My iPhone was on my dads iTunes account. I got my own account and my phone is logged into it currently. Will he still be able to read my messages if I am not logged into his account or do I have to be logged into his account for my iMessages to go through

My iPhone was on my dad's iTune's account. I got my own accounts and my phone is currently logged into it. Will he still be able to receive my iMessages if he checks my number in the send receive thing in messages or can he only do that if I am logged onto his account? And one more question, will i lose all of my music if i sync my phone to my computer while logged into my new account that has no songs?

You can share the purchasing Apple ID in Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: (your dad's appleid here)
With all other Apple services, iMessage, iCloud, Game Center, FaceTime etc. use your own Apple ID.

  • I have 7 iPhones, do I need an iTunes accounts for all of them

    I have 7 iPhones, do I need an iTunes accounts for all of them

    In that case, here is the applicable section from the iTunes Store agreement...
    If you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, you may download and sync an App Store Product for use by either (a) a single individual on one or more iOS Devices used by that individual that you own or control or (b) multiple individuals, on a single shared iOS Device you own or control.
    So the way we have interpreted this is that each user( in a business) requires a separate iTunes account, though if the user had multiple devices that only he or she used, they need just one account for those devices.  If you are an educational institution you can check out the iOS 5 Education Deployment Guide.  Educational organizations have some different options.

  • If I move a mailbox from my imap account to "on my mac" can I safely delete the folder from the mail server and still be able to read the messages?

    You certainly can.
    Be aware that the emails you move to local storage ("on my Mac") will be the only copies that remain.

  • Itunes accounts for families

    Hi,
    I was wondering if there was any kind of itunes account for families. Something that might allow a family to set up 1 main iTunes account that provides, say, 5 'sub' accounts, allowing each member of the family to log into the iTunes store with a unique username.
    Thus allowing a bit more leeway in terms of:
    Each user having their own Mac OS Account, and iTunes library, yet having access to the other sub account holders iTunes Libraries, including purchased / copy protected content.
    iTunes (Audible account?) registered devices being iTunes 'sub' account based, because each family member might have an iPhone and an Apple TV, for example. Thus, for the average family, exceeding the maximum of 5 devices imposed by average iTunes (Audible?) account.
    The allowance of DRM / copy protected iTunes purchased content to be shared amongst family members, or 'sub' account holders devices.
    Support for imposing restrictions on sub account purchaces, administered by the main account holder (we can already restrict shich iTunes content is shared, which is cool).
    I know of not the first to dream of such things, but it's getting more relavent with the Apple TV.
    Any thoughts etc, Regards,
    c

    iTunes will need to be set up on your computer however you can set up a new Apple ID to use for your iPhone. Really all you need to do is Assign a new Apple ID to your iCloud account.
    Follow the link to create a new Apple ID: https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    After you do that, on the device you want to assign a new iCloud account go: Settings > iCloud > Delete Account and then sign in with the new Apple ID.
    NOTE: This does not effect iTunes, all of your devices can continue to use one shared iTunes account under your original Apple ID for downloading apps and backups. This simply gives iCloud a place to sync the individual devices information and will stop iCloud form merging all the information, such as contacts, with all of your devices.

    My Ipod was stolen and was not registered but was joined with an iTunes account can i find it?

    If you did not configure FindmyIPod on it, I'm afraid you are out of luck.  Report the theft to the local authorities and change the passwords to any and all accounts you have may used/accessed or configured on the iPod Touch.

  • I've had my itunes account for about a year now, and I just got the iPhone 5s.  All the music I've bought has downloaded onto the phone, but the cds I burned a few months back aren't in my music library on my phone. The sync button is gray.

    I've had my iTunes account for about a year now, and I just got the iPhone 5s.  I logged into my iTunes account on my phone just fine, and all the music I've bought on iTunes has transferred to my phone, but the cds I burned haven't.  The sync button is gray so I can't click on it. The songs from the cds on iTunes are checked and should sync but haven't. Please help!

  • I currently have one iTunes account for my personal iPod Touch and for my work iPhone and iPad.  Can I create a separate account for work and keep my current account for my personal use - on the same computers?

    I have an iTunes account for my personal iPod Touch - have had for several years.  When my work provided me with an iPhone and now and iPad 2, they all fall under my personal iTunes account.  Is it possible for me to create a separate account for my work devices and apps, while leaving my personal account intact?  I use both my compter at home and at work to sync occasionally.

    A much simpler solution would be to go into Settings > Store and turn off Automatic Downloads

    iOS 5 & iCloud Tips: Sharing an Apple ID With Your Family

  • Can I move games from one iPhone to Another on different iTunes accounts?

    We bought my daughter an iPhone 5C for christmas.    Up until now she has been sharing my iTunes account as she was using my old phone.
    This has meant that when she or I bought a new app, it automatically showed up on the others phone. (I know that this can be turned off)   We decided that we would create a new iTunes account for her when we got the new phone.
    I just assumed that this would mean we would need to repurchase  all her Apps.  She is a bit sad about this as it means rebuilding all her little Sims worlds and losing her high scores etc. 
    So, is there anyway that the Apps or at least the games content from her old phone can be transferred to the new one even though they are now on different iTunes accounts?  We share the same iCloud (so I can track here phone from mine)
    I don't think so - but she is adamant that it can be done - so I thought I would check.
    Thanks
    Craig

    It can be done, but you will have to sign in to your account on her itunes to updated the apps. Try these instructions:

  • How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

    How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

    They need to be registered under different Apple ID's.  The initial Apple ID is set when you first start the phone up.  If you've already registered the phone to the iTunes account, back it up to your computer, and then have iTunes do a factory reset.  Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your current Apple ID, select "Find My iPhone," choose the iPhone you want to dissociate from your primary Apple ID from the upper left, and then click the little circled X ("remove").
    When you start the phone, it will have you go through the setup process again, at which time you need to create a unique Apple ID for the device.  You can then restore it from your iTunes backup to get back your apps and other settings.
    Whenever you use the iTunes store, use the login information (Apple ID and password) that you were using before.  Basically, the second Apple ID that you created is purely used for accessing iCloud services, which includes synchronization of contacts, iCal events, and other such things.

    Quote: "You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details." See also Apple ID & iCloud FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    You can set up your iCloud account on your iOS device under: "Settings > iCloud" and a other account for store purchases under "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Unfortunately merging accounts is not possible but you could transfer all of your music manually via iTunes from your Mac or PC.
