You can all share one iTunes account/library!

The ability to see and send calendar invites is a function of the calendar you are subscribing to and who owns it. We need more information, like what calendar are you subscribing to? MS Exchange? Google? Mobile Me?

I have 2 iphones 4s's, ones my wife and one is mine. we have different apple IDs, can we share one itunes account?? if so, how??

If you haven't set up your own Apple ID already don't. I suggest you use the same apple ID as your wife's. The alternative is to do this http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848. It's not efficient as you have to swap apple id's to update apps under both IDs. 20/20 being hindsight, I would have never created a 2nd apple ID for my wife.
Hope this helps.

Wifi and bluetooth hardware missing in my ipod touch could any one help me to fix it?

wifi and bluetooth hardware missing in my ipod touch could any one help me to fix it?

If the following is your problem try the troubleshooting described within:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
Frequently it is due to hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
If that is not your problem then we need more information about hur problem. How do you know the"hardware" is missing?

If I have a MacBook Air, can I download digital copies of movies onto another computer that uses the same iTunes account and still get the movies on my MacBook?

In most countries with a lot of movies yes you can, just like how iCloud works with apps/music

I have an personal Itunes account and Ipone 5 and now work have given me a 5s do I need a seperate Itunes account for this?

I have just got a 5s from work to replace my Crapberry at last. I have an exsisting Itunes account for my personal Iphone 5. which I will keep. Is it OK to have both on the single Itunes account or should I set up a seperate Itunes for the work phone?

That's up to you, unless your employer requires differently. You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account. You can have the same content on each device or different content, again the choice is yours.
If you decide to setup a separate Apple ID/iTunes account for this phone, I recommend you also setup a different user account on your computer & use that account/iTunes for the phone. Do that, & there's no way the data can get mingled.

Corporate itunes account for our fleet of iPhones?

We have 200 corporate owned iPhones. Can I or should I use a single iTunes account for all iPhones? We started testing and manually activated 3 devices. Unfortunately all three devices popped up asking if we wanted use the other two phone numbers for FaceTime, iMessage etc.
Easy enough to select No to the pop up twice, but it will not be efficient to do this 200 times. Any suggestions?

You need a MDM solution to mange the devices
VPP for app licence management
and DEP if your in a country that' DEP is supported
Apple Configurator and a MDM solution can greatly speed up deployment
You also need to be aware of ios7 activation lock if your not managing the devices you may find yourself
locked out and unable to restore or erase devices, If a user sets up find my iPhone for themselves

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You should use the same iTunes account for all your devices.

My wife and I have shared one iTunes account for 6 years. We want to create our own Apple IDs, so when we sync to our new iMac we won't see each others contacts, photos, calendar, music, etc. Is there a way to move music/apps from one ID to a new ID?

No.
One of you create a new AppleID and one use the existing AppleID.
But you can still use the items in each iTunes library.
Create separate computer logins for each of you.
This will give you each your own data. Contacts, calendars, photos, etc. (and your own iTunes library).

My wife and i both have an itunes library installed on to our separate pc's, we are now de-commissioning the pc's and are moving over to a single mac mini, can we install both libraries on to the mac mini and run them as separate libraries?

Generally YES.
It's possible to hold separate iTunes library's on a single machine.
Generate two new folders inside the Music folder of the Mini and name them differently; e.g. man and woman.
Copy your whole library into "man" and your wifes into "woman"
Go to sharing in the system settings of the Mini and share the Music folder in your network.
After copying the whole library's to the Mini you may point iTunes to the new location at startup by holding the option key (alt) at the keyboard.
iTunes will then ask you where the library is located.
Point it to the matching library on the Mini.
That's all.

PS ... If you both use only the Mini you have to setup a user account for each and just copy the whole library to the Music folder in particular.

HT3529 My wife and I both have an iphone. We initially created it under her apple id. We will receive each others text messages from certain people not all. Any ideas why and what we can do to stop it

My wife and I both have an iphone. We initially set them up under one apple id account. When we text sometimes we will receive each others text messages from others. Example I will text a friend...she will not see my text but the reply comes to both of us. It seems to be random which ones. Any ideas how to correct this

Yup, get your own AppleID.
The messages that are being sent to both phones are technically not text, they are Apple's iMessage. They use the data part, not the texting part. So if you have an iPad or a Mac computer, you can send/receive the iMessages there too.

We have an itunes account on our desktop and my kids have it on their ipod and iphone. I went in and changed our user name from my old e-mail address which is no longer accessible to my new one and now either of my kids can access the itunes store..

We have an itunes account on our desktop and both my kids have it on iphone and ipod. I went in and changed out user name from an old e-mail address which is no longer accessible to my one I use now... When the kids try to sign onto the itunes store it tells them they have the wrong user name..
Can this be fixed??

Did you change the email address or create a new Apple ID?
If the email address associated with the account was merely changed, sign out of the Apple ID on the devices and sign in using the new credentials.

My kids, wife, and I each have our own ipods, can we share one family itnes or do each of us need our own itunes account for our own devices?
