My daughter and I both have an iPhone and we have shared my apple ID. Now her phone is syncing with mine and we want to have different contacts. How do I differentiate between the two phones?
My daugher and I both have an iPhone and we have shared my apple ID. She just replaced her phone and now our contacts are syncing -- and we don't want that. How do I differentiate between the two phones?
Is the same Apple iCloud account being accessed on each iPhone?

My iPhone has a different id than my iPad. How can I stream between the two devices
I should say that you can add the other account to each device as a seconday account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud and signing in with the ID the other device is using. This would allow you to see mail, contacts, calendars, reminders and notes from the other account alongside the same data from the primary account on each device.

I have just owned a macbook pro and trying to learn things since i have all along used windows laptop. My first question is : when there are two files i am working together, one above the other on screen, how you switch over between the two with key ?
Hi...
Mac OS X keyboard shortcuts
Control-F4
Move focus to the active (or next) window
Shift-Control-F4
Move focus to the previously active window
By the way... since you are new to Mac, click a clear space on your Desktop. You should see "Finder" top left corner of the screen in the menu bar.
Click Help then click Help Center
As an example type in keyboard shortcuts
You can use the Help menu for almost any application on your Mac.

Bought an ipad but the seller didn't erase his Apple ID. I don't have his #. I restored it it asked me for a Apple ID I tried to sign in with mine and it asked me for a different Apple ID. What can I do or am I stuck with a non working ipad? Pls help.
The previous user should have done this.

You may have bought a stolen iPad. Or get a refund from the seller.

I've set up two music libraries. How do I move between the two?
I've created two music libraries on my MacBook but I don't know how to move between the two. Please help?

Why?
If you are syncing separate iDevices, you can use the same library and sync different content
I don't know how to move between the two. Please help?
Same way you created two library.

I have moved my music to my new mac air but now it won't sync with my ipod or my iphone 4s
I have transferred mymusic to my new mac air from an acer laptop via an external hard drive and it's all there on the mac but now itunes won't sync with my ipod touch or my iphone 4s.
With the ipod it says 'iTunes could not connect to this iPhone. Could not connect to the device " It also doesn't show up at all in the devices section.
With the iphone it says there isn't enough space to sync even though I have experimented and unticked various things including photos which takes up a lot of space. It seems like it wants to sync with the empty space on the iphone (very small!) and not with the whole thing. I have tried various things suggested on this forum but have had no luck.iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

Hello!
There are a couple ways that you can process this. You have the option to download past purchases for free via the purchased section of the iTunes Store. You also can enable Home Sharing in iTunes. Home Sharing will allow you to transfer the media that you are missing. Here are the articles that walk you through these steps.

I have upgraded my iMac to Microsolf Office 2011 version 14.1.4 and now Outlook will not sync the calender contents and contacts to iCal and Address Book. Prior to the installation of 14.1.4 all worked well. Discovered the problem when I sync'ed my iPad and the addresses and calendar went missing. New entries to the calendar will sync. Help.
Office is not an Apple product. You are much more likely to find a resultion in the MS forums:

Recommendations for a phone that will sync with iCal and Addressbook?
I'm confused by the posts regarding what mobile phones will and won't sync with iCal and Addressbook. Apple has a list of isync compatible devices (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/devices.html), but it seems from some of the posts here as though phones not listed will also sync.
Can those of you who know about cellular phones that sync with iCal and Addressbook please recommend some models for me. These are the things I need:
-Cingular service compatibility
-syncs with iCal (including to dos) and Addressbook (must store at least 1500 entries)
-bluetooth
-a small phone would be nice
I don't care whether it has a camera, an mp3player, PTT, picture messaging, video, or voice activation. Wi-Fi would be nice, but it's not imperative. Also, please let me know if I would need to purchase any third-party software or hardware.
Thank you.
Todd BerlinerThe supported device list contains a list of devices that Apple claims are explicitly compatible with iSync out of the box, subject to the limitations outlined in the footnotes at the bottom of the page [the ones that apparently almost no one ever reads] and the general rule that carriers may not support certain features [say, Bluetooth or USB] and may not support certain functions [say, calendar synchronization] with a supported device.
Manufacturers like Audiovox, LG, Samsung and Sharp are not supported, unless they run an OS listed below, instead of their proprietary operating systems. If a device is not manufactured by Motorola, Nokia, Panasonic, Seimens, Sendo or SONY Ericsson, it is generally not supported, unless it uses…
• the Blackberry OS [which requires third-party software]
• the danger HipTop OS [which requires third-party software]
• the Palm OS [which is is supported but performs better with third-party software]
• the Windows Mobile OS [which requires third-party software*]
*Windows Mobile 5 device support is not yet available in release software.
…or, an iSync-compatible plug-in has been written to extend support to a specific device or family of devices.
Julian referred you to a site where he has made a number of plug-ins available for various mobile handsets. Nova Media also sells a low cost package of plug-ins providing support for various handsets.
http://www.novamedia.de/sync/index.html
Others have built single-use plug ins with various degrees of success, which you can find using tools like Google.
The bottom line: if you are going to vary from the iSync Supported Device list, you have to do some relatively extensive research, including searching these forums for your specific device, to determine if it can be supported. Many plug-ins are intended only to work with iSync 2.2, so Mac OS X 10.4.6 is a requirement in most cases. -

To wipe phone
Turn off imessage in settings/messages

Erase all data and settings in settings/general/reset
Delete the phone from your profile in https://supportprofile.apple.com if you registered your phone there -
I have one iPhone GS and one iPad 2, how do I syncronise my contacts and my calendar between the two devices?
Install iOS 5 onto both and you can use iCloud to sync contacts and calendars between the 2 devices.

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.
