Allowing more than 1 apple ID on iPad?

How to allow more than 1 apple ID on iPad?

For what purpose? It is easy in some cases, impossible in others.
You can only have one iCloud account in Settings > iCloud,
You can have a different one (only one) in Settings > iTunes & App Stores.
You can have multiple iCloud accounts in Settings > Contacts, Calendars; some functions (Photo Stream, Documents & Data) can only be associated with the primary iCloud account.
Keep in mind that the iPad is designed to be a single-user device.

  • Can you sign in with more than one apple id on an iPad?

    Can you sign in with more than one apple id on an iPad?

    Only one account can be signed in at a time (via Settings > Store), and if you turn on automatic downloads and/or download past purchases from an account then you risk tying the iPad to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

  • HT2731 can i have more than one apple id on a computer? As when we go away we want to facetime from our macpro to our main mac at home and both are registered under the same apple ID. Thanks

    Can you have more than one apple id on a computer. We are going away and want to facetime from our macpro to the mac computer at home but both are registered under the same apple ID. What should we do ?

    I will share with you what I have done to manage this with my family.  While the solution isn't without flawes, it seems to do the trick.  First, you need to have one person who is managing the synching of everyone's devices.  In my family, I have three iphones, about to be four, and five ipads.  We all synch to the same apple ID to allow one another to take seemless advantage of our Itunes, which is on our Imac.  To synch individual music or video interests, we simply select which playlists we want and manually synch that way.  A couple of us use imatch and the cloud to make the entire library accessable as well.  With respect to the imessage, mail, contacts, etc. we each have a gmail account for our individual emails, contacts etc.  So for instance, my forth grade daughter has a gmail account that we choose to synch her contacts, calendar, etc to and then that is also the account where she receives her imessages from on her ipad and itouch. My son, who has an iphone and ipad, does the same thing, but under settings, he goes to imessage and checks his phone number and his email as his preferred way to receive imessages and texts.  My wife and I do the same thing.  To avoid having everyone see one anothers contracts etc, we only synch contacts from our individual email accounts.  Here is the downfall to this:  When you update your phone or add a new device, apple always wants to reset everyone's facetime and imessage settings and then low and behold we are all receiving imessages from one another's friends etc.  To work around this, I simply take each of their devices and go to their imessage settings and only check the email and phone numbers relative to their devices.  I dont' know is this is the best solution, but it seems to work for us. 

  • Can I use more than one Apple ID on one device

    I have seen some answers to this type of question before but not that since the ios 6 so will ask again. My household shares an Apple ID and it has worked great as we have added devices and purchased apps.  My problem now is this, we have hit a point where I have work things on my iPad and iPhone that I really don't need to be shared with the whole family but it isn't a major deal or security risk. I don't want to give up the advantages of having the household ID.  Is there an easy way to have another ID on my iPad and switch between them without having major complications?  I am for the most part a techie so not afraid of these kind of things but I can't afford to lose everything right now and take the time to set it all back up so getting advice here.  Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

    You can use more than one apple id, but keep in mind that when apps need updating that you'll will need to sign in with correct credentials to update them.
    Share an apple id for the itunes and app stores, but keep your own for icloud, facetime and messages.

    Can more than one apple id sign in on my tablet without deleting anything off? Or does err1 hve 2 use ID while on my iPad?

    Another ID can be signed into on the iPad without losing anything, but it is not advisable to download purchased content with another ID, or you will lock yourself out of your own ID for 90 days.  Why don't you explain exactly why you want to sign in with another ID.

  • How can I put more than one Apple ID on one device to receive iMessages?

    I have a personal iPhone and work iPad.  I'd like to receive iMessages from my work Apple ID on my personal iPhone.  Since upgrading to iOS 7, I haven't been able to do so.  Is there a fix for this?

    Although you can use more than one Apple ID on the device at a time, only one at a time can be used for EACH FEATURE like iTunes, Facetime and iMessages,

  • Can u use more than one apple account on your device and itunes

    Can u use more than one apple account on your device and itunes

    Yes, but you have to logout of one, and login to the other.
    If it is an iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch and you buy apps on different accounts, when it comes time to update an app, you have to specify the password for the account used to acquirer the app. You change an iOS account via Settings -> Store -> Apple ID (tap on it), and start by logging out and then you can enter the other Id
    So it is possible, but it can also be a pain.

  • HT1420 i have more than 5 apple products.  how can i get them to all be authorized under one id?

    I have more than 5 apple products and I want to have them all autorized under one id.  How do I do that for the itunes?  It seems ridiculous that apple would limit me to 5 products or less.

    The limit is 5 computers and as far as I know that can't be increased- are you including iPads, iPhones and/or iPod Touches in your products ? If so then they don't count towards the 5.

  • HT1689 how to download apps more than 50 MB on my iPad

    how to download apps more than 50 MB on my ipad using cellular network.

    You can't, the 50 meg limit can't be overridden (only Apple, with the agreement of the carriers, can change it) - you will either need to connect to a wifi network and download it over wifi, or download it on your computer's iTunes and sync it to the iPad

  • Can you make a movie for more than 2 minutes on an ipad and save it on a flash drive

    Can you make a movie for more than two minutes on the ipad and sve it on a flash drive using windows XP

    Using Apple's camera connection kit, you can use a flash drive to IMPORT photos and videos. However, you can't EXPORT any type of file to the flash drive.

  • Can you have more than one user on an ipad

    I am thinking of purchasing an iPad to replace my laptop.  It would be shared with my husband - so, like a laptop, can you set up different users on an iPad, therefore allowing more than one e-mail account to be linked, different appleID's etc?  Thanks

    You can set up multiple email accounts on the iPad, however, and you can set up multiple emails for receiving Messages.
    Is that primarily what you were trying to accomplish? If so, then to set up a second account for Mail:
    Go to Settings>Mail, and click on the type of account you want to set up. Then follow the screens to input the User Name, email address, etc.
    To set up an additional email for receiving text messages:
    Go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive, and add the additional email you wish to include.
    For the messages setting, you would just need to remember that both of you would get all of the other's text messages....
    But Mail accounts would remain separate.
    Cheers,

  • HT4847 Can I buy extra storage for each Apple device by having more than one Apple ID?

    Hi All!
    I have multiple Apple devices and would like to have separate storage for each device, Ipad, Iphone, and Ipod. Is this possible? Can I have more than one Apple ID?

    Not if you want them to share the same iCloud account so they sync the same data between all your devices.  To share the same account, they have to all be set up with the same iCloud ID, and will share the same 5GB of free storage (but you can always purchase more).
    If you want them to be on separate iCloud accounts, you can set up a different iCloud account on each device using as separate Apple ID for iCloud on each.  (You can have more than one Apple ID).  If you do this, they will each have their own, separate iCloud account with 5GB of free storage, but will not sync iCloud data between them.

  • How do I configure the Airport utility to allow more than one rule per port?

    How do I configure the Airport Utility (AU) to allow more than one rule per port?
    I am on a home network, with broadband cable modem.  I have my airport extreme connected to the broadband modem.  I have 2 servers in my home that need to be accessed remotely from time (SSH), and they also serve data for an iphone app, so I'm using a variety of protocols.  The problem I'm running into is that AU seems to only allow one rule per protocol, so if I go to add another address for access on a specific port that is being used by one of my servers, AU tells me "The Port Mapping Entry Already Exists". 
    I need to be able to allow SSH on both of my servers, for instance.  Am I missing something?  Is this doable with AU?
    Thanks for any insight.
    Khalid

    The Port Mapping "rules" on the AirPorts will allow you to: 1. Map a single port to a single IP address OR 2) Map multiple ports to a single IP address.
    What you won't be able to do is map a single or multiple ports to multiple IP addresses.
