Is apps like iPhoto can only be assigned to one Apple ID in one device?

Hey all, I have a tricky question which confused me for quite a long time... hope you can help me resolve it.
I registered my Macbook Air with my own Apple ID and downloaded some apps. Everything went fine until one day, my bf used it to downloaded some other free apps using his own Apple ID... like iPhoto, iMovie etc... which made me very annoying. Since afterwards, every time there is any update on those apps, I hv to log out of my own acct, and then sign in using his. I refused to do so coz it's troublesome and also not consistent... I tried to restore it to factory setting. But unfortunatley, those apps are still under his Apple ID when I was trying to download them using mine... (It says this app has been assigned to another Apple ID, when I click "Accept" it in Apple Store).
I sincerely hope that someone could help me resolve this issue. I don't mind restore it another time, as long as the problem could be fixed. Thank you very much!

All applications at the iTunes store are associated to a specific user ID, that's the way the store works. The only thing I can think of is to call AppleCare and explain the situation to that you as the purchaser of the computer can get those Apps downloaded under your account.

    Hello Khayalh,
    You should be able to link your phone number by following the steps in the article below. From your iPhone, sign out of FaceTime and iMessage and then sign back in and it should link. Check in the Start Conversation With and I Can Be Reached at section in iMessage and FaceTime respectively.

    You can move the rental between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period. However, the movie can only be played on one device at a time. If you rent a movie on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.
    This is a confusing statement. Can really move the rental between devices or not???  

    If you originally downloaded it to a computer, yes. If you originally downloaded it to an iOS device, probably not; if you want to try anyway, use the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes.

    Hi,
    the settings are gone, i guess. But even worse, I cannot get the iPad2 to play Full HD thru the Apple digital AV adaptor using apps that support  (and advertise this), like AVPlayer HD. This definiteley used to work before one of the last iOS upgrades. (I am now at 5.1.1).

  • I have an ipad 2 and I noticed I have over 3000 emails in All Mail. I want to know how can I delete these emails. It looks like you can only do it one at a time. It will take me forever. Please help me.

    You can only delete them one at a time on the iPad. If you have an IMAP email account, go to your email in on the server using a web browser and select as many as you can at a time and delete them that way. That action will be reflected on the iPad. In IMAP - whatever you do on one device syncs across all devices. If you have POP email - start deleting one at a time.

  • My laptop hard drive crashed - when I go to sync my iPhone it says that my phone is already synced with another computer and can only be synced with one computer at a time.

    My Dell laptop hard drive crashed - when I go to sync my iPhone it says that my phone is already synced with another computer and can only be synced with one computer at a time. When I hit sync is says it will erase my phone and sync with the new computer which is blank. How do I get my phone to sync my contacts, pics, apps etc. over to my new hard drive without losing anything.

    Yes, so what's confusing... Did you not restore the backup of your data, contacts, pics, apps, music, etc. to the new hard drive after you replaced it or reformatted it or whatever you did? If so, then you can just sync your data back.
    If not, please try searching the forum. This has been addressed hundreds of times here.

  • GroupLayout can only be used with one Container at a time

    Dear all,
    I am a beginner so please don't throw rocks at me...
    I have created two frames with NetBeans. One is the main frame (extends from JPanel) and the other frame I put it to be started when pressing a button from the main frame (the second frame extends from JFrame). Both frames are created using the designer in NetBeans, so the code for creating the GUI is automatically generated by NetBeans, so both frames use the same layout (GroupLayout).
    Here is the code of the button from the main frame to start the second one:
    private void manageCustomersActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                                
            // TODO add your handling code here:
            CustomerGUI custGUI1=new CustomerGUI();//CustomerGUI is the second frame
            custGUI1.setVisible(true);
    }When I press this button from the main frame I get this runtime exception: Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: GroupLayout can only be used with one Container at a time. The second frame is not opened.
    How should I handle this?
    What I want to do: I want to have a main frame, from which I can start additional ones (the main frame must be always opened, while the additional ones can be closed after performing certain actions). I read a little about internal frames and I think this can be a solution, but I must edit the existing design...
    Thank you
    With respect,
    Don

    There are those that maintain that JFrame should never be extended. I am not convinced, but most cases where a JFrame is extended would be better coded as simply configuring the JFrame within the main(). GUI builders such as found in NetBeans seem to extend JFrame as a matter of course.I too am not rigorous or religious about this either, but try to adhere to this as a matter of practicality and convenience, I find that if I don't extend a JComponent but rather use composition rather than inheritance, it's much easier to use objects of my class when programming in Eclipse. For instance in Eclipse (and in most IDEs), if I type my object name and then a period, it will show all of the method's available for me to use on this object. If I subclass JPanel or JFrame, I'll see a gazillion methods most I don't want to see, and thus most are clutter. On the other hand if I use composition, I'll only see a small number of methods and these will be only the methods that I want to see and need to use.

    If you see Devices in the big list on the left-hand side of iTunes, it should show the name of your iPhone right below it. You can right-click (or hold ctrl and left click) on the name of the iPhone there, and choose "transfer purchases from iPhone".
    If you're on iTunes 11, you won't see the big list of the left until you go to the View menu at the very top (where you see iTunes/File/Edit/View/etc) and choose Show Sidebar. Then do the same thing: right-click or ctrl and left-click on the iPhone's name below Devices and "transfer purchases from iPhone".
    It'll ask you to authorize the computer for your Apple ID if you haven't yet; to do that, you just type your Apple ID and password in when it asks. If it says you are not authorized but doesn't automatically give you an option to do so, then you can go to the Store menu at the very top and choose "authorize this computer".

    You can only import photos from the camera roll into the computer. Is that the album that you are seeing?
    Any albums that you create on the device itself (the iPad that is) cannot be transferred to your computer. iPad created albums do not contain copies of your photos but merely pointers to those photos so they do not actually exist in those albums.

  • Messages in multi-message format can only be sent to one Adapter Engine

    Hi,
    Using XI 7.0 SPS 12 I have a scenario Single Flat File->XI->Multiple Messages to ECC.
    Due to an annoying limitation/bug in ECC we have to send workorders in to be processed as individual transactions.  This means generating seperate calls to ECC from PI.
    I've adjusted my message map (No BPM) to split the source messages out, but when it calls the XI adapter to send them to ECC I get the following:

    I am generating multiple structures under
    messages/message1/xx_my_structure_repeated_at_this_level
    which gives the correct amount of payloads in moni.
    I believe this error is because the http/idoc adapters dont go through the AE and it is the AE that splits the multiple messages into individual calls.  Is there a clean workaround which doesnt involve BPM or intermediate writing to disk etc?
    Thanks
    James.
    Points awarded where appropriate.

    Perfectly correct
    <i>Is there a clean workaround which doesnt involve BPM or intermediate writing to disk etc?</i>
    May be writin a module.
    Otherwise to avoid other development time, go for BPM.
