Thanks for the tips. I have set up a new account for hubbies iPod and it now works. One small problem is that I could not use his actual email address since it is in use under my iTunes account. Does anyone know how to inactivate his email address under my account so he can use it under his?
You're welcome.
If you cannot find a way to do what you are trying to do, perhaps you can use different email accounts for each different purposes you have.
I use one email address for my iPod's normal Mail communication.
I used a different one to activate this iPod's FaceTime.
I use one different from either of those for iTunes.
Pperhaps you are trying to do something I don't completely understand. For use in your iPod, I do not think there anything wrong with using one email account (address) activated with the FaceTime Apple iD while checking different email account(s) in Mail and having a unique account name associated with iTunes.
According to the info, in part, on page 168 of the iPod touch iOS4.1 guide, you choose your iTunes account in Settings > Store:
Use Store settings to change or create an Apple account. By default, the Apple account you’re signed in to when you sync iPod touch with your computer appears in Store settings. You can change accounts on iPod touch to purchase music or apps from another account...

  • Face Time uses wrong phone number

    I have two iphone 5Ss on a single apple id account.  my wife's iphone/face time uses her phone number and our primary email address, while my iphone uses a secondary email.  the problem is, my face time settings has a check mark by our secondary email, but no check marks by my wife's phone number and our primary email.  even though my iphone settings for phone/my number is correct, i can't get face time to list my phone number as an option.  Although my wife and i can facet time with each other, i'd very much like to associate the face time account on my iphone with my iphone's actual phone number. any ideas on fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated.  thanks.

    Your post is unclear.  What is showing your work number?  Contacts?

    Because you can't. It's written into the basic programming of the app that it only works on wifi (likely data rates ro the such, but that's just guessing)

    No, that's not true. This is one of the 'benefits' of Lion (if you want to see it that way). The OS is on a separate partition and you can reinstall the OS without another physical drive.
    What you do is reboot the computer while holding down the 'option' key. From the list of disks that show up (you can release the 'option' key now), choose 'Recovery HD'.
    When you get to what looks like a Desktop, choose 'Reinstall OS X Lion'.  Shortly after this, you will get asked for your Apple ID. Put your own Apple ID in the box and everything should proceed smoothly from there.

  • HT204380 I am using iPad 2. How do I use face time using 3G connectivity?

    I understand after iOS 6 Face time is possible with 3G cellular network. I tried but msg comes to connect to wifi to use face time.

    On an iPad 2 you can only use it over wifi, it's currently only possible over 3G on an iPad 3 (and iPhone 4S or 5)

  • Unable to connect to face time using my apple ID

    my face time is not working

    No you don't need to set up another Apple ID. But you need to add another email address as the contact email address and then remove the Apple ID email address on that device.
    I set up FaceTime on 4 devices using my Apple ID simply to set it up. Then I added a different email address on 3 of the other devices and removed the Apple ID email address as the contact address.
    On one of the iPad go to Settings>FaceTime>You can be reached for video calls at>Add another email address and add another working email address. After the email address is verified by Apple, go back and remove the Apple ID email address from the FaceTime settings on that iPad and you will use the just added email address as the "you can be reached at" email address on that iPad.

  • IPad mini face time use how do I receive a call

    How do I receive  video call on face time. My iPad mini does not have a cellular plan.

    First, an Apple ID for purchases and and Apple ID for iCloud are typically the same, but they don't have to be. So if you want to use one ID (e.g. your email) for purchases that you can manage, you can have a separate ID (e.g. based on your son's email) just for iCloud.  Callers would then contact him on FaceTime via his iCloud ID (i.e. his email address).  The same goes for iMessage, contact would be via his iCloud ID.

  • Is there a way of resizing the contents of multiple bounding boxes at the same time using the number fields in the tool bar?

    I'musing cs6 and need to resize an image and two text boxes to a specific pixel width.
    I try selecting all of the boxes and punching in 960 px in the resizing field in the tool bar but only the bounding boxes and not their contents get resized...

    Use the horizontal scale field (and include the units) rather than the width field.
