My iPad opens my husband's email and contact. How do I change identities to me

My iPad opens my husband's email and contact but not mine. How do I change the identity of my iPad

I'm assuming you and your wife have different accounts and that hers has somehow been used in the setup of your devices/computers. (If you are both sharing one account, then you should consider using separate ones for icloud, otherwise everything you do will be shared with your wife. You can use the same account for itunes to share your purchases, unless you have already made purchases under separate itunes accounts, in which case you'll need to continue doing that.)
On a device, go to settings>icloud and scroll down to the bottom of the page and tap delete account. This will remove all icloud data from your device. Then at the top of the page, log into **your** account and all your data from your account will download.
Also, settings>itunes and apps stores, log out if it's the wrong account and log in using your account ID.

I want to switch my new iPad to my account, email etc and put the old iPad under my husbands account, email etc. How do I do that?

i just bought the new iPad and want to change the older iPad to my husband and have it use his email account, name and other apps and put the new iPad under my email, accounts etc.

Sync and backup your old iPad one last time and then connect the new iPad to iTunes and you will be given the option to set up as new or restore from the backup of the old iPad. Choose the restore from the backup option. After the iPad restores, follow that with a sync with iTunes.
You can erase the old iPad by going to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings. Then your husband can set it up as a new device and sync with his own iTunes library or content.

All devices are getting my emails and texts, How do I change that?

I have a few apple products. I updated to iO6 and all my devices are getting my emails.How do I change that?

Jerry,
Thanks for the info, but I did not see a circle in the upper left corner nor a paint brush to select format inspector. I did open inspector by clicking on the blue circle with the "i" in it and then clicked on "T" for text but I did not see any font settings. What is happening is that when I type text or numbers in a cell I see a random set of symbols in the cell, but in the bar above the table I see the correct text or numbers. I looked at some other solutions for default fonts and the response was that there is no way to change the default font. Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Pete

I shared an ipod 5th generation with my ex partner and she set it up with her email and password. how can i change it for my password and email address so that i can wipe it and start again?

i shared an ipod 5th gen with my ex partner and she set it up with her email and password. i have the ipod now but no password and would like to put it on my email and password so that i can wipe it clean and start again, any ideas?

The iPod isn't tied to an Apple ID, but is likely tied to an iTunes library. If you want to set it up as a new iPod (as if you were just pulling it out of the box), restore it to factory settings in iTunes.

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

How do I stop my new mac book pro from opening all my old emails and flasing them in the top right corner?

How do I stop my new Mac book Pro from opening all my old emails and flashing them in the upper right.

Copy the entire iTunes folder within the music folder on your old Mac to the music folder on your new Mac.
You can use an external hard disc for the transfer, or you can connect the computers together using Firewire Target Disc Mode as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1661

Then there's nothing you can do. Only the previous owner can help you. They must either provide the ID and password, or erase the phone and remove it from their account as explained in the article you were reading. There's no way around this.

Some of my apps on my ipad open but become very small and i cant use them
Has someone encounter thsi problem?
Any solution?

These apps are probably meant for the iPhone/iPod touch. Some apps are universal, and other have dedicated iPad versions.

Can't open email and contacts after changing email address in iCloud

I changed my email address in iTunes and iCloud and now I cannot open email and contacts. The beachball appears and after about 2-3 minutes I get a message that the program cannot open. I'm ready to throw my iMac out the window. It is only a couple months old.

Back up all data.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.

There is a huge difference between sending email and sending messages.
Yes, I believe you when you say you can only send messages to other Apple products. The iPad is not a telephone, and therefore, it cannot text message. It can only iMessage, which means it can send and receive messages to/from other Apple products if they are on WiFi or an iMessage capable cellular network.
Email, however, is a whole different category. I don't really think you can only exchange email with other Apple products only. Make sure you have correctly identified the symptoms.

Need Icloud HELP!!! 2 email and contact account pulling from one ID

My wife and I have the same apple ID and when I set up Icloud it insist on us recieving the same email and contacts even though hers is entered under her email???

You can use the same iTunes. The only minor issue is app updating. Each purchased item is permanently associated with whatever ID was used to obtain it. IF you choose to update an app from inside iTunes and your logged in to the "wrong" ID, it's necessary to log out/in to update the app.
It's easier if you do your updating directly to the iPad and let it sync the updated items back to the iTunes library. There is no need to log out/in but you do need to know the password. In my case, both passwords are deliberately identical to make things easier for us.
On the other hand, the sync operation does not care what ID was used to obtain the app. All apps (and music and movies and TV shows) are synced without regard to the ID that was used for the purchase.
Be careful with TV shows. Apple offers a lower-cost upgrade to get all shows from a given year. However, the dollar cost of the upgrade is based on the shows purchased with whatever ID you're currently logged in with. Simple solution - get all shows from a specific series with the same ID.

I have both Photoshop 4 and Photoshop 6 on my computer. When I am in Bridge and want to open an image by double clicking, it automatically opens in 6. I see, when I go to "open with" 6 is listed as "default" How can I change the default to open an image with a double click in 4?

You can associate files from the Bridge level and the Desktop level.
In Bridge CS4, go to Preferences > File Type Associations and change it to Photoshop CS4 for the file types you want.
If you want to open files from the Windows Desktop in CS4, these are the instructions:
Do this from the Windows Desktop:
If you want your image file to open in Photoshop and it doesn't, right click on it and choose
Open with > Choose default program… select Photoshop CS4 or CS6 and checkmark "always use the selected program to open this type of file".
