Can I use Facetime to communicate between two Apple devices which are each signed into the same Apple ID?

No.
And use the new address to call that device.
What new address?
Perhaps you mean the OP needs to add a new email address for his AppleID and use that email address.
Yes. That's what I meant.
Change the "You can de Reached by Facetime At" for one of them under Settings->Facetime->You can be Reached by Facetimer At.
I probably should have specified "Change the "You can de Reached by Facetime At"(email address) ...
NOW TO CORRECT: Even though I said you could, you can't.
I tried this out just now and you can't facetime a device using the same Apple ID.
So yes, you infact need another Apple ID for this. Not just another email address.
My Bad. sorry. I don't deserve the 10 points.

I have 2 iPhones - one for personal use and one for work. They are currently connected with the same Apple ID. I would like to separate the two accounts. Does anybody know how to do this?
Just create a new AppleID for your work.
As Allan suggested, items purchased on one iTunes account cannot be moved to the other account.
However, you can put items purchased on on account onto the other iPhone. -
How can i use cmr between two EJB which are belong to different database?
Perhaps, on the EJB's Entity tabs, in the Deployment settings dialog, you could make sure each bean references a different DB (Change the JNDI name, under Database settings).
However, I don't know this for sure - you may have to use bean-managed persistence. -
FaceTime: I have a iPad, iPhone, iMac all on the same apple Id/account. Without changing id/email address can I use FaceTime between any 2 of my devices? It works from iPad to iPhone but not the other way??? I would like talk/see my kids if am away.
Hope you can help.
I have added a new email address but kept my Id, but I get busy when trying from iPhone to iPad as they are clashing. Like find my iPhone app hence trying to keep them all on one accountIOS: using facetime http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4319
using an ipad will use the email address since you can't make a phone call. see the link.
Your basically calling/emailing yourself that's why your getting a busy signal. -
if i have multiple iPhones and Mac Mini sharing the same Apple ID, can I use Facetime between the devices?
Yes, but if you want these devices to have complete capability of calling each other they each must have their own separate, individual e mail address. If they don't have individual e mail addresses, the i phones will be able to call each other because you'll be using their individual phone numbers -- the Mac mini will be able to call the i phones, but, the iphones will not be able to call the Mac mini. This is because the iphones will be using the mini's e- mail address to make the call, and if they have the same e mail address, they will think they are calling themselves, so the call will not connect.
So, the way I see it is, if you keep all of the email addresses the same, the only thing you'll loose is the ability of the iphones to call the mini.
EDIT: Thinking about it, my first sentence needs to be modified. Your iphones can share an email address but it must be different from the Mac mini address.
This isn't rocket science, but it can make your head spin. LOL -

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
iTunes content can be commingled in the iTunes library on a computer and synced to iOS devices. The computer must be authorized to use the content from the respective Apple IDs in the iTunes Store menu. -
How can I use FaceTime between 2 I-Pads sharing the same email account

I only have one iPad, but was able to add myself to the list of Favorites. When I tried to call, I was not available!
You should also take a look at the Skype App for iPhone. It works on the iPad, where you can choose 2X to expand the display. I haven't tried to add myself to Skype, but have been able to have it connected on both my computer and the iPad at the same time.
You might also consider getting a second address from G-Mail, just for use with FaceTime.

I have an iPad 4th generation and when I updated to iOS 7 I can't use FaceTime. Every time I tried to sign in I get a message asking me to check my Network connection. FaceTime and iMessage are the only application that give me this message.
Try Reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset. -
FaceTime and iCloud must be signed in to the same Apple ID to use iPhone Cellular Calls.
FaceTime and iCloud must be signed in to the same Apple ID to use iPhone Cellular Calls.
This is the error message I receive when I try to add my phone to my Mac for proximity / FaceTime audio calling. This feature worked until I changed my Apple ID. I have updated my Apple ID everywhere I can think of updating it. I've signed out of Apple ID on my Mac, deleted EVERYTHING (calendars, contacts, etc.), signed back in, etc. I've done the same with my phone, and even done a power-down / reboot and nada. I keep getting this message from the Mac.
I can't figure out where else I should look for my old Apple ID to be logged into anything or creating problems. I've gone over my iPhone and Mac and I'm at a loss. As an aside (and yes, wrong forum), have lost the ability to do SMS forwarding since the Mac no longer receives the code from my iPhone to allow this feature to work. This was lost after signing out of the Apple ID on my Mac this afternoon.
Bluetooth is turned on for both devices. Both devices are on the same WiFi network. Both devices otherwise appear to be working correctly with the exception of the problems I'm having with FaceTime and iCloud being signed into the same Apple ID (which they are).
Thanks in advance,(By the way, I should have pointed out in my earlier posting that I'm running OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 on my Mac). I Just installed latest Yosemite update while my iPhone was switched off, and when my Mac restarted, the 'iPhone Cellular Calls' checkbox in the FaceTime preferences was checked and the problem was therefore solved. Switched on my iPhone, still fine. Relief.

We have multiple devices in our family. On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes. When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name and not theirs as the commenter. How do I fix that?
CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups
Decide on whether to setup as Admin or Standard User.
Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar or use Fast User Switching
Fast User Switching allows other users to leave current applications and windows open. Depending on RAM, you might need to log out rather than use FUS. -
Cannot Turn On iPhone Cellular Calls - FaceTime and iCloud must be signed in to the same Apple ID to use iPhone Cellular Calls.
I *AM* signed into Facetime and iCloud using the same Apple ID. Why am I receiving this error all of a sudden? I make calls using my Mac and need this feature. I have tried disabling and re-enabling both over a dozen times. TRUST ME, it is NOT user error -- it is Apple releasing features before they are fully ready error!I'm pretty sure we can clarify whether or not we are on a Public Beta or not, despite NDA........

I recently changed my password for my Apple ID and now I can't receive calls on my iPad or Mac. All devices are signed on with the same iCloud account. Anyone have the same issue?
Hello!
On all of these devices, go to: Settings > iCloud and make sure they're updated with the new password. If you're talking about Macs, go to: "System Preferences > iCloud" too. -
Hello dear Creative Cloud Team,
I have a question for the student version for 19.34 euros per month.
It means that subscription "Illustrator, Photosho and more ..." contains.
What does 'many more'? If, for example, Adobe Indesign contain? Can you send me a list of which programs are included exactly in the subscription?
Thanks in advance

I attempted to compare two strings whether they are equal or not. They should return true if both are equal.
One string is based on Taxonomy's Term (i.e. Term.Name) whereas other string is based on String object.
The problem is that both strings which seem equal return false instead of true. Both string values have different special characters though their special characters are ＆ and &
Snapshot of different design & same symbols:
Is it due to different culture or language?
How to compare two strings whether both are equal while ignoring the difference in special characters (＆ vs &)?Hi Jerioon,
If you have a list of possible ambiguous characters the job is going to be easy and if (＆ vs &) are the only charracters in concern awesome.
You can use the below solution.
Before comparing pass the variables through a replace function to standarize the char set.
$Var = Replace($Var,"＆","&")
This is going to make sure you don't end up with ambiguous characters failing the comparison and all the char are "&" in this case.
Similar technique is used to ignore Character Cases 'a' vs. 'A'

Satyajit
