How do I set up a second itunes account on the same laptop?

Can you have 2 separate itune accounts on the same laptop? How do you set it up?

You need to use separate Apple IDs and Mac OS X user accounts.

    So, when the other iTunes account needs to be used, I should log out of Windows and have the other user log in under a different Windows account, correct?  
    M Parker, 
    Yes, since you are trying to keep things separate, that is exactly what you would do.

  • How do I set up two different Itunes accounts on the same computer

    I have one PC laptop and my daughter and I both have IPhone 4's.  I want to sync both phones using the same computer but want totally different accounts so that I don't have her music, aps, etc and vice versa.  I've tried this many many times and can never seem to get it right.  If I sign out of my ITunes account and then plug her phone into my computer, it syncs my stuff onto her phone.  HELP!

    First thing you need to do is disable auto syncing in iTunes. This is from Edit>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, etc.
    Unfortunately, the only thing you can do is set up separate log in accounts for the laptop. This will allow you to have iTunes in each log in and they can have different content. iTunes cannot have separate content with the same log in and different Apple ID, but you can manage two phones with the same iTunes account. See if any of the information in this support document will help you http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1495 but the best solution is separate computer log in.

  • HT1918 I have 2 active itune accounts on the same laptop, I would like to know if I can delete or cancel the newest account and if so how do I do this.

    I have 2 active itune accounts on the same laptop. My orginal account was set up 3 yrs ago I believe for an ipod that I have but I hadn't used it in a long time. I recently bought an iphone 4s and my daughter was helping me with itunes. She made me another itunes account under another email address that I use for facebook instead of using the account I already had. I have purchaed a few songs and ring tones from this new account, but since then I logged out and started using my old account a week or so ago. What I want to do is delete or cancel the newest account but don't know how to or what to do. The email I get from "Apple" is being sent to the email address I use for facebook and not to my orginal aol email account. Can you tell me what I need to do to? I only want one account and I would like to keep the old account.
    Thank you!

    Stop using the account.
    You need do nothing more.
    You will need to authorize your computer for both accounts as you have purchased from both accounts.

  • How do I delete my mom's iTunes account from the used laptop she gave me? I don't want to do anything to her account, I just want it to stop showing up on my iPhone , iPad etc...

    How do I delete my mom's iTunes account from a used laptop she gave me? I don't want to do anything to her account except get it off the laptop so it stops showing up on my iPad, iPhone etc...

    Go to iTunes menu, STORE and sign out.  Then you can sign in from there or create a new account which should match the account you have on your iPad and iPhone.

  • Can I set up two different ITunes accounts on the same computer?

    Is it possible to set up two separate ITunes accounts on one computer and yet share some of the same songs in the Library?

    Yes create two users on that computer
    One for each account, and then you will have 2 itunes libraries.
    Control Panel, user accounts, add new account (give it admin rights).
    Log off and then log in with the new account.
    Make sure you log out and not switch accounts when moving between the two users.

  • How do I set up multiple Creative Cloud accounts for the same login?

    I have a number of Macs of various flavors.  I want to install Creative Cloud apps on four of these units.
    I have a subscription currently which I am using for my MBP 17, and a 27" iMac.
    I want to add an account for my MB Air and Mac Pro, and I'm willing to double my subscription fees to do it.  (I use different apps on each of the computers, though I like the idea of having the ability to use them all on each.) How do I accomplish this addtional subscription without having to add a new Adobe account?
    Second Question:
    I have the one-year special on my current subscription due to licensed PS 5.5. ($29.95/mo).  Would I be eligible on my second subscription for the same deal due to the license on the PS 5.5, or would I qualify due to being a Acrobat Pro 8 owner... or Licensed owner of previous versions of PS?  OR.... would I immediately be paying $49.95/mo for the second account?
    Either way, I'm in. Just want to do it all under one account if at all possible.
    Thanks in advance for resolution.  Cheers.

    Currently all subscriptions (with the exception of Team Ready) require a separate Adobe ID for each Creative Cloud Membership. Its not possible to have two memberships under the same Adobe ID.
    Adobe has a Team Ready offering for customers interested in a volume license for Creative Cloud. This is a TLP volume license to Master Collection CS6 and includes licensing for Lightroom and Muse. Customers with this will transition to Creative Cloud Team once available later in 2012. This product uses only a single serial # and Adobe ID. It's not the same as Creative Cloud Membership like what is currently available, but rather a means to get customers setup with something now to transition to the volume license Creative Cloud Team offering once available. If this sounds like something you would be interested in please contact a local Adobe Reseller for more info.
    This link has more info:

    This link can help someone find a reseller in NA
    http://partners.adobe.com/resellerfinder/na/reseller.jsp?nav=al
    I just read over the terms of the introductory offer and it is a 1 per customer offer, so it would be 49.95/mo for a second account.

  • How do I share music from different itunes accounts in the same Mac, in different users account on that Mac with different iPhones?

    Hi
    My wife and I share the same Mac.
    She has her session and I have mine thus each of us has our iTunes session with our own music and settings.
    She has her iTunes account and I have mine too.
    And..;)...she has her Iphone and of course I also have mine.
    So, the big question:
    Both like music that the other has bought but we do not want to buy it twice! (through her account and mine).
    Is there a way to share music I purchase so she can have it in her iTunes session and therefore have it also on her iPhone when she syncs..and of course viceversa for me too?
    It goes without saying that although we like music the other one has, we do not like all of the music, so basically we want to have the possibility to share those special songs we like so we can have them both in our phones and individual Itunes sessions.
    Was that clear or I lost you???
    Any answer will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    First of all if you havent done it yet i think u shold authorize the mac on both accounts on itunes. You also can switch the accounts on your Iphones at itunes while you are in the internet adn download the music.
    This is just an idea you should think of. For sure there are other ways I dont know.

  • How can I set up two i tunes accounts on the same i mac for different profiles

    I have set up two profiles on my new i mac. I now want to access two different i tunes accounts but when downloading the second account I get a message saying the computer is already set up with an apple id and if you download you can not auto download !! for 90 days ??? I don't understand this

    Jus don't turn on Autodownload (iTunes prefs > Store).
    Autodownload simply tells iTunes to automaticall download items if you purchase them elsewhere (such as a different computer or iPhone/iPad).
    You can still download them when your purchase them on the computer or go to iTunes store in iTunes, select Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.

    I have an iPhone and my brother has an iPod touch.  We only have one computer at our house ao we have been sharing my account.  I get all of his music he purchases whether I want it or not.  Is there some way we can both have our own personal separate accounts?

    Create a new user account on your computer.
