Share the Timecapsule WIFI
I have a MAC book pro with USB internet connection, can this be shared with my Timecapsule & create a WIFI connection ?
You can try sharing the connection to the ethernet port.. use that as wan to the TC.. and then use the TC for wifi to other clients.. that could work ok.. but 3G routers are not that expensive and much easier to handle. you can just plug the TC into it in bridge.

HT1296 My laptop and iPad share the same wifi.
What configuration is needed to have my webmail delivered to my iPad only?
Webmail is the term used for the web page version of email (versus using an email client). As such, it is not "delivered" to you, you have to log in to the web page to get it.
But if you are talking about email being deliverd to your email client, be it on the iPad or your laptop, it will delivered to all that are configured to receive it. It is totally unrelated to being on the same wifi connection. You could be at Starbucks with your iPad while your laptop is sitting at home and both will get the same email. So, for it to be delivered only to your iPad, you would have to delete your email account from the Mail app (assuming this is the client you are using) on your laptop. -
My wife and I share the iPad. Can we set up separate accounts to log in (like on our Mac)?
My wife and I share the iPad. Can we set up separate accounts to log in (like on our Mac)?
Good question, but I'm 99.9% certain the answer is "no". Here are some considerations:
Think of the heritage of iOS. It really started with iPhones and maybe iPods. These devices cost a whole lot less than a Mac. They are generally not thought of as shared (with exceptions, of course, as is true for you).
Think of the backup process. i-devices typically sync with one iTunes on one computer. How would an i-device with multiple users enstantiate this?
Anyway, all this is to say I'm convinced you cannot do what you're inquiring about. -
My wife and I share the same iTunes account. How do I setup a separate account for her? Can I do it using my iMac?
ThanksUsing More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library
Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data. Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.

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.

I have multiple devices (iMacs, Lap tops, Ipads) all connected to a Nas Drive. Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife and we each have our own apple ID's, Itunes etc, but share the same data on the hard drives? So when she logs in, and sync's her ipads, they will sync with her stuff and when I do the same under my user account, on the same device, my ipads will sync with my stuff?
You can share the same Apple ID for purchasng form the iTunes and app stores without any problems, but you should all used separate iCloud accounts with separate Apple IDs. (You are not required to use the same ID for iCloud and other services as you do for the iTunes store.) This will prevent you from ending up with merged data. You should also use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

Messages to contact also appearing on my wife's Iphone? We share the same Apple ID
Hi - My wife and I share the same Apple ID to sync our iPhone. Ever since I downloaded Messages Beta my wife gets my conversations. What's also happening is when I text her from my iPhone's iMessage, It comes across to her phone as 2 texts. when I text her phone and she texts mine it shows our conversations as if she was replying to herself. All the texts are blue and to the right side of the screen.
I went ahead and uninstalled Messages Bata to see if that fixed my issue. It did not. I got the same exact result, and now when I send it shows a red ! implying it did not send but it really did send. I have also tried to reinstall Messages Beta and use a different Apple ID to send from my Mac but did not fix the issue.
Any Ideas?
Thanks"We share the same ID."
There's your problem. If you/she use a different email address in Settings > Messages > Receive At (on the iPhone), then you should stop receiving each other's texts.
If you want to change the email on the Mac (if you reinstall Messages Beta), open Messages, then click on Messages on go to Preferences.
Then click on the Accounts tab, and look under the text "You can be reached for messages at:" -
My wife and i share the same itunes account but we have separate libaries , can i set her up her own itunes log in to free up my icloud memory.
Hi tomgoggs,
iTunes purchases do not count against your iCloud memory space. See this article for what iCloud is used to store -

My wife and I have different Apple ID's and passwords but I want to share our music library which is on iCloud under my Apple ID. How do I set her up to share the music library that resides on the iCloud under my Apple ID?
You would need to go to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap her ID, sign out, then sign back in with your ID. However, if she has turned on automatic downloads, download previous purchases or signed into an iTunes Match account using her current ID, she would have to wait 90 days from when she first did this to change to another ID. She can, of course, sync your music to her device using iTunes without changing her ID association.

HT201363 Erased ipad to give to my wife now it wont let me activate (we share the same id)
I Purchased a new ipad air for my self and wanted to give my old ipad 3 32gb to my wife (she currently has ipad 16gb with no space). we share the same apple ID.
I backed up my old ipad then erased all settings (I did not log out of the cloud of switch off find my phone). Now when i switch on my old ipad it says this device is logged in and i can clearly see it is my ID but when I enter the password which is correct is states this user cant activate this device.
if I login to Icloud my old device does NOT appear at all in find my phone however when I look at settings the device is displayed (serial No.s match and states it is logged in.
If I check the status of the Ipad it states it is locked.
Please HelpIf you want to sell or give away your iPad, make sure you erase all content and settings:
Go to Settings > General > Reset, then tap Erase All Content and Settings.
This will completely erase your device and turn off iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, Game Center, and other services.
If you're using iOS 7/8 and have Find My iPhone turned on, your Apple ID and password will be required. After you provide your password, the device will be erased and removed from your account so that the next owner can activate it.

My wife and I share the same email address but have separate IPhones. We would like to have each phone individually on "find friends" but cannot do it via email route. How is it done?
make seperate appleID's if you wish to be frinds or if you wish to facetime video chat and if you wish to not recieve the samme imessage msg's unless you turn it off
you can still set both your iphones to use an email address even if both have different appleId's
the appleID is a handle not a link to an email address -

JoeWelcome to the Apple Community.
You can't merge accounts.
You can however share or import content from another library/account using homesharing. -
My wife and I share the same email address and Apple ID. We are not able to send and receive Text Messages to one another. Is the cause of this because we share the same Apple ID? Will we have to set up 2 separate primary email addresses to be able to send and receive Tex Messages to one another? Like I said, we share the same email address and woul like to keep it that way to keep up with our email together. Is there a way to by-pass having to set up 2 primary emaill addresses if this is the problem?
Thanks.go to the settings and turn off imessage
but that don't change the issue that you will never be able to facetime eachtoher
the appleID is really meant as the handle that identify you it was not meant to be shared
but can see that people may want to do not buy apps more then once
