How can I share two differents Itunes accounts in my Apple TV ? I have one and my wife has another account and we want to share both in our apple tv. How can I do this ???
I assume you have different iTunes collections on different PC's, or on different logins on the same PC? If that's the case then just enable "Home Sharing" in each iTunes using the SAME iTunes username and password as you enabled home sharing on the Apple TV with. The account used for home sharing is NOT the same as the account used to access the iTunes store, so as long as you use the same account (pick one, doesn't matter which) then you should see both of yor iTunes libraries on the Apple TV. Note - each iTunes has ti be running in order for the Apple TV to see the library.
Here's some details on how to do it:

my partner has an ipad and i have a mac book pro... we share the same itunes account (apple id) but believe we can have a seperate apple id for use of the icloud... we do not want each others documents to be in sync with ipad and mac book... help? thanks
Each of you should set up your separate iCloud account on your own computer using your Apple ID. This gives you two independent iCloud accounts.
Note that an iPad is not a multi-user device. It can only be synced with one account. -
I have an icloud account with two other users besides myself. We share the same game center. We want our own. My two children want their own Clash of Clans account! What do I do?
Log out of Gamecenter and try downloading CoC again. if it doesn't prompt you with a new village, try downloading with a different apple id. if that doesn't work, you would need a new device to create a new village and transferring it to your sons device using the code in the CoC settings.

My husband and I share one computer. We want to be able to share the same music on our iPhones, but we don't want to share the same contacts and applications. How can I set this up so we still share music, but everything else is separate on our iPhones?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
iTunes and iCloud are different accounts. You can both use the same ID for the store login and share your music etc., and use different ID's to log in to iCloud, thereby keeping your calendars etc separate. -
Hello Apple Support,
My iPhone 5 has been stolen and I want to lock the device totally.
My Apple ID is **********Stolen Device Serial Number: DN*******TWD
Stolen Device EMEI: *********.
<Edited by Host>Sorry if my English isn't correct because of I'm Italian.
You must switch on the lost mode on the app " Find my iPhone ".
If you can see it on the map of this app, you will know where is your iPhone in that moment.
REMEMBER: you can see your iPhone on the map of " Find my iPhone" only if it is online. Indeed you can't see your iPhone if it's offlined or switched of. -
How do i make icloud work if my husband and I share the same itunes account but we dont want to get each others contacts, messages, apps etc?
Each of you should set up your separate iCloud account on your own computer using your Apple ID. This gives you two independent iCloud accounts.
Note that an iPad is not a multi-user device. It can only be synced with one account. -

Can two users work on different files of the same project?
Sorry if this has been asked already...but can two users work
on different files of the same project? How would that work? Would
it work something like this?
1. From RoboHelp 7, user A checks out the entire project.
2. User A checks in the files they are not working with.
3. User B checks out the project but can only 'edit' the
files that have been checked in by user A.
Is this how the source control works?That's the basic idea. User A doesn't actually have to check
out the whole project, though. RSC will selectively check out only
the files that are actually getting changed. Both writers will have
a complete copy of the project on their local machines, but the
files are read-only until they are literally checked out, which is
on an as-needed basis unless the writer explicitly checks them out.

Hey, I have two macbook pros (250 gb). They are both running out of space. My first thought was to share an iphoto library off of Dropbox or our Time Capsule. But, I heard that if one file gets corrupted (interenet cuts out, for example) then the whole library gets corrupted. Well, we're full again and now I am wondering if I could move our Itunes folders to our Time Capsule, sync/sort them both so there won't be any duplicates and then use this as a shared itunes library. So first, is this possible? Both computers share the same itunes account.
Second, if I do, and I purchase a song, show, whatever, does it automatically be added to the itunes library on our Time Capsule and then it is available for both computers to access? Or do I need to "import" it on both?
Third, does the "file corruption" issue listed above pertain to itunes?
I saw a discussion about this but it was form 2008. I am sure things have changed a bit since then.
Thanks for the help!

I have multiple phones and iPads and all are linked to one iCloud account and one iTunes Account. I want to keep the same iTunes Account so I can share music, etc., however, I want each device to have its own iCloud account. Any help on how I can I do this?
You'll need to create an Apple ID for each device. Use the new Apple ID for FaceTime, iMessage and iCloud on the device. Use the original Apple ID for Settings>iTunes & App Store.

I have two IPhones and one IPad all with the same Apple ID. I can call facetime between the two IPhones, but I cannot call the IPAD from either of the IPhones and when I call my IPhone from the IPad it rings my wife's IPhone after briefly calling mine.
Each device needs a separate address. Use an email address (gmail.com) on the iPad.

Hi. My husband and I have always shared the same iTunes account. Since installing iCloud, all our contacts and calenders have merged on our iPhone 4, which we do not want. How do I rectify this? Does my husband need to set up his own apple ID? If so, where do I need to change his email address info, so that his calender and contacts remain his? Thank you
You can continue to use the current AppleID for iTunes, but your husband can create a new AppleID to use to create a new iCloud account that will be his own and not overlap with yours. If you do not have another email address to use for an AppleID, just get a free Gmail account and use that.
You can have as many AppleIDs as you want (or at least, as many as you have email addresses for). You can use a separate AppleID for the store, another for iCloud, and even another for iMessage if you wish.
You will want to keep the current one as the shared one for the store as all your previous purchases are permanently tied to it, and thus you need that AppleID to update or redownload your current purchased content.
