2 iPhones one account
We have 2 iPhones and now when we sync we get each others contacts which is not ideal, what do we have to do to be able to just get our own contacts etc - we have only 1 apple I'd which we think is the problem and one iTunes library - thanks

We have one imac, two iphones, two imac/iphone user accounts. My account updated itunes and the phone quite easily. The other side will not update itunes - it shows there is an update available, then says there is not. I tried installing from the apple store. It installed, but did not change the version of itunes active on the computer (we even turned it off and on, a la Windows). SO we synced his phone with my side - it updated the OS, but otherwise restored the phone to factory settings. (he is not happy). So I tried to restore it from a backup on his side just to see what would happen, and of course it can't because the phone's software is more current that his itunes.
So we're in a maddening loop. Factory settings, no updated itunes, no access to the backups.The feed is fine. The problem lies with the URL for the media files. I checked the latest episode; the file will play in a browser, and as you say on the iTunes Store; but when subscribing there is an error message that the file requires authentication.
This would happen if you had password-protected it, but that would also appear when playing in a browser. The use of PHP or similar to serve the files is asking for trouble - sometimes it works, sometimes it upsets either the Store or subscribing or both. In this case it would seem that either the scripting is throwing iTunes and leading it to believe that a password is required (though it's not bringing up the pane asking for one), or your server is reacting differently to requests from the iTunes application to the way it reacts to requests from the Store or a browser, where the protocol is different.
It's not an iTunes problem. Strictly you should be putting the actual URL of the file in the feed, not a script; and you may need to check your server settings top make sure it allows downloading in iTunes as well as playing elsewhere. -
Two iPhones, One account. Contacts overwritten
I have two iPhones linked to one account, since using iCloud my daughter's iPhone contacts have overwritten the contacts on my phone and mac. Is there any way of getting them back? I've tried restoring but it looks like its been that what way for a while, I didn't realise because I usually make calls from favourites and most of those where also on her phone.
Sorted problem using Address Book Help on mac. I should not have underestimated how good it can be.
Just needed to attach my external drive, Open Address Book, then open Time Machine, that way I could view the contents of my previous Address Books. When a date was found holding all my contacts I highlighted them then restored. So easy when you know how. -
Inconsistent info, 2 iPhones, one account?
Upgraded my phone and now my app library shows that I have 4 updates available but when I try to update I get "No updates are currently available. To check for updates for another account, sign in with that account." I only have one account but 2 iPhones. Sync'd them both but still getting the same message. Any ideas?

Thanks for the response Dave. You were right, when I checked the way you explained, I found many (most) purchased with a (now) non-existant email address. Is there a way to merge the old with the new?
Sorry but no, there isn't. You'll need to use both the old and new iTunes Store IDs to get your apps updated.

Two iPhones, one account, 1 iPhone creates separate "Purchased" playlist
We have two iPhones and one iTunes account. When we buy music on one phone it creates a separate "Purchased on Blah Blah's iPhone" list when synced back to the computer. The other phones purchased music goes into our regular "Purchased" list. Kind of annoying, any fixes?
ThanksCorrect you need 2 MobileMe accounts, a family setup will be fine.

Ok, I recently wiped out my phone, my wife and I share the same apple ID but obviously two different phones and two different numbers. Before the wipe we had no issues, now when I text her sometimes she doesn't receive them, sometimes she receives them under HER name like she is the one that sent them, and others she receives them under my name like she should. Anyone else have this issue? Is there a setting I need to change? Also she gets messages sent to her phone that I had sent to another number, sorry I know this probably is confusing.....it's really annoying need help!!!

I have three iPads and one iPod and one iPhone. How can I message between them without sending the message to all of them. You send the message to your email address but all of them are set up under one account.
You can have a different receiving email in the Messages app on each device : Settings > Messages > Receive At . I'm not sure that there is a different way to have the message only go to one device.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED ANOTHER IPHONE. MY INTERNET IS NOT WORKING. I JUST CREATED AN APPLE ID. WHAT'S NEXT? I NOW HAVE TWO DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS WITH DIFFERENT USER NAMES. HOW CAN I USE ONLY ONE ACCOUNT FOR ITUNES, ICLOUD APPLE ID ETC???
Welcome to the Apple community.
iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID. -
We have multiple computers, laptops, iphones and ipad in our home. We have kept one account for iTunes in order to monitor what my family downloads for parental monitoring. How can I get approval or allow for more devices to be 'authorized' to purchase from iTunes? I don't want to have to have more than one account that I have to monitor - technology is overwhelming enough to control with all the hackers and distasteful things on the web.
Authorization applies ONLY to computers.
ipads/ipods/iphones/apple tvs are NOT authorized at all. -
I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same family.
Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice. -
I have had an iphone 4s for about a year and have 4 email accounts that come in on it: verizon, gmail, my work, and icloud. Periodically, I send an email from one account, it shows the message as sent from that account in my sent mail, but the recipient receives it from the gmail account and therefore replies to the gmail. Has anyone had this happen? It is almost as if my messages are bouncing into gmail when I send them, although on my phone it shows as having been sent from another account. I have not had this happen on my computer where I have all of these emails coming in as well. I thought perhaps it was me not being careful about which account I was sending from when using my phone, but the mail I sent this morning I was very careful to make sure was from verizon, the sent mail on my phone shows it was sent from verizon, and the reply came in on gmail. Gmail isn't even the default email address- verizon is! My iphone is using version 6.1.3. Does anyone have any ideas? This is a major problem for me so I appreciate any ideas! Thank you!!!
I am not sure whether this is related, but I had a problem with Gmail where each time I sent and email via my iPhone it would bounce back in my Gmail account as unread. You migh want to check this Google article explaining why this happens and how to avoid it:

Select a message, hold the move button, deselect the message while still holding the move button.
A new window appears allowing you to move all messages to the trash.
