Can a family member trade-in?

Can I have my brother trade a few games for me? I can't make it to BBY this week for the 50% bonus. I'll give him my rewards card for the extra 10% GCU.

Hi Nick21,
Good question! While your brother can certainly trade in games on your behalf, your My Best Buy membership info and Gamers' Club Unlocked benefits would not be applicable to the trade. Both My Best Buy memberships and GCU subscriptions are intended to be used by one person only, and many cities/states require that the person performing the trade provide a valid photo ID and other contact information to complete the transaction. For full details, you'll want to speak with an associate at your local store.
Thanks for being a Gamers' Club Unlocked member, as well as for your interest in our Trade In program!

HT204053 can a imac support mutilple iclouds i.e. can ecah family member have ther own cloud

Can an IMAC support multiple iclouds, i.e. can each family member have their own cloud

You can do this, but each family member will need a separate email address in order to set up an iCloud account; and each will need their own user account on the Mac in order to keep the iCloud accounts separate.

Can different family member accounts share an address book in iCloud?

we have a primary mobileme account which is now set up in icloud. we have a family pack with a secondary family member account set up for my wife's business email. This secondary account now also has its own icloud account that we set up. Works fine. The question is this - when my wife is logged in to her icloud secondary account and looking at her work-related emails, how can she access the addresses in the address book that is linked to the main icloud account? She is usually working from a PC so it's not a matter of just looking at the local copy of the address book. She needs to log out of the secondary icloud account, log in to the primary, look up the address, and then go back to the secondary account to send the email from her work email address. Too cumbersome. And icloud does not seem to like having two instances of icloud running at the same time on the same computer.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks -
Joel

You're welcome.
Happy Holidays to you and your family.

Can a family member use my iCloud storage for photos?

Hope I'm not being obtuse, but the answer to this isn't clear to me from the various "help" menus.
The situation is complicated by my living 50 miles from my elderly father.
I need about 50 GB for my photos, but have to pay for 200, of course.
So, is there a way for my Dad, who is a member of my iCloud/App/Whatever family to move HIS photo library from HIS computer to MY iCloud account without having to purchase more iCloud space for his personal account? (His photo library also - barely - exceeds the limit of the next increment of storage available so that i'll have to buy him 200GB if there isn't a way to share the storage from my iC account.
Hope this question is understandable - I don't know how else to frame it.
Thank you for all responses.

Duh! Nevermind. I think I definitely WAS being obtuse about how to share photos.

How can my family member use their iTunes credit for a purchase when part of family sharing

I've set up family sharing with my husband and children. They all have iTunes gift cards with credit on their accounts. I am wondering how they are able to make purchases in the app store using this credit rather than the family share credit card.

If they have credit in their individual accounts, that credit will be used before the organizer's credit card is charged.

How can a family member have an email account on iCloud, separate from mine?

We're changing ISPs, and so my wife needs a new e-mail address. How can I switch her to @me.com, or @mac.com?

She just needs to sign up for iCloud in her own user account on your Mac.
See: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html
She won't get an @mac.com email address though. New ones of those haven't been available for years.

Can a family member access my info with known passwords from a different phone or computer "spying"

I was just wondering if somebody can access my personal info including web searches, emails, text messages, contact info, recent calls and photos and vioedo just about every thing done on your iPhone and PC. If they are the on accouts. I think they have my passwords.

I'm not sure if the iPhoto for iOS forum is the right place for your question, but if someone knows your name and password on any computer they can certainly look at all your stuff. If you're using Safari you can turn on "private browsing" and it won't keep track of sites you've visited.

Just recieved an unlocked iphone 3 from a family member and can't get it to restore it because of an error message

Just receive an unlocked 3gs iphone from a family member and can't unlock the screen. Can't restore iphone because of error message.Now what do I do?

What do you mean by unlock the screen? Is there a passcode set on the iPhone? If so and this is from a family member, can that family member give you the passcode? If it has been forgotten then you must retore from recovery mode per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212

I have an iphone 5 that i trade with a family member they have coverage on it. now the iphones sleep wake button doesnt work sometimes can apple replace my iphone even if i dont have the box or recipit to the product or can they just repair it?

i have an iphone 5 that i traded with from a family member. its has coverage but now the sleep/wake button doesnt work sometimes. can apple replace my iphone and give me a new one or is it just something they can repair? i dont have the box or recipit to apple care or the iphone

Apple can fix it without your receipt or box. They pull the serial number from the device and determine warranty status from that. Hopefully ApplCare was registered to the product before you lost the receipt though. If not, you can go back to the point of purchase and obtain your AppleCare receipt and Apple can help attach it to the iPhone.

Can't log in with a family member ID

Dear all,
I'd have a question about family member log in to iCloud.
I own a mobile me family pack account which I upgraded to iCloud. Master account works great on my Mac. I have troubles using family members accounts.
I made the same operations for upgrading to iCloud with a family account. I can sign in and read my email with Safari, I got Apple's confirmation that my member account went to iCloud. I have problems when I try to log in with it. If I enter ID and pass, Mac says, in the iCloud preference pane "Unrecognized Apple ID or password." Then a window saying "You can't sign in at this time. Try signing in again." I also noticed that Mail app doesn't work
Any idea?? I thank you in advacne for your kind collaboration
Regards
Fabrizio

if you already have one iCloud account signed into in System Preferences>iCloud, you can add additional accounts but not there - you enter them in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts & Calendars. This will enable you to access email, but you can't sync Calendars and the rest of it with any account except the one you signed into first, the 'Primary Account'. If you want to use another account fully you would have to create a new user account on your Mac and sign in there.
Incidentally, if a Family Pack sub-account has been successfully migrated - as appears to be the case - it's an iCloud account like any other: the fact that it was once a sub-account isn't relevant, so don't let that confuse you.

How do I most effectively use find my phone and how can I help a family member use find my phone?

What is the most effective way for me to use FIND MY PHONE?
What is the most effective way for me to help my family member FIND THEIR PHONE?
Thank you

Effectively use is for what? On your computer you can log into iCloud at www.icloud.com and locate your device. Or you can use a different iOS device and the Find My iPhone app to do the same thing.

How can I get my data back after a family member hacked into my iphone and replaced my data

A family member hacked into my iPhone and replaced my data with his own data. I am afraid to plug it into iTunes for fear of overwriting my backup. iCloud probably already overwrote. Can I restore the phone without synching first, and then use Time Machine to get back to an earlier backup and re-synch?

Over two years and no spsonse to this? will there be any point me asking the same?

Why can my children lock and erase other family member Apple devices from their Apple ID?

I recently setup iCloud Family Sharing for our home of 5 people. My personal and unique Apple ID is the controlling parent ID. Others in the family are my wife and 3 children (1 over 18 and 2 under 18). Today I logged into iCloud from one of my kids Apple ID and noticed that it allows him to see everyone elses device location and also gives him the authority to turn on Lost Mode (which locks the device) and to Erase each device. I then logged out and logged into another childs Apple ID and it was the same thing. They could each see everyone's devices including my personal Mac Book Pro, both the iPads my wife and I use and the family iMac.
Essentially that means my kids each have the ability to erase or turn on lost mode for anyone elses device which is kinda scary. Now, perhaps you are thinking that I somehow messed up and put my kids Apple ID as the Organizer for iCloud family share but I can assure you I did not. When I go into iCloud to see the hierarchy it clearly shows my Apple ID as the Organizer and the others are simply shown as family members and are not authorized to approve purchases. I also do not have my kids Apple ID setup on my personal Macbook Pro or my personal iPad as an account so there's no connection that way.
That said, I also wondered if my kids could really do anything to my personal devices or if it would ask them for my password or lock code before doing anything, so I tried it by logging into my son's iCloud account using his Apple ID. I located my personal iPad and then told it to turn on Lost mode. And sure enough it locked my iPad from my son's iCloud account.
So is this how it's supposed to work or is something wrong with iCloud rights for device management? It seems totally wrong that my other family members have such control over other family member devices.
Thanks

Hello sbrown02,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you would like to know why the people in your Family Sharing group have access to your location and that ability to put a device in Lost Mode. Lost Mode is a function available with location sharing and can be toggled off or on. Please reference the attached article for more information.
Family Sharing and location - Apple Support
Use location sharing with Find My iPhone
If you join family sharing and choose to share your location with family members, they can locate and secure a missing device for you.
If you enabled Find My iPhone on your missing device, a family member can:
See the location and status of your device
Play a sound on your missing device to help you find it
Put your device in Lost Mode to help you find it
If you don't share your location with family members, they will be able to see that your devices are online or offline and play a sound to help you locate your missing device. They won't have access to any location information about your devices.
Best regards,
Joe

I have an iPhone 4 and an iPod 4th gen linked to the same email address and apple ID. I am trying to set up a new email address for the iPod so a family member can use it but it doesn't want to recognize the new email account. Where am I going wrong?

I have an iPhone 4 and a 4th gen iPod linked to the same email address and apple ID. I am trying to change the email address on the iPod so a family member can use it but when I do it says it doesn't recognize the email address. Where am I going wrong ? I just want them to be able to iMessage and email without having to use my email address.

The procedure is Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at>Add another email address. The email address has to be a valid working email address, obviously. Apple should verify the email address and you have to go to the inbox of that email account, read the verification email from Apple and follow the inductions in the email in order to complete the verification. Then you go back to the settings, uncheck your email address and check the new email address to be used as the contact email address.

Hello. I just bought my first Imac. Each family member has created an account. My question is: can each account/family member create their own imesssages, so that each family member can imessage privately?

Hello. I just bought my first Imac. Each family member has created an account. My question is: can each person use imessages privately when logged into their account? instead of everyone seeing everyones imessages? is there a way to do this?

I believe the short answer tot that is "yes" however I recommend you contact AppleCare to find out You have 90 days of free AppleCare telephone support when you buy any new Mac. This is the ideal time to begin using it. I'd also recommend that you purchase AppleCare, it will extend your 1 year warranty to 3 years and offer you 3 years of telephone support in addition to other services. You can locate the correct phone number in your part of the planet (Calgary, Canada??) by clicking Contact Apple for support and service
