my wife and i share a computer. when she looks for her info in her cloud acct on the desktop my info appears in her account. Cannot understand why her info from her phone would appear to be nowhere and mine is in her account. Help us understand this please?
On the shared computer click on System Preferences -> iCloud -> Account Details verify that each individual account is configured correctly. By default, the Apple ID used to install the computer the first time is used for all accounts on the computer, unless it is changed.

My wife and I share a computer for our itunes accounts. How can we copy our music libraries to each others accounts without erasing the original library? We want to merge our songs.
If the music is on the same computer, import the songs to your iTunes library by dragging them into iTunes or choosing File > Add to Library (Mac) or File > Add File to Library or Add Folder to Library (Windows). If the music is on different computers you can set up Home Sharing to copy the music from one library to the other (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3819 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4620).

I'm having problems with random contacts disappearing from icloud. I have a saved text from a contact that displays her info but when I look for her in contacts it's missing.
It is locked to your sisters carrier.
She would have to ask her carrier if they unlock iPhones and if she qualifies for this service. -
I am trying to set up a user account for my 3 year old so that when she goes into her account, only her games show up on her desktop. How??

iMac running Mavericks, Firefox 31.0. She gets these type of messages periodically and I don't. However, if I go to Firefox>About Firefox I get an automatic update. This causes a lot of confusion on her part, and mine as well. It appears to be spam but then it's not.
hello donRobo705, this might be something that is caused by rogue addons. in her account please go to the menu > add-ons > extensions and remove any entries that didn't get installed intentionally or where you don't know which purpose they serve or try to [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] and see if this can address the issue...

I moved my itunes media folder to my public folder in my home folder so that my wife can share my music when she logs on as a user. Since doing this Aperture cannot locate any itunes music files and so I cannot add any music to a slideshow. All of my existing slideshows no longer play music. Can anyone help?
ThanksThank you for your prompt response - I did as you said and did a drag and drop into the iTunes window - it imported and got my album art from the net. When I started Itunes with the shift key down I was prompted to choose a library but since I copied over the media folder and not the library folder I was unable to select that so I guess I will have to create a new library and add in all the music, videos, etc. unless I wait for my laptop and export the library or at least that seems to be the case? In short, all my data (iTunes media folder) is on my external drive and can be added to the blank iTunes screen but I can not choose a library folder. Is there anyway around completely making all those playlists again? I am not sure my laptop will survive the shop with data intact and really hate to start over on those.
In an unrelated question - I collect old TV shows from the 1950's. Can I make playlists within the home video folder somehow? In other words like one for Quiz shows, one for comedies, one for police and detective shows, etc. while I am remaking all my playlists for my music if I end up having to go that route?
Once again thank you for helping me out. I am not too Itunes savvy and really appreciate you taking the time to answer. -
My wife and myself share a home computer - we have separate Apple Id's. I can't download songs my wife is showing in her library to my iphone. How can I do this ?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
Whilst you want seperate accounts, I assume this is to keep your contacts etc seperate, you can still both use the same iTunes account, which will allow you to share your music etc. -
My wife and I share one itunes account with separate libraries. When I sync her iphone in her library, it adds all of my iphone contacts to her contact list. How can we avoid this?
Make groups of contacts in your Address Book and select the option to sync only selected groups to each phone.
This explains how to create groups: Mac 101: Address Book, http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2486 -

My wife and I share an Apple ID when we purchase all our devises. If we use the Icloud would all our information be mixed together in the cloud.

If both of you turn on the same iCloud services in your devices, your information will get mixed and will appear in all your devices.
To prevent this, the only thing you can do is to create another Apple ID for your wife or you, so you will have your information separated. Anothe roption is to allow your wife or you to use iCloud, and the other one should not use iCloud, so in this case the information won't get mixed
Nice Mende, I didn't even think of that. -
My wife and I share the same iTunes account. How do I setup a separate account for her? Can I do it using my iMac?
ThanksUsing More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library
Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data. Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
