTunes library and all devices had their own unique content on them. It is not that difficult to manage.
there is lots and lots of information out there on how to do this. Check some of these out for more information.

How can I manage multiple libraqries on iTunes?

My HD is getting too full, mainly because of Movies & TV shows. How can I keep my music and Podcasts on my HD and movies and TV shows on my second HD (or and external derive)?
If I can do this, I am usually on Music, but how do I purchase a movie from iTunes store?
Having achieved this, how do I get it onto Apple TV?
Many Thanks
Richard

Maintaining multiple libraries is feasible, but ultimately a bad idea unless you have absolutely no other choice. iTunes can handle switching between multiple libraries, but it is not designed to properly manage multiple libraries. The better option is to move your entire music folder (media file library) to a larger, dedicated volume. You have a Power Mac G5 so you have a number of options, but first there are some things that you need to tell us:
1. What is the capacity of your current hard drive?
2. Do you have a second internal drive? If so, what is the secondary drive’s capacity?

How to create/simulate multiple mouse devices (in dev manager) in windows 8.1 and above?

Is their any way to install/enable multiple mouse devices in windows 8.1 and above and simulate input to them? I would write a driver if their is no other way. If I need to write a device driver does anyone have any good pointer tutorials that would
get me started?
I found this for communicating with an already installed device which is hooked up to the computer.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/windows.devices.humaninterfacedevice.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
I wonder if installing something that's already in the driver store using DiInstallDriver and enabling it (possibly via CM_Enable_DevNode) would work?
My goal was to create/install 4 mouse devices and communicate with them via the windows.devices.humaninterfacedevice library. Would this be possible?

you need to write your own driver. you will need to write a HID miniport. from that one miniport you can describe as many HIDs as you want. you can write the HID miniport driver in UMDF if you want to stay in user mode.
the namespace you link to above will not create HIDs and the normal rules about not allowing you to open a keyboard or mouse HID from user mode still applies.

That almost an answer. I was wondering if this is good example of what you were talking about:

If so, does that mean I need to use direct calls to HID.dll or other libraries in order to read from the custom mouse device? I have seen many implementations of filters which end up poorly (maybe not everyone but the multiple device ones mostly) and
I am not for sure about the miniport drivers.

How do I manage multiple Iphone accounts on one computer

My wife desperaely needed to back up her iPhone (been over teo years). I didn't want to do this given that she woulde lose two years worth of data, but we decided to plow ahead. I hit the update button and was advised that there was an earlier backup from last fall. I said I wated to use that back up. Unfortunately it was a backup for my daughter's iphone 5c and now my wife's phone is simply a clone of the 5C. What can I do to pul at least some of her account information back out and show her iPhone again on the devices list?

It certainly is possible.

How do I manage multiple Apple IDs on one iMac

We just purchased my oldest child her first personal iPod Touch 5th gen. Up until now, we have all managed our music/devices (2 nanos, 2 iPhones, iMac, iPad, and now Touch) on our iMac under one Apple ID (mine!). We use this ID for everything from Apple TV purchases to iTunes to apps etc. as one big pool all charged to one credit card. Now that my daughter has her own Touch we want to allow her to redeem gift cards to buy things (rather than go to credit card). The problem is, her Touch is now somehow (automagically) synced to MY Apple ID - I am guessing because we plug it into our iMac and downloaded all the OLD songs she had from before. Is there anyway that my daughter can have a separate Apple ID than our main one and still manage them both on our iMac??

What do yo mean by manage?

HT1689 How do I download multiple itunes accounts on one computer under one user?

Recenlty moved to one account on our windows 7 computer to cut down on potential malware issues that allowed malware to migrate over to other user accounts. However, we have different iTunes accounts and want to be able to download our individual music from each of our devices that include an iphone 4, iphone 4S, and ipod. How do I create this capability under one windows 7 user account?

It certainly is possible.
