How do i manage multiple devices and multiple libraries?

Hello,
I have 3 computers (mine, my mothers, and my son's). I have 3 ipads, 2 iphones, and 3 ipod touch's that I need to manage and organize.
I want to take all the "kid stuff" off of my ipad, ipod, and iphone, and my mother's ipad and iphone, and put them on my son's ipad and ipod. Son's ipod used to belong to my mother, so it was started with her itunes account. I just synced it with his computer, but had to use her itunes account info to do it. Son's ipad is new and will be delivered soon. My 3 devices have been synced with my computer and my itunes account. Mothers 3 devices are synced with her computer. I just created another itunes account on my son's computer.
How can I get all this data moved around and put on the correct devices and the correct computers? OR, is there an easier way to do this that I don't know about? I'm pretty computer savvy, but my head hurts thinking about how to try to do all this.
I also have a Stora device that I would prefer to have all the media live on, rather than 3 individual laptops.
All of the ipads are generation 1, the phones are 3s and 4 (soon to be 4 and 4s), the ipods are all touch, but do not have cameras, and all the computers are window's based.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Sarina

Auto-renew with multiple devices and multiple accounts

Hi,
We have an app that user can create auto-renew subscription in our service. The app need one account in our service and he can create a subscription for this user in our service, so, if he make login in our app on iphome, ipad, web, android, etc. he can use our services.
So the problem is:
1 - The user in our system called XXX create a subscription with itunes acount AC1 and after one month another people called YYY in our system make login on that same device, and create a new subscription with the same itunes user account called AC1, he can? We can make multiple subscription for the same itunes user?
2 - When the transaction came to my device, i send the receipt file data to the server check on apple and create enable the content for that user. What the logic used to i know the customer by transactions in the receipt? If the user logout in app from their account, but the receipt still coming every week, how i know the customer by the transaction or receipt data after check on apple? How you do it?
3 - The user make a subscription on 1st may, i sent the receipt to server and the server enable the content to me. My app is never openned more or the app is uninstalled, i still receiving the money from that subscription if i dont call method "[[SKPaymentQueue defaultQueue] finishTransaction: transaction]" on app because he dont open the app? I have another way, like a callback service, to receive the transaction notifications, or only by app?
Im searching for this answer a lot, but not found
Can anyone help me?

My iphone 5s = apple id 1
Husband iphone 4s = apple id 2
My ipad = apple id 3
Son #1 ipad mini = apple id 4
Son #2 ipad mini = apple id 5
For iCloud.. Not quite, you want the same ID for iCloud on your phone and iPad so you have the same info on each. (so perhaps ID 1 on both.
But if you want to share your music (assuming lets say its your ID 1 that has the iTunes account), you should all use ID 1 for iTunes.

I have multiple devices and multiple Apple ID's

Hi,
I wonder if any one can help, I am trying to get all my devices under one account however I cannot remember the other log in details for the other accounts. I was wondering whether there was a way to get this sorted so that I can then use all the devices on one account rather than others. My second issue is that I have had some one else's music on my iTunes of which I do not know how it got there as I never signed in with another account on my Mac (its happened on both iMac and MB Air). Is there a way to completely remove all other id's associated, so that it only picks up my music from my Accounts? I have been told I cannot merge two accounts together, I have memory issues and have only just remembered about the other accounts I have. if only there was a way to get all the music onto one account.
I have MB Air, iMac, iPhone 5s and iPad Mini
Any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

You can't merge accounts, nor can you transfer content between accounts - all downloads will remain tied to the account that downloaded it.
If you can't remember the ids for the other accounts then if you have any of their downloads in your Macs iTunes libraries then you should be able to get their ids from them : Recovering a forgotten iTunes Store account name
Or you can try getting your ids via http://appleid.apple.com : Apple ID: How to find your Apple ID
You can get an account's password reset via http://iforgot.apple.com
For the account that isn't yours, then I'm no aware of an easy way to remove them from your iTunes library - presumably you don't know that account's password, if you did then you could deauthorise the account which would stop your iTunes being able to play them.

I have one apple ID but have multiple devices and multiple passwords. i can't seem to limit it to ONE single password.

each time i log in with my apple ID on a device it says password incorrect and i have to go through 2-step authentication to get a new password. this will work until i need to log into a different apple device with the same apple ID in which case i am told my password is incorrect and i have to create a new password. how can i make my ONE apple ID have only ONE password? thanks!

After you change your account's password you may need to log out of it on all of your devices (tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store) and then log back in with the new password so as to 'refresh' the account on them.

HT204053 combining multiple device and multiple use logons

My iTunes, iCloud and Apple IDs and passwords, both current ones and those used over the last couple of years, are not the same. Can I use one sign in for all of them and how do I do it? I do use the same email for all of them.

Unfortunately, Apple IDs cannot be merged.

How do I manage apple id on multiple devices

How do I manage Apple ID on multiple devices. I changed on my iMac but can't change on my iPhone or iPad.

in addition, if you want to change the iCloud (which you probably do), do
settings->iCloud->Delete Account
Then log in with yours. Be sure to note the settings first, because it will forget them.

HT5649 Our family has a shared computer with itune software. We have multiple apple devices and multiple itunes accounts. Can we share the computer and iTunes software to back up each apple device separately?

How do multiple users with multiple devices share one computer with iTunes software to back up multiple devices and individual iTune libraries?

Hi Goodguy147,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The easiest way to have multiple users with multiple devices share a single computer is to create a User Account on your Windows PC for each person. Each person should also have a unique Apple ID. That will keep each individual's iTunes Library separate from the others and each individual can associate and backup several devices to their iTunes library.

Select "Create a new account" and follow the instructions to set up the account.
Once you create the new account, choose Start > Log Off.

Can I use one itunes account for multiple users and multiple devices

Can I use one itunes account for multiple users and multiple devices?

The iTunes EULA, as I understand it (I'm not an attorney )for Apps is basically that one person can use an App multiple devices, or multiple people can use an App one device..so one to many or many to one, but not many to many....

What is the best way to set up devices and multiple computers for a family

I am trying to setup multiple devices and computers with home sharing. I currently have 1 apple I'd for my wife and one for me.   I want to set up home sharing for us and my two kids. We have two small laptops that stay at home and one that goes back and forth to work.
?1. Do i need to give up my apple I'd and share my wife's or vise versa or do I just enter it into my device iPhone or iPad when I want to load something from another library onto my device and the change I'd back. Will the stuff still be there then when I switch back to my apple Id.     Can I switch like that.
2. Should my kids each have their own apple I'd or just use the same one for multiple computers and devices.
3. Does a network system outside of wifi need to be setup for the computers another wards have the computers linked on a network. Or can they just be in the same place at the same time with wifi. Generic linksys Internet connection.

Unless you have 3rd-party apps allowing Windoze to read and write Mac OS Extended, or your Mac to read & write NTFS, your options are ExFat or Fat.   See #9 in Using Disk Utility.

How do I manage local device storage in Settings? I get a message that I do not have enough local storage when attempting to update Apps, and need to manage local storage.

How do I manage local device storage in settings? I know how to get into Settings, of course, but not how to proceed beyond that. Thanks.

Go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage and check to see how much storage you have used.
If you are deleting apps and other content, something about that message doesn't seem right to me. What are you trying to do when you get this message? Take photos? Shoot a video?
Try quitting the camera app completely and restart the iPad. See if the message goes away.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Would like assistance with multiple devices with multiple iTunes accounts syncing on one PC

I have had an iPhone for some years now and have been syncing with my PC without issue (first with iPhone 3gs and now with iPhone 4s). My wife bought me an iPad 3 retina in December 2012 which syncs with the same PC as my phone and shares the same iTunes account. Apps downloaded onto one device are automatically downloaded to the other, iMessages are sent and received to both devices also.
My Wife now has an iPad mini with retina (using her own existing iTunes account which she previously used for an iPhone she no longer uses). I synchronised her new iPad mini with my PC assuming iTunes would manage the device and related account and contents separately to my existing account and 2 devices. However this has caused an issue with the sharing of apps. Since doing so I have started seeing updates available on my devices for apps which I have never downloaded, but my wife has. If I tell my iPad to update said apps, I am asked for my Wife's iTunes account password.
On doing some searching via google I now understand that I should have created a second windows profile on my PC for my wife and installed iTunes onto this profile for the purposes of syncing her device.
I would very much like to do this, but would like some assistance on the best course of action for doing so. If I proceed and created a second profile and sync her device to this, I presume I would need to tell iTunes to treat her iPad as a new device (and wonder what would happen to her existing content)? Assuming we do this, I presume the issue of my seeing her app updates would still persist?
Could someone advise if they have any experience with similar issues/queries?

How do I manage 2 Ipads and 2 iphones on one ITunes account.

How do I manage 2 Ipads and 2 iphones on one ITunes account. Each device has a different name. But every time I plug them into iTunes on my Pc all the apps get screwed up. apps disappear etc. I have "sync apps" selected without automatic updates. I'm thinking I should have this unselected, but that does make sense to me. Shouldn't I be able to have one iTunes account and manage each device independently. What settings to do I need to apply to itunes so that every time i plug the devices in they don't get all messed up? thanks in advance
Also, Iphone 4s is possible to rotate pictures without extra hassle of downloading software??

You can try contacting iTunes Support and ask them if they can remove the balance from your account so that you can change countries : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

HT4913 I got a new computer and have an old iPod that I need to add to "manage my device" and cant seem to get it added. When I originally plugged in my iPod to my new computer, it ended up erasing all of my playlists.Help

I have an old iPod that has all of my music and use my personal computer to keep iTunes on and store all of my music. Recently my old computer died and had to get a new computer. I got my iTunes restores on my new computer and see all of my music, but when I tried to sync up my old iPod (love it!), I ended up erasing all of my playlist. In my "manage my device" I see my iPhone, my iPad, but I do not see my iPod. How can I add my iPod to "my manage my Devices" and get it synced up? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
BTW - Somehow I was able to restore my iPod back to Factory Settings.

There are lots of ideas floating on the web for this particular issue - all of which I tried. I had the same problem and it turned out to be my USB cable. I thought the cable was fine as it would charge my phone and play but the data transfer pin was bent. I replaced the cable and it fixed the problem. Worth a shot as it is an easy fix!

Planning for product using multiple bom and multiple recipe involving SOP

Hi friends,
The problem. Currently we have maintained single BOM and single recipe (The BOM and Recipe used for MRP) for long term planning run. The FMCG sector of Client requested to have multiple BOMs and multiple recipes in the long term planning run. I.e. The planning is done quarterly and they wanted to use different BOMs and Different recipes for each quarter. But since the existing system has configured to use a single BOM and a single recipe we have a problem to use the long term planning run with the current setups.The problem we have is in this 001 planning scenario.
appreciate if you can help me how to accommodate multiple BOMs and recepis in the long term planning run.
thanks and regards
