HT5557 how do my wife and I share books we've purchased on our devices but under separate itunes accounts

My wife and I both have iphone 4s phones and I have and ipad2 and she has an ipad3, how do we share ibooks that we've purchased thru our seperate itunes accounts

You cannot. Content can only be downloaded on other devices using the same ID. You own the book, and the license to that book does not permit sharing.

    If you each have separate iCloud accounts with different IDs, you can add the other person's account to your device(s) by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and signing in with their ID.  These "secondary accounts" will sync mail, contacts, calendars, reminders and notes.

  • I have 2 iphones, 1 personal and 1 business.  I thought I was supposed to have 2 separate itunes accounts.  I now have a work ipad and want to only have 1 itunes account that I can use for all 3 devices.  How do I cancel 1 account or just combine the 2?

  • How can my wife and I share our iTunes account?

    My wife has an iTunes account as do I, but we are ideally trying to combine them so that we have a central iTunes library that we can both pull from. Is this possible?  We are on Windows Vista platform outside of our apple products.
    We have 2 iPhones and several iPods.

  • How do my wife and i share just one music account?

    Ive had an iphone and an itunes account for a long time, and now that im married my wife also has an iphone, but with a seperate itunes account.
    i have thousands of songs, she has only one album.
    it seems dumb to me to have to purchase all that music a second time so i can install them on her phone.
    so what do we do so we can share the music ive already purchased?

    Hi 4ork,
    When you hook up your wife's iPhone to sync, you need to go to the Music tab, and select "Sync Music". Then, within that tab, you need to select what music you want to sync. The easiest way to do this is to create a Playlist that has all of the music she wants on her iPhone. Then, when you go to the Music tab, you tell it to sync to selected Playlists, Artists, Albums, etc., and then just check the Playlist that has her music.
    You can create regular playlists, where you just drag and drop whatever music you want into the playlist, or you can create smart playlists that will automatically put new music in a particular playlist if you want it to. Regular playlists are the place to start. Try one out for her, and later, if you want to get more fancy, you can look into creating smart playlists.
    My husband and I share an iTunes library, and i have created several smart playlists. One for my "Workin' Music", one for my "Nano", one for "Christmas Music" etc. as well as ones for his iPod. Then, when I sync, I just have the normal playlists sync with my iPhone, but, at Christmas, I also check the Christmas Playlist to sync so I have it for the season. Once the season is over, I uncheck it, and it is taken off of my phone until next year.
    As long as you have both signed on to the iTunes library you are syncing with, and as long as you have both authorized that computer to your iTunes sign-on, you can share (or eliminate) any music you wish from your individual devices.
    Cheers,

  • Ever since my wife and I upgraded to iOS 8 all of our devices now ring on incoming calls.   She also gets all of me texts. How do I stop these actions?

    Ever since I upgraded to iOS 8 all of my apple phones and IPad now ring when there's an incoming call.  My wiife now gets all my texts on her phone. How do we fix these issues?

    The phone ringing issue has to do with all of the devices being logged into iCloud with the same Apple ID and being on the same Wi-Fi network. While in proximity like that, go into Settings>FaceTime and turn off iPhone cellular calls. It is part of the continuity feature.
    The fact that you are receiving messages is some of the same doing. You need to go into Settings>Messages on both devices, go to Send & Receive and make sure that just your phone number is selected on each of the devices. The phone number for that particular device.  Do the same for Start conversation from, and make sure that it is the phone number only.

  • How do my wife and I both edit a shared document on our iPads?

    We both use iPads as our primary devices. When I share a Numbers document with her through iCloud, she can open the link on her computer but not on her iPad. On the iPad it is suggested that she download a copy of the document, but then any changes she makes don't populate back into the document that was shared. Seems like a huge oversight to not provide a mechanism for collaboration on iPads when they are quickly becoming the primary, or even only, computing device for many people.

    At this stage it is apparently only possible to collaborate the way you want if one or both parties are using the webapp, which is not available via an iOS device.
    You can ask Apple to fix this via

  • Please, help!!!!! How can i delete Angry birds not only from my device (iPhone 4), but from my iTunes account,too? I am a new user.

    I am a new user of iPhone 4. I have problems with "Angry birds". I heard that i can fix the problem by deleting the application. So, the question is : How can i delete the game not only from my device, but from my iTunes account,too? Please, help!!!

    You can just tap and hold any icon to put into Edit mode.  There you can delete.
    Or you can just tell iTunes not to sync it.
    To remove from iTunes just click on it in list and press delete.

    Using More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
    This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
    On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library
    Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data.  Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
    Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
    Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
    Note: The essence of the above was created by user, randers4. I
    have made substantial changes to improve readability and syntax.
