The short answer is because that is the way Apple has implemented the syncing algorithm. You can only sync from one computer at a time and those libraries cannot be merged. This ids a user-to-user forum. No one here (with VERY limited exceptions) works for Apple. We cannot answer WHY questions. If you still need help, contact Apple Support.


The only workaround I can think of is to copy the library on your friend's computer to a flash drive (for example) and then import it to your computer.
