Has anyone had issues going from 1 Apple ID to 2 since the iCloud update?

My wife and I each have our own iPhones and iPads and I just got her a MacBook Pro, but we've been sharing 1 Apple ID to share apps.  Now with iCloud, all our information is being combined, like contacts and iCal.  Has anyone had this situation and resolved it?  If so, can you give me any good tips?

So yes, I did figure it out...with the help of the Genius Bar at my local Apple Store.  The answer was pretty simple and very easy.  My wife and I each have our own iCloud accounts now, which our iPhones / iPads / MacBooks each sync with, but we still share a single iTunes account.  This causes no conflicts whatsoever in terms of our personal information or ability to share apps / music purchased on iTunes.  There are a couple of things to remember, though:
- We each sync to our own computers to keep it clean.  Any music / apps we want to share we move manually or just initiate separate downloads.
- The iTunes account on both computers is the same, but our Apple ID's for iCloud are unique.
- Before the setup, the user that is getting the new iCloud account needs to backup their personal info that they want to keep prior to syncing to the new computer / iCloud account, as it will not keep it.  This way, the info you want can be restored to the device.
- I'm not sure if this solution will still work if you're syncing multiple devices to the same computer, but I'd think it would be fine.
If you're not sure how exactly to do all this, by all means, set up an appointment for the Genius Bar.  They helped with everything with me, as I had no idea what to do, and they were awesome.
Good luck and I hope this helps!

  • Has anyone had issues with iPhone 5 on wifi, mines keeps dropping the wifi signal.

    Has anyone else experience this issue?

    I have had that issue with no text alert sound and also with calls, no ring for the call but then I got a missed call or voicemail alert. Never had the blurry lines though. Right after I upgraded, the ring changed to a very short version of what I have selected and only rang once, other times not at all. This was a very big problem since I am working from my car most of the day and get a lot of calls and texts.  I did a reset with home button and button on the top as described in a post somewhere here on the forum and the problems stopped. So far so good. Give reset a try!

    Has anyone had issues with failure of the music player to launch after updating to OS5? My Gen 3 will no longer play music!

    I think a few have.
    Try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • Has anyone had issues with their itunes not coming up?

    Has anyone had issues with their itunes not coming up?  I keep getting error message 13014.  I just bought a new classic ipod and am not sure if this is the problem.

    Hi
    Your new iPod has certain operating system requirements. Does your iMac meet those requirements?

    3rd Column on the right hand side, about a 3rd of the way down. To find out which version of iTunes you have, launch it and select "About iTunes" from the iTunes menu.

  • HT1349 Has anyone had issues with the iphone 4s and facebook.

    Has anyone had issues with the iphone 4s and facebook. I have downloaded the app and sometimes it will let me log in and then it will log me out and not let me back in. I have deleted and downloaded it several times and nothing is working. HELP!

    @razmee: rather unhelpful.
    @tata - we're having the same trouble, and the only solution we've found doesn't fix it.
    1) uninstall
    2) login on PC/MAC and change password
    3) reboot iphone
    4) install facebook app, reboot again
    5) login from iphone. 
    No joy.
    Safari works, but not for the apps.
    Of course, it's Facebook that has to fix this.

    Answering this question will not help your issue.  You need to take the iPhone to the nearest Genius Bar.  That's the only solution that will reach an affirmative result.

  • Has anyone had issues with Administration\Data Import/Export\Data Import???

    Has anyone had issues with Administration\Data Import/Export\Data Import???
    I have a client who has recently upgraded from V2007 to V8.81. They were succesfuly  using this standard function to import supplier prices to their master price list, but now it has failed?
    I have looked at the file they are importing and it appears to be fine.
    On closer inspection, it did contain approx 46,000 entries, so I took the first 1,000 and created a test file, which imported fine.
    The only issue I found was Speed, with the test file of 1,000 records taking about 30 Mins to import. This appeared to get slower and slower the further through the file it got!
    Based on this, I have estimated that the whole file would takle about 13 hours to import. The client say that when they used to run it on version 2007 it was far quicker?
    In practice, it does appear to run, but the speed is the issue. Having said this, I set the whole file to run last night (over night)and this morning it had appeared to hang after about 2,307 rows, with nothing else being updated.
    Has anyone any ideas or is aware of performance issues like this?
    Thanks,
    Ian

    Always an option, but would you give your clients access to this tool?
    Not sure really.
    I have uploaded a copy of their database onto my test system and run the same routine. Its equally as SLOW
    I can't gauage if its an issue with 8.81 that 2007 didn't have, as I only have the client's word on it, however I have no reason to disbelieve them.
    Kind regards,
    Ian

    Since this first message, the "Other" space has increased exponentially.  The first time, after the "restore", it increased to over 9 GB.  Later, I tried a minor restore again, and now it's over 10 GB.  I've seen someone suggest that text messages are to blame.  If my text messages are suddenly taking up 4 GB of space, I think we've got bigger problems.

  • Has anyone had issues with Microsoft Word or Excel requiring initial set-up again after a software update?

    Has anyone had issues with Microsoft Word or Excel requiring a set-up after software udates?  I do not have product key, so unable to set up again.

    This laptop has original Microsoft word & excel provided by Mac when purchased and is legal copy.
    Do I understand you bought a Mac and it came with Microsoft Office?    I could be wrong, but I wasn't aware that was an option.  Or am I not parsing that sentence correctly and you bought a Mac and bought a legal copy of Office to install on it?  In which case, never mind.

    Has anyone had issues syncing with microsoft exchange since updating to ios 5.1.1

    No bug I'm using exchange at work I've updated a couple of people here and it's working. 
    Your IT guy can't fix this for you?   This problem usually is due to the exchange server not recogonizing your account.   You have the right server and domain entered?

    Did you check with Verizon to make sure that your destination country would allow the device you have to connect? The possibility is that this country does not have (or you are not in range) a carrier that uses CDMA. If the carriers in this country use GSM you may be out of luck.
