Managing multiple devices on one account

Where can I get info about managing my children's devices under my account?  My daughter has an iPad mini and my son has an iPod.  They are currently sincing together...when my daughter gets a message, it is also going to my son's iPod.  How can I get them to be separate, but managed under my iTunes account?

I think this is a good starting point:

If it doesn't answer all your questions (especially the part about "managed under my iTunes account), I suggest contacting Apple ID Support:

    How do I link multiple devices to one master account for purchases with multiple usernames

    Hello,
    This is a great tutorial using a couple of free DW
    extensions.
    Check out the "Finished Gallery" example.
    You can easily change the settings so the images all appear
    in the same
    place.

  • What is the best way to manage multiple devices with one iMac - different users with seperate itunes accounts or one mac user with different itune logons and libraries?

    Hello
    I have just purchased an imac which I am very happy with.  In our household we also have two iphones (one mine and one husbands) and one ipod (my sons). We all have individual itunes accounts set up on our previous computer (not a mac). We have sepereate apps and music, although there may be the odd occasion where we would like to share a song (if this is possible) across devices.
    I am just wondering the best way to manage these devices using the new imac.  Should I create individual accounts to logon to the imac, then from within these launch our own itunes accounts and sync our devices with these.  Or should I be using one version of itunes, logging on to this with our different itunes usernames and storing things in libraries.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks

    I am presuming that we cannot share downloaded apps and music between accounts because of the copyright issue,
    Though I'm no copyright lawyer, as long as it's within a household, you can share content among users. Such sharing is, absent specific language preventing it not present in the iTunes Store terms of use, generally considered to be "personal use". So you can share apps and music amongst your users on your computer and with their devices. You just can't give any of that content to friends or relatives who don't live with you.
    What I am not clear on, it making sure that this appears in each itunes account - is it easy to find the file storage folders that match the itunes accounts and what would these be?
    The iTunes library and files are by default in a user's Home/Music folder. But you don't have to find the folder; in fact putting a file into the folder yourself won't add the file to iTunes. Just drag the file into the iTunes window. iTunes will copy it to the correct location.
    Regards.

  • Transfering iTunes from old PC and Managing Multiple Devices in 1 Account

    Hi,
    I have 3 devices (iPhone 4, iPod Touch and iPod Nano).  I want to set up iTunes so that I can manage the content for all 3 devices under a single account, but keep the content separate, possibly using Libraries, but I'm not sure what other options are available.  The kids refuse to share their music.    
    My 1st question:  What are my options for managing content for 3 devices on a single iTunes account? 
    My 2nd question:  The Touch and Nano were originally set up on iTunes using an old PC, which has since crashed.  I'm trying to find a way to recover the data from the defunct PC, but the kids want back into iTunes.  How do I migrate the content from the 2 old iTunes accounts to the new account, without access to the defunct PC?
    FYI, there's no music on the iPhone and my OS is Windows 7 64bit.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Best regards,
    Dave

    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks.

  • Is there a way to customize with multiple devices on one account?

    I have one Apple ID account but have three iPhones and two Mac computers.
    The problem is that the three iPhones synced to the account and items like contacts are all synced together, so all three phones contacts combined on all three devices.

  • HT5622 how to disconnect a device from your apple account (multiple devices in one account)

    I lost my ipod, how do you disconnect it from your apple account?

    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID
    lost/stolen                                      
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • Can I have multiple devices on one iCloud account

    can I have multiple devices on one iCloud account? Like a iPad and Mac Book Pro
    If so how can I do this?

    Sure. That is what iCloud is meant for, so you can keep your devices synced.
    When you set up iCloud on the devices, use the same Apple ID on all devices, then the iCloud account will be the same.
