HT204053 I have bought my grandchildren an ipad and want to set up separate account for this. Is that possible?
I was wondering if a separate account can be sep-up in your itunes account as I have reached my limit on downloading ipads and would like to sep-up a new account so my grandchildren can play with their ipad
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If she creates her own iTunes account she can't use any protected content purchased under another account. She can play unprotected content synced from an iTunes library on a computer, but she can only download content from the cloud that is purchased under her account.
It's a pain I know, but the longer you put off the move, the worse the situation will become.

Hi, can anyone tell me if I can have more than one iTunes account on the same PC. I've just bought my wife an iPad2 and want to create a separate account for her. Can I do that on the same PC as mine? Thanks.
I would advise that you not set up a second Apple ID. It's really not necessary - having two Apple IDs won't affect how iTunes works with your iPads - and will just complicate matters. Each iPad will be treated independently and can be set to sync only the items you want on that particular iPad. If you really want to keep the two iPads separate, set up different iTunes libraries and have only those items you want on the related iPad in that library, rather than a different Apple ID. If you plan not to use a computer and just download directly to the iPads, you can again choose what apps and content each iPad gets.
But answering your specific question, you can have content from up to five iTunes Store accounts on any one computer or iPad. To create a new iTunes Store account, you'll need a different email address, and from there you just create the account the same way you did the first one.

I have bought music in my ipad and want it on my iPhone also. I cannot connect to a computer and thought there was something I could press on the iPhone to get the music on all my devices.
Re-download music on the iPhone using the Purchased sections of iTunes app, it's in the bottom right corner under the More menu.
Note for the future: Settings > iTunes and App Store > (Automatic Downloads) Music > On -

I have an ipod with itunes and apps loaded on it. I bought a new iphone 5c and want to set it up. It wants me to create a new account. Should I create a new accountor use the existing ipod account?
If you want you're apps and content on you're iPhone then use you're existing account. If not then create a new account.

My daughter received an I phone for Christmas and we set it up using my iTunes account. She just received an iPad and wants to set up her own iTunes account. How do we do that without losing all of her content that she added to my iTunes account. I have home sharing on my account.

My wife and I share the iPad. Can we set up separate accounts to log in (like on our Mac)?
Good question, but I'm 99.9% certain the answer is "no". Here are some considerations:
Think of the heritage of iOS. It really started with iPhones and maybe iPods. These devices cost a whole lot less than a Mac. They are generally not thought of as shared (with exceptions, of course, as is true for you).
Think of the backup process. i-devices typically sync with one iTunes on one computer. How would an i-device with multiple users enstantiate this?
Anyway, all this is to say I'm convinced you cannot do what you're inquiring about. -
I have created a email in Fireworks and wanted to make a line of text a hyperlink that would take the viewer to a page on my website. I want to attach the final document to my email and sending it out.
1) design for no wider than 600px (otherwise it may not fit in email clients).
2) Slice up your newsletter design in segments for images and html areas with the slice tool.
3) add the <a href="http://www.yourwebsite.com">my website</a> link in one of the html areas.
4) export as generic html 4 code, and put the images in a separate folder.
5) upload all the images to your website's server in a folder (you cannot embed images in an email newsletter - they must link to externally hosted images).
6) change all the links in your html page to the ones that were loaded up on your server. For example, an image's source link would work out similar to this: <img src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/newsletter/image1.jpg" alt="alternate description of your image">
7) open the newsletter with working external images in Chrome or Firefox. Select the entire page content (ctrl-a), and copy it (ctrl-c).
8) create a new email in your mail client. Place the cursor in the body. Paste the newsletter (ctrl-v).
9) send your newsletter to hundreds of recipients, and get blacklisted by several email servers. Receive warning messages from your own hosting provider not to spam other users' email accounts.
10) realize this is too much of a hassle, and instead opt for a service such as MailChimp.
(The result in (9) depends on whether you sent out your newletter only to acquaintances, or not. But even then you might be warned off.)
Btw, many email clients turn off images in an email by default. You must provide the most important content as html, not as images. -
I started an itunes download on my ipad and want to finish on my pc, is this possible?
I started a large tv season itunes download on my ipad and want to finish on my pc, is this possible? Thanks
I don't think so. Any download wants the whole complete file. I know if I update apps over the air, iTunes will download the whole file again on my computer.

I have elements 11 on my mac and want to upgrade to elements 13 but it seems that the elements 13 upgrade is only for windows. Is there a mac edition to this upgrade?
Yes, certainly, but if you're in the US I would just download the trial and use that for now, since there will be plenty of deals on the full version come the start of the holiday shopping season, especially at places like amazon and big box stores. Usually for much less than adobe's upgrade price.

I have recently purchased a new iPhone, but my husband has the iTunes account on his email. We want to set up separate accounts however we want to share all of our music from iTunes. Is there a way to only share music only (not contacts, apps, etc)?
You are most welcome
Each post should have the text "this helped me" or "this solved my question," or something similar. Just click on whichever one applies to that particular post!

I have an iTunes account for my personal iPod Touch - have had for several years. When my work provided me with an iPhone and now and iPad 2, they all fall under my personal iTunes account. Is it possible for me to create a separate account for my work devices and apps, while leaving my personal account intact? I use both my compter at home and at work to sync occasionally.
A much simpler solution would be to go into Settings > Store and turn off Automatic Downloads

I have 2 ipods on one id (mine and my sons) and want to change to separate ids as fed up of listening to his music can this be done?
No reason for a different ID. Just do not sync his music. Also in Settings>iTunes and App Store make sure that Automatic Downloads are turned OFF

Is music created in logic pro compatible with the logic pro x ? for instance if you have created something in logic pro and want to add or tweak it, is that possible? I suppose you would need the original logic folder?
Yes it is more or less compatible, except the use of 32 bit plugins, which is prohibited from now on. So although you're able to open Logic projects as far as down to v5 I believe, it is advisable to remain for 'adding and tweaking' in your pre LPX environment.

HT204053 i want to use a gmail id for iCloud, its that possible ?
i want to use various gmail id for icloud, it is possible ?
You can use a GMail address to set up an Apple ID (you have to use a non-Apple address for this) and then use that to sign into iCloud. However iCloud only handles its own addresses - [email protected] - and you can't use it with any other email address.
