2 devices sharing user name

I have two Ipod touches registered under the same apple user name. I no longer wish for them to share itunes cards. How do I seperate them?

Hi,
It is expected to receive 2 different IP on 2 interfaces on a single machine if it is connected on both wired and wireless. Built-in Parental Control feature does not require an IP address to configure - it uses the machine's hostname for identification.
If everyone needs to believe in something, I believe I'll have another beer..

Changed my Apple User Name (email address) and home sharing no longer works?, Changed my Apple User Name (email address) and home sharing no longer works?

I've had the 2nd generation Apple TV since this past October when it was released and it has worked fine until I recently changed my Apple User Name (email address). After changing my user name my Apple TV and iPhone 4 no longer find my shared network. Home sharing is enabled on all devices, including my Sony Vaio Laptop, iPhone4, and Apple TV 2nd generation. Everything else has remained constant, including service provider, router, modem, and internet security (Trend Micro). Also, my library is on a networked hard drive, which didnt seem to make a difference before, but I figured I'd mention it. Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Winston,
Thank you for the information. He confirmed that the ID and password are the same on every device. This only started happending when he changed his User Name with Apple.
--Itunes is running on a Windows Vista Machine (Sony Vaio)
--He has an Apple TV (2nd Gen)
--He has an iPhone 4
Can you tell me more about the technologies that apple uses to make "homesharing" work? Do you think he may need to remove then re-install Bonjour?

Invalid user name and password when adding a shared printer from vista

I have the following hardware in our house:
1. A Vista Ultimate
2. A Power Book G4
3. A Netgear RangeMax router
4. A Canon IP2200
The printer is attached to the vista PC by USB.
That PC is attached by ehternet to the router.
The mac is networked to the router by wireless.
Our wireless network is secured by WPA-PSK.
I have set up file and printer sharing on my vista PC and on the mac.
File sharing is working perfectly and can connect to my PC using the windows file sharing protocol (SMB).
I then decided to add my printer as a shared device. I set the printer to shared using my vista PC.
On the mac I opened:
System Preferences > print & faxes > Set Up Printers > add.
I selcted Windows Printing and then Workgroup (my vista PC is on this workgroup)
and then clicked my PC and then Choose.
I then get asked for my Windows Username and Passowrd.
After typing this in I get the follwoing message.
"Unable to connect to server with the provided password and user name.
Error: 256"
I know that my username and password are correct as I add the same printer to my friends XP laptop.
Is this a vista or mac issue or both. I really don't want to have to unplug my printer or copy the file to my PC everytime I want to print something.
I have not tried to add the printer to the mac from a XP compluter and maybe something I need to try.
Sorry for the long post but I really want to sort out this problem.
P.S I have googled for this problem and have come across a mac help forum with the exact smae problem. However no one has a solution.
I hope I can find a solution for me and others having this problem.
Power Book G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I don't have Vista...
I wonder if this will help:

PROBLEMS SETTING UP EMAILS AS DEVICE REFUSES TO RECOGNISE PASSWORD AND/OR USER NAME

PROBLEMS SETTING UP EMAILS AS DEVICE REFUSES TO RECOGNISE PASSWORD AND/OR USER NAME
My 9800 ( I have 2 - one spare ) is driving me nuts- will not let me set up email accounts from my other Curve model.
Repeatedly told that either user name or details are wrong, yet they are RIGHT on website.
Exasperated
Help please??
Fair winds and kind landfalls

Thank you- I have read through that thread and can see some resonance with my issue.
My AOL emails work VERY fast with BB, in fact almost simultaneously received on PC & Torch " ping ping!"
This issue only raised its ugly head when I had 2 Torches replaced by my insurers.
Whilst the claim was in process I used a new Curve, loaded from backup on PC to keep emails going and of course phone & web facilities. ( I use the BB to power internet via bluetooth to my PC / laptop when living on a remote island with no phone lines or power supplies) All was fine. Swapping email accounts took a few minutes with the usual password confirmations for each AOL screenname etc.
Then the new Torches came back from insurers, and I tried to swap devices. Phoning & texting is fine. Al data and contacts swap over fine.
SETUP email accounts.............stymied every time. It says repeatedly that my user name/password is invalid etc etc etc
Have tried security wipes. Have tried setting up new BB ID & passwords on PC website. All is OK until I try to setup emails on the Torches. This has used up ridiculous amounts of time- all wasted.
I love the BB phones and the fast email push......in fact I recently bought a new Sony Xperia Z1 but sent it back because of wifi coverage meant no emails on that superb phone for lots of the time.
Good old BB I said..........I always get emails wherever I am. ( Rural Scotland has very patchy radio & wifi coverage)
Was about to purchase new Z10s just to get a bigger screen, but now I am averse to buying ANY BB phone again because this present mess means I may never get emails set up again. How nuts is that?
Many thanks for all help & suggestions..........boy do I need them!!
Kind wishes from West of Scotland

I want to sync my I phone user name (my current e-mail address) with my iPad, PC user name (old e-mail address.) If I delete that current address in the iPhone, won't I also be deleting it in my other devices? They are synced. I don't want to lose it

I want to sync my I phone user name (my current e-mail address) with my iPad, PC user name (old e-mail address.) If I delete that current address in the iPhone, won't I also be deleting it in my other devices? They are synced. I don't want to lose it. I just want to get it out of the way on my iphone so it doesn't confuse the transfer of ID names and then I want it back again.. I tried deleting the cloud account, being told the current e-mails would be spared. But all it did was pop up a prompt asking me for the password to my still current email ID. So I assume now that I have to go to mail and get rid of the e-mail account. But I'm scared I'll lose everything in my other devices too.

You can change the email address you use as your apple ID. this doesn't mean you have to delete the old email address as email.
When you delete an email from your device, it is only removed from the device, it does not delete your emails or the email account.

My husband bought an iPad 2. I have a Mac. ITunes is in my name but I have turned sharing on. When we updated to OS5 we lost all the free apps that he downloaded in his user name. Is there no way to update using my iTunes without losing his software.

My husband bought an iPad 2. I have a Mac. ITunes is in my name but I have turned sharing on. When we updated to OS5 we lost all the free apps that he downloaded in his user name. Is there no way to update using my iTunes without losing his software. He is frustrated using the iPad because he never knows whether to use his user name or my user name.

Apps are only tied to one account... You can set up two iTunes accounts on your computer, however, and let his iPad sync to his account. If he has never backed up his apps to a computer, however, he will have to redownload all the apps. Afterwards, he can backup to iCloud instead of your computer.

In the old Mobile me storage I had shared storage for my family and all of our devices. How do I breakup the 55GB across my apple accounts now that iCloud is by device by user?

In the old Mobile me storage I had shared storage for my family and all of our devices. How do I breakup the 55GB across my apple accounts now that iCloud is by device by user? Anyone else have this issue. I am also in need of correcting the storage from my work where I do not have Safari or I can not down load iCould to my desk top.

That storage moves to master account. Since there are no accounts like that in Icloud, people in your family will enjoy complimentary 5 gigs from Apple and they will let you know if they need anymore. You will not be able to manage storage from windows desktop

Sharing documents between Macs - what user name should I use?

I have been trying to set up a shared folder on our main work Macbook so that my Macbook can access and edit the documents in that folder.
I have created a username "lastnamefirstname" on the main macbook and enabled permissions on that username to read and write.
However, when I connect to the folder with that exact user name, all the files and folders show up as read only.
Should the username be exactly the same as my computers name? Or can it be anything? I've tried different combinations of "lastname firstname", "firstname lastname", and I've tried deleting all the login details from my keychain and retrying, but I'm still coming up against the same problem.
Thanks for your time!

hi Ricardo,
I think you just have to set up a validation, you don't need an exit for that. You can do that in GGB0. On the other hand due date as field does not exist, so don't look for that
hope this helps

I can't sign into Firefox Sync on my Android phone, but I can sign in on the computer. On the mobile device it says that the password/user name is wrong.

I am unable to sign into Firefox Sync on my Samsung Galaxy S4, using the exact same password and user name that I successfully sign in on the desktop computer. On the mobile device, I get a message stating that either the user name or password is incorrect. I want to be able to sync Firefox on the computer with Firefox on the phone, especially for the bookmarks, but I'm unable to do so even following the directions in the How-To video.

Hi pitbulllady
I would suggest a) resetting the password on desktop https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ive-lost-my-firefox-sync-account-information#w_iaove-forgotten-my-sync-password-ae-how-do-i-reset-it_2 and then b) trying again on your Android phone or tablet
If the above doesn't help and since we can't read minds :-) we need more troubleshooting details to help you:
# What version of Android are you using (e.g. Jellybean 4.1-4.3, Kitkat 4.4, Lollipop 5.0, 5.1, etc)?
# What version of Firefox for Android are you using? (please try the latest version which is currently FF37.0.1)
# What did you do exactly, what happened and what did you expect? (details please! including the steps in the video you followed)
Cheers!

TS3899 Suddenly on both my iPhone and iPad I cannot access my AOL mail. They tell me my user name and password are incorrect. Yet, I have no problem with other devices in accessing. I have deleted and reinstalled my account information etc. Any ideas?

Suddenly on both my iPhone and iPad I cannot access my AOL mail. It tells me my user name or password are incorrect. Yet I have no trouble accessing from other devices. This occurred randomly in the middle of the night. I'd done nothing different or unusual. I've tried re-starting both devices, tried deleting and re-installing my account information. Any suggestions?

Hmm... looks like this is an issue for that email provider for some reason.
A user in a bt.com forums recommends turning off Push Emails settings.

Coudln't hurt to try it and see if the issue resolves itself.

Trying to download updates on iPad but the incorrect user name keeps coming up. How do I change it without changing my correct user name that works on all other devices?

When trying to download updates on iPad, the user name it is accessing is not correct. All other devices and actions are working correctly with the correct user name. How do I fix this?

Thank you.....to be more precise....the id and password assigned to itunes is correct and works..but....when I hit 'update all' and get the small inset screen to sign iin....it is asking for a password to a different email address. I need it to use the icloud address I always use to puchase from itunes. I don\t know where it found this new email address?

Hi, My problem is I cannot connect my apple tv to my account, the user name and password are definitely correct, I upgraded the software, reset the device, but no chance. What should I do?

Hi, My problem is I cannot connect my apple tv to my account, the user name and password are definitely correct, I upgraded the software, reset the device, but no chance. What should I do?

Try this:
Reboot device by pressing both the home button and sleep/wake (power) buttons at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings (or for network connection issues 'reset network settings').
(no media or data will be deleted from the device, this will only take a minute).

2 ipods, 2 user names... sharing music ?

ok so i've been reading posts into "how to get two ipod minis going at the same time on one computer with different user names... ok so i understand most of it but there is one question...
"i want 90% of the current library on the new ipod, if i move my current library into the shared music folder will i just have all the songs??? is it possible to delete off one user accounts library and still keep the songs on the other library???"
also is it possible to reverse the "consolidating the library" process to free up memory again after the new user account has been formed??
help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Oliver, Good morning.
First Question :
This can Be Done Automaticaly By Your iPod From the shared Music Doc. But You can also Do it manualy and Click - drag all Your songs to Your iPod.. (this is easyier).
Second Question:
Yes, Go To " Preferences", then Go To " Advanced " and Go Un-check The "Copy Files To The itunes Music Folder When Adding To Library ".. This Should Get You Rid Of The Consolidating Helper.

HT5824 why does my ipad say user name disabled, but on all other devices i can pog into itunes and icloud using my user name

why does my ipad say user name disabled but i can use my user name to log into itunes and icloud on other devices

At this time there is no "solution." You'll simply have to wait the 90 days to re-enable iTunes Match.
For now here is my suggestion. In your User Account, in OS X, sign out of whatever iTunes Store account you are signed in with. Then sign in with your store account and leave it at that. Now sign out of your OS X User Account, sign into your wife's OS X User Account and sign into the iTunes Store with her Apple ID (if necessary sign out of the account first).
Now, you can go back to your OS X User Account and attempt to enable iTunes Match. You will probably get the "wait 90 days" message. If so leave it, mark your calendar, and wait for the 90 days to expire. You can try contacting iTunes Store support at <https://expresslane.apple.com> if you wish, but I really do not know how useful that will be.
Incidentally, you get the message to pay for the service when trying to enable it on your wife's Apple ID because the service has not been purchased using that Apple ID. iTunes Match is designed to be a single-user service that is never signed out of and is associated with one, and only one, Apple ID and a regional store.
