Can my wife and I share iCloud on common iPad?

My wife and I both have I Phones (3g). I have a new Macbook Pro and she has a 4 year old Macbook. We have a new I Pad.
Can we share contacts, tunes, calendars, etc in the I Pad via I Cloud?

Not sure this helps in your case, but worth a look perhaps:

    If you each have separate iCloud accounts with different IDs, you can add the other person's account to your device(s) by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and signing in with their ID.  These "secondary accounts" will sync mail, contacts, calendars, reminders and notes.

  • HT5621 can my wife and I share iBooks using one of our apple accounts?

    My wife and I each have an iPad and an iPhone. She has a Macbook Air I have a Macbook Pro wth retina display. I also have an iPad mini retina.
    Is there a way we can share books bought through iBooks even though we have different Apple accounts? I have Mavericks and she is going to update to it on our Macs.

  • Can my Wife and I share an iPad?

    My Wife and I both have an iPhone 4, and have our own set of Apps, E-mail, photos music, etc. We have pre-ordered the New iPad. My question is - can we use multiple accounts on the same iPad - or does it have to be either/or?
    More specifically, the only thing I'd like to have shared is our photos - can I set up the iPad so that pictures from both our photostreams appear on the one iPad?
    Thanks!

    re: Sharing...
    I can't speak to what is different with iOS 5 and iCloud because we're still on 4.3.4, but I'll soon update to 5.1, since it fixes some concerns we had with 5.0 and 5.0.1. (And I want to get the new iPhoto app!)
    We have a 64GB iPad 2 WiFi-only.
    My wife and I 'share' an iPad in this way:
    My wife has always been 'PC-averse'. She hated using Windows and MS Office at work. She recently retired, and needed 'something' to send and receive email and occasionally browse the web, and shop online.  A netbook would have sufficed, but still had Windows. The iPad 2 is perfect for her, because it is 'instant on' in standby with a smart cover, has huge battery life for her occasional use (she checks email once a day, and we charge it every couple of weeks), and still has lots of functionality, (and free apps for me to play with!) well beyond her basic needs.
    Email:
    She retrieves all her email exclusively on her iPad.
    I get all my email on my MacBook.
    Apps:
    You do not need to sign-in/sign-out to use the Apps you've downloaded.
    All apps are available to everyone, but...
    we don't usually use social networking apps on the iPad, and I did notice that the Twitter free app stays 'signed-in' all the time, if you let it.
    AND... Update requires signing out of one Apple ID and signing-in with the other Apple ID in order to update ALL the Apps. It's not difficult. If you're in one Apple ID and Update requires the other Apple ID, you are simply shown the Apple ID that 'purchased' the App, and prompted for that password.  If you cancel, you can let the other person do 'update' when they're signed in.
    My wife uses almost exclusively 'Home Page' apps: Mail, Maps, Safari, IMDB, WeatherBug, a Bible app, and iPod (Music Player).
    I've downloaded apps I'm interested in and put them in folders on additional Apps pages, separate from the 'Home page' that she uses. My apps are a few games, almost 100 photo apps, a few music apps, and one magazine app subscription that was free with a print subscription.
    Music, Video, podcasts
    All the music on the iPad are her songs. We've downloaded a few free TV episodes, but don't rent or buy movies on the iPad.
    All my music and podcasts are on my MacBook exclusively.
    Photos:
    I shoot most photos with a Canon point & shoot and upload everything to my MacBook iPhoto.
    I upload family event photos directly from the SD memory cards to her iPad 2 with the camera connection kit. I've used the built-in iPad cameras to 'play' with the photo apps I've downloaded, and occasionally I manipulate some of the Canon images. If I want a copy of one or two back on my Mac, I email them from the iPad.
    Backup/Sync:
    Since we're still on iOS 4, backup and sync are done on two user identities on my MacBook, rather than iCloud. Neither account is set to automatically sync. I do only manual backups on both accounts.
    Problems?
    Not really. It took a while to 'grow' organically into this arrangement. Once I accidentally synced to my account, and all the apps I had downloaded moved out of the folders I had created, so I had to re-create and re-arrange them. Time consuming, but no apps or data was lost.

  • Can my wife and I share audiobooks?

    My wife and I have separate iTunes accounts but wish to share some audiobooks.  Can I download an audiobook from my wife's iTunes account (she uses an iPad) to my iPhone 5S?  It would seem appropriate to be able to synch to a different device and choose only the content wanted.  Is this correct?

    Family share is a feature of iOS 8.

  • Can my wife and i share music and apps if we are synced to the same computer but have different apple id's?

    I recently authorized my iphone to my wife's imac and synced them so we could share music and apps. Can we both still use separate apple id's to purchase apps and music and still share them?

    Unfortunately, apps and music purchased under one Apple ID cannot be shared with a device on a different Apple ID.
    Sorry Kappy, not quite true:
    Here's how to do so using different computers:
    Transfer what content you want to the separate iTunes library on each computer. To transfer content from your library to your wife's library so that she can use it on her phone or from your wife's library to your library, do this:
    1. Launch iTunes under your wife's login.
    2. Sign her out of iTunes & then you sign in.
    3. iTunes>Preferences>Devices>Disable auto-sync when an iPod/iPhone is connected.
    4. Connect your phone, DO NOT SYNC!
    5. Store>Authorize this Computer(only have to do this once).
    6. File Transfer Purchases(all of the purchased content on your phone will be transferred to your wife's library).
    7. When complete, eject your phone, sign out of iTunes, sign your wife back in.
    You can now sync whatever content you want to your wife's phone. Just remember, all updates to apps obtained using your account must be done while signed in using your account: sign wife out, you sign in, update apps, you sign out, sign wife in, sync her phone.
    This way you can share content(permitted under the EUSLA) and still maintain your separate logins. Do the same on your computer if you want to share content from your wife's library.
    Just load whatever content you want to share on each others phones, transfer the content, then delete it from the respective phone if you don't want to keep it there.

  • Can my wife and I share music?

    MY wife and I have different apple ID's, one mac with one user profile (dont want to make things messy). We were told she should get her own ID when she got an iphone to imessage and facetime will work. But now I cant figure out to get music shes purchased onto my iphone. We also obviously want to use the same icloud and match for our apple TV. How is it possible to make this work?

  • Can my wife and I share when we have separate Apple IDs

    My wife and I have seperate Apple IDs for our Macs and iPhones. We now have a couple Apple TVs and we are trying to sort out the best way to setup so we can see each of our content from iCloud and also to watch moves, play music from whatever of our accounts we purchased.
    It is totally confusing and not intuitive how best to do this. Does anyone have a best practice.
    My in-laws just use one Apple ID for everything but that doesn't work for us as we consume too much content and I don't always want to see what Apple my wife buys, etc.
    Also, between the 2 of us and our daughter. we have 3 Macbooks, 3 iPhones, 3, iPads and iPod and 2 Apple TV's. Is seems like Apple limits us to 5 devices. Clearly, we are good customers! Any advice anyone?

    There are two settings on the Apple TV that will interest you.
    Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID's.
    Here you can set up both your accounts and once both are set up you can use this option to switch between them. Switching your ID for the iTunes store will change the content in the movies, TV shows and music apps on the Apple TV.
    Settings > iCloud.
    Here you can log out of your Apple ID and into another one. Note this is not as convenient as being able two switch as above. Changing your ID for iCloud will change the photos in photo stream.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • Can my wife and I share iTunes accounts on different computers?

    My wife uses an Apple Airbook, I work on a desktop PC. I've had an iTunes account for a long time and we share music, etc. So can we share the same iTunes account from our different computers?

    No. iOS is not designed at this time for multiple account logins. You would be synching over the top of each other.

  • Can my wife and I share the same Apple ID on each of our iPhones?

    I'm trying to set hers up and now it's showing each of our contacts in the other's contacts list (in addition to our own).  Now I'm worried that we'd have the same apps and end up with each other's email if I proceed.  Can we have separate settings while sharing the same Apple ID??

    Actually he can.
    Sign into iCloud using husband and wife's individual unique apple id.
    But sign in iTunes store or App store or iBook store using a single apple id (be it husband's or wife's)... both iPhones can have the same media (ie, books, songs, videos, apps), but different iCloud account to manage different emails, find my iphone, iMessage, calendars, notes, reminders, etc...
    Just have to remember to sign out and sign in using different ID.
    iOS4.x.x does not support this, but iOS5 does.
    I am using 3 different Apple IDs to access Apps, iTunes and iCloud respectively.

  • How can my wife and I share our iTunes account?

    My wife has an iTunes account as do I, but we are ideally trying to combine them so that we have a central iTunes library that we can both pull from. Is this possible?  We are on Windows Vista platform outside of our apple products.
    We have 2 iPhones and several iPods.

    At this time, Apple IDs cannot be consolidated.

    a single iTunes can be authorized for up to 5 iTunes store accounts !

  • Can my wife and i share the same itunes account on different iphones?

    Hello everyone,
    My wife has had an iTunes account, Iphone, and Ipod for a while.  I just bought an Iphone and Ipod and would like to utilize her music library without messing up her phone or itunes account.  We'd like to maintain separate apps and stuff on our devices...so when I download music and apps, she doesn't want that showing up on her phone when she pairs it to her itunes account.  Can this be done?
    I have heard that I need to create my own Apple ID, which I have...so I can download my own apps...but will I have access to her itunes music if I do that?
    Thanks!
