How to fast-switch to another user while keeping iTune playing music

it's really bugging me as my wife is getting addict to iTune. I've to find a way to switch back to my logon to work on my own stuff. Please help.

You could just restart. It should warn you that another user is logged in, but still allow you to override.
While not technically "logging them out" you can kill their windowserver process in Activity Monitor. I don't know, but I would think the Restart option would be more elegant for that user wrt open documents.

  • How to keep Itunes playing music when switching from one user account to another?

    On my old pc, that running XP, itunes would continue playing when I was switching from one user account to another.
    Now I have a new PC running win8 and the music stops playing when I switch from one user account to another. I think Itunes is still running on the user that is not active, but the music is not coming out of the speekers.
    Does anyone know how I can get the win8 pc to do as the old XP machine?

    Hello over here,
    The steps below detail how to place an input chooser that will allow for the adjustment of your keyboard layout while on the login screen.
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    Click Users & Groups to display the pane (or choose User & Groups from the View menu).
    If the lock icon in the lower-left corner of the window is closed, click it, then enter the name and password of an administrator to unlock it.
    Click Login Options.
    Select the "Show Input menu in login window" checkbox.
    From the Apple menu, choose Log Out.
    At the login window, click the Input menu (shows the name of the currently selected input source next to a keyboard icon) in the upper-right corner of the screen, then select the desired input source or keyboard layout. If you don't see the input source you are looking for, move the pointer over Other Input Sources, then select the input source from the complete list that appears.

  • On Safari, How do I switch to another user account?

    But the hiccup is that I can't launch Safari. I wanna try and test another user account for trouble shooting purposes. But the question is, how do I switch if I can't launch it? Anyone out there in the universe have an idea?
    Would appreciate the help.
    Thanks!
    - Michael

    If you can't launch Safari, that probably means it's crashing on launch. Launch the Console application and look under "User Diagnostic Reports" for crash logs related to Safari, WebProcess, or PluginProcess. Select the most recent one and post the contents -- the text, please, not a screenshot.
    These instructions may not apply if you're really on 10.4 as your profile says.

  • How do I take off another user off my iTunes account? It's a x family member and we share one iTunes account but I'm the main person on it.

    A ex family member is under my iTunes account and I need to try to remove him but can't figure it out.

    You can edit the information on your Apple account in a number of places (they all link together)
    On Apple.com - http://store.apple.com/us/account/home
    On the Apple ID Website - https://appleid.apple.com
    On iTunes - Choose Store > 'View Account' from the Menu Bar.
    On an iOS Device - Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store > Tap on the 'Apple ID' > Tap 'View Apple ID'
    Good Luck!

    How do I switch to another partitioned drive?

    Am I missing something?
    Yes, the partition has to be bootable to be used as a startup partition. You would need to install OSX on the partition.

    I have iTunes on my iPad. I have a new iPod nano. How do I connect iPod to iPad to download iTunes and music library?

    Hi Divine Inspiration,
    You wouldn't connect the iPod to the iPad for data transfers. Music is stored and shared either through a computer or iCloud.
    This article gives an overview of moving music and data off the iPad.

  • How do I switch Apple ID users to get music from one computer to an iPad?

    My iPad doesn't let me change my Apple ID to let me sync music and I don't know if deleting the current account on the iPad will permanantly delete it, which I do not want to do....... How can I switch users without deleting the current one?

    Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap the ID and sign out. Sign in with the ID that you want to use. This will not delete the account - it just switches the account that you are currently using.
    You have to be signed into the same Apple ID on the computer as well.
