HT4436 My daughter has an iPod touch which has been set up under my apple ID. I want to change this so that she doesn't receive messages and FaceTime calls from my fiends and vice versa. I have set her up an apple ID with iCloud but the settings still sho

I need help setting up my daughters iPod. She has been using her iPod touch for 6 months using my ID. This caused a problem now that she is a bit more savvy and has learnt to message and FaceTime. I get her calls and she gets mine. I have set her up her own ID with iCloud but when I go to settings for FaceTime and messaging I can't erase my ID. So the problem is not really solved. She will have to access iTunes through me as she doesn't know my password and any games etc have to pass the mummy test. Can anyone help?

Thanks.  I have my iPad on my lap and her iPod in my hand. We can FaceTime each other but it won't let either of us message each other. I know mine is activated as I use it frequently. I have activated hers as well. Maybe I will put it in the too hard basket for tonight, sleep on it and try again tomorrow.

  • How can I sync my iPhone contacts to my Mac and vice-versa, without losing them? Can i do it with iCloud?

    I always add new phone numbers on my iPhone Contacts, while new email addresses are always added on my Mac Contacts. The result is that I dont have my recent email contacts on my phone, while on the Mac I dont have the recent phones.
    I would like to have ONE common list of contacts (same for iPhone & Mac) which will be AUTOMATICALLY updated for both, once I add a new entry.
    I am not sure how to do this with syncing, I am afraid I wll lose my old contacts. Can I do this with iCloud?

    Hello there, Seta.
    You are correct that this can be done with iCloud. The following Knowledge Base article provides some great instruction for syncing contacts:
    iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1296
    Particularly:
    Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, and Notes
    You can sync contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and notes with other applications on your computer. This allows you to keep all your information in sync across multiple computers and iOS devices. The settings for these items are all in the Info tab for your iOS device in iTunes. With your iOS device connected to the computer, select your iOS device. Then click the Info tab.
    For details on syncing content on your iOS device with your computer, click the sections below.
    Contacts
    To sync contacts with your computer, choose "Sync Contacts with" within iTunes for Windows, or "Sync Contacts" in OS X v10.8, or "Sync Address Book Contacts" in OS X v10.7 and earlier.
    You can sync your contacts with:
    Microsoft Outlook 2003, Microsoft Outlook 2007, Microsoft Outlook 2010 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8)
    Windows Address Book (Windows XP)
    Windows Contacts (Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8)
    Address Book (Mac OS X v10.7 and earlier)
    Contacts (Mac OS X v10.8)
    Microsoft Entourage 2004, Microsoft Entourage 2008, or Microsoft Outlook 2011 for Mac
    Notes:
    When syncing contacts, you can choose to sync all of your contacts or only selected groups. The option to sync selected items may not show up until after the first sync.
    You can select a group of contacts to which all new contacts created on your iOS device will be added.
    Additional options for syncing include syncing your contacts with Yahoo or Gmail/Google Mail. You will need to configure it with the user name and password for your Yahoo or Google account.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • My IPOD Classic Video 5. Gen. showed videos, but now it does no longer show them, instead i see a black picture on my IPOD and it doesn`t work. I have to restart it every time, i try it. i restore the software with itunes, but the problem still exists.

    The Videos are showed up front 4 months, but now they are no longer to be seen. When you star a video first the hard drive starts, but then it stops and hangs up. I have to restart it, starting with the apple logo....

    Here is what worked for me:
      My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

    Hi I have itunes UK on my lap top and my daughter has been bought an Itunes USA gift card how can I use this please?

    Gift cards can only be used in the country in which they are purchased - so in order to use a US gift card you would need to have a US iTunes account.

    Hi, my daughter is using one of our old iphone's as an ipod (no phone service) It's listed under my apple id. when we downloaded the new updates, she started getting ALL of my incoming and outgoing text. How do I change this, without clearing her phone and loosing all her songs/etc....?

    I did this on my phone. Her phone isn't activated, no cellular service. So, for whatever reason it won't even let me tap on SEND& RECEIVE, to uncheck anything

  • HT201317 How do i remove photo stream from my windows 7 pc? I have not given permission for it to be enabled, but the icon and text still exists in 'computer'.

    Please how?
    Ps i object to posting this in a forum, i apologise to other forum users. This is what apple support requires me to do.poor job apple

    I had already done that before giving him the phone.  I left iTunes Match on it because in my mind, he would have access to his music and more.  I guess he did not like the clutter form having the entire music to have to browse through.
    In any case, I fixed the problem by doing a factory reset and restore from backup.
    I should not need to do that .. but that got rid of the iTunes Match from the device.

  • I changed my Apple ID last night but the iPad still has the old one and won't take the new password either.

    How the heck do I get my iPad to take the new Id?  I can't dowload anything or update anything.  I thought when I changed it and my password last night that the iPad would be set up with the new info.

    No, it does not change automatically. For starters, go to Settings> iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Sign out of the old ID and sign in with the changed ID. That will allow you to start downloading content and updating apps again.
    You need to change the ID for all Apple Services that you use. Read this for more.

  • I'm trying to back my phone with iCloud but the message "you can not delete your icloud account because your iPhone is being restored" appears under storage and back up then when I click on storage and back up the icloud back up is grey so I can't clickit

    Need help with backing up on icloud. It's just grey the and can't click it.

    Sorry, I was gone for a while.  The reason I asked is that many employers will push a restriction to the phone to prevent it from backing up to iCloud.
    The only time I've seen this before it was the result of a server issue at Apple's end, and would normally clear up on it's own in 3-5 days.  If you can't wait, you'll probably have to contact Apple support for help with this: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.

  • We have two iphone in our house.  When I plug in my phone, my number shows up but it syns with my daughter's phone.  How can I change this so that I can save my stuff and not hers.

    We have two iphones in our house and they are both on the same itunes account.  When I plug in my phone, my number shows up but it syncs giving me the music and contacts from the other phone.  Is it possible to have itunes just see the stuff from my phone when I plug it in.  I have had to create a new contacts list and I want to store it in itunes because this phone is a back-up phone.  My regular iphone is being repaired.  When I get back the phone from repairs, I want to be able to sync it so that itunes sees my contacts and not my daughters stuff.   Is this possible?

  • My iphone/itunes just did the complete new update with Icloud but the icloud icon doesn't show up anywhere on the iphone or my computer even though the install said it is all done and complete.

    The Itunes and Iphone just did the complete new update addiing on Icloud and new applications.  After all was done and it said all was completed - the Icloud icon is not on my iphone screen anywhere nor is it on my computer after I did go to the control panel and set up.   I tried repairing the download and it said all was fine.  What needs to be done to get this all to work.

    Hi there,
    Thanks for the reply.  I did think that could be the case but then other books would also show up as apps on phone but not counted as an app.  Maybe book apps downloaded from the app store work in this way whereas books bought from the ibooks app show in ibooks and not as apps.
    I guess that would make sense, it must be because they are books but downloaded from the app store rather than the book store so they are visible as an app but don't actually get counted as an app.
    Would you think that's the case too?
    Thanks
    Adam

  • HT4847 my daughter and i logged onto same icloud and now i can see messages sent to her and vice versa.. how can i fix this?

    my daughter and i logged onto same icloud and now i can see her messages and vice versa.. how can i fix this?

    This isn't being caused by your iCloud account.  It's caused by using use the same Apple ID for iMessage.  To fix this you have two choices:
    On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID (so both phones are using a different ID for iMessage).  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
    On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".  Also uncheck anyone else's phone number, if present.

  • My family and I share the same account of apple. I'm getting phone calls and messages from my mothers and my number and  vice versa. is there anything we can do

    my family and I share the same account of apple. I'm getting phone calls and messages from my mothers and my number and  vice versa. is there anything we can do

    The short solution is to go to Settings > FaceTime > iPhone Cellular Calls OFF.
    However, as Csound points out, you should not really be sharing an Apple ID with anyone. See: How to Stop Sharing an Apple ID.
