Multiple ipads on one account

I need to manage several iPads. Can I use one account for all in terms of downloading apps?

Hi Guy3a,
Legally, if different users are using your group of iPads you will need to use multiple Apple IDs to download apps, or sign up for Apple's Volume Purchase Plan (VPP). For multiple users like in schools or businesses you need to use VPP to purchase multiple licenses (can't share one Apple ID for 10 devices used by 10 students). http://www.apple.com/business/vpp/
APP STORE PRODUCT USAGE RULES
( i )If you are an individual acting in your personal capacity, you may download and sync an App Store Product for personal, noncommercial use on any iOS Device you own or control.
( ii ) If you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, you may download and sync an App Store Product for use by either (a) a single individual on one or more iOS Devices used by that individual that you own or control or (b) multiple individuals, on a single shared iOS Device you own or control. For example, a single employee may use an App Store Product on both the employee's iPhone and iPad, or multiple students may serially use an App Store Product on a single iPad located at a resource center or library. For the sake of clarity, each iOS Device used serially by multiple users requires a separate license.
If you are an educational institution or business you will want to enroll in Apple's Volume Purchase Program (VPP) which allows a single Apple ID to purchase multiple licenses of an app. Most developers will offer a 50% discount on their app when 20 or more VPP licenses are purchased in a single transaction.
There is a free OS X program called Apple Configurator that you can use to distribute the VPP codes to your fleet of iPads. Apple Configurator uses a single Apple ID to install apps on your iPads. Configurator will also allow you to install free apps on multiple iPads using a single enterprise Apple ID. See http://help.apple.com/configurator/mac/1.0/ for details.
Hope this answers your question!

  • Multiple iPad on one account with iCloud

    I would like to update some business iPad (all over the US) from our office (in CA). Is there a way to sync multiple iPads to one iCloud account? However, I would only like to update certain apps (Keynote, movies and some documents). Is there a way to push data to their devices without them pushing anything back to me.
    Thanks!

    iPods are sync'd to iTunes libraries (what you see on your computer), not iTunes accounts (which are used to purchase items).

    No. Anything purchased is always purchased by that same account and cannot be changed.
    He can copy these items to his computer and use them in his iTunes library.
    If you authorize his cmputer for your iTunes acoount (iTunes menu Store > Authorize computer)  when he plugs in his iPod, select it in iTunes and select File > Transfer purchases.

  • Can you have multiple users for one account?

    Can you have multiple users for one account? if so how do you set it up.
    We are using it for our department and it would be great to see who created what form instead of it being all one name.

    Each person should have their own account. You can easily share the forms with other people in your department. You will be able to see who the author of the form is.

  • Limited number of IPADs on one account ???

    We are implementing IPADs to all of our field personel for Business use. Unfortunately we can not have more than Five IPADs on one account. I have about three working and 17 more unable to download applications because they are all on the same company Credit Card. Four Days on the Phone with Apple/Itunes and no one can figure it out. I thought these things were suppoesed to be business friendly. Someone HELP!!

    ...Anyone from ITUNES support?...Anyone?
    This is a user-to-user forum. Apple employees do not officially post here. You need to contact Apple directly.
    Since you say you've already called on the phone, I presume that you were talking with someone that was only familiar with "consumer" type issues. If you're close to an Apple Store, perhaps you can make an appointment. The Genius Bar might at least be able to get you in contact with a business specialist or something. Or possibly contacting either [Apple Professional Services|http://www.apple.com/services/consulting> or some other [Apple Consultant|http://consultants.apple.com>. I don't know how much those services or consultants support iPads, but they are more business oriented than the normal phone support.

  • Trouble loading multiple iPads with one iTunes account

    I am trying to load the same exact information from ONE iTunes account to multiple iPads (4-6). I was able to sync the app and information I needed to ONE but when I try plugging any of the other iPads into my computer NOTHING happens. The computer doesn't recognize that I have plugged in the iPad nor does the iPad recognize it is plugged into the computer. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

    I am trying to use the same Apple ID for all of them. One has been synced and I am logged into the same Apple ID but the other 2 have been reset so they are like "new" iPads but my computer won't detect them.

    Not a problem since each device is distinguished by a unique name and has its own sync settings for apps, music, photos, etc.

    If a classroom has multiple ipads synced to 1 account (say 20) does that mean they only need to purchase 1 copy of a IBA textbook to have it on all 20 ipads?

  • How to set multiple senders for one account

    Hi all,
    I have a BIS account with my provider and a paid gmail account which collect for me mails from different address. Is it possible to set multiple senders for this account, thus it seems that I'm replying from one of these address and not only from my google address? In fact, it's important for me also that all mails come out from the same SMTP server (google).
    Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Pierluigi

    For the BlackBerry to "send using" a specific email account, it must be set up on your BIS account as an email account, otherwise, you can send from that account.
    You can do that, and then block ALL incoming emails from those accounts, and allow only incoming mail from your one Gmail account, if you desire.
