Do you need to use an email as an apple ID?    We have a family email which is currently the apple ID so I can keep track of purchases but i have 2 iPhones and 2 itouches. Can all 4 devices have different apple ID under the same email address. Also I wanted to know because for the game center we wanted to keep track of each individual not just o e account.  DID I MAKE SENSE

Figured it out. Thanks.

  • My Airport wireless is working for my two MacBook Pros and my daughter's iPod, but our iPad, Iphone and other iPod all say they need to set up an Airport Base Station but do not have the proper software.  I'm not sure what to do to remedy this situation.

    My Airport wireless is working for my two MacBook Pros and my daughter's iPod, but our iPad, Iphone and other iPod all say they need to set up an Airport Base Station but do not have the proper software.  I'm not sure what to do to remedy this situation.

    This might sound like a silly question, but are you sure the iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch etc.) are still trying to connect to the same network from your own Airport router, as the MacBook Pros are? If you tap Settings on them, is the network name next to where it says Wi-Fi, the right one?
    I've got a weird feeling that either in the past couple of days, a neighbour got an Airport device and hasn't set it up yet (causing your iOS devices to try to help), or that perhaps there's an issue with your Airport router and they're noticing it and trying to help out, while for whatever reason, Airport Utility isn't opening itself on the MacBook Pros like it normally should if there's a problem.
    If you open Airport Utility on one of the MacBook Pros, does it report any problems with your Airport device, and can you view/edit the settings on it?

  • Can u track my ipod if someone stole it and reset/erase all the thing on it

    can u track my ipod if someone stole it and reset/erase all the thing on it

    Very likely no.
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • I have 2 iPhones and 2 iPads all link to 1 Apple ID and I don't have iCloud storage. How do I get them on their own Apple ID without loosing stuff on my phones and pads

    How do I keep from loosing stuff to separate my iPhones and iPads that are linked

    As I stated in my question that I do not want 2 Apple accounts, I already have one with all my private information and it should be good enough regardless how many devices. I didn't tried the iCloud but I don't think I actually had it setup. 

  • HT5538 i have 3 apple products, apple ipad, iphone, and itouch. can we have the same apple id, and be able to have different facetime addresses?

    I am confused and a new user to apple products. We have slowly aquired, an ipod touch, for my daughter. Then I was gifted an iphone. I thought in order to be able to communicate via facetime, we would have different apple id's??? When I tried to change her apple id on her ipod touch, to her own, I think I really messed up, now I am unable to upload gift cards, and somehow it has switched back to my apple id? and not accepting my apple id password? My husband received an ipad, for Christmas, and he created his own apple id, which i am fine with, just having the problem with my daughters ipod touch not being able to upload the gift card, and also wondering if we need different apple id's and if that is my problem?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated:)

    Create Apple IDs for everyone individually and use that in Settings > Facetime, Settings > Messages, Settings > Game Center but keep the Apple ID used for app and content purchases in Settings > iTunes and App Stores

  • I use Comcast for email and my email downloads both on my iPad and on my macro which I want, but if I read and delete on either device it is not deleted on the other device. Anything I can do soma delete on one device deletes it on the other device?

    If I delete an email on my iPad it is not deleted on my macro. I wonder if anyone knows how to delete on one device and have the deletion concurrently work on the other device I use Comcast e mail.

    Had problems sending emails from my iphone and ipad through Comcast. Apple could not solve the problem, contacted Comcast and they stated that they had issues with the Apple iphone and ipad and told me to download the "Xfinity connect ap" did so and everything works better than before.  When I used the Apple email had to trash what I did not want on Apple and then when I went to Comcast the email were still there.  Using the xfinity ap, when I delete on the iphone or the ipad the emails are deleted at all places.  Before I had to delete on my iphone and then my ipad and then when i went to my computer they were still there and I had to delete there also, which was a real pain. Still can send and rec email from my icloud account, but comcast email are handled through xfinity connect

  • My iPhoto seems to have frozen. Was importing photos went to the import selected, it tells me it's importing them but nothing is happening and I can't click on any buttons to stop the import. Any help would be great. Thanks

    My iPhoto seems to have frozen, hooked my camera up to my MacBook selected the images I wanted imported and left the room for five minutes. When I came back it said it was still importing which I thought was funny as I was only importing 6 images. I tried to stop the import but the buttons are no longer highlighted and I can not shut down iphoto as it tells me it is still importing photos. Any help with this would be great as I have to get these photos uploaded for my assignment for school.
    Thanks

    Did you OK the option to have the application delete the photos off the memory card?  If not then just force quit iPhoto by typing Command+Option+Esc.  Then select iPhoto to force quit.
    If you did OK the option to delete the memory card I'm not sure if force quitting iPhoto will abort that function. You might try disconnecting the camera and then force quit iPhoto.
    If you do find that the photos were deleted and are not in the library you can recover them from the memory stick with an application like MediaRECOVER.  You can run it in demo mode to verify it can see and recover the photos on your card before you have to purchase it.

  • IPhone and iTouch can't connect to iTunes after 10.1 update

    My iphone (3G, running OS4) and ipod-touch can no longer connect to itunes after installing 10.1. The error message (for both) is: "Apple Mobile Device Service is not started." (Windows XP SP3)
    Following the help file, I have stopped/started the service, no good. I have uninstalled/reinstalled itunes, no good. Can you help??

    If no change after any of the previous troubleshooting steps included with this link, focus on third-party software conflicts.

  • I can print from my iPad but not my iPhone and they are synched to each other

    I can print from my iPad3 (to an Epsom printer that is AirPrint enabled), but not from my iPhone4 (get message saying that the iPhone cannot frin an AirPrint printer).  My iPad and iPhone are synched to each other.  Any ideas?

    make sure your iphone is connected to the same wifi where the printer is connected.

    Hi Jim,
    Is this temporary cache accessing my data when I play songs from it? As I mentioned in my previous post, I'm still able to listen to these songs even when my phone is in airplane mode and the download icon is still present next to said songs. This implies that the songs are already downloaded onto my phone even if I didn't opt to download them directly from the cloud -- they're on my phone because my phone was shuffling my library on a wifi network.

  • Got mini, and was trying to download old purchases but it timed out and they are all just sitting there, how do I cancel the downloads?

    I got it all synced byt just connecting to my computer instead.

    Quit iTunes.
    Delete /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iTunes.plist
    Restart iTunes and see if the *Show at startup box* is at the lower left of the tutorial window.
    If so, uncheck it.

  • Error message that my iPhone and iPad "can't be used

    I have just installed the latest version of iTunes. I am getting error messages that my iPhone and iPad "can't be used because the required software is not installed". It asks me to uninstall and reinstall but I've done this and am getting the same message.
    Thanks.

    You have it set to automatically set the time and date.  To do that it has to be able to reach out to iCloud to get the time and date and something is blocking it from being able to do so.  So either need to fix the network/Internet connection or set it to not automatically set the time.

    You can look for it.
    If you find it, you will have it back.
    If you had find my iphone activated on the iphone BEFORE it was lost, then you may be able to track it.

    Each device needs a separate address. Use an email address (gmail.com) on the iPad.
