Can you have more than one user on the new ipad?

You cannot set up more than one user account on the iPad if that is what you mean.
Obviously families will share an iPad, but they are really meant to be single user devices with one Apple ID only on the iPad. Multiple ID's on one iPad can become a bit of a hassle to deal with.
There is no way to lock apps or email accounts so that can become an issue as well. If you use the built in mail app for email, whoever is using the iPad can read your email.

Can you have more than one user account on an Ipad

can you have more than one account on the ipad.

But...
You CAN connect an iPad to multiple Apple ID's, one-at-a-time, if you're willing to share a combined pool of apps, music, movies, photos, podcasts, and perhaps, email accounts, and sync things manually.
First, uncheck the option to 'automatically sync' mobile devices in the preferences for each iTunes account, so that you're not accidentally installing or removing content when you connect the iPad to a computer.
Here's how we do it:
I have a MacBook with two user accounts and two Apple ID's: "Hers"-used only for iTunes/iPad manual sync-ing and backup; and "Mine", used for all my Mac programs, plus iPad Apps that I'm interested in.
The iPad2 is her only computing device, used primarily for email and web-browsing.
On her iPad2, we have a combined 'pool' of apps, photos, and music.
We use her Apple ID for her email, and to sync and back up.
I use my Apple ID to download a lot of free apps to my MacBook.
In the App Store, I sign out of her Apple ID and use my Apple ID to transfer and update the apps I want to try out. Then I can delete them from her iPad when I'm done 'playing', yet leave them on my MacBook for future re-installation, if desired.
To simplify email privacy, we've configured the iPad Mail app exclusively for her MobileMe and Hotmail accounts. I connect to my email accounts with the Safari browser, or from my MacBook.
Hope that helps!
I'm not certain how iOS 5 and iCloud might enhance or restrict my ability to manage this in the future.

Can you have more than one account on the ipad?

I'm looking into using the ipad in our manufacturing facility, with more than one user on a single ipad.
Can you have multiple user accounts on it, and if not how would you set up email with multiple accounts where one user can't access another's account?
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If each employee uses a web-based email system such as Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, and others, and makes a point of NOT automatically saving ID and password, each user would use the Safari browser to access email, privately and confidentially. That also allows viewing email folders created in the webmail account that are not visible in the Mail app using a pop mail server.

Can you have more than one ipod on the same computer?

me and my sister live together and we would like to be able to have two seperate libraries on the same computer. one library is already there and when the second ipod is plugged in, it comes up as a sub-library that is unacessable.

There are basically two ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
a) Sharing a single iTunes library and or user account or
b) Creating multiple user accounts.
Note: When you are sharing an iTunes library, you don't have to set each iPod to update in the same manner, you can mix and match from the options below as each iPod has it's own update settings
Sharing a Library and/or User Account
If you want to share the one library, you can set either or all of the iPods so that they only get updated with only certain playlists (you can update from more than one if you wish):
Loading songs onto iPod automatically - Windows
Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for the iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used some other time if you choose. You can read more about playlists at these links:
iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
Or you can choose to update any or all of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them: Managing content manually on iPod
Loading the iPod shuffle differs slightly but it can still be used with the others, for details have a look at this page: Loading songs onto iPod shuffle - Windows
It's also possible to have multiple libraries in a single account. To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Option key (or Shift key in Windows) when launching iTunes 7. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library.
Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one. This can prove tricky when using multiple iPods, if you don't use the keyboard command you can risk syncing to the wrong library:
Using multiple iTunes libraries -Windows
Separate User Accounts
Another option is to create a separate User account for each person on your PC or Mac. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists
I don't use Windows so I can't give you a step by step on that one, however I can point you to another web page which should help you out. You can read about Windows user accounts here:
Using Windows XP User Accounts

Can you have more than one user on an ipad

I am thinking of purchasing an iPad to replace my laptop. It would be shared with my husband - so, like a laptop, can you set up different users on an iPad, therefore allowing more than one e-mail account to be linked, different appleID's etc? Thanks

You can set up multiple email accounts on the iPad, however, and you can set up multiple emails for receiving Messages.
Is that primarily what you were trying to accomplish? If so, then to set up a second account for Mail:
Go to Settings>Mail, and click on the type of account you want to set up. Then follow the screens to input the User Name, email address, etc.
To set up an additional email for receiving text messages:
Go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive, and add the additional email you wish to include.
For the messages setting, you would just need to remember that both of you would get all of the other's text messages....
But Mail accounts would remain separate.
Cheers,

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.

HT2534 can you have more than one itunes account on the same computer?

can you have more than one itunes account on the same computer?

Yes. Either create and use separate Windows user accounts, or launch iTunes with the Shift key held down as desired.

Can you have more than one iTunes account with home sharing, Can you have more than one iTunes account with home sharing

Can you have more than one itunes account at one time with apple tv

My understanding is that the home sharing is based off of being on the same Wifi. So if someone brings their laptop to your house and connects to your Wifi and they have home sharing on they can connect so you can see his/her iTunes library on your iTunes.
I haven't tried this though. We have two laptops at home, both using my iTunes account and I can see each other's iTunes library, which I'm guessing is what you're probably doing now. I'd be interested to know if my thought above is true.

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 you have more than one movie per page?

Hi, I am creating a web site and have some movie content on some of the pages. Can you have more than one quicktime file on each page? Reason I ask is that on one page I have put 3 movie files but only one shows up when I run the site online. I am not using .mac. The website is on grapeape dot co dot uk and if you look at the examples page you should see what I mean. I get one video that works and 2 large "Q"'s where the other videos were. Odd because it works locally. Any ideas? Many thanks.
Ben

Just noticed something. If you leave it until the first movie caches or preloads - the second one appears. Is there a way round this at all? Thanks. Ben
