Can I have two ipads use the same itunes account on 2 computers?

I just purchased a new iPad for my wife.  I currently have an iPad 2 with a ton of apps.  I;d like to be able to have her use the apps that I've already purchased, but still allow her the ability to sync the new iPad to her computer.  Can i do this?

Problem. You can't share apps or purchased content between two different iTunes accounts. The iPad(s) will be completely resynched (removing apps not associated with the current account) each time you synch, depending on how you synch. IMHO, not worth the effort.

  • Can I have two iPads on the same iTunes account?

     

    You can have up to 10 Apple devices.
    Use the same Apple ID in Settings > iTunes & App Stores to share purchases.
    For all other services, use a different Apple ID eg. FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, Game Center, etc.

  • HT201269 can i sync two ipads to the same itunes account

    Getting an ipad 4 to replace original ipad, but want to keep both "in-sync" together, can this be done with the same itunes account?
    Jo

    I have an iPod Touch and two iPads and I was syncing them all to the same iTunes library. I use the same Apple ID on both devices.
    Transfer all purchases from the original iPad into iTunes, backup the iPad and sync with iTunes. Then when you set up the new iPad, restore from the backup of the original iPad and sync with iTunes - and both iPads will be identical. The only thing that you will have to do on the new iPad is to enter all of your passwords since they will not restore to a new device from the backup of another device.
    Transfer purchases.

    You can use iCloud to keep all documents, reminders, calendar events, bookmarks, etc. in sync as well. If you go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and turn on automatic downloads, you can download apps, music and books to both devices and keep those "in sync" as well.

  • Can I have two iPhones on the same iTunes account under the new apple terms?

    I have two iPhones (4 & 3GS). Is it possible to have them using the one iTunes account or do they have to have separate accounts? I had heard that there may be a change in the apple terms so that you cannot do this, but not sure if it's true?

    You can have as many iPhone and other iDevices as you want associated with your iTunes account.

  • Can you have different face time accounts when two iPads use the same iTunes account?

    I use one iTunes account for all apple products but want to use face time. Can I set it up so when we are not together we can face time each other.

    Yes. In settings, FaceTime, just add an email. Email acts as a phone number. When you place a call to the other ipad, just make sure it's to that email.

  • HT1848 How do I transfer the songs from my desktop to my iPad using the same iTunes account? I can only sync the other way. Thanks

    How do I transfer the songs from my desktop to my iPad using the same iTunes account? I can only sync the other way. Thanks

    DaisyDoodle,
    The songs on your Shuffle should still be in your iTunes library.  That means you should just be able to connect your Nano to the same iTunes library and sync it just as you would with your Shuffle. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, or iPhones you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account.
    As for preparing the Shuffle for your husband, just restore it via iTunes and then let him sync it to his own iTunes library or if its the same iTunes library, let him configure it to sync only his content.
    Here are instructions on how to restore the Shuffle if need be.

    Any iPhone that lists the same email will receive the same texts. This has to be changed in order to stop receiving on all devices.

  • HT1766 can you have multiple iPhones in the same iTunes account without overwriting each phones content?

    Can you have multiple iPhones in the same iTunes account without overwriting each phones content?

    Hi sandexpress,
    As Ocean20 indicates, you want to make sure that you have automatic syncing turned off. In iTunes Preferences under Devices, make sure you have "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" checked. Then connect each iPhone, and make sure that "Manually Manage Music and Videos" is checked on the Info page for each of them. Then go into each page for each device, and select what you want to sync to that particular device. (you would do this one device at a time - complete the steps for one of the phones, then connect the next one and do the same thing).
    With this kind of setup, you can modify what will sync at any given time for a particular device once you have connected it to iTunes, but before you click on the Sync button at the bottom of the screen. If you want to change some sync options on a particular device, you would just go into the page you wanted to change (Music, Photos, Apps, etc.), make your changes, and then Sync.
    If you do not have any changes, you can just hook up the phone and click on Sync.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,

  • HT4972 Can you have two iPhones to the one iTunes account? I am overseas and using the old iPhone 4 here, but also have a current iPhone 5.

    I have two iPhones, a 5 which I currently use and an old 4 which I use as a second phone as I am overseas. I have connected both to iTunes. Does this cause any problems have two phones on the one iTune account, as far as updates, etc goes?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It won't cause any problem. Moreover, you will be able to share the purchases between both phones and have the same information by using iCloud, so you don't lose anything

  • CAn You Sync Two iPhones to the same iTunes Account?

    Has anyone been successful in syncing two iPhones to the same iTunes account. I am the main user of our Mac and my wife just uses it for email and internet browsing. Basically she uses my user account and therefore we share one contacts list, one calendar, one iTunes, and both use the same Mac Mail with our own email addresses. Both also want to use MobileMe.
    Thanks,
    trippj

    Yes.. It is a very difficult process.. First, log into 1 computer with your account and Authorize that computer to use the iPhone. then Sync your phone.. Log out and go to the second computer.. login and Authorize then sync your phone.
    It worked for me

  • How can I sync two iphones to the same itunes account without deleting

    My husband & I both have iphones & we share the same itunes account. He just got a iphone 4 and we are trying to transfer his music from the old phone to the new one but we are unable to do that. There is a msg that says if we choose to sync all the songs will be replaced with music from the itunes library. So does that mean he will lose all the music on his phone, replacing it with my library? Help Please!

    I asked a simular question. It is confusing indeed.
