I had a iPod befor it was on my moms laptop and know I got a iPhone and my own laptop how do I get my iTunes account on my laptop so I can hook my phone to my laptop on the same account as my iPod

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You first need to sign into the account in iTunes on your laptop, then you need to transfer the content from your moms laptop and import it into iTunes on yours. You can do this in a number of ways, either over a network, with an external drive, or even a USB stick.
If you go to iTunes preferences > advanced on your moms laptop, it will tell you where the original files can be found.

iPhone 4 used to connect to internet site when email had reference to the site and I requested it. iPhone stopped doing this. How do I get it to resume doing it?

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds). No data will be lost.

How can I separate 2 ipads which are on the same account?

I have an ipad and my husband also recently bought one. Unfortunately my son set my husband's ipad up on the same account as mine so we now have exactly the same music and photos on both plus my Gmail account is sending the messages to both. How can I separate these now but still carry on using the same laptop?

You will have to transfer the ringtones from the phone that has them to your iTunes library.
File>Transfer Purchases.
Then you can sync them to the other phone.

HT2534 How can i download from two different store with the same account?

I live in both countries but my credit card is registered in a french bank, therefore it is not recognised by the Aussie store on itunes. There are apps or music i want to get form the Aussie store as well as music and other apps from the french one...
Is it possible to have two stores under the same account????? I wish apple could fix this, which could result in more spending as you can buy from different store!

Wait 90 days
Why would you start a new account? Why not just correct the original account?

HT1386 When I try to synch my husband's Iphone, it tells me that I need to download the latest version of Itunes. So I did that, still tells me to download. I can synch my phone just fine, its exactly the same as my husbands.

I have downloaded Itunes 10 to bvoth teh phone and to my PC. Help!

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

HT4759 Is it true that when setting up devices with the find my phone app you must use the same account for ICloud ? If so how do I delete a current account to make it read as the other ICloud accounts?

I'm setting up my devices with the find my phone app. I have accomplished setting up 2 devices. The third I can't setup because I can't change the iCloud account.
My understanding from reading that the iCloud accounts must use the same name on all devices. How do I change that account in my phone settings?

You don't have to use the same iCloud account in order to track all your devices. You just have to sign into the iCloud account being used on the device you are trying to track in order to track it. When you sign in on icloud.com and open Find My iPhone, you will see all the devices with Find My iPhone enabled that are using the account you signed in with. To track a device using a different account, simply sign out, then sign back in using the ID the new device is using.
The Find My iPhone app works the same way. It will display devices based on the iCloud account you sign in with on the app. To track a device using a different account, sign out, then sign back in with the iCloud ID that the new device is using.

TS1474 Two iPhones sharing the same iTunes account - how do we create a new account for one of them now that both phones have been registered with the same account?

We have recently upgraded 2 iPhones to the 4S and are having difficulties registering with the same log in and passwords in iTunes.
How can we re-register one of them with it's own identity and avoid the same apps being copied o both devices?
We would like each iPhone to have it's own identity but use the same computer for backing up.

Hi, you will need to set up a new user account on the computer. The iTunes on this new user will be empty but you can download past iTunes purchases from the iTunes store

Can you display more than one library from the same account?

If I open iTunes on two computers in my house, I can only show one library on my apple tv. When I turn on the second computer, the first library goes away.
Can you show one at the same time?
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes you can share more than one library at a time, just make sure that the homesharing ID and password you use for each one is the same on all of the libraries.

Can a tethered phone also be bridged (to the same PB) ?

My friend has tethered her PB to her blackberry bold as she couldn't bridge successfully. Now she has her bridge and bbm s/w updated on her blackberry, but cannot bridge (and get her bbm across). I am wondering is this perhaps because she is already tethered. If so, how does one untether?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

delete the BT pairing in BT profile on both devices.
then it will no longer tether.
Then set up Bridge.

HT1495 I have just purchased a second ipod and have 2 computers can i use one ipod on each computer with the same account. I have a different playlist on my second computer. Thanks,

I have just purchased a second ipod and have two computers w7 and xp, can i use one on each computer with the same account. I have a different playlist on my second computer. Thanks.

Sorry to ask, how do I do it please. I have my first ipod with the same account on both computers that have different libraries one of which I am building now. Do I have to de-authorise my original ipod on the computer that I want to use my new ipod on with the new library and then register my new ipod. I would rather do this than have 2 libraries on one itunes, but keep the same account details.

Is iTunes wi-fi sync the same as syncing an ipod?

I'm not sure I want to do iTunes Match because it costs $25 a year—and on top of every other bill in the house, this adds up, even if it's a seemingly paltry sum.
But we want the iPad to play music, so I see we can do wi-fi syncing. Is this the same as syncing an iPod in the sense that actual music files are copied over onto the iPad?
I ask because I am not able to try it myself at the moment (my iTunes, the only one in-house at the moment) is an older version. iPad belongs to someone else in the family.
Thanks!

match is letting your ios device play music stored in the "cloud" so you need not sync the songs to the ios device
this is what you pay for
if you sync the music to the device and or access the shared lib of your computer when connected to your home wifi network is free no matter what
