I can't activate FaceTime & iMessage on my iPad ... Would this have anything to do with already having these set up on my iPhone with the same apple ID?

As long as you're logged into the same AppleID on both devices, this is not a problem.  It's only a problem if you're logged into a different AppleID and then try to associate FaceTime with an email that tied to the other AppleID.

  • HT3529 I have and iPod Touch, and my sister has an iPod touch. Both use the same Apple ID. If I use iMessage, can my sister see my messages?

    Yes.
    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID  but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.    
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

    Hi sambanyc,
    What version of Adobe Reader have you installed on your Mac?
    Please try installing on a different Admin user account and check if that makes a difference.

  • HT3529 will imessaging work on two iphones using the same apple id

    will imessaging work on two iphones using the same apple id

    It will. If the two phones are used by two different people, however, you will need to implement some careful management of your iMessage settings to ensure that you don't each receive each-other's messages. It is a much safer option to use different Apple IDs for each individual.
    On iOS devices, you are able to use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and Facetime, iCloud, and the iTunes and App Stores.

  • I have the IPhone, IPad and MacBook, IPad and IPhone share the same Apple ID and Icloud storage. Cannot make ID Change on MacBook as it says the ID is already taken. How can I make all three match?

    I have the IPhone, IPad and MacBook, IPad and IPhone share the same Apple ID and Icloud storage. Cannot make ID Change on MacBook as it says the ID is already taken. How can I make all three match?

    The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
    Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
    also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
    and the iTunes Match services.
    (I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
    If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
    iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
    and
    iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
    In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

  • I can't activate FaceTime & iMessage

    Dears,
         Yesterday I have been doing service (Find My iPhone) my wife
    Has erred and pressed on ( Erase iPhone ) and Already been cleared Contents,
    After that my wife was running iPhone.
    But there are two problems:
    1 - can't activate FaceTime by phone number, but by the Apple ID it's okay!
    2 - can't not activate iMassage by phone number, but by the Apple ID it's okay!
    You kindly help me
    Ahmad Binhimd

    If the device was remotely wiped using Fimd My iPhone it can take up to 24 hours for the phone number to verify using Facetime and iMessage.  Leave them turned on and do not toggle them off in that period of time.

  • How do I set up iMessage so I can send messages from my iPad to my iPhone using the same apple id

    I am trying to set up iMessage so I can send and receive messages on my iphone 5 and my iPad using the same apple id.

    I assume that you want to keep the same Apple ID on both devices for downloads and purchases but you just want to know how you can use Messages on both devices without creating a new Apple ID.
    On one of the two devices ....Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at>add another email address ... and enter another working email address. After you enter the email address and it is verified by Apple, go to the InBox of that email account, read the email from Apple and follow the instructions to complete the verification. Then go back to the settings and remove your Apple ID email address. You will now use that new email address at the contact at email address for messages on that device.
    You can keep your Apple ID email address and use that one on the other device.

  • Can 2 different iphones share the same apple ID?

    Can my husband who just got a I phone use my apple ID?  He wants to get our Itunes from the computer on his phone.

    You can share iTunes content using the same Apple ID, but for everything else...iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime...your husband needs his own Apple ID. If you don't set things up that way, you'll have a mess on your hands. You can create an Apple ID here:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Must be a verified email address.

  • Can two iPhones share the same apple id?

    I have a white iPhone 4 and i just bought a new black iPhone 4. Can I activiate the new black iPhone 4 and use the same apple id on both of them? Will all the music be shared? Can I have access to the account on both phones?

    No. The only information that may be transferred between the two is music, apps, or books if automatic downloads are turned on within Settings>iTunes and App Stores. However if you use the same Apple ID for iCloud on both devices they will share whatever information you share with iCloud. For instance if you have different contacts on both phones and use the same iCloud account with both of them they will then show a combination of the two contact libraries on both phones. So if you add a contact to one iPhone it will add the same contact to the other. The same goes with deleting contacts as well. Hope this helps.

  • Can't activate Facetime/iMessage on Mac OS X

    Hi, I just got a new MacBook Pro and I can't seem to activate my iMessage/Facetime account with my Apple ID. When I enter my Apple ID / Password, it says "incorrect Apple ID / Password". I'm not too sure what to do as I have absolutely no experience with macs at all.
    Thank you,
    Kevin

    Hi again Kevin,
    I thought I'd give it a shot, just in case you missed the time thing.  There are an awful lot of MacBook owners who seem to have Facetime problems--and that should not be.
    Facetime works great on my IMac Snow Leopard machine, but I remember the process for setting up the FT account was rather ambiguous.  I mentioned to my wife that the nerds at Apple don't seem to have the ability to communicate with their users very effectively.
    Folks like you should not have to go through all this trouble to activate an APP like FT.  If I see any info that I think will help you, I'll post it on this thread.

  • HT5622 I have two iPhones using the same Apple ID. I want to change the ID on one of the phones without changing the other. Can it be done without affecting the other devices that use the ID.

    How can I change the Apple ID on one phone but the other. Right now they both use the same ID.

    Sure.
    For the iTunes/App store...Settings>iTunes/App Store...tap the ID shown, sign out...now, sign back in with the ID you want to use. Be aware, any apps obtained with the old ID can only be updated using that ID, as all apps are forever tied to the ID used to obtain them.
    Fir iCloud: Settings>iCloud...turn everything off, including Find My Phone. For Contacts/Calendars, you'll be prompted to keep the data on the phone or delete it...your choice. Then, scroll down, Delete Account. Now, set everything back up using the new ID.
    This won't affect any data stored at iCloud.com, or any other devices.

  • Can I synch two iPhones to the same apple user ID?

    My husband & I have shared our Apple ID but it hasn't been a concern until our purchase of two iPhone 4s phones yesterday. I have synched mine up with our account & I use the username & password when it's requested. Not sure what to do for my husband's phone. Help anyone. Thanks!

    Allan I have my iPod, MacBook and iPad synched with it. How will synching my husband's phone impact my music & Apps? When I synch my phone do I just uncheck his apps so they don't go on my phone and he does the same? Also for instance on game center on my iPhone I had to enter our apple ID and password to get in. Can he enter that same name and password on his phone. Sorry if these questions seem done. I'm learning. :-)
