2 iphones 1 apple id

Hi,  I am new to Apple and both my wife and I each have iphone5's and ipad's.  We want to have one Apple ID so we do not have to purchase apps or books twice.  However, we do not want to share contacts, email, phone calls, or anything else.  We do want to be able to load music from our desktop from the iTunes program there as we individually wish.  And, when the phones link with Bluetooth, we would like to have them show John's phone and Rita's phone versus the current status of both showing John's phone.  Thanks in advance for your assistance.  John

here is the way to do that, straight from apple:

just remember that if you are syncing contacts and calendars from an application on your desktop only one of you can associate that with your icloud, other than that we have 3 iphones in our house with 1 apple id and 3 iclouds and it works fine.

    Assunto:  Garantia iPhone Apple 4 16G
    Para  : Itautec  S/A - Área de Garantia iPhone Apple
    Prezados,
    Venho por meio desta informar todos os Protocolos abertos na TIM / ITAUTEC para garantir os meus direitos. Meu telefone pifou no dia 28 de outubro e, desde então, estou sem serviço de telefonia móvel. Tentei restaurar via itunes e não tive sucesso. Só na minha família, utilizamos cinco linhas da TIM. Portanto, ficar sem o meu contato está me causando enormes despesas extras. Desde que informei à TIM do meu problema, há quase 15 dias, não tive uma solução. Os atendentes do SAC e da loja própria da TIM no shopping Rio Sul divergiram de conduta todas as vezes que liguei solicitando uma solução para o meu caso. Somente depois de inúmeras tentativas – como se pode ver abaixo, pelo número de protocolos , fui contactado pela área responsável pela garantia do iPhone como deveria proceder.
    De todo modo, já acionei meu advogado, que está ciente de todas as minhas tentativas de comunicação com a TIM /ITAUTEC para resolver meu problema. O iPhone não é um aparelho barato – inclusive, ainda estou pagando por ele – e, como consumidor, estou me sentindo extremamente lesado e mal orientado. Tenho cinco aparelhos da Apple e, em todas as ocasiões em que necessitei suporte da autorizada da empresa no Brasil, fui prontamente atendido. Lamento não estar tento a mesma sorte com o iPhone 4 16G que comprei no Brasil e espero que, a partir de agora, tenha meu direito de consumidor preservado. Conforme solicitado, o aparelho está sendo sem nenhum acessório – confirmo, nenhum arranhão. Desde já, agradeço a atenção e a brevidade na solução.

    (complementing Fernando`s complaint with another complaint):
    I don`t know if you know this, but the warranty services for the Iphone in Brazil are the worst ever (that I have ever experienced) - something that I have never imagined from a company that is Apple's authorized warranty supplier. I buy Apple's products since 2008 and luckly I have never experienced any malfunction, but still, I always thought that if someday any of your products should show any trouble it would be very well cared by Apple. Unfortunately that's not what has been happening with iPhone warranty in Brazil. I`m sorry to tell you this, but I don`t know who else should I call, before going to the Justice to have my iPhone fixed. My story follows...
    On the August, 28th of this year I bought an iPhone 4 16GB Black from a TIM store (TIM is a mobile company in Brazil) at BarraShoppingSul in Porto Alegre, Brazil. By November 21 or 22, the "Home" buttom stoped working, suddenly, without any drops or accidents - it just stopped working at all. So the following days I did two full formats through iTunes, turned on or off the phone several times and nothing happened.
    I searched in Apple's web page what to do and I found out that I had to contact my phone operator and so I did. At November, 22th by 11:50 pm I called TIM (by the number *144) and asked them about what to do. The attendant told me that he didn't know because their system was off-line and that TIM would make contact the other day (protocol number: 2011254975382). The other day, they didn't call me by the morning and as I was already deeply annoyed by the problem of my phone I decided to call them again. So I called Tim at 1:11 pm at November, 23th (protocol number: 2011255278407), asked the attendant about what should I do to use my iPhone warranty and have it fixed. The atendant said I should go to a Tim store with the iPhone and all my documents, there they would make a call to Itautec (the company responsible for the iPhone warranty in Brazil), and that an Itautec member would make contact by the next following 48 HOURS, and that is what I did. At November, 26th I went to the shopping to exactly the same store that I had bought my iPhone, showed the iPhone with the problem. The attendant called Itautec, she told them all my data (address, iPhone model number, contact information), then she got a protocol number from Itautec. She gave me the number, and told me Itautec would make contact in 5 DAYS. The protocol number from Itautec is 12243392. It has passed 15 days and no contact has been made!
    Deeply unsatisfied, annoyed and ungry with the malfunction in my iPhone, last week I did a google research about iPhone warranty in Brazil, and I`ve got surprised by the huge ammount of people complaining about it, extremely unsatisfied with Tim's and Itautec actions and lack of will to resolve their clients problems. You can look at "www.reclameaqui.com.br" that is a famous and very important brazilian site that allows people to publicise their problems with products, just make a search on the iPhone warranty subject, please (of course, in Portuguese).
    After discovering so many complaints I decided I should not wait for their contact. First I tried the TIM store, I spoke to the seller of the iPhone about my problem, she felt sorry but she said she couldn`t do nothing: it's Itautec's responsibility now. OK, so I searched Itautec's web site about it, then I discovered something very "interesting": they only offer a phone number to speak about problems of iPhone out of warranty!!!
    This is true! I have never seen such a company that only offers a phone number to products that are OUT of warranty! Nevertheless I called them (phone number: 08007727753), because I was deeply in need to speak to a human being of that company about my problem. I spoke with a woman called Rosangela and she repeated to me that she could only help if my iPhone was out of warranty - I told her I was desperate and so she told me that THE ONLY WAY I COULD MAKE CONTACT WITH ITAUTEC TO SPEAK ABOUT MY PROBLEM WAS THROUGH AN E-MAIL: "[email protected]". She also told me that probably a woman called Natalia would answer me. I sent the e-mail last week, until now, no contact.
    I just don't know what else should I do. I spent a lot of money on this phone, I thought I was secure with Apple, but now I think different, and I`m telling everyone this sad story. Please help me, unfortunately Apple's image is being ruined with this too. I don`t trust TIM, nor ITAUTEC, but in Apple I still do. Please  help me!

    iPhone apple logo goes on and off and is unresponsive

    It needs to be dried out. Stop using it.. don't turn it on. Put it in a zip lock bag with some rice or one of those packets of dessicant for a day or two. That might do it.

  • TS3988 I use iCloud. I have an iPhone, Apple laptop, and I recently bought an iPad. The pictures I take on my phone can be viewed on my iPad, but what about all the pictures on my phone that I took before I bought my iPad? How do I view those with my iPad

    I use iCloud. I have an iPhone, Apple laptop, and I recently bought an iPad. I can view the pictures I take on my cell phone on my iPad. But what about all the pictures I took on my phone before I bought my iPad? How do I view those on my iPad?

    POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
    Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
    If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically  Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
    To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

  • Just imagine how many more iPhones Apple would sell if....

    Just imagine how many more iPhones Apple would sell if they allowed you to buy them as gifts.
    Seriously, the only way to purchase one as a gift is if you pay the non-contract price which is astronomical (over $600).
    I know they need the account owner to be there to sign and activate the new phone, but there should be a way you can buy it as a gift at the upgrade price (assuming you know they're eligible) and AT&T gives you a window of time to have the person come in and activate it.
    And before you ask, I don't do gift cards. I like giving real gifts. It would've been great to give both my sister and her husband iPhones for Christmas, but I'm not allowed.

    You need to bring this up with AT&T, as it has nothing to do with Apple. AT&T is the one that is subsidizing the price, and they have their own requirements that must be fulfilled in order to get that price.

  • Iphone apple id does not match ipad

  • I now have 6 iphones, apple tv, ipad. how do they all work on the match

    I now have 6 iphones, apple tv, ipad. how do they all work on the match

    Go to your computer, activea iTunes match -- it will upload from your computer the songs it does not have in its library.  Once done, turn iTunes match on on each device.  Depending on your library size, it may take a few minutes before each device can access the songs.  WHen you stream from iCloud to your device, a small amount of space (cache) is used.  To recover that space, turn iTunes match off, wait a minute, then back on and it comes back.  This is really important on the iPHone if you don't have a lot of free space.

  • On my iPhone 6 how do I change iPhone apple id for the app store. it is in someone elses name?

    hello I need help,
    on my iPhone 6 how do I change iPhone apple id for the app store. it is in someone elses name?

    Why is it in someone else's name?
    Did you get this iPhone from that someone else?
    If so they should have released the iPhone form their account before giving it to you.
    All purchases made with that account will be forever tied to it and will require it to update in the case of Apps.
    If nothing has been purchased, you can go into Settings->iTunes & App Stores->Apple ID and sign out of their account there , and sign in with your own.

  • Husband's iphone Apple ID

    I have an iphone and a new ipad. The iphone Apple ID is registered in my husband's Apple ID. I have my own on my ipad. When I try to download an app on my phone, only my husband's Apple ID comes up. I cannot change it to my own. How can I do that?

    You will have go log out of your Hubands Apple ID. To do this go to the bottom of the App Store > Featured > click on your husbands email > Click Sign Out.
    You can then log in with your own Apple ID and download apps.
    All the apps that were downloaded on the device in your husbands Apple ID will always be in his name, unless you delete the app and download it on your name.

  • Can iphone 5 preorder through iphone apple store app port numbers or only process upgrades?

    can iphone 5 preorder through iphone apple store app port numbers or only process upgrades? for example, can you setup a new line of service to an existing verizon account and port the ATT number over using the apple store app on iphone?

    I have been waiting for a post like this.  Just ordered mine from AT&T and the tax is close to $52. At an 8% mark that also equals to $649.  I think they are charging full retail sales tax.  I called AT&T and they couldn't explain it to easily they started saying that there is an extra luxury tax but I think they don't know it's just full retail tax.  They also said that it's just a hold on my card by final charge will be processed when the phone gets shipped.
    I checked fine print of sprint and AT&T. Ecause when you upgrade online with AT&T you don't pay tax but it states that it will be collected at the time it shipped. Sprint charges $24 which is almost half but also claims that there might be an extra tax when it shipped. 
    I am puzzled by the whole issue.  But 25 bucks won't get me not to order my phone.  I was able to get credit from my carrier because of the competition in the form of statement credits.  Ordered 2 phones and een after crazy high tax I got one for red plus some :). Tax is crazy anyone else order it an have this issue please share

    I merged my Apple ID accounts on my iPhone and iPod...how can I change the iPhone Apple ID account so that the iPod and iPhone has there own?

    I think I understand what you mean. You were asked if you wanted to merge the contacts with your iCloud account. Contacts take up very little room and are probably not the reason that your iCloud is full. If you're now backing up two devices to iCloud rather than one, that will indeed take up more room.
    You cannot undo the contact merge. You can go to Settings>iCloud on either device and see what categories of stuff you're backing up and make selections. You can also purchase more iCloud space there.
