Can I give my iPhone 6 to my daughter so that she can put her vodafone sim in it? Our contracts are both with Vodafone.
i have recently upgraded to iPhone 6 but want to give this to my daughter now. She currently has a 5C on contract with Vodafone same as I do. Can we just swap the SIM cards ?
Yes. They both use a nano-SIM. You will want to restore them to their out of box state before doing so.

My daughter but in my sim card and loged into my iunes account to get apps untill she got her own sim but my contacts appeared on her phone so when she got her own sim she deleted the contacts of her phone it deleted them of mine too. how do i get them back?
The SIM has nothing to do with that. She used your Apple ID to buy apps/music, thus your contacts that were synched with iCloud got replicated on her phone. Any changes she made got reeplicated on her phone. There is no way to recover the deleted contacts unless you backed up your phone.
Your daughter needs to get her own Apple ID. -
I want to give my old iphone 4 to my daughter and need to get all her info from her old iphone 3 onto a new computer. The PC she synced with is dead and she does not want to loose all her contacts and music. How can I do this?
To effectively transfer ownership of the iPhone requires that it be "restored" as a new device.
... The PC she synced with is dead
The iPhone is not a backup device. Your computer backs up the iPhone, not the other way around. What you use to back up your computer is up to you - Macs use Time Machine. I assume PCs use something similar.
If her PC backup is dead you will have difficulty extracting content from the iPhone since it is not designed to work that way.
All her Apple purchases can easily be transferred to another iPhone. However, her contacts will be gone, as will any music or other contact obtained from sources other than Apple.
There are a number of third party utilities that claim to be able to extract content from an iPhone. See wjosten's procedure here:

Can I have in one iphone 5 music from more than one itunes accounts? My daughter and I have our music in the same pc. She and I have iTunes accounts. I have not been able to load in my ophone with my itunes acct music that she purchased in her account. I have not been able to do this. Thanks
iTunes Match is not sharable across Apple IDs. The best way to get the music on her iPad is to leave hers signed into her Apple ID on the iTunes Store and sync via USB.

my iPhone 5 has someone in Contacts that is not on my iPad or Mac even though they are all connected to my iCloud account how can I re-sycronise them?
Hello Mr Potatohead,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iCloud Contacts. I recommend reviewing the sections titled "General troubleshooting," "Troubleshooting with iOS devices," and "Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts in Contacts on OS X Mountain Lion or later (or Address Book on OS X Lion)" in the following article for the issue you described:

My wife and I have both synced our iphones to the same desktop computer. She recently synced her ipad to the same computer. Now we cannot send messages to each other anymore. any ideas?
By signing up for an apple ID it means she will be able to download her own apps and music and in future redownload if required for free. Ideally it should be the primary email address she uses as you can't transfer purchases etc to another ID.
Photos shouldn't disappear but back them up before hand. These days everyone gets an iCloud.com address so she could use this as her ID. You would need to go to www.apple.com/iCloud from a computer to sign up for this. Bearing in mind you need a mac with lion or mountain lion or a pc with windows vista onward to take advantage of all services like calendar sync and find my iPhone etc.
Otherwise sign up for an apple id with any other email address. You can do this at https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
AND Click on create an apple ID.
the applications linked to your existing apple ID will have to be redownloaded on the other ID but you won't lose them on yours. -
I would like to know if my mom can share a tv series that she downloaded on her IPAD with her apple id with my wife. My wife would like to watch the tv series on her ipad that has a different apple id. Is it possible to share something downloaded from one apple id with another apple id?
Are it's amazing what going to the apple classes can do for you, lol the problem was air play has turned off no doubt when the upgrades were done, but thanks to the training apple gave me I was able to reason the problem out yah! I love my apple.

I accidentally linked my wife's phone number with mine. Now I am getting MY text messages that I send to her. It even says my texts are from her. How can I fix it?
You can't "link" phone numbers but you can, and did add her email address to your iMessage send/receive list. This often happens when you both use the same Apple ID
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > you can be reached by iMessage at >
Settings > Messages > Send and Receive > start mew conversations from ?
You are receiving your own messages because the same email address is on both lists -
I just set up mine and my wife's iphone 4 on new ios5 and icloud settings. I have both phones on one account and actually she purchases apps/music with my sign in and password on her phone.
Now that we are set up on icloud settings, her phone is receiving my calendars, contacts, etc. she does not want and does not need any of these items on her phone. How can I separate the two now? is there a way to have a different login and password for her phone so that it sets up on its own icloud settings?
ThanksShe should create her own Apple ID and start using it for everything, including purchasing.
It starts on the computer in iTunes. There are 2 elements we are dealing with;
purchasing items from iTunes (apps, music) and playing items in iTunes.
Only one Apple ID can be signed in at a time for purchasing. But you can "authorize" multiple Apple IDs for playing. As long as iTunes is "authorized" with both your Apple IDs, items purchased with these different accounts can coexhist in one iTunes Library.
Why this is important, it has to do with back up and being able to transfer purchased items to the computer.
Once your wife sets up her own account, she will want to connect the iPhone to the computer to back it up and transfer any new purchases, iTunes will need to be authorized for that to happen.
With that said, a new feature of iColud is back up. It will back up everything to the cloud. You need to turn it on, it's at the bottom of the iCloud settings on the iPhone. It is limited to 5GB for free, you can buy more. I used all 5GB my first back up, but I have a lot of crap, and there's a lot of things on the iPhone that get backed up that don't count against the 5GB, so it might be plenty of space for you.
When it comes to the iCloud and contacts/calendars, again your wife needs her own account. (ASAP) Does she have a computer in her life that has a list of her contacts and calendars. I hope so, because it sounds like her contacts on her iPhone are now mixed with yours. Or I hope there is still an untouched list of contacts on the iPhone that iCloud didn't mix. Either way Delete your iCloud account from her iPhone. Remove the data, as long as it isn't hers. This will delete all info being synced to the cloud. If she still has a list of her old contacts on the iPhone, great. If not, I hope she has them somewhere else, like her own computer.
Create her an iCloud account. Enter the account info where ever there is a list of contacts/calendars and get the info onto the cloud, then add the iCloud settings to any other devices.
Any new apps/music purchased with her account will back up to the cloud. I don't think apps purchased with your account will. She will also need to enter your password for updating these apps, because they were purchased with your account.
I hope this helped and didn't make thing more confusing. Good luck! -

How can I synch my iPhone 3G on the same computer that my wife uses to synch her iPhone 4S? How can we keep our apps, contacts, calendars, etc. separate?
You'll have to create separate user accounts to keep your iTunes libraries separate.

My daughter got her iphone first and used my itunes account for it because she needed the credit card for apps.
Then, i got my iphone and started to use the same account.
Now our phones are mixed up and we get some of each other's texts and pictures.
How am i supposed to fix it?
Can we still share the account or does one of us have to make a new one and if so, does that mean that one of us has to lose everything on our phone?
Please help.YOu can share account for apps and music, but separate for imessage/facetime/icloud
On both devices go to setting - message - send&receive and start a new convo - remove or uncheck the apple id.
When you get a new apple id go to the above settings and input it. -
Im scared if someone can use my phone without activation lock because find my iphone is turn off
I believe that the fact that you were able to put the phone into Lost Mode indicates that you did have Find My iPhone setup (turned on). The offline status indicates that it is turned off, battery is dead, or it has no internet connection. More information: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is lost or stolen - Apple Support

Give My iphone 4 to my Daughter, BUT still have it available for me!
Giving my iphone4 to my daughter to use. She does have itunes on their PC already so could connect it to there, but there is the possibility that I may wish to switch back to it as well. What would be the best way to manage this?
Could the phone be connected to my PC (and my itunes install) but we somehow tell it which of us it is?
Can we have 2 different stored/backed up 'profiles' for each of us and load that up dependant on which of us is using the phone?
There are probably things that I am not thinking of as well at the moment, so any advice here would be much appreciatedI have just had another thought
If at the point of giving it to her she did want to use my PC (and therefore the same itunes install that 'knows' me) what do we need to do at that initial point of handover? Would it have to be a factory reset, or is thee a simpler way? -
My wife and I each have an iPhone 4S. Ever since the upgrade to ios6, text messages sent from my iPhone also appear on hers? All response to those text also show up on both devices. Likewise, text sent by her appear to others as having been sent from my iPhone. I have tried turning group messages off but nothing works. How can I correct this on both phones? Appreciate any help.

You need a separate email address but you've already ruled out that solution.
