HT5538 How do you separate multiple iOS devices using the same apple id account for Face Time calls and iMessaging?

How do you separate multiiple ios devices using the same apple id account for Face Time calls and iMessaging?

The only way I have seen is to have each device use a if fervent email account, if they all are on the same email the FaceTime connection is either to a phone number or to an email address.  If they ar all on the same email, it is up to the user to decide which to use.

    1- I would like to have a set of 1 ipad and 1 iphone (mine) sharing the same contacts and calendar entries (synching from outlook)
    2- I would like to have another set of 1 ipad and 1 iphone (my wife's) sharing contacts and calendar entries but obviously these would be a different set of contacts and calendar entries than mine

    Thanks for your help
    Cheers

    Have your wife log in to her user account on the laptop. Launch iTunes, then connect her phone to the computer with the USB cable. Sync. That should put back all apps and media. Since you already upgraded her to iOS 5 she'll have to manually enter all her settings and preferences, and organize her home screens.

  • What happens on iCloud (ex. contacts) when multiple family members use the same Apple ID?

    What happens on iCloud when multiple family members use the same Apple ID?  For example if we all choose to use iCloud for contacts, are they all merged together?  We use the same Apple ID so we can use find my iPhone to keep track of the whole family.

    Of course if you are both connected to the same iCloud account you have the same contacts - what did you expect?. The contacts live on the server and are read from there by the devices; so as you've both managed to sync your contacts up to iCloud they are now inextricably mixed. You can only delete your contacts by deleting individual ones, and doing that will delete them from your phone as well.
    You can only unravel this by
    1. In the iCloud contacts page at http://icloud.com, select all the contacts, click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose 'Export vCard'.
    2. Sign out of System Preferences>iCloud
    3. Create a new Apple ID and open a new iCloud account with it for your own use.
    4. Import the vCard back into the iCloud contacts page.
    5. Go to http://icloud.com and sign in with the original ID. This is now his ID. Work through the contacts individually deleting the ones you don't want him to have. When done sign out and advise him to change his password.
    6. Go to the new iCloud account and delete his contacts individually.
    Of course if you have also been syncing calendars and using the same email address there are problems with doing this.

  • IPad2 and a new MacBook running Lion, Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my Hotmail Id for my Apple Id and use it for iTunes, iCloud

    I have an iPad2 and a new MacBook running Mountain Lion. Both Devices use the same Apple ID which is a Hotmail eMail id. Can I create a new iCloud eMail Id and use iCloud eMail and continue to use my current Hotmail Id for my Apple Id for iTunes, iCloud.
    Note, I will use both Hotmail and iCloud eMail.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

    How to sync 2 different Mac users using the same Apple ID and with out mixing each other info?
    We are two people using three difrent Macs, 1 Iphone and 1 Ipad with separate USERS  on each Mac but sharing the same Apple ID: xxxxxx

    Do we have to set up a diffrent Apple ID for each other?
    Sometime ago I added my friends E mail (yyyyy) to the main Apple ID (xxxx) as for using his E mail account (to separate our e mail accounts, and it's working ok) but now when I try to create a new apple ID whith the same friend's e mail (yyyyyy)  it says that his mail (yyyyy) is already an apple ID when the Apple ID is really my E mail (xxxxx)... any clue?
    Thanks

    I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
    Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
    Hope that helps

  • Can I have a Face Time conversation between two Apple devices using the same Apple ID?

    Can I have a Face Time conversation between two Apple devices using the same Apple ID?

    Yes, you can, but the two devices can't have the same e mail address associated with both.  Each, device needs its own unique e mail ADR.  In your case, the iPod can call your iPhone if you use the phone number, but the iPhone can not call your iPod because it must use the e mail address, and if the email address is the same on both, the iPhone will think it's calling itself, so the call will not go through.

  • How do I separate my daughters devices from my icloud but use the same apple itunes account?

    How can I separate my daughters icloud account but keep the same apple itunes account?

    To migrate her device to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos she keep to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If she is syncing any notes with iCloud that she wants to keep on her device, you'll need to open each of them and email them to her so she can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in her new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; your devices won't be effected by this), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload her data.  (If she has multiple devices, she can go through this same process on the others, but choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted as the data has now already been migrated to the new account.)
    Once you are both on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account if you need to.
    You can continue to share the same iTunes ID.  The ID used for iCloud does not need to be the same as the ID used for iTunes.

  • HT204053 how do i set up different devices on the same apple Id without merging the contacts from the separate phones

    can i set up multiple iphones on the cloud without merging all contacts?

    Not if they are all syncing contacts with the shared account.  You could allow them to merge, then create separate groups for each person's contacts on icloud.com.  Then each person can adjust their settings to only show the group that their contacts belong to and hide the rest.
    Another option is to keep the devices on the same shared primary account, and add different secondary account to each person's devices by going to Setings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and enter a separate ID.  Then each person can turn on contacts syncing in their secondary account and leave contacts syncing turned off in the shared primary account (in Settings>iCloud).

  • HT204380 If I have 3 devices using the same apple ID, can I FaceTime between them?

    As it says on the tin.
    2 x iPads and an iPhone all sharing the same Apple ID and icloud account.
    Can we FaceTime between the 3 devices? .....and how. Calls drop straightaway every time: user busy.

    Yes you can do it. I do it with 4 different devices all using the same Apple ID.
    You need to associate different email addresses for each device in order to use those email addresses as the "contact at" email address. The reason the calls are dropping on you now is that what you are trying to do is like calling yourself on your own phone.
    You can also create new iCloud accounts on each device simply to use for FaceTime, but I'm guessing that the users of the other two devices have their own email addresses which will make this work for you quite easily.
    Take a look at this for more information.

  • Question about multiple resource objects using the same OID target account

    In Oracle Identity Manager 11g with OID connector as a target system.
    Is it possible to create multiple resources that use the same OID IT Resource. Each resource is responsible for provisioning certain OID attributes of the same OID account. For example 'OID User' would provision the basic account and a separate resource called 'Department1 User' would provision attributes not provisioned by OID User.

    Yes, definitely. Here is how it would work:
    - You would have to make sure that the resource OID User always gets provisioned first, so that the account exist when these additional attributes are being set for the user via the other resource Department1 User. You can do this with Resource Dependency in OIM.
    - Now for using the same IT Resource, just create the new form and in the IT Resource type form field, map the properties to the same IT Resource Definition, so when the Provisioning Process gets invoked it uses the same IT Resource instead.
    Thanks
