Previously purchased tab on iPad shows purchases from multiple accounts?

We share a home account across 2 iPads. On 1 iPad if you look at previously purchased apps, it shows apps from another old
iTunes account I had, but no longer use for current purchases.
If an iPad is signed in with one account, why is it showing previously downloaded apps from a different iTunes account?
I would think it would only show apps for the currently logged in id?
Only thing I can think of is the 1 iPad has an app that was previously purchased with the older account, and copied over via
Home sharing possibly.

To clarify, if I log into each apple account seperately in iTunes on the PC, the 1 application shows under previous purchased Apps on both accounts. BUT it was only purchased under 1 account.

Cover flow albums show songs from multiple albums

I love my iPod classic. the only issue I'm having is that when reviewing some albums via the coverflow feature, about 5 albums shows songs from multiple albums. they play correctly. It appears just the listing is messed up. I've tried deleting, adding the albums back to the library and resyncing, but it's still happening. Anybody seen this?

Try *One cover, too many tracks* below:
*HowTo: Grouping Tracks Into Albums*
Excuse the long post, but hopefully covering all the bases (that I can think of) will help you fix the other issues you are likely to run into as you try to organise your iTunes library.
*Use an album friendly view*
iTunes will let you sort music on many columns, some of which are unlikely to group albums together or put the tracks in their normal order. The most useful order for editing the library is probably *Album by Artist*. If you're not already there, select the list view and click on the column heading for Artist until it reads Album by Artist.
*One cover, too many tracks*
The iPod (and iTunes to a lesser extent) conflates two or more albums with the same title, most obviously with *Greatest Hits*. On the iPod this can result in one album acting as a combination of two or more. Selecting any cover gives all the tracks of all albums with the same title. The workaround for this "Greatest Hits" bug is to give each album a unique title - I tend to go for *Album - Album Artist* as this reads clearly in the iTunes browser. Alternatively you could use the wording as it appears on the cover or append different numbers of spaces for each different album. Somewhat oddly, setting different values for Sort Album doesn't work.
*Missing Artist or Album not with others by same artist*
iTunes relies on the Gracenote CDDB database when identifying CD's. This often marks collections or anthologies of an artist's work as a compilation. In iTunes, however, the compilation flag has the logical function of grouping together tracks with the same album name, but different artists on each track, e.g. "Now That's What I Call Metal 666!". These compilations are then all grouped together at the end of cover flow. Most of us however, would expect "Greatest Hits" albums to be listed with the other albums by the same album artist. For albums which are essentially by a single album artist or group it is best to set the appropriate value for the album artist and clear the compilation flag.
*One album, too many covers*
For true compilations, where each track is by a different artist, the answer is to set the compilation flag to true and enable the iTunes preference to *Group compilations when browsing*. If the album is not a compilation however, any tracks which list guest artists may be treated as separate items. Filling in the Album Artist field is enough to link things in iTunes. Sadly, however, the iPod ignores the Album Artist field when grouping albums so this is only a partial solution. You can simply mark the entire album as a compilation which seems to be the way iTMS handles it, however that's not an ideal fix. Short of waiting for Apple to address this issue (and as far as I can tell it goes back to the 1st gen. of iPods) we need a workaround. What I do is to put any additional artist info. in square brackets after the song name. E.g. *Track \[Feat. Guest\]* and then set *Artist=Album Artist* for each track. For anthologies where the Album Artist is credited as part of another group, e.g. for Cream tracks on an Eric Clapton anthology, I use *Track \[As Group\]*. For a track where the main Album Artist doesn't receive a credit, e.g. the first track of the Slim Shady LP credited to Jeff Bass, I just set the track name to *Track \[Guest\]* while still setting the artist to the album artist. N.b. I use square brackets to indicate that this is information about the track as distinct from the song title and also use this style for Mix/Live/Bonus info.
*One album, still too many covers*
iTunes may split albums into two or more sections if some tracks from the album have different values for Artist, Album Artist, Album, No. of Discs or Part of a Compilation. Tiny differences such as trailing spaces, accented characters or variants of symbols can sometimes be quite hard to spot. The iPod is also more sensitive to case variations and may split or reorder an album that looks okay in iTunes. Normally overtyping the desired value for each shared field will complete the grouping of the album into one entity. Occasionally, however, this method seems to fail. When this happens I've found that you can force every field to update properly by adding some extra text - e.g. a trailing X, which once applied seems to complete the joining of the tracks into one album. Once this has happened the extra data can be removed and the album should remain properly grouped.
*Tried that, there are STILL too many covers!*
The Sort Artist, Sort Album & Sort Album Artist fields can be used to override the normal sort order. For example iTunes automatically drops leading articles (a/an/the) so "The Beatles" are arranged under "B" instead of "T". Occasionally different tracks from the same album can have different values in these sort fields which can also break up the grouping. Making the sort columns visible in iTunes can help with spotting & correcting such problems.
*One cover for multi-disc album*
Multi-disc albums are often listed as *Album (CD1)* for CD 1, *Album (CD2)* for CD 2 etc. To display these properly using just one cover, each disc should have the correct *Disc X of Y* values set, and then the entire album should be given the single title Album. Being somewhat obsessive I also renumber the tracks sequentially, working backwards from the last track (so that no two tracks ever have the same number) until I reach disc 1. BTW You can still give the individual discs different artwork should it be relevant so that the correct artwork will be displayed as the album progresses.
*One artist, many names*
With some artists, particularly classical composers, you should be aware of alternative representations of their names. E.g. 2Pac vs. Tupac. The menus will work best if for each artist you standardise on just one form of their name. E.g. make a choice between Mozart, W.A. Mozart or Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and then apply it consistently. For classical music I tend also to use the Composer as the Artist & Album Artist and either discard the performer details or place these into the Comments field.

Will apps from multiple accounts sync on one device

When I first started using iTunes I was too young to have an iTunes account so I used my mums to make purchases to sync to my iPad via the computer. A few years later I had created my own account when I got my laptop mainly to purchase movies to watch and music for my iPod however the email I used I no longer use as it keeps getting spammed.
I recently purchased a new iPad via the apple store(waiting for delivery) which I made a new apple account for what I am wondering is that as I did all of my app syncs for my old iPad via my computer all my apps are on my iTunes on my laptop however I was wondering if I were able to sync up my apps, music and new apps to my new device via my laptop without issue as they have come from multiple accounts.

As long as there are five or fewer Apple IDs involved, you won't have a problem syncing the content. Note that the applications can only be updated from the Apple ID used to download them, and this may also apply to in-app purchases.

Can I access music from multiple accounts on one cpu?

Can I access music from multiple accounts on one cpu

Here's one option: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12366
But frankly you'd be better off creating unique user accounts on the computer and having seperate iTunes libraries for each user as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1495

Receiving Email from Multiple Accounts?

Is there some way of receiving email from multiple accounts in one centralized account? It was automatic with my Blackberry. Having to switch back and forth between accounts is a pain, and potentially dangerous if driving. If the iPhone email app can't do it, is there a third-party app that can?
Thanks.

No, there's not. Email accounts are kept separate on the iPhone.
Having to switch back and forth between accounts is a pain, and potentially dangerous if driving.
As opposed to just reading your email all accumulated into one inbox while driving - that's perfectly safe, right?? I'm sure not having to switch from one email account to another while driving frees up your attention for more important things, such as reading the newspaper or doing a crossword puzzle.
Please consider adding a location to your profile so I know which roads to avoid...

Access Canon MX860 from multiple accounts on iMac over WiFi

I bought a Canon PIXMA MX860 yesterday and set it up using my account on our iMac running 10.5.6. The printer is connected over WiFi. I can print and scan from my account.
When I try to print from another account on the iMac (my wife as an account and we have a guest account) the printer queue says "Printer is currently off-line". I sent a message to Canon, they told me to set permissions for "Everyone" to Read & Write on the Library folder. I tried this for:
/Macintosh HD/Library/Printers/Canon
and all enclosed items. Still doesn't work.
Has anyone else set up the MX860 to print from multiple accounts on a computer? Did you have to do anything beyond the procedure specified by Canon?
Thanks!
Matt

Hello Matt,
I don't understand why Canon support would have got you to change permissions on the Canon folder. This is not normally required.
I have the MP980 connected via wireless, and I can print to it from my Admin account and a standard account I made up just to check. What account type do you have set for the missus?
I also would have thought that the printer off-line message would have had more to do with her account not being able to access the network connection, rather than not being able to access the core Printers folder.
If using her account, you open the Print Queue and select the Utility icon, and then set the Canon IJ Printer Utility to network, does the MX860 display? And if you select it, can you peform any of the Maintenance functions?
Also, if you connect the MX860 directly to the Mac via USB, are you able to print to it using her account?

Overtime I removed them from my iPad, hadn't used them in a while. Wanted to try one of them again. Went to the purchase tab in the iPad App Store, none of them are listed. Either in installed or not on this iPad. When I go to the apps in the App Store it has a price tag not a cloud with down arrow tag. I read each apps description to see if the version I downloaded was removed and replaced with this new version that has to be bought again, no mention of such. No mention from reviews of repurchase complaints. So am I out of luck? If an app is removed from the App Store by the developer, is it also removed from my account?

If I were you I'd talk to Apple Customer Service. They have been very helpful to me in the past. You could also try and contact the developers.

How can I delete a purchase (Mavericks) that has not downloaded from my account?

How can I delete a purchse that has not yet downloaded (Mavericks) from my account? I contacted App Store support and my responder claims to have deleted Mavericks from myaccoount. He didn't; it is still there, under the purchases tab-in the cloud. Thank you.

Hi Dah-veed
Thanks for your response. But it doesn't make sense. Mavericks wouldn't download, and although I decided that I wasn't ready for it yet (incompatibility issues), I would like to be ale to get it (OSX) in the future, and if it shows as 'purchased', I won't be able to 'start over' fresh.

Safari tabs in iPad Air different from older versions?

I realized that the tabs does not show for my iPad Air safari. Instead, a ... icon appears on the right side of each tab, which requires me to click on it before being able to view my tabs. Any idea how to revert it back to the good ole tabs where I can see all my tabs in 1 go?

1, no, iPads bought in the UK will come with a UK plug. All you need is a plug adapter for it, you don't need a convertor.
2, warranty isn't international. If it's a wifi-only model then you might be ok to get it serviced in Greece if you have a problem - but you may have to return it to the UK for service.
3, from Apple no - does your country have import and/or customs taxes ?

Showing messages from multiple selected folders (including if any of the quick filter tool is used)

When I selected multiple folders, the messages pane only contains messages from the first selected folder. How can Thunderbird show messages from all selected folders instead? I can't find anything in the docs nor any extension capable of doing this. I'm used to this feature when I use KMail2.

Nope, not what I want. I don't want any searching, as simple as showing messages from ALL selected folderS, merged in one view.

Listening to music pruchased from multiple accounts on the iPT

When I snyc my iPT to my mac while logged into my iTunes apple account, I have no issue playing purchased tunes on the iPT. But when my girlfriend logs into iTunes with her account and I plug my iPT into the Mac, I can no longer play the music already loaded on my iPT that I purchased with my account. Could it be that you can only listen to music from one account at a time on the touch? Or do I need to be authorized with both accounts at once while syncing to then play off of the iPT? I have not had this issue with prior iPod generations.

Thanks for the reply... in my case this would be done by the active synch process so no GUI form is required. I will be getting a list of application ID for the user by LDAP AS. One i get it i will have to parse it and get the list of application user id. I am passing those ID;s to a workflow where I am forming the resource name as you mentioned
for example:
If i get user1#user2#user3 from AS i am separating them based on # using split and getting 3 different user id;s
now i am forming a string with the resource name and passing it to the sub process in which i am checking out the user object, setting the user attributes and checking in the new view.
user1#LDAP
user2#LDAP|1
user3#LDAP|2
Problem ; When i run this user1 is getting created in LDAP but user2 and user3 are not. There entry is getting created in IDM.
When I open the IDM object I get a yellow triangle (warning) and if I open the user object and hit save button IDM creates the user account on the LDAP.
any help for further solving this problem would be appreciated.
Regards,

Checking email from multiple accounts (yahoo, excite, lycos, aol...)

Hello,
Does anybody know any software that checks multiple accounts like yahoo, excite, aol, etc.???
Thanks.

You get e-mails just fine, but do you have rights to log into the e-mail server at myfirstandlastname.com? If you can do that (check with your hosting ISP to find out if they will let you), then you can just set up the iPhone to use that e-mail server to send your mail. It's possible to set up an iPhone IMAP account to get mail from gmail, but use a separate non-gmail SMTP server to send outgoing mail, all within the same iPhone e-mail account.
If you can get this working, then you won't need to mess with reply-to headers. Your e-mail will not only look like it got sent from myfirstandlastname.com -- it actually WILL be sent from there and all replies will automatically go there and then be forwarded as usual to your ATT/Yahoo address. No one will know that ATT/Yahoo is involved, and both your sent and received e-mail will show up in the same single e-mail account on the iPhone.
I do this all the time with my e-mail. My account is really at gmail, but the e-mail address says it came from mycollege.edu. My old college offers me an alumni forwarding-for-life account. They only forward mail, though; they don't hold it. They do also run an SMTP server, though, and that's what I use to make my outgoing e-mail look as if it came from mycollege.edu.

Sending Email from Multiple Accounts, not just one.

I have 3 email accounts set up on my iPhone, 1 Gmail, 2 two POP accounts.
For example if I get an email from Gmail, I check it in the phone and hit reply it goes out, from Gmail.
If I view an email in another POP account (NONGMAIL) and hit reply, the reply is sent from my GMail address. What gives?
If you reply to a message from another account shouldn't it go from that account? I don't want to be responding to work emails with my Gmail address.
Does the iPhone only support 1 account to send email? I tried changing the default account that did nothing using the mail client. Anyone else have this issue.

I'm having my issue. I have a gmail and an IMAP account set up on my phone.
When I have my default mail set to my gmail account, and I go into either inbox of my iphone's email application and send to a third email address, the emails appear to be coming from my gmail account.
When I change my default mail to be my IMAP account, the email STILL appears to be coming from my gmail account, no matter which account I send from.
The punchline is that, with either account set to default and sending from either account, the copy that I BCC to myself ends up being sent to BOTH email accounts.
Any idea what's going on?
