If I have an ipod touch and justpurchased an ipod, do I use the same apple ID or do I create a new one for each device?

Keep the same apple id. By all means. I tunes will recognize the different devices, and you can share or not share whatever you want.
The kiss of death is multiple apple ids.

I have an iPad1 and just purchased an iPad Air, both on the same iTunes account. Is it possible to UNSYNC the two iPads. I would like to use the iPad1 as a library for my frequent guests: KINDLE, AUDIBLE,

I have an iPad1 and just purchased an iPad Air, both of which are on the same iTunes account. Is it possible to UNSYNC the two iPads with the purpose of using the iPad1 as a "Bare-Bones" library for my frequent guests: The content of my KINDLE, AUDIBLE, & ZINIO Accounts/Apps. How would I go about doing this, if it is at all possible?

Is it possible to have an Iphone and an IPAD on the same Itunes account on a PC?
yes.
the number of mobile devices you can use with a single instance of iTunes is virtually unlimited.

Just purchased an ipad, can I use the same charger as for my ipod touch?

I just purchased an Ipad2 and wonder if I can use the same charger for it as my Ipod touch uses?

I doubt it, as my ipod recharger doesn't seem to charge my iPad at all hence the (Not Charging) where the battery would be.
Hope this helps

I have an ipod touch and just updated my software to ios 7.1.2. Now I get the message that my adapter, accessory does not support my device. Is there a new adapter that I need to buy that works with the ios 7.1.2?

This is not my problem. However, I think it may be related to an old speaker. I was using the 30 pin adapter for about a week after the upgrade to 7.1.2. But I think with the update the speaker won't work anymore. I will try with a new speaker system. Thank you for trying to assist.

We have 2 ipods & would like to sync different songs to each using the same Itunes. How do we accomplish this?

We have 2 ipods & would like to sync different songs to each using the same itunes library. How do we accomplish this?

Use one of the several outlined methods in this Apple support document. I personally like the individual playlist set up where you add everything you want to a specific playlist and then set up each iPod to sync that one playlist that contains all the content you would like to be synced to it.

We have multiple devices in our family. On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes. When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name??

We have multiple devices in our family. On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes. When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name and not theirs as the commenter. How do I fix that?

CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups
Decide on whether to setup as Admin or Standard User.
Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar or use Fast User Switching
Fast User Switching allows other users to leave current applications and windows open. Depending on RAM, you might need to log out rather than use FUS.

HT204053 What are the pros and cons of 1) choosing to use the SAME Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or 2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides

All is in the title, so I repeat it below with a better identation.
What are the pros and cons of
1) choosing to use the SAME
Apple ID for iCloud services on one side, and
purchases on the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore, on the other side; or
2) to have and use two separate Apple Ids for these "two sides"?
P.S.
I have loads and loads of free podcasts in iTunes in my iMac, that are certainly more thant the 5 gigas the iCloud provides for free, so I don't want those to go to the cloud. But this is perhaps a different question...
Also need to mention that I have itunes on a mac, a pc and an iphone.
Sorry to look so silly with this question, but I don't get the "big picture".

You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

I have an iPhone 5s and an iPad 2 both using the same Apple ID how can I FaceTime the iPad from the iPhone?

I have an iPhone 5s and an iPad 2 both using the same Apple ID sometime I'd like to FaceTime the iPad from the iPhone to talk to my wife while at work how can I get it to do this it always says unavailable.

Naw I figure it out without all that had to go into the FaceTime settings and only use the phone number on the iphone and only use the Apple ID on the iPad works great now no need for two Apple ID or any signing in and out.
Thanks for your help though

My husband and I both have facetime on our laptops. I believe we both are using the same apple id. Does he have to have a seperate apple id so we can use face time?

My husband and I both have facetime on our laptops. I believe we both are using the same apple id. Does he have to have a seperate apple id so we can use face time?

I believe you can manage your laptops with one Apple id, but I recommend that you have individual Calling ID's for each laptop. This calling ID is under the "You can be reached for calls at:" line when your in Facetime preferences. This will allow you two guys to call each other on your laptops, plus you don't have to be bothered by people calling him, or visa versa.

I have an iPod Touch and an iPad4. iTunes recognises both items and lets me work with the iPod Touch but won't work with the iPad. In fact iTunes does not respond to clicking on anything in the iPad window even though it knows that it's connected. Any ideas?

Look her and it may give insite on what is missing. Otherwise:
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99. Likely not worth it for a your iPod. They do not fix yours.

An icloud account is designed to be used by one user. That user can have all his/her devices synced with the same Apple data (email, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc.) . When two people use the same account, then problems usually occur when one user edits data that the other user doesn't want changed on their device. You can continue sharing the same ID for the itunes account in order to share the purchased music, apps, etc. itunes accounts and icloud accounts are different.
It's by far better that each user has his/her own icloud account.

My friend bought the Lion upgrade for her MacBook. She would also like to upgrade her desktop Mac which is current running Leopard. Does she have to buy SnowLeopard for her Mac first? Both computers use the same apple ID and password.

My friend bought the Lion upgrade for her MacBook. She would also like to upgrade her desktop Mac to Lion which is currently running Leopard. Does she have to first buy a SnowLeopard upgrade for her desktop? And will the upgrade from SnowLeopard to Lion then be free? Both computers use the same apple ID.

She would also like to upgrade her desktop Mac to Lion which is currently running Leopard.
She needs to purchase Snow Leopard but she can re download Lion on the desktop for free after Snow Leopard is installed.
And definitely use the same Apple ID to download Lion on the desktop.
