How can I keep my contacts separate from my husband's contacts?

My husband and I both have iPhone 4's and we both use the same iTunes account. But, he doesn't want all of my contacts to show up on his phone and vice-versa. Is there a way to keep them separate? Everytime we sync our phones, we both end up with the entire contact list. And now with iCloud, it's all or nothing. I tried turning off iCloud for contacts and it deleted ALL of the contacts, so I turned it back on and it put them all back on. Any ideas? Or am I stuck with them all?

I have the same problem, have you been able to figure this out?  I spend a lot of time deleting my husband's contacts off of my phone.

  • How can I keep my extensions separate from another Windows user?

    I love LastPass and can't live without it. My wife can't stand it, and doesn't want to use it, or ever see it; but if I install it, she has to see it too (including update announcements, which particularly annoy her). She would prefer to have Firefox remember her passwords. How can we have distinct sets of extensions on the same machine?

  • With iCloud, how can I keep my devices separate from my wifes on updates and sharing?

    I know that its a bit early to be asking but with iCloud coming out how am i suppose to keep my music and apps apart from what my wife has on her phone and computer? Is there a way to set up seperate iCloud accounts or do I just have to turn off her iCloud all together?
    Thanks for any help that might be out there.

    Until it is turned on, you cannot turn it off (since there is nothing to turn off).

  • How can I keep a photo image from fading away on my tv using apple tv.

    How can I keep a photo image from fading away on my tv using apple tv?

    Thanks for you reply.  When I paint, I bring up the photo as you suggested.  I begin painting.  After about 10 minutes or so, the photo goes blank.  And, I have to start the process over again to get that same photo.  It interrupts the painting process.  I think it goes blank due to a sleep function.  I have gone into the Apple TV settings and turned off the sleep function.  But, this does not seem to work.  What can I do to keep the image on the TV screen permanently?

    Has anyone figured out how to stop this annoying behaviour?

    I am sorry, but the Windows OS is totally unfamiliar to me. I'm a Mac.
    I did Goggle the issue and there are a number of support articles about this error message on the Internet. It seems to be a problem in your OS but like I said, I am not Windows knowledgeable at all.
    You either have to reregister the Windows installer or reinstall it - if I am reading any of this correctly.

  • How can I keep my account safe from enemies?

    I've made some enemies that are still my Skype friends, and they are capable of taking my Skype name, and posting it on other sites saying that I want requests for XXX chatting.
    It's not fair how I can't hide my Skype name from them, so they are guaranteed to get my name and use it for the wrong reason.
    Is there a solution to this, can I protect my account? 
    Once they send my name out, I will get a barrage of requests and it pretty much ruins my entire account. There should be protection against this, this is a major flaw to Skype and it's easy to ruin someone's account.
    Would they be able to see my name even if I blocked them. I don't want to block them if they can see that I blocked them, it will make it worse. Is there any way out of this?

    You will not be able to transfer the items purchased or the other Apple ID. You will need to reinstall the data under your Apple ID and pay for the apps. 

  • How can I keep my video sound from cutting out?

    The last couple of weeks the sound on my videos has been cutting out after I play them on Itunes on my computer, usually after a few seconds to a minute or two. I do not have the same problem when I load them on my really old Ipod Touch however. How can I fix this problem? Everything else seems to play fine except the video audio on the computer when I use Itunes. I thought it was just the tv show audio that was affected, but I just tried a couple of movies and the soundtracks are having the same problems. The root menu screens were running fine, but when the actual movies started playing it started to cut out. Please help!

    Try repair your QuickTime from control panel. Programs n features.
    If that doesnot work, go to
    Control panel
    Sound (Hardware n Sound)
    Under Playback tab, highlight each device and click Properties button
    Go to Advanced tab and change Sample Rate to 16bit 48000hz (DVD Quality) or 96000hz (Studio Quality), OK n OK.

  • How can I keep my podcast smartplaylist from changing once I've created it?

    I listen to alot of podcasts while driving. I create a smart playlist with podcasts/number (which I edit after I see how many new ones have downloaded)/most recently added match this rule, no live updating then I give it a name e.g. "Wednesday 1048pm"
    Problem:
    Often I haven't listened to all the podcasts on a playlist yet but I want to connect my ipod to my computer and start the next smartplaylist since I know I will go through them all while driving. Often my latest smartplaylist seems to make changes with the previous list.
    How can I set these smartplaylists to remain unchanged unless I purposely delete or change them?

  • How can I keep every single photo from saving to "collections""my photo stream""camera role" and just use one folder? And why do I have to delete the same pictures 4 times? In "collections""myphotostream"camera role""deleted photos" I need ONE FOLDER

    im sick of deleting the same picture 4 separate times, I want to limit everything to one folder and only have to delete one time, how? Why does this have to be so complicated

    Photos you take on your camera are in the Camera Roll and are like the film in a camera.
    Photo Stream is an independent stream of photos from all devices that are logged onto the same iCloud account and that have Photo Stream turned on. Photo Stream photos are kept in the cloud for 30 days or up to 1000 photos, whichever comes first, so unless you have a particular photo you just don't want to stay out there for 30 days, you don't really need to delete Photo Stream Photos. They are temporary. Your device will continue to keep your Photo Stream photos from prior to the 30 day limit, but if you switch Photo Stream off in iCloud and then right back on, the only photos that will re-display in Photo Stream on that device are the ones that remain within the 30 Day/1000 photo parameter.
    Collections is simply a single place which shows all of the photos that you have on your device. You do not need to delete photos from Collections. It is just a single place where you can see the contents of all of your albums.
    Photos in albums that you have created on the device itself are tied to the photos in your Camera Roll, so if you delete them from the Camera Roll, it will tell you that it will also be deleted from an album.
    Albums that you have sync'd from your computer should be removed the same way you got them there - by hooking the device up to a the computer you did the sync with, and un-selecting the album from the Photo profile screen.
    So, really, there are only two places that you need to delete photos - Camera Roll and Photo Stream.

  • CS4: How can I keep a scaled Symbol from returning to 100% when I edit it?

    I have several instances of a symbol on my artboard. Each of these instances have different scales/sizes. I'm trying to edit one of the larger instances by double-clicking it and entering isolation mode, so that I can make some minor adjustments to the positioning of the objects and paths within that symbol so that it's not covering my other content. However, as soon as I do this, the symbol "shrinks" back down to its small original size... which makes it almost impossible to judge what the symbol will look like, because as soon as I exit isolation mode, it'll return to the larger size and then visually I can see if I guessed right.
    Example, I have a "TREES" symbol. Within the TREES symbol, there are 3 individual tree shapes. I want to move the right tree a little farther right, but not too far right, because it'll cover some other content. However, as soon as I double-click the TREES symbol to edit it, the symbol shrinks so now, I can't really tell how far I need to more the right tree. Is there a preference, or a method of creating a symbol to keep it from doing this when I try and edit it?
    Also, I noticed, in the above example, as I move the tree to the right, when I exit isolation mode, it appears that the entire symbol has changed position... so now the other trees aren't in the same place (visually) that they were before. It seems as though Illustrator has centered ALL the trees in the symbol, instead of leaving the left 2 trees alone and just moving the right tree farther right. (Completely opposite of the way Flash edits symbols) Is there a way to keep this from happening as well?
    Thanks!

    If I convert (break) the symbol instance into a normal group, then any changes I make to that instance will not be reflected in the other instances that have been placed in different areas of the artboard.

  • How can I keep my iTunes folder from changing from my external hard drive?

    I have an external hard drive connected to my Time Capsule.  I have changed my iTunes preferences to store my media on the external hard drive.  Whenever I shut down iTunes and restart it, the preferences revert back to my hard drive.
    Any suggestions?  Is this normal?
    Any information is much appreciated.

    Well - first, I shut down iTunes and restarted it, the external drive was still in the Preferences.  I shut down the computer, and restarted it, the Preferences reverted.
    From what I can tell, the hard drive never shut off - I don't know what the deal is - I've contacted Apple support and scheduled time to see if there is something in the set up I am missing.  Will let you know.
