How do i stop my different itunes accounts from getting the sharing the same songs

My mum and i both have ipods and different itunes accounts, but every time she buys a song in her account i will log into my acount to find that it is in my libray aswell, so when i plug my ipod in it wants to download hthat new song onto my ipod. Is there anyway to completely disconnect the accounts from each other?
PS we both own ipod nano 5th gen (the ones with the video cameras) and we have the newest version of itunes on our computer that we share.
Thnx

I appreciate your quick response and fast feedback.
Sorry, I neglected to tell you I build the webhelp using
robohelp for word. I have tried both the options on the dialog box
to jump to display in winhelp or display in browser, but neither
work. I update the webhelp at least twice a week, so tweaking the
html output page is not an option. Another option I tried was to
add the link directly into the toc as a new page - same result
(also tried both display in winhelp or in browser). As soon as I
hit the site, my help system is replaced by the suncountry.com
site.
For the aa.com site, the first page of aa.com displays in the
right frame of webhelp. After that any link I choose in the toc
displays in a new browser window. I have found that if I use the
back button on the original browser window so I am off the aa.com
site, then click refresh, my pages appear correctly in the right
frame. This is not user friendly.
Any other ideas?

Can you keep it from creating duplicates? These libraries have some duplicates.

I'm talking 50GB.
All computers are authorized.
THANKS for any suggestions.

You can't.
If accounts could be merged, then everybody could merge their accounts with everybody and there would be no need for anyone to buy anything.

No, you can only connect to one Home Sharing account at a time. If you want to see the content of the other Mac's library you will have to turn off Home Sharing on the Apple TV and log back in with the other iTunes account.

Change iTunes account from Master Card to the Free account

You won't be able to redownload any of your UK purchases whilst you are in the US, you have to be in a country to use its store - and you can't merge purchases from two accounts or countries. No content should be removed from your device or computer's iTunes library if you change the country on your account, or create a new account and log into it.

If you want to sync your iPhone with a new computer, take a look at this Apple doc -> Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
iTunes will let you sync some stuff from multiple computers, but it'll only let you sync music, videos or apps from one iTunes library.

HT2101 How do I prevent my new iphone 4 from getting hot in the first place?

I got a new iPhone 4 for Christmas. It is constantly overheating and getting insanely hot when charging. My battery life is suffering, it takes hours to charge and loses battery life very quickly. How can I prevent my device from getting hot in the first place? I use it in a room temperature environment and only have about 2 apps running at one time.

Idealy you should move your itunes content from your old computer to your new one
Here are your options
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Then just sync your iPhone with the new computer. It will ask to erase but as everything in in your new itunes this is OK. Then choose what to sync back onto your iphone
If you no longer have the old computer here is how to restore your library from the iPhone
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
Then you can sync your machine with the new computer.
If you do not care about this and just want to extract the items mentioned
I found this and it will extract your Contacts and messages.

How do I combine two different itunes accounts, one from an iphone 5 and the other from a macbook running 10.6.8?

Hello community,
Recently purchased an apple tv and as we were setting it up we came to the realization that wifey's itunes on her iphone has a different apple id - hence different account BUT she was able to download her original itunes account content to the iphone. Anyways we just want to merge the two libraries - actually since most of the music is on the macbook, we really just want to load the iphone content back to her orginal itunes account. Lots of posts out there but frankly Im a bit lost and nervous about losing anything(especially the playlists) so thanks in advance for any super simple and safe steps to take.

You can't.
If accounts could be merged, then everybody could merge their accounts with everybody and there would be no need for anyone to buy anything.

How can i add an already existing iphone to a different itunes account without changing anything on the actual phone...just updating it?

I have an iphone synced to my iTunes account. But I need to add another used/existing iphone to my account to update it. I do not want to sync my emails/contacts/apps, etc. from my computer/iTunes to this new iPhone. This 2nd iPhone already has existing apps and is in use.
Is there any way that I can do this without changing anything on the existing iPhone? All I need to do is update it to the iOS 5.0.1.
Thanks!

Thanks so much for the response! You have been helpful and quick!
It wasn't my phone, hence the reason we didn't want to share/take each other's content (apps, contacts, music, photos, etc.). But the owner's phone hadn't been able to update because of a computer crash/no access to a stable computer. So, I just wasn't sure if we could do an update without sharing content.
But you most definitely answered my question! So, thank you!

How do I register a different iTunes account as default on a laptop? I need to set my wife's iTunes a/c as the default on her laptop instead of mine. At the moment she cannot use iTunes or her iPod. Thanks

I first accessed my iTunes account using my wife's laptop. I then bought my own laptop and began using that for my iTunes account, so I am fine. However, I bought her an iPod which is effectively redundant because she can't seem to access her iTunes account using her own laptop - it just defaults to my iTunes account. I have tried de-authorising etc, and have even uninstalled and re-installed iTunes on her laptop to try to change the default settings, but none of this has worked. I can't believe it is that difficult to do this. She now has an iTunes account and an iPod which she doesn't use.
All I need to do is switch the default iTunes account for her laptop form mine to hers. Pls can anyone help? Thks

i'm not quiet sure atm but should normally work like this:
connect to itunes store -> log out with ur account (upper right corner where ur apple id is displayed) -> sign in with ur wifes apple id -> activate computer (store->activate this computer)
normally it should work this way but ur wife wont be able to use apps or music within itunes library purchased with the other apple id

How do i log into my itunes account from my windows computer?

I have downloaded Itunes but am not sure how to log into my account. I broke my iPad recently and would like to listen to my music on my computer.

Open iTunes. To authorize, go to the Store menu item on the menu bar, and choose Authorize This Computer, as shown below. Then you can log in to your account with your Apple ID and password.
If by any chance you don't see the menu bar ("File, Edit, View, Controls, Store, Help"), first enable it by using CTRL+B.
