More than just iTunes?

I listen to a lot of content other than iTunes (like archived BBC on Real Player). I'd to set up speakers in another room that will play this content as well as iTunes. Will this work with the AirPort Express? I only see iTunes mentioned in the specs. If not, do you have any suggestions on how to get this to work?

Thanks, that looks like it will be the solution

Hi, can anyone tell me if I can have more than one iTunes account on the same PC. I've just bought my wife an iPad2 and want to create a separate account for her. Can I do that on the same PC as mine?

I would advise that you not set up a second Apple ID. It's really not necessary - having two Apple IDs won't affect how iTunes works with your iPads - and will just complicate matters. Each iPad will be treated independently and can be set to sync only the items you want on that particular iPad. If you really want to keep the two iPads separate, set up different iTunes libraries and have only those items you want on the related iPad in that library, rather than a different Apple ID. If you plan not to use a computer and just download directly to the iPads, you can again choose what apps and content each iPad gets.
But answering your specific question, you can have content from up to five iTunes Store accounts on any one computer or iPad. To create a new iTunes Store account, you'll need a different email address, and from there you just create the account the same way you did the first one.
Regards.

How to make iTunes support more than just one harddrive

The title of this topic says it all: How do I make iTunes support more than just one harddrive? I cannot afford to buy a really huge drive just because iTunes doesn't support more than one.
There must be a way around this! Anyone?

I sure hope so. I run iTunes on an iBook G4 with limited space. I've got about 15gigs of music on an external harddrive. I only use the harddrive at home so I like to keep a handful of albums with me on the lappy. There should be some way to designate a primary folder on the laptop for imports, and a secondary (external or whatever) for the bulk of the library. Maybe some nifty way to do quick transfers between them within iTunes. Like a relocate function.
Say I want the new death cab for cutie album on the laptop this week, but next week I want to swap it out with something new that comes out. It would be nice to highlight an album and select "transfer to secondary" so that iTunes can move the files for you, keep them organized, and keep track of them.
That doesn't sound so difficult...

Multiple users on a single computer/synching device to more than one iTunes

Sorry if this has been asked before -- seems like it would be a common question. Our family has three iTunes users, and we each run off our own laptop, but there's a lot of overlap in the library and it's a huge waste of disk space. I'd like to achieve two things:
1. Have a single copy of a music file even if it's in all three libraries
2. Avoid having to go into three separate iTunes accounts to add new music to each one -- I just want to add it once and have it available to all three users
So can I do this: have a new iTunes account on the central desk computer, and have that iTunes hold all our music. Everybody maintains their own playlists on that one central iTunes. If we sync our iPhones/iPods to that computer, we just sync music, and we pick up our playlists. If we sync to our laptops, we sync podcasts and so on and don't sync music because there won't be music on those laptops. Will that work? Or can I not sync my iPhone to more than one iTunes?
Thanks for any help
Mike

Welcome to AD!
Here is an article on using multiple ipods. I suggest method 1 and steer clear of method 3.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495
For your point #1, sharing music on same PC between users, put it in a shared library & set permissions as directed here
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1203
For #2, itunes doesn't have the capability to monitor folders for new content. You'll need to get something like the free program 'itunes folder watch'.

Can I register more than one iTunes account on my Apple TV

Hi all, am I able to set up more than one iTunes account on my Apple TV? My flatmate and I have different files on our computers, so we'd like to have both of our stuff on Apple TV. Is there a way that we can either register both of us or just switch between the users?
Thanks

Your question states that you already have an tv, so I'll restrict the answer to the current model only. You also ask if you can both have stuff ON the tv, from which I then assume you are asking if you can sync from both computers to the tv which you can't.
Only one computer can provide the primary library and sync content to an tv, you can of course set the other computer up to provide a secondary library and stream content to the tv from it when it is on with itunes running.

My itunes library has organically grown from more than one itunes account but all now on a separate computer. If I upgrade to iTunes match will I have to pay for each account?

My itunes library has organically grown from more than one itunes account (all paid for by me) but all now on a separate computer. If I upgrade to iTunes match will I have to pay for each account or just once, for the computer?

No. Provided the computer that you use to upload / match your Songs is authorised to play all of the Songs all works well - once complete you can download Song files that will play on your libraries / other computers without each computer having to be authorised.

Can I keep more than just 5 entries in the podcast page?

I noticed that any post in iWeb's podcast page that gets moved to the archive is no longer indexed by iTunes or other aggregators. I was wondering if there is a way to keep more than just 5 entries in the podcast page so that they continue to remain pasrt of the RSS feed and stay indexed on the aggregator.
Thank you for your help!

In a similar problem, does subscribing to a podcast with only one or two current episodes listed, allow all the archived episodes to be accessed or visible in the iTunes Store as well?
I don't really see the purpose of the Archive if it isn't ultimately used for cataloguing available iTunes downloads, and I am thus forced to load all blog entries on the main page.
Or am I doing something horribly wrong?

Can I use more than one iTunes account on my apple TV

We just purchased our AppleTV and my wife wanted to use her Mac and her iTunes account to listen to music when I am at work. I setup the AppleTV using my iTunes account. Can I use more than one iTunes account on my apple TV?

You can have both libraries available to the Apple TV at the same time. As I say the key is understanding your iTunes account ID and your homesharing ID are different things (although there is nothing stopping you using one of your iTunes account ID's as the homesharing ID - I do that)
You need to make sure that the ID and password you use on both libraries and the Apple TV are all the same.
Also, no need to apologise, the wrong thing to do is not ask and suffer in silence.

More than 1 Itunes?

Is it possible for my computer to have more than 1 itunes because my sister has hers with a whole crap load of songs. I want my own so I can have it orginized and to have my songs.

You don't need two copies of iTunes, just two Windows login accounts. Log in to your account, start iTunes, and it will have a completely different library than she has in her account. Songs you add will show up in your library (and not in hers) and vice versa. You can connect an iPod to yours, she can have a different iPod with hers, etc. and the two accounts won't even know about each other.

More than one iTunes window open

I'm sure that I used to be able to have more than one iTunes window open at a time. I could have one showing the contents of my library and the other the contents of my iPod. This way by manually syncing, I could see what I'd already got on the iPod while browsing through the library to select new tunes to transfer. Has this feature been lost during a recent iTunes update (now running v8.1) or have I just forgotten how to do this - I'm sure it was easy to do?

It's OK - looks like you can't do this with a shuffle, I can do it with any of my other iPods plugged in but not the shuffle.

More than one iTunes account on one MacBook

Is it possible to have more than one iTunes account on the one MacBook, I have tried in the past and count separate the accounts.
If so can you please advice on the basic requirements.
Thank you in advance

The only way I know of, is each user will have to log out first, then the " new user " will have to log on with their
Apple ID.
You can have multiple iTune libraries that will allow each user to have their own songs and playlist.
This thread explains how to do that. You just have to hold down the " Option key " while iTunes is starting up.
hope this helps.

If I delete my iTunes and re-install will it tell me that I am logged on to more than one iTunes?

My iTunes is telling me that i am logged on to more than one iTunes with my ipod, so if i just delete iTunes on my computer will it still telll me that i am logged onto more than one iTunes account? And if i do delete it will all of my apps be deleted off my iPod? I don't really mind if all of my music/videos/etc. get deleted just not my apps.

Ideally would would have a backup of the library that you previously managed the device with. It's not so much the deleting of the apps, you can download those again, but the loss of any data associated with them.
You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

After soak test update, I get error messages repeatedly. The majority are "unfortunately, messaging has stopped", but you can replace messaging with "android os", or any other process, as it happens with more than just messaging. I have had numerous people call and ask why I didn't reply to their texts...and I look, but have not received any new texts. YES, I have restarted phone. I have cleared data as well as cache on all apps. I have downloaded the vzw messaging app, which seems silly, since it happens with several different processes and apps, but all to no avail. I am missing texts from my employer, from my family. This did happen, but rarely, before this "soak test". It is now Kitkat version 19.6.3.obake_verizon.en.US. THIS is when I started having problems...like 50 times a day kind of problems! I have seen hundreds of posts all over the internet over the past 3 days. Does no one know how to fix this??? Shouldn't there be a way to revert phone to a pre-update state? and no, hard reset did NOT work!!!! I have been with verizon for well over 15 years, but I have not upgraded my lines and will not in July either. This is ridiculous. It's not like my games aren't working, it is my messaging and "android os"...my lifeline at work!

kristinaf333,
Oh no, I am sorry to hear your messages are not working since the software update. I greatlly appreciate doing all that troubleshooting to try and get the messaging application back in business. I know how much I rely on my messages so I can understand the urgency to get this resolved. Have you had a resolution ticket opened since you started experiencing issues with your messages? Does this happen with all contacts or just some? Please provide additional information to ensure we get to the bottom of this for you.

It isn't possible to have more than one iTunes account on your phone.

iTunes Match is not sharable across Apple IDs. The best way to get the music on her iPad is to leave hers signed into her Apple ID on the iTunes Store and sync via USB.

More than just iTunes?
