Sharing all contacts between two Apple ID's??

My wife and I were using one Apple ID for a number of years. Then Family Sharing came along. There are some good reasons to use this new feature. So, I got a second Apple ID for my wife. Everything is going well, until we noticed the Contacts on the new Apple ID are missing. It is a new account that why. So, Question, How can I share the complete set of contacts on one Apple ID with a second Apple ID ???

Probably the easiest way to do this is to export them from one account by going to icloud.com as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3606, the import the exported contacts to the other account on iCloud.com as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605.

  • Sharing a shared network variable between two PC's connected to a network

    Sharing a shared network variable between two PC's connected to a network
    Surely this shouldn’t be so difficult! I have a little LabVIEW program running in the background of PC1. The exe’s task is to collect and send OPC variables held on a SCADA system and convert them to shared network variables (as I thought that they would be easy to share over a network, easier than the nasty OPC and DCOM issues). I have PC2 which runs measurement studio and I have created a nice test VB program which either writes or reads the network variables which are on PC1. The PC1 collection software is working perfectly and when I change the values on the SCADA system I can see the network variable change on ‘NI Distributed System Manager’. I When I look at ‘NI Distributed System Manager’ on PC2 I can’t see PC1 on the list and when I use the basic measurement studio code below to read the network variable it times out at the TestVariable.connect() line.
    Ok so what do I need to do to read a shared network variable sat on PC1 from PC2 on the network
    Public Class Form1
    Private WithEvents TestVariable As NetworkVariableSubscriber(Of Double)
    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

    TextBox1.Text = e.Data.GetValue

  • Sync contacts between two account iCloud

    Hi everyone,
    Me and my wife both have iphone. We usually used just one iCloud account, so we had shared calendar, contacts etc. etc. which is very useful for us.
    Since Siri has arrived it begun to create troubles with the contacts, because the contact marked as "me" is the same for both iphones, so on my iphone siri calls me with the name of my wife...
    Now with the new "family" function with iOS 8 i can finally separate the iCloud accounts on our iphones, and still have the same apps, calendar etc. on both of them.
    My problem is with the contacts, we would like to keep the same contacts on both iphones and synched, but i can't do that with the "family" function.
    Anyone can suggest me a way to sync contacts between two account iCloud selecting which information to share?
    Thanks

    Thanks. You said: "When you setup iCloud the On my Mac contacts should've been moved to iCloud I think (can't remember what happened in my case)."
    Actually that does not happen, or at least it didn't happen to me.

  • Can I have a Face Time conversation between two Apple devices using the same Apple ID?

    Can I have a Face Time conversation between two Apple devices using the same Apple ID?

    Yes, you can, but the two devices can't have the same e mail address associated with both.  Each, device needs its own unique e mail ADR.  In your case, the iPod can call your iPhone if you use the phone number, but the iPhone can not call your iPod because it must use the e mail address, and if the email address is the same on both, the iPhone will think it's calling itself, so the call will not go through.

  • How can I remove all content between two tags using Find/Replace regular expressions?

    This one is driving me bonkers...  I'm relatively new to regular expressions, but I'm trying to get Dreamweaver to remove all content between two tags in an XML document.  For example, let's say I have the following XML:
    <custom>
    <![CDATA[<p>Some text</p>
    <p>Some more text</p>]]>
    </custom>
    I'd like to do a Find/Replace that produces:
    <custom>
    </custom>
    In essence, I'd like to strip all of the content between two tags.  Ideally, I'd like to know how to strip the CDATA content as well, to return the following:
    <custom>
    <![CDATA[]]>
    </custom>
    I'd much appreciate any suggestions on accomplishing this.
    Many thanks!

    Thanks much for your response.  I found David's article to be a little thin with respect to examples using quantifiers in coordination with the wildcard metacharacters; however, I was able to cobble together a working expression through trial and error using the information he presented.  For posterity, here’s the solution:
    Find:
    <custom>[\d\D]*?</custom>
    Replace:
    <custom>
    <![CDATA[]]>
    </custom>
    I believe this literally translates to:
    [] = find anything in this range/character class
    \d = find any digit character (i.e. any number)
    \D = find any non-digit character (i.e. anything except numbers)
    *? = match zero or more times, but as few times as possible (i.e. match multiple characters per instance, but only match one instance at a time, or none at all)
    I’m still not sure how to effectively utilize the . wildcard.  For example, the following expression will not find content that ends with a number:
    <custom>.*?[\D]*?</ custom >
    I'm presuming this is because numbers aren't included in the \D metacharacter; however, shouldn't numbers be picked up by the .*? expression?

  • Switching between two Apple IDs - 90 day wait?

    I have been smoothly transitioning between two apple IDs on iTunes for the last year. I have just switched from PC to Mac and suddenly there's a message that states I have to wait 90 days before I can associate another Apple ID with this device. I don't really understand what this means, especially since I've already successfully logged in to both Apple ID accounts in iTunes on my new Mac.  I don't want to wait 90 days every time I buy something from one account before it will let me buy something from the other (is this what this means?)  I'd really appreciate an explanation from the learned Mac-user community.  Thanks so much for your help!

    Thank you, I did find that information myself, but it didn't really make things clearer to me.  Once the 90 days is up will I be able to switch back and forth as I please? Or do I have to wait 90 days every time I want to switch IDs?
    You can switch back & forth now as you please for new purchases (not for redownloading). 90 days is for redownloading.

    Uncheck Automatic Downloads.
    And why wasn't I aware of this wait time on my old PC device?
    You never saw this because Automatic Downloads was not ticked.

  • Can I swap all tags between two songs?

    I downloaded a compilation album but the songs are all mislabeled -- all of the info for song 1 belongs to, say, song 7, and all of the info for song 7 belongs to song 5, and all of the info for song 5 belongs to song 13....  Since it's a compilation album, there are a lot of tags that I would need to edit to correct this (name, year, track number, artist, composer, etc.).  Is there a way to swap *all* tags between two songs?  Even better, is there a way to edit the library info using some sort of text editor instead of the GUI?  Thanks.
    - mb

    Just change the track numbers... Line them up in song name order so they don't jump about as you edit things.
    I have scripts for similar tasks within the same file, e.g. swapping track name with artist, at http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/scripts.asp.

  • Sharing iPhone apps between two accounts on a single mac.

    Firstly, apologies if this topic has been covered many times before, I've tried to look, but can't find the exact answer I need.
    I have recently purchased two iphones and want to use them on seperate apple ID's - I want different iCloud storage for each phone.
    I have a macbook which has two accounts (one for me and one for my wife).  When I login to my account I have access to my itunes account and when my wife logins into her account she has access to her itunes account.
    I have followed the instructions for sharing musics between two users on the same mac - by moving the itunes media folder to the shared folder on my mac.  I have copied everything in that folder (music, movies, apps etc).  I have also set up home sharing as I believe that you can share apps between itunes accounts using it.  Everything seems to have worked ok in terms of her itunes being able to access the music, movies etc, but the apps don't seem to work properly.  I went through the subfolders of the itunes media folder and changed the folder permissions to read and write for everybody (because I was getting a permissions error) and she now has access to the apps that are there (on my itunes account), but the apps that she has downloaded on her phone are not being transferred to the macbook.  I've tried the reset warnings suggestion and that hasn't solved the issue. 
    Am I doing something wrong?  Should the apps folder within the itunes media folder not be moved with the music when transferring to the shared folder?  Any ideas why music and movies sharing is working ok, but not apps?
    Thanks in advance!

    Note that when it says "publicly accessible location", it needs to be a place where everyone has read and write access. The most common such place is the Shared folder in the Users folder.

  • Sharing Keynote documents between two macs.

    I am Sharing Keynote documents between my two macs via wi-fi, so my question , is there a potential problem of data lost when going back and for from one computer to the other. It is very important that no possible problems may happen for important lectures.....
    Thanks

    Ok that sounds good, Both computers should have all the fonts, no music at the moment.
    I was wondering that I had data lost when transferenig keynote documents using usb memory sticks, lost of pictures, the trick that avoid that was compressing the document before placing it into the usb memory stick.....I undertood that was because of the memory stick format. So going from computer to computer through wifi should be fine...just does recomendations that you were saying. Right ?

  • Sharing aperture library between two computers in same house

    How do I go about sharing the same library between two computers in the same house? I would like to take some or all photos around with me on my laptop and be able to have them also at home for use by my family. Will I have trouble with changes and keeping things in sync? Would I locate the library on a portable drive on our home network? Thanks,
    Todd

    cut and dry ???
    are you wanting to constantly move the external around from machine to machine ??? or are you looking for simultaneous access ???
    if you had a library on an external and moved it between computers, it could work ... just be careful to always have the external connected before starting aperture, else it will create a new null library for you ...
    you could have db issues if you tried to have two people access it at once ... i dont believe that the aperture db could handle multi access at once ... not robust enough ... no locking of records, etc ...

  • How do I disable sharing on one of two apple tvs? I do not want to share my library and apps with my ex. Apple tvs are in separate homes

  • Sharing iPhoto Library between Two User Accounts

    Is there any way to fully share a single iPhoto library between two user accounts on one machine (iMac 2.0GHz dual core Intel, 10.5.1, iPhoto '08), without using an external drive (because I don't have one)? By share, I mean each user has full rights and priveledges to the entire library, regardless of who uploaded the pics. Holding down the option key on iPhoto startup does not work because my wife can't access the pics I loaded even though she's pointing to the shared library in a shared folder.

    If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc. then:
    Quit iPhoto in both accounts
    Move the iPhoto Library Folder to an external HD set to ignore permissions. *You could also use a dmg*.
    (Some people have had success putting the library in the Users/ Shared folder. If you do this make sure the file permissions are set to allow read/write access to everyone. But that's unlikely to work on 10.5 because of the way that the permissions have changed with the new OS.)
    In each account in turn: Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting dialogue, select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new library location. From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.
