HT3819 Home Share between different apple accounts?

We have one computer, iPads, and iPhones some with separate accounts. How might you go about home sharing between, say an iPad and computer? And it isn't clear if you can home share between different accounts.

Continuity only works with devices signed into the same iCloud account.  It won't work across different accounts.  There's more information on this here: Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity.

  • Continuity between different apple accounts

    Dear All,
    I have an account A (iPhone), different account B(iPad/Mac). Account A has enabled the "Family Sharing" with Account B.
    Both the devices are in the same WiFi.
    Is there a way to enable continuity between two different Apple accounts (A & B)? Your ideas/thoughts will be appreciated.
    Continuity in this discussion means - Picking up the calls from other devices, Receiving the messages from other devices
    Thanks

  • Can u/how do u  share playlists between different apple accounts on the same computer?

    My other half has own iphone    how do I share i tunes with 2 different phones and 2 itunes ids

    First thing you need to do is disable auto syncing in iTunes. This is from Edit>Preferences>Devices>Prevent iPods, etc.
    Unfortunately, the only thing you can do is set up separate log in accounts for the laptop. This will allow you to have iTunes in each log in and they can have different content. iTunes cannot have separate content with the same log in and different Apple ID, but you can manage two phones with the same iTunes account. See if any of the information in this support document will help you http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1495 but the best solution is separate computer log in.

    How do I use Home Sharing with two different apple accounts?

    Morning Saintine,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Home Sharing enables you to stream or transfer music, movies, TV shows, apps, and more among up to five authorized computers in your household. To do so, you will need to Turn on Home Sharing on each computer using the same Apple ID.

  • How do I share photos and music between different user accounts on the same macbook

    How do I share photos and music between different user accounts on the same Macbook? i.e. I want all to be able to access family photos when logged into their respective accounts. Same goes for the iTunes library. Hope this is possible...
    Thanks!

    To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
    To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
    If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support articles linked below.

    There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

  • How do I share music in iTunes between different iTunes account on the MacBook Pro?

    How do I share music in iTunes between different iTunes account on the MacBook Pro?

    If it's in a single iTunes library, it's already being shared. If it's in separate user accounts on the computer, move one library to the /Users/Shared/ folder, launch iTunes with the Option key held down, point it there, and import the music from the other library to it.

  • Home Sharing between 3 itunes accounts on one Mac?

    We just brought home a MAC computer and our family has 3 itunes accounts. We would like to be able to access all 3 accounts on the home sharing feature for our apple tv's and our iphones. Is this possible?  If so, how would I set it up?
    Thank you!!!!

    To keep 3 iTunes accounts you will need to use 3 user accounts on the Mac. Yes you can use home sharing with all of them but you must use the same ID for homesharing (not iTunes) on all of them. You can only home share with the active account at any one time.

  • Is it possible to combine two or more different apple accounts to one account?

    No, you can't combine accounts nor transfer content between accounts - content will remain tied to the account that downloaded it.

  • Managing multiple iOS devices on different Apple accounts from the same iMac

    May be a very simple question to answer, but can I manage multiple iOS devices on different Apple accounts from the same iMac?
    I ask as whilst I'm totally Mac'd, my partner who has her own Apple account has a Winows laptop and experiences problems updating iOS software on her iPhone 4S and iPad 3 Gen via the laptop. I'm thinking the problems may be overcome if we manage her iOS devices through my iMac.

    Thanks dwb .... I thought there'd be a catch .... not to keen on all that media and apps on my iMac!
    The specific problem is that whenever she updates to the latsest version of iOS using the latest iTunes for Windows on her PC laptop she seems to lose something in the process. One time she lost all her texts and the other day when updating to 5.1.1 she lost all her reminders. Not the end of the world but frustrating and shouldn't really happen and doesn't happen to me using the iMac and OSX.

  • How can I block someone in my family from seeing my email since it's in the Icloud but we share the same Apple account?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
