Can a family have multiple iClouds, with 1 iTunes acct?

We are a family of 4 apple users. I want us to share the same iTunes acct with one way to purchase items, but I want us each to have our own iCloud login for backing up our devices. How can this be done? 
Also, would we be able to access or see each others i

Yes, in fact it's recommended that you have separate iCloud accounts.  You can have separate iCloud accounts and still share the same iTunes ID; it does not need to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.
To create separate iCloud accounts, each person should go to Settings>iCloud on their iOS device and sign in with a separate ID to create their account.  If they have multiple devices, then can create the account on one device, then go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with the same ID on their other devices.

  • Can one mac have multiple iCloud accounts?

    Hi, we have a family Mac, and everyone uses one Apple ID for iCloud and iTunes except for me. I want to get my Pages documents to sync with my phone iPad and the family mac, but the others in my family still need to use their iCloud account too.

    You can create separate user accounts and sign into your respective iCloud accounts within your user account.

  • Can the RV180W have multiple SSIDs with different security configurations?

    I am trying to configure the RV180W with a guest network and regular wireless network. The regular wireless network is just a bridge to the wired network, using WPA2-Pers for authentication. I built and enabled another wireless SSID, using a different VLAN and no authentication. I can get both SSIDs to function at the same time if I turn off security. Once I turn on Security, the regular one no longer functions.

    It is actually all in the manual:
    SEE: PDF MANUAL
    Page 63 of PDF and onwards
    Do note that you need to assign multiple VLAN per SSID. Check the manual it is there :D
    and based on the manual you need to enable multiple VLAN support: See page 34 of the manual: Configuring Virtual LAN (VLAN) Membership

  • Can I have multiple iPhones with unique back ups using one icloud account?

    Hello forum users,
    Can I have multiple iPhones with unique back ups using one icloud account?
    I would like to back up and restore 4 different iPhones, 1 iPad, a MacBook and 1 MacBook Pro using the same single iCloud account.
    If so, how is this done?
    Many thanks

    Sharing an iCloud account between two devices can be done without causing issues with iMessage and FaceTime, just go into Settings for each of these functions and designate separate points of contact (i.e. phone number only, or phone number and unique email address).  While that works, you'll then face the problem where a phone call to one iPhone will ring both if on the same Wi-Fi network -- but again, that can be avoided by changing each phone's settings.
    Rather than do all that, don't fight it -- use separate IDs for iCloud.  You can still use a common ID for iTunes purchases (the ID for purchases and iCloud do not have to be the same) or you can use Family Sharing to share purchases from a primary Apple account.

  • How can I access songs that have been uploaded to my iCloud with itunes Match on a different (work) PC?

    I have logged in with Itunes Match on my work PC, but after 'gathering information about itunes' Itunes Match says the maximum songs that can be uploaded that were not purchased in itunes is 25000 and iMatch stops. All I want to do is have access and the ability to download songs that iMatch has already uploaded to iCloud from my home PC.
    Please Help

    Place that first folder of photos that you synced to the iPad within the main folder of photos that you sync from and select them to sync again. You can place any number of subfolders within the main folder that you sync from and select those folders to sync. Just "tick"(select) the folders in the photos tab in iTunes.

  • HT204053 can i have multiple iCloud accounts with the same Apple id

    Can i have multiple iCloud accounts with the same Apple id

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No, your ID is essentially your account. You can have email aliases and you can have multiple accounts, but I don't think that's what you are asking.

  • Can I have multiple iCloud accounts?

    If I can have multiple iCloud accounts, where and how do I set the up?  I cannot find the option under the iCloud settings in system preferences.  I have a personal and two different work emails with calendars I would like to sync.

    I believe if you go to Mail, Contacts, Calendars you can set up another iCloud account, but I believe you can only sync data between one account at a time.
    You can set up two iCloud accounts separately for iCloud mail and syncing and another for iTunes Purchases, and Apple has an article out for this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895

  • HT1766 How can I have multiple iphones on itunes and prevent them from having the info from one ipone going to the other

    How can I have multiple iphones on itunes without them sharing contact info

    If contacts on each iPhone are being synced direct with the same supported address book app on the computer via the iTunes sync process, deselect Sync Contacts under the Info tab for the iPhones that you don't want synced with the same address book followed by a sync.
    If each iPhone is sharing the same Apple iCloud account with Contacts enabled for over the air syncing, each iPhone needs its own iCloud account.

  • How can I have multiple users on iTunes (in order to connect to a shared office iPad)?

    How can I have multiple users on iTunes (in order to connect to a shared office iPad)? Currently each of us has our own iTunes account, so I've made an "all office" Apple ID. However, I can't seem to get two different accounts (my personal and the office) to work on my machine. Even when I login as "the office", my personal library is still showing. Additionally, when I try to setup with a first-time use in iTunes, I get an error that I don't meet the minimum age requirement - no matter what birthdate I enter!

    The library exists regardless of which user is logged in.
    The only way around that is to create different user accounts on the computer.
    There is no way to have 20 unique iTunes users access a shared iTunes under a single login on the computer.

  • ITunes 11... I have multiple artists with the same album name... how do i have them show up as separate albums?

    I have itunes 11 with iTunes Match on 2 Macs and 2 ios devices... I know it all has bugs... but I have been ok.
    I am wondering how to show my library in the column browser view when I have multiple albums with the same names? I have noticed on my ipod in my car that an album titled "Christmas" plays and includes 2 different albums titled christmas... and in itunes it lists them both when not in the artwork view... (I primarily use the column browser to navigate my library.
    Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this/knows how to fix.
    Thanks!

    Various workarounds I can think of which basically involve playing around with tags.  See which meets your needs or come up with others:
    Give the albums slightly different names.  For example, "Greatest Hits" [ABBA]"
    Do the same but do it in the sort album field.
    Add a bogus disc number to different albums.  It may string them together still but at least they will be slightly grouped.

  • HT1349 I ordered iCloud with iTunes on my PC; now I have an iPad mini and want to sync the music

    First I added iCloud with iTunes on my PC because I wanted to save the music I had purchases; I had Vista; that PC died and am now on Windows 7; Then I purchased an iPad mini and today I tried to set up both so I could sync the music purchased on iPad mini and PC previously.
    However on the PC when I enter iCloud it does not have iTunes available; so I'm stuck and don't know where or how to get the music to sync between the two. It keeps asking for a serial number on the Apple product for the PC but that doesn't apply.
    As a newbee I'm grateful for any answers or clues where to go. Thanks, Janet

    Unless you backed up your iTunes library from the old computer and then copied it to the new computer, your iTunes library is gone now and you have to start all over again.
    I'm not sure what you mean about when you entered iCloud, iTunes isn't available. You will need to explain that a little better. iCloud allows you to download the music again to your computer or to your iPad as long as you use the same Apple ID that you used to purchase the music or any other iTunes content.
    Since you have a new computer and no longer have the iTunes library - or so it seems from what you are saying - you need to make the new computer your syncing computer. You might want to take a look at both of these user tips to see how you can do that.
