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.

    You can't without a third party app. If you didn't purchase the Music with your Apple ID or if the music was imported from CD's on your friends iTunes library, syncing will not work ....nor will transferring purchases.
    Look at this app .... TouchCopy

    how do i move a purchased song from one apple account to another

    The short answer is that you can't.  Purchases are tied to the AppleID used to buy them.  AppleID's cannot be merged, and the content cannot be transferred.

    The apple account music you want to transfer >> go to itunes store and log into the apple account that you want music to be put on your ltunes library...sign in then after you sign in then look down on right hand side for the word "Purchased" and those are the accounts songs and you can download them for free.
    Note that this does not change the iTunes account of these songs. This simply adds them to the iTunes library you are using.
    Also note than once you do this, you will have to wait 90 days to redownload any iTunes purchases from any other iTunes account, including the original iTunes account.
    It is possible to transfer itunes music from one account to another!
    No it is not!

  • How to transfer songs from one iPOD to another one?

    On my old iPOD I've collected songs for various libraries (from friends and my two computers) but stupid iTUNES won't let me transfer my songs from this iPOD back to Library.
    So, now when I've got a new a iPOD, I have to put all the songs there again, because iTUNES again won't let me transfer songs from one iPOD to another iPOD, when both are connected to the same computer!!
    What should I do?
    Apple as an innovator company should come up with an update to solve this easy issue.

    Haven't you got your songs in iTunes? Just connect your new one and it will update from your Library.
    However if you have deleted them from the PC, there are a number of third party utilities that can retrieve the files from your iPod.

    How do I copy multiple email addresses from an email sent to me into a new message?

    Are they in the body of the mail?
    Hold your finger down in that mail until the little blue bubble pops up. One of the options should be to select all. Choose that and all will be hilighted. then a pop up comes up to copy, choose that, open your destination and hold your finger down to get the paste dialogue.

  • How to transfer songs from one iPod to another?

    I have three ipods - iPod #1 has only been synced to iTunes. I want to transfer songs from iPod #2 to iPod #3 without having all of the existing iTunes from iPod #1 getting synced to iPod #3. How do I upload iPod #2 to iTunes and keep it isolated, and then sync only thos songs to iPod #3?
    I can not figure out how to upload the songs to my Library without losing them in the muck of the thousands of other songs that are already in the Library.
    I am a new user but I find that navigating iTunes is extremely non-user friendly...
    Thank you!

  • How to burn song from Shuffle onto disc

    How do I burn a song from my Shuffle onto a disc?

    You can't burn a song that is on a shuffle to a disc.  Find the song that is on the shuffle in your iTunes Music library.
    Create a new playlist in iTunes.
    NOTE:  If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the menu bar, under View, selectShow Sidebar.  Click the plus sign at the bottom of the sidebar, to create a new playlist.
    Drag that song to the new playlist in the sidebar, or right-click on song and Add to Playlist...  Add any other songs you want to burn to disc.
    In the sidebar, select the playlist.  The order of songs on the playlist will be the track order on the disc (if you are burning an Audio CD).  Drag songs on list to change order. 
    Right-click on playlist, and select Burn Playlist to Disc.

    Updating your iPod's software, whether a major update or not, will re-sync the music to it from the computer after the software is finished installing.

    Unless the music is bought from iTunes, then you won't be able to transfer it without third-party software.
    You won't be able to transfer music that wasn't purchased from the iTunes Store using an iPod Touch because the Ipod Touch (First-Generation anyway, as far as I know) doesn't allow disk use.
    I do not know of any third party software that is completely free and provides this ability through its demo.
    Here is an article from Apple that you can use if you have any other kind of iPod available to use that allows disk use:

  • How to copy contacts from one icloud account to another?

    I need to transfer most contacts on my icloud account to my wife's icloud account, and I was wondering if there's a "copy and paste" way to do it. Manually coping each contact would be too time consuming. I could sign on to the icloud on her iphone, and all the contacts would appear, but I really don't want her to use my Icloud account. And when I tried  to sign off from her phone, all the contacts disappeared.
    So I thought the easiest way is to copy contacts on my icloud from a pc, then paste them to her account. Is this feasible?

    Might be easiest to export (via File, Export) a vcf file,  with all contacts  and then import into your wife's contacts app (via File, Import).

  • How to transfer purchases from one Apple account to another?

    I've used my family's apple id for years, I've probably put $1000 into apps and music, but I'm finally moving out. My mom doesn't want me accessing her email so she's making me get my own id. I don't want to lose all the apps and games and data I have saved, so is there any way to transfer all those purchases to my account?

    You will not be able to Transfer anything from your family's Apple ID to your New Apple ID.
    Anything Purchased / Downloaded using the family Apple ID remains Tied to that Apple ID.

  • How do i transfer songs from my library to my ipod in the new itunes window

    Tee ipod used to show up in the left column, and you could just drag songs from your library to the ipod. Now the ipod icon is in the top right hand corner. And I cant drop and drag songs.

    Go to the view menu and turn on show sidebar. It will look more like it did before.

  • How to copy songs from one mac profile to another mac profile

    I have 3 profiles on my Imac. One for myself and 2 for my daughters. My daughter has purchased songs to her profile. I would like to listen to them also.  They do not show up in my profile.   How do i copy them to my profile. We use one apple ID and  all purchase music through the same apple ID.
    thanks.

    Are they connected via a network? If so, copy the windows music folder to public and the mac should be able to copy them off there. If not, you will need a flash drive/cd/hard drive to transport them to the other.
    If you have a scattered library like most, you will need to go to tools>options>library and click on the setting to rearrange media files according to rip settings. This should consolidate them much like iTunes does in your music folder so you don't have to go searching for them all.
