  • Can you use the same Apple Id on different devices.

    Can I use the same Apple ID on two different iPads? My kids just got school issued iPads and they need to have an Apple ID. They have iPhones with there own Apple ID's. We use one Apple ID for purchases for our family. Can they use there current Apple ID with the iPads without the purchase Apple Id being associated. Will they be able to load music and apps that were purchased with the family Apple Id?

    I am just a little confused about the way that you asked thes questions. But here is my take.
    1. Yes - You can use two Apple ID's on an iPad.
    2. You can use the same Apple ID on up to 10 total devices - but there is a five computer limit in that total of 10 devices.
    3. If you use one ID for some things and then use the family ID to download past purchases for free - you will lock themselves out of the other ID for 90 days.
    4. When you download a past purchase on an iDevice using a different ID - you associate that device with that ID and you are locked into that ID only for 90 days.

  • How can I use the same apple id on 2 iphones yet have the owner contact different?

    My husband and I both share apps, contacts, calendars, etc and use same apple id...We both own iPhone 5's. When we each set up our iphones, on setting in siri setting and mail, contacts, calendars setting we each put contact for our info... Well the problem is that if I change mine to my info it changes it to his, and same if he changes it to his name on his iphone it changes 'my info' on my iPhone's setting.... so when using siri or mail... we cant identify each phone.... So can we still use same apple id and have separate "my info" settings.....

    Short term solution, do this on both devices
    Settings > iCloud > Shut off anything you don't want shared
    Long term solution (actual solution)
    You need seperate Apple IDs for iCloud. iTunes and iCloud are not the same.
    Create a new Apple ID > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    On one of the devices go Settings > iCloud > Delete Account > Sign in with the new Apple ID
    This will seperate your Contacts, Calendars, Messages etc.
    You both can continue to use the same Apple ID for iTunes and share apps and music

  • Can you use the same Apple ID on more than one MacBook Pro for updates and applications?

    We just got a few new MacBook Pro's and when I went to install updates it said I need to make an Apple ID.  Can you use the same Apple ID and email address for that Apple ID on multiple machines, or do I need them both to be unique per machine?  I'm not sure how that works when you have multiple machines.

    An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services.   So you can use the same Apple ID for up to 10 Macs associated with it.
    To create an Apple ID you need to enter  your full name and your primary email address as your Apple ID. This will be used as the contact email address for your account.

  • I have DocsToGo premium installed on my iPhone4s; can I use the same app on an iPad mini or do I have to purchase another one?

    It shows up in the store as a universal app, so you should be ok to go.

  • HT204053 Can you use the same Apple ID for two devices ?

    I have an MacPro and I am buying an iPad.  Can you use the same Apple ID for two devices or should I create an new AppleID for the ipad?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The Apple ID purpose is to have the same data in all your devices and share your purchases among all your devices, so you can use your Apple ID in both devices

  • HT4759 can you use the same apple id for two phones on the cloud?

    can you use the same apple id for two phones on the same verizon account and if so can you keep there contacts etc. separate?

    If you want to keep your contacts and other data you sync with iCloud separate, you'll have to create separate iCloud accounts, which will require different IDs.  If you share the same iCloud account/ID on multiple devices, the synced data will be merged and will appear on all devices syncing with the shared account.
    You can still share the same ID for iTunes; it doesn't have to be the same as the one used for iCloud.

  • How can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

    I have two iPads.. an iPad and an ipad 2.  I registared my new ipad 2 and now my old ipad is will not let me log on and is telling me that my e-mail address is already in use.  how can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

    And by using the same Apple ID you can also share purchases.  If you have a different Apple ID for each iPhone then you can't share purchases.

  • Can you use the same charging cable for both an iPhone and an IPad or are they different?  When I use the charging cable for my iPhone on my Ipad, it doesn't charge.

    Can you use the same charging cable for both an iPhone and an IPad or are they different?  When I use the charging cable for my iPhone on my Ipad, it doesn't charge.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • Have been told if you use the same itunes account with two iphone you will receive each others text messages, is this true

    Have been told if you use the same itunes account on two iphones, you will receive each others text messages, is this true?

    you can use the same itunes id for purchases and so on, but have separate icloud id's for imessaging and all the icloud stuff. it's not preferable, but it isn't a problem either.

  • Migrating to Sharepoint 2013 from 2010 - Can you use the same URL for the Web Application without affecting the 2010 environment?

    Hi,
    I am currently trying to migrate our SharePoint 2010 environment to SharePoint 2013. The first thing I'm doing is creating a 2013 development environment to verify that this migration goes smoothly. I'm also doing this so that we will have a testing environment
    after the upgrade to 2013 is complete. 
    So here is my question: I have a 3 tier farm including; 1 app server, 1 wfe, and 1 sql server. I have made a copy of our SharePoint 2010 database and installed that on our sql server 2012 sever (This new environment is on 3 completely separate servers from
    our 2010 environment). I have also installed the prereqs and configured SharePoint 2013 on the App server and wfe servers, as well as configuring the necessary service applications (I have created a completely new 2013 database where I will migrate my 2010
    database content when I'm ready).
    I am now at the point where I need to create a new web application on the 2013 app server, where I will be migrating the copied 2010 database.  (Also note that we have a 2010 development site called https://[email protected])
    When I go to create a new web application in our 2013 dev environment, can I use the same url (https://[email protected]) to create this web app, or will this screw up our current 2010 dev environment?
    I'm new to SharePoint migrations, so I apologize if this is a stupid question.
    Thanks in advance for any insight you can share on this!
    Boe Barlage

    So, what you are recommending is that before I create a web application in my new 2013 environment, I need go into my hosts file on my 2013 app server and alter it to point to my 2013 wfe.
    Then after I do that, then I can create my new web application on my 2013 app server with the same url as my 2010 testing environment
    (https://[email protected]). 
    Then after that I should be able to access my new sharepoint 2013 environment at the same URL (https://[email protected])?
    I must be missing something.
    In your first reply, you told me to alter the host file on my 2010 app server and point it to my 2010
    wfe (I guess I thought it probably already is). You also told me to alter the host file on my 2013 app server and point it to my 2013 wfe. 
    so I am confused on after I do this, what url would I access my 2010 test environment, and what url would
    I access my 2013 test environment?
    I am fine with having my test environment as a different URL until I am totally ready to roll everything over and kill the 2010 site. But I want to make sure that when I migrate my database, none of the site links are broken.
    I also want to make sure that if I proceed this way, I want to be sure that I will be able to modify the URL to what my 2010 environment is (without a lot of headaches) when I am ready to kill the 2010 site.
    Thanks again for your help, it's much appreciated!

  • Can I use the same app on 2 iPhones if one is no longer connected to ATT?

    I have a iPhone 3G. I want to eventually get a new one (when the next gen ones are available). I want to keep the old one so one of my kids can use it as a "touch". Can I sync the same apps to each phone? I know you can share the same app on an iPhone and iPad, but not sure if this can be done with 2 phones.
    Thanks

    You can sync as many devices as you want to the same itunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. Itunes will keep everything straight, by device, on subsequent syncs.

  • Can I use the same app store AppleID on two iMac computers one in Australia and one in Thailand, for purchasing upgrades

    I have two iMAC computers, one at home in Sydney Australia and one in Korat Thailand.
    I want to software updates through my Sydney AppleID.
    When an attempt was made to update OSX the server rejected the attempt in Thailand

    Sure - as long as you use the same apple ID on both devices you can download it to both devices. Why is is greyed out on her iPad is not clear to me - other than the app is actually on her iPad via Automatic Downloads and she doesn't realize that its on the device. Is that possible?
    Search for the app on her iPad- swipe to the right from the first home screen and type in the name of the App at the top in the search field. Does it show up?
