Migrating iPad 1 from my iTunes account to somebody elses

I am going to buy an iPad 3rd Gen and I have an iPad 1st Gen. My wife an I, both have an iPhone 4S and we have 2 seperate Apple IDs.
I would like to give my iPad 1 to my wife and keep the iPad 3 for myself, but I would therefore like the iPad 1 to sync with my wife's iTunes account.
So... can I change the Apple ID of my iPad 1, and re-assign it to a different Apple ID so that my wife could sync her iPhone to the iPad?
Thanking you in advance
Kind regards
Charles

Absolutely. Your wife can sign into her own account on your old iPad in Settings>Store>Apple ID. She can sign into the App Store and in iTunes as well by going to the bottom of the screen in the featured tab - in either app - and tapping on your ID in the bottom left corner - sign out of your account - and sign in with hers.
Any content that you have purchased that still remains on the iPad can only be updated by using your Apple ID since purchased content is always tied to the ID with which it is purchased.
In the event that you want to wipe your iPad so that your wife can start all over again go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings or you can restore to factory settings within iTunes on your computer while the iPad is connected and with iTunes running. The Restore option is in the Summary pane of iTunes.

Can I transfer iPad apps from one iTunes account to another

Can I transfer iPad apps from one iTunes account to another?

No. Apps are associated with Apple ID with which they were purchased.

HT1848 How do I transfer the songs from my desktop to my iPad using the same iTunes account? I can only sync the other way. Thanks

DaisyDoodle,
The songs on your Shuffle should still be in your iTunes library. That means you should just be able to connect your Nano to the same iTunes library and sync it just as you would with your Shuffle. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, or iPhones you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account.
As for preparing the Shuffle for your husband, just restore it via iTunes and then let him sync it to his own iTunes library or if its the same iTunes library, let him configure it to sync only his content.
Here are instructions on how to restore the Shuffle if need be.

Is it possible to transfer music/videos from one itunes account to a separate one? I need to give my music and videos that I bought a grandchild to her for her ipad.

Is it possible to transfer music/videos from my itunes account to a grandchild (she will need her own account) I bought her music and videos and let her play with my ipod touch. Now she has an ipad.

No you cannot transfer purchases from one account to another account. Apple does not allow it and never has allowed it.
She can use you Apple ID on the device and switch between her ID and your ID, but that can cause problems at times and can become a bit of a pain.

De-authorise all, then authorise the one you still have.

My ipad and ipod were both stolen from my home during a robbery. how do I unauthorize both of these without having them in my possession. I did delete the ipad from my itunes account and have changed my passwords.

Apple (and no one else) can not assist (with serial number or iCloud) in finding a lost or stolen iPad.
Report to police along with serial number. Change all your passwords.

How do I delete IPad from an iTunes account

How do I delete iPad from an iTunes account

You don't have to delete the iPad from your iTunes account. What are you trying to do? Disassociate the device from your Apple ID?
If you want to remove the device form your Apple ID
iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
Removing an associated device or computer from an Apple ID
To remove a device or computer from your Apple ID:
Open iTunes.
Sign in to your Apple ID by choosing Store > Sign In from the iTunes menu.
Choose Store > View My Account from the iTunes menu.
From the Account Information screen, click Manage Devices.
Click the Remove button next to the device name you would like to unassociate.
Note: Removing a device from your Apple ID does not override the 90 day timer. The timer must complete 90 days from the day the device was associated before it can be associated to another Apple ID.

How do I transfer movies from my iTunes account on my computer to my ipad2

If the films are on your computer's iTunes then connect your iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of iTunes under 'Devices' - and you should then be able to use the Films/Movies tab on the right-hand side to select which of the films to sync to the Videos app on the iPad

How to transfer my iPad from my iTunes account to my wife on her iTunes account.

Running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5, iTunes 11.0.1. Want to give my wife my iPad2. Don't want to share apps or songs; already reset the iPad2 and removed the apps. We have separate iTunes accounts. However, when i go into my iTunes account and go to the Manage Account screen, there is no option to list or remove devices, which i thought was supposed to be there. How do i remove the iPad2 from my iTunes account and then register/authorize it under her iTunes account?

Go to settings, App Store on ipad and click on the account listed then sign out. You should then be able to sign in with hers.

Can I sync certain itmes from one itunes account and certain items from another itunes account on the same ipad?

I was wondering if an individual would be able to sync certain items from one itunes account and and items from a different itunes account to the same ipad?

You move the song files to /Users/Shared/ and then into iTunes from the other Mac OS X user account.
If you want to change the iTunes Store account associated with them, you need to redownload them from that account.

Yes there is. Those songs are not actually on your iPad. They are in iCloud ready for download if you choose to do so. If you want to remove them go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Show All>Music>Off. You can also do this in Settings>Music>Show All Music>Off.

Is there a restriction on how many simultaneous wireless iPads can watch movies from one iTunes account or AppleTV generation 2 or later?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I find it hard to believe that this information isn't clearly available somewhere, but it isn't and I don't think I've seen anyone here who is 100% sure. However, I believe you can have up to 10 associated devices, which include authorised computers (of which you can have up to 5), I suspect the Apple TV might become a temporary associated device while it's in use, but I'm not entirely sure myself.

I am a US resident but spend several months each year at my house in England. Is it possible for me to download UK iPad apps from the iTunes Store? Right now they seem to be restricted. Can I set up an alternate iTunes account using a UK credit card?

When you go to Starbucks, you'll need to first go to Settings on your iPad and choose Network. You'll see ATTWIFI as one of the available networks. When you click on that to select it, you should be immediately sent to AT&T's sign in page. You just need to check the box that says you agree to their terms and conditions and then hit the Connect button and you'll be online. One warning, however. If your Starbucks is anything like those in Manhattan, be prepared for really slow wifi. It can be a real pain waiting for pages to load sometimes.

TS1424 Why am I unable to rent movies from my iTunes account on my iPad?

Until recently renting or buying movies from my iTunes account was seamless. However, I've recently tried on several occasions to rent a movie but the app either crashes or my iTunes sign-in box never appears.

Your mom is signed in to her apple account probably. You cannot buy a movie on one account and move it to an ipad(different account) and play it. Cant be done, Copyright laws. Can only be accessed with the same account it was purchased with.
Havent tried it myself, But im 99% sure you cannot SHARE movies like that.
