How to share apple account with two phones

Can you put two iphones onto one Apple account?  I want to be able to share music and apps in my family, but don't want to share messaging, face time.  How do I do this?

They would have to sign into their account in Settings>iTunes and App Store to make a purchase with their account.
I do not understand what you mean by:
"avoiding me to absorb them on my iphone".
On your Phone and the other devices you can go to Settings>iTunes and App Store and turn off Automatic Downloads. Automatic Downloads mean that if something is purchased on one device, it will automatically be download on other devices that use the same Apple ID

    I have one itunes account with two phones assigned to it, sons and daughters, (5s). When i phone one of the numbers both phones have started to ring, only when connected to wifi at home. The problem does not occur when not connected to wifi. How do i resolve this please? texting is fine it is only when ringing one of the numbers.

  • How to share an account with kids

    Hey,
    We have 4 different devices at home : iphone 4, Ipad 2, Ipad 1 ant IpodTouch 5.
    I need to find out the possibility to share my main account (from my itunes account with my iphone) with my kids whom are using an ipod and an ipad ?
    The deal would be them to be able to access to their own appstore for free downloads avoiding me to absorb it to my iphone at the same time !

  • One apple account with two icloud accounts

    Our family has 5 devices on our apple account?  I recently upgraded to 5c and found out we do not have enough memory in icloud for everything.  Apple store said set up a new icloud account for my phone only.  Done but now everyone else is now on my cloud.  Can u have multiple iCloud's on one apple account?

    Each iCloud account has a unique ID.  If you want a separate iCloud account you would need to create it using a different Apple ID.  You can continue to share the same ID for other services such as iTunes; the ID for these services does not need to be the same as your iCloud ID.  It's recommended, however, that you do not share the same ID for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls on your devices.

    One laptop with two iTunes acc...

    It's possible. You just have to be very diligent about signing out of one account to use the other.

  • I have two apple accounts, with two separate iCloud accounts, both with information I need on my iPhone and mac. One email is no longer valid therefore I can't varify it via emial. How do I get info onto my phone or onto one account?

    I have two different email accounts/IDs because one of my account email's is no longer valid, therefore I am unable to verify it via the varification email. I can not use my current email/apple ID to change it to becuase it is set as my backup on the first account. So frustrating because I am now paying for two seperate iclouds and cloud music storage as well. Just bought my mac and I am having trouble getting music onto my iphone because the majority is on the old, non valid email address account but I have to use my current apple ID on my iphone.... any suggestions on how to not lose everything and have it all in one place would be great! Thanks!

    You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

  • How to share a library with two apple id's?

    We have one library on the iMac. And only 1 computer - so home sharing is not the solution.
    My husband and I each have our own Apple id and iphones. How does he get access to our library as we have only one as he is a new Apple user. Where am I meant to save the library so he can log in under his User name on the iMac and then open iTunes and see the same library that I open?
    Many thanks.

    You should continue to use your old ID for iTunes, if you don't you will have difficulties using your purchased content.
    You can use either the new or the old ID for iCloud, iCloud is just a sync service so you won't actually lose anything by using one or the other.
    If you'd prefer to use the same ID for both and your contact and calendar info is in your iCloud account using your new ID, you can always transfer that data to the other account and delete the new account altogether.

  • How do you share one iTunes with two phones but not get each other's apps when you sync?

    My husband doesn't want to have the kid's apps or my apps download on his iphone when he syns to our one iTunes library....suggestions?

    Each device will ONLY sync what you select.
    Just do not select the apps that you do not want.  Only select the apps that you do want.

  • Does it matter if you are sharing one email account with two phone numbers

    I am trying to facetime with my wife. We share the same email. but have two different phone numbers. on her end it says she is unavailable for facetime. Any help would be great. Thanks.

    The 'extension' cords are all compatible with all of the power bricks for Apple portables (PowerBooks, MacBooks, MacBook Pros, etc.). I also have several from many generations (back to early PowerBooks) and I use them all interchangeably with current adapters (in various rooms at home, at work, etc.).
    (As a side note, they are not compatible with the iPod power bricks, but that's not relevant for you.)

  • HT5622 How to create apple account with out visa

    I'm trying to create an account to start using App Store but the account doesn't sign in and keeps asking me to add visa details with giving me the non option to choose.
    Please advise me..

    There are instructions on this page for how to create a new account (it won't work with existing accounts) without giving credit card details : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    e.g. if doing it on your computer's iTunes and you are currently signed into an account then sign out of it, then find a free app in the store and click on its free 'price' :
    Then click on 'create Apple id' on the popup that you get :
    You should then get 'none' on the payment details screen - I did when I tried it earlier today in response to another thread.

  • HT1947 There are 5 of us in this house with IPhones and we all want to control the apple tv with our phones.    We all have separate iTunes accounts.   How do we do this?

    There are 5 of us in this house with IPhones and we all want to control the apple tv with our phones.    We all have separate iTunes accounts.   How do we do this?

    I have 3 iPhones in my house and 1 apple tv.
    I do NOT set a password on my apple tv, so any iPhone can send video to the tv.
    Any iPhone can use the apple remote option also.
    Just play a video and click that square with an arrow and play on apple tv. The video comes up from any iPhone in my house.
    Same goes for pics, etc

  • How are businesses handling the "APPLE LOCK" on company cell phones when an employee leaves and their phone is unusable because the euipment was set up on the employee's personal Apple Account with their ID and password?

    How are businesses handling the "APPLE LOCK" on company cell phones when an employee leaves and their phone is unusable because the euipment was set up on the employee's personal Apple Account with their ID and password?  When an employee leaves a business and the company has purchased the equipment, the company should have the rights to reissue the equipment and Apple should provide an alternative to unlock the equipment from the employee's personal APPLE account and password so the company (that purchased the equipment) can reissue the line and equipment to another employee.

    If you can prove ownership to Apple, they may be able to help you.
    The best way of handing things would be strong policies requiring that the equipment be turned in in a usable state. i.e. not activation locked. Failing this, the employee should be charged the cost of the replacement phone. Held from their final paycheck if required.

  • I have an icloud account with two other users besides myself.  We share the same game center.  We want our own. My two children want their own Clash of Clans account!  What do I do?

    I have an icloud account with two other users besides myself.  We share the same game center.  We want our own. My two children want their own Clash of Clans account!  What do I do?

    Log out of Gamecenter and try downloading CoC again. if it doesn't prompt you with a new village, try downloading with a different apple id. if that doesn't work, you would need a new device to create a new village and transferring it to your sons device using the code in the CoC settings.
