My husband and I share an itunes account and would like to share SOME music with our kid as well but NOT all, can we do that on the same account?

Or do we have to set up a seperate account for her?  I would like to be able to share 'certain' songs with her but restrict others without having to 'check' and 'uncheck' songs individually every time we try to synch.  Is there a way to do this or not?  Also, FYI she has not synched to our library at ALL just yet since I am trying to figure out a way for this to work easily, and for her to be able to purchase songs with her gift card....but my husband and I do not want those songs to synch to our ipod.  Only the songs that we are going to purchase.  Does that make sense??:)
THANKS!!

Okay, so I just got around to 'trying' to create and Apple ID for my daughter for her ipod as suggested above BUT I accidentally used her b-day and of course she is not old enough!!!  So then I got off the internet etc and tried to create an apple ID for her using my b-day and it still would NOT let me, saying that I do not meet the minimum age reqirements!:(  I am SO frusterated right now...it is not like I was going to let her have any control over what she purchases anyways, seeing as how she is 7yr. and we are generally strict about what she listens to.  Is there any way that I can do this for her?
Thanks!

  • 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.

    Go to the iTunes Store and select "Purchased" from the Quick Links side bar on the right. Go through all the tabs to download again for free

  • If I disassociate a device from my iTunes account, can I reassociate it to the same account without having to wait 90 days?

    I just need to know ASAP, can't explain why now.

    You can re-associate the device to the same account. The 90 days is if it is already associated with an account e.g. if you are already in a 90 days countdown with that account then you won't be be able to dis-associate (and therefore be able to re-associate) the device from that account until the 90 days are up

  • I have an Ipod4, I want an Ipad2 with 3G, do I need a new ATT contract for the IPAd, or can they both work on the same account

    I want to buy an Ipad2, but I do not want to open a new account with ATT.  Can I use the same account for the IPhone and the IPAD, will mails show on both?,

    If you get/use WiFi only you can get on the web, get mail,text,and use icloud without a new account  with ATT; but when out of Wifi coverage you would need an upgraded (ie extra $ ) data account with your phone  (ATT in your case) provider.

  • Firefox is failing to display many (but not all) images on websites that I visit, some images are shown and some are not even if they are in the same format.

    I recently changed my ISP because I was having connectivity issues. In particular my router would shut down sporadically. As part of my attempt to clear issues I ran some spyware software which I've been told I could trust. Since then I have a problem viewing many websites as many (but not all) of the images are missing, even on websites that I know very well, including my own. What is very strange is that on one site every page has a jpg image under the navigation bar and all of these jpg's appear except one which doesn't appear even when I reload images. This problem also makes security sensitive sites like my bank site look very amateur which frightens me. The problem does not occur on other web browsers.

    Which ''spyware software'' software did you run?
    Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Windows Accessibility settings.

  • ITunes account disabled, would love to buy some music but can't

    My account was hacked a few months ago...fortunately I didn't have a card attached to my account, but I did have iTunes gift card credits. The hacker used all my credits and I reported it to Apple. They sent me an email saying JUST THIS ONE TIME they would return my credits and I needed to protect my account better. Okay? Anyway, I haven't bought anything since then but I tried to today and my account is disabled and must be enabled by a customer support person. Really funny since trying to find an email to contact Apple customer support is like trying to find a needle in a haystack. What's the best way to deal with this? I'm about ready to give up iTunes for good and just use Amazon. Cheaper half the time anyway.

    Yes, I've visited that page. That's how I got here. There's nothing on that page that describes my problem and there's no indication of how to get in touch with customer support! This is so frustrating.

  • Can 2 iPhones be on the same account

    I have a personal and a work iPhone. Both are iPhone 4s from different carriers, can I use both of the phones on the same iTunes account without creating another one.

    On a technical stand point, you can have your apple ID many iOS devices. That includes for itunes, app store, email, iCloud.
    It owuld make sens to check the App Store & iTunes Store TOS to make sure there nothing agians it. (because I assume the work phone is owned by your work)
    I would also  suggest checking with your IT department to see how that fits into your works IT policies. Also, just some thing to consider, do you need to worry about none technical issues.
    The other thing, is if you do use one ID. you might want to be careful about what apps/music you purchase. Because that info could show up on your work phone.

  • How many Apple devices can connect to one account? If I get 2 iPads for my home can they get apps under the same account or different accounts?

    I am wanting to purchase an iPad for myself and kids but I am wondering if they need to be setup under a different Apple account or just one. What about my iPhone that is under that account? So how many devices can be linked to an account before it is maxed out?

    I'm not sure what the total limit is (or if there is one), but two iPads and one iPhone is no problem - you only need one account and you can have the same apps on all three devices if you want without any issues (I have an iPad, iPhone and iPod without problems). There was a thread a few weeks ago about a newspaper app (though it could have been a magazine), where the issue could only be downloaded to one device, but that is the only time I've heard about that limit.

  • Works but not x2 iPad2.  WiFi network is the same for printer and all Apple devices.  Help.

    We are unable to print from ipad2 using Epson Artisan 730 printer.  Software download to Macbook was successful but unable to download software to x2 iPad2.  All Apple devices are on the same WiFi.  I followed the Epson instructions but message box pops up stating Safari unable to download file.  Any suggestions.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    The iPad and iPad 2 using iOS do not use the same software as your Mac using OS X.
    They are entirely different operating systems.
    Look in the iPad Apps Store for Epson iPrint app for iPad. It is free.
    The Artisan 730 is one of the printers the app supports, so this app should allow you to print from your iPad.
    If you're looking from the Mac side, open iTunes, and the iTunes Store, then the App Store, and search for Epson iPrint for iPad

  • HT4436 I have a secretary who I would like to have access to my icloud calendar for filling empty appointments.  Can she sign up for an icloud account without owning any apple product?

    I have a question about wanting my secretary to have access to my Icloud calendar so she can see open times.  Can she subscribe to get icloud account without having an iphone, ipad, or mac?

    To create an iCloud account it must be set up with an Apple ID on a device with iOS5 or a Mac with OS X Lion.
    Each iOS device can create three iCloud accounts.

    Thanks so much for your reply!  You've definitely got me leaning more toward the Curve now.    I'm sooooo bummed out that our Alltel doesn't have the pink Curve.   They're in the process of switching over to Verizon but said it'll be around late summer before they really start getting their phones in.  All I have to choose from is red and black!  If they had the silver one, I'd go for that even.  But as you mentioned, you can buy all sorts of skins and covers for them so I guess I can always give that a try!  If they'd had the pink Curve I would have exchanged in a heartbeat! haha  I'm such a girl sometimes.
    I really do a lot of emailing, texting, IMing, etc., so the Curve may be better for me.  My last phone was a Scoop (though I only had it for a few months because it was a replacement phone) and toward the end, I started to get used to the full QWERTY keyboard more.  I really like that the Curve has buttons that you can really depress... Not just the flat keys that you can't even really feel as you're pushing! 
    Thanks again for your help!  My sister and niece are also telling me I should go with the Curve.
