My husband has an Ipad that his company bought him that has their own apple ID for him, however, we have purchased a lot of music on our personal Apple ID.  Is there a way to put OUR personal music on his work Ipad?

My husband has a work Ipad with a different Apple ID.  Is there a way to load our personal music onto his Ipad with our Apple ID?  We don't want to have to repurcahse music just for his Ipad.  When we put it into our computer is asks us to switch the Apple ID, but we don't want to mess anything up for his work.

iPads are meant to be single user devices, with single ID's. The only way I can think of is if you burned cd's of your  music, then ripped them on the work computer that he syncs with and get them on the device from there (I'm guessing this will work, I don't purchase music do I don't know if the DRM travels when you burn cd's or not).
You can't run 2 different apple ID's on the same iPad.

    Hello cgbuehling
    You can, but only the purchases that were made from the iTunes Store. Other content that was imported from a CD or other sources will not transfer over.

  • My laptop that had my iTunes on it has exploded (in a sense). I now have a new laptop, but I'm afraid to plug my iPod in because I know it will wipe out all 300 songs. Is there a way to put my old music on my new laptop?

    (After my old laptop blew, it won't turn on anymore). I've invested quite a bit of money into my music, and it'd be a bummer if it's all gone to waste.
    Thanks in advance!

    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • I am running 4 ipod classica through one computer and one itunes account/profile.  The ipods belong to me, husband and 2 kids.  How can the kids now get their own accounts but keep the stuff I have already downloaded for them?  They have their own laptops

    I am currently running 4 ipod classics through my own account/profile on itunes.  They belong to me, my husband and 2 kids. 
    The kids are getting older now and have their own laptops.  I would like them to have their own itunes accounts as they will be away from home much of the time and will want to make their own puchases. 
    How can I set them up so that they are independent from my account, but not lose the content that I have downloaded for them over the years?  (A lot of content).

    You and your husband can share a store account and still have seperate iCloud accounts for your contacts, bookmarks and stuff like that.  Click here for instructions to make an apple account without entering a credit card.  Make sure you use a different email address for each apple account. 
    Set up your iPhone/iPad whatever using the new account for iCloud.  Then go into settings/store and sign in with your purchasing account, you may need to sign out of the other account.  To the best of my knowledge, your household is allowed to share purchased legally, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
    Once you each have your own devices set to your own accounts you can set them to backup to that account and it will keep all your contacts seperate.

  • TS4036 I recently had to send my iphone off for repair and when it came back they had restored it t factory settings. Is there any way I can get my music and photos back from icloud ??

    I recently had to send my iphone off for repair and when I have got it back it has been reset to factory settings. Can I get my phonos,music etc back through icoulds ?

    If your backup is incomplete you won't be able to use it.  Do you have any backups on your computer?  (You can check by opening iTunes and going to iTunes>Preferences>Devices (Edit>Preferences>Devices on a PC).  That will list any available backups on your computer.

  • I tried to download all of the music from my old iPod Classic and my MacBook Pro erased all of my music and movies without authorization. Is there any way I can restore my music to my iPod?

    Please help! I had about a 40 GB collection and it is devastating to have lost all of these memories.

    Contact the developer/go to theri support site.

  • Is there a way to mute the background music in a slideshow so the audio of an included video can be heard?

    I am running iPhoto 11 version 9.4.2 (710.42) on a MacBook Pro.  Some of the slide shows I have developed have videos included along with photos.  I have added background music to these slide shows with the sideshow music selector.  The videos have audio that I want the viewer to hear, however the background music continues to play and the video audio is hard to hear, and when there is music in the audio of the video, the two musical pieces tend to clash. Is there a way to mute the background music so the audio of the video can be clearly heard?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    That's called 'ducking' and no, not with iPhoto. You need something with more control of the soundtrack.
    Alternatives to iPhoto's slideshow include:
    iMovie, on every Mac sold.
    Others, in order of price: PhotoPresenter  $29
    PhotoToMovie  $49.95
    PulpMotion  $129
    FotoMagico $29 (Home version) ($149 Pro version, which includes PhotoPresenter)
    Final Cut Pro X $299
    It's difficult to compare these apps. They have differences in capability - some are driven off templates. some aren't. Some have a wider variety of transitions. Others will have excellent audio controls. It's worth checking them out to see what meets your needs. However, there is no doubt that Final Cut Pro X is the most capable app of them all. You get what you pay for. 

  • HT4527 My laptop that currently has my itunes library on it is broken and so I can not access it. Is there a way of getting my whole music library put onto a different laptop?

    My laptop that currently has my itunes library on it is broken and so I can not access it. Is there a way of getting my whole music library put onto a different laptop?

    You can have two separate libraries, just do not put them into the same location on the computer. You could also create a new user on the laptop, you, and then you would start out with a blank iTunes library, then just add yours to that. It would also prevent you and your girlfriend from mixing content up unless you share an Apple ID.

  • HT1689 Is there a way to put music that you have on a flash drive that you didn't get off of iTunes on your iPhone?

    Add the music from your flash drive to your itunes media libary, then sync your phone to itunes.

  • Is there a way to put a large amount of music on your iPod without having to keep all the files in iTunes on your computer as well? I want to put my entire music collection (including cds) on my iPod but don't want to take up the space on my computer.

    is there a way to put a large amount of music on the ipod without having to keep all the files on itunes as well? I want to use my ipod as an externa drive and put all of my music on it without taking up the space on my computer. I also don't want to lose all my files everytime I plug ipod into my computer. Is this possible? Is there a way to avoid using itunes and only use the ipod as an external drive?

    You cannot put music onto your iPod without using iTunes, that what iTunes is for.
    It's also not a good idea to wipe the music from your computer and having it only on your iPod. We see countless posts here from people who have done just that - and then lost everything when the iPod needs a Restore. Even if you never need to Restore your iPod, what happens when you eventually replace the iPod? You'll be back here asking how to get the music from one iPod to another. That's not easy to do, we see countless posts about that too!
    A much better idea is to buy an external drive (a proper external drive, not simply an iPod) and put your large amount of music onto that drive. Then point your iTunes Library to that drive. However, you need to remember two things:
    You still need a backup of that Library.
    Using an external drive as your iTunes Library means that the drive must be connected and ready to read before starting your iTunes programme. If it isn't, then iTunes will look on the C: drive - and you will find no music in your Library. (Once again, lots of posts about that as well!)

  • I lost my iPhone a few days ago and I put it on the lost mode. I don't want to give up looking for it. If a person stole it, is there a way for them to get into it or is it locked? I don't want to give up!!!

    I lost my iPhone a few days ago and I put it on the lost mode. I don't want to give up looking for it. If a person stole it, is there a way for them to get into it or is it locked? I don't want to give up!!! But if there is a way that they could get in and take over my phone with a new number without me deactivating the iPhone and activating a different phone with my number.

    lost mode don't depend of the sim card. If you take your Iphone on Lost mode... anybody can use it with the original card sim or with an other one.
    Did you try to localise it ?
    But hope that thief don't make a restore of the Iphone... Call your Mobile Operator to try to block the IMEI Number.

  • My 83 yo dad has a 1st gen iPad.  He has so many photos he would like to view on his HD TV; so I purchased Apple TV for him.  But I am having a hard time setting this up.  I have been able to get his music on Apple TV, but he really wants the photos. Help

    My dad has a 1st gen iPad.  He is 83 yo.  I recently purchased an Apple TV for him because he loves Netflix and I told him that he could view his photos via the television.  BUT, I'm not having success with Photostream.  Help me.....I've been researching and trying everything I can and so far, no luck.  He keeps asking about the photos, and I'm losing patience with myself and Apple TV.  Can anyone help????  Thank you.

  • My iCloud on my phone is undJer another persons account I however am no longer with them and want to cut all ties and is there any way for me to change my iCloud account or will it affect my phone? And it's photos, apps, music?

    My iCloud on my phone is under another persons account I however am no longer with them and want to cut all ties and is there any way for me to change my iCloud account or will it affect my phone? And it's photos, apps, music?

    You have to delete the iCloud account but you can keep all your data such as Contacts, Calendars etc. when you delete the account you will prompted to "Keep on my iPhone".
    All your purchased content (like apps and music from iTunes Store) belongs to the original ID and you have to re-Purchase them under your Apple ID.
    Photos in Camera Roll remains in Camera Roll.
    Photos in photo stream that are not in Camera Roll must be saved in Camera Roll.
    Photo that previously synced from iTunes remains in photo library until you synced with another iTunes library (another computer).
    Also sign out from iMessages, FaceTime and Home sharing (Settings>Music)

  • My wife and I share an account , is there a way to put both our contact lists in our one iCloud account without merging them., My wife and I share an account , is there a way to put both our contact lists in our one iCloud account without merging them.

    My wife and I both have iPhones and we share an apple ID. Is there a way to put both our contact list in the same iCloud without merging the lists.  We want to be able to use the same iCloud account because we share info .

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    No, there is no way of maintaining two separate contact lists with one account. Ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, you can still share your info by allowing each other to log into the other's account as a secondary account at settings >mail, contact, calendars. You can choose which services you choose to share and which you don't. This way you could maintain separate contact lists but still share them.
