Got 2 iPhones with different looking screens...

One is cool and white looking while the other is warm and yellowish....
Anyone else notice?

Check the support forums on Apple. You will see this is an issue that occurred with the GSM models and has apparently trickled over to the CMDA for some. If Apple deems your device to be defective they will replace it. If you purchased it from VZ then the same may be true. I know that some people have reported that their phones were not deemed defective (ATT) and were not replaced while others were able to get them replaced. Have you checked the settings (brightness for example) to make sure that isn't part of the issue?

ITunes sharing among iPhones with different Apple ID's one computer WITHOUT home sharing, shared folder, etc...

I feel like I am losing my mind, here. A few things I want to clear up before you read my question:
No, I am not new to Apple. Yes, I understand that Home Sharing works for any group of devices authrized with my Apple ID. Home Sharing is not my issue.
1. My wife and I have different iPhones with different Apple IDs.
2. We only have one computer, on which iTunes is running under my Apple ID.
3. My iTunes library is far too large to paste into a shared folder. I keep my source folder on a 1TB external hard drive (not enough space on my iMac).
I just want her to be able to plug in and copy music onto her phone from iTunes. Home sharing is great while she's at home on the wifi, but not when she leaves. I created her own user name on my computer, set her iTunes (under her Apple ID) to pull from my library source file, and she can play everything fine, except that she cannot click and drag files onto her phone.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

iTunes Match is associated with one, and only one, iTunes Store Apple ID and country-specific store. The service cannot be shared between Apple IDs.

If we sign up for iTunes with the one account with the majority of the songs, is Home Sharing no longer available to the other two accounts?
Of course it is. iTunes Match has no affect on Home Sharing.
Indy Apple Guy wrote:
A. What happens to the songs on the other two libraries? Can we never use them?
It is possible to consolidate the tracks from the other iTunes libraries into one and use that for iTunes Match. Make sure the one computer that hosts the library is authorized to play any protected content.
Indy Apple Guy wrote:
C. If we purchase songs/albums while in iTunes Match, and then decide not to use Match in the future, do we lose all our music?
Of course not. Any purchases go to the purchase history for the Apple ID that bought them and as long as the tracks are downloaded and backedup you'll have them as long as you maintain them. Keep in mind that iTunes Match is a service; you don't do anything "in" iTunes Match. It simply "is" in the background.

D. If we associate our child's iTouch, will it still keep the parental controls in place so it won't play certain songs that are not appropriate f
Yes, parental controls should continue to work as they have. Although I do not use them, perhaps someone else with experience will weigh in.

Is it possible to have 2 icloud (from 2 different iphones with different apple ids) on the same computer?

I am inquiring as to if you can 2 different icloud accounts (that come from 2 different iphones with different apple ids) on the same computer. I would like both iphones to be able to back up to the same computer since we have different accounts/pictures/mail etc.

Yes, if you create 2 seperate user accounts.

HT204053 I have two iphones with different numbers that I use my apple ID for purchases, etc. How do I get my second iphone setup on icloud? I would like to use the features of icloud for both of my iphones. Thank you

I have two iphones with different phone numbers that I use. I have one of them set up on icloud now, but do not know how to set up my second device on icloud. Both of my iphones use my same Apple ID for purchases, etc. Is there a simple way to add a device to my icloud account? Thank you in advance for any help someone may be able to give me.

To move one of the phones to a different iCloud account (if that's what you want to do), go to Settings>iCloud and turn all synced data to Off. When prompted, choose to keep the data on your iPhone. After everything is off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. This will delete the account from the phone but not from iCloud so the other phone will not be effected. Then set up a new iCloud account with a different Apple ID and turn iCloud syncing in Settings>iCloud back to On. When prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new iCloud account.
You will then have to go to icloud.com and sign into each iCloud account separately and delete any unwanted data that you don't want on the phone syncing with each account.

How can I unlock my iphone with a black screen to back up to itunes?

How can I unlock my iphone with a black screen to back up to itunes?

Reset the phone: Press both the home and on/off buttons for AT LEAST 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears. (No data loss)
If no response, connect to AC adaptor, charge for at least 30 minutes and repeat the reset if needed
If still no response, there is a hardware failure that needs evaluation by Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your country.

Ipad and Iphone with different apple ID. Changed to same, but can't change the Ipad Icloud to match with the same @me account. Help!

When I got my Iphone, I couldn't remember the apple ID, so Best Buy created one. Now my Ipad Icloud account has a different ID than my Iphone. Can I change this so all the passwords match? I was able to log in to the Ipad and change the Apple ID to match the Iphone but can't find a way to do same for Icloud on Ipad.
thanks

So are you trying to change your passwords? Or change which account is logged into icloud?
Here are the instructions for changing which account is logged into icloud. Go to settings-icloud-delete account. Then settings-icloud-sign in with the account you wish to use.

Is there any way to restore an iPhone with a shattered screen, broken home button, with a passcode and no access to computer most recently synced with?

I have an iPhone with a completely shattered screen (the display wont even show up, just a black screen), the home button does not work. I have a passcode on the device, but I have not synced the device with my current PC (I got a new computer and don't have any of my syncs from my old computer). I recieved my replacement device today, and want to back up the iphone before I activate the new device - but I get prompted to put in my code on the phone before it will allow me to back it up. As the display is completely black and does not appear to respond to touch, and the home button is broken so I cannot put it in recovery mode... What do I do? If I took the phone in to my carrier's store, would they be able to override the passcode and put my information on my new device?

Sorry, no. Given the present state of your phone, your data is unrecoverable.

How to backup multiple iphones with different iCloud accounts but same apple id?

I would like to back up 3 idevices each with different icloud accounts to itunes. But they use the same apple id so that itune purchases can be installed on each device (2 iphones and 1 ipad).
All I want to do is create a backup in case the phones need to be restored. I also want to back up before downloading iOS 8.
The Macbook Pro that I will back up to has one user and one itunes library.
Is this possible without mixing up address books and contacts etc? Appreciate if some one could direct me to detail step-by-step instructions if they exist or please tell me how I can do this.
Thanks.

With Family Sharing they don't need to have the same Apple ID anymore.
But backups to iTunes are kept separate among multiple devices; Apple ID and iCloud isn't involved at all. Just make sure the devices do not have the same name.

I have two Iphones with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID. Will that cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

I have two Iphones 5 with different email addresses sharing one Apple ID account.Both are using IOS 8.
I would like to set up a new Apple Id for one of the phones and remove it from the old account.
If I do that, can I move all of the purchased apps and songs to the new Apple account?
Also, will sharing one Apple ID account with two devices cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

Sharing an iCloud account between two devices can be done without causing issues with iMessage and FaceTime, just go into Settings for each of these functions and designate separate points of contact (i.e. phone number only, or phone number and unique email address). While that works, you'll then face the problem where a phone call to one iPhone will ring both if on the same Wi-Fi network -- but again, that can be avoided by changing each phone's settings.
Rather than do all that, don't fight it -- use separate IDs for iCloud. You can still use a common ID for iTunes purchases (the ID for purchases and iCloud do not have to be the same) or you can use Family Sharing to share purchases from a primary Apple account.

Receiving messages on 2 iPhones with different numbers but same Apple ID. Went under Settings Messages and unchecked second phone

Receiving duplicate messages on iPhones and an iPad, all with different tele#'s but under same Apple ID# ever since upgrade to 7.0.4. Went under SETTINGS>MESSAGES>SEND & RECEIVE and unchecked all but that particular iPhone tele# and Email address. Still reverts back to same problem, Any further suggestions to resolve?

Visual voicemail is a carrier feature, contact your cell phone provider and see if it is set up for you to use.

How to locally backup multiple iPhones with different IDs

Hi all, I have a simple need to backup 2 iPhones using different Apple IDs. I understand that I can use iCloud to backup each on the cloud and no issue there. But when I ran local backup for both on the same computer, here comes the problem...
The 2 iPhones have some overlapping apps, but separately purchased on two accounts. It seems that iTunes only keeps one copy of those overlapping apps, namely only the copy using the ID of the first phone in the sequence of backup. So when I try to restore on the second phone, it will simply install those overlapping apps using the copy stored locally, which does not belong to the second ID. This seems to create a lot of confusion later on when apps are updated, since the second user will be prompted to enter the password of the first ID.
I suppose this kind of scenario is not uncommon. Is there a way iTunes can properly deal with this? Or did I not do the backup/restore correctly?

Thanks, Lyssa. I guess that probably will work, but feels like an overkill for a simple task.
By the way, I am using iTunes on PC. So the default path for media folder is C:\Users\USERNAME\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media, and the apps are stored in the Mobile Applications sub-folder under that path. I wonder whether it will work to backup the first phone as usual first, change this path in the Advanced Preferences to another user created folder, and then backup the second phone. During restore, I assume one can do the reverse and restore each phone while this path in preference is set accordingly.
That's just an idea I have come to, inspired by your solution of changing user account... haven't tried it out yet. I have to say, even that sounds like an inconvenient workaround. Is there any more elegant method I wonder...?

Syncing 2 iPhones with different Apple ID's on 1 Mac

Hi,
I want to sync two iPhones 4 with different Apple ID's on one Mac. I want to do this by creating a second iTunes library.
The second iPhone which I want to sync, has already been synced to another pc. I know that when I do this, all music on the iPhone will be erased. That's ok with me. I would like to know what other data on the iPhone will then be erased:
- Will I be able to transfer the photo's to my new Mac?
- Will I be able to keep all my contacts?
- Same for all the installed apps? When I authorise my Mac for the Apple ID which is used with the second iPhone, will I then be able to re-download all my apps to my Mac?
- What about my settings on the second iPhone?
- Will the e-mail accounts be deleted?
Thanks in advance for any answers
Erwin

Syncing to a new iTunes library will wipe the phone and replace it with media from the new iTunes library. However, if you carefully follow wjosten's post here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/13356770#13356770 you can migrate to the new computer without losing everything. (You'll still lose any music and other media not in the new library but you will retain your messages, settings and apps. Your contacts and calendar will be merged Address Book and iCal on the new computer, however.) I would suggest that as a safety precaution you use the free app My Contacts Backup to backup your contacts. This backup is attached to an email that you send to your self, and can be used to re-import your contacts if anything goes wrong.

I use 2 iphones with different numbers and different contacts.

These iphones (a 4 and a 4S) are used as local phones for 2 different countries. As a result I end up adding contacts into the iphone that I am using at any given time. However, the contacts are common and may be required from the other iphone as well. THe iphones have different names and are backed up separately. How can I ensure that if a contact is added to one is also automatically updated to the other? If not automatic, how do I sync them to a common contact list which keeps accreting contacts from both?

syncing contacts, with either iCloud or iTunes, mean all contacts or nothing. You can set up iCloud, that means adding a contact to one iPhone it will automatically appear on the other one, but all the other contacts will be on both phones, including the ones you might not want there, if you insist on keeping part of your contacts seperate.
If you don't mind having all contacts on both phones, do the following on both devices:
Go to Settings - iCloud - login with your Apple ID - turn on Contacts.
Hope this helps

How to use iTunes with 2 iPhones with different apple id's

I have 2 iPhone 4s with different apple Ida's and when I connect thru USB the second iPhone installs the apps from the first iPhone.
I want each iPhone to back up only with is on the iPhone.

iTunes only backs up what is on the iPhone. You mean it installs all apps on both devices.
Select the tabs across the top and select what you want to sync to each device.
