I have two children each with an ipod which has FaceTime - I have the iphone 4s with FaceTime. All of these devices are connected to itunes through the one account. How do I set up the FaceTime on the two ipods so as it doesn't ring both of them?
I started to do that then it said that this will become their apple I.D or similar and then I thought that will disconnect them from the same iTunes? I want them still on my iTunes as they are only young (8 and 10)? Or have I got this all wrong and even if I do set them up with a different e-mail will they still be on my itunes? For example if they want to purchase an App will it still go through my account even if they use their ipod?

I have two iPads under the one user ID. Mine and my 4 year olds. When making purchases for the App Store, the purchase goes to both IPads. How do I stop content going to both?
Any help would be great.Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You have to disable Automatic Downloads on the iPad where you don't want to get the purchases. Open Settings > iTunes & App Stores, and disable Automatic Downloads for Apps, Music and/or Books. Read > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4539 -
In order to upgrade my computer from Windows xp to Windows 7, I lost access to firefox without thinking to generate a recovery key. Is there any way to get my data back?
If the only thing you have paired to the account is an iPhone the answer is that unfortunately no. The iPhone client (Firefox Home) is just a "consumer" of the Sync data and can't do much.
My best advice is to keep the iPhone synced to have access to bookmarks and manually transfer them to your new profile.
Sorry to be the carrier of the bad news. -
I have an ipod touch that I would like to give to my grandson. The id is now also associated with my iphone 4s. I would like to separate the two and give him his own account. How do I do that?
Better yet, connect the iPod to your computer and restore it to factory settings, and then set it up as a new iPod. Give it to your grandson and then download and install iTunes on a computer that he has access to. When you install iTunes you can set him up with his own Apple ID, and you can set it up without using a credit card...

I have two Canon printers an MP970 and an MX710, when I installed the MX710 it disabled my ability to access the MP970 SCANNER from the Canon Solution Menu.
I have tried to re-install the drivers and the MP970 Solutions but even that only allows the scanner in the MX710?
IS there any way to use the scanners for both? AND what do I need to do.Hi bburtjr,
The MP970 and MX710 use two seperate versions of the Solution Menu, so I think what is happening is that it copied over your desktop shortcut with the latest version which nly shows the 710. If both versions of the Solution Menu are still on the computer, they should be accessible under your Start Menu if you are using Windows or your Applications Menu if you are on a Mac. Under the Start Menu you would go to All Programs and Canon Utilities and it should list two seperate versions of Solution Menu. The newwer version being for the 710 and the older being for the 970. On Mac, if you click Go from Finder, and click Applications, you should have the same Canon Utilities folder and the same applies as it does in Windows. You should have two versions of Solution Menu, one for each printer.

how do I do to use the same appleid on all my devices, I want to use the last one I have on my Ipad mini, do I deleta the one I have on my Iphone and reeinstall it with the Id I use on my Ipad..?
Hi john,
Yes, you would sign out of iTunes & App Store: Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on the Apple ID, click on Sign Out. Then sign back on with the new Apple ID. Also, if you have an iCloud account with the other Apple ID, you would delete that iCloud account, and then sign on with your new ID: Settings>iCloud>Delete Account.
Cheers,

If I have multiple apple devices and use the same iCloud login on them, shouldn't apple give us more iCloud storage for each device
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
No. Apple only offers 5 GB of free iCloud storage for all your devices, no matter how many you have got. If you need more iCloud storage, purchase storage. -
Hello - my wife and I use the same appleID (legacy of our first ipod) and now that we've gone to the cloud with multiple devices, is there a smart, easy way to either segregate the data in the iCloud to each of our respective devices or ?? Thx in advance ...
Hello eagjdw
You can keep the one Apple ID for purchases and then create another one for a personal account for contacts and calendars. The article below will assist further

We had our Mac Book Pro stolen and have not been able to recover the serial number from our Best Buy receipt. We did register it with Apple during the set-up and downloaded music on it thru ITunes. Any chance we can recover the serial number from somewhere? Any details would be helpful. Thank you!
You can try going here, using the same AppleID you used on the machine:

I currently have an email address with my cable company. In order to use the "@icloud" email addresses, do I also need my cable company email address?
That's right, all you need is the actual internet connection. If you want to use the cable company email in addition it has no effect either way on iCloud, it's up to you.
When you sign in in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud (Lion 10.7.5. minimum required, or iOS5/6) and check 'Mail' in the list, you will be asked to create an @icloud.com address, and the account will automatically be added to the Mail application and set up. You can also access your mail at http://icloud.com -

How do I enable TDM?
Make sure both computers are turned on and awake.
Connect a male-to-male Mini DisplayPort or ThunderBolt cable to each computer.
Press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac being used as a display to enable TDM.
Note: In Keyboard System Preferences, if the checkbox is enabled for "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard functions keys," the key combination changes to Command-Fn-F2.
How do I exit TDM?
To leave TDM, press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac that is in TDM. You can also exit TDM if you shutdown or sleep either computer or detach the cable.
Can I use a third-party keyboard or older Apple keyboard to enable TDM?
Some older Apple keyboards and keyboards not made by Apple may not allow Command-F2 to toggle display modes. You should use an aluminum wired or wireless Apple keyboard to toggle TDM on and -
MacBook Air does not have an optical drive. There is a program I wish to install on my Air which is an astronomy application called Megastar V. Installation requires the use of a CD.

Is there a way to use the usb with ATV1 and external hard drive?
I have the same question and refuse to beleive that Apple would put the USB port there for a HD and not be able to use it for that purpose.
