Identifying songs purchased by different itunes accounts

I have a NAS which has a number of songs on it that were purchased by me, my daughter, and my son under different itunes ID's. I would like to purify the music so that I can create a file with just my music in it. Is there a way to Identify which songs were purchased by which ID?

Hello Hillsinki,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you are wanting to simply transfer music in one iTunes Library to another computer's iTunes Library, just follow the "Home Sharing" directions found in the article below.

How do i bring my songs to a different itunes account in my name from my fathers itunes library?

i have bought all my songs on my dads itunes since i was a kid and have other 600. now that im going to college i am getting my own laptop and own itunes account. how do i transfer all my songs to my new itunes account?

Tim,
Unfortunately, any content purchased from the iTunes Store is permanently associated with the account from which it was purchased, and Apple does not provide any way to change it. I suppose you could try a special request to iTunes Customer Service; no harm in asking.
If what you are talking about is only songs, just make copies and add them to your own iTunes library on your own new laptop. Except for older (purchased before mid 2009) DRM-encumbered tracks, they will play fine.

Can I download songs from a different itunes account onto my ipod?

Can I download songs from a different ipod account onto my ipod without affecting anything?

Different account or different computer? It is two completely seperate things.
While it is possible to have media on the device from multiple accounts it is not possible to sync with multiple computers.

You have replied to a 3 year old post.
If you have a question, post your own question.
Just change the email address associated with your current account

How do you update apps that where purchased using different iTunes accounts? I get a cannot connect to iTunes message and it won't accept the password even after you change it.

Both my iPad and iPhone have the same problem. I have purchased apps with three different accounts. I understand I will need to use the original acct to do the update but every time it asks for the password I put it in and get a message that I cannot connect to iTunes store. I have even had the password reset and it still will not connect on the upgrade. But I can sign in with that account and purchase new apps i am loading a free one now just to make sure. So what is that about? Please do not tell me I have to also use the original password! We have reset them so many times that there is no way to remember the original one used at time of purchase a year and 1/2 ago. Please help. I have also upgraded to the iCloud thinking this would solve the problem but it still exists.

I use only one Apple ID and only one ID. I did have to change the password at one point but I had no issues at all with updating apps after I changed the password.
If you can download new apps with the ID that you changed the password for, I would think that you will be able to update apps associated with that ID as well.
Did you try restarting the iPad after signing out of the one account and then sign in to the other account/accounts?

How do i stop my different itunes accounts from getting the sharing the same songs

My mum and i both have ipods and different itunes accounts, but every time she buys a song in her account i will log into my acount to find that it is in my libray aswell, so when i plug my ipod in it wants to download hthat new song onto my ipod. Is there anyway to completely disconnect the accounts from each other?
PS we both own ipod nano 5th gen (the ones with the video cameras) and we have the newest version of itunes on our computer that we share.
Thnx

I appreciate your quick response and fast feedback.
Sorry, I neglected to tell you I build the webhelp using
robohelp for word. I have tried both the options on the dialog box
to jump to display in winhelp or display in browser, but neither
work. I update the webhelp at least twice a week, so tweaking the
html output page is not an option. Another option I tried was to
add the link directly into the toc as a new page - same result
(also tried both display in winhelp or in browser). As soon as I
hit the site, my help system is replaced by the suncountry.com
site.
For the aa.com site, the first page of aa.com displays in the
right frame of webhelp. After that any link I choose in the toc
displays in a new browser window. I have found that if I use the
back button on the original browser window so I am off the aa.com
site, then click refresh, my pages appear correctly in the right
frame. This is not user friendly.
Any other ideas?

I called the help number and the lady said she would have to charge me $29 to do so, but that there are other ways that are free that someone may be able to help me with.

Hi Kevin,
Have you authorized the Computer to your Apple ID?
If not, sign on to iTunes.
Then got to the Store menu option at the top of the screen (CTL+B if it is not showing), and click on it to display the dropdown, and select Authorize this computer.
If that doesn't work, then sign on your Dad's iTunes ID and repeat the Authorization process.
Cheers,

Transfer purchased app to different iTunes account?

Is it possible to transfer an app I bought in the iTunes app store to a different iTunes account?
(same computer, same iPhone)
In more detail, what happened was the following:
Usually, I logged in at the app store using my apple ID '[email protected]'.
A few weeks ago, I logged in using just 'zzz', and since that worked I did not think about it any further, assuming that to iTunes the two IDs are the same.
Then, I bought a few apps under the login 'zzz'.
But apparently, 'zzz' and '[email protected]' are NOT the same to iTunes!
(I think, that is a bug.)
How do I know? Because when I am logged in as 'zzz', iTunes shows in the sidebar that 8 apps have got updates, but when I click on "Check for Updates" I get nothing.
When I log out and then log in again as '[email protected]', lo and behold, I see all the updates when I click on "Check for Updates"!
You can also see, which account is attached to which app in the Info (cmd-I) of each app.
The problem now is that I have to switch accounts all the time, in order to get the updates, which is a nuisance.
So I would like to tell iTunes, that the apps I bought under 'zzz' should really belong to '[email protected]'.
Does anyone have an idea, how to do that?
All suggestions and pointers will be highly appreciated!
Best regards,
Gabriel.
PS:
I already tried to delete one app, and then "buy" it again under the other account.
But I think, I really have to pay again, because when I do this under the same account, iTunes tells me that I have bought the app already and lets me download it again for free.

I don't think you can switch an app, but try emailing iTunes store support:

First-time user of IPod Shuffle, my husand has an IPod Touch and has hundreds of songs already on his ITunes account. If Is it possible to have two ITunes accounts so his music is not automatically loaded onto my new Shuffle?

Just bought an IPod Shuffle; my husband has an IPod Touch and has hundreds of songs on his ITunes account. Is it possible to have two different accounts on the same computer to prevent his music from being loaded onto my Shuffle?

When you say "iTunes account," I think you mean iTunes library. An iTunes "account" is what you use to sign in to the iTunes Store (your Apple ID) and purchase songs (and other media). The iTunes library is what you have on your computer, with your songs and playlists. That is what you use for syncing iPods.
You can have a separate iTunes library. If you create a new user account on your computer (using Windows) and log in to that user account, iTunes will create a new iTunes library for that account. In fact, Windows will keep ALL of your documents separate, as if you are using a separate computer. That is probably the best way to keep your songs in a different iTunes library.
You can also create a separate iTunes library in the same Windows user account, if you use this procedure to switch between iTunes libraries
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1589
Also, you can use the same iTunes library, and decide what songs you want put on the shuffle. iTunes does not automatically put songs on the shuffle, unless you tell it to do so. This document explains how to load content on shuffles
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1719
NOTE: If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar. When connected, your shuffle appears in the sidebar, under DEVICES.
FYI - There is a link to the shuffle user manual on this support web page for the shuffle

One App Two iPhones Different iTunes Accounts

I currently have an iPhone 5 and I will be upgrading to an iPhone 6. I'm going give the iPhone 5 to my brother. I purchased a TomTom Navigation App and I want the App to be available on both phones but managed through different iTunes accounts. How should I go about doing this, if possible?
If it isn't possible to do this because the App is linked to my iTunes account, can I, instead, manage my iTunes account on multiple computers? Or is it that one computer can handle multiple devices?
I read the following two forums but they are not exactly the same questions as mine.
One APP to Multiple iPods?
Can you use apps from one computer/iTunes accounts on multiple iPhones?

Suppose I authorize another computer to use my current iPhone 5 and sync apps to that computer. Then I get my iPhone 6 and sync my apps to this new phone. Then I change the apple ID on one of the two computers. Would leave the installed apps on both devices? I don't have the new iPhone yet as I'm waiting to get an unlocked GSM version directly from Apple so I can't try this right away.

How can I use different iTunes accounts on one iPad?

How can I use different iTunes accounts on one iPad?

You can't, well not easily anyway. The iPad is not meant as a multi account device.
You can Sign Out of your iTunes account in Settings->iTunes and App Stores->Apple ID->Sign Out
However if you sign in with another ID and then download past purchases with it you will lock out the previous ID for 90 days. Which means it will not be able to be used on the iPad for 90 days.

I have 2 different itunes accounts and want to combine them. How do I do that without loosing prior purchases on either account?

Open the Mac App Store and try purchasing Mountain Lion 10.8. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU with at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
