Purchasing items on one apple device and then syncing it to another?

I bought an album on my 2nd generation iPod Touch in 2011 and I can play it from my iPod and iTunes but in 2012 I bought an iPhone 4, but did not transfer all of my songs from this album to my iPhone.
I have come to put the full album onto my iPhone and it will not let me for some reason. It is also in a "shadowed" font so I think that means that I cannot get it from iTunes.
Please help!

Hey aharris94,
Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I'd be interested to hear if you can download this album on the iPhone itself by visiting the Purchased section in the iTunes Store:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Thanks,

How do I unverify an alternate email for one Apple ID and then use it for another Apple ID?

So I need to use my email address for another Apple ID and when I enter it, it says that its already verified when I deleted it from my other Apple ID. Does anyone know how I unverify that email address???? Please help!!!

Hey, try these steps:
Go to My Apple ID.
Select Manage your Apple ID and sign in.
Scroll down to check if there are alternate and additional email addresses
Delete or remove those email addresses
Hope this helps.

You can share the same Apple ID for purchasng form the iTunes and app stores without any problems, but you should all used separate iCloud accounts with separate Apple IDs. (You are not required to use the same ID for iCloud and other services as you do for the iTunes store.) This will prevent you from ending up with merged data. You should also use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

You have to "share" the reminders. Read here:

I purchased an album on my PC and then sync it to my iPhone but in my music library in my phone the song appeared twice. Also everytime I deleted the song from my phone and redownload the song from iTunes to the phone it reappears twice. How do I fix this problem?

I've had the exact same problem, but with 72 songs that I can't get off of my phone!
Also, I have the setting set so that my phone does not show music that has been purchase on iTunes but is not synced.
Any ideas?

Is there a way to un-sync my iPod from one computer and then sync it to another computer with iTunes without losing all my data or downloading software?

Hi, I'm selling my current computer that my iPod is synced to and want to un-sync (I think the correct term of phase is) my iPod from my current computer, so i can then sync it to my new computer without downloading any software or deleting all my data. Is this possible? If so, please tell me how. As usual, any help would be helpful.

Do this:
- iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
- Then import into your new computer
- Copy any synced photos to the new computer
- Backup the ipd to the new computer
iOS: How to back up
- Restore the iPod from that backup. The link directly above says how.

If I already have a particular app under one apple Id and I purchase the same app under a different Id for the same device, will it overwrite or replace the previous or will I have two of the same app on the same device??

If I already have a particular app under one apple Id and I purchase the same app under a different Id for the same device, will it overwrite or replace the previous or will I have two of the same app on the same device??
I'm asking because I purchased an app with an id that has been cancelled so I cannot update that particular app. I can purchase the app with my new id but I don't want to do so if its going to erase all the data I have with the previous purchase...

Figured it out. Thanks.

I have 3 apple devices and I use the same apple ID for all 3. I would like to create a new I'd for one of my devices, but do not want to loose the apps on that device. Anyone know how I can do this?

Create a new ID:
On the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into the other one. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into the other one. Make sure that under You can be reached at only the newID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with the new one
- Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out your ID and sign in with the new one.
- 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.

I don't think I see my situation addressed. I have one mobile me account and a separate appleID for purchases. I have 4 devices and my wife has two. Right now they are all using the same mobile me account to sync just the calendar and address book.
1.) I want to add email syncing for my 4 devices and email syncing for my wife's two devices separately, but we want to sync and share the same calendar and address book. Is this possible?
2.) I also have 5 different calendars, one for work, one for home, one for... etc. Is there a way to have different devices only sync certain calendars and not others or is it an all or nothing deal?
Thanks in advance for any tips!

To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud.
You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photosstream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
Generally speaking it is not a good idea to share an iCloud account between different people, it often results in contracts, calendars et cetera being deleted by others. Saying that however you can add secondary iCloud accounts to your devices at settings> mail, contacts, calendars. Secondary accounts do not have all the features of a primary account, but are often very useful. Because you can enable or disable each individual feature of an iCloud account, you can cover almost any situation by using secondary accounts.

Hello lynnettefromsk,
The article linked below details all of the locations that you may need to change your Apple ID. This process should not affect the state of anything on the device at the time.

HT4137 iCloud setup with one Apple ID and multiple devices

iCloud setup with one Apple ID and multiple devices

What, exactly, are you trying to do? You can use the same iCloud account on as many devices as you want, as long as you don't turn on iTunes Match. Once you turn on Match, you're limited to 10 devices total.
Is this what you want to do...same iCloud account, but different iTunes/App store accounts on each device? If so, you can do that also.

HT201251 I want to use 30 ipads to run kiosk software in my restaurant. Can I use one Apple ID (and one credit card) for all devices

I want to use 30 ipads to run kiosk software in my restaurant. Can I use one Apple ID (and one credit card) for all devices?

Alternatively you can always manage your iPads (does not matter how many) with a single apple id and all reporting to your account under "find my device" service. Keeping an eye on all your units. Additionally as you mentioned these are for your Restaurant you may find the solutions offered by this company who creates apps and hardware for this purpose: http://www.spartakioskpro.com
Additionally if you expand beyond those 30 iPads to say 300 you will want to enable or plan on MDM as your best option to automate every ipad to use the same profile and app and ios configuration while also keeping a close eye on all of them via online MDM services like: https://meraki.cisco.com/products/systems-manager
