Multiple iTunes accounts with a single ipod?

I just bought my daughter a new ipod Touch. Will she be able to download music into the ipod from both my itunes account and from her mom's seperate itunes account, or will her ipod only be able to be associated with a single itunes account? Thanks.

You can use multiple iTunes accounts on one iPod. Just note that you can only sync with one iTunes library/computer. However, yu can manage music among different computers. See:

Is it possible to set up multiple iTunes accounts on a single computer?

is it possible to set up multiple iTunes accounts on a single computer?

If you do it with a single user account, you will receive update notifications for purchase made on both IDs regardless of which one you're using at the time. That's slightly frustrating as you get the notification BUT you can't actually update! In any event, separate user accounts on the computer is the cleaner way to go.

Can you have multiple itunes accounts on a single computer? want to open a separate one for our daughter (but we will manage it).

I believe you're limited to syncing DRM'd items from 5 different accounts.

Managing multiple itunes accounts on a single computer

I have an iPod and an iPad that use a single iTunes account on a certain PC. I have a second iPod that I have setup on a second computer which also has its own separate iTunes account (because at the time I didn't understand you can manage multiple devices from a single account/computer). This second iPod has iPod apps I have purchased from my second iTunes account. I would like to change this and manage my second iPod from my main computer (so everything lives in one place). When I hooked the second iPod up to my main computer I picked the option to "transfer purchases to this computer". It acted like it was doing it, but I noticed nothing transferred. I unplugged the device and plugged it back in, and a dialogue box told me this iPod contained 33 applications that were NOT authorized to play on this computer and would not transfer them. It said I needed to authorize the computer to do that. My PC is already authorized with my main account and I don't want to mess that up. Can I authorize my computer for my second itunes account and have it authorized for both? Am I allowed to take apps I've purchased for the ipod that is on account 1 and install any of those apps on the ipod that is associated with account 2? I've purchased all these apps, I just did not understand from the get go that there was no need for me to setup 2 completely different itunes accounts. The second iPod I am going to give to my young daughter as a toy, but I absolutely don't want to mess up my iPad and first iPod as I use them for work on a daily basis. Any help would be appreciated.

+Can I authorize my computer for my second itunes account and have it authorized for both?+
Yes. Sign out of the itunes store under the first account, then _sign back in_ with 2nd.
+I just did not understand from the get go that there was no need for me to setup 2 completely different itunes accounts.+
Don't worry, lots of people made this same mistake. It will be kind of a hassle remembering to authorize both accounts in the future, but it's manageable. You know that license agreement that comes up after an itunes update? I think you'll have to go in under both accounts and agree to it from now on.

That's what I'm talking about.

Can you combine multiple itunes accounts into a single one?

I set up separate itunes accounts for my (2) sons (8 & 10) because one had an iPod and the other had an iTouch.
They just got an iPad for X-mas (that they'll share) ... I want to set up the iCloud and create a "joint" account.

Multiple iTunes Accounts With an iPod Touch

Hi,
Not sure if this is a iPod touch question or an iTunes question. So, I'm gonna ask it here.
I'd like to buy an app that's available in the Japanese iTunes store and not in the US iTunes store.
So, can I create a Japanese iTunes account and use it to buy an app for my iPod without having to start my iTunes library all over from scratch? I don't want to risk losing all my current US iTunes store content and iTunes library.
Will iTunes sync content from two different accounts onto one device (my iPod touch)?
Thanks!

If that content is in a single iTunes library, yes.

Multiple iTunes accounts with iPad2.

I have the following scenario: We have purchased several iPads for our employees and we are trying to find the best way to administer them. We would like to be abble to:
1. Users to use their home computer and personal iTunes account to purchase apps/music/books with their personal credit card;
2. Users to use a single company computer and one company iTunes account so that we can purchase apps/books that are company mandatory with the company credit card.
Is this possible and what is the correct way of setting this up.
Thank you,
p.s. Of course users have other personal apple products (iPhone, iPod, etc.) and administering those is not the issue here, but, should not affect the proposed setup.

so the VPP would be an option..that way the users could continue to use their personal iTunes accounts, and you could deploy the company paid apps to them via a link imbedded in an email sent to them...we also have users backup their iOS devices on home computers...that way we don't have to mess around with responsibility for iTunes music and photo libraries on work pc's..here is a link to the VPP if you haven't seen it yet...

Multiple iTunes accounts on a single iMac

To start off with it really irritates me that I have to ask this question on a forum because Apple's support documentation is scattered and hidden and APPLE would rather charge support fees as if they already dont have enough freakin money!
My question is very simple and striaght forward, My wife and I have a single IMAC, We both have iphones and ipads, we have seperate Apple ID's so our apps and itune purchases are seperate. All simple crap! I added a second user to our IMAC for her and setup her Apple ID and Itunes account on it. I then authorized our IMac for her Itunes account. Everything should have been fine, only when I went to down load all her songs in Itunes I got an error saying that this computer was associated with another apple Id and that if I choose to down load her library I wouldnt be able to download content for my account for 90 days.
All I freakin wanted to do is load her songs on the Ipod I got her for christmas! ***!

Using multiple iTunes accounts for a single iTouch

Hoping I can get some help for my unique situation.
So my little brother's 14th birthday is coming up and my girlfriend and I want to give him her 3rd gen iTouch (not sure if it's 32 or 64 gb) as a gift. It's in mint condition and we're going to load it with music that he likes to listen to. Currently, it's tied to my girlfriend's old iTunes account, which has a lot of apps and games that she paid for. However, there are also paid-for games and apps on my iPhone 4 that he likes to play with that we want to put on the iTouch as well. I'm sure you can see where this is going. Is there any way to have both mine and my girlfriend's iTunes accounts synced simultaneously to the iTouch so that we don't have to re-pay for music, games, and apps that we would otherwise have to re-purchase if the device was linked to only one account? After doing a quick Google search, it seems as though only one iTunes account can be linked to an iOS device at a time but my girlfriend swears that at one time, the iTouch was linked to both hers and a friend's iTunes account. Any help would be most appreciated!

you can put both yours and hers music on to the ipod

Multiple iTunes accounts with AppleTV

Just got our Apple TV. If my husband and I use separate iTunes accounts, can we use both accounts for things like music, movies, iCloud photos? I'm not setting up home sharing. Just want to be able to log in and out of our accounts. Is this possible?

Yes.
Set up both accounts at settings > iTunes Store and switch between them as and when required.

One credit cards, multiple ITunes accounts

Can I have multiple ITunes accounts with different email addresses and use one single credit card when purchasing items from each of the accounts?

Actually, you can't have more than 3 accounts tied to the same credit card in iTunes. And Apple support (online, chat, email, phone, store) is no help in figuring out what is going on. When you try to setup the 3rd account with the same credit card, iTunes says "Contact iTunes Support to complete this transaction" but does not provide any contact info. I've been trying to set up the 3rd of 9 accounts I need to setup for our corporate iPads for 2 days now. Support did some digging and after an hour on the phone, told me I could "have each user just set up their own iTunes account with their own credit card".
This is so remeniscent of steps another computer company stumbled over when they started to sell to Corporate America. Apple does not get the corporation. Product looks good but there is a lot of unfinished business when it comes to administering multiple devices. Support is friendly but not very able to solve the problem.

Multiple iTunes accounts - 1 iPod

Can anyone please tell me if it is possible to have music from multiple iTunes Music Store accounts with the one iPod? My wife and I share the iPod, but want to keep different balances from gift vouchers and such on separate music store accounts.
Are there any other considerations? ie will I need to authorise all my computers again for the new iTunes music store account?
