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.

  • Same iTunes account but on different computers?

    My husband and I have both got iphone 4s that are on seperate computers but the same itunes account. We have enabled the cloud so obviously have merged contacts and calendars which is what we want but his calendar is from his PC and we want it from my mac only (thats the first question - can we do this?) Does he have to back up via icloud and not computer.I would like to keep mine to the computer if possible.
    I also don't want all of his apps?
    I am also haing trouble getting anything on to my phone! It only has my purchased off itunes on there - am i not allowed to put on the legally bought CDS on there without match?
    We want the photos that we both take to just go to my computer only. He uses his for work everyday so charges his phone through this. Is the only way if he outs it onto my computer?
    Any help appreciated as i seem to understand the concept but can' put it into practice?!

    Thanks

  • 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.

  • I have the same itunes account on two different devices with different information.  how can I merge the two?

    I have an ipad which was synced with an old computer.   I have moved everything to the icloud from my new computer and iphone besides what is on the ipad.  The itunes account is the same, just different info on the two.  How do I merge them? 

    Hello there, Shininglight66.
    It sounds like you're asking how to get content on the iPad transferred down to your computer. The following Knowledge Base article should help out with that issue:

  • HT1203 how do I share some music on same itunes account without changing music using same itunes account, but two different ipod touches

    I need to know how to stop losing / adding music I like/ dont like to my and my brothers ipod.  I gave him my older ipod(2nd Gen) with music on it already. I bought a ipod (3rd Gen) also. Both devices are registered to me; but I gave my brother the older one.  Now when either of us add / delete music it affects both ipods when either one on us sync.  We use the same computor(windiws7), he uses his own account on the computor, butit accesses the same itune/ library.  How can we split the itunes music between the two ipods?

    Hi gail,
    Thanks for the quick reply! The music part makes sense, good to know I don't have to duplicate the lot. The big question stillr emains as to whether iTunes can cope with two different iPhones, running different versions of the iOS, and therefore different app versions.
    Currently all the apps in iTunes are years old, and many haven't updated in months (years?) because the 3G is running iOS 4.2.1 (and can't be upgraded). Many of these have since been updated in the iTunes store (for the various incarnations of iPhone since) and the old versions that my 3G requires have been replaced.
    I'm worried that syncing the 4S running iOS 5, and running the most recent updates for same apps, will cause iTunes to overwrite the old 3G compatible ones when I sync. Unless iTunes is smart enough to know which version of the app is for which OS, without updating the legacy version when I update the apps on the 4S?
    You guys shouldn't face that problem, as iPad and iPhone apps don't replace each other (I believe? Not sure about this) as new updates are released for each app, you'd have a copy for each device (for example Evernote for iPad, and Evernote for iPhone). I can't figure out if iTunes can handle keeping separate iPhone versions for Evernote iOS 4.2.1 and Evernote for iOS 5. My gut feeling is no, but I want to amke sure before I lose the legacy versions of each app.
    Of course, maybe I'm just paranoid and iTunes is in fact perfectly capable of keeping old and new apps in the same library?
    Cheers

  • 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!

  • Using the same iTunes account, can two iPads use different phone nubers for Factime?

    Using the same iTunes account and two different iPads, is it possible to associate each iPad to a different phone number?

    They must be iPhone numbers and only if you have two iPhones that are associated with the same Apple ID. If you don't have two iPhone numbers, you can use another email address one one of the iPads in order to use FaceTime and Messages on both devices that are both using the same Apple ID.
    Assigning a new email address to one of the devices.

    I have two separate itune accounts under two different email accounts and would like to combine them under one account.  Is this possible and if so, how do I do it?

    If you go to Settings > iTunes & AppStore , you can sign out from your account, and sign in with the one you've used to purchase apps.This will not remove any apps you already have on it.
    Then you can go to AppStore and download apps you've purchased (either via "Purchased" button in "Updates", or simply search for them and download them.
    That way you can have multiple accounts' apps on your iPad. When updating, you will be prompted for the credentials for account you've purchased given App with.

  • How am i able to use the same itunes account on a different ipod?

    How am I able to use the same iTunes account on a different iPod?

    By just using the same iTunes account.  If you set up the iPod on your computer just make sure that iTunes is signed your account.  Of settingup via wifi, just enter your existing account.  Do not create a new one.

    Have been told if you use the same itunes account on two iphones, you will receive each others text messages, is this true?

    you can use the same itunes id for purchases and so on, but have separate icloud id's for imessaging and all the icloud stuff. it's not preferable, but it isn't a problem either.

  • I have two Ipods andwant t oset up two Itune accounts with two different libraries

    I have two Ipods and want to set up two Itune accounts with two different libraries.  Can this be done?

    You can, but switching iTunes libraries and store accounts is generally more hassle than it is worth. You can sync each device with selected purchases and if you have more than one iOS device disable the option to Automatically include new apps, then apps purchased on one device won't automatically load onto the other.
