Does anyone know how you can save your apps and games on your iPad when you switch iTunes accounts?

We are a family of 5, each with our own Apple devices (at least 2 per member).  We have been using one iTunes account for the devices with the exception of my wife's iPhone.  All of the kids devices have been on my iTunes account.  We would now like to set each of the kids up with their own iTunes account but we are concerned that to do so will mean that we will have to repurchase all of the apps and games and that the progressive games like Dragonvale will be lost. Can anyone help?
Thanks

You can't. Just buy another one just for them. :)

  • Does anyone know how I can record the screen and myself at the same time?

    I have seen videos of people using their isigght camera to record their screen and a video of them is in the shape of a square on top of a corner of the screen.

    I'm not certain I know what you want to do, but consider these ideas:
    (1) If you have seen a video of people doing it, the people who made the video surely know how. Ask them if you can.
    (2) You may be able to do what you want with this app:
      http://b-l-a-c-k-o-p.com/CamCamX.html
    (3) The easiest way I was able to record my screen and simultaneous video of me in a window in the top corner of my display was to use two webcams. I used QuickTimeX to make a screen recording while I used my built-in iSight to show me moving in my Photo Booth window on the display.

  • I have a photo set as my wallpaper, but after a restore it is not in my photos. Does anyone know how I can save the wallpaper photo back.  It is not in my wallpaper photos either

    My wallpaper photo is not stored in my list of wallpaper photos, or in my photos.
    Still displayed as my wallpaper.
    How do I save this photo back into my photos

    No, it is nowhere, just my wallpaper.
    It must be somewhere for it to still be my wallpaper.
    I have checked my camera roll, wallpaper photo's, which just contain the free ones provided, and my computer.
    The elusive photo is missing but is still my wallpaper.
    Thanks for your reply though, it is much appreciated.

  • Does anyone know how I can get skype (video call) to work on Ipad 3rd generation

    I have tried to make a video call through Skype to a business relation (who did not have the possibility to use Facetime) on Ipad 3rd Generation. Did this using the most recent Skype app (which claims to have been updated for the Retina display). The app works all rigt, but the video doesn't. That is: I can see myself, but the other person can't. And I cannot see the other person. What have I done wrong?
    Regards, Koos Woltjes, Netherlands.

    Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

  • I need to reinstall my Final Cut Express.  I have a version of 3.5 and then an upgrade to 4. Somehow I have managed to mislay the serial No for 3.5 so cannot install.  Does anyone know how I can resolve this.

    I need to reinstall my Final Cut Express.  I have a version of 3.5 and then an upgrade to 4. Somehow I have managed to mislay the serial No for 3.5 so cannot install.  Does anyone know how I can resolve this.

    If version 4 is an upgrade only, you will have to have the serial number of the 3.5 full version.
    If you can't find it try contacting Apple with your proff of purchase, they may be able to help.

  • Does anyone know how I can retrieve this.  Somehow my cat moved ITunes to the middle of the desktop and I now get this message and cannot open it. You can't open the application iPhoto because it may be damaged or incomplete.

    You need a more technically saavy cat, for a start.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

    This usually indicates a problem with your router or cable modem, your ISP's service or cabling outside your house.  First thing I'd try is rebooting the router/cable modem (turn it off, wait 1 minute, then turn it back on).

    I am ready to order my iphoto picture book, but I want to change the binding from wirebound to hardcover.  Does anyone know how I can do that without losing my already-assembled photo pages?

    Yes - select the book and duplicate it (Command - D) in case of problems - open it and click change theme and select the theme and the new style of binding
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
    then order after you have carefully checked the preview

  • HT5621 When I got my new iPhone and was trying to switch everything over I accidentally set up a new icloud account with one email and had one on my old iphone with another account. Does anyone know how I can merge the two accounts?

    When I got my new iPhone and was trying to switch everything over I accidentally set up a new icloud account with one email and had one on my old iphone with another account. Does anyone know how I can merge the two accounts?

    You cannot merge Apple IDs but you can go to Settings > iCloud and 'Delete Account'.  When prompted to turn off documents and data, choose the only option which is Delete from my iPhone, but on the other prompt for Contacts, Calendars, etc you can choose 'Keep on my iPhone'  Then once the Account is Deleted form the iPhone, log back in with the correct Apple ID and choose Merge when prompted.  This will merge your data from this iPhone with that iCloud account effectively putting your devices on the same account.

    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

  • I got new iphone and when i connect it to my pc, it lost all my current data and replaced it with the backup on my computer, which is from april. so i have lost all my calendar information and schedule. does anyone know how i can reverse this?

    i got new iphone and when i connect it to my pc, it lost all my current data and replaced it with the backup on my computer, which is from april. so i have lost all my calendar information and schedule. does anyone know how i can reverse this and get my information back?

    Every backup replaces the old one, so, unless you included the backup folder in your computer backup routine, you can't get back your calendar info.
    The only time iTunes will not replace a backup is, when you use it to restore from, this one will stay in the backup list in iTunes.

  • Does anyone know how i can get the older versions of the ipod software

    Does anyone know how i can get the older versions of the ipod software on my nano because my nano had a feature that when i held down the menu button for a couple of seconds, the backlight turned on.......well ever since i downloaded the most recent software, everytime i hold down the menu button, it goes directly to the menu(which im not very enthusiastic about). Can anyone please help me if you can? I appreciate your help=)

    i agree with you 100%, i really want that feature back! it was so useful being able to turn the backlight on and off whenever i wanted. unfortunately im in the same boat as you are as i dont know how to get the old software

    while cleaning my iPhoto archive
    What do you mean by that?  Do you mean you deleted photos or albums from your iPhoto Library?
    You best solution is to use Time Machine to restore your library from just before you "cleaned your iPhoto archive".

  • I had my computer repaired, and when I got it back I had to reinstall iTunes. Now iTunes won't authorize this computer because it says we already have 5 devices authorized, but this is the same computer. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

    Deauthorizing won't delete anything, and all your purchased content is safe.  You will just have to reauthorize any of the other computers that get deauthorized along with your computers old machine id.
    To get your purchased content back on that computer, just use iTunes to redownload it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US).  Of course, music you ripped from CD or got from another source you'll need to copy those files back over.
