HT5824 what if my husband and I are getting the same contacts?
When we upgraded to IOS 7 for some reason my husbands phone and mine are now in sync with the same contacts and calendar information. We want our information seperate. I deleted my contacts off of his phone but unfortunately they were deleted from my phone as well. We don't undertand why this is happening.
That's because I guess that you are both using the same account, right? Please check which account you set up: Settings > iCloud and/or Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars

n my house we have 2 iphone 4, and everytime we get the same contact list freom each other, how can we unsync the contacts so each user keeps thir own contact list?
Hi user 1724, before icloud, we had the same issue....
so yes, the solution was to each log into the mac separately.
i kept the main itunes library and apple id, and my son made his own itunes library (which linked to the main itunes/apple id) - so we were able to maintain separate contacts lists.
but then w/ the cloud i guess we assumed the cloud would know we each have different contact lists on diff. phones, but it seems the cloud just lumped it all together - -
Adding contacts to one iphone and another iphone gets the same contacts
I have just recieved an iphone 4s and my sister got one as well. We are on the same plan. We were addding contacts to our phone and noticed we both were getting the same contacts. When i added a contact she would get that same contact. Is there a way to fix this without going to the apple store/verizon?

My husband has a ton of songs in iTunes that I don't want on my iPod nano. Is there a way to set up a separate account on the same computer in iTunes? Do I have to un-tick all of his songs (would take forever!! And then he would have to tick them again)....when we sync our iPods?
No. Its not possible.
Alternatively, create another user account in your computer. Install iTunes in that account with the library you wish to sync. -

My wife and I are using the same apple ID. Up until last week we used to buy an app and pay for it only once, but use it on both devices.
since last week, the app store asks me to pay again for an app i already paid for on one device. On both devices automatic downloads (in settings) is and was always turned off.
what can I do to fix this?Actually no. After installing an app on one device, I used to see an "install" button on the second device (since it's already been paid for). Now i get the full price button on the second device. I didn't want to proceed with the purchase because i didn't want to be billed twice.

hi can anyone help please ? i have had apple products now for apron 7 years BUT have never been able to make the bluetooth work , not even when 2 products i.e. : phone and iPod are in the same room. So i stopped trying but would like to set it up between my iMac and iphone / ipad but can't get it to work, they say discoverable but just will not connect to one another. I also tried the connection code and tried without one ... NO JOY ... Is this common or am i a twit ?
You can't connect an iPhone or iPad to a Mac via Bluetooth, except for Internet tethering.
You're not doing anything wrong - it just isn't a feature of iOS devices.
What were you hoping a Bluetooth connection would allow you to do? -
I keep getting an error that my billing info for my card doesnt match my bank info, but it does. Nothing has ever been changed. I called my bank, the card company, and all are exactly the same, word for word as my billing info in iTunes.
In fact, every time I get the error code that billing doesnt match, my card gets charged a $1.00 authorization fee. It later falls off, but it shows my card is being billed when they say they cant verify billing info.
I called Apple support and they want to charge me to get their crap together.
I need to do some updates and by a couple apps for work and am about ready to go to ANdroid if I cant get it fixed.

My MacBook Pro, running 10.7.3, does not recognize when my iPhone and iPad are on the same network, thus it does not synch. Any ideas?
Try the basics first:
Change your router channel number. Most times this works & is all you have to do.
Disconnect & reconnect your modem. unplug it for about 10 seconds. Plug it back in. Do the same for Apple’s routers. Wait for everything to reboot.
System Preferences>Network
Click the Assist Me button.
In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.

Went to watch a video on You Tube that I have watched before on my iMac and got the prompt that I had to upload Adobe Flash Player. Did that, and am still getting the same prompt and can't watch any videos at all. What is going on here, Apple??
I do not know how to do this with an Apple TV (I don't have one), but as far as I know Apple TV only does mirroring.
If you have an HDMI cable long enough to reach your TV from where you sit, then it's easy. The TV could be set up in Extended Desktop mode (mirroring off) as if it was simply another computer monitor, and then you could just drag windows to it. If you have the Displays icon in your menu bar, that's where the setting is, or if the icon is not there, then the setting is in the Displays system preference. But again, that's for conventionally connected monitors, not Apple TV. If you don't have an HDMI cable and wanted a long one that's affordable you can get those at monoprice.com.
The answer we are still waiting for is if anyone knows if Apple TV can be used in extended desktop (non-mirroring) mode. -

I purchased an iphone for my daughter and we are using the same account and she deleted some contacts from her phone and they were deleted off of my contacts as well. Is there a way to use icloud backup to reinstall the contacts to my phone?
Welcome to the Apple community.
You can only restore them from a Computer backup. This has occurred because you are sharing an iCloud account. ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, that way you can each manage your own mail, contacts, calendars, documents etc and avoid unintentional deletions and unwanted editing. If there is information you wish to share between you, this can be done with a secondary account.
Having separate iCloud accounts, doesn't mean you have to have separate iTunes accounts, so whilst you keep your personal data separate, you can continue to share music, apps, books, TV shows, movies etc. -

I am having an installation failure issue with my itunes 11 software. File is corrupted and i don't know what to do. I've un-install and re-installed the software three times and continue to get the same error message. It states that "This copy of ITunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly. Please reinstall Itunes"
iMac, iOS 6HI,
If your old version of iTunes is still working - then I sugest you stick with that.
iTunes 11 is a lousy update - It will not retain your playlists, you can't find and delete duplicates... and a whole arry of oyher issues. (have a look around this forum to see how many issues IT11 gives people)
Just a friendly advise and warning :-) -

Or remove you from his, it's moot because You and He are the same account, either get him his own (they are free) or live with this cozy but privacy compromised method.
