You should be able to call the iPad using your Apple ID from the iPhone. When calling from iPad use the iPhone's phone number to initiate the call.

  • My househoulse is full of Apple products. We have Ipad, Ipod, and Iphone, but they are all registered under same email. Therefore, we can not facetime with each other. Does anyone know how I could change this?

    How do I facetime with the same email address on the Apple product?

    The iphone identification should be its phone number, for other devices, such as ipad, ipod, imac you must generate a new e-mail address for each.  You can do this by using Yahoo mail, google mail, or perhaps the e-mail system that your internet service provider offers.  The point is, each unit needs its own id.

  • TS1474 Two iPhones sharing the same iTunes account - how do we create a new account for one of them now that both phones have been registered with the same account?

    We have recently upgraded 2 iPhones to the 4S and are having difficulties registering with the same log in and passwords in iTunes. 
    How can we re-register one of them with it's own identity and avoid the same apps being copied o both devices?
    We would like each iPhone to have it's own identity but use the same computer for backing up.

    Hi, you will need to set up a new user account on the computer. The iTunes on this new user will be empty but you can download past iTunes purchases from the iTunes store

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Once you have enabled find my phone in your iCloud settings on your phone and find my mac in iCloud settings on your Mac, you can log in at iCloud.com and see both devices on the Find my Phone feature there.

  • Hi, both my husband and I have iphones synced to my apple id. It seems that we can't facetime due to this as it's like my email address is calling my email address! Is there anyway to fix this or will we need to create a new id for my husband's phone?

    settings - facetime - remove the apple id, on your husband phone.
    He should create his own id for imessage and facetime.

  • HT204380 can i facetime my ipad from my iphone?

    hi, i am having trouble with facetime.
    i was just wondering if i could facetime my ipad from my iphone?

    both superiormac and iCrizzo are wrong i have an iphone and an ipad 2 and have tried the same.
    the key is to call the mobile no. (with which you registered the iphone) using the ipad or call the apple id you have on the ipad from iphone. But you have to sign out from the apple id from the facetime option in the iphone.

  • When trying to FaceTime my iPad from my iPhone it say I'm busy why

    Why cant I FaceTime my iPad from my iPhone 4 - messages says I'm busy and I'm not

    If the address you are using is the iPhone number, you are, in effect, calling youreslf, so you are "busy."

  • HT4436 Why is my daughter receiving my text messages on her itouch when I send them from my iphone? We are both on icloud so how can I separate the two? Do I need another icould or apple account??

    Why is my daughter receiving my text messages on her itouch when I send them from my iphone? We are both on icloud so how can I separate the two? Do I need another icould or apple account??

    It's happening because you are using the same Apple ID for iMessage.  You don't need to do anything with your iCloud account to fix this.  You should create a separate Apple ID for her device to use with iMessage and FaceTime.  (You can continue to share the same ID for purchasing from the iTunes and App stores if you wish; it doesn't need to be the same as the ID you use for other services.)  Once you've done this, on her device go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the new ID.  Do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
    Another caution is that if you share and iCloud account with her, any data you both sync with the account such as contacts, will be merged and the merged data will appear on both devices.  If you don't want to end up with each other's contacts, calendars, etc. on your devices, you should have separate iCloud accounts to.  If you want to make this change, go to Settings>iCloud on her device and tap Delete Account.  (This only deletes the account from the device, not from iCloud.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data be sure to choose Keep On My iPod.  Then set up a new iCloud account with her new ID, turn on iCloud data syncing again, and when prompted choose Merge.

  • I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring.

    I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring. One phone is for work and one is for private and I don't need both phones to ring from one call. It's bizarre.......is this supposed to be like this? If so where can I turn it off?? And while we are at it iOS8 has installed iBooks on both of my phones and iTunes won't let me uninstall it. I don't need or want iBooks on my phones.

    Hi,
    There are two easy fixes to this.
    One, you can set up Family Sharing, in which you can have two different iCloud Accounts, yet still share the same apps, music, media etc.
    Two, go to Settings and turn-off "Handoff". This can be found under the General page.
    Hope this helps!

  • Can I put the 2Gb RAM (X2) from my MacBook Pro into my MacBook 5,1? The intel is different (2Ghz not 2.3) and the speed is 1067 not 1333. But they are both DDR3.

    Can I put the 2Gb RAM (X2) from my MacBook Pro into my MacBook? The intel is different (2Ghz not 2.3) and the speed is 2000 not 1333. But they are both DDR3.
    I have just upgraded the Pro to 16Gb and the MacBook is SO slow. Just wondering if I could use the old RAM.

    Full specification of MB5.1 RAM;
    204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM, non-ECC (non parity), unbuffered.
    MBP8.1, 8.2 or 8.3;
    204-pin PC3-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM, non-ECC (non parity), unbuffered.
    PC3 is the same as DDR3. the number is peak transfer rate (approximated).
    Further reading suggests your swap may work, but it's not guaranteed. If you get 3 beeps on start up (or the sleep light flashing in bursts of 3), first check it's correctly seated, but be prepared to swap them back.
    If you encounter any instability or kernel panics, change them back.

  • Hello, I'm using Mountain Lion and mail does not leave the mails on the server, either on iCloud nor on other suppliers (orange). They are both using iMap protocol... Any place where I could change this ? Thanks for any hall; Christian

    Under what circumstances does mail "not leave the mails on the server"?
    If you mean that you delete them (or move them out of the inbox) on one device and then find them not in the inbox on the server when you look from another device, that's how IMAP is supposed to work. (Note that the deletion or moving might be the result of rules you have set up in Mail.)
    If you mean something else, please explain your issue in more detail.

  • Two users share one Apple ID, on two phones. can they be separated without losing phone backups? IE creating a new ID for one of the users?

    my in-laws share one apple id for two separate iPhones. They would like to create a new ID for one of the users but maintain his current backup. can this be done?

    If you want to create a new account make sure you sign out of everything via the settings. (ICloud, iTunes, facetime, messages, etc) APPS: since the apps were downloaded with a different apple ID, you will always need to use the password for the apple ID that downloaded that particular APP when it needs to be updated. Unless it is free, you can simply delete it and download it under the new apple ID. As for the music, you can keep it on the IOS device,  but if it's accidentally deleted, you'd have to sign back into the original account and download from the cloud. (But, you risk getting the 90 day lockout. )

  • How can I remove songs from my iphone but they still stay in my library

    I have set up my music to sync only checked items, however, all the songs are still on my iphone.  I only want certain songs on my phone, but it still shows several songs that I have not checked off.  How do I remove songs from my iphone but they still will stay in my library. 

    What you need to do is go to music, and slide your finger to the right on the song you want to remove from your device. The song will still show in the music app but will have a cloud with an arrow beside it and you would have to re-download the song to your device to be able to listen to it. And also, this will only take the song off your device and it won't be removed from your library on iTunes. I hope this helps!
