Two Differnt iTunes Accounts On Same Phone...Please Help

My wife and I both have an iPhone. This morning, she tried to update a couple Apps in the App Store but it showed my iTunes ID and it was asking her for my password. What's funny is that when she purchases an App, it's show her iTunes ID. How can I change this so both updates & purchases are under her ID only? Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks.

The iPhone will recognize the account through which the apps were purchased and ask for the iTunes Store account information as appropriate. I have apps from two different iTunes Store accounts on my iPads and have no problems updating; the App Store app pops up the Store account ID for the app as appropriate and asks for the password. So she should have no problems.
Regards.

    I'm going to give my old iPad to my granddaughter, I want to create an account for her, but I want to do it on my computer so there are no worries about who is spending credits for that account. Don't know how this will work, or if its possible to two iTunes libraries.
    Okay.
    She's going to use your computer to sync with iTunes.
    Create an new computer login on your computer for her. This will keep her stuff separate and she won't be able to mess with any of your info.
    Log into her computer account.
    Launch iTunes.
    Create a new iTunes account for her. See this -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2731
    You can enter a credit card to create the account then delete the CC info. Or you can use an iTunes gift card and she can fund the account with gift cards instead of using a CC to make purchases. This is an easy way to control spending.
    on the iPad, go to Settings > iMessage > Off.
    Then Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content & settings.
    Once it finishes, plug in the iPad, select it in iTunes and this will set it up as a new device. Enter all your granddaughter's info.
    When she wants to sync her iPad or use iTunes, she needs to log into your computer with her account.
    Then the iTunes library she uses will be only hers.

  • Have an old computer with windows xp that I replaced with a windows 7.  Can't recover my Itunes account and library.  Please help!

    I have a full library in itunes.  I can still purchase form the Ipod but since buying a new computer, I can't recover the library or account on the new computer.  Old computer ran windows xp now running windows 7

    Why can't you recover the account?  The account is not tied to the computer... simply log in.
    The media must be moved from one computer to another, simply signing into iTunes does not cause it to magically appear.

  • My wife and I decided to both buy Iphones do I put them both under the same apple ID, or do I create two different apple ID's and two differnt icloud accounts?

    My wife and I decided to both buy Iphones do I put them both under the same apple ID, or do I create two different apple ID's and two differnt icloud accounts? We want to be able to share my itunes library on both our phones and sync our calendars, but I don't want every update and reminder that my wife puts in her phone and I know she doesn't want every reminder I put in my phone.

    What you need to do is both use the same Apple ID for iTunes content, but separate Apple ID's for everything else. So, you keep your existing Apple ID. If not a verifiable email address, you will need to create a new Apple ID for yourself. You also create an Apple ID for your wife, again a verifiable email address. You use the existing Apple ID for all iTunes content. The new Apple ID's for iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, etc. Here's how to create an Apple ID:

  • Two separate itunes accounts on the same computer

    Ok I need help before I throw my computer and iphones.
    I have two separate itunes accounts, and two separate iphones. I'm using the same computer.
    I'm trying to sync my wife's iphone to her itunes account on my laptop, but it keeps wanting to load my apps to her phone.
    Now I signed out of my itunes, and signed into her's.
    How come itunes is pulling my apps up and wanting to sync them to her phone? 
    I authorized her phone to my laptop as well.
    This doesn't make sense at all.
    How can I just start from scratch and just have itunes backup what's on her phone, and thats it?

    The issue is this is referring to music, I'm asking about applications.
    If I setup a new user on my laptop, when I open itunes, isn't it going to just pull the same data in itunes already?
    And if this is the way to fix it, I would need to have a separate user on my laptop for every device that isn't linked to my itunes account? (seems extreme)

  • HT2542 Can we have two separate itunes accounts using the same mac?

    I am wanting to download music to my Thunderbolt smart phone (i know, no iphone yet, next upgrade) and I want to use itunes to do it. My partner has an itunes account and I thought I opened my own itunes account, but apparently I didn't. I don't like the same music and only want to download music I like to my phone. Can we just have one account and be able to download checked music from the itunes to multiple devices?

    I'm confused
    Can we have two separate itunes accounts using the same mac?
    Can we just have one account and be able to download checked music from the itunes to multiple devices?
    Do you want one or two?
    By the way, and iTunes account is really the thing you use online to purchase music, not what you have on a computer.  You have user accounts on a computer, and you have iTunes libraries or collections of media.  You can have multiple user accounts on a computer.  You can have a single or multiple user accounts use a single or multiple libraries.  We need to know exactly what it is you have/want.

  • I have a Verizon and At&t Iphone 4 can I use the same Itunes account for both phones?

    I have a Verizon Iphone 4 though my job.  I also have a At&t Iphone 4 for my personal phone.  Can I use the same Itunes account for both phone or will I need a separate account for Verizon Iphone?

    I dont live in US, live in Japan.. but I do have 2 iPhones, one 3GS and one 4. I use same iTunes Account on both.
    You might have a little "problem" if your payment were by Credit Card, everytime you try to buy something (I mean, try to download something on your iphone, not from your computer) , your going to need to verify your payment... but if u use iTunes Gift Card, you wont have any problem with that
    sry about my english... I hope I helped you

  • Can I set up two different ITunes accounts on the same computer?

    Is it possible to set up two separate ITunes accounts on one computer and yet share some of the same songs in the Library?

    Yes create two users on that computer
    One for each account, and then you will have 2 itunes libraries.
    Control Panel, user accounts, add new account (give it admin rights).
    Log off and then log in with the new account.
    Make sure you log out and not switch accounts when moving between the two users.

  • Can I have two separate iTunes accounts on the same computer?

    Can I have two separate iTunes accounts on the same computer?  My wife's music is much different than mine.  Can we have different iTunes libraries to work with on the same computer?

    Yes. Launch iTunes with the Shift key held down as needed, or use separate Windows user accounts on the computer.

  • Can I use the same music file for two accounts to be able to set up two different iTunes accounts?

    I would like to set up two different Itunes accounts on my mac.  I would like to have different accounts for my wife and I so that our devices have different accounts/contacts/email and stuff but we would like to use the same music library.  Can I set the different itunes to go to the same file to see music?  Or could I copy the music file and give the copy to the second itunes account?  I could set it up and authorize the music like for another user?  Is any of this possible?

    Hello 19firedude
    Try moving the entire iTunes Media folder to the Shared folder on your Mac and then in iTunes preferences, change the location of that folder to line it up. Then all you have to do in another user is follow the second set of steps to get that shared properly. Check out the article below for more detailed instructions.

  • Can we have two different itunes accounts on the same mac?

    Can we have two different itunes accounts on the same account? I am having trouble accessing mine from my sons.

    Yes you can.
    The fact you cannot access your son's library from your User account is intentional. User accounts on your Mac are nearly as separate from each other as your Macs are from anyone else's on the planet. To copy music from his account to yours, first copy it to the Shared folder, then log into your account and import the music. Then, you can erase it from Shared.
    The Shared folder exists at /Users/Shared.

  • Can I home share two separate itunes accounts to the same homeshare?

    I would like to home share two separate iTunes accounts we have at the house.  Has anyone done that? Or am I forced to consolidate to one iTunes account which only allows 5 authorized computers?

    Yes you can set up homesharing on more than one library to be shared with other devices, just use the same homesharing ID and password on all of them.
