How to use FaceTime with 2 devices on same apple id

My husband and I share an apple ID account, and each of us has an IPad and we want to be able to FaceTime each other, but both devices see us as the same person. Is there a way to separate our devices within the same account?

You each need your own Apple ID. It's the same as trying to call a phone with the same number. You can't.
I suppose you use the same Apple ID to share apps. You can still do that. Just create a new Apple ID for the second user and log into your device using that ID for FaceTime and Messages only. In Settings > iTunes and App Store, use the shared Apple ID.

How to use facetime with same apple id

If I've already downloaded facetime on my imac do I have to buy it again for my mac book which is older and didn't come with facetime? And also, my husband has taken our ipad to Asia and I wanted to facetime with him using my imac at home, however I only have one apple ID so how do we call each other if the apple ID's are the same??

It's only 99 cents, and I do believe you'll be charged for the second download to the Macbook. Your Mac book must have osx, 10.6.6 or later, installed. You can use the same apple ID, but you must supply a different individual e-mail for address to the ipad, and you should also supply another different individual e-mail address to the Mac book.

How to use ATV2 with iTunes, DAC and Apple remote

Hello,
I play my iTunes library through a Wadia i170 dock connected to a Cambridge Audio DacMagic running through a Marantz AV preamp. I bought an ATV2 and I would like to control the music with an iPad using the Apple Remote app. My ATV is connected to the Marantz via HDMI and i have another HDMI cable running to the TV. Is it possible to do this?
Thanks!

If you enable Home Sharing in itunes, on iPad and AppleTV then Remote app will allow you to browse itunes content from the iTunes library and play it back on AppleTV using Airplay. Alternatively the Remote app can control the AppleTV interface directly with iAppleTV requesting/pulling content from itunes as opposed to Airplay sending/pusihing content to AppleTV to play.
Not sure where the Wadia dock comes into this.
Do you dock the iPad with it?
I'd have thought you'd be wanting to hook up the AppleTV optical out to the DacMagic if it supports Toslink or use HDMI or optical direct to the AV amp.
Are you trying to run the system 'headless' with TV off when playing audio - if so, recent software has messed things up and not certain if fixed in that absence of an active HDMI connection can disable audio out over optical.

How to use iCloud with my family's devices

We're an Apple household with two Apple-using parents and three Apple-using kids. We have two iPads, two iPod Touches, two iPhones and a MacBook Pro.
Up unti now, I have used all of the devices with the same Apple ID, except for my wife's iPhone and MacBook, which use a different account because I'd purchased a MobileMe account so that her address book and calendar would sync. My iPhone, on the other hand, belongs to my company and data is sync'ed using Exchange, but the AppleID is still mine, there are no special corproate controls, and the Apple ID and apps I purchase belong to me.
Should I simply migrate my wife to my AppleID, and use iCloud to sync her phone with the MacBook Pro, and leave everything else as-is? Then we will have a single AppleID for everything, and her Calendar and Address book will sync between her two devices, and FindMyiPhone will find everything with a single login? Are there any limits with using all of these iDevices on a single account?
Thanks!

How to use more than one device under same apple ID?

How do you you use more than one device under same apple ID? say for facetime?

You don't. One Device and one Apple ID.

Is it possible to use FaceTime With my two IPad With the same email address? I Will Google to china next month And i would like to communicate With my kids.

IS it possible to use FaceTime With my two IPad That has the same address? I Will Go to China soon And i would like to discuss With my kids from there i.e. One IPad in China And one in Montréal.

No, this is not possible. It would be like dialing your own phone number. You must verify an additional new email address for your second iPad. See the following link which will tell you how to do this. You will need to add this new address to Facetime app in one of your iPads.

I receive Facetime call and when i accept the call. Nothing happen ! I often use Facetime with this friend without problems

I'm having similar issues. The iPhone4's face time works just as it always did but the iPad4 is not working. I can place a call but it won't connect, others can call and it rings but never connects. I've signed in and out of iTunes, removed and reinstalled the wifi, hard restart, and anything I can think of. It's driving me nuts!

Is it possible to use FaceTime with 3G?

I have an Ipad2 with 3G and Im unable to use FaceTime if Im not connected to WiFi. Is it possible to use FaceTime without connecting to WiFi and only using 3G internet connection? If it is possible, how?

Only way you can use Facetime with 3G is to jailbreak your device, a topic we can't discuss here.

How to use Count with Date Parameters

Hello,
I am having issues using the Count() function in conjunction with date parameters.
This is a Siebel report and in my report I have 2 date parameters(From Date, To Date). In a nutshell I am basically trying to count Opportunities that has a start date within the given date period. However I don't see a reasonable way to put my date parameters within the Count() function. The reason being is that I need to have a huge chunk of code to convert the dates into a common format that can be compared, and it won't even fit within the code block in my rtf template. I am not even sure how to put multiple conditional statements inside a Count() function since all the examples I have seen are very simple.
Anyone have a suggestion on how to use Count() with date parameters?
Thanks.

Any chance you can get the date formats in the correct format from siebel?
I don't know Siebel - so I can't help you with that. If you get the correct format it is just
<?count(row[(FromDate>=date) and (date<=ToDate))?>
Otherwise the approach would probably need to use string function to get year/monthd/day from the date
and store it into a varialbe and compare later the same way
<?variable@incontext:from; ....?>
<?variable@incontext:to; ...?>
<?count(row[($from>=date) and (date<=$to))?>
Potentially you can use the date functions such as xdofx:to_date to do the conversion
[http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12844_01/doc/bip.1013/e12187/T421739T481158.htm]
But I am not sure if they are available in your siebel implementation.
Hope that helps

Need an example how to use SCAN_Start with a callback function

I would appreciate if someone helps me with a working example of how to use SCAN_Start with a callback function. I need just a basic functionality: to specify a channel list (with gains probably), to start a data acquisition task and to receive data buffers utilizing a callback function. t this time whatever I was trying to do caused computer hangups, though it is supposed to be one of the most regular tasks to perform.
Thank you in advance,
Mike

Hello Mike,
Thank you for contacting National Instruments.
Attached is an example project which uses a callback function to begin analog acquisition (AI) by calling SCAN_Start. This project acquires from the first 2 channels on your DAQ device. Make sure to modify the device number in the code to match the number of your card.
Let me know if you have any further questions...
Sincerely,

Can I use FaceTime with an aftermarket USB webcam?

I'm currently looking at getting a Mac mini and using an aftermarket DVI monitor that doesn't have a webcam. I'd still like to be able to use FaceTime with my Mac so I'm looking at an external USB webcam. I'm just wondering if this will work or if I must have an Apple iSight camera to make FaceTime work? I really don't know much about it as all my other FaceTime devices have built in webcams. If anyone has tried it with success please let me know.

Hello andywl2000
As long as you have a web cam internal or external, you will be fine.

No. Facetime is exclusive to iOS devices and Macs. There is no android version. You would have to use a 3rd party app/service like Skype.
