We have an iphone and 2 ipods that all use the same icloud. How can I get it to where the messages and contacts from each device are not shared

My husband is getting all of my childrens messages on his phone. How can I change that or does he need his own apple ID? If so do we need to rest his phone to register it under him?

Yes he would need his own apple id for imessage/facetime and icloud.
In the meantime on his device go to settings - message - send&receive - remove the shared apple id.

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

  • Pleasanton store always overcrowded and noisy. They no longer offer one hour one on one intro session. I can't hear or think with all the commotion in the store.  How can I get an appt. before the store opens?

    The Pleasanton store is always overcrowded and noisy. I can't hear and can hardly think in there. They no longer offer a 1 hr. one on one intro session. I want to buy a mac this week but I won't if I can't try one and get my questions answered. How can I get an intro session before the store opens?

    If you know which computer you want you can order it online at the online Apple Store. As for learning your new computer Apple provides many online tutorials for people make the switch from a PC. Here are some starter sites that I'd recommend you bookmark and use.
    Switch 101, Mac 101 & Find Out How Video tutorials.
    If you prefer to purchase directly from a brick and mortar Apple Store you are very fortunate to live in the Bay Area, where there are many stores to choose from. When you arrive tell the receptionist you want to purchase an iMac and they will have help you get a sales professional to help you. You can also use the new system Apple implemented this past week at any of the display counters to request a sales person come to you. Again the receptionist can help you get started on that too. Once a system is purchased and you buy the one on one service the one one one service is executed where it's more quiet than inside the store. I frequent the Valley Fair store in Santa Clara on occasion, this store is extremely busy and I see people receiving one on one service all the time within the mall at dedicated tables.

    Without a backup, the use of iTunes or the use of iCloud, your only choice is to restore the device as new to remove the passcode.

  • I have lost  years worth of music  and pictures not all from the same pc how can i get it back

    I have lost years worth of music and pictures from my ipod how can i retrieve them ?

    - If photos were in your iPod Camera Roll, just restoe from backup. If they were synced to the iPOd you have to get them from where you got them the first place
    - For itunes pruchsed music see:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    - For other music you will hae to get it from where you got it the first time.

  • HT5621 i recently had to change my apple id, however my old one still pops up and is the one that comes up undre my iCloud. how can i get rid of this?

    a while back my email was hacked and i could no longer remember the password for my apple id because i had changed it so many times. i ended up making a new apple id and changed everything i could over to that one, however, my iCloud information is still set to my old id and i am unable to change that and i get random pop ups while using my phone that ask for the password to the old id. i called support and i was told they would charge me $120 to help me out with this, but i think it is outrageous to pay that amount when the malfunction is an issue with apple, not me.  is there anyone to reset my iCloud configurations and id because that is truly all i think i need to do, other than find a way to delete the old ID from my phone completely.

    Make sure you enter your new Id in settings/message, settings/facetime.  ANy content that you downloaded with the old ID is forever linked to that old ID and if you have apps that were downloaded with the old ID and you want to update them you can only do that with the old ID.  You could delete those apps and downlad them again ( and pay for them if they are not free apps)

  • This is a question about the iTunes Store.  I have the correct artist, title, composer, and album name for a song popular in the 1970's.  The store's Advanced Search feature can't find any of the information.  How can I get Search to find the song I seek?

    What can I try if the store's Advanced Search strikes out trying to find the song I want?

    Perhaps the song is not available in MP3 format, or isn't available in the iTunes Store, or simply not available in your country. (A Norwegian band's first album from the 1980s became available in MP3 format only in April 2012; an example that not everything is automatically is available in MP3 as soon as possible.)
    ... and before any wag says, or even thinks "it", yes - the Norwegian band's album is very good! (Still waiting for their second album, from 1982, though!)
    You may be surprised at how often a song or album is not available because of "contractual problems" - in other words, someone's being greedy, difficult, or both. (Another album I like, from a UK band of the 70's, was unavailable for a long time because - and I'm quoting the band's leader - "the copyright owner wanted too much money for the album to be on CD.")
    You could try looking for the song in other stores. If it's not yet available anyhwere, you'll just have to be patient. You could try contacting the band via any websites they have, and asking them about it's availability. What's the song? Perhaps I (or soemoen else) might be able to confirm it's availability on MP3 from another source.

  • Downloading TV shows from itunes - episodes appearing seperately not all under the same series despite all the information being the same.  How can I get them to appear under the same series

    Just that
    I have many series - NCIS, West Wing etc where some episodes appear under the series and some appear on their own.
    I have checked the info anf they appear to be identical.
    How do I get them to group together corectly?

    After a couple of days, I'm noticing that the repeat(ing) offenders have more than 10 episodes, and seem to keep repeating them every time I sync.
    They only show once in my phone and in the iTunes Podcasts, but through iTunes and looking at what's in my phone is when I see the repeats.
    Even after I've marked a podcast as played, and deleted it from within my phone, as well as telling iTunes to delete the played episodes, it still shows multiples of the played episodes.
    There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it either. They aren't the newest ones either.

    Question: When you refer to an app here --
    ''I've been able to recreate this bug every time by opening a stream in one tab, any other page in the other and then starting the app - freeze every time.''
    -- is that a completely unrelated application outside of Firefox, or something in another Firefox window or tab?
    If you have not already tried disabling the protected mode feature of the Flash plugin, the following pages/posts provide different ways to do that:
    * Adobe support article under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
    * Manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/968190?page=5#answer-509209
    * Batch file to automate the manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/982093#answer-518078
    Flash needs to completely unload from memory (restarting Firefox might help) before this would take effect.
