  • One App   Two iPhones   Different iTunes Accounts

    I currently have an iPhone 5 and I will be upgrading to an iPhone 6. I'm going give the iPhone 5 to my brother. I purchased a TomTom Navigation App and I want the App to be available on both phones but managed through different iTunes accounts. How should I go about doing this, if possible?
    If it isn't possible to do this because the App is linked to my iTunes account, can I, instead, manage my iTunes account on multiple computers? Or is it that one computer can handle multiple devices?
    I read the following two forums but they are not exactly the same questions as mine.
    One APP to Multiple iPods? 
    Can you use apps from one computer/iTunes accounts on multiple iPhones?

    Suppose I authorize another computer to use my current iPhone 5 and sync apps to that computer. Then I get my iPhone 6 and sync my apps to this new phone. Then I change the apple ID on one of the two computers. Would leave the installed apps on both devices? I don't have the new iPhone yet as I'm waiting to get an unlocked GSM version directly from Apple so I can't try this right away.

  • If i remove one of two phones from my plan will it require a new plan? If so, will I lose my unlimited data?

    I need to remove my son's phone from my family plan and I am worried that doing so will cause me to lose my unlimited data.  Does anyone know if my worries are legit?  The 2nd phone is costing me about 30 bucks a month would I be better off just keeping it to prevent updating my plan?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    no, canceling the line will not affect your line/contract; you will have to pay an ETF if your son's line is still under contract, though
    if he wants to take over his line on his own account, you could have him do an Assumption of Liability

  • Two iPhones, 1 iTunes account, 2 iCloud accounts - still getting duplicate texts

    Hi everyone,
    I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1.4, my husband has an iPhone 3 and has finally updated his software to iOS 6.1.4 as well (he hadn't updated it since he bought it years ago). We have the problem of duplicate text messages - my phone now thinks its his phone (ie I've lost my contacts, but have all of his) and when I send him a text, he gets it but so do I. It also comes up on our iPad. I thought it was perhaps an iCloud account issue so made a second iCloud account and logged into that on my phone but it hasn't helped.
    The duplicate messages are driving me crazy - how do I stop them?
    Thanks,
    Sarah.

    I have the same question.  My daughter and I share an apple account which is fine, but now I am getting some of her texts and each time I send her one I get a duplicate?  I thought I messed this up when we tried to Facetime each other and I have deleted all those options.  How do I fix it so I have my own texts and she has her own texts, I don't get duplicate texts but she can still access our I tunes account?  Please help

  • I would like to deauthorize one or two computers from my account, but I need to view them first.  We only have 3 computers in my house, so i think there is a duplicate.  I don't want to deauthorize all to remedy this.

    I would like to deauthorize a computer, but my account won't let me view what computers are authorized.  I'm on windows vista. Is there a way to do this.  I'm afraid to deauthroize and then reauthorize, because I'm not sure how it will affect not only my computer, but my iphone and new ipad 2

    There is no list.  Deauthorizing and reauthorizing, will not acomplish anything, nor will it have any effect on your computer or your devices.
    If you have reached the limit of 5, then you can deauthorize all and the authorize the active computers.

  • One imac, two iphones. one account has current itunes, other side will not download current itunes. Downloaded from apple website, did not help. help?

    We have one imac, two iphones, two imac/iphone user accounts. My account updated itunes and the phone quite easily. The other side will not update itunes  - it shows there is an update available, then says there is not. I tried installing from the apple store. It installed, but did not change the version of itunes active on the computer (we even turned it off and on, a la Windows).  SO we synced his phone with my side - it updated the OS, but otherwise restored the phone to factory settings. (he is not happy). So I tried to restore it from a backup on his side just to see what would happen, and of course it can't because the phone's software is more current that his itunes.
    So we're in a maddening loop.  Factory settings, no updated itunes, no access to the backups.

    The feed is fine. The problem lies with the URL for the media files. I checked the latest episode; the file will play in a browser, and as you say on the iTunes Store; but when subscribing there is an error message that the file requires authentication.
    This would happen if you had password-protected it, but that would also appear when playing in a browser. The use of PHP or similar to serve the files is asking for trouble - sometimes it works, sometimes it upsets either the Store or subscribing or both. In this case it would seem that either the scripting is throwing iTunes and leading it to believe that a password is required (though it's not bringing up the pane asking for one), or your server is reacting differently to requests from the iTunes application to the way it reacts to requests from the Store or a browser, where the protocol is different.
    It's not an iTunes problem. Strictly you should be putting the actual URL of the file in the feed, not a script; and you may need to check your server settings top make sure it allows downloading in iTunes as well as playing elsewhere.

  • How do you remove credit card # from iTunes account

    How do you remove credit card # from iTunes account without entering a new one because added money to account from gift card?

    On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your iPhone then try tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and select 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.

  • How do I merge two valid, purchased iTunes accounts into one so all my music is in same account?

    I have two valid, purchasd iTunes accounts.  Older iPod has some great music, I just got a new iPad and set up second iTunes account, bought some more iTunes items for that account.  Just discovered iCloud.  Now I want to put all my music from both accounts onto the cloud so I can access it on all my apple devices.   Can't seem to add from one account to the other.  Can sign onto the new account wiht my old iPod, but it will not let me sync without erasing all the music on the device.  How can I merge these two accounts into one?
    PS  Makes you wonder how helpful support is when the usernames "Frustrated," "really frustrated," and "Help!!!!" are all taken...lol

    You cannot. iTunes pruchases remian tied to the account they were purchased with.
    I just got a new iPad and set up second iTunes account,
    Why?
    Remove your info from new account, update old account as needed and use that.

  • How do I remove one of the calendars from iCloud but keep it on the iPhone to sync with Outlook by USB and keep the other calendars synced on iCloud ?

    iPhone 5, Macs and iPads at home, Windoze7 system at work. 
    Using iCloud to sync calendars, contacts, etc on all the home devices.  Used USB cable to sync at work with the Windows system, with the Outlook 2010 corporate account (corporate server).  I need only the Outlook calendar to be synced, syncing the contacts created too many problems with duplication, etc.  No need for that.  Worked fine until the latest upgrate to iOS7 and iTunes 11.1.  Used to have a calendar that was not on iCloud and was simply and exclusively syncing between the iPhone and the Windows computer at work. The other 3 calendars synced fine with the macs and iOS devices via iCloud but not with the machine at work - keeping private records private.
    Upon the iOS upgrade, all calendars are now on iCloud.  I am no longer able to remove one - for security too - from the iCloud and sync it with the Windows computer exclusively.  I managed to sync it once on the PC with iTunes by switching iCloud off on the iPhone before connection by USB cable.  Trying it again, it tells me that it will erase all items on the Outlook account (the "more than 25% of your records are going to change" alert) and won't add or modify any.  I stopped the sync in time...
    Tried on the iCloud site for a solution to remove the calendar, nothing.
    There is no iCloud setup on this corporate computer - no access permitted. The USB cable connection is the only solution and up to the upgrade of the iOS this went seamlessly.
    Any solution out there?
    Thanks
    Vladski

    I share a similar situation (usb iTunes sync with Outlook with my corporate laptop; personal calendar on icloud).
    With IOS7, at first, iTunes/Windows does not propose Outlook sync anymore. I need to switch off calendar from iTunes to enable usual usb sync with Outlook. I had to sync it twice while checking "replace iphone data" to get a stable behaviour (like before) IOS7.When I try to re-enable icloud calendars, it proposes me to merge them...
    I did not test merging so far...
    IOS7 and iTunes 11.1 are not completely polished ;-)

    How can I remove credit card from itunes account?

    I'm not home right now, so don't have iTunes here. I am basing this on having to do this a few days ago, as well as pictures from Google Images, so things may have different names now...
    Store (dropdown at top of iTunes screen)>View my account>Edit Payment Information>In the list of types of credit cards, the one at the far right says "None." Click that.
