I have Two apple ids: one apple id will not authorize on same computer.

I just purchased a new imac. I have two apple ids. Stupid, I know.
I was able to authorize one of the apple ids on my iMac. When I try to authorize the other apple id, I get the message "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."  I keep getting this message day after day.
Also, when I hook up my new iphone 5S to my computer I also get this message "This computer is no longer authorized for apps that are installed on the iphone. Would you like to authorize this computer for items purchased from the iTunes store? If you do not authorize this computer, 22 apps, including "Airport", and their data will be deleted from this iphone."  I get the choices: cancel, Don't Authorize, or Authorize.  So, I click Authorize, I put in my apple ID and password and get the message "We cold not complete your itunes store request. The itunes store is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later." This is when I try to sign in with my apple ID that I can not seem to authorize.
I deauthorized both apple ids from my old imac.
Any help would be appreciated!

  • Two Apple IDs, one iCloud ID, will it work?

    Two Apple IDs, one iCloud ID, will it work?
    In my house we have two iPhones and one Mac.  My husband and I have two separate Mac accounts, separate  iTunes accounts and one common Mobile Me account we use to synch Calendar and Address book between our Mac and our devices.  In our separate iTunes libraries we have separate songs, podcast settings, and separate apps.  We use one common iPhoto library for our two Mac accounts (which we keep on an external volume with Permissions disabled, to avoid file privilege issues in iPhoto.
    It's all working well with MobileMe, but I'm concerned iCloud will make a big mess.
    We want common calendar.
    We want common address book.
    We want separate Apps (no room for us both to have all apps).
    We want some shared reminders (like shopping list) but some separate ones (like work tasks).  I understand there is a bug about this, but I don't know the resolution (https://bugreport.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/RadarWeb.woa/4/wo/lHQWT8NZajvGPvP 7ObMPj0/8.66)
    We don't care much about common PhotoStream (as long as it works for one of us).
    How can we make this all work, when we move to iCloud? 
    How do we control what synchs and what does not synch?
    Has anyone done this kind of complex setup before?
    Thanks,
    Peter

  • HT204053 I have two iPads and one apple ID. How can I FaceTime to/from each iPad? Do I need to set up a second apple id or is there a way around this?

  • I have two phones on one apple ID. After one updated yesterday on icloud it automatically took my contacts off and put the other ones on there. They still show up if I actually type them in when texting but not in the list.

    I have two phones on one apple ID. My son updated to icloud last night and when he did it took my contacs off of my phone and put his in there. When I go to text the numbers I can still find but when I click on the contacts they do not show. Is there a way to change this without restoring the last back up?

    You'll have to migrate one of the phones to a different account, then delete the other person's data from each account (you can continue to share the same Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and app stores). 
    Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. 
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't from each account.

    On the iPad open Settings/iCloud and delete the account using the button at the bottom. Once deleted log in using the other account. For iTunes Stores use Settings/iTunes & Apps Stores, tapp on the Apple ID at the top then sign out. Once done sign in using the other account. Once you are happy with the changes plug your iPad into your computer to update the backup.

  • I have two phones with one apple id i have lost most of my contacts from one of them

    i have two phones with the same apple id but i have lost most of my contacts from one phone

    Apps are tied to the Apple Id they were purchased with. So any updates for the Apps will ask for that apple ID to update.
    The only way to prevent this is if you remove all the Apps that were purchased with your ID from the iPad.

  • I have more music than 25,000 songs, can I have two accounts under one apple ID?

    Is there a way to add more songs or a second account to one apple ID?

    Just to be clear, iTunes Store purchases made with the same Apple ID being used for iTunes Match do not count towards the 25,000 song limit.

  • I have two iphones and one Apple id. Pretty confused how to have different content on them.

    Hi All,
    I have my old iphone 5s and recently I bought a iphone 6. What I want to do is to use same apple id on both of them, but I want to have different apps and media on them.
    I plan to use the iphone 5s as my 2nd phone, so I do not need same apps/music/movies/books on them. Any tips how I can keep them different? Every time I sync I have to manually select the books and music I want to have on my phone. I want to create two different profiles for my phones which will have different apps, books and music.
    I do not use icloud, so that is not a problem for me.
    Thanks,
    Sas

  • Two devices under one apple ID, how do I keep my privacy?

    I have two devices under one apple ID, my sister's iPhone 4s and my own iPod touch 5. iMessages and FaceTime requests etc are being sent to both devices instead of the specific one it's meant to be sent to. For example, I am recieving the iPhone's iMessages on my iPod as well, when they are meant to be only sent to the iPhone. Also, will safari history and bookmarks/app downloads and passwords etc be shown on both devices as well?

    Remember this construct:
    One Apple ID per individual; one device per Apple ID. If you have two devices you should have an Apple ID for each unless you want both devices to draw from the same iTunes Library. This is your situation now.
    If you open iTunes and select one device to configure, then go through the configuration options for Apps, Music, etc. and select what you want synched to that device. Repeat the process for your other device. This is the best you can do to keep each device's configuration different.

  • I have two Apple IDs - one associated with iPad and iPhone and the other associated with iMac and MacAir. I am going to lose the former e-mail address imminently and would like to associate all devices with just one ID. How do I do this? Thanks

    Thanks - I guess it is like there were two of me!
    I bought the iPhone first and it seemed natural to link it to the (work) e-mail address which was in constant use. The iMac for home use came next and it seemed natural to use my home e-mail address, particularly as I knew by then that I would lose the work address after my imminent retirement. The same logic went for the recent puchase of the MacAir. I am not sure what happened with the iPad (also a recent purchase) - iTunes seemed to puch me towards the same ID as the iPhone.
    It is not a huge problem - just makes my persona look schizoid! Otherwise very happy with everything Apple.
