Moving files from one itunes account to another

Hey there,
I was wondering if anyone can help me out. My mom got an ipad a couple of months ago and I just let her use my itunes account and she bought songs well now she got an iphone and I made her an account and I was wondering if there was a way to get the purchased content from my account to her account so everything will just be on hers and be done with it. Thanks so much!!!

No, store purchases are permananetly associated with the account they were purchased with (or gifted to). However the devices can hold "protected" content from up to five different accounts. Songs purchased within the last few years are unlikly to be protected so there should be no problem adding both the content bought with your account and the newer purchases she makes on her own.

  • Moving songs from one itunes account to another

    Hi,
    When my ex and I were together we had one iTunes account which we loaded all our cds on to.  We have now separated and I have created a new iTunes account linked to my iphone.  I still have access to the old account which my ipod nano is currently linked to.  How can I move my music from the old account to my new account?  I still have the cd's but I have just bought a ipad and have no cd drive to burn them.
    Would appreciate any help on this.
    Thanks
    Kate

    Anything that you download from the iTunes store is tied to the account that downloaded it, they can't be moved to another account.
    If it's music that was copied from CDs then they aren't linked to an iTunes account (unless you've subscribed to iTunes Match and uploaded them to it), if the only place that you have copies of them is on your iPod then you should be able to copy them back - there are some programs listed half-way down this page which should be able to do that : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

  • Transferring library,files from one itunes account to another

    I have two itunes accounts running under the same user. How do I transfer the library and other files from one account to the other?

    I have two itunes accounts running under the same user.
    ??? iTunes accounts don't "run".
    Do you mean you have two iTunes accounts that you purchased songs with?
    You can't transfer them. The account info you purchased them with is embedded into the song file.
    If you are talking about songs in iTunes, just add them to your iTunes.

  • Moving music from one iTunes account to another

    I have music that I bought using my dad's iTunes account but now I have my own and would like to move the music into my account, under my password. Is there a way to do this?

    Are you referring to an iTunes Store account? If so, it's not possible to transfer tracks from one iTunes Store account to another. You'll have to continue to use your dad's account ID and password to authorize any tracks purchased through that account.

  • HT1711 can u transfer music from one itunes account to another if belonging to the same household

    You can give the person a copy of the song files, which they can then add to their iTunes library.

  • Can I move/copy songs from one itunes account to another itunes account on the same iMac?

    Can I move/copy songs from one itunes account to another itunes account on the same iMac?

    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.

  • I want to transfer funds from one itunes account to another....How?

    How can I transfer funds from one itunes account to another?

    If they include a completely unspent gift card's balance, click here and ask the iTunes Store staff to put it back onto the card. Aside from this, it's not possible.

    If you haven't spent any of it, the iTunes Store staff can put the balance back onto the card, which can then be redeemed into another account.

  • Can I transfer purchases from one itunes account to another, if so how

    Can I transfer purchases from one itunes account to another, if so how

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
    Answering quickly, though, if you mean you want to transfer a purchase from one iTunes Store account to another, you cannot.
    Regards.

    Can I transfer purchases from one iTunes account to another? I bought some apps using my dad's account and now I have my own so can I transfer them to mine?

  • How do you switch from one iTunes account to another on your apple tv?

    How do you switch from one iTunes account to another on your apple tv?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    I assume you do mean a different account and not simply a different iTunes library. Unfortunately, in order to switch accounts, you would need to log out and log in to the second account.

  • Syncing apps from one itunes account to another.

    Hey guys, first forum post so go easy on me pls
    The other day I decided to download some apps from my mums itunes account since I didnt have any money to pay for them myself. When it came to syncing/copying the apps from her account, it decided to delete most, if not all the apps from my own account.
    I had a read around and have "authorised" both my laptop and her macbook, and the iphone registers this. However, I tried to copy some apps from my account this morning and it seems it wouldnt have been possible without deleting the ones I had copied from her account.
    Is there any easy way around this syncing problem? Or will I just have to keep buying things from my own itunes accout?
    Any feedback is appreciated

    It's not possible to transfer purchases from one iTunes account to another
    Not trying to doubt you or anything but you probably did something else with the iPod such as use 2 accounts simultaneously in which case you would have to log out and in each time you needed to update

  • Transferring apps from one itunes account to another

    I bought the original IPad from a family member, so it was set up with there ITunes account and all of the apps that are on it. I would like to transfer everything that is currently on the IPad over to my computer with my ITunes account, without having to reset the IPad and purchase all of the apps all over again. I need to manage my IPad through my computer and ITunes account, not the one it was originally set up under.
    I have managed to do this with an IPod, so I can imagine it would be possible with an IPad.
