Installing Itunes for a Limited Account Only?

Bought my girlfriend an Ipod.
Had to install Itunes on my PC for her so created her an limited account.
Unfortunately Itunes installs itself across all accounts and not just hers.
Is there anyway it can be installed just on her account.
This is becuase:
1. I don't have an Ipod so don't want the Itunes installed on my account!
2. My account is mainly for playing MMORGs and therefore I have to manually keep stoping the services Itune installs!
Thanks in advance,

  • Install itunes to a specific user only

    I want to install itunes for a specific user only. Currently both users are administrators however i want the itunes/quicktime installation to reflect on 1 user only i.e. the one i intall it from. How can i do this? Is there a command line parameter that would allow me to install it for 'current user' only? Please advise.

    Just change the installation path to somewhere in the other users account. The default is C:\Program Files\iTunes. You could change it to something like
    C:\Users\accountname\iTunes. or something like that for vista. and
    C:\Documents and Settings\accountname\iTunes. or something like that for XP.
    accountname is the name of the account that you are trying to install itunes for.

  • Unable to install iTunes for more than one user account on same PC

    My sister and I have different user accounts on our PC. I recently just got an iPod nano, while she has owned one for a few months. After I installed iTunes on my account, it erased iTunes on her account and deleted all of her iTunes playlists. Why is this happening and how can I install iTunes on both our accounts without deleting the other?

    Hello,
    I am having the exact same problem. I was hoping to find this problem before starting a new forum. My problem is a little bit different (Widows XP). I have my account with my Nano, then my wife has a shuffle. I want to find out how to get two libraries or programs for the same use, but for two completely different iPods. Can you help? Any information will greatly make my life easier. Please keep me in the loop. Thank you!

  • Can i use a 2nd iphone if i install itunes on another user account.when i tried to create a second library i messed up both phones, the second one now has all my contacts and when it sends txts it either says its my other phone or email address

    can i use a 2nd iphone if i install itunes on another user account.when i tried to create a second library i messed up both phones, the second one now has all my contacts and when it sends txts it either says its my other phone or email address. i can cope with the first phone and getting it back on itunes but dont want to syn the 2nd phone until i know it is independant of the other one. Does it matter that both phones use the same itunes store account?

    Deleting the account on your phone only removes if from your phone.  The account and it's data remain intact and doing so will not effect your daughter's phone.
    To do this, first go to Settings>iCloud on your phone and turn any synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off, and when prompted, choose to keep the data on the phone.  When finished, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Then set up a new iCloud account with a different Apple ID and turn any data you want to sync with iCloud (contact, calendars, etc.) back to On.  This will upload your data to your new iCloud account.

  • Can I install iTunes in separate user accounts on Windows Vista 64-bit?

    Hi,
    My wife and I use different user accounts on Windows Vista 64-bit. Before I go and mess things up on my computer, I wanted ask some questions:
    1) Has anyone has successfully installed iTunes to multiple user account?
    2) If so, has anyone successfully shared the same music root directory for 2 different iTune instances.
    I'm thinking with iTunes very tight integration with the music files (for indexing/searching, etc), that it would be bad to have add/change/delete on the same music root from 2 independent installations.
    Experience OR opinions welcome!

    ) Has anyone has successfully installed iTunes to multiple user account?
    You don't install the iTunes application more than once. Each user account in Windows will have its own iTunes library.
    If so, has anyone successfully shared the same music root directory for 2 different iTune instances.
    Many people have done so. This should help:
    iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
    Note that iTunes has no folder-watching capability, so if you add a track in one user account, the other user will have to add that new item manually, either by using the Add To Library command or dragging the item into the iTunes window. There are a couple of potential solutions from other developers, though:

  • Installing ITunes for 4th time with same IPod  !!

    Because I've had to have manual factory-default restarts performed on two different computers, I'm about to have to re-install ITunes for the 4th time. But, I'm still using the same IPod...I believe I've read that the max about of Itunes installs you can have for one Ipod is 3.
    1. Is that info correct?
    2. Does that pertain to my situation?
    3. Is there some type of work-around that I could do while I still have this 3rd version installed on my computer?
    PLEASE HELP!

    i had read it on itunes somewhere, but i just looked it up on the apple site...this is what i found:
    +Home Sharing.+
    +Now entertainment runs in the family. With Home Sharing, you can share music, movies, TV shows, and more among computers in your home. Browse iTunes libraries on up to five authorized computers on your home network and import whatever you like. You can also automatically import new purchases made on any of the computers.+
    so it seems it's 5 computers and not 3 and still doesn't say too much info about it. thing is, in my case, even though this will be the 4th install it's only been 2 computers.

    This should get your itunes store connection working.
    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

    Hello jgrn76,
    It sounds like you are getting an error stating that the iTunes installer cannot be run on your computer. I would try downloading the 64 bit version of iTunes from here:
    iTunes 11.1.3 for Windows (64-bit)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1615
    If issues persist when trying to install it, I would try running through the steps in the article named:
    Issues installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1926
    Otherwise, would you mind elaborating a bit on what the error message says, word for word?
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling

  • Installing itunes for windows 8

    Having trouble installing iTunes for a new sony Vaio with Windows 8. The download gets to 97% and no further. Can anyone help me with this as I have no clue how to fix this issue.

    That version is quite old now, though its fine if you don't have a device that requires a newer version for syncing or want to use the latest features. Should you want to bring things up to date howver, and have problems updating, then for general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I can't install itunes for windows get error message 5

    i can't install itunes for windows get error message 5

    I've been having the same issues for the past year and a half. I've spent 6-8months trying to figure it out. Went to various Itunes stores with pictures on my Iphone per each step so I could relay all information that I'd come across and the personnel were less than helpful, after conversations that would sometimes last an hour between myself, employees and managers they always came back to "simply uninstall then reinstall" when I told them for the thousanth time that I've done that multiple times and my errors are happening while trying to reinstall it they act stumped and say "well then I'm not sure, I'll give you a call if I figure it out" and disappear. I've been very disatisfied at the lack of support from Apple and if Android to piece together a reletively reliable phone I'd switch to them in a heartbeat. I'll follow this question incase someone can answer this, but I don't have much faith.
    BTW, wifey has Windows 7 running on the laptop and my phone syncs just fine to that and no trouble with itunes, just mine (desktop).

    It has the error range of 3000's which states
    Errors 3000-3999 (3002, 3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the gs.apple.com server on ports 80 or 443. This may be because out-of-date or incorrectly configured security or firewall software is interfering, an old version of iTunes is installed, an entry in your hosts file redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see error 1004 above), or because of your Internet proxy settings. If you are using a proxy, try without using one or with a known-good network. If that does not resolve the issue, follow iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues. Error 3014 may indicate that you need to free up more disk space on the computer before trying to restore again. Error 3194 most likely indicates you do not have the latest version of iTunes installed Update to the latest version of iTunes.
