HT3819 can i add a samsung phone to my itunes account?

My husband has a Samsung phone and I was wondering if I could add his device to my itunes account so that I can put our child's music on his phone.

It depends on what you're trying to do.
If you're trying to sync it with an iTunes library, yes.
If you're trying to associate it with iTunes Match or automatic downloads, yes, if that wouldn't cause you to exceed the limit of 10 devices.
If you're trying to authorize a computer to use protected iTunes Store content, no; the limit for this is five.

    The bottom section (iTunes part) gives instructions. The first few panels discuss backing up the old phone but then it gets into restoring to the new phone: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109

  • Can i add an additional iphone to my itunes account and how?

    can I add an additional Iphone on my itunes account or can i have multiple itunes accounts on my computer?  thanks, sd

    You can do both. Adding a second iPhone is no more complicated than adding the first; you can also have multiple iTunes libraries on a computer and content from multiple iTunes Store accounts in a library. If a library contains protected content from more than five iTunes Store accounts, you may run into trouble when syncing.

    how do i add a 6th devices to my itunes account

    ... however you can deauthorize older computers you no longer need to have authorized to your account to make way for a new one. If you have access to specific machines you can deauthorize individually inside iTunes, otherwise you can deauthorize all, then (re)authorize the machines you want.
    See HT1420: iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization.

  • Can I add a second device to my iTunes account but keep the downloads from each separate

    I have family plan with provider and have added a phone for a family member. Is it possible to make purchases from the app store on the new device but charge my itunes account? If so, would those downloads be shared between devices or could they be kept seperate? I do not want my purchases to appear on the new device or vice versa.
    Thanks

    You can change the name of the new iPad to something else by connecting it to iTunes and selecting the name. When the name highlights you can change it.

  • Can I add a second email to my iTunes account?

    MMy wife is getting an iPhone and I would like to add her to my iTunes account. Is this possible or does she need to open her own account?

    she needs to have her own Apple ID but the two of you can share your iTunes account. 
    In the fall, Apple is adding the ability to share apple purchases with family. 
    Until then, you can sync from a common account .
    My sons and I each have our own Apple ID and we don't have the same content, but we do have some apps and music we share. 
    We share one library on a common computer with no problems.
    There is a minor inconvenience when updating, you may have to enter your password if a paid app needs updating on her device.

  • Can you back up two phones on one itunes account?

    I have just purchased an iPhone5s and want to transfer all of my information from my iPhone4s onto it. I was told that this could be done by first backing up my phone using itunes. Sounded simple.
    Now i am having great difficulties!
    My wife nacked up her phone earlier this year. Every time i go to back up my phone (turning on itunes and then plugging my phone in via usb) it comes up with two options - set up as a new iphone OR restore from my wife's phone.
    I am really unsure what to do here. I fear losing all the data on my phone.
    Is it possible for the one itunes account to back-up two phones?
    Please help.
    Thank you in advance.

    Select setup as "New", the next screen should prompt you to rename your phone. Just name it what you already have it named. After that, you should be able to sync/backup and all of your data & settings will still be exactly as you've already set them up on your phone. That message is more threatening than what really happens.

  • How can I add the macbook pro to my itunes account.

    I went in to manage devices, but it only allows me to view the devices currently added or remove.  I want to add two new macbook pros for my girls so they can download from my account.

    Open iTunes... 
    If you're using iTunes 11 click on the box icon in the top-left corner to see the " Show Menu Bar " 
    and from the Menu Bar select Store...
    From the Store menu, choose Authorize This Computer.
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Authorize.

    If you have completed the info for a contact there will be additional spaces for more phone numbers. If you have not added a number yet, simply tap the word to the left of the blank phone number space to change the category.

  • Why the **** can I only sync my phone with one itunes program. Perhaps I have two computers with music on them that i'd like to add to my iphone,ipad,itouch,ipod. Fix this please thanks.

    Why the **** can I only sync my phone with one itunes program. Perhaps I have two computers with different music on both of them that i'd like to add to my iphone,ipad,itouch,ipod. Fix this please thanks.

    Becasue that is the way the ****** iphone is designed.
    You can only sync with one ******computer.
    There is nothing to ****** fix.
    It is the ****** design of the iphone.  It is ****** by design.

  • How can I add a new user to my managed account?

    *There is an existing skype user.  i.e She already has a skype account
    *I have a Skype Manager account and want to provide her with SkypeCredit
    *I am having trouble doing that.  It seems that I can add a new member to my group only if they are a new user (i.e. they get a new skype address). Then I seem to have learned that this might not be possible if I or they (?) are in the US.
    Will someone clarify this?
    Skype support tells me that: 
    "Reymark C: I am afraid adding members in somewhere in US is no longer available."
    Is this somewhere on the help pages that I missed.  Being logged-in, skype knows where I am (or where I list my home as).  Why did it let me waste so much time struggling with this?
    Also, why is there this restriction?
    ...after much other talk.....
    L JEPSON: Question: Can I add skype credit to another person's account?
    Reymark C: That;s only possible once he is already added to your manage account.
    L JEPSON: You said I cannot add members in the US.
    Reymark C: Those are only possible outside US.
    L JEPSON: So I can not add anyone to my manager account, b/c I am in the US, correct?
    Aside, why can't the skype support use skype-screenshare?  I wanted to show what I saw.  Instead, we had me sign some online contract, gave control of my computer to the support person.  Spent a fair amount of time doing this.   Enable your users to use skype to see our screens, please, Microsoft.  You can still record the conversation and record the screenshare, can't you?

    Hello Zach,
    I understand that you have been unable to authorize the purchases on
    your iTunes account "[email protected]" due to three previous
    account names not authorizing for you. I am sorry to hear about this
    Zach. I can certainly appreciate how eager you must be to have this
    resolved. My name is Liz, and I will be more than happy to help you
    with this today!
    If your computer is not currently authorized to play your previous
    account name's purchases, when you double-click an item you
    purchased before you renamed the account, the authorization dialog
    may show the old account name. If this happens, you will need to
    remove the old account name from the account name field, type the
    new account name, and click Authorize. This authorizes your computer
    to play the account's purchases.
    If you are unsure about which account was used to purchase a
    particular item, follow these steps:
    1) Control-click (or right-click) the item in your iTunes Library.
    2) Choose Get Info from the menu that appears.
    3) Click the Summary tab. The account name will be listed on the
    right.
    If you need further assistance in locating the current account name,
    please reply with the account name listed in your items' Summary
    tab. In addition, please include the order number for those items if
    possible.
    You can locate order numbers by following these instructions on
    reviewing your purchase history:
