How do I Share music in itunes across devices with different itunes accounts

I have all my music (2000 tracks)in Itunes on my PC. None of this has been bought from Itunes store. I only ever buy cds and load them into itunes.


Now I want to transfer some of this music to my daughters ipad which has a different apple id. Is this possible?

Greetings wardfamily04!



I found this article outlining how to copy the iTunes library from one computer to the other named iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer here:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527?viewlocale=en_US



Specifically the External drive section.

It outlines how to copy the entire iTunes library but you only want some of the files to be transferred. When you get to step 2, rather than copy the entire iTunes library to the external drive, find the music you want within, and copy those files to an external drive.



When everything is copied to the external drive, plug that drive into the other computer and use this article iTunes: About the Add to Library, Import, and Convert functions:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1347. Specifically the Add to Library section to add the songs to that library.



Take care,

Sterling
