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.

    How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?
    Hi there
    My partner has a works iPad, which has her works Apps on (ones that are specifically made by her company and are NOT available in the App store).
    What I want to be able to do is to ALSO have my itunes account on there so that I can put all the apps I have purchased previously from my iPhone on it.
    This is so I can put on VLC player (thats already in my itunes account) so I can add videos to the iPad.
    How do I do this please?
    I tried it before by connecting it to my mac, but it wiped everything off the iPad completely and also deleted the data settings for using 3G.
    So I want to avoid this happening again the future as it had to be sent back to her head office to be sorted again.
    Any advise please?
    Thanks

    You can't. The iPad is desgined to be a 'one user' device and only really works with one apple ID at a time.
    The only way would be if she, at work and with her work apple id, downloaded your apps (repurchasing them of course).
    It's not meant to be a multiple user/multiple ID device.

  • Can I have two iPads with two different credit cards linked to one iTunes account?

    Can I have two iPads with two different credit cards linked to one iTunes account?

    It is still not possible to have two credit cards with your iTunes store account. I've just had a discussion with an Apple representative who suggested I give feedback to Apple about this. The more we are, Apple might listen to us in the end.
    This is the link
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
    Please feel free to use or modify what I wrote there:
    I’m surprised as are many other people who have the same issue (can see this in many forum threads) that Apple don’t give us the possibility to have at least 2 credit cards with one AppleID/account like most other vendors do (even much smaller than Apple). This certainly forces people to buy some stuff elsewhere that they otherwise would have purchased from Apple (for example books) or restrain from buying things they would have bought if they had a choice to use a second Credit Card.
    Not having this option puts me in a precarious situation since it would not be OK to buy just anything with the Credit Card that is tied to my business (and in many cases like mine the business is only one person, the VAT No being the same as my social security No).
    Sole traders need an option too.

  • Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts.  The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv.  How can I use my iphone to do the same?

    Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts.  The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv.  How can I use my iphone to do the same?

    Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

  • Two different versions of iTunes on a mac with two accounts?

    Let's say two people share one computer and person A likes what he hears about iTunes 9 and wants to down it, but person B hates it and wants to keep iTunes 8 on the computer. I know it can't be done with one account but can it be done with two accounts if there is only one computer?

    Good question. I'd say +back up your computer+ and give it a try. Put the copies of iTunes in Applications folders in each account, not in the common Applications folder at the main level of the directory.
    Some of this may depend upon how you currently have it arranged with music files and libraries. I'm assuming you have it all sorted out as to accessing music files, unless you each have your own collection.
    I don't know the full workings of itunes9 but as long as you don't share a common library (which is version-specific) or preferences files then I don't see why different versions won't work. Again, I'd make a backup in case anything funny happens, then try.

  • Invoice Posting with two accounting documents for Service PO

    Hi Gurus,
    We have created one service (GR based Invoice verification) PO for which we have assigned a costcenter which has been created for different company code(rather than what company code we have mentioned in PO).
    Now during Invoice creation out of 6 invoice entries only one Invoice has been created with two accounting documents for two different company codes, when we found this and canceled the same only basic entries has been reversed.
    I just wanted to know how this single invoice has been created with two different accounting documents for two different company codes.
    Please guide me in this regard.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Ravindra C.M

    Hi Aasif,
    Thanks for your reply, if that would have been case then each Invoice created for that PO should have two accounting documents but out of 6 invoice created only one invoice has been created with two accounting documents.
    I am completely agree with you that it has posted as inter-company transfer but why only one invoice has been created with two accounting documents.
    In addition to the above I just wanted to know if for GR-based invoice verified PO if we create a Invoice before creating service entry sheet whether two accounting documents will be created as we have mentioned different company code costcenter.
    Please guide me in this regard.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Ravindra C.M

    Use iCloud to backup the iPad. Many users don't use their iPads with iTunes at all anymore. Personally, I would never rely only on iCloud, but I would guess that millions of iOS users are now using only iCloud and not backing up with iTunes at all.

  • Backing up iPad apps purchased with two accounts?

    For a recent sync, I "transferred purchases" from my iPad to iTunes and subsequently synced it to my iMac with my personal AppleID. Before syncing, my iPad had apps purchased with two separate AppleIDs on it.
    Upon doing a restore for the iOS5 upgrade, the apps purchase on the other AppleID account don't show up on my iPad.
    Where are the apps now and how can I get them, and their data, back?!? I know I can log into the other AppleID on my iPad and redownload the lost apps from the App Store. However, I need the DATA from the apps (note taking apps and such). How do I get that data back?
    If this isn't an option, this is a major fault of Apple's account design.
    Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions~ 

    Hello J_DougBC,
    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.  I found an article that addresses Apple IDs that are different than the Primary Email Address on the account.  You will need to go to https://appleid.apple.com/ to "Make your Apple ID and email address one and the same."
    If your Apple ID and primary email address do not match, or they match but the email address is unverified, you can edit them.
    1. Sign in to My Apple ID to manage your account information.
    2. If you want to add and verify an email address that matches your Apple ID, follow the dialog box that says "Make your Apple ID and email address one and the same." This will automatically unverify that email address from any other Apple ID for which it was previously verified.
    3. If you want to change your email address to one that does not match your Apple ID, click Edit next to your Primary Email Address. If this email address is already associated with another Apple ID, you will need to sign in with that Apple ID and delete it before you can add it to your preferred Apple ID.
    Note: If you have an @me.com or @mac.com Apple ID and primary email address, you cannot edit your primary email address once it has been verified. To change your @me.com or @mac.com primary email address to another email address, contact Apple Support for assistance.
    You can find the full article here:

  • I was setting up my Airport and thought the first set up did not go through, so I set up again and I ended up with two accounts instead of one.  How can I manage to have only one account now? Thanks for the help.

    I was setting up my Airport and thought the first set up dod not go through, then I set up again and ended up with two wireless accounts.  I use it for the prointer and the iPad, and I can see both accounts in the iPad.  How do I get rid of one account?  Thanks for the help!

    me.com accounts can be used for iCloud.  See the FAQ section in:
    <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4895>
    but it may be too late if you have already created a new AppleID.
    A few years ago Apple said they were working on allowing account merging, but it never happened (maybe objections from copyright holders).

  • Email with two accounts

    It may be hard to explain but here goes. I have my email address as aol on the iPad, and I also added an email address for my wife with a separate aol email address. When I sent an email from my aol address to my wife's email address it doesn't show up in mail. Only mail for me at my email address shows up in mail. Is it because the iPad is only registered in my name only? In other words is it possible to have both accounts able to receive email under each individual address on the iPad? Both accounts are set up as IMAP on the AOL web site. The two separate accounts work good on my iMac. If possible how do I do it?
    Thanks for a reply

    You are sending an email from [email protected] to [email protected]? Of course they won't show up on the same account; they are different accounts. So, be sure you're looking in the correct place on the iPad. There should be no trouble otherwise.

  • 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?

  • Home Share with two accounts.. a little help

    Just bought my first iPad and I have an iPhone provided by my company so I have two accounts.. can I share my personal music with my company iPhone?

    You can use homesharing with different iTunes accounts.
    The device will need to be authorised or associated with the other account and all devices will need to use the same Apple ID for homesharing, regardles of which ID is used for the iTunes account.

  • Accessing shared time capsule disk with two accounts

    Hey guys,
    I have an airport time capsule (5th gen) and want to access a connected USB disk with my Mavericks macbook. This basically works fine: i can mount it using the finder (usually I do an automatic mount when starting my account, since I put the drive into the Login Items for my user), and the disk is secured with a disk password.
    However, I have a quite annoying issue when using two accounts on the same macbook, which is my standard use case as I share the macbook with my wife: Only the user that first accesses the disk can use it, the second user gets a "no access permission" error for the disk. The second user can then disconnect the drive and reconnect, but I find this very annoying, because I have to do it all the time, and I'm wondering if I'm the only user with this problem.
    Is there any way to specify access rights for the drive, such that I can access it with both accounts simultaneously? BTW, I've already tried to define specific access rights on the disk (Context Menu > Get Info > Sharing and Permissions), and I tried to change the disk security mode to "With accounts" and "With device password" - none of it made any difference.

    Only the user that first accesses the disk can use it, the second user gets a "no access permission" error for the disk. The second user can then disconnect the drive and reconnect, but I find this very annoying, because I have to do it all the time, and I'm wondering if I'm the only user with this problem.
    That is how Apple built it. No fixes.. no repairs.. it is a hassle of protected type file systems. Windows you can do all sorts of fudgery.. but the lack of protection (amongst others) is why you use a Mac.
    Is there any way to specify access rights for the drive,
    This is not a rights issues.. it is that one user at a time is allowed. Each user must logout before the next user can gain access..
    I do not know of any workaround.
    Pondini recommends using disk image for data on the TC.. since you can otherwise mess up the TM backup. See http://pondini.org/TM/TCQ3.html
    His comments don't apply to your usage of the USB drive.. but his workaround may help.
    I am wondering if you create the sparsebundle on the USB drive and allow everyone access, once mounted on the computer it might allow two user accounts access at the same time.. Sorry I have no need to try it and I cannot recall anyone attempting.. but it might present a way around the issue.. !!
