HT2688 I don't want duplicate music from my husbands account when we homeshare
My husband and I used to have an option at the bottom of itunes in home sharing where we could choose to see either all of each others music or songs we didn't have in our personal libraries. It made it so much easier because we didn't need to search through each others music for songs that each of us already had. How come this feature is no longer available? I don't want duplicate songs in my iTunes but we each have music the other wants. Does anyone know if this option is gone for good or if something is wrong with our itunes accounts?
The feature still exists, but you need to be logged in with the same Apple-ID on both computers.
So as an example:
Computer 1 logged in with Apple-ID [email protected]
Computer 2 logged in with Apple-ID [email protected]
If not, home sharing does not work

I have my iPhone locked and I don't want the music controls to pop up when I double click the home button. Does anyone know how to make it stop?
what exactly are you trying to accomplish here? i understand that you don't want to see the music status come up on your lock screen, but what are you trying to do by clicking your home button at all?

how do you transfer voice memos from your phone to your macbook? I don't want voice memos from my computer to go to my phone. It's so easy with other PC's.
Hi King Arthur 2000,
Voice memos can be shared back to a computer in a number of different ways, described in this article -

I am trying to take songs from my PC AND My Itunes account and send them to my husband's IPOD TOUCH First Generation BUT I don't want to change my whole ITUNES account that is already on my computer. When I plug HIS Ipod Touch into the PC, my ITUNES account wants me to CHANGE the DEVICE Name on the account and I don't want to do that. I only want to share SOME of my songs on my Itunes account and send them to h is IPOD TOUCH? Is this possible and HOW! Thanks a ton!!! I "checked" off the songs that I want to send but that's as far as I get before it asks me to change the Device Name?
Is his iPod usually synced to a different iTunes library/computer? If so, that would explain the message iTunes is giving you. An iPod is designed to sync with only one computer/iTunes library at a time. If you try to sync it with a new library, the iPod's contents will be erased and replaced with what is in the newer/different iTunes library.
So if there is content you would like to add to his iPod, simply transfer it from your iTunes library to his.

HT2688 how to transfer music from my itunes account to my husbands new iphone
I have an existing itunes account which my husband had purchased music on and now he has a new iphone and, of course, his own itunes account. I have synced but have only managed to download all his apps to my computer...but he still has no music. I have turned on the home share but still hasn't worked. when I've looked online for assistance it says to "turn on the settings for iphone>settings>ipod... well has has no ipod (other than nike + ipod), so I went to settings>music>and signed in to home sharing with his own account ID and PW.... any body have a solution?
I'm confused.
You don't transfer music from an iTunes account. You transfer it from an iTunes library. Plug in the phone and sync it.

Okay.
I have synced but have only managed to download all his apps to my computer...but he still has no music.
You have sync'd your iPhone or his iPhone?
I have turned on the home share but still hasn't worked
Are you trying to Home Share between different computers?
Or between iTunes libraries on the same computer?
Are you using the same computer? Different computers?
Are you using the same computer login or do you each have your own?
If he purchased music previously on your account, is this music in your iTunes library? His iTunes library? Is there only one iTunes library? -

How do I delete my mom's iTunes account from a used laptop she gave me? I don't want to do anything to her account except get it off the laptop so it stops showing up on my iPad, iPhone etc...
Go to iTunes menu, STORE and sign out. Then you can sign in from there or create a new account which should match the account you have on your iPad and iPhone.

How do i upload music from my itunes account to my iphone ?
how do i upload music from my itunes account to my iphone ?
Hi viper1997,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
There are two ways to get music onto your iPhone. If you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer, you can setup manual syncing so that you transfer the playlists, artists or albums that you want on your iPhone.
You can also download music you've already purchased from the iTunes store to your iPhone at any time.
The following links will provide additional information to get you started. You don't mention what computer you are using, so I'll assume a Mac for now, as the basics are the same.
The iPhone User Guide is a good place to start:
Get music - iPhone

Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod

Downloading past purchases from the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

How do I delete music from my ipad? I have deleted the music from my itunes but when I sync it wont come off my ipad.
If you don't want to delete too much then you can do it directly on the iPad. You can either swipe across track names and you should get a delete button, or on the album or artist selection screens you can press and hold an album or artist and you should then get an 'x' on its top corner which will delete the album or artist if you tap it.
If you want to delete more then it may be quicker to connect the iPad to your computer, and on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes under the iPad device you should see a Music section (if you don't see the content types listed then click the arrow next to the iPad's name) - select that and on the right-hand side you should see a list of the music that is on your iPad, and you can then select and delete them. -
