Can't activate FaceTime on another iOS device with my Apple ID

Do I have to create separate iDs for each device to activate FaceTime under iOS 7?

Hi,
Do you want to read what you have written to see how unclear it is ?
Which of the two account has the problem ?
AIM have been suspending @mac.com names of people that travel to different countries saying it is Unexplained use even if the people have travelled many times before.
A NON Apple Issued email is not going to be an AIM name unless you registered it with AIM
I presume the two accounts refer to Apple IDs in the first place and not the AIM/iChat login.
IF you changed the Passwords at Apple they have to stay at 16 characters or less to work with the AIM servers.
I have no ideas why you can't login to iCloud at the moment.

HT204053 Can you sync pages files on different devices with different apple ids?

Can you sync pages files on different devices with different apple ids? I have a personal iPad and one given to me for work. They are set up with two different apple IDs. I do all of my lesson plans in pages. I want to be able to create plans on both devices, but need to know if there is a way to sync the files without emailing, etc.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
No, that's not possible. A better way of working around this than emailing the documents to yourself is to use a third party storage solution such as Dropbox and a webDAV server to upload the documents.

Can't activate iTunes Match on iOS devices.

I subscribed to iTunes Match on my PC, but I can't get iTunes Match turned on in my iOS devices. In Settings > Music, there is only a "subscribe to iTunes Match" option instead of the option to simply turn iTunes Match on. What is wrong? All devices are authorized under the same Apple ID and software/OS is up to date.

Looks like I got it working.
I logged out of iTunes, rebooted the device, and signed in again. Then the toggle that turned on iTunes Match appeared.

After I've set-up my iOS device with an Apple ID for iCloud, how can I change the iCloud Apple ID?

   After updating my iPad 2 & iPhone 4 to iOS 5, I set-up each one for iCloud, but inadvertently used 2 different Apple ID's (one me.com and one that I typically use for Apple purchases). I realize this will prevent the two devices from syncing. When I try to change the iCloud Apple ID, it is grayed out, and I can't find any way to re-set it on my iPad. Does anyone know how to re-set this ID so both devices are operating on the same ID?
I have a second question (though not as pressing as the first). I'd like to use my me.com ID to sync calendars, contacts, etc., but another ID to sync my Apple purchases (apps, etc.). This way my wife and I could share apps, but each sync our iPhones and iPads to our own content. Does anyone know if this type of dual-ID set-up is possible on one device?
   I know there's a lot of confusion out there, but I'm trying to keep in mind that this is a huge upgrade and transition for Apple, so it will all work out, and should be fantastic when it does. It'll just take a little time to sort out. Thanks for any suggestions! -Bob-

Hi Jeremy,
    That is my understanding. Clicking "Delete Account" is similar to logging out of iCloud with that account.
   But your situation is different from mine, as I had been using my @me.com account for "Find My iPhone" only. I ended up using my @me.com account for iCloud and another account for my Apple iTunes Store purchases.
   That's correct--it will not delete your purchases. You can still back-up to your Mac with iTunes using the same account you used to purchase your Apple stuff. -Bob-

Can 2 ios devices with same apple id not share stuff?

Hi folks,
A bit of a long story but we've ended up with my wife's iphone and my son's ipad using the same apple id.
any app i buy for my son pops up on my wife's phone.
Can I turn off sharing? I'd like the calendar and other stuff to be seperate too.
Neither of them need any sharing to other devices either.
Cheers

Use a different Apple ID for each person. On each device, under Settings in the following areas, make sure that each device is only using the Apple ID assigned to that person:
iCloud (If you share an Apple ID here, your Contacts, Calendars, Reminders and PhotoStream photos will be shared, as well as using up the same free 5G of backup space. And it's 5GB per Apple ID, not per device)
Messages (If you share an Apple ID here, you'll receive each others iMessages)
FaceTime (If you share an Apple ID here, you'll receive each others FaceTime calls)
GameCenter (If you share an Apple ID here, then certain games/apps will share the same progress)
iTunes & App Store (If you share an Apple ID here, you'll have access to the same iTunes & App store purchases. This is the one place where it's not really a problem, since many families don't want to have to make multiple purchases of the same iTunes music or paid apps. And you can prevent the new content from automatically downloading to other devices by disabling that feature in Settings > iTunes & App Store.)

Multiple IOS devices with one apple id and different PCs to synch

I have 2 macs, 1 Apple TV, 2 iPhones, 2 iPads, 3 iPods and 1 windows pc.
I would like to:
1) sync each of them with one of the Macs using the same apple Id;
2) connect with FaceTime with each of them separately (at least the iPads and iPhones);
3) synch one phone with the Mac for music and my work PC for apps.
What should I do using my unique apple I'd?
Txs,
Roberto

When you say "sync", are you talking about physically having songs, movies, etc on your computers and devices? Or simply want to access those files on those computers and devices? *Syncing is different from Home Sharing but you are in the Home Sharing discussion forum. That is why I am asking.
If they are all in the same network and just want to access them or listen/watch them, all you have to do is turn on Home Sharing for all of your machines and devices with the same account.
For Mac/PC desktops, you can turn on Home Sharing in iTunes 11. Go to File > Home Sharing > Turn on Home Sharing. Do this for all machines. After doing that, you go to the media selector button at the top left to see your Home Shares. Or you can enable the sidebar by going to View > Show Sidebar. From there, just connect to your other computers and you will able to listen or watch to your content.
For your devices, turn on Home Sharing in Settings. Go to Settings > Music or Video > Home Sharing and enter the same Apple ID and password. You can listen to songs in Music and watch videos in Video.app.
For your Apple TV, if it is a 2nd gen ATV or later then you can turn on Home Sharing under Computers in the main screen. For the 1st gen ATV, you can either share or pair with iTunes.
If you want to physically have files (this is syncing), then you can sync your devices to the machine you want to sync with.
With respect to FaceTime, if you want to use FaceTime on your phone with someone but separately on your iPad then you can associate your phone number to FT on your phone and on your iPad, you can use your Apple ID for FaceTime. That way, if people want to FT on your phone, they should use the phone number to FT. For iPad, people should enter your Apple ID when doing FT.

HT4914 Can you use iTunes Match on multiple devices with different apple id's ?

I have multiple phones with the same iTunes ID but they have different apple ID , will the iTunes Match work with all my devices ?

I've got the latest version of iTunes & it's supposed to be able to be enabled under top panel "store" then appear down left side panel to subscribe. Which makes me think that it musn't be able to be used if you're running XP as it's not there....

I can't activate FaceTime & iMessage

Dears,
Yesterday I have been doing service (Find My iPhone) my wife
Has erred and pressed on ( Erase iPhone ) and Already been cleared Contents,
After that my wife was running iPhone.
But there are two problems:
1 - can't activate FaceTime by phone number, but by the Apple ID it's okay!
2 - can't not activate iMassage by phone number, but by the Apple ID it's okay!
You kindly help me
Ahmad Binhimd

If the device was remotely wiped using Fimd My iPhone it can take up to 24 hours for the phone number to verify using Facetime and iMessage. Leave them turned on and do not toggle them off in that period of time.

Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apples Ids?

Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apple ID's

What do you mean by "apple ID"? There's an ID you can use at the iTunes store to buy songs, apps, etc. there's an ID you can use for your iCloud account - the two can be different or the same. So which service are you referring to when you talk about an apple ID?

I can't activate FaceTime on my iPad.

I can't activate FaceTime on my iPad. Keep getting activation error "your user name/password is incorrect" even though both are correct and I'm using them to login to iTune and this support community even after i reset it to check!!
The iPad iOS is 6.0.1 and I'm in Canada so no country/region restriction. I've checked the date and time settings as mentioned on some support pages and restarted my iPad but still nothing.
I never used FaceTime before so all help is appreciated. Thanks!

TS4268 I can't activate FaceTime & iMessage on my iPad ... Would this have anything to do with already having these set up on my iPhone with the same apple ID?

As long as you're logged into the same AppleID on both devices, this is not a problem. It's only a problem if you're logged into a different AppleID and then try to associate FaceTime with an email that tied to the other AppleID.

I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

A third-party app probably cannot obtain a stream from another app. To the best of my knowledge, such a capability is not provided in the software development kit, apps being "sandboxed" from each other and so allowed to communicate only in very specific and limited ways.
I'm not completely sure what you mean by "limitations on video capture". An iPhone, to the best of my knowledge, can natively record video only through it's built-in camera, and audio while doing video recording only through the built-in microphone or mic/headphone jack. There might be a video recording app that would allow audio input from an external device connected to the dock connector, but I'm not sure.

ITunes crashed during transfer purchases now says This computer has previously been synced with an iPhone or another iOS device

The problem that have started when I was going to sync my iPhone 4 with current iTunes running on 64bit Windows 7.
I started iTunes and plugged in my iPhone.
All looked good and the iPhone came up as the device as it should have.
Next I wanted to transfer purchases prior to syncing so I started the Transfer Purchases process.
iTunes stopped working during the Transfer Purchases process
Now when I plug in my iPhone iTunes takes me to the “setup your iPhone” screen and displays “This computer has previously been synced with an iPhone or another iOS device” and only allows me to restore and old backup or setup as new.
Obviously some files were not closed properly when iTunes crashed during the transfer purchases process, how can I cleanup iTunes so that it will allow me to backup and sync my phone.
I am a software developer and am sure that a fix is not in the menu options What I am saying is that I can easily remove or edit corrupt files to get it working.
Thanks, Mike

The error message you're seeing is likely the other way around -- i.e. something like "This iPhone has previously been synced with a different computer". There's no problem syncing multiple iOS devices to the same computer.
However, the reverse is not true for the iPhone -- you cannot connect an iPhone to another computer without it being erased, even if you manually manage music and video. So, it sounds like you've been syncing your iPhone to a different computer?
Also, 5.1 (not 5.0.1) is the latest iOS.
