How to separate two itunes accounts

I got a new computer and my dads and I's iTunes is now combined together. How do I seperate our music from eachothers?

Create a new iTunes library, either by creating a new Windows user account or launching iTunes with the Shift key held down, and import the music files to it.

  • How to merge two itunes accounts on two different computers?

    When I originally set up my iTunes account I did not have my own laptop. I used my sisters laptop for this which now has her own iTunes account stored on it.
    However, my tunes which I have purchased are also part of this account.
    Obviously my sister is fine with me having access to these tunes, however I would like to have them stored in the account I have set up on my own laptop now that I have my own device.
    Is there any way I can merge both accounts or the content of the accounts without losing anything we have purchased or uploaded?
    Is this 'merging the libraries?', I didn't think it would be as they are on different computers?
    Any help here would be great as I am driving my husband mad with this!
    Thank you!

    Hi Carolyn,
    Thanks for this.
    Do you think there is any way to get the content of the libraries onto one account?
    Would home sharing work just to facilitate the movement of the tracks?
    Thanks again!

  • HT1473 Please help!How to put two iTunes accounts on the same computer?

    I have an Ipod and my mum has an IPhone. The songs from my IPod are backed up on my computer and we would like to have different music, but both backed up on the same computer. How do i do this without erasing all the music etc that is already on my mums phone?

    Launch iTunes with the Shift key held down, create a new library, and import her song files to it. Alternatively, create a new user account on the computer, move the song files to a shared area, and then import them.

  • How to separate one ITunes account into 2.

    When I bought my son an iPod touch last year I just set it up using my existing Apple ID. Now I would like to separate them so I only see my things and he only sees his. How do I do that?

    You will have to create a new Apple ID for your son, assuming that he is at least 13 years old. You can't split one Apple ID into 2.

    Welcome to AD!
    You don't. As far as I know from reading posts here on AD, everyone who has asked for this hasn't gotten it.
    Contact ITS support here to make sure, though.

    Not sure what you mean.
    An account is a user name and password.
    Sign into whichever account you want to use for purchasing.
    Authorize the computer for both account to listen to the content.

    Items purchased from the iTunes Store are permanently associated with the account from which they were originally purchased.  Apple provides no way to change this.
    However, if you wish to put content from two accounts into a single iTunes library, you can easily do so.  Use the command File > Add File (or Folder) to Library.

  • How can my wife and I use our two iTunes account on one iPad

    How can my wife and I use our two iTunes accounts on one IPad

    Unfortunately it will be difficult. iPads are personal devices like phones and done have credentials. You can of course log out of and into the app store to download purchased apps but the iPad will then have all the apps of both your wife and you (though you could put these into folders I guess).

  • How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?

    How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?
    Hi there
    My partner has a works iPad, which has her works Apps on (ones that are specifically made by her company and are NOT available in the App store).
    What I want to be able to do is to ALSO have my itunes account on there so that I can put all the apps I have purchased previously from my iPhone on it.
    This is so I can put on VLC player (thats already in my itunes account) so I can add videos to the iPad.
    How do I do this please?
    I tried it before by connecting it to my mac, but it wiped everything off the iPad completely and also deleted the data settings for using 3G.
    So I want to avoid this happening again the future as it had to be sent back to her head office to be sorted again.
    Any advise please?
    Thanks

    You can't. The iPad is desgined to be a 'one user' device and only really works with one apple ID at a time.
    The only way would be if she, at work and with her work apple id, downloaded your apps (repurchasing them of course).
    It's not meant to be a multiple user/multiple ID device.

  • I have two iTunes accounts on one computer.  Is it possible to share between the two?  If so, how do I do it?

    I have two ITunes accounts on one computer.  One is a classic iPod, the other is for a Nano with a different user.  Is it possible to "share" playlists?  If so, how do I go about doing that?

    videoDVD is a delivery format, normally end of the of the road...
    but, you can convert dvds into something editable, you need 3rd party tools, your options are, in recommended order:
    * DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
    * Apple mpeg2 plugin (20$) + Streamclip (free)
    * Cinematize >60$
    * Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
    * Toast6/7 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
    * connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter

  • How do I MERGE the purchases of two iTunes accounts into one Family Share?

    We have purchased many apps via two iTunes accounts.  How do we merge these purchases into on Family Share account

    Hi MacHead2010,
    I am not quite sure exactly what you mean by your question. It is not possible to merge two iTunes Store accounts. See this article for reference -
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
    Using Family Sharing, however, does allow all members of a Family Sharing group to use the content such as music, apps, etc on each other's devices.
    See this article for how to set up Family Sharing -
    OS X Yosemite: Set up Family Sharing
    This article will tell you what content can be shared -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
