HT3819 how to use home sharing using a different apple id?

I use to have a regular ipod where I would buy music from itunes using my parents email account and apple id, but now I have an ipod touch where I set it up using my own email and apple id, how do I transfer my music from my parents desktop to my laptop? I'm having difficulties doing so because we don't use the same apple id. Is there a way this can be done?

You could copy the music to a DVD to your laptop then authorize it to play the songs purchased with that other Apple ID.

    How do I use Home Sharing with two different apple accounts?

    Morning Saintine,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Home Sharing enables you to stream or transfer music, movies, TV shows, apps, and more among up to five authorized computers in your household. To do so, you will need to Turn on Home Sharing on each computer using the same Apple ID.

  • Can i use home sharing when two different apple accounts are on the same computer?

    will home sharing work when two iTunes Libraries are on the same computer?

    Can you be more clear about what you mean. More detail please.
    Is this the solution you are looking for?
    Log in to both user accounts and launch iTunes. Turn on Home Sharing from the 'Advanced' menu at the top of the screen.
    Leave iTunes running and use Fast User Switching to switch between user accounts. You will notice that each user's library of media is available to the other user and you can copy media from the other user to the current user's account.

    If you have home sharing turned on in the settings of your apple tv and your iPad you can AirPlay from your iPad to the apple tv. When you play a video there is a tv icon on the right side of the play/pause/fwd/rwd icons. Click that and choose your apple tv. Your apple tv and iPad must be on the same network.

    Updated iTunes to 11.1.  Can view home shared iMac computer on one of my Apple TV's but not the other Apple TV.  Did Apple TV reset, restore, re-installed iTunes 11.1 on my iMac, checked network (it tested fine), but still cannot get my iTunes library to show up on one of my Apple TV's (it shows up fine on my other Apple TV).  Any suggestions?

    people who keep their routers default name and live in populated areas can easily connect by mistake to another open network if the router have the same ssid

    How do I set up the Home Share when there are 2 different Apple ID's? Spouse and I. We each have accounts but are trying to share music. Is this possible? Can I reset my Apple ID and Password?

    Hello HopeFloat12,
    Thanks for the question. Depending on the circumstances, and what you wish to achieve, there are a couple of options:
    A) Home Sharing
    B) Music Sharing
    C) iTunes Match (Subscription $24.99/yr)
    The following article outlines the differences between Home Sharing and Music Sharing, I have also included a link to the marketing page for iTunes Match:

  • HT3819 what is the role of the internet connection in home sharing. is home sharing using up my limited internet download allowance.n

    What is the role of the internet in using Home Sharing. Does using home sharing use up my limited amount of available internet download ?
    Thanks Mike Anderson

    Home sharing allows you to play music across devices via wifi, so it shouldn't impact your limited amount. Think of it as streaming as opposed to downloading.

  • HT3819 How do I share just one movie (not my entire library) from my itunes library with an authorized computer using home sharing?

    How do I share just one movie (not my entire library) from my itunes library with an authorized computer using home sharing?

    many thanks.
    That should be possible.
    From his library connect to your library via Home Sharing.
    Select the name of the shared library in the source pane of your itunes, and click on the wee disclosure triangle to the left of the name of the library. Does "Films" appear beneath the name of the library?
    Here's a screenshot of what I mean.
    Select "Films". In the right-hand pane you should see the item you want to transfer. Just select that item, and click "Import".
    Use the same basic technique to get one or a few songs from your library transferred to his library. (The only difference is that you would have "Music" selected instead of "Films".
    If you don't want him to have access to other items in your library, you could just switch Home Sharing off on his library after you've done the transfers.

  • Can't figure out how to use home sharing

    Since the latest couple iTunes updates, my family and I can not figure out how to use home sharing. Everyone in our household has their own iTunes, and for a long time we would just share our music through home sharing. But with the updates, so much has changed that we can no longer figure out how to use it.
    I have a lot of purchased albums on another laptop in the house, that im trying to move it all over to my own iTunes, and I have spent a long time searching the internet, and everything. And I just can't figure out how to do it. So.... how does it work now? I would really like to get these albums from my moms iTunes, onto mine. I would hate to have to buy them all over again.
    If anyone is able to help me out here, that would be great! Thanks!

    The problem im having is that after I am in another library through home sharing, I can't figure out how to select an album and import it to my library. They used to have it set up so that you just highlight all of the songs you want, and then all you had to do was click import. Now I don't even see an import button, or anything else like it. So im lost... I don't know if it's something im doing wrong, or if our home sharing system just isn't working properly.
    Thanks for the help.

  • Multiple users, devices & Apple IDs in the house. Can we, and how would we, use Home Sharing?

    We have three users in the house, each with their own Apple ID, using multiple mac/PC devices.  Can we and how would we use Home Sharing to share music, apps, etc? 

    Do you have a computer. You can't share music or apps from one mobile device to another. To share photos you need to use photo stream shared albums.

  • How can I use home sharing between our iphones (create playlists from both accounts at once)

    How can I use home sharing between our iphones, so that we can create playlists with songs from both of our libraries?  We share a Macbook Pro (separate accounts) and each have the new iphone, but when I have my iphone and try to create a new playlist, I can only grab songs from one account.  Is there a way to create a playlist using both accounts since we are sharing?
    Does it have to be created within iTunes first on our Mac?

    The short answer: because Home Sharing isn't designed for sharing apps, and apps aren't designed to be shared.
    The longer answer:  Think of it like this...
    You download some music in iTunes.  With Home Sharing, another user can listen to it by streaming it over the network.  But the data itself is on your computer.  If you turn off the computer or take it off the network, the other user can't access it.
    But if you send another user the app, they aren't just streaming the data- they installed it on their iOS device.  Because they weren't the one that purchased it, such a transfer could easily be considered "piracy" or "stealing," and nobody likes that (least of all, Apple). 
    When iTunes sees this app, it obviously recognized it, as if saying, "Hey, how did you get this app on your device, if I have no record of you purchasing/downloading it from the iTunes store?"
