How do I set up a seperate ITunes account on same MacBook?  I'm running snow leopard

I have a MacBook and want to run two distinct ITunes accounts with different libraries and billing.  How do I do that?

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

  • How do I set up two separate iTunes accounts on one MacBook Pro in order to manage the wife's iPhone and my iPhone? Can this be done?

    How do I set up two separate iTunes accounts on one MacBook Pro in order to manage the wife's iPhone and my iPhone (with separate info on each of course) ? Can this be done? A little step by step would be greatly appreciated; just short step by step though, I can follow fairly well.
    Kindest Regards,

    You would each need to use your own user account on the Mac, you can do this at system preferences > users & groups.

    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 2 seperate cloud accounts on my mac

    how do i set up 2 seperate icloud accounts each with seperate apple ids on my mac??

    Set up the first in the usual way. Set up the second one in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts & Calendars - this will be the 'secondary account' - this does not have 'push' email but checks the email periodically, and you can't use Photo Stream with it.
    Note that any one device can create only three iCloud accounts.

  • HT1296 How do I set up a second iTunes account on my PC?

    I am trying to set up a second iTunes account on my PC, but it asks me if I want to update or replace my current account.  I do not want to do either of these, but rather, set up a second account.  Is this possible?  If so, how do I do it?  Thank you.

  • How do I install OS 10.7 NOT 10.7.5 on a mac running Snow Leopard 6.8  i.e. where can I find the original install app for Lion OS 10.7.0?

    I'm running 10.6.8 Snow Leopard fine on my MacPro1,1, Dual-Core Intel Xeon, 2.66 GHz  Mac, but I need to install Lion 10.7.0 to run a program I need.How do I install OS 10.7 NOT 10.7.5, because I get this message when I try to install 10.7.5, which I've downloaded:"This update requires Mac OS X version 10.7." on a mac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8, So i need to install the original 10.7.0 over the 10.6.8  i.e. where can I find the original install app for Lion OS 10.7.0? The original Lion 10.7. is not avaialable for purchase from the App store or anywhere,  even C-Net . Where can I find it to purchase?
    Also it seems I cannot install Mountain Lion over 10.6.8 as advertised. When I go to purchase I get this message: "We could not complete your purchase. OS X Mountain Lion is not compatible with this computer."   I think my computer can handle it (specs above) Are there any workarounds to this?

    If you're getting a "This update requires Mac OS X version 10.7" message, than you have the updater and not the full installer. Go to your Purchases section of the Mac App Store and you should see the full version there. But it may be 10.7.5, though in my system is shows as being from 2011 which would appear to be the original version.
    As to Mountain Lion, that's supported only on the Early 2008 Mac Pro or newer.
    Regards.

  • Setting up two seperate itunes accounts on one computer

    I just bought my mom an ipad. How do I set up an itunes account for her on my mac where I already have one for myself? We do not necessarily read the same books or listen the same music, so I'd like them seperate, yet on my computer. A person told me "just make a new acount"... ok, but I don't see where that new account option is?!

    Just for clarification, Niel's directions set up a new user account on the computer with its own iTunes library, not an iTunes "account" as such.  "Account" is a misnomer. iTunes itself doesn't have accounts on the computer (yes, the store has accounts but that  isn't on your computer).  You can create multiple libraries with collections of media under one computer user account but this can be tricky to manage and you may be best off creating a user account for your mother with her own iTunes collection in that.  It is possible to share things on the computer.

  • HT1719 We have 3 ipods.  How do I set up 3 different itunes accounts?

    We just got multiple ipods in the house.  We don't want the same music.  How do I set up different itunes accounts?  Or do I have to create playlists and put the playlists on the shuffles?

    The setup screen should not be populated with anything except example info.
    In Mail,Contacts and Calendars You have a list of your emails and underneath the Add Account button:
    After you tap the Add Account... button you should get a screen similar to this one:
    If you tap on GMail there, you get the Account entry form, with sample info in the fields. Notice the "John Appleseed" name and the Example texts.
    Is that what you are doing?

  • 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.
