Sharing contact info with separate Apple ID

How can I sync the contact information in the iCloud with a user with different Apple ID?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Add your iCloud account to theirs as a secondary account in system preferences (settings) > mail, contacts and calendars.

How do I stop iOS8 sharing Contact info with Facebook?

Every time I make a change in Contacts, my iPhone tries to send the information to Facebook. Also, my personal (Me) information in Contacts has little blue Facebook linking tags throughout. Here's the thing - I never specifically set this up and I don't want it. It is a breach of my privacy. But for the life of me, I can't find how to disable this function anywhere within Settings nor within the Facebook App.
Please, can someone tell me how to disable this functionality?

@Don Kirk
Try the steps below to help you out with your issue:
Removing Facebook Contacts from iPhone
One of the easiest ways to remove or hide the Facebook contacts from appearing in your Contacts is to turn off a switch you’ll find in Facebook settings. To do this:
Open the Settings app
Tap on Facebook
Under “Allow These Apps to User Your Account”, turn off the switch for Contacts
Go back to your Phone app → Contacts and refresh the contacts list. All those Facebook contacts should be gone now.
Hide Facebook Contacts From Showing Up (Groups)
So we come to the next method which is usually considered a step backward because of its implementation in iOS 7 (more on that later).
You have these Groups that you can create and manage. Controlling the groups (and their visibility on the Contacts app) was very easy with iOS 6. With iOS 7, it gets a couple of steps extra.
Open the Phone app and tap on contacts
Now, tap on “Groups” link on the top-right
Do you see a “Facebook Contacts” group. You have to turn this off. (Uncheck)
Tap on Hide All Contacts first. Then tap on all other groups that you want to see. Don’t tap on the Facebook group. That’s it. (In iOS 6, tapping used to toggle check/uncheck. The implementation is kind of strange in iOS 7).

HT1206 Lots of info about one user using multiple computers. What about multiple users with separate Apple IDs using same computer? Having problems getting my wifes new iPhone talking to her apple account on the computer we share (2 users)

You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

How do I configure ONE iCloud account with 2 iOS devices each with separate Apple IDs?

We have two iPhones (husband and wife), each with separate Apple IDs. The phones are 5S running iOS 7. We want both phones to use the same iCloud account so each phone will have equal access to the same email, calendar and contacts - all synced in ONE iCloud account.
We will use husband's Apple ID for the iCloud ID. I would like to know exactly how to configure Wife's iPhone so that all email. calendar and contacts synced with iCloud will be identical to that available on Husband's iPhone. I would appreciate step-by-step instructions. Thank you. Dale

On your wife's phone, settings iCloud, sign out and don't keep data when prompted. Then sign in again using the husbands Apple ID.

Can I have 2 accounts with separate Apple-Id on 1 iMac? I share an iMac with my spouse.

We are two people with one iMac 27. We have our own iPhones with separate Apple accounts and A-Id`s.

Yes, just enter your respective ID's in System Preferences > iCloud while logged into your account. These preferences are unique to each user.

My wife and I each have an iPhone4 with separate Apple IDs. We are hopefully about to purchase the 4th gen iPad; can we use iCloud on the iPad with separate IDs on the iPhones?

We would like to have all our music, photos, etc. on the iPad - is it best to create a new combined Apple ID for the iPad and simply upload our music, photos, etc. via our laptop instead? Does this not then render the iCloud useless to us?

And just in case you were wondering, installing one purchased copy on all the Macs you own is specifically called out as allowed in the Mac OS X Lion license.
If you do not want to download multiple times, just copy the Applications -> Install Lion app to a safe place BEFORE you do the first install. Then copy that copy to any Mac you own where you want to install Lion.

Two iMacs each with separate Apple ID. Can I merge onto one Mac?

Two iMacs each with separate Apple ID. Can I merge onto one Mac?

Yes, you can use the same computer for BACK UPS, RESTORING AND UPDATING. But that is it.
You cannot, however, use it to sync the different devices. iTunes will only recognize one device to sync with and if you sync any other devices with that iTunes library, it will replace what is on the phone with whatever is in the library. It cannot differentiate between devices. At most, it will jsut recognize that the phone has been synced with a different iTunes library.
So if you would like to use the same computer for backing up, restoring and updating, just make sure to turn of Automatic Syncing in your iTunes Preferences.

How can my bf and I share are itunes on our computer together but with separate apple ID's so we DO NOT receive each others iMessages all the time?

My boyfriend and I both share an itunes together on my mac book pro, is there away to have seperate apple ID's but both are connected to the shared itunes and have access to all of our purchases? I am asking this becaue since my boyfriend and I both have iphones, we keep revieving each others messages and conversations, and not only is it annoying, but it is an invashion of privacy both ways, on his side and mine. What do we do?
Can you even change your apple ID on your iphone without losing your contacts, apps, music etc..? Can you even have two apple ID's on one shared itunes? Some help me out here, I am so confused.

All apps and purchases are linked to your apple ID, so you can't share them across 2 devices that are using different apple id's, it won't work. the purchases that are on your mac at the moment will only work with the apple id they were brought with.
the only thing thats possible to share is purchased music. you have to first covert it to mp3 within itunes, then your bf can import it into his own itunes library and sync with his phone.

HT5621 I have 2 email addresses ( 1 mac. and 1 blueyonder.) with separate Apple IDs for each ( again 1 mac and 1 blueyonder). This has consistently given me problems with passwords and I would now like to combine them into one account to help overcome thi

I have 2 email addresses (1 mac.and 1 blueyonder.) each with separate identities and passwords. I am forever getting asked to verify identity and/or passwords and having these refused and me then having to set up new ones. Can I combine my email addresses to a single Apple Identity and Password? If yes then How?
Any help much appreciated as this is driving me crazy!

Depending on what you're asking...
There is no means to merge Apple IDs. You can change the mail address assocaited with your Apple ID, so you might switch to using and purchasing from one email address, and using the second as a backup. (There's no means to merge the purchases, and related baggage.)
While I'm guessing this was about Apple IDs, for completeness... Combining the mail messages involving multiple email addresses is separate from the Apple ID; that is usually done with some combination of notifying the senders or with the forwarding of messages from one mail server to the preferred server. Or running multiple mail accounts in parallel, depending on what you are up to.

ITunes sharing among iPhones with different Apple ID's one computer WITHOUT home sharing, shared folder, etc...

I feel like I am losing my mind, here. A few things I want to clear up before you read my question:
No, I am not new to Apple. Yes, I understand that Home Sharing works for any group of devices authrized with my Apple ID. Home Sharing is not my issue.
1. My wife and I have different iPhones with different Apple IDs.
2. We only have one computer, on which iTunes is running under my Apple ID.
3. My iTunes library is far too large to paste into a shared folder. I keep my source folder on a 1TB external hard drive (not enough space on my iMac).
I just want her to be able to plug in and copy music onto her phone from iTunes. Home sharing is great while she's at home on the wifi, but not when she leaves. I created her own user name on my computer, set her iTunes (under her Apple ID) to pull from my library source file, and she can play everything fine, except that she cannot click and drag files onto her phone.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

iTunes Match is associated with one, and only one, iTunes Store Apple ID and country-specific store. The service cannot be shared between Apple IDs.

If we sign up for iTunes with the one account with the majority of the songs, is Home Sharing no longer available to the other two accounts?
Of course it is. iTunes Match has no affect on Home Sharing.
Indy Apple Guy wrote:
A. What happens to the songs on the other two libraries? Can we never use them?
It is possible to consolidate the tracks from the other iTunes libraries into one and use that for iTunes Match. Make sure the one computer that hosts the library is authorized to play any protected content.
Indy Apple Guy wrote:
C. If we purchase songs/albums while in iTunes Match, and then decide not to use Match in the future, do we lose all our music?
Of course not. Any purchases go to the purchase history for the Apple ID that bought them and as long as the tracks are downloaded and backedup you'll have them as long as you maintain them. Keep in mind that iTunes Match is a service; you don't do anything "in" iTunes Match. It simply "is" in the background.
Indy Apple Guy wrote:
D. If we associate our child's iTouch, will it still keep the parental controls in place so it won't play certain songs that are not appropriate f
Yes, parental controls should continue to work as they have. Although I do not use them, perhaps someone else with experience will weigh in.

Syncing two iPhone with separate Apple ID's to the same PC

I have an iPhone and an iPad syncing to my computer, all three using my apple id. My wife is getting an iPhone and would like to use some of the apps which I have purchaced, as well as the music, movies and tv shows on our computer.
My question is: Can my wife use the content of itunes on my computer on her phone, if her phone is using her apple id (keep in mind that she will not be syncing her phone with any other computer) or will i need to use my apple id on her phone to enable the sharing of apps?
Thanks in advance.

anything that you have in your itunes library on cpu can be transferred to her device even if those items were downloaded using your apple id.she can purchase apps using her apple id as well and those items will be added to itunes library on the computer.what i'm saying is that if use share each others applications and in the future some of those apps need updating you have to update with whatever apple id they were downloaded from.does that make sense?

Sharing Contact Info

With my Macbook Pro, is there any easy way I can share contact info for multiple contacts with individuals who use either macs or pcs?

Only to those Mac's or PCs that you own and are either connected to iCloud or Google Mail.
Of course you can export them to some file format and then import them to any computer.

PLEASE HELP! Facebook synced my contact info with someone else?

so basically, I downloaded the new ios 6 and was happy with the facebook syncing with my contacts. My friend who is also an iphone user did the same and realised that my contact info on her phone was coming up with my name and number and personal email but someone elses profile picture and 'facebook email'. when i looked at my own contact info on my phone it was the same case? i would really like to know how to get rid of this! HELLLPPP

It can not do that all by itself.
When you plugged it in, iTunes said 'Oh goody! You got a new phone! Would you like to make it just like your old phone?'...
You explicitly said 'Yes'.
You can't undo that.
No backup of the current state of the new phone was made. It was wiped and the last backup of your old phone was restored to it.
Anything you had on the new phone is gone.

Sending to a shared contact group with subgroups fail

Hello all,
I am hoping someone can help me with this one, as I have researched non stop and cannot find an answer.
SCENARIO:
Outlook 2010 (with all the latest updates)
Exchange 2010
Windows 7 x64
We are a group of 15 users. All 15 of us add a shared mailbox used for communications into our Outlook client so we can access and monitor the entire mailbox, including contacts.
When trying to send a communication to a Contact group that is in the shared mailbox contacts, it will work fine unless there is another contact group within that group (subgroup). The email will bounce back with the following error:
[email protected] #550 5.4.4 ROUTING.NoConnectorForAddressType; unable to route for address type ##
If you send to a contact group with a subgroup from your own local contacts, it works fine.
If you send to a contact group without a subgroup, it works fine.
If you log directly into the shared mailbox and send from there, it works fine.
This issue appears ONLY to occur when sending to a contact group that has a subgroup within it from a shared contact list.
Based on my investigation, it appears that Outlook is trying to look for the subgroups within the local contact list, not the location of the actual contact group itself. Perform the following steps:
Add an additional (or shared) mailbox to your Outlook profile.
In the shared mailbox contact list, create 2 contact groups. (Test 1 and Test 2).
Add Test 2 into the Test 1 group. In Test 2 group, create/add a contact. (This may easiest be done by the shared mailbox itself)
Ensure you are logged into your original profile, and Right click the Test 1 group and Create->Email.
You will notice right away if you expand the Test 1 group, it will show up Test 2 (Unknown) and if you try and double click Test 2 to see it's properties, it says it cannot find it. If you perform this same step while logged into the shared mailbox directly,
it is able to locate the contact.
Any information I have found on this bounceback references a bug where a link in an email who try to send to a contact using MAILTO instead of SMTP. However, this is not the scenario I am in.
It is currently not feasible to have everyone add all these contact groups into their own contact list, as these groups change all the time.
If anyone has any ideas how this could be fixed, or have maybe other suggestions of how to use and access groups with subgroups for communications without logging into the shared mailbox, that would be great. We are unable to login to the shared mailbox
directly anymore as we are doing away with shared passwords.
Thanks all

Hello,
How did you select the recipients when composing email? Did you click the To button and select it from the Address Book or use the auto-complete list? If you select from the auto-complete list, please try deleting the contact group from the auto-complete
list and then test again.
In addition, since the bounceback error is similar to the MAILTo bug, we may try to install the hotfix to take a chance.

Can I sync all the contact info with Ovi Suite 3.0...

Hi!
Is there a way to sync all my contact info from my N900?
For example I have Skype, Google Talk and jabber account linked to almost all of my contacts, but I can not see or edit them from the Nokia Ovi Suite.
I'm afraid that I will loose some contact information, if I use the syncing more + now it messed up with my contact in my phone and created multiple instances of some persons.

Hi,
FieldPoint Explorer is no longer used to configure FieldPoint systems. However, I do not think that the configuring your system in FieldPoint Explorer is causing the error.
FieldPoint systems are now setup in Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX). Information on setting up FieldPoint systems in MAX can be found in the MAX help under: Installed Products>> FieldPoint. Also, I recommend upgrading to the latest FieldPoint driver and version of MAX. The FieldPoint VI's will be slightly different when you upgrade, so there is a good chance that this will eliminate the error.

Hal L.
