Me and my wife share itunes acct for iour iphones and ipads how do we stop geting each others e-mails on our own devices

me and my wife have iphones and ipads but we seam to get each others e-mails and would like to keep them seperate how do we do that when shareing one itunes acct

According the this: http://www.apple.com/mobileme/transition.html, "After moving to iCloud, family member accounts are no longer linked to the master account."  You can share an iCloud calendar (see http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2690), but I don't think you will be able to share iCloud contacts unless you are signed into the same iCloud account on both phones.

  • I have an itunes acct with my iphone and my ipad and my daughters ipod - the account recognises all three as mine - can I open a separate itunes for my daughter and change the ipod to that - and still use my pc forall  updates forbo th accounts ?

    I have an itunes acct - with my iphone and ipad linked.  Also my daughter has an ipod -so I orignally linked it to my acct and it identified it as MY ipod.
    I now want to open a separate acct for my daughter - can this be done on the same PC/laptop and then change her ipod over to her acct ?

    Sure.

  • I started with one itunes account for my iphone and ipad, and now have a second ipad linked to the same itunes.  Can I set up a new itunes account for one ipad without losing what has already been downloaded on it?

    I started with one itunes account for my iphone and ipad, and now have a second ipad linked to the same itunes.  Can I set up a new itunes account for one ipad without losing what has already been downloaded on it?  I want to stop my husbands downloads appearing on my ipad, and vice versa.

    A much simpler solution would be to go into Settings > Store and turn off Automatic Downloads

  • HT204053 My wife and I each have an apple computer and an iPhone.  Setting them up with the iCloud put us on the same account.  I take a lot of photos on job sites and she takes her own photos we have to scan though each others photos to find our own.  Ho

    My wife and I each have an apple computer and an iPhone.  Setting them up with the iCloud put us on the same account.  I take a lot of photos on job sites and she takes her own photos we have to scan though each others photos to find our own.  How do I separate the accounts without one of us losing our own stuff?

    Decide which device will be changing accounts.  On that device, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll that you want to keep on the device, save them to the camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. 
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The device(s) that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iDevice.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, to delete any data that you don't want in each account (such as deleting your wife's data from your account, and vice versa) you will have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete it.

  • HT4993 Would it be possible to create a separate itunes account for my iphone and ipod on the same computer?

    im trying to set up my iphone and dont want stuff from my ipod..... is iy possible to make another itunes account just for my iphone and keep it on the same computer? please help thanks

    You can use one iTunes account as it sees each device separetly. I have my iPod, iPad, and iPhone all on one iTunes account without any problems.

  • We have 2 iphones 4 and one ipod touch and they all use the same apple address for purchases.  How do we stop getting each others texts?

    We are recieveing each others texts, it has only happened since we upgrated to iOS6.  We only get each others iMessages.

    You have two issues: 1. iPad is designed for single person use, not multiple users like a computer is, 2. Everyone trying to use this "single person" device uses the same Apple ID. As far as iMessage is concerned, this is the same person...how would it know differently?
    There is no solution to fix this. Even if everyone got their own Apple ID's, you're still trying to use a device, designed to be used by a single user, with multiple users. It simple is not gonna work, and if you manage to get it to work, it won't work very well.

  • We share an apple id how can we stop getting each others contacts

    please help

    This is caused by multiple people sharing the same iCloud account..  When you do this any data you sync with the shared iCloud account such as contacts is merged and will appear on all devices sharing the account.  To fix this you both need to have separate iCloud accounts (you can continue to share the same Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and app stores). 
    Begin by deciding which deivce will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the one that will be changing accounts, if there are any photos in photo stream that are not in the camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. 
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this device, not from iCloud.  The device that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On [iDevice].  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting the other person's contacts from your account, and vice versa).
    You should also avoid using the same Apple ID for iMessage and FaceTime (or you're likely to get each other's text messages and FaceTime calls).  If you're currently sharing an ID for these services, on one of the devices go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID (such as your separate iCloud ID).  For FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

  • ITunes stopped working and now all of my apps for my iPhone and half of my music is gone. How do I get it all back?

    I've recently upgraded to an iPhone 5, I had just restored my old iPhone 4 to its original settings while listening to my music. When that was finished I plugged my new phone in and I had an error message pop up saying "iTunes has stopped working" and had to close it. When I reopened iTunes all of my apps for my phone were gone along with half of my music library. The only music I have left are the albums I have downloaded the rest is gone. I closed and reopened iTunes several times and got the same message each time.
    I have music and apps on the phone which will not transfer back to iTunes. All iTunes does is ask if I wan't to delete the music on my phone and sync with the library........ silly question really as half of the music in the library is gone!
    I have been using iTunes for many years now and this is the first time I have seen an error such as this. Can anyone tell me how to restore my library to the same as it was? I have fixed the "iTunes has stopped working" issue and would like my music and apps back.

  • I am on a new computer and cannot access my itunes account for my iphone 3gs

    How can I update my iPhone to a new computer?

    On iTunes, click Store and Log in using your Apple ID. Also select Authorize This Computer.

  • HT201269 Could I make a new iTunes account for my iPhone and transfer the music and tv episodes from the cloud of my old account to my phone?

    I want to make a new iTunes account, but I don't want to loose all of my previous purchases from my old account. Could I create a new account from y iPhone? And with that new account, could I use the icloud from the old account to sync my previous purchases?

    Purchases are forever tied to the ID used to purchase them. If you create a new iTunes account, you can still get your old purchases on your phone, but you'd have to sign out of the iTunes/App store with your new ID, then sign in with your old ID, then download them. Also, apps can only be updated using the ID used to originally obtain them. So, you'd have to sign out/sign in to update your apps that were obtained with the old ID.

  • HT1665 has anyone else having trouble with their iPad mini and iPhone usb cords? we have 3 mini's in the house and 1 iPhone we don't let the kids plug the iPads in and my wife takes great care charging her iPhone. and still all the usb cords break at the

    ok this is getting a little ridiculous we have 3 ipad mini's and 1 iphone in our household and everyone of the usb cords breaks at the plug that goes into the devices. The latest is my wifes iphone cord and the phone is only 3 weeks old. what gives apple? Never had a problem with the older style cords. Bad thing is they charge a small fortune fo these cords.

    I have three non-working cords as well.  The cable is so flimsy at the connector.  If enough people complain then maybe Apple will try creating a better product!  They should issue some credit or send customers a new cord.

  • My wife and I share Itunes acct we each have our own iphone and wish to have seperate acct.s how do we set it up

    We share Itunes acct. We wish to have single acct.s for each iphone plz help

    There is no way to split or merge Apple ID's.
    That being said, it is possible to have content from multiple ID's on a single device.
    Always use seperate ID's for iMessage unless you want to get each others iMessages.
    You can use the same Apple ID for iCloud which will allow for downloading automatically the content wirelessly on the device.  This may be annoying though if you turn on automatic syncing of apps.
    The best solution is to use a shared library in iTunes and sync the content you desire from the computer.  Then use a single but seperate Apple ID on each device.

  • If you have an itunes acct that was not set up to share and the lap top it was on is no longer working, is there a way to open up the old itunes acct to get music and photos?  This was before icloud was available, can you reset your password?

    If you have an itunes acct that was not set up to share and the lap top it was on is no longer working, is there a way to open up the old itunes acct to get music and photos off of it?  This was before Icloud was available.  Can you reset your itunes password somehow?

    iTunes and the iTunes Store won't have anything to do with your photos. Those would be stored only on your laptop unless you made a backup of some sort. If you didn't, and the hard drive in your laptop has failed, then your photos are gone unless you wish to pay a disk recovery service a lot of money to try and get them back.
    As to your music, if you purchased it from the iTunes Store you can probably re-download it. Go to the iTunes Store, log into your account, and click the Purchases link under the Quick Links. From there you should be able to re-download some or all of your purchased content. Note that not all content has been licensed for re-downloading in all countries at this time. You can see what content you can download here:

    You can also re-download content using an iOS device.

  • I have a new iTunes acct for my 10year old . she was playing one of the games and did not know it was charging my Cc and grandmas CC for her game. Is there a way to have these amt adj off the cards. I have made sure my CC info is not in the system now

    My 10 year old daughter downloaded a free game on her i Pod touch. When playing the game she did not know she was ordering apps
    is there a way to have my cc and her grandma cc refunded these charges. I thought my acct was set up to not keep our CC # on file.
    Please help.

    There are no refunds.
    You can set restirctions so that it does not allow in app purchases.
    You can try asking itunes support for an exception and see how it goes.
    Click "Support" at the top of this page, then click the link under "Contact Us"
