How do I switch users between ITunes?

I just set up an Apple account, and my fieonce has already had one. I need to switch from his account to mine. I do not know how to do that, since there is not a thing that says that he is loged onto his account. I do not know if I need to set up a who nother user on the computer, or what do do...... PLEASE HELP ASAP

I am not sure exactly what you are asking here. The closest thing I can think of is Fast User Switching which is initiated by checking a box in the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences.

    Try connecting the iPad to the computer that you do not want to WiFi sync with and uncheck the WiFi sync option in iTunes. Then click on Apply. Reboot the iPad and see if that does the trick.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • How do you switch from one iTunes account to another on your apple tv?

    How do you switch from one iTunes account to another on your apple tv?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    I assume you do mean a different account and not simply a different iTunes library. Unfortunately, in order to switch accounts, you would need to log out and log in to the second account.

  • How do I switch user in  Common Provider 11.1.1.3 ?

    Hi,
    After I login to Smartview in Excel using Common Provider 11.1.1.3, I don't seem to be able to change my login ID. It always connects me automatically as my 1st login ID.
    how do I switch user in Common Provider 11.1.1.3 ?

    I have found that in 11.1.1.3 what John says actually doesn't work every time.
    .... very annoying.
    If you do the steps John said and it still doesn't work. Do it again. But this time close Excel after you disconnet and then reopen Excel. This will work every time.
    Kind of a bug in my opinion but haven't bother chasing after it with Oracle

  • Switching Users and iTunes

    We have a problem with iTunes when we switch users. We both (only 2 users) have full admin rights and no password required. Both iTunes use the same media source, have the same library name, have sharing turned on, are configured the same exactly. The problem is that for one user (me, actually) all of the music, playlists, apps, etc are as they should be. Switch to the other user (my wife), open iTunes, and no music, playlists, etc. What can we do so that we both have the same iTunes?

    Move your /Music/iTunes folder to /Users/Shared/ folder.
    Hold Option and launch iTunes.
    Select *Choose library* and select the iTunes folder in /Users/Shared/.
    Quit iTunes.
    Have your wife log into her account.
    Hold Option and launch iTunes.
    Select *Choose library* and select the iTunes folder in /Users/Shared/.
    Quit iTunes.
    That's it.
    Only one user can be logged into iTunes at a time so if you are using Fast User switching and the other user wants to open iTunes, you must quit iTunes before switching users.

  • How come the switch user option is missing from my lock screen?

    I upgrade to Lion my iMac Core 2 Duo and now when I lock the screen the switch user option is missing from the lock screen, you just have to cancel o renter as the original user, so that if another member of my family wants to switch and use the mac he or she cannot do it.
    This is what I am talking about (image taken from a lion review): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/134544/forum/Schermata%2007-2455766%20alle%2011.05.12.pn g
    The switch user option is totaly absent, I just have the cancel.
    It that a bug or what?
    Please note this happens only when I lock the screen from the screensaver, i.e. requesting the password to restart from the screensaver, if I get to the login windows all users appears correctly and people can switch back and forth.
    Thank you.

    I just talked to apple support.  They said Lion doesn't support this feature.  They gave me a work-around, which was to disable requiring a password in the screen saver.  Then enable user switching so it appears in the top right of the banner.  Note that since the screen saver no longer locks the screen, in order to actually lock the screen the user must click on the upper right user list and select something like "Login user...".
    This issue has left me disappointed with apple for a few reasons.  Hopefully someone at apple will take note:
    1. Apple removed a useful feature.
    2. Apple did not provide a response to this thread which would have been the best forum to inform users of this change.  It would have saved me and apple one long phone call.

  • On unsleep, how to select 'switch user...'  button using only keyboard

    I've tried pressing most of the buttons on the keyboard and have only found 'esc' sends it back to sleep.
    Why doesn't TAB work?
    I don't like having to switch to the mouse just to click on the 'switch user' button.

    I'm more or less having to teach myself at this point. Where should I go to learn about using an array?

  • How do I switch from my iTunes account to my wife's?

    I have two MacBook Air's registered to my Apple ID and my wife and I have been sharing an iTunes account tied to my Apple ID.  Now that she finally has an iPhone after my iPhone 5S purchase, we decided it would be easier to "register" one MBA to her Apple ID and sync her iPhone and iPad mini to her iTunes account on that MBA.  How do I untether her iPad from my iTunes account, and how do I accomplish the transfer of the MBA and her iPad and iPhone to her Apple ID and iTunes account, respectively, without wiping out the MBA and starting over?  Thank you in advance.  I've been really struggling with this.

    Doublechecking, tex ... are you using the following instructions to create backup DVDs for migration to the work PC? (The plan being that you then take those to the work PC and then "Restore" the backup to the different PC?)

  • How to ensure the link between iTunes Library itl file and Music Folder residing on a different drive?

    I'm planning to move my Music Library from a PC to Mac.  Both running iTunes 10.  
    On the PC (Win XP) the iTues folder did not move from My Music folder when music (and videos, books, etc) were moved to a different drive on the PC.  iTunes runs ok, but the itl, xml and itdb files remain in the My Music Folder.
    When I transfer the music (folder and all other contents) to the Mac, and then the itl, xml, itdb files into the new Music>iTunes folder will they still be "linked" or will I need to rebuild the itl from scratch?
    Is there a way to ensure that the itl and music files themselves transfer to the Mac and remain linked once iTunes is launched?
    thanks

    Making a split library portable
    Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
    If the iTunes folder contains the iTunes Media folder as above then the iTunes folder can be moved to a new location/drive/computer without breaking the file references. Although it is possible to migrate a split library from one system to another, the media folder must end up at precisely the same drive letter & path on the target system. This is feasible when moving between Windows systems, possibly feasible moving between Macs, but definitely impossible when moving PC to Mac or vice versa.
    Assume the media folder on the external drive is called ..\<Parent>\<Media> and the library files are in the usual place of <Profile's Music>\iTunes.
    You need to copy the library files and Album Artwork folder into the <Parent> folder, then use the hold-down-shift-when-starting-iTunes method (hold down option for Macs) to open the copy of the database that you've made in the <Parent> folder.
    Once this library has been opened and tested there are a few changes you can make so that it conforms to the standard layout. When iTunes opens it uses the folder name where the database is located as the window name so if the <Parent> folder isn't called iTunes then neither will be the main iTunes window. Close iTunes, rename <Parent> as iTunes and use the hold-down-shift-when-starting-iTunes method to open iTunes again. If <Parent> is the root of the drive, make a new folder called iTunes and move the library files, Album Artwork & <Media> folders into the new iTunes folder instead. Start iTunes, then check under Edit > Preferences > Advanced that the media folder location has been correctly updated and edit if necessary.
    You may also want to correct the media folder name. Having applied the fix above, if it was necessary, close iTunes then rename the <Media> folder as iTunes Media. Start iTunes and again check under Edit > Preferences > Advanced that the media folder location has been correctly updated and edit if necessary.
    Congratulations, your library is now fully portable and you can connect your external drive to any computer running the same build of iTunes, Mac or PC, in order to work with it. Don't forget to deauthorise the old computer if you won't need to access protected content on it again.

  • How to add a user onto itunes

    My husband and I have an ipod each. How can I have it so when he plugs in his ipod, it's his music and when I plug in my ipod, its my music? we have two different types of music.

    If you have one itunes library then you can select which music to sync across to each device.  These can be completley different.
    So your husband may prefer certain Artists, Albums, Play lists and you a completley different set of music
    Select what content you want form your device sync music page and click apply for your husband's device.
    Then do yours
