How to break away from family iTunes account

I'm trying to help my neice who is now 19 and in college, to get out from under her Mother's/family itunes and apple account. she can not update ios because of multiple passwords. Also, can her itunes library carry over to her acount?

She needs to create a new iTunes Store account and redownload her content from it. The content in the old iTunes library can be moved to a different device but will remain associated with the original Apple ID.

    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 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?)

  • HT2688 how to transfer music from my itunes account to my husbands new iphone

    I have an existing itunes account which my husband had purchased music on and now he has a new iphone and, of course, his own itunes account.  I have synced but have only managed to download all his apps to my computer...but he still has no music.  I have turned on the home share but still hasn't worked.  when I've looked online for assistance it says to "turn on the settings for iphone>settings>ipod... well has has no ipod (other than nike + ipod), so I went to settings>music>and signed in to home sharing with his own account ID and PW.... any body have a solution?

    I'm confused.
    You don't transfer music from an iTunes account. You transfer it from an iTunes library. Plug in the phone and sync it.

    Okay.
    I have synced but have only managed to download all his apps to my computer...but he still has no music.
    You have sync'd your iPhone or his iPhone?
    I have turned on the home share but still hasn't worked
    Are you trying to Home Share between different computers?
    Or between iTunes libraries on the same computer?
    Are you using the same computer? Different computers?
    Are you using the same computer login or do you each have your own?
    If he purchased music previously on your account, is this music in your iTunes library? His iTunes library? Is there only one iTunes library?

  • How to burn songs from one itunes account to import into a new itunes acct

    I have set up seperate playlists for my children under my itunes account. However, my son is now older and receiving itunes gift cards and we want to set up his own itunes account but don't want to loose the songs we have purchased for him under my itunes account. We want these songs to still be available for him to sync to his ipod so we think we need to burn the songs to a disk so they can then be imported into his new itunes account. He doesn't want to loose track of his itunes money nor do I want him to be able to purchase songs using my itunes acct credit card info without my knowledge, therefore, we think we need to set up a new itunes account for his personal use. Any guidance would be appreciated!

    Not necessary. If you want to copy song files to a new computer, copy them to a USB flash drive, and then from the flash drive to the new computer.

    He should definitely have his own iTunes library, be it on the shared computer or on his own computer. As for a separate account in the iTunes Store, that is really up to you, depending how the family shares.

  • How to transfer music from one itunes account to another on the same computer

    How do I transfer iTunes music to another comp account on the same comp. I have Windows 7 and I made my own Windows account. all of my music is on the iTunes on the other admin. account. So how do i transfer all of my stuff on iTunes to my own account? I've tried going into Preferences then advance but that's not doing anything. I signed into my account on iTunes but that didn't seem to help. Please give me something simple and not too long. I'm trying to do this as quick as possible lol. thanks in advance!
    I'm running the lastest iTunes. I just upgraded it today.

    Move the music files or the entire iTunes library to a shared folder.
    If you moved individual files, open iTunes from the desired account and drag them to the library in the iTunes application window.
    If you moved the entire library, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and choose that instance of it.

  • How to transfer purchase from one iTunes account to another

    For a while I've been buying content through my mom's iTunes account, and just recently set up my own account. However I purchased a season of "Game of Thrones" while I was still using her account, and can only access the season through iCloud if I'm on her account. I was wondering if there was a way to still keep the purchase I made but switching it under another account (without having to buy it on the new account). The file of the purchase is on the same computer and will remain on the same computer, but just a different iTunes/iCloud user.

    Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff if they'll switch it. They probably won't.

  • How to sync songs from 1 Itunes account to 2 separate computers

    Hi,
    I have an Imac with about 4000 songs on it and these have been synced previously to my IPOD classic 160GB. I went away for a year and got a Macbook to use. I have purchased about 200 songs and uploaded several albums to this macbook. How can i sync them to my ipod without all the other songs being removed?

    Each iTunes library has an internal id. If you connect your device to a new library with a different id then iTunes will want to erase and reload. You could connect the device to the original library, switch into manually managed mode, and then add content from any library. Otherwise you need to gather all of your content into one library, and if needed, clone that to the other machine. You cannot add content that is only located in the cloud to your device.

  • How do i download songs from my itunes account to wifes ipod nano?

    How do download songs from my itunes account to my wifes ipod nano with her own account?

    To what iTunes library is the nano normally synced? The iTunes library you use (i.e. all tracks are in a single iTunes library). An iTunes library in a different user account on that same computer? Another computer? We need to know your setup and scenario before we can offer intelligent advice.
    Regards.

  • TS4223 how do i sync from i tunes account for purchased and rented movies on to my ipad

    How do i sync from my itunes account to my ipad for rented and movies i have purchased

    Yes you can do that. The problem comes from the fact that you both used the same Apple ID to purchase or download Apps. Purchased apps are associated with the Apple ID used to purchase them.
    I would just go ahead and back up all info on the old iPad to your computer. Then restore and erase the old iPad and set it up as new. Get a separate Apple ID for your wife and enter only her email settings. She might have to repurchase those non free apps that she might want but to me this is a small price to pay.

  • How can I remove an app from my iTunes account?

    I have several apps that I purchasesd or added to my account that I know I will never use again. How can I delete these from my iTunes account?

    Hi Annaoxie,
    If you no longer wish to see certain Apps would hiding the Apps work for you?
    Hide and unhide purchases in the Mac App Store - Apple Support
    If you hide an item you purchased in the Mac App Store, you won't get update notifications for it, and you won't see it on your Purchases page. If you're using Family Sharing, hidden items will also be hidden from your family members.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

  • How can I access apps on one device from two iTunes accounts?

    I have been told that apps can be loaded on the iPad from multiple iTunes accounts. Is this true?  If so, how does one do it.  My son has a school issued iPad.  The school IT lead informed us that we could use apps that the school provides form the school's account and apps from our personal iTunes account. Please advise. Thank you.

    You have to sign in and out of the accounts in the settings.
    Settings>iTunes and App Store>Tap on the ID and sign out then sign in with the other ID. If you are running iOS 5 or under, it is Settings>Store>Tap the ID and sign out and sign in with the other ID.
