ISyncing multiple accounts under one .Mac account

I have one 5 user .Mac account with three emails. I am syncing my account with email fine between 3 computers, iPod and cell phone.
I wanted to have my wife be able to sync her mail, address book, etc. under her account as well, but when I activated her account to sync, it seems that all the mail got lumped together under both accounts. We want to keep it separate between accounts, just synced separately.
Is it possible to do this? Thanks.

This is not possible if you wish to prevent each other from seeing the other's email? If you set both email account up in Mail, they will have separate Inboxes (seen by clicking on the small black triangle to expand to show each one), and if you enter the Gmail SMTP twice, taking care each time to give it a different name, and use each account respective email address to Authenticate it, then they will coexist nicely, but not with complete privacy.
Complete privacy is only available with separate User Accounts. In one User Account the underlying files could be read even if two Mail folders were allowed.

  • Can I have two private mail accounts under one Mac account?

    Hi. My wife and I share one MacBook Pro. We have one user account set up on the MacBook Pro (i.e., when we turn the computer on, we both use the same sign-on ID and password). We do not want to set up separate accounts.
    With this set-up, can we each have our own Mail account? We want to be able to use Mail to access our respective gmail accounts, each of which has its own separate password. We do not want to consolidate both gmail accounts into a single Mail account. Is this possible? Thank you

  • Multiple Schemas under one user account with XE 10g

    Hi,
    I am using (learning) XE 10g. I would like to know if it is possible to have multiple schemas under one user account and have the schemas logically separated. As of right now, I have three schemas that I am working with, each one under a different user account. This is inconvenient, because I have to logout of one user account and login to another user account simply to be able to work with another schema.
    Thanks

    It isn't possible to have multiple schemas under one database user account. It is of course possible to grant rights to other database users, and or roles, in order to allow access to the tables/data from other accounts. In Oracle there is a one-one mapping between schema and user.

  • Multiple users under one itunes account

    I have multiple mac's (both desktops and laptops) as well as multiple iphones and ipads at home.  I am limited in itunes to only 5 devices - what should i do?  set-up a different itunes account for my kids (but then they will not be able to access the music and movies that have already been purchased).
    Unsure how to best set-up 4 people (with each having an iphone, ipad and mac) itunes.
    Any suggestions?

    Ideally, each will have their own iTunes account.
    I am limited in itunes to only 5 devices
    Each iTunes account is limited to 5 computers but 10 devices.
    So you can have content from one iTunes account on 5 computers and also 5 iDevices.
    set-up a different itunes account for my kids (but then they will not be able to access the music and movies that have already been purchased).
    Yes, they will. Just authorize each computer for the other iTunes accounts.
    Make sure you go to iTunes prefs > Store and disable Automatic downloads.
    Also disable it on the iDevices in Settings > iTunes and App stores.
    You can share content between users/libraries by using Home Sharing.

  • Mail - Support for Multiple Identities (under one OS account).

    Let me define what I mean by an "Identity" before that is misunderstood.
    In Entourage, you can have multiple email accounts (just like in Apple Mail). However you can create multiple Identities, each of which only has access to that Identity's email accounts.
    For example, the Mac is operating using one User Account: lets call this account "Dave". Now while logged into this User account on the Mac, I can have an Entourage Identity called "Dave - Personal" that only has access to a group of personal email accounts. I can then (within Entourage) switch to an Identity called "Dave - Work" that would then only have access to my work email accounts.
    All the while, regardless of which Entourage Identity I am using, I am at all times still logged in to the Mac User account "Dave", so I have access to all of the same data (documents, etc.).
    Is there a way to have Apple Mail operate in the same manner?
    Before anyone asks why....
    I keep my work emails and my personal emails in different Identities, within the same Mac User account. I do not open up the work Identity (with the work-related email accounts) after 5 p.m. weekdays or during the entire weekend. (This way, I don't have to see or worry about work!) However, whether I am at work or at home, (or anywhere else) I still want to have access to all of the same data within my Mac User account. So, the solution that most people may recommend, which would be to create separate Mac user accounts for each Identity, doesn't really solve my problem.
    Does anyone know if this type of functionality can be had using Apple Mail? I am growing tired of Entourage, and this is one (of several) reasons I have still not switched to Apple Mail.

    In a word, No. To accomplish that you must create a separate user account. You can have multiple email accounts within Mail, however. But not as a separate identity as in Entourage.

  • How do display multiple accounts under one CalDav account?

    Hello - I have a google mail account, for which I use google calendar to organize both my and my wifes calendars. We share calendars, but she has a separate google account and calendar. Using iCal, both these calendars are subscribed using separate CalDav accounts. Using the calendar function on the iphone, I subscribe to both calendars separately as well, but the interface is different.
    Here's my question: I created a new calendar under my account, which I would like to share with certain people (call it 'Group cycling sessions.'). On iCal, under > Properties > 'delegation,' I can access the calendar, and by the way, access my wifes as well. However, I cannot figure out how to subscribe to this calendar on the iphone (short of using mobile me, which I am loathe to do).
    Any ideas?

    Google calendar colours are taken from the Google settings.
    If you have another account such as the calendar on your iPhone or the Birthday Calendar, each time they are removed and re-activated, the colour will cycle to the next one Apple has chosen

  • Multiple email accounts under one master

    I have 2 kids that would like email accounts. I would like the option of reading their email, if I need to. How do I set up multiple email accounts under one master account? Can it be set up so that their email cannot be deleted by them?
    Thank you in advance.

    You'll need a third party solution to monitor your children's email, etc. Anyone that can access an email account can create, read, and delete messages.
    Spector for Mac is one product I found on Google, that appears to do what you need. I'm sure others are available.
    Here's the search I used to find it.

  • Which is better having many Window User Accounts for the same person, so to have many Firefoxes or have many Firefoxes under one Windows Account User?

    Right now I have around 6 Window User Accounts (just for me on one computer) because I did not know that I could put more then one Firefox per account. I have to leave the tabs up when I close Firefox because if I just bookmark them I wont finish my work I was doing with those sites. Now that I know how to put multiple Firefoxes under one user account. Which would make my computer fast or does it not matter, if I put all my Firefoxes on one Window user account or have 6 Window user accounts, each with their own Firefox?
    -Thanks

    It is more work to switch to another Windows account then to open another Firefox instance with another profile.
    If you only use the other windows accounts for using Firefox that way and not for other purposes then there is nothing against switching to only one Windows account to make it easier to manage things as backing up your personal data or copying your data between the other profiles.
    So it is up to you if you want to switch to only one Windows account.

  • Multiple .Mac accounts, on one Admin account on one computer

    Hello all,
    I am trying to have multiple .Mac accounts to publish independent iWeb websites on unique domains (the apple iweb provided ones) but it appears I can only have one .Mac account on my computer's network user to do the easy one click Publish button to.
    I don't want to use multiple user accounts on my computer as I'd like to have access to all my photos, music, videos and everything else and easily do so without logging out from my main account.
    What am I missing?
    Many thanks,
    Michael

    The only safe and easy method is multiple user accounts.
    You can easily store your iPhoto and music Libraries on an external drive and share them between accounts.

  • I have multiple computers set up on homesharing under one itunes account. Can I use face time on all of them or do i need seperate accounts for each?

    I have multiple computers set up on homesharing under one itunes account. Can I use face time on all of them or do i need seperate accounts for each?

    I'd suggest you consider a cloud-based file sharing service such as Dropbox for this sort of use. iOS is not designed to be synched with more than one iTunes library at a time, so attempting to use it as you describe, connecting a single iPad to multiple computers, almost certainly won't work as you intend and is likely to cause nothing but headaches.

  • Can there by multiple accounts under one id?  I just loaded a $25 gift card and it showed up in my balance.  My daughter, under the same id had $12.0 left from a previous gift card.  Now only the $12.01 shows up and the $25 is nowhere to be found?

    Can there be multiple accounts under one apple id?  My daughter and wife apparently share an id between my daughter's ipod and my wife's ipad.  My daughter has what she believes is her $12.01 left from a gift card.  My wife loaded a $25 gift card recently (I saw the $25 balance in her account when she was done) and after a password change, now all that shows up is the $12.01?

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • Multiple Sites, Multiple Domains, one .mac account?

    So, is this possible? Can you create multiple sites in iWeb, save them to a .mac account, and then purchase domain names for each of those sites and have one assigned to each? I'm assuming no, but I'm seeing if someone knows how or someone has some workaround to keep it on .mac, but have multiple domain names for my sites?
    Thanks!!

    So, is this possible?
    No.
    Can you create multiple sites in iWeb, save them to a .mac account, and then purchase domain names for each of those sites and have one assigned to each?
    Yes and no. While .Mac does offer Domain name hosting in the form of a CNAME alias, only one Domain name is available per .Mac account. .Mac is not a registrar for multiple Domains. You can host multiple sites on your .Mac account, but if you desire a 'Domain name' for each site, you will need to purchase the Domains from a registrar like Yahoo, GoDaddy, 1&1, etc, and then forward these Domains to the appropriate sites, hosted on your .Mac account.
    I'm assuming no, but I'm seeing if someone knows how or someone has some workaround to keep it on .mac, but have multiple domain names for my sites?
    The "workaround" would be to utilize Domain forwarding from a Domain name registrar, using the .Mac urls for the forwarding address(es).

  • HT204053 Can I set up icloud services on multiple iphones under a single account? More specifically, can I use- find my iphone services -under one account?

    Can I use Find My iphone service with multiple iphones under one account? I have 4 iphones in my family and I want to monitor all phones by logging into one account!

    You can create and use different iCloud accounts on the same computer, whether they are single or multiple user.
    There is a limit of 3 accounts you can create from a device but I thought this was only iOS devices - maybe not.
    iCloud accounts can only be created using a valid email address, so I guess I'd start there to retrace what accounts you have.
    My Apple ID and iForgot.com may be useful sites for you.
