HT1203 How can I sync my iPad to my iTunes account ( which has 2 seperate emails &/or user ID's)?

I had a different email account when I downloaded iTunes to my computer, and had NO problems syncing my iTouch to that same iTunes account, but when I tried to sync my iPad (which had a different email) to that same iTunes acct. Im not able to sync it no matter what I try i cant sync either my music playlist OR my APPS from my iTouch to my iCloud.  When I tried to ADD new email to my APPLE ID preferences, it comes up with a message saying "That Apple ID is already in use".....but I had signed out of my PC email? Please someone help, I would be so grateful as I have been trying to figure this out on my own for almost 2 months.  My husband suggested this since calling 1(800)MY APPLE won't help unless I pay $20.00 for Each question!

This may be over the top for 15 ipads.

  • How can i sync 15 iPads to 1 iTunes account quickly and easily?

    I am in charge of 15 iPads in my school.
    I would like to sync all the ipads to one itunes account easily and quickly. At the moment i am doing this manually 1 at a time.
    The ipads do all have apps on them now, but when i download new apps or software updates, i have to sync it across each ipad 1 at a time through itunes.
    I would also like to create a new itunes account, to keep 1 set (15) of ipads sperate from another set we have in school. Could i transfer purchases to the new itunes from 1 iPad, then sync across the remaining 14?
    We have a spare computer that could soley be used for itunes or alternatiely, i have a personal macbook pro, that has my personal library on it.
    The ipads are contained in a storage/charging station, that can be connected to a pc/mac via a usb cable (connection is similar to a printer port, then into USB).
    I have connected the container to the pc via USB and itunes recognises the 15 ipads, but i still have to sync them individually.
    I would like to be able to connect the container, click sync and leave it over night, rather than sit there for hours.
    Is this possible?
    Must be other people in similar situations as many schools have ipads now.
    Thanks in advance!

  • 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.

  • Can I sync 2 iPhones to one itunes account but have seperate yahoo contacts

    We have 2 iPhones and want to be able to share the same itunes account which doesn't seem to be a problem. However we can't seem to have separate yahoo contacts synced with the two separate phones. It wants to keep putting my wife's contacts on my phone or vice a versa. Now our Yahoo contacts are all mucked up. Any help would be appreciated. I can't believe we can't do this.

    You can sync many devices to one itunes account. I, for instance, have two ipods and an iphone on one account. They all have different setting and contents, but still only sync to one itunes account.
    Yes you and your wife can use one itunes account.

  • How do I add an ipad to my itunes account which was previously associated with another account and user?

    how do I add an ipad to devices in my itunes account which was previously associated with another account?

    Just sign into your own ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store. Sign out of the old ID and sign into your ID. I get the feeling though, that there is more to what you are trying to do or want to do and I'm not understanding or you are not explaining completely.
    If this is a previously owned iPad, it should have been erased before you got possession of it.

  • How can i sync my phone with blank itunes account

    Accidentally wiped my itunes a few weeks back (hey ho) so whilst I have nothing to loose I thought I'd take the opportuninty to move my itunes to my laptop.
    Ive installed itunes onto laptop and know that I need to de-authorise itunes on my PC at some point.
    How do I sync my iphone 4 (which still has stuff on) with empty itunes on laptop without losing everything off my phone?
    Ive done a phone back up to PC and an icloud back up but stuck as what to do now as I now have 2 empty itunes and stuff on my phone that I can't seem to sync

    Yes, windows to Mac too.
    iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
    Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings:  Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive.  Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

  • How can I sync 2 iPhones w/ 1 iTunes account separately?

    I have 2 iPhones, 1 iTunes account (on one computer). I want the phones to sync separately - I don't want shared contacts, notes, calendars... nothing. I have separate playlists for music on the phones, which is working fine. Every time I sync contacts get screwd up or notes get deleted or iBooks or notes get copied from one phone to the other. I've tried many settings trying to stop this. I do NOT want a separate login for each phone.
    What are the right settings (or is the correct way) to sync 2 iPhones without copying or deleteing info from one or the other?

    An iTunes account is used for purchasing.

    Nothing gets copied from one iPhone to the other.
    Everything gets copied from iTunes/computer to iPhone.
    Select the iPhone iTunes, click the tabs across top and select what you want to sync.
    I do NOT want a separate login for each phone.
    Then you are not going to be able to always sync different data.
    Notes are notes. It's sync them or not.
    Calendars and contacts you can select specific groups and calendars though I would recommend using iCloud (not iTunes) to sync this.

  • How can I sync a playlist from my itunes account to my friends iPad?

    When I connect the ipad to my macbook and open itunes there is not a 'sync music' option as usual, only 'Itunes match is on' and the option to sync voice memos?

    You don't.  That's akin to piracy.  iTunes content is tied to one Apple Id, you cannot share it between devices.
    If your friend has the songs on the playlist in their iPad they can recreate the playlist, but there is no way to transfer content between accounts.

  • How can I sync my iPad mini with itunes version 10.6.5? My mac says it is up to date.

    My iPad mini won't sync up to my iMac as it says I need a different version of iTunes.  when I try to update iTunes it says I am already up to date.  Any suggestions?

    You need iTunes version 10.7 or later. Your OS, however, Mac OS X 10.5.8, does not support a newer version of iTunes. You need to upgrade your computer's OS. If your Mac has an Intel processor, buy Snow Leopard: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard. It is compatible with the latest version of iTunes.

  • How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
    also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

  • How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices

    How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices.

    Plug it into your computer. Tell it to sync with "this computer" instead of iCloud. You shouldn't have to remove any apps. Otherwise, you can save the app data by using i-FunBox ( http://www.i-funbox.com/ ) just go to the "devices" tab and select 'user applications' and select all of your apps and tell iFunBox to "copy to pc" you're done! You have them all backed up.

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such a reason.  Use your backup copy to put everything on the new computer.
