Can i have more than one phone number on my itunes account?

My son and I use the same apple ID. He has a separate phone number to me and wants to use imessage on his ipad.
How can I set up my account to use more than one mobile number?

He would have to use a separate ID for iMessage in order to do this.  You can still share the same ID for iTunes; it doesn't have to be the same as the ID used for iMessage.  To do this, have him go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.

  • Can I have more than one device active on my iTunes account?

    ON my iTunes account I currently have two iPhones and one iPod touch. Everything worked fine until a month ago when suddenly iMessage started sending incorrectly between the iPhones. We don't access iMessage on the iPod. It created a message thread on my phone with my own name, one for the email associated with the iTunes account as well as the normal thread for my husband's phone. All of the iMessages appear in both of our phones as 'sent' or blue messages. Help!

    This happens when you are using the same Apple ID for iMessage on both phones.  To correct this, use different Apple IDs on each device.  (You can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>Store if you wish; the ID for iMessage doesn't need to be the same as the one used for purchasing.)  On the phone that will change, go to Settings>Messages>Receive At, tap the Apple ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in using the different ID.

  • Can you have more than one iphone on the same itunes account

    My friends wife has just brought an iphone 5 and given his old one to her husband. They both use the same itunes account because they only have one computer. The husband has gone onto the new phone with his sim card started deleting stuff and it is deleting it from the iphone 5. They are on the same icloud account im guessing. Can they have the same itunes login in so they can have the music on both phones but a different icloud login to stop deleting stuff from each others phones?

    iCloud, iTunes & Apps Stores can be assigned different AppleID's from the Settings app. I have my phone and my wife's set up this way for the very reasons you are describing. Works well.

  • Can i have more than one ipod touch on the same account, or must they both be set up with different id's.

  • Can you have more than one apple id under the same account

    can you have more than one apple id under the same account

    Stop using the same Apple ID for iMessage on these devices.  Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (Receive At in iOS 5), tap the ID shown, sign out, then sign back in using a unique ID for each device.  (Or, just sign out and stop using your Apple ID for iMessage.)

  • Can I have more than one author creating forms on my account?

    I use this in an office. Can I have another person be an author for forms? Or will I always be listed as the author?
    If I can have another author, how do I add them?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Each person creating forms needs to pay for the service and should have their own FormsCentral account. Accounts should not be shared between users.

  • Can you have more than three ipods registered to a itunes account?

    Everyone in our family has a ipod video. so we have a total of 5 in the house. The question I am wondering about is.. can more than 3 ipods be registered to an itunes account? and if not..can we make a new account for the other two? when my son is at college would he be able to log on to the itunes or would he only be able to do it when he came home to visit? Since we would be loading the songs and videos on this end?
    Thanks.. we are all new to this..

    can more than 3 ipods be registered to an itunes account?
    You don't register iPods to an iTunes account.
    You simply have an iTunes account at the iTunes store.
    You can use this on any computer in the world with internet access. You can use this one iTunes account to purchase and play music on up to 5 computers at a time.
    when my son is at college would he be able to log on to the itunes
    He can use iTunes whenever he wants.
    You don't need to log on to run iTunes.

    Ive had a week without a phone and its a nightmare - please help

    If you are simply referring to syncing iTunes content (music, videos, etc...) then, as stated by roaminggnome and Niel, there is no issue.
    You can rename her phone: Change the name of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod

  • Can i cloud be used on more than one phone with the same itunes account

    I have two i phones one for my kids and one for me and we have one itunes/icloud account when we have i cloud on we lose our specific contact lists.  can we not share i cloud?

    I highly recommend individual iCloud accounts for stuff like syncing notes, mail, calendars, contacts, etc. My wife, kids and I have a total of 4 iCloud accounts and 1 iTunes in the Cloud account. My wife has one, I have one, my kids both have one, and we have one for iTunes in the Cloud. This way music, media, apps, and books are available across all the devices...

  • HT204053 can I have more than one iCloud email address with my account?

  • Using more than one phone number on single iPhone for iMessage?

    Is it possible to intentionally have more than one phone number listed under Settings > Messages > Send & Receive?  I know I've heard of 'glitches' where more than one phone number is shown accidentally and how that is solved (signing out of iMessage and then back in), but if you want to intentionally have more than one phone number listed there (say, the phone number of your own device and also the phone number of your work-related iPhone), is there a method?  I'm leaning toward the answer of 'no', but I'm wanting to double check.

    I thought about that. For some reason, I think that I've heard it doesn't work. Sadly, however, I don't have two iPhones with which to test it.

  • 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. 

  • My husband has paired his phone using the remote app to the TV- I would like to do the same with my phone. Can we pair more than one phone to the tv using the remote app ?

    My husband has paired his phone using the remote app to the apple TV- I would like to do the same with my phone. Can we pair more than one phone to the tv using the remote app ?

    Yes I believe so. Try it and see you can always delete the Apple TV from a remote if it messes things up.
    But we have three remotes setup to do this. My iPhone and iPad and my wifes iPhone. She has a different iTunes logon but it seems to work fine
