Sharing between my iPhone, my wife's iPhone and her iPad2
My wife and I both have an iPhone and separate itunes accounts. This Christmas she will be receiving a new iPad2. We also have an Apple TV2 that we currently have set up with home sharing to my PC. I am confused as to get all content to be shared between all three devices and further into the Apple TV2.
If the Apple Tv is being shared with my PC and my iPhone, can we also share it with my wife's iPhone and her new iPad2? If so how do I do that. If I remember right, we can only set up one shared iten with the apple tv, is this correct?
Basically, if possible, how do I get all 4 items (2 iPhones, 1 Apple TV2 and one iPad2)? How can this be done if my wife has a different iTiunes account than I?
Please advise...
Thanks,
Mike

Can I use home sharing between my iPhone and iPad? Or do I need to use a computer?
I want to use home sharing between my iPhone and Ipad. So I can use the remote app. But I can't get it to work
You can use it to share the library on your computer to the iPad, not the other way around.
On the computer, set up homesharing in the advanced menu. On the iPad go to settings > music. -
I am trying to set up home sharing between my iphone 4s and mac which is running itunes 11. Both are connected to my home wifi network and using the same apple id but on the iphone app it says 'Turn on Home sharing in iTunes on your computer or apple tv using account ***
Does anybody have suggestions as to why this is the case?Understanding Home Sharing - Support - Apple

How can I use home sharing between our iphones, so that we can create playlists with songs from both of our libraries? We share a Macbook Pro (separate accounts) and each have the new iphone, but when I have my iphone and try to create a new playlist, I can only grab songs from one account. Is there a way to create a playlist using both accounts since we are sharing?
Does it have to be created within iTunes first on our Mac?The short answer: because Home Sharing isn't designed for sharing apps, and apps aren't designed to be shared.
The longer answer: Think of it like this...
You download some music in iTunes. With Home Sharing, another user can listen to it by streaming it over the network. But the data itself is on your computer. If you turn off the computer or take it off the network, the other user can't access it.
But if you send another user the app, they aren't just streaming the data- they installed it on their iOS device. Because they weren't the one that purchased it, such a transfer could easily be considered "piracy" or "stealing," and nobody likes that (least of all, Apple).
When iTunes sees this app, it obviously recognized it, as if saying, "Hey, how did you get this app on your device, if I have no record of you purchasing/downloading it from the iTunes store?"

is there a way to stop sharing apps between my iphone and my daughters ipad...we share the same email and itunes account.
You can keep the same Apple ID for purchases, but set up her own iCloud account for email and syncing.
You can easily and effectively use the same ID for purchases.
What you do is use the apple ID you have been using for app/book/movie/music purchases. In Settings > Store, make sure you are using your usual apple ID.
Then, set up an icloud (@me.com) account for you on your phone, and one for your daughter on her phone. In Settings > iCloud, make sure each of you are using your new iCloud accounts, and not your Apple ID.
Also, in Settings > Messages > Receive At, make sure you are using your iCloud accounts
This way, all of your purchases are using one account, and you can effectively use iCloud. -
How do I sync my email between my iPhone and iPad?
How do I sync my email between my iPhone and iPad?
A razmee209 said, set up your email in settings on both devices.
iPhone email will always be up to date.
The iPad will update when it has internet connection. If it is a wifi only iPad, it will only update when connected to wifi, but will do so automatically. -

I wish to use my ipad regularly as a sat nav in my car. Would I definitely need a cellular Ipad or would tethering between my iphone and ipad work just as well ?
I would suggest that u get the cellular wifi model because it has a built in gps when there is no cellular coverage the gps will still work as it gets it signal directly off the satellite when ur tethering your phone to your iPad on the wifi model only I'm not too sure if it will work if u have no cellular coverage someone may more info on this subject.

The difference between an iphone and an ipod touch?
i want to know if the difference between an iphone and an ipod touch is just that the iphone is like a phone that has internet and is a phone. or what else is it?
The iPhone includes the same as an iPod Touch but also includes a phone, a camera, and a GPS radio.
In addition to having internet access via wi-fi, the iPhone also has internet access via the cellular network, so as long as you have cellular reception with the iPhone, you have access to the internet in addition to having access via an available wi-fi network. -

Why doesn't iChat synch between my iPhone and iPad and iMac ?
I am using iChat on my iMac but the messages won't synch between my iPhone and iPad even though I am signed into my iCloud account on all three devices
HI,
It seems that in Messages Beta you could create a "Start Date" if all old messages were removed from the iOS devices.
It seems no different in Messages. (I used this Method during the Beta period)
Others have reported that turning the Phone Off and On again also creates a "Start Point"
(The two methods are mutually exclusive if you do the above first).

How can I share photos between my iphone and ipad?
I want to automatically share photos between my iPhone and iPad. I use iCloud and I setup Photo Stream but my photos are not moving from one device to the other. My goal is to have all my photos on both devices- automatically. How can I accomplish this?
Thank you!Photos will Not go between iPad & iPhone..they have to go thro' iCloud as a provider or sync via your computer individually...you need Wireless on both or a direct USB connection..
On each iPad and iPhone you can initialize via the Summary/Photos when they are connected via iTunes..
