  • 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 :-)

  • How do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad?  I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

    how do you transfer Apple IDs from one ipad to another iPad?  I got the new ipad and gave my ipad 2 to my wife who had the first version and now I can't get my Apple ID off so she can use her Apple ID.

    You don't transfer Apple ID's from one device to another one. You sign out in the settings, )the App Store and iTunes if necessary) and then sign in with the other ID.
    Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Sign out. Them sign in with the other ID. You can sign out of the app store and iTunes as well by going to the featured Atab in the App Store and the music tab in iTunes, swipe to the bottom and access the Apple ID in there.
    You should have erased the iOad before you gave it to her in Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. That way she could set up the iPad as new with her own Apple ID.
    Be aware of the fact that if you use each others ID's in order to download past purchased content to your own iPads, you will lock yourself out of your own ID as you will have associated your iPad with the other person's Apple ID.
    In other words, if you sign into your wife's ID on your iPad so that you can download an app or an album so that you don't have to pay for it again, you will lock yourself out of your Apple ID for 90 days.

  • My partner and I each have an iTouch and one iMac.  Our iTunes only recognizes my iTouch  - how do we use two iTouches on one iMac?

    My partner and I each have an iTouch and one iMac.  iTunes only recognizes my iTouch.  How can we use one iTunes with two iTouches.
    thanks

    iTunes can manage any number of iDevices separately. Be sure each has a different name. You can only connect one at a time. Please get the IPod Touch user guide.

  • How can I have 2 devices on one iTunes?

    How can i have 2 devices on one iTunes so that they share the same music but have different apps? Is there a way to do that?

    Each can sync with the same playlists, or different ones, and can have different apps...
    Uncheck the Automatically sync new apps box on the Apps tab after connecting each device and before syncing. Once this box has been unchecked each device should remember the setting and only sync the apps that have already been selected for it, plus any you then decide to manually add to the list or purchase on each respective device.

  • Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2?  If yes, then how?  I have the software and one more load opportunity left.

    Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2?  If yes, then how?  I have the software and one more load opportunity left.
    Reason that I ask is that I'm worried that I will not be able to read or work word or excel docs that people send me.

    No. Office 2011 for Mac is coded to run with OS X. In order to work on the iPad the app must be coded for iOS instead.
    If you look in the iTunes App Store, you will find that there are many apps that allow you to work with Office files on an iPad.

  • How many ipads can i sync to one iMac?

    I am a teacher and our ESL team is considering getting 4-5 iPads for our students and we are wondering how many iPads can we sync to one iMac?  I thought it could be potentially much easlier to sync all 5 iPads to one iMac and use this one iMac and its iTunes as our sync station since I am planning on having our team all use pretty much all the same apps with our students...is this possible?

    Hi mstaum,
    Yes, they can all sync to the same iTunes library. The key is the AppleID that you will be using. Are you planning on using the same AppleID and iCloud account for all users? If so, then you will want to be sure to set up the Restrictions on each iPad to require a Password for purchases immediately, so you can prevent the students from purchasing other apps on the credit card you are using for the iTunes account....
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • HT4461 how to download non-Apple store apps on iMac 10.8

    How to download non-Apple store apps on iMac 10.8. I want to transfer photos from a Samsung Galaxy S4 to the iMac.

    If your Mac is not allowing you to download 3rd party apps that are from a source other than the Mac App Store, it is likely the security setting in System Preferences. Go to Sys Prefs/Security & Privacy/General and set the download options best for you. You will likely find the download options grayed out. You will need to click the padlock below and supply your admin password to unlock the preference pane.

  • How do I manage multiple Apple IDs on one iMac

    We just purchased my oldest child her first personal iPod Touch 5th gen.  Up until now, we have all managed our music/devices (2 nanos, 2 iPhones, iMac, iPad, and now Touch) on our iMac under one Apple ID (mine!).  We use this ID for everything from Apple TV purchases to iTunes to apps etc. as one big pool all charged to one credit card.  Now that my daughter has her own Touch we want to allow her to redeem gift cards to buy things (rather than go to credit card).  The problem is, her Touch is now somehow (automagically) synced to MY Apple ID - I am guessing because we plug it into our iMac and downloaded all the OLD songs she had from before.  Is there anyway that my daughter can have a separate Apple ID than our main one and still manage them both on our iMac??

    What do yo mean by manage?

    Note:
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
    ALso note the 90 day time period for changing accounts. Tha effects the ability to redownload previous iTunes purchases.

  • How can I have 2 variables for one output?

    I need it so that the spacebar does one thing on one frame and another thing on the other.
    I have solved this but now I need to know how can I have it so 2 variables = 1 output.
    This is my code at the moment:
    while (menu)
    if (changecharacter)
    gotoAndStop(2);
    menu = false

    My whole code is:
    var menu:Boolean = true
    stop();
    var leftPressed:Boolean = false;
    var rightPressed:Boolean = false;
    var changecharacter:Boolean = false;
    Block.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_MoveInDirectionOfKey);
    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, fl_SetKeyPressed);
    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, fl_UnsetKeyPressed);
    Block.gotoAndStop(1)
    function fl_MoveInDirectionOfKey(event:Event)
              if (leftPressed)
                        Block.x -= 3;
              if (rightPressed)
                        Block.x += 3;
              if (changecharacter)
                        Block.gotoAndStop(2);
              while (menu)
              if (changecharacter)
                        gotoAndStop(2);
                        menu = false
    function fl_SetKeyPressed(event:KeyboardEvent):void
              switch (event.keyCode)
                        case Keyboard.LEFT:
                                  leftPressed = true;
                                  break;
                        case Keyboard.RIGHT:
                                  rightPressed = true;
                                  break;
                        case Keyboard.SPACE:
                                  changecharacter = true;
                                  break;

  • In my class i am suppose to do a before and after shot, how do i have two photos on one page

    before and after shots..how do i put two photos on one page?? please help

    Good day!
    As Photoshop is not a page layout application but primarily image editing software the concept of "page" has limited relevance.
    Anyway, you could increase the canvas (Image > Canvas Size) and place the other image (File > Place …) or drag and drop it.
    Or create a new image and place both images. Whether doing so as Embedded or Linked Smart Objects makes more sense depends on your workflow, I guess.
    File > Automate > Contact Sheet II would be another option.

  • How do I have Apple deactivate a stolen iPad

    I had an iPad stolen from me. How do I get Apple to make that iPad invaid to use?

    Thank you VERY much for this answer of yours! Tonight a con artist got his hands on my iPad2, and ran. The police wanted the s/n and you helped me find it on my iTunes account. Luckily it's insured, but that doesn't make me feel much better for falling for his game! Apparently he's been doing this, in this area, for the past few nights. Getting himself free Christmas presents, I guess....
    Highly annoyed in Edmonton, Alberta!
    PS: I don't know how to assign points here, but I owe you quite a few stars!

  • Multiple Apple ID's One iMac

    My iMac is telling me the computer is already associated with an Apple ID, and since it is my husbands, I can not access my library even though I am logged into MY Apple ID on my User Login. It's telling me I can not access my iCloud purchases for 86 more days, and after that my husband will not be able to access his for 90 days.
    What gives?

    Explain this.....If you can tell me how you'll be my hero....When I try to access a song I purchased Thursday in iTunes on my work computer and am trying to download onto my home computer through the iCloud, this is the message I get.....
    This computer is already associated with an Apple ID.
    You can download past purchases on this computer with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This computer can be used with a different Apple ID in 86 days.
    When iTunes is open, my iTunes account name is verified (I even logged out and logged back in to be sure), my content is visible, but only what was loaded, or purchased ON THIS computer is accessable to listen to or download. I am logged in under my User ID for the computer and when I go to Users and Groups it is my Apple ID that is associated with my login. Both I and my husband are Admins....
    No other Apple ID's have EVER been used on this computer save mine and my husbands and we've been using the same ones since we purchased our first Apple product.
    This message drew and immediate, "Ah, yes, that is correct." from the Support person I talked to....He walked m throught all the settings you've mentioned, and everything was correctly set up for us to have two users on one computer with separate iTunes accounts. That's why I was told the iTunes accounts don't matter, it's the Apple ID associated with the computer itself that prevents the downloads....per the message copied above.

  • Can I have two accounts on one imac

    can I have two accounts on one imac

    You have no idea how happy i would be to be proved wrong on this .. there are loads of posts in the discussion forums saying its impossible. If you can point me to where we are going wrong it would be very much appreciated. This is what we have tried ...
    1. Create a 2 iTunes libraries on a single computer login (switching with the ALT key when starting itunes)
    2. Create a new user account on the computer, create an iTunes library on each individual login.
    In each scenario, the same thing happens. We can
    - Start iTunes in the right library
    - Log in to the iTunes store etc with each account.
    The problem comes as soon as you try to download a purchased item, ie if I buy a song on my iPhone then try to down load it from the "purchased items" of iTunes account it was purchased under. iTunes gives a message saying that if i download something bought under iTunes Account 2, iTunes account 1 will be disabled from downloading or auto-download for 90 days as "this computer is already associated with an Apple ID"
    Should probably have put this into the origianl post for clarity, apologies. i didnt really mean "logged in", we can log in to each iTunes account from the different libraries, but we can use the purchasing or download functionality - hopefully this makes more sense.
    If you know how to set this up properly, it would be amazing if you could share it here?
    Many thanks
