How do I setup multiple users on 1 icloud

I am trying to figure out what the best setup is for the following:
Myself: Ipad, Iphone 4s & ipod, apple tv
Wife: iphone, ipod
I am trying to have all our photos, music, etc be available on the cloud so that we have access to each others music and photos but also trying to keep apps seperate on various devices. Just trying to figure out if I should have 1 or 2 apple id's and how to configure itunes to accomplish this.

This might help: http://www.macstories.net/stories/ios-5-icloud-tips-sharing-an-apple-id-with-you r-family/.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Here adding to the words of “Tim”, a forwarder is a DNS server on a network used to forward DNS queries for external DNS names to DNS servers outside of that network. You can also forward queries according to specific domain names using conditional forwarders.
    A DNS server on a network is designated as a forwarder by having the other DNS servers in the network forward the queries they cannot resolve locally to that DNS server. You can refer information regarding forwarders and how to configure from beneath link.

  • How do you setup multiple users with multiple devices on itunes?

    I'm trying to find the easiest solution to our family music situation.  4 users, 4 devices (ipods, ipad, imac, pc laptops), and 4 different musical song interests.  I'm sure there are millions of households that have the same exact situation.  I want to be able to pull up only my musical library, not my kid's music, and then easily synch it to my ipod.  Everyone in the family wants to do this same thing.  I have spent alot of time trying to search the forums/internet and there does not seem to be one "most popular" solution.  I did setup iCloud for each family member using a different Apple ID than my main Apple ID, and I'm happy that ALL the music shows up on my ipad.  But between iCloud, MobileMe, Home Sharing it all gets very confusing.  Some say to setup multiple computer login accounts, and others say to setup 1 playlist for each family member and synch from that playlist.
    I would think 1 itunes account allows you to easily share a purchased song with 4 users, instead of buying songs twice.
    So here are a few of my questions-
    1-Is it best to have only 1 itunes account and then synch all devices off of 1 main computer? 
    2-Or since we each have iCloud accounts, will they be able to synch their ipods from their own pc laptop?
    3-And when they synch, what is the easiest way to exclude other users music in itunes? (other than unchecking hundreds of artists)
    4-Or setup 4 separate computer login accounts on the imac and then keep 1 itunes account?  If so, how does this work when they open itunes?
    Again, I'm hoping for a straightforward simple solution.  I don't want to move & create libraries, download 3rd party software, etc. etc.  Please reply if you found something that works for your family.  Thanks in advance.

    turingtest, I do have a couple questions. 
    Number one, does everyone in your family only sych their ipods from only 1 computer?  If everyone only uses itunes from 1 computer I can see how that will work.  But what if kids want to use itunes for windows?  Will "Home Sharing" allow all their music purchased on the MAC, to be also displayed on their itunes for windows laptop?  I noticed you have PCs and also an ipad.  How do you manage your family's music on these devices?
    Also, how did you first get everyone's music library into their own library?  Drag & drop?  Is the "grouping field" you mentioned under "view", then "view options"?  What does this do? 
    Thanks.
    Sorry I missed your post earlier. Normally I follow up on any replies. This one must have fallen off the page on a busy day.
    As my kids have left home I have created for them a complete clone of the familiy library, then deleted the tracks from it they don't want. Over time their libraries will divirge, but if needs be they can still update their devices using the library at home. Handy when eldest's kit was stolen.
    Grouping is just another property, useful because it isn't generally overwritten by other software but is stored in the tags, so preserved when you copy files from one place to another. You can make the column visible and edit for multiple tracks in Get Info. Some software calls the same field "mood" or "sub-genre". iTunes has a specialist purpose for it generally used with classical music, but it doesn't seem to work very well for that and I don't use it that way.

  • How do I setup multiple user accounts on my iPad2?

    I would like to have two users on iMessages on my iPad2.  When I attempt to enter the second user email address it errors-out with 'email already in use'?

    Mikey,
    Could the second email address be associated with a defferent Apple ID?

  • How do you manage multiple users, iTunes and icloud

    I haven't figured this out yet.  I have an iTunes account, two daughters who buy most of the music on it but we all share the account.  We all have Macbooks and iPhone 4 or 4S.  I don't want to download their music and they don't want to download mine.  How do we blend iTunes, iCloud and our phones and Macs without so much cross-pollination?  I already have music in my library that has been downloaded since I got my new iPhone and activated iCloud and it's music they purchased.

  • How can I have multiple users on iTunes (in order to connect to a shared office iPad)?

    How can I have multiple users on iTunes (in order to connect to a shared office iPad)? Currently each of us has our own iTunes account, so I've made an "all office" Apple ID. However, I can't seem to get two different accounts (my personal and the office) to work on my machine. Even when I login as "the office", my personal library is still showing. Additionally, when I try to setup with a first-time use in iTunes, I get an error that I don't meet the minimum age requirement - no matter what birthdate I enter!

    The library exists regardless of which user is logged in.
    The only way around that is to create different user accounts on the computer.
    There is no way to have 20 unique iTunes users access a shared iTunes under a single login on the computer.

  • How can I have multiple users on one apple id?

    How can I have multiple users on one apple ID?
    ie: I have my apple ID with my own credit, how can I set up credit for my son under the same apple ID, so that he can still access the same apps I've already downloaded and paid for?

    I've been trying to figure out a clean way to do this too. I think you may need more than one Apple ID – one that is shared and used to purchase "sharable" items and then "individual" Apple IDs for you and your son. That's the idea that I'm pursuing for the moment.
    It seems that there must be a way to do this, App Store purchases for the Mac are licensed across multiple machines. iPhone app purchases have "all your devices" licensing. Makes me think that Apple has a process in mind for sharing an account (or associating a device with multiple accounts).
    Other things I've learned:
    - Apparently you can't merge Apple ID accounts. I asked about this once at an Apple Store and was told that there was no way to do it.
    - If you share an Apple ID the Messages app behaves in a somewhat surprising manner. It must use your Apple ID to decide where messages should be sent because all users get all messages. This can make it very hard to organize a surprise party :-)

  • Is it possible to setup multiple users with the exact same calendar?

    I am trying to setup exchange with 3 users where each user sees exactly the same calendar all precisely in sync. I don't need the users to have their own calendar. Sharing a calendar from 1 user to the others does not work for me because I need it to be
    in sync with all the users' mobile devices as well as outlook.
    Thanks

    Hi dneray,
    Base on my knowledge, it is impossible to setup multiple users with the exact same calendar.
    However, as a workaround, you can try to set up a shared mailbox within these users as a shared calendar for them to share.
    Best regards,

  • Can I setup multiple user login accounts?

    1. Like a normal macbook computer, can I setup multiple user account with password?
    2. If it's single user only, can I setup password on an ipad? thanks

    You cannot setup multiple user accounts like on a computer. You can set up a passcode to lock the device. Settings>General>Passcode Lock.

  • How do I setup Multiple Inputs on a single card into multiple tracks (devices) in Adobe Audition?

    With a single Audigy 2 Card, how do I setup to record from two of the inputs (line-in and mic) into separate tracks in Adobe Audition 1.5?
    I am trying to get the different inputs to list as different devices in Adobe Audition 1.5 so that I can record to multiple tracks simultaneously with different input.
    Is it possible?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you

    I need to know the same thing when using an Audigy2 ZS Platinum Pro. Neither the users manual nor the website provide anything more technical than how to hook up speakers wires.
    If you cannot multitrack from the multiple inputs, is the IEE 1394 (firewire) port capable of 6 pin connection to a Yamaha digital mixer with an MLan digital I/O card. If so, will the 16in/16out from the MLan pass through and be recognized by Adobe Audition?
    Thanks
