Will music be available from old account if change to new account

For years, our whole family has shared one user account on the iTunes store (but used four computers) since we wanted to monitor what our young child listened to. Now that she is a bit older, we want to give her an account on her own.
The main question I have is whether the songs purchased using the old account will still play on her computer, or whether the switch in accounts impacts the DRM. I hope not.
Thanks in advance.

She will still be able to play material from the old account using that account's ID and password to authorize. A single computer can be authorized to up to five different iTunes Store accounts.

Trying to Import music i purchased from old account to new & can't remember old account info

Trying to Import music i purchased from old account to new & can't remember old account info nor does it exsist. what to do??? thanks

This isn't really an iTunes Match questions but I'll give it a shot.
Unfortunately, you must remember the username and password for that account. If you can't you won't be able to play that protected music. There's really no way around this.

HT5085 When will music be available from iTunes in the iCloud for my country?

Like it says on the tin.
I live in Norway, and just recently discovered the iTunes in the iCloud feature while moving stuff from one failing computer to the next. I've managed to salvage most of my purchased tracks thanks to the copies on my iPhone, but sadly some are irretrievably lost. At least until I can download them again - not too keen on buying them a second time though.
So: Can we hope to see this feature made available to our region in the near future?
-RU

Unfortunately that's the only answer anyone here can give you (to any question about Apple futures), and quite probably would be the only answer Apple themselves could give you were they to answer such questions publicly, as it involves negotiations that are almost certainly ongoing.
Regards.

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

I had an unauthorized purchase on my old apple ID so I created a new one since the old one had been deactivated and now I cannot update any of my apps, I have read that the apps will be tied to the old account but I do not want to delete/lose their data

I had an unauthorized purchase on my old apple ID so I created a new one since the old one had been deactivated and now I cannot update any of my apps, I have read that the apps will be tied to the old account but since the old one was deactivated I cant update them and I do not want to delete/lose their data, re download, and start all over again. Is there anyway to go around this issue?
thanks

Ask Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

I created a new library so I can use it for just my music, but now my ipod will only sync to my old library and not the new one I created, even though I'm in the new library when I open itunes. Any solutions?

I created a new library so I can use it for just my music, but now my ipod will only sync to my old library and not the new one I created, even though I'm in the new library when I open itunes. Any solutions?

The point is that there are four i product users for one computer in my house, and not everyone wants the same music on their device. Like I said before, the ipod is not syncing to the new library even though I plug it in when the new itunes library is pulled up. It keeps syncing to the old library...

I have most of my music stored on my old iphone. i bought a new I pad, and signed up with a new e mail adress as my old one is defunct. How do i change my e mail adress to the new one, because it keeps telling me apple id already in use.

You can change the primary email address on an account by logging into it via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com, or via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, or by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone and logging into it.
You won't be able to change it to an email address that is being used an alternate or rescue email address on the account (they can be viewed/changed/removed via http://appleid.apple.com), nor to one that is currently being used as the primary email address on an account

My wife just got the new macbook air. What cable do I need to copy music and photos from my 2007 macbook to the new macbook air?

my wife just got the new macbook air. What cable do I need to copy music and photos from my 2007 macbook to the new macbook air?

Try doing it without a cable!
Use AirDrop, described here:

UPDATE - Oh, sorry, I see the article points out the MacBook is too old for AirDrop.

Balance transfer from old recon a/c to new recon a/c

Hello
We have changed the vendor''s reconciliation account.....now we have to transfer the balance of open items....from old recon a/c to new one..........
....what is the best way to do this.......
regards

It says:
A balance sheet eadjustment distributes
receivables and payables in customer and vendor reconciliation accounts,
Account Determination
For each account, you can specify an adjustment account to post the readjustment to. Otherwise, the system posts the readjustment to the original account.
To distinguish readjustment postings from other postings, you should create separate adjustment accounts and have the readjustments posted to them.
Since reconciliation accounts cannot be posted to directly, you have to specify adjustment accounts for them.
Since readjustments are posted without tax, the accounts posted to cannot be relevant to tax.
Adjustment accounts are determined when calculating the distribution.
Can you please check the configuration in OBBW.
Define Adjustment Accounts for Changed Reconciliation Accoun
In this activity you define the numbers of the accounts for the automatic transfer postings which are made if the reconciliation accounts are changed. Postings are made to these accounts to sort the open items.
Sorting open items is necessary to be able to display the receivables and the payables according to the legal requirements for creating balance sheets.
Activities
1. Enter the required accounts.
2. Make sure that the accounts you enter are created.

Can I merge ical from old, non cloud Mac with new one?

Can I merge ical from old, non cloud Mac with new one?
I cannot sync from old G5 so if I backup that iCal, can I merge it with new iCal on my new Mac without losing new Mac calenday details?
Thanks.
Jeff

Jeff,
First, iCloud: How to back up iCloud data.
Next, use iCal>File>Export>Export...for the calendar that you want to use for the export. Move the .ics file to your new computer, and double click the file. You will be offered a choice of creating a new calendar in iCloud, or importing to an existing calendar. Make the appropriate choice for your circumstances.
