Can more than one apple id use apple tv

I have one computer I use my apple id and iTunes on, my husband uses an external hard rive connected to laptop for his id and our son uses the laptop with his id . We all have our own iTunes. We haven't quite got the hang if home sharing and I was thinking if buying Apple TV for hubby for birthday but want to know if me and my son will also beagle to use our apple id on Apple TV......there are 5 devices between us and 3 apple id's and 3 iTunes library's stored separately.....help.....confused!

Yes, simply sign into the ATV with each Apple ID.
The only caveat is when purchasing content on the ATV to be aware of which Apple ID is currently in use.

  • Can more than one apple id sign in on my tablet without deleting anything off

    Can more than one apple id sign in on my tablet without deleting anything off? Or does err1 hve 2 use ID while on my iPad?
    Message was edited by: RuEnvy35

    Another ID can be signed into on the iPad without losing anything, but it is not advisable to download purchased content with another ID, or you will lock yourself out of your own ID for 90 days.  Why don't you explain exactly why you want to sign in with another ID.

  • HT3819 can more than one apple ID use a apple TV?

    My wife an I both have our own Apple ID's and our own Macbooks.  How do we both access our apple TV?

    Welcome to the Apple community bpostin.
    You can share both libraries by both using the same ID for homesharing. Homesharing and iTunes can use different ID's.
    You can log in with both ID's at settings > iTunes Store with both ID's to make purchases and other account specific actions.

  • Can more than one delimiter be use at the same time for spreadsheet string to array

    I have a text header in my data file that is space delimited and the data in the file is tab delimited? Any suggestion?

    Sorry, I misread your problem...
    Is the header always of a fixed length in terms of the number of lines? Or can you easily find out from the file how long the header is? If so, you could first read just the header and, instead of using spreadsheet to array function, you could parse the header yourself by using the match string function in a While loop with the search value:
    [\s\t]+
    Assuming slash codes are enabled, this string will match any string of one or more spaces or tabs.
    You could then read the rest of the file and format it using spreadsheet to array with the tab delimiter (that is constant, correct?).
    If you need help with that parsing loop let me know and I'll write one for you...

  • Can more than one Ipod be used one one computer?

    My sister and I share a computer and each have an Ipod. I have a 30GB and she has a 2GB and we're having problems using the same Itunes. Is there a way for us both to use the same Itunes on the same computer, or do we have to use separate computers to have separate playlists? Thanks.

  • Can I use more than one Apple ID on one device

    I have seen some answers to this type of question before but not that since the ios 6 so will ask again. My household shares an Apple ID and it has worked great as we have added devices and purchased apps.  My problem now is this, we have hit a point where I have work things on my iPad and iPhone that I really don't need to be shared with the whole family but it isn't a major deal or security risk. I don't want to give up the advantages of having the household ID.  Is there an easy way to have another ID on my iPad and switch between them without having major complications?  I am for the most part a techie so not afraid of these kind of things but I can't afford to lose everything right now and take the time to set it all back up so getting advice here.  Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

    You can use more than one apple id, but keep in mind that when apps need updating that you'll will need to sign in with correct credentials to update them.
    Share an apple id for the itunes and app stores, but keep your own for icloud, facetime and messages.

  • Can I use more than one Apple ID for an Apple TV?

    I wanted to use more than one Apple ID account on my Apple TV, is that possible?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only use one ID for purchasing from the Apple TV, but you can stream content from multiple libraries even though they have different ID's

  • Can u use more than one apple account on your device and itunes

    Can u use more than one apple account on your device and itunes

    Yes, but you have to logout of one, and login to the other.
    If it is an iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch and you buy apps on different accounts, when it comes time to update an app, you have to specify the password for the account used to acquirer the app. You change an iOS account via Settings -> Store -> Apple ID (tap on it), and start by logging out and then you can enter the other Id
    So it is possible, but it can also be a pain.

  • How can I put more than one Apple ID on one device to receive iMessages?

    Can you have more than one apple id on a computer. We are going away and want to facetime from our macpro to the mac computer at home but both are registered under the same apple ID. What should we do ?

    I will share with you what I have done to manage this with my family.  While the solution isn't without flawes, it seems to do the trick.  First, you need to have one person who is managing the synching of everyone's devices.  In my family, I have three iphones, about to be four, and five ipads.  We all synch to the same apple ID to allow one another to take seemless advantage of our Itunes, which is on our Imac.  To synch individual music or video interests, we simply select which playlists we want and manually synch that way.  A couple of us use imatch and the cloud to make the entire library accessable as well.  With respect to the imessage, mail, contacts, etc. we each have a gmail account for our individual emails, contacts etc.  So for instance, my forth grade daughter has a gmail account that we choose to synch her contacts, calendar, etc to and then that is also the account where she receives her imessages from on her ipad and itouch. My son, who has an iphone and ipad, does the same thing, but under settings, he goes to imessage and checks his phone number and his email as his preferred way to receive imessages and texts.  My wife and I do the same thing.  To avoid having everyone see one anothers contracts etc, we only synch contacts from our individual email accounts.  Here is the downfall to this:  When you update your phone or add a new device, apple always wants to reset everyone's facetime and imessage settings and then low and behold we are all receiving imessages from one another's friends etc.  To work around this, I simply take each of their devices and go to their imessage settings and only check the email and phone numbers relative to their devices.  I dont' know is this is the best solution, but it seems to work for us. 

  • Can you have more than one apple id under the same account

    can you have more than one apple id under the same account

    Stop using the same Apple ID for iMessage on these devices.  Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (Receive At in iOS 5), tap the ID shown, sign out, then sign back in using a unique ID for each device.  (Or, just sign out and stop using your Apple ID for iMessage.)
