Welcome to the Apple Community.
For homesharing to work, all devices need to be on the same network.

My daughter is currently using my Apple ID with her ipod touch. I will be upgrading her to an iPhone 4S and would like to use a different Apple ID and a new computer and still keep all the current music and Apps that she has now. How do I do this?
Make a new Apple ID for her.
Use it on her iPhone 4S for iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime.
Use your ID on her iPhone 4S for iTunes and App Stores.
Sign in with your Apple ID on iTunes Store (on iTunes app of her new computer)
Authorize her new computer with your Apple ID in iTunes (iTunes menu>Store>Authorize this Computer)
Check "Share my Library on my Local Network" in iTunes Preferences in your and her computer
Sign in Home Sharing of her iTunes with your Apple ID.
Copy all the Music she wants from the old computer to the new one. (Must be on the same network)
Copy all the apps she wants from the old computer to the new one. (Must be on the same network)
Export all playlist as xml files from the old computer to the new one.(right click on the playlist to export and "File>Library>Import Playlist to Import)
Sync her iPhone 4S with all content she wants from her new computer (all data from the old computer will be deleted)
Are you sharing Contacts or other data from iCloud?
Be careful or ask for help about moving from iCloud account to another one. -

I have 3 different apple devices (iPod Touch, iPad and MacBook Pro) using the same Apple ID and would like to use FaceTime to call from one device to the other. Do I need a different Apple ID for one of the devices in order to do that?
I found this on a related question in the Community:
Yes you can do it. I do it with 4 different devices all using the same Apple ID.
You need to associate different email addresses for each device in order to use those email addresses as the "contact at" email address. The reason the calls are dropping on you now is that what you are trying to do is like calling yourself on your own phone.
You can also create new iCloud accounts on each device simply to use for FaceTime, but I'm guessing that the users of the other two devices have their own email addresses which will make this work for you quite easily.
Take a look at this for more information.
The seems to go against what Gail said and the issue you raised about buying dup apps was my first concern. If this other post is correct, how to I set a different "contact at" in the iPod Touch?

I need help with color pallette in iPhoto 11. I have created a book and would like to use a different color background than those given in "background." I have found the color palettes but can't seem to incorporate them into my backgrounds palette.
That is not a feature of iPhoto - suggest to Apple - iPhoto Menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback.
Additionally I have no idea what you are saying here
I have found the color palettes but can't seem to incorporate them into my backgrounds palette.
And it always helps for you to dientify the version of iPhoto that you are using

I have two iPads, two separate accounts I have purchased apps on one Acc. and would like to use them on my second iPad. How is this possible
If you go to Settings > iTunes & AppStore , you can sign out from your account, and sign in with the one you've used to purchase apps.This will not remove any apps you already have on it.
Then you can go to AppStore and download apps you've purchased (either via "Purchased" button in "Updates", or simply search for them and download them.
That way you can have multiple accounts' apps on your iPad. When updating, you will be prompted for the credentials for account you've purchased given App with. -

I just purchased a new mac mini and would like to use my old dell monitor. I tried a HD to VGA adapter converter,it plugs in, but nothing shows on the monitor. Any suggestions?
What do you mean by "HD to VGA adapter converter"?
Do you mean have an HDMI to VGA adapter connected the the Mini's HDMI port?
Or maybe you plugged n the the included HDMI to DVI adapter and then connected a DVI to DVI adapter?
In either case that will not work since VGA is analog and the Mini's HDMI port is digital only.
You need to purchase a mini displayport to VGA adapter. It plugs into the Mini's Thunderbolt port.

Make sure you get a name--brand one. I purchased some el cheapo, no-name ones and they did not work -
I have manually inputted data into a blank spreadsheet and would like to use a form to enter data into that sheet !!! How do I do that please
Leigh,
After creating your table, Tap the Tab marked "+" and select "Form" - you will be asked which table to use. (You should get into the habit of naming your tables - if the table name isn't visible, select the table and tap the Styles (Brush) Menu > Table > Turn ON table Name, then double tap on the Table to edit it.)
Select the table you wish to to fill with a form and you will see a new form based on the header data.
The form will allow you to add one row at a time and when you get to the last row, there is an option at the bottom of the form to add a new row using the "+" button. At the top of the form is the row header which you can rename by double tapping.
You can also rename the form on the Tab by double tapping on the name.
Try it out. -
dowloaded the ios6 on my ipad2...and would like to use Siri...how do I proceed
The light grey smallprint said no SIRI for ipad 2. It's not the processor, greed maybe. It gets harder to defend Apple prices all the time when they pull this kind of stuf. My 25 years of loyalty is waning.

I bought a 3G and a 4G in Australia while working there for 3.5 years. I have since returned permanently to the USA and would like to use one of these, understanding the GSM requires using AT&T? When in Australia, I took these iphones to the Apple Store and they unlocked the 3G for me, knowing that I would be using it in the USA - but when I took it into the AT&T store in California, the iphone would not work with AT&T's SIM card. May I unlock the 3G and/or 4G somewhere in the USA with Apple's blessing?
If your phones were unlocked by your carrier, they should work with AT&T SIM cards. You'll have to sign up for an iPhone phone and data plan with AT&T, but the SIM should definitely work. Go to an AT&T store and have them set up your account and activate your SIM there.
AT&T will NOT be able to unlock your Australia-purchased phones. -
Hi i am using iphone 5 and 5c on ios7.0.4 and would like to use these on wireless only with no carrier service for voip apps. how to i prevent the error Iphone is not activated contact your carrier?

when i remove the sim card it gives me errors that there is no sim.
You should only need a SIM in it to actually activate it in iTunes. Once activated, leave the SIM in or remove it, it should not matter.
Then, turn on airplane mode. And then, go into wifi settings and re-enable wifi (this leaves the cellular radio in airplane mode = powered off).
Now your iPhone is effectively no more than a (wifi only) iPod Touch. -
My MacBook Pro isn't a year old yet and would like to use iCloud. However, very apprehensive about Lion upgrade...how can I find out what I will lose if I upgrade?
Ajimd33 wrote:
I appreciate the prompt response. Having read several threads, you can appreciate why I would be hesistant to upgrade to the Lion. All I basically use is Office for Mac and the other basic functions such as email/calendar/address/contacts...etc. I have read horror stories about peoples stuff dissapearing into cyberspace and obvi dont want that to happen.
That's all nonsense. Most people don't post anything if they don't have any problems. People who do have problems usually have very specific reasons for them that they have caused themselves. -
Bought a flight simulator and would like to use a joystick. Need a recommendation for a decent device compatible with a MacAir.
Thanks, Sig. I think I should've been a little clearer. I've attempted to do the updates on my Mac, but I get a warning that it will erase everything except calenders, email, etc from the iPad. I've syned the iPad with the Mac with no problem, but get scary messages when I try to do the latest update.
