  • HT5621 can my wife and I share iBooks using one of our apple accounts?

    My wife and I each have an iPad and an iPhone. She has a Macbook Air I have a Macbook Pro wth retina display. I also have an iPad mini retina.
    Is there a way we can share books bought through iBooks even though we have different Apple accounts? I have Mavericks and she is going to update to it on our Macs.

    How can my wife and I share cloud with 2 different login's

    If you each have separate iCloud accounts with different IDs, you can add the other person's account to your device(s) by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and signing in with their ID.  These "secondary accounts" will sync mail, contacts, calendars, reminders and notes.

  • How can my wife and I share our iTunes account?

    My wife has an iTunes account as do I, but we are ideally trying to combine them so that we have a central iTunes library that we can both pull from. Is this possible?  We are on Windows Vista platform outside of our apple products.
    We have 2 iPhones and several iPods.

  • My wife and I share a computer, each with our own account. She gets an urgent message from Firefox to install an update and I don't. Is this spam?

    iMac running Mavericks, Firefox 31.0. She gets these type of messages periodically and I don't. However, if I go to Firefox>About Firefox I get an automatic update. This causes a lot of confusion on her part, and mine as well. It appears to be spam but then it's not.

    hello donRobo705, this might be something that is caused by rogue addons. in her account please go to the menu > add-ons > extensions and remove any entries that didn't get installed intentionally or where you don't know which purpose they serve or try to [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] and see if this can address the issue...

  • How can my wife and I use our two iTunes account on one iPad

    How can my wife and I use our two iTunes accounts on one IPad

    Unfortunately it will be difficult. iPads are personal devices like phones and done have credentials. You can of course log out of and into the app store to download purchased apps but the iPad will then have all the apps of both your wife and you (though you could put these into folders I guess).

    How can my wife and I be friends in game center if we use the same Itunes account?

    You can set up multiple accounts in Game Centre, sign out and create new account. You just need a different email address from any existing Apple ID's and a new password. You can still use the old account for purchases.

    Hi,
    the settings are gone, i guess. But even worse, I cannot get the iPad2 to play Full HD thru the Apple digital AV adaptor using apps that support  (and advertise this), like AVPlayer HD. This definiteley used to work before one of the last iOS upgrades. (I am now at 5.1.1).

  • My wife and I share apple id but have our own phones, and now having trouble with imessage

    My wife and I share apple id but have our own phones, and now having trouble with imessage. Sharing calenders, apps, music, contacts, etc...all great. But when we imessage each other. Our phones get confused and either not deliver message, or send it to and from itself.

    Go to Settings > Facetime and you will see "You can be reached for video calls at:"
    This should list your phone number (iPhone) and your email address (probably the gmail one).
    And then an option for "Add another email..."
    Choose that and enter your @me.com account and it'll send a verification email.
    Same for iMessage: Settings > Messages > "Receive at" > Add Another Email
    So you can be called by facetime and use iMessage through multiple email accounts yes.

  • Can my Wife and I share an iPad?

    My Wife and I both have an iPhone 4, and have our own set of Apps, E-mail, photos music, etc. We have pre-ordered the New iPad. My question is - can we use multiple accounts on the same iPad - or does it have to be either/or?
    More specifically, the only thing I'd like to have shared is our photos - can I set up the iPad so that pictures from both our photostreams appear on the one iPad?
    Thanks!

    re: Sharing...
    I can't speak to what is different with iOS 5 and iCloud because we're still on 4.3.4, but I'll soon update to 5.1, since it fixes some concerns we had with 5.0 and 5.0.1. (And I want to get the new iPhoto app!)
    We have a 64GB iPad 2 WiFi-only.
    My wife and I 'share' an iPad in this way:
    My wife has always been 'PC-averse'. She hated using Windows and MS Office at work. She recently retired, and needed 'something' to send and receive email and occasionally browse the web, and shop online.  A netbook would have sufficed, but still had Windows. The iPad 2 is perfect for her, because it is 'instant on' in standby with a smart cover, has huge battery life for her occasional use (she checks email once a day, and we charge it every couple of weeks), and still has lots of functionality, (and free apps for me to play with!) well beyond her basic needs.
    Email:
    She retrieves all her email exclusively on her iPad.
    I get all my email on my MacBook.
    Apps:
    You do not need to sign-in/sign-out to use the Apps you've downloaded.
    All apps are available to everyone, but...
    we don't usually use social networking apps on the iPad, and I did notice that the Twitter free app stays 'signed-in' all the time, if you let it.
    AND... Update requires signing out of one Apple ID and signing-in with the other Apple ID in order to update ALL the Apps. It's not difficult. If you're in one Apple ID and Update requires the other Apple ID, you are simply shown the Apple ID that 'purchased' the App, and prompted for that password.  If you cancel, you can let the other person do 'update' when they're signed in.
    My wife uses almost exclusively 'Home Page' apps: Mail, Maps, Safari, IMDB, WeatherBug, a Bible app, and iPod (Music Player).
    I've downloaded apps I'm interested in and put them in folders on additional Apps pages, separate from the 'Home page' that she uses. My apps are a few games, almost 100 photo apps, a few music apps, and one magazine app subscription that was free with a print subscription.
    Music, Video, podcasts
    All the music on the iPad are her songs. We've downloaded a few free TV episodes, but don't rent or buy movies on the iPad.
    All my music and podcasts are on my MacBook exclusively.
    Photos:
    I shoot most photos with a Canon point & shoot and upload everything to my MacBook iPhoto.
    I upload family event photos directly from the SD memory cards to her iPad 2 with the camera connection kit. I've used the built-in iPad cameras to 'play' with the photo apps I've downloaded, and occasionally I manipulate some of the Canon images. If I want a copy of one or two back on my Mac, I email them from the iPad.
    Backup/Sync:
    Since we're still on iOS 4, backup and sync are done on two user identities on my MacBook, rather than iCloud. Neither account is set to automatically sync. I do only manual backups on both accounts.
    Problems?
    Not really. It took a while to 'grow' organically into this arrangement. Once I accidentally synced to my account, and all the apps I had downloaded moved out of the folders I had created, so I had to re-create and re-arrange them. Time consuming, but no apps or data was lost.

  • Can my wife and I share when we have separate Apple IDs

    My wife and I have seperate Apple IDs for our Macs and iPhones. We now have a couple Apple TVs and we are trying to sort out the best way to setup so we can see each of our content from iCloud and also to watch moves, play music from whatever of our accounts we purchased.
    It is totally confusing and not intuitive how best to do this. Does anyone have a best practice.
    My in-laws just use one Apple ID for everything but that doesn't work for us as we consume too much content and I don't always want to see what Apple my wife buys, etc.
    Also, between the 2 of us and our daughter. we have 3 Macbooks, 3 iPhones, 3, iPads and iPod and 2 Apple TV's. Is seems like Apple limits us to 5 devices. Clearly, we are good customers! Any advice anyone?

    There are two settings on the Apple TV that will interest you.
    Settings > iTunes Store > Apple ID's.
    Here you can set up both your accounts and once both are set up you can use this option to switch between them. Switching your ID for the iTunes store will change the content in the movies, TV shows and music apps on the Apple TV.
    Settings > iCloud.
    Here you can log out of your Apple ID and into another one. Note this is not as convenient as being able two switch as above. Changing your ID for iCloud will change the photos in photo stream.
    Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

  • Can my wife and I share the same Apple ID on each of our iPhones?

    I'm trying to set hers up and now it's showing each of our contacts in the other's contacts list (in addition to our own).  Now I'm worried that we'd have the same apps and end up with each other's email if I proceed.  Can we have separate settings while sharing the same Apple ID??

    Actually he can.
    Sign into iCloud using husband and wife's individual unique apple id.
    But sign in iTunes store or App store or iBook store using a single apple id (be it husband's or wife's)... both iPhones can have the same media (ie, books, songs, videos, apps), but different iCloud account to manage different emails, find my iphone, iMessage, calendars, notes, reminders, etc...
    Just have to remember to sign out and sign in using different ID.
    iOS4.x.x does not support this, but iOS5 does.
    I am using 3 different Apple IDs to access Apps, iTunes and iCloud respectively.

  • HT5557 how do my wife and I share books we've purchased on our devices but under separate itunes accounts

    My wife and I both have iphone 4s phones and I have and ipad2 and she has an ipad3, how do we share ibooks that we've purchased thru our seperate itunes accounts

    You cannot. Content can only be downloaded on other devices using the same ID. You own the book, and the license to that book does not permit sharing.
