How do i seperate my ipad from my wifes iphone on itunes

My wifes apps for her iphone got moved onto my ipad and the same with my aps to her phone. How can we seperate the 2 accounts?

I created two iTunes Library on the computer. How to do this, while holding shift and open iTunes, it will pop up a window asking you to choose a library or create a new library. Create a new library. Give it a name diffirent then you original one, like "wife". Then you still use the same iTunes account login and password. So you are still sharing all your iTunes purchases and the two device synchronize to two diffirent "library"! Note: in your wife account you will have to link all the music to your original music folder. In the "apps" tab now you can select (check mark) the apps that she needs on her device and you can do the same for your device.
IMPORTANT: after you have done the library, connect her device and sync, choose all the settings she likes and make a backup. After, eject her device and close iTune. Holding shift, re-open iTunes and choose your original library ( which it should be the other name then the one you gave to your wife) and now connect your device and synch it. Then go in the "apps" tab and select the apps you want and apply that. Synch again and do a backup.
From now on, remember to always hold shift when starting iTunes and select the library that matches the device.
Hope this solve your problem and good luck!

    Thanks for trying those steps out!
    Rtbeal, I would recommend that you contact AppleCare so they can run further tests and diagnostics to help you solve your solution better.
    If you can also access an Apple Store Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Center, that would be much better.
    Go to https://locate.apple.com/country for further support with your device!

  • My computer crashed at the same time I switched to the 4s. how do I upload my stuff from my old Iphone to Itunes?

    What are the odds,my computer crashed at the same I switched to the 4s. I had to download and start all over with Itunes. My question is how do I upload from my old Iphone into Itunes so I can get my music off the old phone?

    Iphone is not a backup device.
    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases:  Without syncing: File>Transfer Purcahses
    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to the new one.

  • How do I seperate my iPhone & iPad from my wifes iPhone?

    Ok so I see a lot of answers on here that may help but not sure and Im afraid to try with out getting better info so here goes:
    My iPhone and my wifes Iphone are both on the same itunes account this worked fine until the IOS5 update. She updated her phone to IOS5 I have not in fear of crossing paths so to speak. Now when she sends imessages to people it shows up under my name or email instead of hers big problem. to add to the situation I got an ipad for Xmas and like a dope I went and plugged it in. Now it is synced to the apple ID both her phone and my phone are. Not working well because I am now getting all her text messages in imessage on my ipad.
    So question is how do I keep my iPhone and iPad under my Apple ID but create and Apple ID for her and move everything over?? And please explain in as easy terms as possible not an itunes master yet. P.S. Im working on a PC.
    Thank you in advance.

  • How do i prevent the ipad from dropping wifi and tethering?

    I can tether my iphone 5 and ipad but when not in use the connection gets terminated and i have to do the tethering process all over again. The same thing happens with Softbank wifi hotspots, I have to re-enter username and password everytime I open the iPad.
    At home the wifi connection remains stable no matter what. Why is it only tethering and wifi hotspots?

    YOu could try 'settings, wifi' and turn 'ask to join networks' on and see if that limits it's push to automatically join the other network.

    How can I control an iPad from a touch screen which is mirroring the iPad screen.
    This is a very important application for disability students who wish to use iPad apps but do not have sufficient fine motor skills to use the small screen of an iPad but could use a large format display touch screen.
    There must be a way.?????????? Help!!

    How do I remove an iPad from my iCloud account?

    If you want to keep the photo stream photos on it, save them to the camera roll (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).  Then go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account.  You will then be prompted about whether to keep or delete the iCloud data from your iPad.

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 n above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • How do I stop my ipad from referencing an old apple id?  My old ID was deleted by an Apple representative months ago.  When I try to "update" my ipad it always references my old apple id which I no longer have a password for..help

    How do I stop my ipad from referencing an old apple id?  My old Apple ID was my old email address.  I contacted Apple and it was deleted by an Apple representative months ago.  Whenever I try to "update" my ipad (games etc.)  it always references my "old apple id" which I no longer have a password for or have any access too..help

    Problem is...I do NOT know the password for this "old" apple id.  I haven't used this apple id in over 1 year and it "suddenly" started to show up.  I can NOT update or down load any updates without knowing the old apple id's password either.  I am getting help.  I was able to contact tech support and they are in the process of helping me within an email reply to "reset" my password from that old Apple id, in the next 24 hours.           
    Thank you all for your help!  I hope we are able to resolve this issue.  Again, it is very odd that my "old" email or original Apple ID decided to appear after such a long span.  I will keep you all posted as to how it was resolved when I hear back via an email.

  • How do i keep my ipad from going to sleep during presentations

    I'm using Evernote for notes during a presentation. How do I keep the iPad from going to sleep so I can read my notes?

    Bey you have have an MS Exchange account on the iPad (through your work) and they are limiting the options you have (disabling 1, 3, 4 & Never).
    Try this...
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Select the Exchange account then set it Off.
    Go to Settings > General > Auto-Lock and you should see all options.
    Set it to what you want.
    Then turn on the Exchange account.
    The Auto-Lock settings should stay.
    However, if you go back and view the Auto-Lock settings, it will change back toonly  2 and 5.

  • How do I keep my iPad from switching back and forth from my Apple ID to my husbands Apple ID?

    How do I keep my iPad from switching back and forth from my Apple ID to my husbands Apple ID?

    Your question confuses me because there is no way that the iPad can switch Apple ID's without user input. Where are you seeing evidence of this?
    If you are seeing app updates that require your husbands ID, that's because those apps were purchased with his ID and will always require his ID and password for updates.
    If you are seeing his ID elsewhere, explain....
