Sharing Music from different login accounts on a MacBook Pro

I just have a quick question. My wife sync's her iPhone to her account login on my MacBook Pro which is different from my login from startup. We share the computer but I got her, her own login so she could add and mess with the features she prefers. Anywho, I am curious if there is any way to share my music folder on my main admin user account on my MacBook Pro with her login account (we switch users, login and logout). Is this possible? Would make life a LOT easier. Hopefully this makes sense...we both just want to be able to sync the same music to our iPhones without having to backup all the music on my external harddrive and then load it onto her login account. I dont use Mobile Me.

    How do I transfer music from different iTunes accounts on different computers?

    Move the song files to the desired computer and then either drag them into the library in the open iTunes application window or the Automatically Add to iTunes folder. If this would cause the single library to have content from more than five Apple IDs, you may not be able to sync it to an iPod or iOS device.

    How do I share music in iTunes between different iTunes account on the MacBook Pro?

    If it's in a single iTunes library, it's already being shared. If it's in separate user accounts on the computer, move one library to the /Users/Shared/ folder, launch iTunes with the Option key held down, point it there, and import the music from the other library to it.

  • CAN I TRANSFER MY MUSIC FROM MY IPOD NANO TO MY MACBOOK PRO

    can i transfer my music from my ipod nano to my macbook pro.

    Yes, you can. If your music collection was purchased from iTunes, you are in a good shape since that music is forever yours under your iTunes account. Therefore, after installing iTunes on your new computer, sign into your account and see all your music under "Purchsed". Then simply download it to be phisically present onto your macbook pro (for free since you've already paid for it).
    On the other hand if you happens to not be a sucker to waist money on iTunes and your collection was ripped from the internet (via torrents and such), you can follow this guide to transfer ipod music to mac. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

  • Transfering music from different itunes accounts with different ids...

    I am trying to transfer music from one itunes account, set up on old computer to a new itunes account set up on new computer. The problem is it is two different ids.  How can I transfer all of my older music to this new account?

    You cannot transfer music from one acount to another.
    However you can authorise the 2nd computer to play the other id music
    Ctrl B to show top menu
    Store > Authorise this computer...
    Then you can copy the music over to your itunes and it will play on your machine

  • How do I transfer my music from my iPhone to my new Macbook Pro?

    I'm wondering how I can transfer my music, etc from my iPhone to my new Macbook Pro?

    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The syncis one way -  computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    You should copy everything from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

  • Sharing music from one itunes account to another

    We have all our music on one computer with our original apple id on itunes. My daughter now has her own apple id, laptop and iphone. Can I transfer all the music from one computer to another and link/share it with her itunes account so she can download it onto her iphone?

    Music can only be synced to one computer....if done on one machine then you go to another...it will erase all content (to stop piracy).
    Have him give you the physical file and you put it on your machine. Then try to play it in iTunes. It will prompt for his username and password (yes he will have to give it to you). It will then authorize your machine for his account as well (meaning you can play music from him). Note you have a limit of number of machines you can authorize and thus you will loose one authorization by doing this. So if you end up getting more machines in your home and/or other devices...you are short one account number now.

  • How do I get all my music from my iPhone onto my new macbook pro's iTunes? My old laptop is broken.

    I recently purchased a Macbook Pro as my old Macbook broke. I want to transfer all the music from my iPhone onto the iTunes of my new Macbook Pro, however I cannot do this by moving the tracks onto an external hardrive from the old computer to the new as the old is broken. I've looked at lots of different forums etc. on the internet and I've still had no luck! Please help me !

    Get a third-party utility such as Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac. See also, Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store and How to dowload purchased music.

  • Can i access my iTunes on a different "user accounts" on my MacBook Pro?  If so, how?  Thanks.

    Hello Mac People, I am trying to access iTunes from a different User Account on my MacBookPro but i am not able to get access to it.  I was trying to change a song in a keynote presentation and discovered that i was not able to change the song from that "Guest User" account.  So i had to go back into my main account open up keynote there, change the song and then i could continue with it in the new system.  It seems a permission issue with iTunes on a different user account (i am talking about like in System Preferences>Systems>Users and Groups - where you create additional users on your mac)???  Thoughts? Thanks.

  • How do I transfer music from my Nano to my new Macbook Pro?

    I have recently purchased a new MacBook Pro Ret and I cant work out how to transfer music from my Nano to the Mac

    You need to make the new Mac iTunes library your syncing library. iTunes on the Mac sees your iPad as a new device because you have never synced with this computer before. You can make the Mac your syncing computer by following the instructions in this user tip. You will be able to transfer the purchased music on the iPad into iTunes when you follow this procedure.

    I copied my iTunes music from an old computer to a new Macbook pro but it did not copy the playlists that are on my Nano. How can I copy the playlists and their content on the nano to the Macbook? If I automatically sync the nano from the Macbook, will it scrub the content and existing playlists on the nano?
