Is your Nickname and Apple Id different?

My 11 year old has a new Touch.  I set his restrictions on age appropriate items he can download in game center.  I would like him to be able to download without me having to always log in for him.   I am new to Apple products and originally set it up with his dad's email address.  He can log into the game center with the nickname and password he set up but when he tries to download a game.. it says "You are not a member of the administrator group." This is driving us crazy.  The only way I can get around this is by logging in with my husband's email and password,   How can I change this?  Will he have to have an email address?

I usually copy paste my passwords from a list and apparently Apple isn't allowing that anymore. It doesn't say that specifically but I just tested that out. I also tested the password on iTunes, Apple Forum(here), etc. and it worked when I typed it in.
I also think I may have used an old password as well.
I was curious when error 500 came up stating The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.  Then there are several lines under Exception and root cause ending in java: then a number. Then a note that The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/6.0.16
Not sure what all that means.

  • I have WordMac 2011. Why isn't it letting me put it into a space? (Where you swipe your fingers and enter different windows)

    All my friends have WordMac 2011, just like me. Why can they put Word, Powerpoint, ect. into spaces (when you swipe your fingers and you enter different windows) and I can't?

  • I have home sharing turned on both my itunes on my computer and apple tv, but the icon to use apple on my computer will not work.

    I have turned home share on both my apple tv and itunes but i still can't get the apple tv icon to appear on my computer.

    Hello chandlos23,
    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.  I found some information that might help with transferring information between your computer and Apple TV.  I found an article about Home Sharing that talks about what Home Sharing does and how to set it up:
    You can use Home Sharing in iTunes 10.5 or later and on Apple TV to share the iTunes library and photos of any computer on your home network.
    You can find the full article here:
    Setting up Home Sharing for Apple TV (2nd generation and 3rd generation)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4352
    If you are trying to setup Airplay from your computer, I also found some articles on how to set that up.  AirPlay Mirroring lets you send what’s on your Mac screen to an HDTV wirelessly with Apple TV.  If you are running Mountain Lion on a Mac compatible with Airplay Mirroring, you can share your whole screen using these steps:
    About AirPlay Mirroring in OS X Mountain Lion
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404
    If you are not running Mountain Lion, you can still use Airplay with iTunes and iOS devices following the steps in this article:

  • Have one apple id but 2 profiles/ nicknames in games centre but can't log out of one nickname and into another.

    So family has apple id- we all use it. In the past I have set up two different profiles for Games Centre so that my son can play his ipad. He asked me what his nickname is, which we have. But when you enter the games centre it asked for your apple id and password but then gives my profile on his ipad and not his. I can not figure out a way to switch it to his profile. I know one exists because I can see that I am friends with him. He has an ipad mini- up to date software etc.

    Hi lulurats,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    It is possible to have one Apple ID that everyone uses for iTunes Store purchases, etc.
    But each member of the family would have to have their own Apple ID for Gamecenter, iCloud, etc.
    I'm including some information below for GameCenter in particular and Apple ID in general:
    Using Game Center
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4314
    You can change the account you are signed into by:
    iOS: Tap Settings > Game Center.
    OS X: Click the Me tab in the Game Center app and click on your Account.
    Note: Please note each Apple ID has its own associated scores, achievements, and friends.
    Game Center settings - iPad User Guide
    http://help.apple.com/ipad/7/#/iPad9a13d039
    Game Center settings
    Go to Settings > Game Center, where you can:
    Sign out (tap your Apple ID)
    Allow invites
    Let nearby players find you
    Edit your Game Center profile (tap your nickname)
    Get friend recommendations from Contacts or Facebook
    Specify which notifications you want for Game Center. Go to Settings > Notifications > Game Center. If Game Center doesn’t appear, turn on Notifications.
    Change restrictions for Game Center. Go to Settings > General > Restrictions.

    Not with your current user id.
    Far too much uneccesary information in your post, which only confuses things, a vast amount!
    Let's start with iTunes.
    Have you updated iTunes to 11.1.5, because the previous version did appear to have an issue about seeing iPods?
    With iTunes 11.1.5 installed, look in Edit/Preferences/Devices, (or use the ALT key, followed by the E key and then the F key) and make sure that the box named Prevent iPods, iPhones and iPads from syncing automatically does not have a tick in the box.
    Once you have doen those two things, check to see if the iPod is seen by iTunes.

    By the way, what does IOS mean? (I thought IO stood for operating system, but am flummoxed by the S on the end.
    Really?
    OS stands for Operating System. (In computer speak, IO means Input/Output.)
    iOS originally stood for iPhone Operating System, but it now refers to the iPod Touch and iPhone. The iPod Classic, which you have listed in your profile as your iPod, does not use iOS.
    I assume that you have been listening to the Podcast in your iTunes on the computer as you cannot transfer it to your iPod. It's what I'd do.

  • Can u use more than one apple account on your device and itunes

    Can u use more than one apple account on your device and itunes

    Yes, but you have to logout of one, and login to the other.
    If it is an iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch and you buy apps on different accounts, when it comes time to update an app, you have to specify the password for the account used to acquirer the app. You change an iOS account via Settings -> Store -> Apple ID (tap on it), and start by logging out and then you can enter the other Id
    So it is possible, but it can also be a pain.

  • HT5622 My wife and I have different Apple ID's and passwords but I want to share the music library which is on iCloud under my Apple ID.  How do I set her up to share the music library that exists in iCloud?

    My wife and I have different Apple ID's and passwords but I want to share our music library which is on iCloud under my Apple ID.  How do I set her up to share the music library that resides on the iCloud under my Apple ID?

    You would need to go to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap her ID, sign out, then sign back in with your ID.  However, if she has turned on automatic downloads, download previous purchases or signed into an iTunes Match account using her current ID, she would have to wait 90 days from when she first did this to change to another ID.  She can, of course, sync your music to her device using iTunes without changing her ID association.

  • HT1040 I have previously submitted a book for printing three different times and Apple has told me it's been unreadable. I have previously previewed it before sending and it was perfect. I have followed all other directions. Help.

    I have previously submitted a book for printing three different times and Apple has told me each time it's unreadable. I have previously previewed it each time before sending and it was perfect. I have followed all other directions - updated software, all other applications off etc. What am I doing wrong?

    Boot into Safemode and Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.
    If it is good order while in safe mode

  • HT201269 Can I sync my music from two different devices if I have two different e mail addresses and apple ids? If so how?

    Can I sync or merge my music from two different devices if I have two different e mail addresses and apple ids? If so how?

    Yes, if you choose the Erase and Sync option (or restore your iPod) you will be allowed to sync your iPod with the new computer.
    If you would like to save the content that's currently on your iPod, see this older thread from another forum member Zevoneer discussing the different ways to copy the content on an iPod back to your PC.

    I have an i-pad and have just got an i-phone but want 2 use a different I cloud? I've set up new email account and apple ID, but I can't change the I-cloud settings, can u help PLS??

    The procedure is Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at>Add another email address. The email address has to be a valid working email address, obviously. Apple should verify the email address and you have to go to the inbox of that email account, read the verification email from Apple and follow the inductions in the email in order to complete the verification. Then you go back to the settings, uncheck your email address and check the new email address to be used as the contact email address.

  • I was wondering if you could have one desktop audio playing through your speakers and the other one playing through your apple tv at the same time?

    i was wondering if you could have one desktop audio playing through your speakers and the other one playing through your apple tv at the same time?

    Problem here is you admit you cannot afford the service.
    And you want to blame Verizon for losing a job because you have no cell phone.
    If your job depends on that phone I would pay it on time every time if you need a job to pay your bill.
    No other service is going to treat you any different. And if you cannot afford Verizon's monthly invoice how are you going to afford new devices, activation fees, possible security deposits on any other cellular carrier? You can't.
    Also if you made an arraignment to pay and then decide you cannot do so, why should Verizon extend you service or credit, or why is it you want to use the service and data and not pay for it as agreed.
    Get a prepay phone. Its evident the cost is too high for you to afford on post pay.
    Good Luck
