HT1766 I have some ringtones on my iPhone 5 and I want to get them on my new iPhone 5s. How do I get them? iTunes is trying to make me buy them again. I am using the same account and I didn't have this problems with any of my music. Help anyone ? :)
Is this a common question asked, or am I the only one have this problem?
Transfer them to your computer using File>Transfer Purchases in iTunes, then sync them to the new phone. You can not re-download ringtones like you can music.

I purchased an iphone for my daughter and we are using the same account and she deleted some contacts from her phone and they were deleted off of my contacts as well. Is there a way to use icloud backup to reinstall the contacts to my phone?
Welcome to the Apple community.
You can only restore them from a Computer backup. This has occurred because you are sharing an iCloud account. ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, that way you can each manage your own mail, contacts, calendars, documents etc and avoid unintentional deletions and unwanted editing. If there is information you wish to share between you, this can be done with a secondary account.
Having separate iCloud accounts, doesn't mean you have to have separate iTunes accounts, so whilst you keep your personal data separate, you can continue to share music, apps, books, TV shows, movies etc. -
I am updating iphoto 9.1 to 9.3 and every time when I clicked for update aps store asked to open it in the account where you purchased. I am using the same account and its available in the purchased item of this account. But in my purchased item library it indicates that you update iPhoto. I am not sure which account the aps store asking. Can someone resolve this problem.
Contact App Store support. They're the folks who can help with Account issues.

Why would my iTunes password not work for my iCloud password if I am using the same account?
I recently redownloaded "find my friends" to my iPhone, and tried to log in and couldn't. Now I use my iTunes account with the iCloud also, and I can't access my iCloud account either. My password has never changed for either services, my account ID was not changed or misspelled, and I shouldn't have any other accounts either. Silly me decided that I should to log out of my iCloud and log back in but it won't accept my password. Am I missing something some where along the way? I can still download apps with the password but why can't I log in to my iCloud account anymore? Can I have different passwords with the same account? If so how do I change one with out changing the other also?
As long as you can't spell I wouldn't worry about it.

We have some 3rd generations iPod touches that are note syncing with the computer we have. The original computer that the ipods was synced to is gone. We downloaded the itunes to the new computer and logged on as the same account and it won't sync the applications we have.
An iPod can pn;y sync wiht one iTunes kibrary and the new computer is a new iTunes library:
- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party probgram like one of those dicussed here:
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup -
I want to use the same account for all my apple devices (macbook air, imac and iphone). I can't see how I can amend the iphone account because it is in grey? I also can't remember the password for this account so i can't even delete it and start again?
Help!
ThanksDeleting an iCloud account only deletes it from the Device, not from iCloud. In iOS 8, the name of this setting changed to "Sign Out" as that is a better reflection of what actually happens. Your iCloud data remains on the server, available to devices still signed into the account, but the device you sign out of the account on is disconnected from the account, and as a result, the iCloud data from that account is removed from the device. It will redownload to the device should you sign back into the account.
The only issue you'll run into when you switch between accounts is with my photo stream photos older than 30 days. When you delete (or sign out of) and account, your photo stream photos are deleted along with the other data from the account in question. However, unlike other data which remains on the server and can redownload to your device when you sign back in, my photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days. When you sign back in, you will only get back my photo stream photos added in the last 30 days (as older photos are no longer in iCloud to redownload). Like other account data, any my photo stream photos on your other devices signed into the account are unaffected by this. If you want to keep older my photo stream photos on your device as you change iCloud accounts, save them to your camera roll before deleting (signing out of) the account. -
my daughter has a ipod touch now i need to add a ipod shuffle i have no idea how to get started can i use the same account i can't even figure out how to sync it HELP
yes you can have multiple devices on one account just not in the same library before you sync it create a new library by:
If you are using Windows, hold down the Shift key and from the Start menu and choose All Programs > iTunes > iTunes.
Then add the songs you want
THen yuo can sync sync it by plugging in the usb cord the computer then plug in the ipod to the cord that it came with -

My sister and I each have an ipod touch. We use the same computer and itunes but each have our own apple id. Everytime I want to update an app on my ipod it asks for my sisters apple id login!? help!
When it asks for another ID on an App Update, it means that the application was purchased under your sister's ID but downloaded to your device from the iTunes library that you share. Even though you both have your own Apple IDs, since you are syncing on the same computer, you are using the same iTunes library.
Whoever purchased the app is forever tied to it, and you can only have one version of a particular app in a single library....
Does that make sense?
Cheers,
