ITunes Account Won't Go Away

I gave my old Windows XP laptop to my son. I had an iTunes account on the laptop. I deauthorized the laptop and then uninstalled ITunes. My son reinstalled iTunes on that laptop so he could sync with his account and my music continues to appear in iTunes on that laptop. How can he start with a blank iTunes?

Did you copy the /Music/iTunes/ folder to your computer?
This is your entire library.
If you have copied it (or if you don't care), quit iTunes.
Delete /Music/iTunes/ folder.
Launch iTunes to create a new, empty library.

    I keep on trying to log into my itunes account and it keeps telling me to activate it and when I try to tell it to send me a new activation e-mail it tells me to check that my time and date is correct and I have checked that and they are both correct. It also tells me to make sure that I have alowed cookies and I have made sure that happens but still every time I login it tells me to activate my account. just to let you know the activation link that apple has sent me it sends me to this link ---> http://www.apple.com/itunes/affiliates/download/

  • My iTunes account won't let me change my credit card from visa to MasterCard.

    My iTunes won't let me change my credit card type.. Please help me.

    Try it this way on your computer.
    Launch iTunes.
    From the menu at the top go to Store>View my account
    Enter your password when prompted
    Under Apple ID summary - Payment type - click on Edit next to the current information
    Select the card that you want to use and enter the card number and the security code
    Make sure that the billing address is correct - it must be the same address that is printed on the CC statement.
    Click on Done when you are finished.
    See if that works for you.

  • One iTunes account won't share

    Have a weird one here.
    I have an iMac with two user accounts: one for me, one for my wife. We each have our own iTunes collection. They're both using the same Apple ID. Both iTunes have Home Sharing turned on. I can see my wife's library under SHARED in my iTunes, and she can see my library under SHARED in her iTunes.
    As of last week, any time I wanted to watch a movie on my iPad, I would click the Shared tab and I would see an icon for my library and one for my wife's library. But today, all I see is my library. No matter what iDevice I try, (we have two iPads and an iPod touch) none of them can see my wife's shared library. But again, I can still see and access her shared library in iTunes when I'm logged into my account on my iMac.
    I've tried turning on and off her shared library preferences, logging out/in, and rebooting. Nothing helped.
    How can I get our iPads/iPod touch to see her shared library again?

  • Account won't go away

    Hello.
    I've posted here before to no avail, so I'm trying again. Basically, I've ended up with 3 Skype accounts and I can't seem to delete them. 2 are showing as Facebook accounts, one as an Outlook one, which I want to keep.
    I had a Skype-via-Facebook account last year, which I deleted following the FAQ guide so PLEASE do not link that to me. But when I searched my name, the account is still showing. I tried to log back in through Facebook to attempt to delete it again, but Skype simply made ANOTHER seperate account with the same Facebook. I deleted that following the FAQ and now THAT is still showing, and I can access neither as they are "deleted". But still showing in the search. So now I have two "Facebook" Skype accounts I don't want spawned from one Facebook account, and one Outlook Skype account I want to keep, but all are showing as account under my Oulook email when I ask for password recovery, but not on my account settings page. It's all a bit frustrating.
    I tried contacting support to remove them from the directory, but it just linked me here and wouldn't offer me a means to email support or anything. 
    Any advice?

  • Download iTunes 10 won't go away

    Someone please help! I cannot get this message to go away on my iTunes. I am not able to even access the iTunes store because of the message "Download iTunes 10 Now"

    Are there any options like OK, Cancel, Install, Remind Me Later?
    Why not simply install the latest version of iTunes?
    You can always just kill iTunes using Task Manager and then restart it.

  • My iPod's screen says "Connect to iTunes" and when I connect it to iTunes it's telling me to restore, but I don't want to restore/lose everything on it. The "Connect to iTunes" message won't go away.

    When I plugged my iPod into my macbook, a window for an iPod Touch software update popped up, so I clicked update, then it said that my iPod was over capacity or something similar to that, so basically I didn't have enough room for the update, which I thought was fine. So then once I unplugged my iPod, I was unable to use it. The screen was telling me to connect to iTunes (how it does when you first purchase an iPod, and turn it on for the first time.) So, I then connected it to iTunes and it told me I had to restore my iPod, it gave me no option other than to click "restore" But I don't want to lose everything that's on my iPod...but now I can't use it because the screen is still telling me to connect to itunes. How do I get out of restoring it?

    If you have a graphic of iTunes and a cable displayed on your iDevice then it is in Recovery mode.
    Check this to try an "exit"

  • The redeem section on my iTunes account won't load, but everything else will. Help?

    Like it says, I can load everything in iTunes but the redeem section. It is quite frustrating. Can anyone help?

    In iTunes on your computer, go to Store > Authorize This Computer from iTunes' menu.  Have your dad (or you, if you know it) enter his Apple ID and password.  Then sync again.

  • One iTunes account - 1 MacPro, 1 iPad, 1 iPhone, 2 iTouch, 1 iPod

    We have multiple devices on one iTunes account.  Is there away to sync Apps, Music - but have separate Contacts and Calendars?
    Karen

    When you sync with iTunes, you can select the exact content that you want on each device, for as many devices as you own.
    Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes.
    Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
    Click on the any of the various tabs in iTunes on the right. In this instance - select the Apps tab.
    Click on all of the Apps that you want to sync in the apps list
    Click on the Sync Apps heading
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
    Use the same procedure for all of the content in each of the tabs in iTunes.
    If you have different address books on the Mac, then you should also be able to select your address book contacts in the Info Tab of iTunes under "Sync contacts with" - but if you share the Mac Address book - there is no way to pick and choose your contacts only.
    The same would apply to the calendar. You can have different calendars and sync your own calendar to your own device.
