Same account on two different computers

My sister and I share an iTunes account, but we have two seperate computers. Before we got our second computer, I purchased and imported many songs (over 500) onto the account on her computer. Now, I have the same account on my computer, but I can't access those songs unless I get on her computer. Is there any way to transfer songs from one computer to the other when they exist on the same account, besides making A LOT of CDs?

Other than CDs your options are DVDs, external hard drive, over network, and iPod. Pick the easiest one you have access to.

You'd need to set-up your account as IMAP on both computers.

Same iTunes Account on Two Different Computers

Is there any way for someone to create an iTunes that allows a person to access the same iTunes account on two different computers? Like if my mom wanted the same songs on her computer as the ones on my dad's computer, but she doesn't want to go through the trouble of using a flash drive. They both want to have access to the same account on two different computers.

if the computer cannot be turned on, one option would be to remove the hard drive and put it in an external enclosure that can be connected to the working computer.

Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.
Type "move itunes library from pc to mac" or similar into the google search bar.

How to merge two itunes accounts on two different computers?

When I originally set up my iTunes account I did not have my own laptop. I used my sisters laptop for this which now has her own iTunes account stored on it.
However, my tunes which I have purchased are also part of this account.
Obviously my sister is fine with me having access to these tunes, however I would like to have them stored in the account I have set up on my own laptop now that I have my own device.
Is there any way I can merge both accounts or the content of the accounts without losing anything we have purchased or uploaded?
Is this 'merging the libraries?', I didn't think it would be as they are on different computers?
Any help here would be great as I am driving my husband mad with this!
Thank you!

Hi Carolyn,
Thanks for this.
Do you think there is any way to get the content of the libraries onto one account?
Would home sharing work just to facilitate the movement of the tracks?
Thanks again!

I have two itunes accounts on two different computers, can i merge the accounts so i can then have the same music on both ipod and iphone?

i have two itunes accounts one for each of my two computers, can i merge them so that i can have the same music on my ipod and iphone,
it is all so confusing i need help!!!

You can't currently merge accounts and the content will remain tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded it, though you can have more than one account authorised on the same computer's iTunes via Store > Authorise This Computer. As only one account can be actually logged in at a time (Store > Sign In / Sign Out) for purchasing or re-downloading/viewing past purchases, you may want to use just the one account for future purchases.

you can transfer Domain.sites2 between the two machines.
but you should have the same iweb version on both machine. otherwise, you will run into hassle of this:

Two seererate accounts on two different computers

Ok here's my question and i'm hoping someone can help. I have a Ipod Classic and an Iphone. My ipod is currently on my old laptop that I really dont use anymore and my Iphone is connected to my new laptop. The problem is that I didn't realize I started an entirely new account for my Iphone and therefore now when I want to move my Ipod to my new laptop it tells me I have to erase all my media from it. I have almost 40 GB of stuff on it and no way do I want to erase it. Plus the account I had registered to my ipod I dont even use anymore. So how can I merge these two accounts without losing anything?

You can't merge 2 ituens store accounts, and neither will apple do it for you. The purchase info is embedded into each downloaded file.
You need to authorize your new laptop with the old account info. Sign out of the store and sign back in with the old account credentials.

HT2688 How to play same song of two different computers at the same time

Hi I have turned on Home Sharing. So one computer can play music on another. Is there any way to have one computer play what the other computer is playing at the same time. Other than just starting the same song as close in time as possible on each computer.

create an album of all of the photos you want to order, open the album, select all and order - be sure teh photos are cropped to the print size so unexpected cropping does not occur during the printing process

Can I have the same library on two different computers

I have my iTunes library on a external drive linked to my work computer. Can I link it to my home computer too?

If it is only the media files that are on the external drive, with the library files in the default location of User's Music\iTunes then see Make a split library portable.

Premiere Pro CS5 Not exportting to tape on TWO different Computers!!! HELP

I had a prior post in january with a new desktop having problems exporting to tape. when it would export a blue screen would come up at random times breaking up the recording. almost like the camera was losing signal with the computer.
Im capturing and exporting using a Canon XHG1 HDV camera.
Both the Laptop (sony vpcf11x) and Desktop (custom with intel sandybridge motherboard) can CAPTURE tapes fine. but export causes problems on BOTH machines.
Both of my computers (a laptop and desktop use the Intel i7 chipset.
I have a Third desktop (gateway something or other) that ive been using Sony Vegas to Export to tape and it WORKS EVERYTIME! with the same Camera and Firewire Cable.
Itried installing Sony Vegas onto the new Desktop to export and I get the SAME problem that I get with Exporting with Premiere.
has anyone else heard of these problems? it is really starting to irritate me. with everything ive done, it has to be something with Adobe. how can i have the same problem on two different computers?

Here are more specific information with my system and settings for you to see. I also included a video of my workflow and showing you what exactly is happening on export.
Project Settings:
Capture Format DV
Video Rendering and Playback: Mercury Playback Engine Software only
Sequence Settings:
DV NTSC
29.97 fps
720x480
Aspect Ratio 16:9
30fps Drop-Frame Timecode
Playback Settings:
Desktop Video Display during playback checked box
External Device: DV_29.97 720x480i
Aspect Ration Conversion: Hardware Only
External Device Audio
Export: external device DV: 29.97 720x480i
Disable video output when in the background is not checked
Export to tape settings:
Activate recording device is checked
assemble timecode, delay movie start, and preroll _ frames (none are checked)
abort after _ dropped frames (not checked)
report dropped frames (not checked)
render audio before video (is checked)
I render out the video to one file (on my desktop).
then import the clip into a new sequence with the above settings.
file>export>tape>
then it begins recording and drops out like the camera loses signal.
this is really frusterating.

How can I use the same "I Tunes" on two different computers

I’m using two different kinds of Personal Computer: One is Desktop PC And the other one is Notebook .
In each computer there are the same songs and when I get the new ones to the Desktop I want them to be placed on the Notebook or reverse.
Where does the I Tunes save the playlist on the hard drive ?
I have prepared a playlist on my Notebook and want it to be seen on the Desktop but I dont want to fallow the steps File > Library > Export Playlist on the Notebook. Is there any other way to make this issue instead of the mentioned steps.
How can I see the same Playlists and songs on two different computers ( notebook and desktop) including the updating processes.
Operating systems of the computers:
Desktop: XP Pro
Notebook: Vista Bussiness

I use SyncToy 2.0 to keep two instances of my library in sync. SyncToy's preview will show which files it is about to update giving you a chance to spot unexpected changes and during the run only the changed files will be copied saving lots of time.
As long as I sync after making updates at one instance of the library before making any updates at the other then everything works just fine. I periodically run iTunes Folder Watch to check for any orphaned entries or new items that haven't been imported into the active library. If your machines are regularly networked together this process is fairly straightfoward. Mine are in disparate locations so I use one of the (physically) small WD My Passport host powered drives which I take between home & work, synchronising at either end. This gives me three complete copies of my library so I'm covering backup & synchronisation in the same operation.
When connecting my iPod at either location iTunes recognises itself as the "home" library for the iPod so I'm able to use the sync with selected playlists option without getting warning messages about the iPod being synced with a different library.

You can use the same apple id for two separate phoones to share apps/music, however you would need a separate apple id for both phone for imessage/facetime/icloud.

HT1364 I used these instructions to move my i-tunes library to the external hard drive that two different home pc's access. My playlists do not show on both Is it possible to have one i-pod synch amid two different computers that use the same library?

I have a sole i-pod and two pc's, used the instructions for "iTunes for Windows: Moving your iTunes Media folder" in the hope that I could synch my one i-pod between two different computers that are sharing the same library. Is it possible to have two seperate computers that only share an external hard drive (one wireless, one not) ? When I am looking at a shared library should it appear the same on both machines (ie: playlists/ purchased list etc)?

If it is moved correctly, playlists will display on both computers and it should be possible.
Close iTunes.
Hold <SHIFT> and launch iTunes.
When prompted to create a new or open an existing iTunes library point iTunes to the iTunesLibrary.itl file on the external drive.
The entire library should now show up with all playlists and playcounts.
Do this on both computers.
Keep in mind that only one computer can access iTunes at a time, otherwise errors will occur when each computer attempts to write to or update the iTunesLibrary.itl file.
Syncing may work seemlessly with both computers, but honestly syncing is designed to work with one and only one computer.

Same account on two different computers
