Can I share a paid app with another iPad in my family

Can I share a paid app with another family member

the key to sharing apps is that they all have to be on the same Apple ID. So if you have the same Apple ID on all the devices, they can share apps.
You may want to research into messages, etc because that can be one of the pitfalls of sharing the ID's.

  • Can I share books I bought with another iPad user?

    My wife and I each have an iPad. She's just bought a book via the iBooks app which she loves and would like for me to read it. Is there some way she can share that with me? Without me having to buy another copy? Or use her iPad?

    Hardly should be called piracy since she bought it with "our" money. Had she bought the book at Barnes and Nobles, she would pass it along. A bit of a problem with ebook readers.
    However, we do share iTunes accounts so we can "share" the books we buy that way.
    thanks for the very quick reply.

  • How can i share the pages application with another computer?

    How can U share the pages application with another computer?

    Just make sure it is for you or your family.
    If you purchased Pages through the Mac App Store, then just login on the other computer using the same Apple I.D. and you can install it at no extra charge.

    How can I share books or audiobooks with another computer?

    You can't re-download audiobooks on any computer - they are currently a one-time only download. Music can be re-downloaded in some countries, they are listed on this page. But you should be able to copy your purchases from, for example, your backup and add them to the computer's iTunes via File > Add Folder To Library.

  • Can I transfer a paid app from my iPad to my wife's iPad?

    My wife has a new iPad for Christmas. Can I transfer the paid apps that I have on my iPad to my wife's iPad. Can I just open my account in the App Store on my wife's iPad and download a purchased app that would be listed in my account to my wife's iPad. Or does my wife have to have her iPad registered to my Apple ID and account? As yet she does not have an Apple ID has not yet registered her iPad with Apple. If we download a paid app I have purchased on my iPad onto her iPad does this automatically mean that her iPad is registered to my account and that this cannot be changed?

    The obvious disadvantages to sharing an ID for everything is that you can't each backup to the same iCloud account, sync your own Notes, Reminders, Safari Bookmarks, etc. It's a little more work (but totally possible) in order to use FaceTIme and Messages with one Apple ID only. If you use an app like Pages, you will most likely not want to sync what she is syncing or keep the same documents on both iPads.
    You can share an ID for purchases, but you can set up another Apple ID so that you can each use iCloud, Messages and FaceTime. You actually don't need another ID in order to both use Messages and FaceTime, but you will probably want your own iCloud accounts anyway, and you need a separate Apple ID for that.
    This explains how you can add email addresses to use with FaceTime and Messages if you want to share one ID.

    The 90 day ID lockout has no bearing on whether the apps will work or not work. Once you download an app to your iPad, it doesn't matter whose ID that you used to download the app, it will always work whether you are signed into that ID or not. Your wife does not have to be signed into your ID in order to use an app that was downloaded with your ID. After the 90 days are up, and she switches back to her own ID, the apps will still work no matter whose ID was used to download them. You are correct in that she will not be able to update the apps as long as she is signed into her own ID, but she can sign into your ID and update the apps that way.
    The 90 day lockout policy is to prevent the dishonest users from giving apps, movies, music, etc to one another without paying for them again, not to prevent a husband and wife to share purchases or a parent and child to share content. Since the minimum age for an Apple ID is 13, young children have to share an ID with a parent or they wouldn't be able to download anything at all.

  • How share an e-book with another Ipad

    I want to share ebooks with another Ipad, what shall I do ?

    Well, this is a problem because you purchsed the book through the iTunes Store and therefore it is associated with your Apple ID.  Just as you cannot share music, you cannot share books in general.

  • HT1202 can I share my iphone music with another iphone?

    Hey guys, new to the forum and have a question regarding music sharing.
    Can I somehow share my iphone music with my wife's iphone?

    "So you are saying that it is possible to only sync the music from one iphone to another?"
    No.  Not even sure what that means.
    I am saying "Your music should be on your computer.  Just sync the music to both iphones."
    Open itunes, connect one iphone, select what you want, sync.
    Do the same for the other iphone.
    Or:
    You can also redownload if you share an itunes account:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store"

  • How can you share a iPhoto library with another account user

    I have recently seen the light and swapped from Windows to my lovely new iMac. However I am rather confused how I can configure my iPhoto library so my wife can view the same library in her account on the same machine (this was a simple thing within Windows, using shared folders). Am I missing something or do I have to duplicate the same library and place into my wife's account and then update each time we upload some photo's? Please help!

    This may not be the "neatest" solution possible, but it's one that works. Just as iPhoto makes it easy to share photos between computers on the same network, you can also share photos between accounts on the same computer; but you'll have to be logged in with iPhoto running.
    1) Configure iPhoto in your account for photo sharing (from iPhoto, select Preferences > Sharing> Share my photos).
    2) Enable fast user switching from System Preferences > Accounts > Login Options. This is the key to the process, which will allow you to remain logged in while your wife is also logged in. It's also a very handy feature if you and your wife use the computer a lot from your own accounts.
    3) Enable "Personal File Sharing" and "Remote Apple Events" from System Preferences > Sharing > Services. [I had already done this step, so I'm not sure if it's strictly necessary]
    4) With iPhoto up and running in your account, use Fast User Switching to log into your wife's account (ie, you remain logged-in). [The Fast User Switching menu will be in the upper right of the main menu bar.]
    5) From her iPhoto preferences, select Sharing > "Look for shared photos" if it's not already switched on.
    Your photos will magically appear in the left hand column of your wife's iPhoto application using the name you designated in your copy of iPhoto.
    Caveats: performance is not very good, you must be logged in and have iPhoto running, HP printers (if you have one) don't work well with fast user switching
    Other solutions might be possible by "drilling a hole" into your account by altering the Unix permissions. I've used this technique to make my iTunes library available to other users on my machine. Such a solution would no doubt improve performance.
    Finally, there are third-party products that allow you to manage multiple iPhoto libraries. I've never used these, but they might allow you to load the iPhoto library from another account assuming permissions are properly set.
    Hope this is of some use; I'm sorry if it's a little more complicated than you might have expected.

  • How can I share a specific mailbox with another party?

    I have a need to share a specific mailbox content with my lawyer.  is there an easy way to do this?  They will need to be able to have search capability and maintain the integrity of the threads rather than just a text file.

    You'll have to open another iCloud account - you can't share access to just part of the email account.
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and create a new ID - you will need a different non-Apple email address to do this.
    Sign in with it in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars and enable 'Mail' in the checklist there. You should be asked to create a new @icloud.com address.
    This account will then appear alongside your present one in Mail. Your lawyer can access it in the usual way - if he doesn't have a Mac he can set the account up manually using the server settings here:
