One account for two iPads, different content

Hello everyone.
I've got a question - I recently bought an iPad2 in addition to my first iPad, and I'm wondering if it is possible to use the same account (and the same PC) for both iPads, while having a different set of apps, photos, music and other stuff on them. If it is possible, then how it is done?
Also, a related question - my first iPad is set to auto-sync with iTunes, and I'm tired of it copying useless stuff on connect. If I set it to manual sync, will I lose all my purchases for that iPad? And if I set my second iPad to manual sync, is it possible to manually sync only the important things that I don't want to lose, while ignoring, for example, all the free apps?

I'm wondering if it is possible to use the same account (and the same PC) for both iPads, while having a different set of apps, photos, music and other stuff on them
Yes
how it is done?
Just chose what you want to sync to each device when connected to iTunes.
f I set it to manual sync, will I lose all my purchases for that iPad?
Of course not.  Why would that happen?
is it possible to manually sync only the important things that I don't want to lose,
You can tell iTunes to sync whatever you want.
I suggest you read the manual:

  • Icloud mail out on one account for two days in texas

    Does anyone know what is wrong with icloud mail? My account is fine, husband's has not worked for two days.  We are in the Dallas, Texas area.

    This is a second day of no icloud service. Completely unacceptable! I've been an apple guy since 1985 but this is going to send me away. They want the iphone and ipad to be business tools - then it has to have back up systems in place. These are not toys to us! They had better not brag about icloud services at the announcement today - and they had better address the problem up front and admit to it at the event! It's all over the world and must be far more than the 1%. If that's the case - then they're just lying about the extent - which is really not cool.
    Fix it now!

  • Two accounts and home share or one account with two iPads?

    I am in college and I have an iPad II but I am getting an iPad II for a course to use this semester. Should I set up another itunes acct or use the one I already have?

    ...my son-in-law who promptly set up a second admin account.
    So if the first Admin account still exists (you can have more than one account with Admin priveleges) its password will still be valid. Also from within that first Admin account, you can delete the second account created by your son-in-law, if you wanted to do that.
    Any software he installed should be in Applications and will still be accessible to all other accounts.
    Also be aware you can reset your son-in-laws Admin password as outlined here.
    OS X: Changing or resetting an account password
    That last option may be desirable.

  • Credit management - one customer for two company, different credit limit

    hi,
    customer A in company 1000 and 2000. for example the total credit limit is $10000 for these two companies, customer A with individual limit 6000 in company 1000 and 4000 in company 2000. If i create sales order 1 with value is $7000, then message will  be displayed. however if i create sales order 2 with value $35000 , no message is dispalyed. Is it possible to display message is the total credit limit is over but not individual limit?
    And if i create a new customer , and create a sales order with over credit limit and the message is displayed when I save the sales order, but the value is not upated in credit master before i release Sales order. it only happen for the first time i create customer. pls advice
    thanks

    Hello Jo Jo,
    it is not possible to check the sales order created in one company against the total
    credit limit for the customer . The system checks (in standard) always against the
    credit limit maintained for assigned company. The only one way could be to develop your own credit check (OVA8 - userexit 1, 2 or 3).
    The part with the credit blocked sales order is correct: if the sales order is credit blocked, it does not update the open credit values, as the credit value will be calculated according the confirmed quantities and the confirmed quantities will be removed in the sales order (in standard) due the credit block. When you release the order in VKM1 or VKM3, the ATP runs and creates the confirmed quantities - as the result the order updates the credit values in FD32.
    I hope this information helps you.
    Best regards,
    Lela

  • HT1203 Can I share one iTunes account for my iPad and two I phones? If so, how can I get the purchased apps and music on all three devices? Do I need a home computer,

    Can I share one iTunes account for my iPad and two I phones? If so, how can I get the purchased apps and music on all three devices? How do I sync all the devices to have the same music and apps?

    You can set up an iCloud account on each one (the SAME iCloud account using the same AppleID on each) and then sync via iCloud.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5262\
    However, an iCloud backup nor sync contains purchased content - that is available for redownload from the iTunes and App stores (so no need to waste iCloud space storing it for you).
    So, for purchased content, you will have to download it on each device - just use the same AppleID and download each item on each device.
    Without a computer to aid the sync'ing, downloading the purchased content on each device is the only way.
    P.S  audiobooks cannot be re-downloaded once purchased (all other content can be), so without a computer to save, store and move the audiobook files around, you will only be able to put those on one device - the one you first purchase it on.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

  • How can I associate 2 appleids with one account or use a different Appleid for imessage as described in another post?

    How can I associate 2 appleids with one account or use a different Appleid for imessage as described in another post?
    I have rejoined the iPhone community, not with one iPhone but with two. My wife agreed to move from the unenlightened!
    I have set up both under my apple account and want to keep it that way. But I do not want iMessages going to both phones. I would like separate message queues but share all apps and other purches from the store.
    I have created a separate AppleID for her but under Settings>Message>Receive At (it currently says 2 addresses) > ... will not allow me to change the current eMail address and when I add hers (her appleid) it errors out. The only thing I can do in the Apple ID field is to manage my account and not change it to hers.
    How can I have 2 iPhones (and my iPad) on the same account but have separate identies?
    Thanks,
    LpGrumpy

    1. Yes. Restart with the Option key held down as needed.
    2. No, it won't be a problem.

  • Hi, I have apple account/password on laptop but can't use the same ID etc on new Ipad.  On my account it says ID is only for 1 system.  I really want only one ID for both Ipad and laptop. Thanks

    It seems that you have used the AppleIDs to "Purchase" your devices, which marries the two for all time and eternity.

    You can use the same apple id for two separate phoones to share apps/music, however you would need a separate apple id for both phone for imessage/facetime/icloud.

  • If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well?  I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

    If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well?  I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

    No, it only mirrors changes to synced data.  This includes mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, safari bookmarks, notes, iWork documents and data, and photo stream photos (assuming you choose to sync all this data).  Changes to iTunes data such as music, apps, podcasts, etc., are not synced using iCloud.  In your example, if you delete an app from one device it will remain on the other until deleted there too.

  • In my family we have 3IPhones 4S, one IPhone5, one IPad3, one IPadMini and two IPad 4. Is it possible to use the same energieadapter for all of those ?

    In my family we have 3IPhones 4S, one IPhone5, one IPad3, one IPadMini and two IPad 4. Is it possible to use the same energieadapter for all of those ?

    Yes but the iPhone chargers will struggle to charge the iPads ,they need more power than the iPhone chargers produce and with an iPad will charge VERY slowly
    The iPad chargers whether 10w or 12 will happily charge all your devices and Apple confirms the compatibility on the relevant web page.

  • How do I get music and games which I purchased for my daughter through my iTunes account onto her iPad mini  but at the same time set up a separate iTunes account for her iPad?

    My daughter  used to use my old iPod and all the music and games that she wanted went through my e-mail/iTunes account.  She has moved onto an iPad mini but this is still in my account.  I want to set up an e-mail and iTunes account for her so that my iPhone doesnt get jammed up with all her stuff.  If I do this I think that all the stuff which I've bought will be lost to her.  How can I get round this?

    Apple devices can hold protected content from up to five different accounts, however updating apps purchased over more than one account (as far as I'm aware) requires signing in and out of each account. You may be better off continuing to use one account for your family, as I do, but disabling the options on each device for the automatic download of purchases made on the account, and in iTunes, the automatic inclusion of new apps when syncing from the library to the device.
