Is It legal to use two different iTunes accounts on one iPod touch?

(For example: A friend uses his own account for his own purchases and my account for the apps that I have already bought. --> Legal?)

Clarification: the "other person" is my nephew. So it is a person from my family.

  • Can I use 2 different iTunes accounts on one iPod touch?

    It is my daughters iPod that is linked to my iTunes account for purchases. I want her to use her own email (or iTunes account) for FaceTime and Messaging. We had this system working at one time, but now her FaceTime and Messaging are linked to my iTunes account.

    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    and Settings>iCloud if you want her to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.
    If you want to use here new ID for purchases note:
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
    Also note the 90 day time period specified here. It concerns some iCloud services

    1. Give her a separate user account on your computer. If you have a backup copy of the library, you can restore it.
    2. If you encounter a 90-day waiting period, click here and ask the iTunes Store staff if they'll remove it.

  • Can I use two different iTunes accounts for one iPhone?

    I have a UK iTunes account but am currently living in Qatar and for banking reasons wish to make purchases using a Qatar credit card only.  For some idiotic reason Apple will not allow me to do this.  If I have to open a new account to use my Qatar credit card can I sync music purchased to my iPhone without it deleting my music from my UK iTunes account when I sync?  I've no faith at all in iTunes and don't know why they always seem to make it difficult to just spend my money with them.
    Any help gratefully received.
    Many thanks

    Im pretty sure you can have more than one itunes account on your iPhone, might have to sign out of one in order to use the other(for downloading app or music probably). Although if you only mean to transfer your purchases from one account to another then I wouldn't have an answer, but most likely you can sync what you have on you're pc to you're iPhone since it has already synced with that computer previously.
    Hope this somehow helps

  • Can I use two different iTunes accounts on one computer without using Family sharing

    So my wife made the mistake of logging into her iTunes account on my computer to purchase some music and she also (without knowing what she was doing) turned on family sharing at some point.
    This is irritating for multiple reasons:
    Now I have hundreds of artists added to my iTunes match, all of who I care nothing about and don't want the clutter in my artist list, but I can't figure out how to permanently delete them off of my account. Also, now if I login to my account on iTunes I can't play any of my music for 90 days.
    Is there ANY way for me to re-organize my music, delete her junk, and get myself back to where I can play my purchased music on my iTunes account? Any time I try to organize or delete her music it shows back up next time I open it.
    I almost feel like I need to download all of my music off of the cloud, delete my iTunes account, and then open another one AFTER organizing my music while offline and then enable match again. Everything is so cluttered and frustrating. Looking for some advice.

    1. Give her a separate user account on your computer. If you have a backup copy of the library, you can restore it.

  • Can you use two different iTunes accounts in Apple TV

    My wife and I have our own iTunes accounts which we use on our separate iPhones, but on the same Macbook. Can we use these separate accounts on Apple TV. Not at the same time of course.
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    How do you run your two separate accounts.
    If they are part of the same library then you can access content from both iTunes accounts at the same time.
    If they are different libraries in the same user account and you switch them then you can access content from whichever library is active at the time.
    If you have two user accounts you can access both libraries at the same time providing both user accounts are running and iTunes is open in each (this option is mac only)

  • How do you use two seperate iTunes accounts on one computer?

    My wife and I have seperate iTunes accounts and content. We both have an iPod and iPhone. We purchased a new Macbook Pro because our other computers were fried. How do we both use the same computer to access our own iTunes accounts and sync our own iPhone and iPod to it to update our respective toys? I have already transferred all my content to the new laptop and am able to sync my iPhone and iPod. Now I just need to figure out how to get my wife's content on this new laptop so she can sync her iPhone and iPod. Does anyone know how to do this? I assume this is a common request.

    one option would be to create a separate user account for your wife. click here to learn "how to share music between different accounts on a single computer"
    another option would be to authorize iTunes to use/play content purchased with both your iTunes accounts.that's basically very easy. all you have to do is +log out+ of one account (click on the account name in the Store window and select +sign out+ from the pop-up dialog) and into the other, and then they will both be authorized. (be sure to just *log out*, not de-authorize ).

  • Can two different itunes accounts share one purchased icloud backup storage?

    My husband and I each have an iTunes account, I purchased 25GB of memory for my iPad and iPhone iCloud backup for the year and am only using about 5 of that.  He is out of free iCloud memory for his iPad and iPhone and I would like him to be able to take advantage of what I've purchased.  Is that possible, if so how?

    The only way for him to share your iCloud account storage is for him to share you iCloud account.  However, if he does, any data he syncs with the account will be merged with yours and will appear on all your devices.  Also, you would share the same photo stream and iCloud email account.

  • How can i transfer all my downloads from my ipod to my ipad2 if i used a different itunes account for my ipod

    i am trying to find a way to transfer my Ipod music and pictures to my Ipad2. My Ipod was synced on a different computer and itunes account then my I pad2. How would i save everything without syncing it and losing everything i have?

    If the music isn't purchased then you should be fine. Here is an application that will let you transfer the pictures from the iPod into iTunes on the laptop. This has been highly recommended here on this discussion site. There is a demo version that you can download to your laptop to see how you like it.

  • Is there any way to have 2 different itunes accounts on one computer?

    I am trying to find out if you can have two different itunes accounts on one computer.  My boyfriend and I both have the iphone 4 but we share a computer.  Is it  possible to have two accounts on one laptop? And if so, how do i do it?

    Hi, Angela,  Take a look here:
    How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer.
    That should help. If you are referring to iTunes Store accounts, yes, you can have up to five iTunes Store accounts on a single system.

  • Can I use the same music file for two accounts to be able to set up two different iTunes accounts?

    I would like to set up two different Itunes accounts on my mac.  I would like to have different accounts for my wife and I so that our devices have different accounts/contacts/email and stuff but we would like to use the same music library.  Can I set the different itunes to go to the same file to see music?  Or could I copy the music file and give the copy to the second itunes account?  I could set it up and authorize the music like for another user?  Is any of this possible?

    Hello 19firedude
    Try moving the entire iTunes Media folder to the Shared folder on your Mac and then in iTunes preferences, change the location of that folder to line it up. Then all you have to do in another user is follow the second set of steps to get that shared properly. Check out the article below for more detailed instructions.

  • How can I use music from two different iTunes accounts?

    how can I use music from two different iTunes accounts?

    If you mean iTunes Store accounts, there's really nothing for you to do. Just add the tracks to the iTunes library and play them. Music purchased prior to late-2009 will been to be authorized, though. Pull down Store > Authorize... and type the credentials of the Apple ID used to buy the tracks.
    If you mean something else, please describe in more detail.
