Two iTunes accounts on one computer one iPad
Hi,
In our house we have an iMac with two user accounts on it - my account and my wife's. We have separate iTunes accounts, and share music between them. We have recently bought an iPad, which is synced to my iTunes account. However it's a shared machine so we would ideally like to be able to access both iTunes libraries from it. Is this possible, and if so how do we go about it without having to merge our music collections together (something we'd rather not do, as we have different tastes)?
I know iPads aren't ideal for multiple users, but surely there's a way to do this?
Thanks!
Se descargan aplicaciones para mi iPad 64 3G, las cuales en el momento de sincronizar no pasan a la iPad debido a que solicita una autorizacion para el ordenador la cual se autoriza con ID y el Password, esta orden se procesa y vuelve a solicitar nuevamente la autorizacion y asi sucesivamente.
He intentado creando nuevas cuentas y desinstalando iTunes y volviendolo a instalar.
Favor de orientarme en la solucion adecuada para el asunto comentado anteriormente.

HT1495 help i have two itunes accounts i only want one.
I had an iphone touch and I set it up with an itunes account. Later when I set up my iphone (and subsequently my ipad) I used another email address accidentally. Since then I had my main computer reformatted, and lost all of my itunes music (aside from recent purchases) and since my ipod has been irrepairably smashed. Although somehow my phone still has all of my music, the only music I have on my ipad is new items purchased on my iphone.
I have two itunes accounts and in the history I can see all of the purchases, but do not know how to drop them into my current itunes account (with the other apple id).
Hoping for help...You can't. Apple will not allow merging of iTunes accounts. You need to pick one (whichever has the most stuff) and just use that one.
Otherwise, you'll be constantly signing out of one account to sign back in with the other. -
Here's the issue-I have two iTunes accounts, yet account #1 always comes up when I want to update my apps. This occurs even when account #2 is logged in and has been synced from desktop to iPad. Additionally,Account #2 is logged in on the iPad and yet account #1 prompt appears when updating. Interestingly account #2 functions normal for iTunes purchases but not apps purchases. Any suggestions?
Apps will ALWAYS be tied to the account from which they were purchased. You will always have to update the apps from the account from which they were purchased.

Two iTunes accounts each on their own iPads. How do we share the Mac with both?
My husband has an iPhone and iPad with his iTunes set up on them. I have an iPhone and iPad with my own iTunes set up. We have just bought a MacBook Air, is there any way of linking the Mac to both of our devices and separate iTunes accounts?
You need a unique AppleID for each iCloud account. So grab some free gmail, hotmail, aol, yahoo or whatever email addresses to make five new AppleIDs. Now, everybody make an iCloud account for themselves, and keep the existing shared AppleID and password just for use in the iTunes and App Stores. You can also each use your own unique AppleIDs to make iMessage accounts and keep those separate as well.

Two iTunes accounts, one ipad
Is it possible to have two itunes accounts set up on one iPad. Husband and I are sharing an iPad and want to know if this can work?
Technically, yes. You can log out of your current ID and log in with his and them download his past purchases. However you will have to log back into yours when you update your stuff. And when ever you sync it to your computer it will erase his stuff from it.

We have two iTunes accounts on one computer. Why is my music, apps, etc showing in my husbands account? Home sharing is NOT selected. This recently became an issue when we added additional devices. Now we keep getting each other's apps!

can i have two itunes accounts on one computer
Hello Barry
It is a yes and no answer. Yes you can but you cannot have them in the same iTunes library or one of the accounts cannot be associated for 90 days. You would need to have either a separate user or separate iTunes library to have both Apple ID’s on the same computer.

Not sure what you mean.
An account is a user name and password.
Sign into whichever account you want to use for purchasing.
Authorize the computer for both account to listen to the content. -
How can my wife and I use our two iTunes account on one iPad
How can my wife and I use our two iTunes accounts on one IPad
Unfortunately it will be difficult. iPads are personal devices like phones and done have credentials. You can of course log out of and into the app store to download purchased apps but the iPad will then have all the apps of both your wife and you (though you could put these into folders I guess).

I have two ITunes accounts on one computer. One is a classic iPod, the other is for a Nano with a different user. Is it possible to "share" playlists? If so, how do I go about doing that?
videoDVD is a delivery format, normally end of the of the road...
but, you can convert dvds into something editable, you need 3rd party tools, your options are, in recommended order:
* DVDxDV (free trial, 25$, Pro: 90$)
* Apple mpeg2 plugin (20$) + Streamclip (free)
* Cinematize >60$
* Mpeg2Works >25$ + Apple plug-in
* Toast6/7 allows converting to dv/insert dvd, hit apple-k
* connect a miniDV Camcorder with analogue input to a DVD-player and transfer disk to tape/use as converter -
Can I set up two iTunes accounts on one computer?
I have a personal iTunes account set up on my laptop, but I need to create an account for my school. Can I have two iTunes accounts on one computer?
I think you can. But issues can happen when you sync, transfer, and back-up with itunes on computer.

I have two iTunes accounts. When I view account info on a older account that I seldom use, it indicated that it was associated with one device; I.e., my IPad. I am trying to link it to the other account instead

You want to uise the newer account with the iPad?
Settings > Store.
Tap account, sign out then sign in with the account you want. -
I have two iTunes accounts. One was set up for my iPhone; the second was created for my iPad. I just updated my iPhone and it linked my to my second iTunes account instead of my primary account. How can I change it back to my primary account?
Hey bjboles,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The article linked below describes what to do after changing your Apple ID, but you can use it as a guide to resolve the incorrect Apple ID account information entered issue that you described.

Can I have two Itunes accounts on one pc? One is on our PC now, and I have another on a portable back up. I hope I can.......thanks.
Yes, you can have multiple Apple IDs within one iTunes copy.
Note that all purchases will forever be tied to the Apple ID that was used to buy them. You will have to authorize the computer to the new library, as each device can be synced with just a single computer. -
