Can you setup various accounts on the timecapsule

I've just purchased a airport extreme time capsule 2TB
I would like to setup the backups basically for 2 persons.
My wife has her ipad, iphone, ipod and MacBook Pro
I have my ipad, iphone, ipod and MacBook Air and Apple TV
We both would like separate accounts to backup all our devices, for example each using our own apple ID.
Having not opened it yet I assume this is how it works ?
Thanks.

iOS devices back up to iTunes on the Mac.....they cannot back up directly to the Time Capsule.
When a Mac backs up to the Time Capsule using Time Machine, the backups of the iOS devices stored in iTunes will be backed up to the Time Capsule, so you could say that an iOS device like an iPhone, iPad, etc can back up indirectly to the Time Capsule
Time Machine will automatically create and keep separate backups for each Mac on the Time Capsule. Each Mac will normally only be able to "see" its own backups on the Time Capsule.
iOS devices can also back up to iCloud.
For more information on iOS backups, see this Apple support document:
Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
For more information on Time Machine backups, see this Apple support document:

Can you have multiple accounts on the same ipad2?

Can my wife and I share the same iPad using two different accounts? If so, how?

If you want differing accounts (like on a PC where you login to different user accounts) with different settings (like background image, icon settings per page, etc,) per account, then no.

Can you have 2 accounts for the one iPod touch without wiping data?

My daughter got an iPod touch for christmas, however she has bought some items from the store from her mums account. I do not want to use her mums account, that is for her own use. However if I want to make an account with only iTunes credit on it on the same iPod is this possible without wiping all the previously bought data?
Help would be grately appreciated, if need more information please comment or contact me on: tim.noldus1992<at>gmail<dot>com

An iPod can be synced to only one computer and one iTunes account. There's no way around that. Sorry.

Can you setup LACP across a stack with SG500

Hi guys,
I am looking at buying 2x SG500-48 switches with the stacking cables and connecting them into a ring stack topology.
my reason for wanting this is so we can setup LACP connections from our hyper-v servers to the 2 stacked switches so the we have a redundant connection to the network if one of the switches is to fail. can you setup LACP links on the stacked SG-500 switches to be in the same group/link?

Hello Damon,
The following link shows the step-by-step instructions to configure LACP ling aggregation on Sx500 switches.

What is the best system? We have 30 iPads.

That would be fine.

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,

My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?

My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?

What you need to do is temporarily set up your new 4. Just long enough to update the operating system. Then you can erase all content and settings - which puts it back to its out of box state, then set it up again, this time restoring it from the backup of your two.
So, using the same Apple ID on both - just to keep things easy - set up your 4. Just basically choose 'set up as new' to activate it, then immediately update the iOS to 7.1.2.
then erase all content and settings, which puts it back to 'llike new'...but the operating system will not reset, it'll remain 7.1.2
Then set it up again, this time choosing to 'restore from the backup' of your 2 and your 4 will be a near clone of your two.

Can you setup 2 iCloud accounts on 1 ipad?

Can you setup 2 iCloud accounts on 1 ipad (my wife and I share the 1 ipad)?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes, add secondary accounts at settings > mail, contacts, calendars.
Secondary accounts can't use photostream or document syncing.

Can't setup Gmail account - "Mail couldn't discover the account settings for the Mail server "

Since upgrading to Yosemite I can't add one of my gmail accounts.
It's my business domain which is hosted with GMAIL. It worked before the upgrade. Now adding the email address in 'internet accounts setup' I get the message "Can't setup Gmail account - "Mail couldn't discover the account settings for the Mail server "
Mail will not let me setup an email account directly in mail either.
There seems to be major problems with mail in this update.
Also SMTP keeps failing.
Yosemite is a disaster.

Try this. I saw this solution elsewhere on the boards here.
When setting up a business gmail account, something other than @gmail.com, when you try to add the account in Mail preferences, don't select Google as the account type. Choose, "Other." Fill out the name, email and password as usual. Worked great for me after having similar issues trying to get my business gmail account to work in Yosemite.

Can you have different accounts (meaning different passwords, different countries/store) with the same apple ID (only one e-mail address)?

thank you for your reply, it is not very fair from apple, since for not using your credit card, you need to create a new account and if you do not have multiple e-mail working , you are stuck! thanks anyway

Can you setup CDC on Replicated Database and not the source database

I just want to confirm the following:
Can you setup Change Data Capture on the replicated database. (SQL 2008 R2, SQL 2012)
To be clear CDC will not be setup on the source server database, it will only be setup on the replicated database.
Everything I've read so far says you can but there are pit falls and probably is not a good idea.
What are the pros and cons?
What is best practice.

Yes, you can.
Have you seen this article?
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/repltalk/archive/2010/04/19/change-data-capture-best-practices.aspx
I use replication all the way. You can replicate to a different table of a different schema in the same database. In most cases where people do cdc I find that they can use replication to achieve the same goals.

Lion 10.7.2 is the minimum reaquirement for iCloud. If you have an earlier system the iCloud Preference Pane will not be present: the MobileMe Preference Pane will do nothing whatever as MobileMe has been closed for six months.

HT1918 how can i setup my account without a credit card

how can i setup my account without a credit card

Thanks SniperKat but I don't know why for some reason the "NONE" disappeared...
I started to create an account and when I saw the credit card thing I just clicked back and back and so I closed the browser... every free app or something free I get it appears a window : " You have to review some of your information about your account" .... but I don't have an account yet because I didn't create it.... the only solution is to create a new e-mail account and go to iTunes store and create a new account with the new e-mail and be very carefull with the "Free app" this time...

HT4436 how can i setup one account for me and my kids ?

how can i setup one account for me and my kids ?

One account each, or one account for all of you to share?
Either way, follow the instructions here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Remember, if you share an iCloud account, you won't be able to maintain independent Contact lists, calendars, bookmarks etc. They will all be synced to all devices setup using the same account.
