My wife and I have shared one iTunes account for 6 years. We want to create our own Apple IDs, so when we sync to our new iMac we won't see each others contacts, photos, calendar, music, etc. Is there a way to move music/apps from one ID to a new ID?

No.
One of you create a new AppleID and one use the existing AppleID.
But you can still use the items in each iTunes library.
Create separate computer logins for each of you.
This will give you each your own data. Contacts, calendars, photos, etc. (and your own iTunes library).

My dad and I have shared an iTunes account for years and I just created a new apple id but I have no Idea how to get all those purchases to this new account. Help please?
The old Apple ID (presumably your dads) owns those songs and your new Apple ID does not. However, your dad can authorize your iD to use the songs by going to Store > Authorize This Computer from your iTunes menu and entering his Apple ID and password.

is there any solution to this problem?
Okay, but this is nothing new. Purchased content has ALWAYS been permanently tied to the AppleID account used to buy it. It has never been transferable between accounts, or playable on computers not authorized for that account.
It has nothing to do with how you sync or save your OWN music. You cannot authorize your computer for music bought with an AppleID that you do not control. -
If my wife and I have two seperate itunes accounts can we both use home sharing at the same time on different computers to view each others librarys or is it one or the other only
You can share your libraries within the same household:

Why would they?
Do you have Automatic downloads enabled? Note this only works for items purchased after it is enabled.

Is there a way to move a folder from one account to another?
I have a multi-faceted business and as such, I receive emails for different kinds of work. I'm trying to separate them all out into separate email accounts in order to better manage it all. So I've created two addresses to supplement my main one and I'd like to move some folders from the original account and move them under one of the two new accounts. Is there a way to do this without manually adding each folder (there are hundreds of them) and cutting and pasting the emails?
Any info is appreciated.
Thanks,
JasonIt kind of worked. I have a lot of subfolders in there and it didn't copy all of those over. I imagine I'll have to do those one at a time?

Is there a way to move tab group from one window to another?
I have several windows open, and some of them have multiple tab groups. Is there an easy way to move these tab groups between the windows?
I saw the workaround of making bookmarks of all the tabs in one group, move to the target window and open the bookmarks there.
To be honest I found this one a slow and messy way to do things and hope to find a better solution or raise this as a feature request.
using up-to-date Firefox (26.0 at the time of writing)Hi bsbs,
I don't think so, there are bugs that do exist about this as well
*Tab group not available in customize tool bar in a second window if tab groups is open [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=840579]
Patrick helped me find this add on [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tabgroups-manager/] where it groups tab groups into other groups, and there are bugs that have the [feature request] title in them. -
I just got a Macbook Pro and all of my music is on my old PC. We bought the Mac so I could take it to college. I was thinking about making a new Apple ID because all the devices in my house (My mom's stuff and my sister's stuff) all use the same ID so that we could Facetime once I was gone.
Is the process the same for moving the library as it would be for 2 computers with the same Apple ID?Is the process the same for moving the library as it would be for 2 computers with the same Apple ID?
If you're using home sharing for the move, yes. I'd be inclined to use the Apple ID of the iTunes Store account on the PC you're moving stuff from as the Apple ID to set up the Home Share on each computer. (You're going to need to have the new Mac authorised to the account you used to make purchases on the old PC to play any purchased items with DRM on them from the old PC, anyway.) -

You can have one icloud account and a different itunes account on the phone. I have my icloud account and a shared itunes account. He does not have to use the new icloud account as is ID in itunes and app store. He can keep using the old one.
