I need to keep my contacts on my iPad separate from my iPhone - can this be done?

I have a "work" iphone and a "personal" ipad - I don't want the information on both to be combined.  Can this be done?

Hi webbmommy17,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
You can create a separate iCloud / Apple ID for your iPad to keep your personal contacts, calendars, etc. separate.  This article will explain:

  • Need to send photos contact etc to ipad. From my Samsung galaxy s ? Ipad will not download Samsung kias to do it via wifi need help ASAP

    Need to send all my info from Samsung galaxy s to my ipad nothing seams to work.

    Your contacts on your Samsung should be synched to your google account so on your iPad go to Settings-->Mai,Contacts, Calendars. Add your google account. As for your photos I would use Dropbox. It's free and can be used across mutiple devices. Download and install Dropbox on your Samsung and then synch your photos to your Dropbox by sharing the photos to Dropbox. I'm not too familiar with the Galaxy tab but it should have a built in photo app with an option to share your photos. What else do you need to transfer over?

  • Can I lock a contact so I can't accidentally call it?  I need to keep them unblocked to track calls/texts from them...

    Can I lock a contact so I can't accidentally call it?  I need to keep them unblocked to document their calls/texts so I can't delete them.

    Yes. AIFF performs no compression so your copy will be bit for bit identical: no loss. It uses a lot of disk space too. Apple Lossless (ALAC) will compress, but also with no loss. Expect file sizes about 50% of the original.
    The sample rate of 44.1 KHz is identical to that of every commercially produced audio CDs that I am aware of. There is no benefit in increasing it or attempting to "tweak" its settings.
    I used Toast for many years and consider it a well designed product. I have not had any reason to upgrade to more recent versions though. If you copy the CD audio with no loss (AIFF or ALAC), then that obviates any question about sound quality since it will be identical to the original. Toast may be able to alter the sound quality but I don't advocate trying to improve upon what is essentially your only "master" - the audio CD. As I recall Toast had features such as noise reduction. That may be valuable for magnetic tape, but it's not a concern with a CD. Even very good noise reduction alters the original to some extent, and it seems to me that you want an exact duplicate. Any alteration will be contrary to your stated goal of bit-for-bit reproduction.
    Don't know about Amadeus Pro.

  • My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contact to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone

    My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contacts to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone?

    If you have the contacts on the phone you can sync the phone to the computer. The contacts should then show in address book. At this point you can sync the address book data to iCloud. You have to make sure the iCloud account is setup on the computer and this will not work unless the computer is running 10.7.2 of course. There are other ways to add the contacts to iCloud like through the phone but the phone must be running iOS5. If it is you can simply add the cloud account to the phone and toggle the contacts slider. You will get a prompt to keep or delete the contact data. Of course you keep. Then you will get a prompt to merge at which point you do. This should merge the contacts on the phone with iCloud. Hope this helps.

  • I have an iphone 4S with broken wifi (!) and I need to sync my contacts before I set up my new iphone 6. I thought contacts synced automatically with itunes but seems not.  I've found my Apple address book but contacts are outdated. What to do? Help!

    I have an iphone 4S with broken wif i :-( and I need to sync my contacts before I set up my new iphone 6. I thought contacts synced automatically with itunes but seems not.  I've found my Apple address book but contacts are outdated. What to do? Help!

    If your Bluetooth is working, you may be able to tether your phone to another device, and backup that way.  Either via iCloud or one of many Apps that send yourself a VCF file containing your contacts.
    You may have to update to a later IOS via USB and iTunes, not sure if IOS 6 has Bluetooth Tethering.
    I would have thought you could also switch off cloud sync'ing for your contacts, this should ask a question if you want to keep the contacts on your phone.  An iTunes Backup and then Restore to your new iPhone should restore the local contacts.  Then sync these back to the iCloud.
    Hope this helps.

  • HT204150 is it possible to retrive a stored contact once its been deleted from your iphone? i deleted a number from my phone like 2-3 months ago and now i need it back. is it possible to retrive this contact or either view my past call log from around the

    is it possible to retrive or download a number/contact after its been deleted from your iphone? i deleted a number about 2-3 months ago and
    now i really need it back. is it possible to retrieve this number or maybe view or bring up my entire or past call log which would have this numer in it?

    If it's not on icloud.com any longer you can't restore it from iCloud.  (Contacts are only synced to your iCloud account, and are not included in the iCloud backup.)

  • I need to read data from a text file and display it in a datagrid.how can this be done..please help

    hey ppl
    i have a datagrid in my form.i need to read input(fields..sort of a database) from a text file and display its contents in the datagrid.
    how can this  be done.. and also after every few seconds reading event should be re executed.. and that the contents of the datagrid will keep changing as per the changes in the file...
    please help as this is urgent and important.. if possible please provide me with an example code as i am completely new to flex... 
    thanks.....  

    It's not possible to read from a file without using classes from the core API*. You'll have to get clarification from your instructor as to which classes are and are not allowed.

    This is all just a partial answer since details will depend upon how you want to do it.

    You'll need to get it all onto one iTunes collection on your Mac Pro, then sync the devices to that.  iTunes only lets you transfer purchases from a device, otherwise you have to use third party software.
    I guess you could also look into getting iTunes Match.

  • I have Firefox 28.0 and need Checkbox mate, but it won't sync, can this be done?

    I have Firefox 28.0 and need Checkbox mate, but it won't sync, can this be done?

    Sorry, I am not familiar with how that extension stores its settings or data, but most extensions needed to be edited or code added to make use of Firefox' ability to Sync extensions and their preferences and data.
    You need to contact the developer of that extension and suggest that feature be added. Mozilla builds the API and framework for syncing of extensions, it is up to each extension developer to make use of what Mozilla provided.

  • Can this be done somehow? I would like to see an App or Apple guidance were I can identify my name or number to certain phone contacts that I can choose from within my address book?

    Can this be done somehow? I would like to see an App or Apple guidance where I can identify my name or telephone number to certain phone contacts that I can choose from with my address book. As it stands now, it all or nothing. Thanks

    Not sure what they offer in Canada, but I use Google Voice. It provides a phone number that will ring through to your phone (or multiple phones if you want). There is a free app you can use to place calls so they appear from your Google Voice # instead of your 'real' number.
    I use the Google # for business calls/texts and only use "my" number for personal stuff.  Google gives you control over things like call screening and allows you te set timers for when it is permitted to ring through to your normal number, which is great for business calls. If I'm not on call, I keep the timer set to shut it down except during business hours.
    Might be worth looking into.

  • HT204053 I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it???

    I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as an email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it??? Or how can I reset the password if the email doesn't exist??? I also tried answering a question (my date of birth) but it says it's wrong.
    I'm really frustrated with the apple id!!!
    Frustrated!!!

    In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
    I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
    In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Adobe Bridge has been deleted and needs to be re-installed. How can this be done without reinstallin

    Adobe Bridge has been deleted and needs to be re-installed. How can this be done without reinstalling the entire CS5

    Hi RDMDanielM,
    Welcome to the Community!
    We cannot install Adobe Bridge as a Standalone product, you can just reinstall Photoshop and Bridge will be reinstalled with it. Go ahead and start uninstalling CS5 suite but choose Photoshop from the list and the same will be applicable while Installation.
    Thanks!

  • I have numbers on mac mini and need to email as an attachment  one sheet instead of the 30. Can this be done

    Can anyone help please. I have just downloads the numbers app. I have a very large document of which i need to send a separate sheet each week as an attachment via email. Can this be done?. Sadly, I am used to Neo and that was rather easy to do.   I could not find the answer for excell either!  Surely, saving each sheet separately is not the only answer. 

    File > Print
    set the print range "From "  = 1, "To" = 1 in the print dialog, then
    click the "PDF" button the bottom left and select "Mail PDF"
    If you must send a Numbers document, then I think I would copy the germane content into a new document and save as the current month (or week), then attach that document.

    Use return at any time to get the out variable, but this will stop the process.
