IPad with several accounts

Hallo. I have a problem with an iPad I borrowed for some time. It was an Apple ID already on the pad, with apps and all. I did not want to erase it as it was merely a loan, so I just let the apps be, and set up the pad with my own Apple ID, installed apps, even bought some. Now the loan must be delivered back and I am going to buy my own now that the Air has come. But, I need to back up my buys and the rest of the stuff. How? I would like everything associated with my account to be backed up, with the apps. Or, the entire iPad really, since there is maybe 10-20 apps that was located on it from before. But to do so I need to authorize the account which isn't mine..?

There is no problem about using one ID for iTunes, iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match, and another for iCloud and its email and syncing facilities. This way you can all use the same iTunes account but have separate emails and calendars etc.

IPad with two accounts

My wife and I have separate computers, iPads, and Apple Accounts. All of our iTunes movies were purchased on my MacbookPro. We are going on an extended trip and she would like some of the movies on her iPad to watch on the plane. How do I get them onto her iPad without having to re-sync her iPad on my computer? Or, if I have to sync with my account, how do I get just the movies onto her iPad without changing anything else?

Locate the movies in the Finder, move them to the other computer as you would any file, import them into that iTunes library, and sync the iPad from it. Rented movies can't be moved this way, and it may not work if the iPad already contains content from five iTunes Store accounts.

Syncing Ipad with old account

I have had to create a new ITunes account. When I try to sync my Ipad with the windows PC it does not take over all the songs from my PC. Is this because I have songs on my PC from two different accounts?

Any way to unlock an iPad with severly broken touch screen

My boss left his iPad 3 on the roof of his car. We located it through iCloud (he has one with an AT&T data plan) and recovered it. It is severly damaaged but the backlight does come on and it does connect to iTunes. We've already used iCloud to transfer his account to a new iPad, but he has 12GB of pics that are still on the device. Unfortunately when it was first lost I the iPad in Lost mode through iCloud. I took some sheets of paper and used another ipad to make a template of where the slide to unlock was located and the keypad to enter our passcode. I don't think the digitizer is working at all as I'm entering the passcode but it is not unlocking and thus I can't get it to back up in iTunes until it is unlocked. Is there any other way to enter the passcode other than the iPad screen?

Still can't unlock the device, but after putting it on a charger for awhile and then reconnecting to my PC, the DCIM folder contianing the pics is showing up through Windows Explorer. I'm just going to pull the pictures off that way. That pictures were the only items I couldn't get through the iCloud back up.

How do i set up a used iPad with iTunes account

Hi, my friend has recently bought a second hand iPad and has been having problems using it with her iTunes account. She has the latest version installed on her laptop but when the iPad is connected, a window opens to say it cannot be used because it requires iTunes 10.1 or later.
Is it possible to use a second hand device with an existing iTunes account and how do you get the latest version of iTunes on the iPad?
Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry that I mentioned 'daughter' rather than 'friend'.
Has she access to another computer with iTunes. If so, attach it to that briefly to see if she gets the same message. If she does not then the problem is iTunes on her own laptop. This can be resolved in two ways. If the iTunes update was recent then do a system restore on the laptop and then update iTunes again. (Be careful that such a restore has not ramifications as regards to new programmes installed in the interim.) Now try connecting again. The second option, as quoted earlier by Demo, is to forget about the system restore (on the laptop) and reinstall iTunes. The following should help - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925

Home pc shares two apple accounts. How do I back up my ipad with correct account? It always backups my husband's account and not mine.

We have one home pc that two of us share for itunes accounts. We each have our own apple id that is used when we download apps/music either through wi-fi or directly onto home pc. We now have an ipad and we are wanting to transfer data from my ipod info to my ipad. When we sync the new ipad, my husband's files/apps/music/etc. loads to the ipad instead of my data. When I set up the ipad, I entered my Apple id username/password, and when I open itunes on my computer, I log in with my username/password; however, after syncing the ipad, it is my husband's stuff that is on my ipad. What are we doing wrong?

How my wife and I do this is to have 2 separate log ins to our Mac. Each side has it's own iTunes set up and logged into out own account. So, when I know she's going to be hoarding the Mac I log into my iTunes account on my side and toggle (Upper right of screen for users) back to her side. So, anything I add to my iPad is wirelessly synced to my account.
On a Windows system I believe you should be able to do the same thing. So, I think it sounds like your logged into your system under the main user account and logging in and out of iTunes. I think in those cases it only keeps the primary users apps. Anyone else care to chime in?

Multiple ipads with icloud accounts share itunes match

Hi,
I've got some iPad / iPhones here in the family which have differend iCloud accounts.
I can't really combine these, as all the members have differend agenda's, email etc.
We always bought music on a family account. Worked just fine with syncing.
Now I've bought iTunes Match, for Apple TV it works, for the macbooks it works, but for the ipad's and iphones I can't seem to enter my family-account into the iCloud details to get it working.
How can I let the ipad/iphones work with iTunes Match, without losing the seperate agenda's, mail, etc.?

Your iCloud account is a separate account to your iTunes store account, just make sure the iTunes account ID you use for the iTunes store is entered correctly in settings > store.

No incoming mail on ipad with IMAP account

I have not been able to receive incoming mail from an IMAP account hosted by Network Solutions, and I'm not sure if the problem is on the client or server side. I am also not able to delete messages from the inbox. (I get a message saying "Unable to move message: The message could not be moved to the mailbox Trash."
I am sending and receiving emails from this account on both my iPhone and macbook without any problem. The iPad account is set-up exactly the same on the iPad as it is on the phone and macbook. The inbound port is set to 993, which is what it is automatically set to in the others even though NS says to set to 143.
I have tried deleting the account and reinstalling many times with no success. I also tried resetting the ipad to factory settings. This worked briefly and everything worked fine for a couple of test emails, and then I was back at square one.
There are a couple of things I've noticed. All my mail is in the inbox up until 9/5/13, after that there is nothing. If I search for a specific email and opt to continue the search on the server, the email is found and put in my mailbox (it is not there after deleting and reinstalling the account.) Also, I notice at the bottom of the folder bar where it tells you progress, last updated, etc. that when I am checking for mail, the status shows the downloading progress bar and the approximate number of emails I'm missing very briefly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

Home sharing not working on ipad with different account name but same apple id that was created, what to do?

PC is set up for home sharing and 2 iPads and 1 iPhone is sharing fine. 1 iPad and 1 iPhone is not home sharing. The only difference on the devices not working is that the Apple account name is [email protected] while the Apple ID is [email protected] which is also the Apple ID used in creating Home Sharing and is the account used on the devices that are working. Do they need to be the same? My wife has her own iTunes account. If they are the same how would her purchases be charged to her account? Thank you for any help.

ITunes Home Sharing for video on iPad with different account

My husband has a separate iTunes account from mine, however I run our media servers at home where I have a library of movies running through iTunes which we view via Apple TV and other devices.
He has his iPad set to - Settings/Videos/HomeSharing/His-Apple_ID
The question is - if I CHANGE THIS to - Settings/Videos/HomeSharing/MY-Apple_ID
(so he can view my iTunes library)
Does this mess up his usage/connection to his iTunes account - in any other area of the iPad?
In other words - can the Home Sharing Apple ID be different than one's personal Apple ID on an iPad for purposes of viewing?
It would actually be nice if we were allowed to keep multiple accounts to connect to for this for moving to different locations and sharing...

I was connecting on my ipad to Find my ipad with the account of my sister (somebody stole her ipad..) and her ipad was obviously offline. Then i removed her device from the list (i know itd reappear on the list if it comes back online),but can i readd it?

Question above

i didnt mean to remove it, i did it unintentionally.
If the offline device is removed do i receive emails if it comes back online?
p.s.: still no answers to how i have to put the offline device back on the list of my devices?!?

Setting up 20+ ipads with Apps on them and...

Here is what I am trying to accomplish:
Set up 20+ iPads with several (free and paid) applications, andmultiple PDF’s in the library. Theuser will then be able to download as many apps as he/she wants, with his/herown itunes account.
I was thinking of setting up all of the iPads with the same iTunes account todownload all of the base apps.. but then when the user goes to sync it tohis/her computer, it won’t work because you can only sync that iTunes accountto 5 computers, right?
The ultimate goal would be to be able to download additionalapps to a users iPad with a company iTunes account if they can show that theapp is work related.
I was also thinking of using the iPhone configurationutility.. but I can’t seem to figure out a way to do that with putting the appson there.
Can anyone give me some advice on the best way to do this?

iOS5 + iCloud might be the answer after all, if you are not looking at sync with USB cables to physical terminals.

One library with multiple devices with different accounts?

Here is the setup:
*(1) Windows XP PC with iTunes and (1) Library
*(1) iPhone and (1) iPad with iTunes Account A
*(1) iPad with iTunes Account B
*(1) iTouch with iTunes Account C
Is it possible to have one iTunes Library where we can all have our music (all we use really - no videos, etc) and can drag and drop among the different devices as we please? If so, how can this be done? If it cannot be done, what is the next best thing and how do you do it?
(All devices are sync'd manually - we just drag / drop.)
MANY thanks for your assistance.
DJP

Hmmm, thought I did that but ran into issues...Will give it a harder look.
Thank you for your reply, tt2...BTW, I've been reading these forums for awhile now and your replies in other posts have helped me so thanks for all of them, too...
