Mum and I used to share same Apple ID. Now she has her own. But when i turn on iCloud on my phone. All her address book linked to mine. What should I do?

I am so sorry, i am very new to this community. Mum and I used to share apple id. Also I created the iCloud with my apple id. Then i created my mum a new apple ID for her. However, her addressbook and phonebook still synced with my phone through iCloud. What should I do?

Welcome to the Apple community.
If you have correctly set up a separate iCloud for your mother, then your contacts should not be syncing with your mothers. Are you absolutely sure that they are syncing and not just the same contacts.

I have a iphone4s and an ipod 4th gen, they both share same itunes acc, the ipod has its own email but when people try to FT it also rings on my phone, how do i stop it ringing both devices

That's because you're using the same Apple ID on both devices. On your phone: Settings>FaceTime>You Can Be Reached at>Remove your Apple ID.

I can't remember my security question for my Apple ID. But when I press "send reset request to email" my email won't recieve it. What should I do?

Wait a few hours and check the spam filter. If you still don't get it, ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

That usually means that y ohave to add a valid payment to your account. Unless you initially set up the account withoeur a credit card

You need a valid payment method even for free stuff

Where are you watching these shows? On an iOS device? If you are, look in the Videos app on the device, not in the iTunes app.

HT5621 How do I keep one Apple ID on iPhone and iPad and change Apple ID on my daughters iPod and iPad that currently share same apple id

How do I change Apple ID on iPod 5 and iPad mini while keeping the same ID on iPad and iPhone. I only want to change ID on 2 devices. Currently they share same ID. Thanks

You can start a new Apple ID, just understand all purchases made under an Apple ID are forever associated with that ID and can't be switched to a new one.
The requirements of an Apple ID is that it be from a valid email account.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2204
Since many apps are free, they can be repurchased free with a new Apple ID.
If you purchased valuable apps under your ID, get a new one for your daughter. Or visa versa.
You can continue to keep them in one computer library which will allow you to sync them to all devices.
Updates will require the Apple ID and password from the purchasing Apple ID.

Can I do home sharing with my wife's computer/iPad even if I don't have the same Apple ID as she has?

We have tons of cachets and air TV and I would like to get them all connected. All catchets are set up using either my wife's or my Apple ID. Yet or home sharing it says that one has to log in with the same Apple ID. Hence, can I log in with my device (registred with my Apple ID) using my wife's Apple ID without messing up my Apple ID credentials?

Make sure you changed the ID that you are using for iMessage. Open the Messages app and go to Messages>Preferences>Accounts, select your iMessage account on the left, then check the Apple ID to the right. If it's your Mom's, sign out, then sign back in with your ID.
You can only add a phone number if you are using the same Apple ID for iMessage on an iPhone. If you are, the phone number should automatically be added when you sign into the ID.

We have two computers, one solely to be used by my wife. Until now she has used my appleid to buy stuff from the Apple Store but has now bought her own iPad. we are finding it very difficult to remove me from her computer.

Until recently our household comprised two computers but only one iPad (mine) and we could buy from the store on either computer because both computers identified with my apple ID. My wife has now bought her own iPad and created her own apple ID and wants to be able to purchase apps etc on her own accout from iTunes in her computer. We are finding it impossible to take my apple ID off her computer to enable her to buy on her own account because we keep getting a message that only my ID isaccepted. HELP would be apprecaited. Thank you

Mr. Wiclee - thanks for the link.
When I said I had not "installed" iTunes on my iPad, I suppose I meant I have not yet signed in to iTunes, ever. I suppose when I sign in to iTunes the first time on my new iPad, I will be required to create a new iTunes account? Then refer to such new iTunes account when I launch iTunes for the first time on my PC as myself? Or will I still need to use Method Three in your link?
The crucial thing is this - when I turn on iTunes on the PC for the first time with me as User, I do NOT want it to connect to my wife's iTunes account. On my PC, I would want iTunes to ask me who I am, so I can then sign in with my new iTunes account that I had just created on my iPad. How can I be sure to accomplish this goal?
In my PC, if I look at Documents and Settings and compare the two folders for we two different users, one for me and one for my wife, I can see that my wife's has Application Data and Local Settings for her various Apple programs. However, so do I in my User even though I have not yet installed any Apple programs on my side. I am concerned that when I finall launch iTunes when I am user, it will open up in my wife's iTunes account, which I truly want to avoid.
Thanks. Please advise.

Made a bad change to login options under user preferences, changed from "List of users" to "Name and password". I shut the computer down, now I can't login in when I turn the computer back on. What can I do to fix this problem?

Have Migrated data from IMAC to Macbook twice. Because I had too many admin ids under user and accounts preferences, I was trying not to delete the extras but that they wouldn't all show at login time. Under Login Options, I clicked out "List of Users" and clicked in "Name and password". Can't remember whether I did anything else. I shut down the computer and turned it back on to test the change. I get a dark grey screen with all my admin ids in circled pictures plus one for guest, but doesn't let me do anything with any of the admin ids. I clicked on any one and nothing happens. IF i click on the guest circle, it gives me a message that the computer will restart with only Safari allowed.
Since I haven't been able to connect my macbook to my IMac so I can login to the macbook through the Imac, I can't get to my macbook. There must be a way to fix this problem. I expected to see places to enter name and password but nothing is allowed to enter. Please help!

First thing I would do would be to boot in to Lion Recovery (Command+R on boot) and run Disk Utility, both disk and permissions repair.

I turned off my ipod and when i turned it on the next day all the app icons were clear/gray

i turned off my ipod and when i turned it on the next day all the app icons were clear/gray what should i do?

Perform a hard reset. To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherise if that doesn't work, try restoring your iPod Touch from a backup via iTunes. See this article for help on restoring your iPod from a backup.

Help! My ex boyfriend and I used to share apple ids. I have since created my own however my email is still linked to his I'd and he receives my text messages from an email address of mine on his ipad that I also receive on mine! How do I remove my email?

My ex boyfriend and I used to share apple ids. Since we are no longer together, I have created my own apple id and associated my email address for texting on my ipad. However, he still receives my text messages that go to my email address on HIS ipad! I don't have his apple id password so I cannot delete my email from his iTunes account, nor will he give it to me. I just don't want him to see my text messages! How do I delete it from his ipad?

Each of you need to have your own apple id's instead of sharing is the best way. But you can go to each phones settings, messages, send and recieve, and down to start new conversation from, and make sure each of you have your own email address with a check mark beside of it not the same address.

I used to share one apple ID/account with my ex but made a new one for myself recently and logged out of the old one but when I try to update my iBooks it asks for the old account's password(which my ex changed by now)

I used to share one apple ID/account with my ex but made a new one for myself recently and logged out of the old one but when I try to update my iBooks (only happens with this app)it asks for the other account's password(which my ex changed by now). I don't understand why this happens when I'm logged into my account and it only happens with that app. Please help, I need to update. :/

Content (apps, music, ibooks, films etc) is tied to the account that originally downloaded it, so if the iBooks app was downloaded using the account that you used to share with your ex then only that account can download updates to it. As it's a free app you could delete it and re-download it under your own account - and then re-download your ibooks into it (or copy the books to your computer's iTunes first via File > Transfer Purchases and then sync them back to the app).

HT5622 My husband and I both have iPhones. We are currently using the same Apple ID. I have my own ID but when I send him a text message it comes back to me or goes to my computer. How do we separate the 2 ID's so we can send messages?

You need to reconfigure your phone for use with your Apple ID. I suggest you restore yours as new then reconfigure it with your information and Apple ID. Be sure to disable Find My Phone, if it's enabled, before proceeding.

I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
Hope that helps
