HT204053 how do I share calendars and music between two ID's?

How do I share calendars and music between two Apple ID's? We have a Mac Pro and two Iphones. Currently we utilize one ID between the Iphones in order to sync the calendars and music.

You can privately share a calendar between devices using different iCloud IDs as explained here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a8694. Even if your devices use different IDs for iCloud you can continue to share the same ID for iTunes to share your music and other purchased media. The ID you use on a device for iCloud does not need to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.

HT1373 how do i share apps and music between two itunes accounts

How do I share music from my itunes account with my daughter so she can put it on her ipad?

To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support articles linked below.

How do I share games and music with two kids ipod touch 4g and my iphone 4s

I have Iphone 4s and want to share paid games and music with both of my kids Ipod 4gen touchs. Don't have them set up with individual itunes accounts yet due to fact I don't want to pay for a game three times or a common liked song three times. New to this, please help?

As long as the other iPods are signed into the iTunes account that originally purchased apps, they can just redownload them again and not be charged. If in the USA you can also redownload them by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

How do i share apps and music between 2 of my apple ids?

I have a work apple id for my new iphone5, and a home one for all my other stuff !
I want to have my home music, films etc available on my iphone ?
any ideas

Hi Brett:
Congrats on your new purchase of a MacBook Pro!
The key to holding chats between 2 of your own mac's is having a seperate screen name for each of the mac's. You can sign-up for another .Mac account screen name that you are able to keep after the free trial, or you can sign-up for a free AIM screen name at: http://www.aim.com.
Once you have a seperate screen name for each of your macs, you'll be able to conduct a video chat between the two.
This should also be of some help: http://www.mvldesign.com/videoconferencetutorial.html

HT204053 how can i sync calendar and contacts between my iPhone and new Mac book pro?

I use an iPad and iPhone to maintain my schedule and contacts. I just purchased a Macbook Pro...how do I sync info on my other devices with my Macbook?
I have a current iCloud ID...
Would the info from the calander on the iPad automatically "push" to the Macbook, if i have everything configured properly?
Thanks

Yes,
you need to Sign Out of the wrong Apple ID - lower button in ICloud under system preferences.
Otherwise you cannot change the current Apple ID
Then you will be able to put a new apple ID and sign in.

Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

Hello there - how can I share my iTunes library between two users on the same computer? I put the library in a shared folder between both and have selected this library on both as well, but when I update iTunes with music etc it only appears on one?

Thank you Joe - I tried this but it's only showing a teensy amount of music - the stuff on the second users account as opposed to the giagntic library on the 'main' account. I actually went to a Genius Bar and they said that apple doesn't really want you to share music between accounts - parents don't want to hear their kids music etc. Which seemed strange, but it might be the case sadly Thanks anyway!

How do I share a keychain list between two shared Lion computers

How do I share a keychain list between two Lion computers; my wife's MacBookPro and my MacPro. We have Airport.

See answer below. (Note: this is not a question about iTunes Home Sharing so it should have been asked in the Mac OS X Lion forums.)
For security reasons you can't share keychains like that since each user's keychain is encrypted and protected by the user's password. Sorry, there is no convenient way to share Keychains.
Now, that being said, the Keychain file is stored in the following directory, ~/Library/Keychains/, and called 'login.keychain. You could conceivably use file sharing, or some other method, to send your 'login.keychain' file to your wife's computer and she could conceivably use the 'Add Keychain…' command to add your keychain to her Keychain app but I think it gets messy doing that. Also, she would need to know your password to access that file but, between spouses, that may be a non-issue.

How do I share one itunes account between two users on the same computer

How do I share one itunes account between two users on the same computer without taking up twice as much space on my hard drive?

You would need to move the itunes folder to a location that both users have permissions to access such as the Shared folder or any folder on the root level of the macintosh HD.
You can find instructions here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1203 This method allows you to share the content without sharing the same library.

How do I Sync my itunes music between two different computers

Can anyone tell me the step-by-step instructions for how to Sync my itunes music between two different computer.... one Mac at work and a second at home. I want to bring over all my work music onto my home Mac, some of which is the same but much of it is different.

Are you able to connect the two computers in any way? For instance is the work computer a laptop that you can bring home and network with your personal one? If the two devices are connected in some away there are a few utilities that can help you sync iTunes across different computers. You could begin your research by having a look at these for instance:
TuneRanger
SuperSync

Using the same photos and music between two user accounts in the same Mac

Hi,
I think this question might have already been asked in the forum.
1. I have one MacBook Pro and two user accounts (One for me and one for my wife)
2. We are having two seperate iPhones with seperate AppleIDs
3. We want to maintain the apps / calendar / mail / reminders / contacts as seperate - Through iCloud (Seperate Apple ID approach) - All this is fine
4. All we want to have it shared is the Music files and the Photo library without duplicating
I have tried the shared folder approach for the music and having the iTunes point to that directory for the libary location in the preferences but unfortunately if she adds a folder to the library mine does not get updated unless I do a add folder to library and vice versa.
Whats the best way to deal with the Photos / Music sharing between two user accounts on the same mac
Thanks
Shas

How can I share my itunes libraries between two users on different log ins on the same PC?

Ive recently bought my wife and iPhone 4, and we have a shared library. But she clearly downloads her own apps and music choices direct from the store to her phone, so wants to maintain her own log in etc. How can I share the library in my iTunes on my log in on the same PC to her iTunes on her log I'm on the same PC. its windows Xp machine with latest itunes version.
Ive followed the online instructions for sharing thus far, and the share library does not appear in either iTunes. ie It aint working!
Thanks in advance

When you say you have a shared library... you mean you have a networked external hard drive that you are sharing?
In iTunes, generally...when the term Shared Library is used, it's speaking to sharing a specific computer's library over the network with different computer.
I would think it would be better to do what ya'll have been doing (one log in acct/one computer) and have her create her own Apple acct and each of you log in and out whenever purchasing music apps etc. and then setup individual playlists and pick specific playlists to sync with each individual iPhone.
If you don't want each other to know what you're buying then...disregard what I just said

How best to share Numbers spreadsheet usage between two networked Macs?

I have never really shared files between two users as my wife always had a Windows computer. She recently purchased an iMac and now has Numbers, so we are interested in sharing access to a couple of spreadsheets for household management. I have racked my brain trying to figure out how to share a file like this, expecting to show her how easy it is on a Mac, but so far I am making it look as difficult to figure out as it was for her on a windows network. Needless to say she is not very impressed with me or with file sharing on a Mac!
I have a iWork numbers spreadsheet I wantto share between myself on my iMac and my wife on her iMac on our local/home network. I tried keeping the file in my Public Folder but that apparently is not designed to allow my wife to make changes to and re-save back to the same location in my public folder.
So how else can I set this up to allow both my wife and I to acess (at different times, not simultaneously) the file, make changes, and save it back to the same location? I have a family MobileMe account as well as the local networked iMacs, if that is a possible solution.
I have heard some people talk about the 3rd party tool called DropBox, but I would like to keep to a local/Apple solution if this is possible with Apple hardware/software.
Thanks in advance to all you gurus for whom this is an easy fix.

Share the document via DropBox and discuss changes via iwork.com comments.
Neat idea; I'll check that out later this evening, thanks for the help here.
For sharing the file it seems there are two preferred methods:
1. create a file sharing local user account to host the share documents entirely on a local network. Pros: not routed through the internet. Cons: requires entering a user name and password for access. *(Can Keychain remember the shared account login credentials and enter this for you automatically to make this process even easier?)*
2. Use a dropbox account. Pros: no need to enter login credentials each time. Cons: requires internet access to upload and distribute changes.
Any other issues to consider between the two options?

Can I share contacts and notes between two iCloud accounts without sending every contact/note?

My wife and I have been sharing my iCloud account which is very convenient because we automatically get the same calendar, contacts and notes on our devices. If I were to put her on a separate iCloud account, can we automatically share our contacts and notes without having to send every single one every time a change is made? I understand that the calendars can be shared fairly easily with family sharing but the others may be more problematic.

David,
Thanks for the reply. That's how I set it up originally. Although the new iOS 7 update lost some functionality. I found the following on the TUAW website. The Safari Bookmarks and Find My Phone options have been removed from the secondary iCloud accounts options. This is the problem. Everything worked great before we updated. I guess "new way" consolidates the iCloud accounts better with Maverick? Now I will have extra documents on my phone that I don't need. We will both have to share the same iCloud storage and backup space too. Have to try it out and see how it works. Thanks.
