How to use an apple id on an iPad but not have it connect with my phone and mac

I've recently sold my ipad to my younger sisters who are using my apple id. once they are in wifi they are able to use facetime and imessage but it connects with my email and phone number. They are also able to view my pictures in "my photo stream". Is there a way to let them us my apple id but completely disable the id from imessage, facetime, and making sure my photo stream does not show up?

When you created your iCloud account, the @me.com email address you created also automatically became an AppleID, but you used an exisiting AppleID in the first place to create the iCloud account before deciding on that @me.com address. So your iCloud account is actually the AppleID you used to initially create the account, not the @me.com address assigned once the iCloud account was active (look in your account settings on your iPhone or iPad and you can see what the iCloud account primary AppleID is).
Unless you specifically started using your new @me.com address for things, it is an unused AppleID, but it is NOT your iCloud account primary ID (that is whatever AppleID you used to create the iCloud account initially).
An AppleID is nothing more than an email address, but it is linked to an AppleID account held with Apple and thus can be used to log in to services including the various Apple stores.

How to use time capsule for wireless back-up but not internet?

Hello,
I have a tower and recently a laptop at work. The tower is connected to our local network with an ethernet cable and the laptop with wireless. So, the internet connection is fine for both.
I was hoping to use my time capsule to do time machine backups on my laptop. Do you have any advice on how to configure this? I do not want to use the time capsule to extend my Internet, as I believe my work I.T. would prefer to handle all access to their network.
Perhaps there is some documentation about doing this that you could point me to? I have not been able to find it.
Thank you for your help.

Your original question was How to use Time Capsule for wireless back-up but not Internet?
There is no reason for you to connect the tower....or anything else...using Ethernet if your goal remains that same as you stated.
If you are asking if you can backup the Tower using Ethernet, and not wireless, then you can connect the tower to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule....not the WAN port.
Yes, it appears to work without plugging into my tower.
Correct, it will work.
I just have to select the network that it created. Of course, I have no access to the Internet while this is happening and it can not auto backup, unless I am on that wireless signal.
As I stated, that is the downside to trying to back up without an Internet connection. You have to establish another network...and backup over that network.
If you are asking if you can stay connected to the work network while also backing up to your non-Internet "private" network, that is not possible.

I want to play music from my playlist when I am using slideshow of my pictures in Ipad, but I can only choose ONE SINGLE song, and it continuously repeates itself. Is there a way to play the complete playlist while showing my pictures?

You can start the playlist playing in the iPod app and then switch into the Photos app and start your (non-music) slideshow - as you've found out you can currently only select a single track in the Photos app. Whether that will change in iOS 5 I don't know, but you could try leaving feedback for Apple : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Then there should be no issue for you.

I do not know the password to get onto the 3G phone to make changes or update apps etc.
Then there is more than one Apple ID involved.... Or a Restrictions Passcode has been set.

Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
Thanks

I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help suiting the old apple I'd because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions

I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.

You cannot do that. The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address. The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well). You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)?

Password on apple id works on iPad but not on Mac Pro

Pass word on apple id works with iPad but not on Mac Book Pro, what is the solution, I have tried to reset password but that does not seem to solve the problem.

It kind of depends on where you're entering the password on the MacBook Pro. iTunes Store? App Store?
Try the password on this website https://id.apple.com/ (click on [manage my apple id]
If it works on that website there's nothing wrong with your apple id or password. In that case we really will need to know exactly what you're trying to do when you're getting the password error.

Mac App store and Final Cut Pro X can a single Apple account purchase 3 separate copies of Final Cut X? Also how do we allow our editors to update FCPX, but not have access to the credit card?

I work for a medium sized compand 400+ people. We have a 3 person video crew. How does our company start an Apple account that will allow us to purchase three separate copies of Final Cut Pro X, but not allow us access Credit Card info, but still allows us to update purchased software? Surely Apple cators to small businesses needing multiple lisences. I appreciate any feedback, thanks!

I would assume that since your company has a video department, it probably also has an IT department. Have them set up the needed account(s) and download from the App Store for you.
You should also contact Apple about a mulit-seat licensing arrangement, but those usually involve 25 seats or more.
Apple doesn't really cater to small businesses ... or any business group in particular. They primarily cater to the consumer market.

How to use HOST call DOS continuous running problem but NOT hold Forms scre

In my Forms, I have a Button a start a MP3 recorder program to record voice, I use HOST command to init the program successfully. However, since the MP3 recorder program in continuous running, the HOST command hold my Forms screen until the MP3 program stop.
I have try to use Open_form to open another form to start this MP3 program. It still hold the whole Forms system.
Is there any solution to start a continuous running DOS program but NOT hold the Forms screen?
Thank You !

You didn't provide your host-command, so i simply guess its something like
HOST('"c:\Program Files\mp3.exe" someoptions');instead of calling the program directly, you could use a commadn batch along with the start-command, for this should launch the program asynchronously:
HOST('cmd /c start "c:\Program Files\mp3.exe" someoptions');hope this helps.

How do I use the same apple id for 2 iPads, but not share email, phone #, etc.?

I have had 2 iPads for a couple years, both using the same apple id. One is used primarily by my husband. Today I got notifications that my husband's ipad is now using all the same email addresses and phone number associated with mine. How do I change this?

You can set the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Stores, but have different Apple ID's for Messages, iCloud and Facetime.
Settings->iCloud->Apple ID->Sign Out
Settings->Facetime->Apple ID->Sign Out
Settings->Messages->Send & Receive->Apple ID->Sign Out
Just go into Settings, and make sure the Apple ID set for those services is different for both iPads.

Itunes says I have backed up my phone to icloud at a previous date. When I log into icloud with the same apple ID and password I use for Itunes it says no data. Now I do not have access to my older phone and I cannot update my newer phone?
