HT201058 How much iCloud data do you get using Family Sharing?

If I add both of my daughters to my Family Sharing, how much iCloud storage do we get between the 3 of us?
Is it worth joining ID's, if we only have 5GB to share between us, considering we are all using over 4GB each now.

I would also like to know how I can merge a Apple ID with another ID?
I set up my daughters ID's about 3 years ago, but I had to add 10 years to their Date Of Birth, else I could not get them ID's. Now when I have added my daughter to my Family Sharing, it states she is an adult, and it will not let my change her DOB. Apple says I have to setup a child ID within Family Sharing.
So, can I change a Adult ID to a Child ID, or merge a Adult ID to a new Child ID?

  • How much extra data can you get with Share Everything?

    It says that if you need more than 10 GB you can buy 2 GB for $10. Is that a 1 time shot or could someone buy an additional 20 GB for $100? Or even an extra 100 GB for $500 if they wanted too?

    Why would they stop you while you are paying for it?  It's an overage and they more than likely let you go as high as what you are willing to pay for like with their other data plans(That are not unlimited).
    Well for one if even a small % of people used 100 GB a month I suspect that would hamper the network. That's the whole reason for them scrapping unlimited and having caps isn't it? So I assume there would be some limit. And yes I realize the number of people that would actually do that is extremely small. But if you use a lot of data on a pay for what you use basis as opposed to $30 for unlimited, that extra money can be utilized for the network so it can handle the extra data.
    Of course these new plans say up to 10 devices. Unless otherwise stated I assume that could be 10 smartphones. So 10 people could just all be a part of one plan and get data cheaper than if they were all on single plans.
    For example 10 individuals who each wanted 4 GB of data would pay $110 a month each on single plans.( $40 for the phone $70 for 4 GB of data ) Combined they could get a plan with 10 phones; $400 for the phones, the initial 10 GB for $100 and another 30 GB for $150( 15 2GB add-ons at $10 each ) for total of $650 so a cost of $65 each. I'm not sure if that's what Verizon had in mind. How many people are going to agree to be financially responsible for the cell phone bills for themselves and 9 of their friends? I know I am not going to take that on my shoulders and I doubt there are many that would. The ones that would, will quickly change their minds when some of their friends start skipping payments for their usage and the person responsible is left holding the bag.
    A) I doubt any extar money I pay will IMMEDIATELY be put to use expanding the network. My extra usage is happening NOW while improvements to infrastructure take YEARS.
    B) 10 friends? maybe not. 10 family members? maybe. For example under the old plans you couldn't have more than 5 to an account. My friend recently got married to a woman that has 4 kids. All teenage years and older. He has 3 himself. That's 9 people. No way they could all have been on the same plan. Now they can. Whether that's wise or not that's their decision but at least it's an option. And if everyone wanted 2 GB or more data each that would require the purchase of several 2 GB add-ons.

  • I need to find out how much wifi data my apps are using. I have a very limited amount of wifi data, and I am exceeding my monthly allowance. Apparently, even apps I think are not open are sending/receiving data through the wifi and using up my allowance.

    I need to find out how much wifi data my apps are using. I am on a very limited amount of WiFi data each month, which I am regularly exceeding. I have been told to work out which of my apps is using the data. Also, I think I have closed an app by double clicking the home button, then swiping the app up - is this the way to close it, or will it still be sending/receiving data?

    Go into your Settings : General : and turn off background refresh for your apps.  In Settings : Mail  turn Fetch new data to OFF and Load Remote Images to OFF.  This will mean that Mail will only check for messages when you actually use it, and all your advertising junk mail won't have all the images in it.
    Turn off push notifications every chance you get.
    Make sure you are actually quitting apps:  to quit apps press the Home button twice and you should see a bunch of smaller screen images for every open app.  To quit the app swipe from the screen image (not the icon) upward off the top of the iPad.  You can swipe left and right to see more open apps, but there must be no left-right movement on the screen when you swipe upward to close the app.
    Turn off your internet connection when you do not need it.  The easiest way to do this is to swipe up from the bottom of you screen to get the control centre, and then touch the airplane to turn on airplane mode.  You can repeat this sequence to turn it back on again when you need it.  Most especially turn airplane mode on whenever you are sleeping your iPad for long periods.  This will save battery life too.  OR actually turn your iPad off - which means holding the power key down for several seconds until the red swipe bar appears, and then swipe to turn it off.  If you go this route, note that it will take longer to turn on then it takes to wake from sleep.

  • How much Internet data does Creative Cloud send/receive when it connects?

    For a number of reasons, the only Internet access that I have on my main computer (a desktop) is via my phone's mobile hotspot feature. Unfortunately, this means that I have a limited amount of data available. So, before I set up Creative Cloud on my computer, I'd like to verify that CC won't be using up all my data.
    The programs that I'll be using are Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. My computer is a PC, if that makes any difference. Can anyone tell me: How much Internet data will these programs use for their routine connections?
    Also, if I want to keep up-to-date on the updates, approximately how much additional data would that use?
    Thanks much.
    P.S. I may not be able to access the Internet at all on my computer for several months. (I'd be transferring documents to and from the computer using a flash drive.) If this happens, will I be able to continue using my CC programs?

    Hi CarlaDee,
    I think downloading apps and updates will be the most data intensive. With the yearly plan the service would need to do a license check every 99 days. I'd recommend using the trial to get a sense of the bandwidth usage.

  • How do i add an apple id for family sharing for my husband

    I am trying to set up family sharing and have added my daughters easily but when i try and invite my husband it says we cant as he email address is already associated with my apple id. How can i set him up to use family sharing?

    Go to Settings/Messages. Tap on Send & Receive, then on Apple ID. Sign out, then sign in with his Apple ID and password.
    After doing this you will not be able to use iMessage for your own messages.

  • How to decrypt data when you can't get the private key in Windows?

    I'm very confuse. My english is poor, but I try to say my question clearly.
    When browser connects to a https website which needs client certificate to authenticate the identity, the browser will send client certificate to web server.
    Then the web server will use the certificate to encrypt some data and send it to browser.
    Then broswer should have private key to decrypt that.
    But as I know, if I install a pfx format personal certificate, I can set can't export private key, which means you can't get the private key to use it. So how can
    the browser decrypt the data without private key?
    By the way, what is CSP, use CSP's interface can we use CryptoAPI
    to decrypt data without private key?

    Answer for question is  "you cant"..

  • How much would it be to get my pic messaging back?

    Okay, so here's "the scoop." I was added under my dad and stepmom's plan on Oct. 4th 2009. We have the 700 min. talk and text* plan and was wondering about our pix messaging plan. As I understand it, they USED to be included in that plan for one FLAT price. Well in March, my dad decided to put my phone under suspension because I didn't really use it. In May I got it back and had pix messaging for a while, but then when I got a pix message it showed a banner saying "national access not available." So I called my dad and he said that he had taken pix messaging off our plan, he told me it was because it was expensive. I would really like to have it back now (because I am a teenager) and would be willing to pay for it but I have questions and they need answers before I go ahead and propose this idea to my dad.
    1. Did verizon change pix messaging rates and plans?
    2.  About how much would it be to get it back, and would it apply to all three (my dad, my stepmom, and I) of us?
    3. Can it be added back to our plan? (I know with some things once you remove it, you can't get it back, you either have to upgrade, and then go back to where you were, or cancel your plan altogether.)
    Thank you in advance

    Talk and Text 700 minutes is $99.99 a month for 2 lines, and $9.99 for each additional line of service.  That includes unlimited texting, pictures too, for all lines.  Blocking National access, as Mary said, and it does sound as if that's the case, does not SAVE any money, if you still have the Talk & Text plan, it just prevents picture and sound messages from being sent and received.
    On the other hand, if there is a block on picture messaging, and they stepped down to the Talk only plan, they are saving $30 a month bu paying for texts - unless they added a texting plan for only your line.
    You need to find out what plan is on the account, and what, if any, blocks are in place.  A national access block will prevent you from accessing the internet and stop data charge surprises, but it also block picture messaging.  You can add a texting package to only your line if they are on the TALK only plan:
    $5/mo for 250 texts (sent and received)
    $10/mo for 500 texts PLUS unlimited texts M2M
    $20/mo for 5000 texts PLUS unlimited M2M
    This is per line, and each line on a family plan can have its own bundle.
    If they are still on the Talk & Text, you already have unlimited text, picture, and video messaging included.

  • HT1338 how much does it cost to get the latest version of safari

    how much does it cost to get latest version of safari

    What MichelPM suggested is the SAFEST solution. Firefox is a better browser than Safari, and you will not be faced with any potentially crippling consequences of a full OS update.
    You will presumably have to update your system at some point, and you should prepare for that by maintaining a full, up-to-date backup of your current main system on an external hard drive. You can use SuperDuper ($25) or Carbon Copy Cloner (the legacy version, 3.5.7) to clone your current system to an external drive. This drive will be bootable and will provide you will a safety net if you decide to install Yosemite at some point.

  • How do I know how much iCloud storage I need?

    How do I know how much iCloud storage I need?  I bought 10 GB and it said not enough, I bought 25 GB and it still says not enough.  I'm only backing up Contacts, Calendars, Photo Stream & Find my iPhone.

    Are you sure it's storage on icloud that you're getting messages about, and not your device.  If your device's memory is getting full, try deleting video, photos (after syncing them to a computer - but you should always be doing that), and any other large files and try doing whatever you were doing that led to those errors/warnings.
    It would also help if you told us exactly what operation(s) led to the warnings.

    You can not access the backup directly.
    Did you restore your replacement from this backup?
    If so then you already have everything in the backup on your device.
    If not, you can wipe the device and restore from this backup:
    Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings
    What is it you are worried about losing that isn't already on your current device?

    I suggest that you go to the iFixit.com and Powerbookmedic.com and look for parts and prices.  That naturally assumes that you know what parts are defective and need to be replaced.

  • With apple insurance, how much does it cost to get the home button fixed?

    My home button is not working reliably; I would like to know how much it would cost to get it fixed if I have the apple insurance.

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
