Multiple devices on iTunes account how do I use the iCloud without us getting each others texts
I have 2 iPhones one is mine one is my boyfriends when I downloaded the software he was receiving my texts on his phone even though I chose to only connect his phone through my computer both phones and my iPad are on the Samuel iTunes account I deleted the account from the iCloud to stop it but how do I keep the cloud and stop it from getting our texts on both phones?????
You can keep everyone on your iTunes account all you have to do is have everyone create there own iCloud account. Me, my wife, and my son all have our own iCloud for our own use. I have my 3 devices linked to mine, my son has 2 linked to his and my wife has 2 also. For some reason by default the iDevice will ask you to use your iTunes account but you don't have to. You can create it right from the device itself if you want a @me account which is the way to go IMO. you can also go to iCloud.com and create it there too. We have a total of 8 devices linked to one iTunes account for purchases and everything works like a champ. Hope this helps.

Why not use your previous iTunes account (Apple ID)? Explain a little more, please.

I am trying to retrieve music that I had from an iPad to my iTunes account. I'm using the same computer for synching my iPhone. I'm logged into my iPad account, but can't retrieve music. It only recognizes my iPhone. Does anyone know how I can get my music? I know longer own the iPad so I don't have access to it, but I don't think that should be a problem.
So you had music on the iPad that is not in iTunes and you no longer have the iPad. Is that what you are saying? If that is what you are saying, iTunes won't "recognize" anything that was on the iPad, that was not purchased from iTunes. If the music was purchased from iTunes, you should probably be able to download it again for free as long as you are using the same Apple ID that you bought it with. Did you try downloading the music again?
Am I understanding what it is that you want to do? If I am understanding you correctly, you will find this to be useful.

I admit that I'm a little confused by your remark about being logged into your iPad account. You should be logged into your iTunes account. -
i have updated my iphone 5s to iOS8 but it has my old icloud account, how can i change the icloud email address as i can not get passed this page??
I do not know the log in details and no longer have that icloud email address !!
please help :-(That's Activation Lock. You will need to remember the Apple ID and password you used to set up the phone.
If you can't remember them, you can go to iforgot.apple.com to try to recover the information.
If you are the original owner of the phone & have proof of purchase, you can try calling Apple to see if they can assist also.

lost my contacts on my phone... how do i use the icloud to restore my contacts on my phone
if they are still stored in iCloud, turn contacts off under settings>iCloud, then turn the back on and elect the merge option. if that doesn't work you may have to remove the account from the device, and sign back in

How do I unsync two I phones from receiving each others text messages?
How do I unsync two I phones from receiving each others text messages?
To fix this you have two choices:
On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID (you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores); or
On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at". -

How can I use the gps without internet in my Ipad3 - 4G
How can I use the gps without internet in my Ipad3 - 4G. Do I need to download any additional app than the one that already came with it?
The Maps app included in iOS, at least as of the current version, requires an Internet connection, so you'll need to get an app that allows you to download maps to be kept on the iPad. MotionX GPS Drive is one such app, but there are others available.

Maybe he's referring to renaming another iTunes Store account after making the email address null and available to be used. Otherwise, I agree with you that it is pointless.

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. -
hi
This is all new to me...As a parent,I have my iphone with my account for apple with my email as the main contact address...here's the problem.
My two teenagers ALWAYS get or at least can read from their phones/ipads ALL my texts i send/receive and vice versa from my friends.
Since they are just 16- they share my account on Itunes/apple etc... QUESTION! Is there a way that I can BLOCK their iphones/ipads from getting my personal messages???
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank You!!If you use the same Apple ID for iMessage you'll get each other's text messages. You can still share the same ID for iTunes, but you should use separate IDs for iMessage. To change the ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID. (You should do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime to avoid getting each other's FaceTime calls.)

After installing IOS6 on my iphone 4 and my daughters iphone 4s we have this wonderful connection that we would like to break. We are now seeing/receiving each others text messages. I love my daughter but I don't really want to get all of her text messages from her friends and I don't really want to read every response she sends. Additionally, she can also see my text messages and there are times I really don't need for her to know everything that I am doing.
So It is time to cut the cord we need our own seperate texting. I am not sure what we did to have this happen but how do we undo it?Get your Apple ID sort out.
Only use the same Apple ID in Settings > iTunes & App Stores to share purchases, no where else.
Here some tips, it was written for IOS 5 but it's still valid for iOS 6.
