Same question for the "2 iPhones in one account".....How do I change the name. My iPhone is showing my wife's iPhone name when I am syncing it. Why is that? I know about using one iTunes account....But how do you change the name w/o erasing your data?
Hi....How do you change the name? When I sync my iPhone, it shows my wife's name on it?
Unfortunately it is not doing it....
Let me give more details..We have 3 iPods and 2 iPhone4....I recently purchased the iPhone4 and when we connected it..It was already reading my wife's iPhone4..We went to the Apple Store at the Grove today and was told to de-authorize the system and connect my iPhone4 back and I should be able to change the name.
Nothing happened..Right now, I clicked on RESTORE settings...and it is uploading a new iPhone update.

You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
Some users have reported as many as 8 or 9 attempts were necessary before success.
If the issue persists...
Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
Be sure to make an appointment first... -
Will not let me change my alternate email address...says it's being used by another account. Don,t know what I have done.
It probably really is being used by another account. That account holder may be you, or it may have been an Apple ID used at one time in the past, which again may have been you. Doesn't matter which. Once it's used, it can no longer be used by anyone, ever again.
By "already in use" it means that email address might be an Apple ID, or an "alternate email address" associated with any Apple ID that has not been deleted from that Apple ID, or a "rescue email address" for an Apple ID that also has not yet been deleted. Therefore if you have another Apple ID go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and using the "Manage your Apple ID" button, check your account for alternate email addresses. If that email address is present, deleting it will make it available to use for an Apple ID.
Rack your brain for any other Apple IDs you may have used in the past. -

I just bought a Mac Book Pro and the Appstore show one upgrade of iPhoto (9.2.1). I started a section with my Apple ID (the account that I have I use to iTunes) but when I try to update it says that there are upgrades available for other accounts and that I have to upgrade using the account that I used to buy iPhoto. What do I have to do to upgrade iPhoto?

I want to use 1 itunes account but sync 3 different iphones, 2 for the kids and 1 for me. So I would like to have different programs, songs, apps etc for each phone. What is the easiest way to do that
Agreed heather. Also, if you have three users on the same account how do you keep phone calls and messages from going to all three phones?

How can I use different iTunes accounts on one iPad?
How can I use different iTunes accounts on one iPad?
You can't, well not easily anyway. The iPad is not meant as a multi account device.
You can Sign Out of your iTunes account in Settings->iTunes and App Stores->Apple ID->Sign Out
However if you sign in with another ID and then download past purchases with it you will lock out the previous ID for 90 days. Which means it will not be able to be used on the iPad for 90 days. -
i want my credit card off of itunes account. my kids use their itune cards but for some reason my credit card keeps getting charged
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 an iOS device (iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch) then try tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store (Settings > Store on iOS 5 and below) and selecting 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
Changing payment info : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
If you don't get the 'none' option then do you owe iTunes anything : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366 ? -
Please help me!!! Right now i stay in Malaysia but i use USA itune account for buy an apps. Here ive screwed up because of my payment were decline. Any help guys!
If you've had it for less than a year, then it's still under warranty. Take it to an Apple store or an authorized service facility. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434

After going for a few years without using my iTunes account I bought an iPhone and am trying to access the old songs I purchased. The username and password worked, but I can't locate those songs. Have they been deleted?
Hello Bennett,
The following article provides a comprehensive guide to locating and downloading your past purchases, should they be available for download.

I can not get apps that cost $. I can get songs and free aps but not those that cost $. I have funded iTunes account. When I try to buy an app it refers me to this chat/community site. Can anyone help.
Does it refere you to this site, or iTunes store support? I would think you need to contact iTunes store support, not other users in this user-to-user forum. Click the Contact Us link at the bottom right on this page.

HI my partner used my apple id and email address when setting up his iPhone so when he turned on iCloud our phones merged!! How do we undo this? Can he still use my iTunes account with a different Id and can he change the email on his phone without losing information? Also iPad is linked too, the family uses this and I would like to keep my phone separate! At the moment nothing is sacred! Please help! We are not very good with computers!!
Several things here so let me attempt to clarify.
For iCloud the reason the contacts where removed from he other device is because you updated your contacts, in this case deleted them, and then iCloud updated the other device to match. By deleting the iCloud account on the device it will stop the device from using that iCloud account and therefore nothing will change on the other device. By using a seperate Apple ID you can still use the features of iCloud, Find My iPhone comes to mind, without your content (contacts, message etc.) merging with the other device
For iTunes, you cannot use two Apple IDs for one account however if you use the same account iTunes on your computer will keep the content on each device seperate very nicely. You can also configure the settings for iTunes and the App store on each device to keep the content from automatically downloading to the other device. What I meant by share apps and music is this. What happens if you find a game, lets say Minecraft, that you really like and it cost, as Mincraft cost, $6.99USD. You buy it and play for a while and then you realize that your husband really likes the game as well. If you both use the same Apple ID for iTunes he can download the $7.00ish game to his device at no additional charge. If you use seperate Apple IDs for iTunes well... it look like he will also be paying for the game to have it on his account. Same goes for Music and Movies
I hope that clears things up. Let me know if you have anymore question. -
I just got my replacement phone from Warranty. The phone was on for just 2 hours and it crashed. I was told that motorola knows about this "possible" issue. I got a new sim, hard reset, If it can be done I did it. They are now sending me the same phone again. Number 3. I would hope this one doesn't crash but I rather have a different phone so I can enjoy using my account. The phone's most recent error was today. " Unfortunately, the process com.motorola.widget.circlewidget3d" has stopped. At least the error message works and it's polite. I told tech this and they could not answer my question or help me other then "let's do a hard reset" My warranty replacement is coming on Monday. Let's hope this one works. Anyone else havinbg the same problem. it says "such and such as stop working" on all sorts of stuff! Help! I want my iPhone Back!
I just did a google search on this issue. OMG, I got a ton of videos on this or similar issues. Each one says in some way to clear the cache, reset the data, etc. Why in the world would this continue to happen and they not do a fix that resloves this without having to lose or stop what your doing. This is a very long and constant issue it seems with Android phones as there must have been pages and pages of what I now call "Unfortunately" So I am going to pray that Verizon helps me out and gets me away from this issue and helps me go back to iPhone or try the Samsung.

While listening to a podcast on my iPhone I can e-mail the podcast ID to share it with someone else. The email contains the url for the specific podcast. So you would assume that you could put that url into iTunes and it would take you to the podcast. This used to work but no longer. Months ago when I would e-mail myself the url all I had to do was click on the link in the e-mail and it took me right to the specific podcast in iTunes. Now it only opens iTunes and I can't figure out how to find the specific one. What good is the e-mail tab on the iPhone if it doesn't connect you to the podcast you sent?
Same here. I just posted a question too.
