Lisa,
Just get copies of the song files and add them to your iTunes library. With the exception of any DRM-protected files (purchased before mid-2009 and never upgraded) they will play fine, even though they are technically associated with the original account.

Bought teen a laptop, created her own itunes acct, can I transfer her music from my computer to her laptop/acct?

I recently purchased my daughter a new laptop. She now has her own itunes account. Over the years she purchased songs, etc on my account and I want to transfer them to her laptop/ itunes acct and get them off mine,. Can this be done without using the home sharing?

You'll want to start by authorizing her computer with the iTunes account used to purchase the media on your computer.
In iTunes, click "Store", then select "Authorize This Computer".
Keep iTunes open on both computers for the rest of the process.
Open iTunes on her computer, on the left you should see your iTunes library under "Shared"
If you don't see it then go to preferences on your computer and make sure that "Share my library on my local network" is turned on. That option is in: Edit>Preferences>Sharing.
Now, on her computer, select your library and you'll be able to see a list of everything in your library. (You can click the little arrow next to your computer's library on her iTunes to sort by media type.) Select the media you want to copy to her computer and click "Import". Now just wait until it's done, then if you want to remove it from your computer just right-click on it, on your computer, and select "Delete".

The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The sync is one way - computer to iphone. The exception is itunes purchases: File>Transfer Purchases
Copy everything from your other library/computer, or your backup copy, to your new library/computer

I want to buy Apple TV for my grandchild so she can play videos and music from her Ipad on the family's big screen. Do I need anything else beside the Apple TV device. Also what is AirPlay? Is it an app, a service or a piece of hardware?

I want to buy an Apple TV for my grandchild so she can play content from her Ipad on her family's big screen TV. She has cable WiFi in her home does she need anything else beside the Apple TV. Also what is AirPlay. Is it an app, a service or a seperate hardware from the Apple TV?

Airplay is a wireless streaming protocol. It allows content to be pushed from the iPad through the Apple TV onto your connected HDTV.
If she wants to see the iPad displayed on the big screen and/or play games that involves mirroring. As long as it's an iPad 2 (or later) then you will be fine. More info on both has been referened below

I want to start my own business through Adobe.

Hi there,
I have spent most of last week and this weekend doing a load of research on the CC, BC and have previous knwoledge on the DPS all provided from Adobe.
I just have a couple questions:
How many sites can I host on any of these plans?
On the DPS, can I also upload apps to google for androids?
What are the best plan(s) I should go for?
Does the CC family support the DPS? Or would I need to buy both CC and DPS plans?
I have tried speaking to a sales consultant but know one ever got back to me - maybe it's cause I'm in South Africa?
I am wanting to start off pretty small and expand as the business grows. There will only be one designer, me, and another friend on the marketing/business side so it would kinda be like freelancing but I want to eventually start a business..
Any suggestions will help, and I apologise in advance for my naivety or any anger at this topic..

My old computer no longer works. I want to transfer my music from my Ipod to itunes on my laptop, but now mix it with my wife's music. How do I do that?

My old Gateway is dead. I have saved my 20 gigs of ipod music on an external hard drive.
On our Dell laptop, my wife has itunes music installed. I want to add my music and use itunes to add more,etc., but I want to keep it separate from her music.
First, how can I transfer my music from the external hard drive to itunes, without it affecting her itunes. Do I need to set up multiple itunes with separate names, or, as support mentioned, make two playlists.
If it's the playlist version, how do I make a playlist with my 20 gigs of ipod music? Thanks, Hup42

Hey Hup42,
Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, the best option may be to operate multiple user accounts on your Wife’s computer. The following article outlines this solution, along with another solution of having multiple iTunes libraries:
How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495
Create multiple user accounts
Do you share your computer with someone who has different tastes in music and media? You can create separate user accounts for each person who uses the computer. You can maintain separate, personalized iTunes libraries and customize each devices' sync settings accordingly.
Mac OS X users
Learn how to set up other user accounts.
- OS X Mountain Lion v10.8
- OS X Lion v10.7
- Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard
Windows users
Look in your computer's Help documentation to learn how to set up other user accounts. To find this information:
1. Click the Start Menu and click Help or Help and Support.
2. Enter "new user" in the Search field.
3. Press Return.
If you create multiple user accounts on one computer but want the same media to be available in iTunes for all users, you can share music between different accounts on a single computer.
Thanks,
Matt M.

My kids set up itune account on my computer and no one remembers the password. I want to start my own itunes account, but I would like to get some of the music off this account. Any suggestions?

my kids set up itune account on my computer years ago and no one remembers the password. They started new accounts on their macs. I want to start my own itunes account, but I would like to get some of the music off this account. Any suggestions?

The easiest way would probably be to recover the data of the old account and change it to match your current info, after that you can continue to use the account without any problems. To recover your account go to: Apple - My Apple ID
Alternatively if you want to start a new account do it and then contact iTunes support to see if the y can transfer your purchases (I know of cases on which they have done it)

My daughter has been using my iTunes account to buy music and apps. I now want to set up a separate iTunes account for her, with a different login. How can we transfer the music and apps she has already bought to her new iTunes account?

Hello, thank you for your prompt answer. I did have an idea that Home sharing might be the answer but could not quite figure out how to do it. I have enabled home sharing in my iTunes account, put in username and password, clicked on creat etc. But the homs sharing icon doew not appear in the left side of iTunes. So I got stuck. Any further ideas?

HT3798 my iPod was originally connect to an old HP. The HP has since died and now I own a Macbook pro. I want to transfer the music from my iPod (originally synced with the HP) to my Macbook Pro. Is this possible without losing the music on my iPod?

Your iPod is designed to sync with only one iTunes library at a time. It will recognize the iTunes library on the PC as a new library. If you sync the iPod with this new library, all content will be erased from the iPod and replaced with what is in the new library. So what you will want to do is copy everything from the iPod to your new iTunes library on your PC first.
See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
