Sharing an Apple ID is never recommended for these reasons.
They can create their own: http://appleid.apple.com and you can add them at the addresses they use for their ID.
Sharing an Apple ID is not recommended because all of your data gets merged and when it gets deleted from one device, it deletes from them all, such as Contacts.

I have a brand new mac computer. I went to download mozilla/firefox and ended up with it 3 times. It will not let me delete the 2 extra copies. How do I get rid of them?
What kind of error do you get if you try to drag a copy to the trash?

There are several login keychain items I'd like to get rid of. I've deleted them but they come back after several hours. How can I get rid of them for good.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access. -

How I download a MP4 series of videolectures (that the seller has stored in Amazon S3 and has sent to my iPad email address--which is different from the one I use from the MacBookPro) from my iPad to my MacBookPro (so that I can the save them in iTunes and then synchronize some of the videolectures to the iPad?)
To set it up as POP you need to delete the account, reboot the phone by holding the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds), then add it back following these instructions: Forcing creation of a POP or IMAP email account
I understand that you have used the same account for many years, but the technology is also changing constantly. Years ago the standard was POP (Post Office Protocol), which was designed at a time when it was inconceivable that anyone would access their email from more than one device. When people started using multiple devices, for the most part they wanted to see changes on one device mirrored on another. A new standard, IMAP (Internet Mail Access Protocol) was developed. With iMAP the master copy of all messages resides on a server, and multiple devices are kept in sync with the server. So if you delete a message from one device it is removed from the server, and then removed from all other devices when they next sync. This is the same way Microsoft Exchange works. Other benefits of IMAP include the ability to have multiple mail folders that are kept in sync across devices. In your case you could use this to create a separate folder for each family member, so they could move messages to their own folder and not clutter up the shared Inbox. Most computer mail readers can even automatically sort incoming mail into folders based on the contents of the message.
IMAP is considered a "higher level" standard than POP. When you create a mail account iOS devices query the server and ask what it supports; if it says it supports IMAP then the account is automatically configured for IMAP. So if you really want POP you must fool it, as described in the link above. In my experience Android devices default to the highest level protocol also, and I suspect newer Blackberries do (although it has been 15 years since I used a BB). -
my ipad was restored on my mom's macbook. then i hooked it up to my computer renamed it etc. but i can't sign in to the itunes store it keeps bringing up her email address not mine. how do i switch it to mine.
You can log out of the account on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then tap 'sign out' on the popup - you can then sign in with your account/
If you synced any of your mum's apps to the iPad from your her computer then they will be tied to her account, so only her account will be able to download updates to her apps -

I have tried a zillion times to update itunes to 10.5.2 but it won't work. Under the "About iTunes" section it says that I'm still using itunes 10.4. What I'm really trying to do is update my iphone 4 software but itunes says I can't do that without first updating the itunes software, which it won't let me do. Anyone know how to fix this? Much appreicated.
Look at the system preferences for iTunes 10.5.3. Are you running 10.5.x (Leopard) or later? If you are then please repost in the iTunes for Mac forum.

The download appears to work ,it extracts the files then a box comes up saying I can't run it as this user( with the name of my login),. gives me the option to check my login name or check administer with a password. I have tried both, I am the only administer on the computer. Using windows vista. I have searched and some of the things like turorials etc are on my computer but I can't get the actual browser to open and there is no shortcut for firefox. Currently I am using IE since chrome kept freezing up, so does IE.
Can you give me a screenshot of the User Accounts window in Control Panel?
Please create a screenshot by following the guide mentioned at [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]].
Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the '''Browse...''' button below the ''Post your reply'' box. You really help us to visualize the problem. -
How can I send from a disposable email address?
I use Abine to protect my identity, and I often create disposable email addresses for websites to contact me. Occasionally I want to send an email to a company or individual but I don't want them to have my real email address (think Craigslist). But when I write an email, I'm only able to send From the "registered" email accounts in TB. Is there a way to change the "From:" to a disposable address? I have tried numerous times to create an account using a disposable address but I'm never able to succeed. Interestingly, I used to be able to do this many many TB versions ago, I don't know which one, but now I can't.
Can anyone tell me how to accomplish this? This is an important privacy concern and I'm surprised Mozilla hasn't considered this.
Thanks in advance for any help.I should have mentioned that I'm using TB 31.0 on a MAC running 10.9.4.

Can't send results to BLANK email address in SWF
We have many different customers that want the quiz results
sent to them. If I leave the email address blank on the Quiz
Preferences window, Outlook automatically opens and email with a
blank TO: field and the results in the body, and the user types the
email address of the recipient before sending results. This works
great when published as an .EXE.
However, when I publish as an .SWF and place in a browser, I
press the Send E-mail button and get the following message:
This form is being submitted using e-mail.
Submitting this form will reveal your e-mail address to the
recipient, and will send the form data without encrypting it for
privacy.
You may continue or cancel this submission.
---OK--- --Cancel--
I select OK and nothing happens.
I just wanted the system to open Outlook like it did when ran
as an EXE.
Any ideas?Assuming your problem lies in HTM/SWF published files, you
can hack the sendMail() function on/around line 28 of the
email_body.htm or email_attachment.htm template files (depending on
which reporting method you select in the Quiz Properties) to prompt
the user for the correct username.
However, the built-in Prompt() method may not work in IE7 and
later, per the following note on the
MSDN
website:
In Windows Internet Explorer 7 and later the Prompt() method is
blocked by the information bar in the Internet zone. This helps
prevent malicious sites from initiating spoofing attacks.
If that turns out to be a show-stopper, you'd have to build
your own solution for gathering the e-mail address using a
combination of DHTML and Javascript.
Assuming you're willing to give it a try, the template files
can be found in:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 3\Templates\Publish
Example code using the Prompt() method is shown below: -
