My Wife's Devices on My iTunes Account

I started having two Apple iPhones on one iTunes account with home sharing.  I now (presently) have and iPhone 4S and a New (3rd Gen) iPad.  My wife now has and iPhone 3GS and an iPad 2; both devices were formerly mine but where transferred and re-named as my wife's devices.  Her tastes & my tastes are completely different, I like music on my devices, she doesn't want any music on her devices.  We have a few Apps that we home-share and both use, but mostly she has her Apps that she uses and I have mine.  We share one Windows7 computer that has 2 users with two separate desktops. 
I now set-up a separate iTunes Account on her desktop in Windows 7 and I have mine.  However when looking and opening iTunes on my desktop, her devices pop-up and are shown syncing or attempting to sync on my iTunes account.  I deleted her Apps and her devices in the Edit>Preferences> Devices screen in iTunes, yet her devices show-up and attempt to sync/run under the Device Tab on the Left-Side of the iTunes window when in my iTunes account, that I deleted, or I thought were deleted. 
How do I permanently delete my wife's device off my iTunes account, they're set-up to sync and run and do so in her iTunes account?

If your are recieving mixed information on your phone on multiple devices this is going to be related to iMessage.
On your phone navagate to settings > messages > send and receive.
Check the information in that section make sure it relates to your AppleID and your phone.  If you share a AppleID with the individual create a new AppleID for their device and insert that information.
If the numbers don't remove turn of iMessage restart your phone and turn it back it.
If all else fails disable iMessage otherwise turning it off is the quickest fix.

  • HT3819 Home Share issue: I have a Mac and Apple TV. Both are log into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view purchased movies on AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers. Itunes sidebar-no

    Has anyone else found solution to Apple devices not 'seeing' each other on Home Share?  I have a Macbook Air (new Nov'12) and Apple TV (new Dec'12). Software updated on both. Both are logged into the same Wifi network and the same iTunes account (I can view movies purchased from iTunes on my AppleTV). Home Sharing shows 'ON' for both devices. BUT...AppleTV shows no computers... and ... Itunes sidebar does not have a 'Shared' area at all.  Help please as without this functionality, my Apple TV only provides portal to purchased (i.e. Netflix,...) content which I can get from Wii or Xbox.
    I have already tried the following without success:
    1. Homeshare DID work the first day after I setup Apple TV... but the next day it has not worked since then.
    2. Powered off 30 sec then re-started (Apple TV & Macbook & iTunes login)
    3. Checked Firewall settings per Home Sharing troubleshooting guide (correct settings)
    4. Turning on Photostream in iPhoto and selecting iPhoto within iTunes and then checking to see if Photostream shows anything on AppleTV (it shows 'on' for my iTunes account but 'Zero' pictures found ... despite the >3,000 pictures showing avail in iTunes).
    I also have 'Remote" app on my iPhone 4, with Home Sharing turned on (same Wifi network)... it has a very similar message as the Apple TV and same result that despite all devices having HomeShare 'on' they cannot see each other:  "Remote will automatically find the iTunes libraries and Apple TVs that have Home Sharing turned on using the account xxxx (it lists my correct itunes account name)."

    I solved this by reset of the Wifi (unplug cable and power to both modem and wifi ... wait 60 sec ... plug in modem cable and power ... plug in wifi power and LAN to modem ... restart AppleTV and Mac ... Turn Home Share 'OFF' in iTunes then back "ON" ... it took ~60 sec for the AppleTV to pick up my Mac in computers.

  • My wife and I share an itunes account

    My wife and I share an itunes account, so when I purchase music on my phone it should go to her phone and
    also to her macbook .... how do I set this up to happen?

    On the computer:  Click the iTunes menu (by the apple) >> Preferences >> Store.  Check off the items you want in the Automatic Download section.
    On the iOS device:  Settings >> iTunes and App Stores.  Turn on the items you want under Automatic Downloads.

  • HT4436 we have 5 devices on one itunes account how do I give them each their own icloud account and still share the itunes account?

    we have 5 devices on one itunes account how do I give them each their own icloud account and still share the itunes account?

    You need a unique AppleID for each iCloud account.  So grab some free gmail, hotmail, aol, yahoo or whatever email addresses to make five new AppleIDs.  Now, everybody make an iCloud account for themselves, and keep the existing shared AppleID and password just for use in the iTunes and App Stores.  You can also each use your own unique AppleIDs to make iMessage accounts and keep those separate as well.

  • 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 void this?

    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.

  • My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?

    My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?
    It would be so much easier having seperate accounts but we have hundreds of her purchased songs on my account and she would need to be able to access these from her account. Possible?
    Also, if we bought a song in future we would want to be able to both have access to it.
    Alternatively, what is the easy way to sync two distinctly different contact lists to one iTunes account?
    Thank you in advance.

    FYI: iTunes account (used to make purchases) is not the same as iTunes library (iTunes on your computer with music, movies, etc.).

    Will we have to create a seperate account for her, or can we all have the same one?
    You can but you will not be able to limit what she syncs.
    I would like to avoid 'checking' and 'unchecking' individual songs every time one of us tries to synch our ipods to the library.
    I don't recommend using (only) the checkmarks to select what to sync.
    Each of you can create your own playlists then sync only those playlists.
    Then add/delete from your own playlists to change iPod content.
    The only time I uncheck items is if I rarely/never want to sync them to anything, such as Christmas music or old audiobooks.
    I suggest you each have your own computer login account. Then everyone has their own contacts, calendars, and everything else.
    You and your husband can share an iTunes library and let your daughter have her own.

  • Can my husband and I share purchases on itunes, even if we have different apple ID's? Can we sync each other's devices to our itunes account?

    Can my husband and I share purchases on itunes, even if we have different Apple ID's? Can we sync each other's devices to our itunes accounts? Before we had it so that, he had the itunes account and synced my iphone to it as a named device, but the problem was, when I used to send imessages, it looked like it was from my husband and not me!

    You can set up Messages and Facetime separate from your husband and still use the same iTunes to sync things like music, movies, Apps, etc.
    To do this though, you need to get your own Apple ID. You then use your Apple ID to set up Messages and Facetime under your account. This way your Messages and Facetime calls will come from your account and your husbands from his.
    And you will still be able to sync the devises on the same iTunes account.

  • How to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with one iTunes account

    We recently received iPad 2's for Christmas and was looking for some advice on how to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with One iTunes Account (Apple Id).  I have created or attached other e-mail addresses to our apple id but do not know how to use them on the new devices.  Our home MacBook Pro uses our main apple id for FaceTime.  The iPads have been setup with the main apple id w/o being able to use FaceTime and iMessage.
    Please Help...
    I appreciate the help and support.

    P and V-
    If you are trying to connect to someone with a different Apple ID, I think all the devices should work, but one at a time.
    The problem is when you try to connect between two with the same Apple ID.  Once the calling device tries to make the connection, it finds the second device to be "busy".  That is where each needs to use a different E-Mail address when setting it up.
    On iOS devices, when you press the Home button to exit an App, the App may still be active in the background, even when the device is sleeping.  If FaceTime or iMessage is merely being active that way, it may be enough to "tie up" the E-Mail address.
    From the Home screen, double click your Home button.  You will see a list of recent Apps along the bottom of the screen.  Press and hold on one of them until they start to wiggle.  You will then see a red minus sign on each.  Pressing the minus sign will remove an App from the list, and stop it from working in the background.  (Click the Home button to stop the wiggling, and again to hide the recent Apps.)

  • I have four devices on my itunes account. Can I allocate gift cards to each different device?

  • Can I put all of my families devices under one itunes account

    How do I put all of my families devices under on itunes account?  Will this delete all of the existing music on the devices?  Previously they have been under 2 accounts.
    Thank you

    You can transfer your apps (don't know about "and stuff") from your ipod to your computer. See this article [Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848?viewlocale=en_US] for info on that.
    If there are items on your ipod that are not on your computer, you will need a [third party app|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparisonof_iPodManagers]. I have used CopyTrans in that list, but you can look over what works best for you.
    Once you have everything in iTunes, be sure you back up your old touch, which will happen automatically with a sync. That way when you connect your new one, you will have the option of restoring from your backup.

  • Changing device from one itunes account to another?

    I just got an iphone 5 and when my husband plugged it into the computer he accidently put my phone (device) under his itunes account rather than using my Apple ID.  Is there any way to move my phone to my own account?  Everytime he gets a new app and I sync to the laptop I get everything that he's downloaded or purchased.  Please help!
    In my efforts to "fix" the problem, I deleted the two iphones from his account in the hopes that I could just reconnect the phones and change the apple ID.  Now I can't get them back.  I'm so confused!!

    1) If you are talking about a different itunes store account, just log out of the old one and log into the new one by going to: Settings, Store, Sign out. Then sign in on the different account. Warning, you'll need to log into the original account to update any apps purchased and still loaded on the ipad. THis is done at the update screen in the apps store when updating.
    2) If you are trying to clean off all the data and re-sync it with a new itunes account with new apps and music, pohotos, etc, do the following:
    _Warning: This will reset the ipad to factory specs_:
    Go to Settings, General, Reset, Erase all content and settings.
    Then, just activate and sync the ipad to the new itunes account.
