You need to setup iMessage on one of the two phones using a different AppleID.

I have two Creative Cloud accounts, occurred by accident, I wish to merge them and have all my details and licenses under one account, how do I do that?

This is due to the different changes Adobe has gone through and unfortunately I used different emails at certain times.

Under one Adobe ID you can have one CC only,if by accident you have purchased two CC under one account, it needs to be cancelled & refunded, please contact Adobe Support at

Two Devices, One Account

We have two devices, one account. We are able to access the account from either device. We will be spending the summer seperated by 2500 miles. If we want to Skype each other, do we need to create another account?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi, Syringagal, and welcome to the Community,
Yes, absolutely, one of you will need to create a new Skype account to use. The reason why is simple: a Skype account cannot call itself! After the account is created, one of you needs to send the other a contact invitation, which the recipient will accept.
Regards,
Elaine

HT204053 I have 3 I phones on my Icloud account, How do I seperate the contacts so they do not merge together?

I have (3) Iphones on my I cloud account, How can I seperate the contacts so they are not all download to every phone

The whole idea of having one iCloud account is that all devices connected to that account can be synced together. If you don't want them syncing contacts, go to Settings>iCloud and turn off Contacts. Then each such device will have its own local contacts list. You may be given the option to move current contacts (from iCloud) to the local database. Choose what you want.

On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running? Have you updated it to 13.1 yet using an opened project's Help Menu/Updates. If not, please do so.
In what format is the footage now - DVD disc, each containing DVD-VIDEO 4:3 on DVD disc or other?
Please explore the Premiere Elements video trimming opportunities detailed in the following:

8 devices, one account, iTunes being difficult - help?

OK, here goes:
We have two MacBook Pros, two iPhone3G, one iPhone 3GS, one iPhone 4S, an iPod Nano (1st gen) and an AppleTV (1st Gen).
Home network is on a Time Capsule (3rd Gen), which has USB connections for drives/printers/etc. I have two USB drives available to use.
The laptops are our main computers, used for everything including entertainment.
The 3G phones are used as iPod Touches by the kids (little kids, no phone service for them yet).
The 3GS is my active phone and the 4S is my wife's.
iTunes is kept updated to current versions: with 10,000 or so songs, 120 movies, many TV shows, many podcasts... etc etc.
We originally had two iTunes accounts, one mine, one my wife's. A long time back before even adding the 4G and 3GS into this mix, we abandoned using my wife's account because iTunes will not let HER listen to what I buy, and vice versa, becuase of the idiotic rules of purchase/licencing. So we have been just using my account for a long time. We have also been forced to sync the AppleTV to my laptop.
All this adds up to my laptop having to 'host' all the data for all the devices, which must all sync with it. This is a huge pain in my a*s, takes up a lot of my disk storage, and it seems dumb as dirt that we must use such an awkward method to use all of our devices.
Please note: I AM NOT GOING TO PAY TO USE 'THE CLOUD'. I have plenty of storage space of my own, thanks, and I don't need to pay subscription fees just to do what I can already do remotely - get to my data at home from elsewhere....
So here's what I hope to find out here in the support community:
Based on the equipment listed, and assuming I can manage configuring stuff (or will ask how),
1) Can I put the iTunes 'library' and data (the actual files) on a USB drive attached to the Time Capsule? {If Y goto A, if N goto 2.}
A) If yes to (1), can I then use iTunes from BOTH laptops and access this SINGLE library (assuming they both use the same iTunes account info)?
B) If yes to (1), can each laptop sync whatever device it wants to?
C) Can the AppleTV be told to sync itself to the library without iTunes running on a laptop? (Don't care if I need to hack it to do this, warranty is over)
2) If I cannot put the library and the files on a remote drive, HOW THE **** can I achieve this sort of functionality:
Access one library and one set of files from both laptops, sync any device from either laptop.
(Access WITHOUT having to have BOTH laptops on the same network, 'awake', and running iTunes)
BTW - "Home Sharing" does not seem to let me do anything more than "see" my library from my wife's laptop - useless for our needs unlessI'm missing something there. Seems to be set up for letting to teens access each others music.

Yes.

Yes, but... the two iTunes will not necessarily automatically stay in sync. If music is added to the iTunes library of one computer that same music will need to be manually added to the iTunes library of the other computer. However you may be able find some scripts at Doug's AppleScripts to help keep things up to date.
Nixt wrote:

No. iOS devices and iPods can only be synced with one computer at a time. However one computer can sync to an unlimited number of iOS devices or iPods.

No. iTunes must be running for the ATV to sync.
You might want to think about getting a refurbished Mac Mini and making it your central media server. That would dramatically simplify your setup.

Multiple users and devices, one account

I have an iPad 1 and iPod Classic. My wife has an iPhone 4s and an iPod Touch. Sonny boy also has an iPod Touch. They are all linked to my apple id and account. How do I separate the account so that we can each manage our own devices from our single PC?
Though my wife has her own apple ID and account, everything is apparently linked to my account.
How can I set things up so we each manage our own devices, libraries, downloads, and accounts?

Yes, it does. Method one. Multiple Windows User account - to create different Windows User account for your wife and you son. You already have your windows user account, you just need to add two more. - Go to Windows Control Panel, Users and add user.(remember to choose Administrator instead of standard user).
Each of you will log in to your own windows user profile to manage your own iTunes library, account and sync devices.
e.g. Windows startup screen for multiple User profile.

Multiple devices, one email - how can I see from iPad if I've replied from iPhone.

Hi, I use both my iPhone and iPad to access my email. When I reply to a message on a device, I get an icon on the email on that device showing that I've replied. However, when I access the same email account from the other device, I don't see a replied icon. Any way I can get the replies synching so that I van see if I've replied across multiple devices?
(Particularly useful since my wife and I share one of the emails we access so useful to see if the other one of us has replied)
Thanks
Ed

When trying to update in the mac store I get notice that I have updates available for other accounts. I only have one account how do I fix it?

I saw Brett Terpstra's answer in his quickTip fixing the other account issue in the mac app store issue and followed those directions and still have this issue. I have only one apple ID and still can't update the basics such as Iphoto...

Hmmm, no other Apple devices?

FaceTime issues with multiple devices & one account

I have an iPhone 5s, an iPad Mini and 2 iPod Touch devices, all on the same account and Apple ID. Is there any way to iMessage or FaceTime from one device to ONE other device(not all of them)? Thanks!

You can create another Appleid and use it only for FaceTime and/or messages on 1ipad.
In this manner you can maintain a parent account for all and have child accounts for messaging only.
You would simply log out of messages and log in with new id

Multiple devices, one account

Is it legal to purchase an app and put it on more than one device with the same account? If so, is there a way to transfer an app from an iphone to an ipod touch when there is no wifi to connect the ipod touch to the internet/app store?
Thanks!

I understand about syncing - that is not my question. I am asking if there is any OTHER way to transfer apps if you are in a situation where you do not have access to itunes or wifi (to re-download from the app store). There are apps to transfer pictures (i.e. Bump), so I was wondering if there is a way to transfer apps.

2 skype #s one account how to use them

help anyone ? please.
Just purcahsed a new skype number under same already existing account, now have 2 numbers and want to use both, how can I do this ? perhaps switching fron one to another ? opening a new account ? but can I link the number ? Thank you

You give out your Skype number (either one or both) to whoever you want to have them and when somebody calls either number your Skype will ring. Basically both numbers point to your Skype account.

I think I have 2 itune accounts open and would like to consolidate them into one -don't know my user name of the one account how can I consolidate these

Anyone have any ideas?

Sorry, the forum is not letting me post links. You will need to add the https stuff to the start of this --> iforgot.apple.com/
To identify an account used to purchase an item:
In iTunes, select one of the items purchased from the iTunes store. Click on "Purchased" under iTunes store on the left side of iTunes.
Right click --> get info.
On the Info tab will be the Apple/iTunesID used to purchase the item.
You cannot combine accounts. Anything bought with one will permanently be associated to that account. Decide which one will be your main one and just use it. Keep stuff from the other backed up so you don't have to log into that account again unless essential.
