Must a Managed and Supervised Device Have an Apple ID In Order To Use VPP via MDM?

I'm using Apple Configurator to supervise devices and Mavericks Server Profile Manager for MDM. I am able to push a VPP invite to the device, but after tapping Continue, nothing happens. From what I've read so far, I think I have to create a throwaway Apple ID for all my managed devices. Is this true? I really want to be able to push apps to iPads and iPhones out in the field. Thanks!

Hi,
Your assumption is corrct. Each device needs it's own Apple ID. To create an Apple ID you need a working email address.
Also the Apple's systems only allow for about 10 ID's to be made per day from a domain/IP so in order to create a large number of ID's you will need to contact your device provider to setup a whitelist period with Apple. They tend to only allow this for class sets so if each device has a unique owner that owner will need to create the ID individually.

I and my brother have different apple id's but are using the single itunes library on our home PC.When i am syncing my iphone most of the times the apps that were purchased with my brothers apple id is also getting on my iphone.

i and my brother have different apple id's but are using the single itunes library on our home PC.When i am syncing my iphone most of the times the apps that were purchased with my brothers apple id is also getting on my iphone.
How do i differentiate the apps that were purchased with my apple id and sync accordingly.As i want only the apps that were purchased in my apple id.
I am aware of the fact that i can click on the app and check with "getinfo" to see with whose apple id it is brought.but there are hundreds app which i cannot check one by one.
How do i filter the apps with apple id and sync?

Connect the device to the computer.
Open iTunes.
Select the content desired to sync.
Sync.

Do you need to use an email as an apple ID? We have a family email which is currently the apple ID so I can keep track of purchases but i have 2 iPhones and 2 itouches. Can all 4 devices have different apple ID under the same email address. Also I wanted to know because for the game center we wanted to keep track of each individual not just o e account. DID I MAKE SENSE

Figured it out. Thanks.

I recently got a iphone and i gave my daughter my ipod and we only have one apple id, is there a way to manage this so I don't see all my daughters imessages?

I recntly got a iphone and i gave my daughter my ipod and we only have one apple id, is there a way to seperate the two so I don't see her instant messages? or do we have to have seperate apple IDs?

Create a second Apple ID for a separate iCloud account. You can still share the Apple ID for iTunes purchases, but separate for the cloud.

HT204053 My husband and I have separate apple IDs, how do we use the same iTunes account

My husband and I have separate apple IDs , how do we use the same iTunes account

You don't. Each ID is associated with a separate account. Each of you should maintain a separate user account on your computer so as to maintain separate iTunes Libraries. Do not sync your phone with your husbands account or Apple ID and vice-versa or your data will become inter-mixed or worse - deleted from the phone.
Try to understand that iDevices are intended for use by one person with one Apple ID, one iTunes Library, and one iTunes account. They are not multi-user devices.

How do i sync apps to my iPhone 4S using itunes without losing aps already installed on the phone but with a different apple ID, and i dont have the apple ID??

How have you managed to get apps on your phone that are tied to a different and unknown AppleID?
If these apps were not purchased by you, having them is effectively software piracy and you should purchase them using your own AppleID if you want to keep hem.

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.

Managing multiple iOS devices on different Apple accounts from the same iMac

May be a very simple question to answer, but can I manage multiple iOS devices on different Apple accounts from the same iMac?
I ask as whilst I'm totally Mac'd, my partner who has her own Apple account has a Winows laptop and experiences problems updating iOS software on her iPhone 4S and iPad 3 Gen via the laptop. I'm thinking the problems may be overcome if we manage her iOS devices through my iMac.

Thanks dwb .... I thought there'd be a catch .... not to keen on all that media and apps on my iMac!
The specific problem is that whenever she updates to the latsest version of iOS using the latest iTunes for Windows on her PC laptop she seems to lose something in the process. One time she lost all her texts and the other day when updating to 5.1.1 she lost all her reminders. Not the end of the world but frustrating and shouldn't really happen and doesn't happen to me using the iMac and OSX.

I have two apple id accounts ,when i used to update application it used to prompt a default id and if the application was downloaded using the other id i would cancel and it would prompt the other id but not any more .

i have two apple id accounts ,when i used to update application it used to prompt a default id (the old one) and if the application was downloaded using the other id i would cancel and it would prompt the other id but not any more .
it just prompt the old id which im not signed in with im signed in using the new id and when i cancel nothing happens and when i try to update applications separately i have the same problem .
im signed in using the new id
the old one is my wife's so i can't delete it
the problem happens when i update all or each application by its own
using ios 5.0.1 on a iphone 3gs
the applications are downloaded using both the new and old id's
any help will be greatly appreciatedِ

These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here and they don't monitor these forums - I've asked the hosts to remove yout account ids from your post.
In terms of combining accounts it's not currently possible to do so, nor to copy/transfer content from account to another.

Can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

Yes.
You need to sign into home sharing using ONE Apple ID. So either pick yours or hers, use the same one for home sharing on the computers. Once they are signed in on both Macs you can access media that the other user purchased.
Click the 'Shared House' for her library (if you have the sidebar enabled) when you are in your iTunes to access her media & vice versa, both iTunes needs to be running & awake.

Once you setup your wife's account you can enable fast user switching to make it easy to switch accounts:

To map the drive on your computer click on Start - RUN - type "\\192.168.1.1" and click ok... When prompted for Username and Password type "admin" and click ok... Now you will be able to see the folder which you have shared on your router, right click on it and select "Map network drive" and click on finish.
Now it will map the drive on your computer and you should be able to transfer the file from your computer to the USB drive.

It doesn't really matter which country your hosting service is located in so long as they offer 24/7 tech support in your chosen language. Telephone support is usually free of charge to you.

My wife and I each have an Apple account, and we each have an iPad and iPhone. Is there any way for us to sync our calendars so that each of our appointments are on all devises?

This may not be exactly what you are looking for but my wife and I have a similar situation and all we do is invite each other to any calendar stuff we both need to know about. Another way you could do it is us a 3rd party calendaring that will duplicate all your entries on their server and your wife would do the same and setup a single account with that service that you both attach to your built in calendaring provided you give proper permissions. The one I would try is google calendaring which works well if you have a gmail account.
