Can you share apps between accounts when using the same PC

My wife and I have always shared my account. made it easy to purchase and share. Howeever, with iCloud etc its becoming increasingly obvious that seperate accounts might be needed.
Can you share apps you purchase through differnt accounts when your using the same computer?
I now you can with music.

Yes.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
You can figure out using it with another machine from that too

  • On your imac can you share documents between accounts?

    on your imac can you share documents between accounts? If I work on a Pages document can another account see that document and ber able to work on it?

    If you want to copy the file between users you can use the Public folder in your home directories. If you put something in the Public folder other users can see it and copy it out if they want to send something to you they can copy it into your Public/Drop Box folder.
    If you both want to be able to work on the same document you could use the /Users/Shared folder which is read/write for all users.

  • HT5624 My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    My husband and I share an Itunes account so use the same email address and password.  Our iphones are now connected and we get each other's messages and share each other's contacts.  How can we stop this happening?

    A couple of different approached:
    Create a second AppleID for one of you that includes the email address and phone number you wish to use for messaging, but do not apply it to the iTunes and app store (just keep the current one). My wife and I do this and it works quite well. Also allows for easier syncing of Contacts , notes etc. using icloud if you wish to do that.
    Add additional emails/phone numbers to the existing account and change the Send/Receive settings for Messages. this will not fix the Contcts isues for you however.

  • Silly question, but can you share apps between family members (iPhone)?

    My wife has just purchased an iPhone awaiting del.
    Question

    I would think not as I cannot seem to find anything to suggest it.
    But thought i would ask the community.
    and is there away around it?????????? 
    thanks again

    EDIT: It seems Apple have changed the AppStore Terms and Conditions since I last read them thoroughly.
    Here's the relevant sections:
    If you are an individual acting in your personal capacity, you may download and sync an App Store Product for personal, noncommercial use on any iOS Device you own or control.
    You may auto-download iTunes Auto-Delivery Content or download previously-purchased iTunes Eligible Content from an Account on up to 10 Associated Devices, provided no more than 5 are iTunes-authorized computers.
    (ii) An Associated Device can be associated with only one Account at any given time.
    (iii) You may switch an Associated Device to a different Account only once every 90 days.
    (iv) You may download previously-purchased free content onto an unlimited number of devices while it is free on the iTunes Service, but on no more than 5 iTunes-authorized computers.

  • Can you print on an iPad mini using the same wireless printer that works with my iPhone5 or do you have to a specifically AirPrint capable printer?

    Printing on iPad mini compared to iphone5

    If you are printing from an iPhone the printer most likely already AirPrint capable.  So it should work directly.
    Alternatively, if you are using an App on your iPhone to print to it. You should be able to use the same App on your iPad.

  • How can i share tones between different iPhones on the same account

    I have two iPhones registered on the same iTunes account - one for work and one personal. I have bought a couple of ringtones through iTunes but find that I cannot see them in the iTunes library so cannot load a ringtone from one of my iPhones to the other. Any suggestion on how I can do this ?

    You will have to transfer the ringtones from the phone that has them to your iTunes library.

    Then you can sync them to the other phone.

    Make a backup!
    i had music there for over 6 years.
    Well you must have updated iTunes once or twice in that time. Do you have some sort of "tidying" app that is supposed to clean "unnecessary" files. If so perhaps it is too aggressive.

  • HT4722 Hi do I buy a second licence of Compressor on the app store so I can share processing. Want to use the same itunes account.

    Hi do I buy a second licence of Compressor on the app store so I can share processing. Want to use the same itunes account.

    If you're referring to distributed processing on multiple computers and if they're yours, you don't need another license. Just sign in with your account info and download C4 to the other computer.
    If that is not what ypu're referring to, please give a more complete description and perhaps someone can steer you in the right direction.
    Good luck.

  • How can i share apps between iphone

    how can i share apps between iphones?

    If they are syncing to the same iTunes library you can just sync them to the other phone using iTunes.  (However, if the other phone has been syncing to a different computer/iTunes library don't do this or you will create problems as iTunes will delete all iTunes media off the phone and replace it with the media in the new library when you sync.)
