Buying ibook for someone else's ipad
Is it possible to buy an ibook for someone else's ipad?
not 100% but if you go to settings and store and change the appleID from theirs to yours in which case you will make all their apps stop working
which would mean you would have to delete their ibooks app as that would no longer work
and use app store to redownload the ibook app using your appleid
buy the book and log out with your appleID in settings -> store
which of cause would make the ibook app downloaded with your appleID
stop working when
the other guys appleID is applied again where the other guy will have to redownload the ibook app to
be back to the start
so I believe it can be don but I doubt it's a good path to travel down

Hello Jerry and welcome to the Community.
1. First posting rule: Never use someone else's thread even if you think you have exactly the same issue. You don't.
2. No two issues are ever identical. There are too many variables. ALWAYS start your own topic.
3. Not advisable and not recommended.
4. A much better way to achieve your objective is to purchase a Skype Gift Card. Details here: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12197/what-is-a-skype-gift-card-and-where-can-i-buy-one?frompage=...
TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac
If my advice helped to fix your issue please mark it as a solution to help others.

Can I purchase an iBook as a gift for someone else?
Can I purchase an iBook as a gift for someone else?
If I am sending a book as a gift via iTunes, how does the person open it up in iBooks, if does it automatically open up in iBooks. I just don't want any difficulty for my father to open and enjoy his book. Would I be better to just download it directly onto his ipad and not have it as a gift for him, could there be some technical or other difficulties for him?

Hi Mahmoudmuhmd,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The telephone number on your Apple ID is tied to iMessages. You may need to change the password for your Apple ID account to prevent others from using it. Here are some articles that will help with this:

Asking for someone else Password
I am being asked for for family password when wanting to update my apps on a new ipad . I am at their house and did try to connect to their wireless. But have since disconnected. I never bought any apps with their ID but did allow them to backup their apps on my computer but using their own ID. Now I want to update my apps it asks me for the password of my family ID but if I want to purchase a App it asks me for my password. This is happening while I am at there house. What can I do to rectify it?
It's even asking for someone else password from any destination now not just when I am that house.

Why does App Store update ask me for someone else's Apple ID?
I have 14 Apps that have updates available. I was able to update a few using my Apple ID. However, the rest all pop up with a message asking for someone else's Apple ID and Password when I click on Update.
I know this person but all the apps were downloaded using my Apple ID so I do not understand why it is asking me for his password and showing me his Apple ID.
I have tried signing off and back on but still get the same results. This is fairly new problem. I used to be able to use my own Apple ID to upgrade the apps on my phone. But not anymore. I do not have this person's password so I am unable to complete the update.
Any ideas on how to change this behavior?
Thanks
PvtbearThose apps were apparently purchased on the other person's Apple ID or were transferred to your computer from the other person's computer. Those apps are not registered against your Apple ID. Either you use the Apple ID and password of this other person or you purchase the apps using your Apple ID.
It's simple enough to check your Purchases page in the App Store to see if these apps are listed for you. -
I purchased adobe for someone else. How do they download it without logging in to my account?
I will assume you mean Acrobat Standard XI.
They can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use the serial number you purchased for them to activate it.
Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

Is there a way to purchase itunes books for someone else as a gift (Christmas) and give them the codes or printout receiptwithout automatically downloading the purchase for me? Or is an itunes giftcard the only way to go?
TV shows will only appear in the cloud if you are in a country where they can be re-downloaded from the store (you can't add them yourself), in which case they will appear in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app for re-downloading. But they will only appear there if you are in a country where they can be re-downloaded, and then only as long as the TV company leaves them in the store (content providers occasionally remove their items).

Is it possible to transfer songs on iPod to a computer that already has an iTunes profile for someone else? I recently had my laptop stolen so I no longer have iTunes backed up on a computer.

Do you mean you do not have a backup of your stolen computer? -
if i purchased my device with my money is it legal for someone else to put on the parental controls?
That is an interesting question. If you are at the "age of majority", then why would you allow someone else to put restrictions on your device.. If it is a condition of your employer to use the device on their network services, then you allow it to use the device for their system. If you are under the age of majority, and your parents are requiring it, sounds like the parents care.

I traded my iphone in and now have a new one (iPhone 5) with the same SIM. Since, I have had some iMessages meant for someone else and some strange things happening on my phone (applications opening by themselves, calls disappearing from log). Any ideas?
The answer is very simple: You were not the original owner of the phone. Target sold you a phone that had been returned. You can verify the date of the original sale here: Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage. I suspect you will find that the warranty expiration date is not one year from the date that you bought it.
