How many devices (e.g. computer and laptop and ipad and iphone) can be linked to one iCloud account?
Thanks.

At least 255 separate devices. But if you have a lot of users each with devices of their own, then they should each have separate user accounts, separate Apple IDs, and separate iTunes accounts; this will generally require at least one Apple ID/iCloud account per user.

  • How many iPhones (4, 4S, and 5) can be associated with one iCloud account?

    I would like to use the iCloud account to associate with Find My iPhone in a corporate environment for security and loss prevention. I know that iTunes accounts are limited at ten devices per account. However, I cannot find a definative number of devices that can be associated with a single iCloud account. Any information on this would be very helpful. Thank you.

    There is no published limit.
    iCloud is not really a great solution for Corporate security and loss prevention.  An exchange server profile on the device would be a better solution.  While that will not provide tracking, the Find My iPhone feature is easily defeatable and is intended more for lost devices than stolen devices.

  • HT5616 I have multiple phones and iPads and all are linked to one iCloud account and one iTunes Account.  I want to keep the same iTunes Account so I can share music, etc., however, I want each device to have its own iCloud account.  How do I do this?

    I have multiple phones and iPads and all are linked to one iCloud account and one iTunes Account.  I want to keep the same iTunes Account so I can share music, etc., however, I want each device to have its own iCloud account.  Any help on how I can I do this?

    You'll need to create an Apple ID for each device. Use the new Apple ID for FaceTime, iMessage and iCloud on the device. Use the original Apple ID for Settings>iTunes & App Store.

    Bryan,
    According to iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID:
    "Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days."

    You got it with that same apple id thing. You can use different apple id's, but then they will not sync. Apple does allow as many free apple id's as you want, but they are in the business to make money.

  • Hi.iforgot to erase iphone 4s and removed it from my friends icloud account.now itunes says this account cannot be used to activate this iphone.i have his id and password,can log in to his icloud account but cant activate iphone.how to solve this problem?

    hi.i bought an iphone 4s from my friend.connected to itunes to restore it for a fresh install.after restoring to ios7 i realised that activation lock is enabled.i called my friend and get his id and pass.itunes said pass is wrong and cant activate the phone.then i logged in my friends icloud account (icloud.com said pass is ok) with same password and i removed the phone from 'find my iphone' list.but i forgot to erase the phone before removing it.now itunes says ''this apple id cannot be used to activate this iphone''.when i log in to icloud i cant see the phone in 'find my iphone' list so cant erase it now.can you please advise me step by step how to activate this phone?

    APPLE says:If the previous owner is not present
    Make sure the device is powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Then contact the previous owner and ask them to follow these steps:
    Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
    Select the device from their Find My iPhone device list by clicking All Devices at the top of the screen.
    Erase the device by clicking the Erase button. This will erase all content and settings from the device. When prompted, do not enter a phone number or message. Click Next until the device is erased.
    When the erase is complete, click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
    After the device has been erased and removed from the account, you can proceed with the device setup process.
    i forgot to erase the phone.i just removed it without erasing.

  • How many apple ids can I have on one icloud account

    I have one apple ID.  My iphone is linked to this apple ID and so is our Ipad.  The ipad gets all of my mail, but also gets all of my text messages.  This is not the greatest situation.  When my husband got his work iphone, he was told to use my apple id so he would have access to all of my music and purchased items.  That really messed things up because he was getting all of my mail and suddenly all of our contacts were shared.  Not good!
    We are now trying to set up a new ipod touch for one of the kids.  Don't want the same situation as above.  I want this to have a separate identity but still be on our account so it can share all of my apple purchases. 
    What is the best way to do this?  I briefly talked to someone at the apple store a few months back and he said that you can have multiple apple ids on one account.  Anyone have any tips on setting these up?  Want to avoid any unnecessary newbie mistakes.

    You can't have multiple IDs on one account, but you can use multiple IDs for different purposes on the same device.
    Just use the one AppleID for iTunes and the AppStore so you can all share your music and app purchases. Then each person should have their own individual AppleID with associated iCloud account for mail, contacts, calendars, iMessage and FaceTime.
    You don't have to use the same AppleID for all services.

  • How to sync messages between computer and iPhone?

    Is there a way to automatically sync messages on my mac with messages on my iPhone?  Currently if I receive a message it appears on both the Mac and the phone.  However, if I delete the message from the iPhone it is not deleted from messages on my Mac until I do so manually.  Thanks!

    "Currently if I receive a message it appears on both the Mac and the phone.  However, if I delete the message from the iPhone it is not deleted from messages on my Mac until I do so manually."
    That's the way it's going to work. Manually.
    But to make sure post in the iPhone forum where those experts are.

  • How to de-authorise a computer which has been scrapped so I can authorise a new one?

    As the title says. According to iTunes I have 5 computers authorised to an old email address which I purchased many songs through. I've never owned 5 computers and indeed my new email address had only been linked to two computers but iTunes says this is my 5th!! The old computer was scrapped several years ago so I can't de-authorise it. What now?
    Any answers please bear in mind I'm a muggle where computers are concerned :-)
    Thanks in advance

    Your  music will only be where you put it.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup cop of your computer.
    Certainly you did not have our computer serviced without making sure your backup copy was up to date.
    In some countries you can redownload some content:

  • On how many devices can I download and watch a purchased movie

    My teacher in school is looking for the cheapest way for all of our class to have access to a movie we are studying. I would like to know how many devices can be linked with one itunes account, so if our teacher created an account and purchased the movie could all/some of our class download it from icloud and watch it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello honor7,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Please see the following information for the limit of devices that can be associated with a single Apple ID.
    Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it, with a maximum of 5 computers at any time.

  • How many devices can I link to my I-cloud/I-match account?

    I have an I-cloud and I-match account with all my music on, most of which consists of my own cd's copied onto it.  I've just bought my mum an iPod nano 6th generation for her birthday and I want to put some music onto it for her so it's all ready to go.  I'm aware I can't put music I bought from I-tunes onto her device but can I copy my copied cd collection onto it for her?  I have 4 Apple devices already linked to my account.
    I'll be copying from a MacBook Pro to her device, then the rest of the time her downloads will be added on a Windows PC.  Is this possible/legal?  How many devices can you link to one iTunes account?
    Many thanks.

    For the main question:  http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/.
    You can authorize up to 10 devices on iTunes Match. 
    An iPod nano is not a device that works with iTunes Match so any music you put in it will have to go through itunes. Which means yes, you can put music you've bought from itunes on her device, as well as your imported music. That iPod won't count as one of the 10 devices either because it will not be using iTunes Match.
    Your plan might not go so smoothly if you plan on synchronizing the ipod to two different libraries.  You'd be safer importing any music you want to share with her from your library to her computer either by downloading with your own Apple ID or through another media (DVD,  external HD...) and authorizing.  And yes, this is legal, but you may only authorize a limited number of computers with your Apple ID:   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • How can i decide how many dimensions are needed here.and which charactersti

    Hi,
            i am planning to create custom defined cube for sale order line item data.  how can i decide how many dimensions are needed here.and which characterstics are suitable for that dimensions.
    Thanks,
    chandu.

    Hi Chandra,
    How many dimensions are needed and which characteristics to be used totally depends upon the data model you are using.
    for instance  take an example of school.
    teachers , students are the imp terms in this example .
    you can choose these two as dimensions .
    teacher's name , address  , subject , class , designation etc can be its characteristics . and for students also the important terms describing them can be its characteristics.
    for more understanding of the Dimensional Modeling you can refer to following link.

    Hope It Helps .
