Why can i not use 1 macbook with 2 user profiles and 2 iTunes match accounts

Hi All,
It seems to me like a bizzare occurance that the Mac O/S caters for mulitple user profiles on one machine and iTunes allows for mulitple users to have seperate libraries on one machine but I cannot use one Mac for itunes Match.
My wife and I share the same mac, we have an iTunes account each and seperate music libraries but I cannot use her iTunes match as it will lock me out for 90 days on my iTunes match.
This is crazy? am i missing something.
Many thanks
Andrew

You are not missng anything.  That's the wy it is as explained here: 
Tunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627
You won't find an explanation as to why this restriction exists.  You can voice your feedback to Apple here:  http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html

  • Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?

    Please take the Mac to  Apple store to have it checked out.

    Why can I not use my gmail account calendar on my MAC, when I try to sync it, it says "secure connection cannot be established" Is there a setting I don't know about?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.

  • Why can I not use multi-touch gestures on my original iPad with iOS 5?

    Why can I not use multi-touch gestures on my original iPad with iOS 5?

    It would appear that apple has managed to p1ss off  alot of ipad one users in one fowl swoop, what makes it worse is that fact we were the early adoptors who got asked, why do you want a big iphone for? and then spent time showing people how good it was! actually promoting it for apple! and then to get this kick in the teeth is frustrating! i wish i had known about xcode before!
    however!
    keep sending feedback, i must have sent twenty yesterday and will keep sending them untill i get a reply from these idiots! and wont stop untill i do, the more feedback sheets we fill in the more they will have to listen, it takes less than a min, i just asking the same question! moaning on here wont do anything, feedback might
    also note they have changed the website now, but they have not changed the iOS5 spash screen :
    (•          AirPlay Mirroring for iPad 2 and iPhone 4S
              •          Multitasking Gestures for iPad
              ◦          Use four or five fingers to pinch to the Home Screen
              ◦          Swipe up to reveal the multitasking bar
              ◦          Swipe left or right to switch between apps)
    clearly they were planning on releasing this update to us, otherwise on the spalsh screen it would have stated ipad 2 only, note in the sentence above it states it CLEARLY makes a reference to ipad 2 for airplay, so, whatever the problem, they can fix it and they know it works!

    Why can you not use powernap with a custom order iMac with solid state?
    Find it quite ridiculous that a 3 year old mba supports it and not a new iMac

    Agreed.  Why wouldn't you want your Photostream updated while your iMac is sleeping?  I am bummed about this.

  • I have just upgraded my account why can i not use it, it keeps redirecting me

    I have just upgraded my account why can i not use it, it keeps redirecting me

    Hi;
    You upgraded your FormsCentral account?  Can you explain what you mean that you cannot use it, what is happening, when and where are you being redirected?  Did you use the same email address for the upgrade as you used to sign into this forum?  We see a lot of cases where users sign into FormsCentral with one email address but then use a different during the upgrade process.  Check and see if you have another email you might have used for the upgrade.
    Thanks,
    Josh

  • Why can I not use my PS CS6??

    All of a sudden today 14 Feb 15, when I try to use CS6 Photoshop, which I have owned and use for years, PS starts to come up, then deletes itself and Adobe Application Manage blocks me.
    It wants me to sign up for Creative Cloud and pay! Of course I get a 30 day "free" trial and the pop up says I can continue to use CS6 after the trial if I sign up and pay for Creative Suite? I don't want Creative Suite, I want to continue to use CS6, Photoshop and all the other Adobe applications for which I paid BIG BUCKS! What is going on? How can I get PS CS6 to work as it has for many years?
    Thanks, Rus

    gener7,
    Thanks for your concern. I addressed (fixed? worked around?) the problem
    by pulling the original CS6 install DVD. I un-installed CS6 from my
    MacBook, then re-installed (providing my product s/n of course) then
    suffering though the interminable Adobe update. After many hours of this
    recovery, all seems fine (at least for now).
    Regards, Rus

  • Why can I not use my Norton Toolbar... It is a very important item... If I can not run norton toolbar, then I do not want the new version of firefox.... How do I go back to my old version..

    Question
    Why can I not use my Norton Toolbar... It is a very important item... If I can not run norton toolbar, then I do not want the new version of firefox.... How do I go back to my old version..

    Norton has had over 5 months to work in their Firefox extensions, since the API's were locked for 4.0. Ask Norton why they pull this crap every time Mozilla releases a new version of Firefox. When Firefox 3.6 was released mid-January 2010, it took Norton until almost April to come up with a working version of their Firefox extensions.

    If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions.  The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download.
