Simultaneously share iTunes on one multi-user Mac
Authored by: van2van2 on Dec 01, '05 07:38:41AM

Couple of questions.. Do you sync your iPods with the Sawtooth machine? Do you purchase music from the Music Store? If so, how do you manage that?
The bowling ball/airport express analogy is very funny!

Both iPods are synced on the Sawtooth. I log in on my account to sync my iPod and we log in on wife-to-be's account to sync hers. We purchase quite a lot of music from ITMS and it isn't a problem even though we have separate accounts. Her account has three computers authorized (her WinTel laptop, my PowerBook and the Sawtooth) as does mine. We can purchase songs on any of the machines and transfer them to the others without a problem.

How do you get all the music shared on the Sawtooth? I assume you don't have duplicate copies of all the music. I'd like my wife to have her own music library with her own ratings, playcount etc, but am unsure how to have both Mac accounts access the same set of music files without having iTunes move them around.
