My daughter received an I phone for Christmas and we set it up using my iTunes account.  She just received an iPad and wants to set up her own iTunes account.  How do we do that without losing all of her content that she added to my iTunes account. I have home sharing on my account.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If she creates her own iTunes account she can't use any protected content purchased under another account. She can play unprotected content synced from an iTunes library on a computer, but she can only download content from the cloud that is purchased under her account.
It's a pain I know, but the longer you put off the move, the worse the situation will become.

  • I recently moved from XP to Win 7 and want to take my Acrobat 9 Pro along How do I do that

    The program was installed July 11, 2011 on my XP machine. I recently moved into a Win 7 pro and need my Acrobat 9 to come with me. No media exists here
    Acrobat Installation & Update Issues
    I take that back I do have the disks for 6 and 8 Standard here in the office.

    Hi thorvald,
    Could you please confirm whether you are using Acrobat 9 pro or standard.
    Firstly, you need to deactivate Acrobat from your old machine by choosing "Help > Deactivate"
    Then, you can install it on the new machine and activate it from the Help menu with the same serial number.
    If you are using Acrobat 9 pro, then you can download it from the below mentioned link:

    Hope the above information is helpful.

  • My daughter got an Ipod Touch for Christmas and I am having the worst trouble just setting it up.

    I downloaded Itunes but the Ipod is not showing up. I have reinstalled it, restarted my computer, and the Ipod. I cannot figure out why this Ipod is not showing up. I cant see in my computer or on Itunes. It shows on Windows Media Player but I cannot add music to it. Please help! I have music already I just needed to add it for my daughter. I have went through the diagnostics and it still has not helped me any.

    1. Itunes is up to date.
    2. I have checked the USB cable and it is ok.
    3. I verified the apple supported device is installed properly.
    4. I restarted both the Ipod and my computer.
    This is what I get with the 5, error code 10 device cannot start.

  • I want to create a new apple account and switch my iPod Touch over to it. How can i do this without erasing all of the data?

    I have an iPod Touch (4th generation) and found i would like to switch it over to a new apple account. Is there anyway for this to happen without deleting any data?

    Yes, just go to Settings>App and iTunes store and sign out of existing ID and sing into the other.
    The Apple ID is also used in:
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>iCloud
    - Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Note:
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • HT1212 how do i unlock it without loseing all of the contents

    My iPad has been disabled to where the screen says connect to itunes but I have to have my password to unlock my iPad and I don't want to lose any content. How do I do this?

    If you haven't backed up your iPad or if you have never synced with iTunes, there is no workaround. The only way to unlock it is to restore it and that means that everything will be erased from the iPad.
    You can download most of your paid content again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID that you bought it with originally.

  • If i had an iphone3 and want to download the music to my 5, how would i do that

    just curious if there is a way to download the music from my iphone 3 itunes to my 5 itunes?

    All of your music should be on your computer.  Just sync it to the new iphone.
    Nothing should ever be on your iphone only.

    I received an itunes giftcard for Christmas and I want to use it to purchase the Apple TV.  How do I do this and is it even possible?

  • My mom got the iPad mini for Christmas and she gave me her old iPad but she is still receiving all my messages on her mini. Is there a way to stop her from getting them?

    My mom got the iPad mini for Christmas and she gave me her old iPad but she is still receiving all my messages on her mini. Is there a way to stop her from getting them?

    If she is receiving your messages - then you must have somehow setup the iPad to use your iPhone number or your email address on her new iPad. How you did that is beyond me unless you set up her new Mini for her and used your Apple ID on it.
    On her iPad got to - Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at>uncheck your phone number or email address of that is what is being used for the contact number.

    Hi i received the nano 7th gen for Christmas and I only seem to get 5 hours of battery life. I use the Bluetooth and Nike app so I expect more drain on the battery.  But I got more time out of running with my iPhone. Does this sound normal? I thought I should get close to 30 hrs of just play time alone.
    ALso, my wife got me the Belkin armband to run with the nano but I sweat through the band resulting in the back of the iPod to get wet. Surely this is not good. Anyone have a recommendation for an armband that keeps moisture away from the pod?

    iPod Nano are small and they don't use Wi-Fi access so you get less power time on a Nano. As for iPhone, since you got apps, Wi-Fi + 3G access, and everything else, they give you more time so you can keep using. Nanos are ment to listen to music, listen to radio, view your photos, watch videos (without Wi-Fi) and since you got BlueTooth on the nano, it counts as wireless access so it drains your battery faster.

  • I have a new computer and want to sync my phone and all it's apps to my new computer. How do I do this without loosing all of my apps?

    I
    I have had a total meltdown of my system and have had to rebuild my computer because of a lightning strike which took out my main computer and my backup system therefore I do not have a way to restore all of my old files. When I rebuilt my computer I decided to go with Windows 7 rather than staying with Windows Vista when I attach my Apple iPhone to the new computer and tried to sync it, it tells me that it wants to wipe out everything on my phone. My iPhone was backed up to the cloud but I do not see way to restore it from the cloud and I do not want to lose all of my apps and data that are on my iPhone. I have gone to the Apple online store to see if I could restore the apps that I have purchased from their and have not been able to find anything that relates to reinstalling all the apps that I have purchased as well as my bookmarks and addresses as well as a lot of the data in documents to go and do not want to lose them as it is the only place that I have them left. How do I do this without losing all of my apps and data that is on my iPhone?
    Please help out of this nightmare and keep me loyal to iPhone.
    This has become an all day and night ordeal.

  • Able to get new phone for Christmas present if not Account Owner?

    Okay so I have a gifted from the trade-in program and I want to buy my dad the phone he has been wanting for Christmas. He is eligible for an upgrade, but he is the only account owner. So I am wondering if I will be able to purchase him the phone he wants for Christmas and not yet put it on our plan and than after Christmas he can go into the store and activate it himself and so on. But before I waste gas going to the store, I just want to know if I am able to do that?

    Even if i don't put it on the account yet... and i just buy it and he does whatever he has to do with it.
