Is there any way to combine multiple Apple IDs for the same individual?

I have two Apple IDs, one of which has a .mac email address. Both have the same name and physical address. With the new iTunes and the coming iCloud, it would be convenient to combine the two for purchase history and access, app updates, etc.
How can I do this?

So far it seems you can't.
The only thing that becomes a problem would be purchase history I guess, but you can use Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer to share any purchases from one account to the other.

Is there any way to combine 2 seperate lines on the same account into a family plan?

My wife and I have our phones on the same account, but the Verizon Wireless salespeople signed her up as 4 separate lines instead of a family plan. I admit she was an easy mark for the salesperson, because she went in to get two smartphones and walked out with 3 smartphones and a home voip device. I was at work and wasn't expecting her to be taken advantage of in such a way, or I would have had her wait to join when we both had the time to do it together. Now we have a smartphone collecting dust in a drawer, and a home phone that only rings when telemarketers call.
Long story short, we are going to have to cancel two of the lines that we don't use, probably pay etf's, and all that fun stuff. If we are to keep Verizon, we will need to switch our lines from being separate services to a family plan or it just won't be worth keeping this carrier. 2gigs of data just simply isn't enough for us both, considering the family plans for 2 people that are comparably priced have 10gigs.
Has anyone here run into a similar situation? Any help you can give in fixing this would be greatly appreciated.

How are you on the same account if they are separate lines?
Were any of these lines on the Edge payment option?

Using Labview's System Exec.vi, is there any way to send multiple standard inputs to the same executeable console? Or is there a way using Labview to target the window for the executeable and send commands to it at will?

thanks

One suggestion is to write a batch (.bat) file that will call your executable. The batch file can contain all the standard inputs necessary to run the executable. Then, in LabVIEW, you can call the .bat file using the System Exec.vi.
As far as your second question, there is no slick way to do this LabVIEW. You would probably have to call Window API functions using the Call Library Function utility. There is a set of VI's that call some of the standard API functions but I don't think they have what you want.

HT1918 Is there a way to consolidate multiple Apple IDs into one if they are all issued to the same persons(s)?

No. Unfortunately, you can't combine Apple IDs togetehr, even if you own them all.

My family shares one apple id. Is there any way to make an apple id for each member of my family and have it all connected to the same credit card and have the same previous downloads open to download by signing in to each members personal apple id?

My family shares one apple id. Is there any way to make an apple id for each member of my family and have it all connected to the same credit card and have the same previous downloads open to download by signing in to each members personal apple id?

Hi cindy,
If you all have individual Apple IDs, then you would be able to dowload music from a shared iTunes library on a computer, but you would not be able to sign on each individual ID on an iOS device in order to download music purchased under the original Apple ID without a 90-day waiting period between sign-ons.
Here's what I mean:
If you were to sign on a new Apple ID on, say, an iPhone, and then were to purchase and download some music from iTunes, then you would have to wait 90 days before you could sign on the old Apple ID to that iPhone in order to download previously purchased material (and vice versa).
However, if all of the music purchased by that origjnal Apple ID is in an iTunes library on a shared computer, then you can hook up the device and selectively sync any music in that library to the device. You can also sign on any of the Apple IDs to that shared iTunes library and purchase music to be added to the library.
You would need to authorize the computer for each of the new Apple IDs.
Each of the Apple IDs would also be able to download that music purchased either by syncing to the iTunes library on the computer or by downloading it OTA on the device.
So, each Apple ID can download music, movies, etc. purchased with that Apple ID OTA to the device. Also each Apple ID can sync any music, movies, etc. that are in the iTunes library on the computer regardless of who purchased them.
The only other thing you would need to remember is that if an App needed to be updated, then the original Apple ID that was used to purchase that App would come up, and the password that goes with that Apple ID would be required to do the update.
Hope that helps,
GB

I have the app "viPlay" on my iPad and iPhone. Is there any way that it could be available for the Apple TV? I'd like to access my personal videos from my hard drive using the Apple TV through the 'viPlay' app.

Is there a way to display multiple iPad screens on the same television screen simultaneously?

Is there a way to display multiple iPad screens on the same television set concurrently? The idea is to let multiple individuals do something on their iPads in a timed window and then display the results of each iPad users answer concurrently on te same television.

Devices that display two, four, or even eight video signals on a single monitor are available in the video security market. Maybe you could find something there that would do what you want. A quick search on "security tv screen multiplexor" (without the quotes) yielded millions of pages; several on the first page looked promising if you don't mind composite video.

Can multiple apple IDs have the same billing address??

So yea is it possible for multiple or more than one apple IDs to have the same billing address, like those created for use by members restrictively within a specific family for example??

It is possible but no more than 3 different Apple IDs for the same credit card. If you need more than three (more members of the family or a small business with 4 or more people who need individual Apple IDs) you can use one or more iTunes gift cards instead of a regular credit or debit card.

How can i create multiple apple ids from the same mac

There seems to be a limit on how many apple ids can be created from the same cpu. Trying to create 100 apple ids for a client to use on ipads distributed to employees i found i could only create three or four before i got the message account cannot be created, contact itunes support. Had the same problem creating multiple itunes accounts through the App Store.

I found this discussion because I need to create dozens of Apple IDs for the faculty and staff of the school for which I'm the IT Director.
This is weak.
Apple, PLEASE upgrade the Apple ID system so it represents the current needs and paradigm.
What am I thinking, Apple (like Google) don't follow user discussion forums, except by accident when an employee sees something and is motivated enough to carry the water for users in need.

Is there any way to create an apple id for a minor child without a credit card

I only have debit cards. I have three VISA debit cards with CVVs but they are all linked to bank accounts. I don't have credit cards because I don't want the debt or interest rates associated with them. I have several apple devices at my house for myself and my son. We cut the cord on cable a while ago and only use apple TV boxes. With the TVs, iPads, iPhones, iMac, and Macbook Air all needing an apple id, we have far exceeded my five device limit. I feel as if I am being punished for my devotion to apple and it's products since I can't use half of them with my apple id and cannot create one for my son because of my fiscal responsibility. There must be a way around this. I'm not going to sign up for a credit card for the sole purpose of getting my son an apple id. Any suggestions?

For Family Sharing, why must I add a credit card to add a child? Please explain why my debit card, on file, isn't enough…

Is there any way I can get more fonts for the online photoshop?

I know that this might sound a bit silly since I'm getting the services for free, but I was just curious if there was a way I could get more fonts for the online version. Maybe I'd be better off with the full program. Just curious! (:

When you say online version, do you mean you are using the Creative Cloud trial?
Photoshop accesses fonts on your computer, so all you have to do is purchase or download free ones from a fonts website.
Here is a website with reasonably high quality free fonts: http://www.fontsquirrel.com/.
Good luck!

Is there a way to centrally manage Apple IDs for phones and iPads issued to employees?

This is more of a best practices queston I suppose. We are starting to issue more and more iPads and iPhones. As the IT Director I would like a way to centrally manage folks' Apple IDs so the company can purchase approved apps and control iCloud backup. It would be so much easier to have some sort of web interface or way to issue myself so I dont have people running around with their own Apple IDs an account on their company issued devices.
What are some tips for accomplishing this?

I did not even realize I had a problem here until I started using iCloud.
iCloud is a TOTAL MESS. Here is why:
1. I can no longer synch all my apps to my device. Only the ones bought with the Apple ID tied to my device. Unlike the desktop, it appears I can not sign off on my iPhone or iPad with one ID and then sign on again with another in order to be able to update them. I now have over 1 hundreds Apps that are orphened on my phone and iPad that I can no longer update!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The problem arose when I wanted to sign in my iPhone to iCloud. When I tried to do that it would not accept my original Apple ID so I had to use one that I think I was using with Mobile Me.
Until we can merge our Apple IDs, people with this issue will have a failed iCloud!!!!!
Something's wrong here. The Apple ID is unrelated to syncing. As I had stated earlier, I also have two IDs but have had no problem whatever syncing, including syncing over the air (which is really cool). My only problem is in updating apps. The iPod handles it automatically but, with my Mac, I need to log out of one account and into the other.
Perhaps we can address one part of your problem first. When the iPad detects that an app needs updating and and you're on the "wrong" ID, exactly what happens when you attempt to update the app?

Is there a way to rename multiple Itunes songs at the same time

Is there a fast way to rename multiple Itunes songs at once, instead of renaming one song inside Itunes at a time? For example; So I can select multiple songs at once and rename each songs Genre all at the same time? Without needing to rename song by song?
Casey Computer

You can click on multiple songs, and change info in the Get Info > Info screen. This applies to most fields EXCEPT Name. iTunes has never allowed the simultaneous change of Name of multiple songs, presumably on the grounds that it is usually an error to do so.
Regarding Genre, yes, this can be changed for multiple songs at once, using the Info tab of Get Info.

Is there a way to have multiple responders work on the same form?

I am creating a form that multiple people need to answer.
For example, I work on a team where multiple people need to complete their part of the checklist for one employee. Is there a way multiple people can work on a specific for that was already started??

Yes, they could with the save web form data feature. You can enable it by going to Options -> Save Web Form Data and check "Enable respondents to save progress". The catch is that once a respondent completes and saves his responses, the link to retrieve his form data will be sent to his email, he may forward over to next person who needs to continue to fill out the form.
