HT1386 Sync a second contact list to the ipad
My husband and I share a Mac and have different user accounts on that Mac. We have a new ipad (3) that I have been syncing with my user account but I want to have his contacts on the ipad as well. It would be nice to have them separate on the ipad. How can I sync his contacts without erasing my information?
AFAIK, you can only use one iCloud account at a time on an iOS device. Do you have a link to share that states how to use more than one account on the iOS devices?
Sorry for the bad English, when I said sign out, I meant delete the account.
Update -
A quick web search comes up with this article with plenty of caveats for using two (or more) iCloud accounts on the same iOS device. It certainly isn't ideal.

Can I sync my iPhone contact list to my iPad?
Is it possible to sync my iphone4 contacts to ipad2.
You should be syncing your iphone to your contact program on your computer.
You can sync your ipad to that contact program as well. -
Help!!! My husband by accident synced his account under my account and has merged all of our contacts. In the process of fixing the mixup has deleted contacts on both phones. How do I restore the contact list from the original contact list.
I hope that you aren't complaining about dropped calls INSIDE your condo because no amount of switching or upgrading devices will solve that.
VZW will not guarantee service inside of any structure. There are just too many factors. If the problem is inside then you might want to look at one of the following:
1.) Network Extender (may cause issues for others in a condo or apartment style setting)
2.) A Google Voice Number (Free with a Gmail email address), downloading Google Hangouts Dialer and forwarding your calls to the GVN so that you can make and receive calls over Wi-Fi. -
How can i import my contact list from the Nokia Suite to my I phone?
how can i import my contact list from the Nokia Suite to my I phone?
Oscar, keep in mind that my suggestion could not be the best one.
I have a copy of Nokia suite on my Windows XP partition on my Mac, just to test it.
The second icon on the upper row explains as a syncronisation with Outlook.
Try to do it and later you should use the iClod manager from Apple and Sync Outlook to ìiClod and to any iPhone iPod and so on. -
I've a new account on iMac. When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar, which would allow me to select the persons I want to include on the distribution of the email. When I start keying in a name in the email, it comes up with the person's address, which shows it is synced. How do I engage the contact list from the email like I do on my old account (where a contact list icon shows up, along with the "attach" and other icons) ?
With the New Message window open, go to the View menu and select "Customize Toolbar...".
In the screen that opens, drag the item labelled "Address" into the Toolbar area of the New Message window, then click the "Done" button.
That item should be then added to the Toolbar for the New Message window.
Note that the main Mail window and the New Message window (as well as the separate message window if you open a message that way) use different toolbars - the settings/inclusions for one do not carry over to another. -
when i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again. -
Just got an iphone (yay!) and the icloud sync-ed my contact list form my first generation ipad. Hoever, I do not want this info in the contact list the phone accesses (2 different lists). Is there a way to keep them seperate? With the latest operating system (installed this morning) I can't see the contacts I manually entered into the phone unless I download from the cloud (which has EVERY contact in it-not just the manually entered conrtacts). Surely there must be ways to create groups, or different phone/contact lists to access?
till now i don't think thunderbird has multiple address books. but u can try rd party app but still i don't recommend this. If i 'll get any info about this i will definately tell you. sorry but if it won't helps.

How do i sync windows 7 contact list with iphone
How do I sync Windows 7 contact list with iphone?
If both computers are running Lion the easiest way would be to sign up for a free iCloud account and let Apple do it for you via the cloud.

after updates to ios 5.1.1...i can't add or edit my contacts and also can't take a photo at my contact lists. The '+' icon is suddenly disappear from my screen...anybody can assist me on this issue?
At last, the BEST solution!
In addition to my last post, here is the solution for fixing this problem without syncing your contacts with icloud.
It takes about 2 minutes and permanently solves the problem so you can start adding and editing your contacts again on IOS 5.1.1!
Basically you just need to follow these steps from the Settings page:
Enable Airplane Mode
Go to iCloud settings
Turn on Contacts
Agree to 'Merge Contact'
Wait for pop up to confim iCloud contacts are on
Turn off Contacts
Confirm that you want to Keep your Contact on the iPhone
Wait for pop up to confim iCloud contacts are off
Disable Airplane Mode
Airplane Mode temporarily blocks all phone signal/data to stop your contacts merging with icloud.
Thanks to Washyman and Drewie77 for that info above! I got it from this post and it worked fine. -

If you are talking about the MobileMe control panel within advanced area of the sync tab it reads list of computers.... The iPhone should not be in the list. Mine is not.

copy my contacts list to his iPad. We both have Apple ID's and we share a PC. How do i copy the contacts from my iPhone, iCloud or iPad to his iPad 1?
The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
and the iTunes Match services.
(I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
and
iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

I recently downloaded the 5.1.1 and all of a sudden the contact icon has disappeared. I can still access my contact list through the phone icon, but I want the contact icon back. How can I reinstall it?
You can't delete it. Look on all your screens and inside all your folders. If you still can't find it go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. This will restore the home screen to its original configuration but may move other apps around to do so.
