Shoot me or share the pain Apple geek family LOL

Hello GUYS
This morning really suck. Everything is broken. Where do I start!?
I have a macbook pro and G4 on Leopard. I'm using it for a week. I'm quite happy with it. Unfortunately!
problem 1- G4 ->the major problem I don't know how to solve
Leopard is installed all works just fine. Only Airport is shutting down every 3 minutes or so. I have to turn it off and on, to go back online. It switches itself off, when I browse internet printing...etc.
It is my wife's computer, so I did not rush to solve her problem hahaha lol. But now I'm banging my head on the table, because my macbook pro collapsed:((((((( (do you know what the problem is, with the airport???
Problem 2 ->
Leopard on macbook pro really nice. Just this morning I was recording a "screen show" video, for my mum who just bought a new macbook. I was using IshowU software I bought a year ago.
All was fine recorded everything. then suddenly I saw that my photos are disappearing from the folders. I could not find them anymore. It was strange. So I quit all applications and restarted because something looked odd. Well after restart *BLUE SCREEN APPEARED* and I knew i was fu*&%^.
Now I'm browsing a net how to solve the problem, Connection goes on and off. and My mac book pro can not be reinstalled because I don't have a space on my HDD. There is a forum That I can use terminal -> did not work, I don't have a firewire cable so reinstall is the option.
-> *well I have the time machine. When I select to restore my operating system, there is a strange warning. It says that it will delete all folders. DOES IT MEAN I will LOOSE all FILES? Photos, movies ..etc?* I can not do that.
I called Help service. I get connected to India or some country like that. Not able speak english. She gave me a number to call to England. Good for me the number did not work, so I did not need to pay phone cost. I called again for different number, She gave me second number to England. Lucky me it did not work too. LOL So Im writing my connection is off. and hopefully I will be able post this message and somebody will help me out.
sorry about that
Regards MIKE
What should I do?

For problem 1, try the solution in Mac OS X 10.5: AirPort may not work after installing Login and Keychain Update 1.0 -- basically, just start up in safe mode, then restart normally.
For problem 2, is it possible that you have filled up your startup drive to near its capacity? OS X requires some free space on the drive for scratch files or it can't run properly -- 10-15% free space is the rule of thumb most suggest. How big is your drive & how much of it is free?
Also, you say using Terminal "did not work." What were you trying to do with Terminal & what happened?
As a bit of general advice, if you call AppleCare & have trouble understanding the support person, either ask to be transfered to someone you can understand more easily or just thank them for their efforts, end the call, & call again -- you will probably get someone with a better command of English.

  • Can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  Yes, there is more to the story.

    I have an iMac, and iPhone.  I've had my Apple ID for a few years. 
    My wife got an iPhone 4S a few months back and the salesperson at Verizon set her Apple ID the same as mine, but gave her a different password.  I don't know if this was ok, but that is what happened.
    So, yesterday, we both upgraded to IOS6 and I had no problem logging in to my iPhone with my Apple ID.  When my wife went to log in, she was told that she was entering the wrong password. We entered the password over and over again and still was wrong.
    The question is... can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  (I have the feeling her iPhone is thinking that since it's my Apple ID, it wants my password.)
    If not, can I still set up a new Apple ID for her even through she's had the iPhone for a few months?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    You shold follow your feelings, its probably right most of the time.
    You can have 5 different devices hucked upp to one Apple ID. What I have done is that my wife and I have one Apple ID, when I bye a new app on my phone, She gets it to. Thats nice.
    You can allways set upp a new Apple ID for your wife.

  • We have 2 iphone 4. Not upgraded to OSI5. We share the same Apple id to buy, etc. How can we set up the same Apple id but a diiferent icloud id and still see both iphones on find my iphone?

    My wife and I both have iPhone 4 phones. Neither of them have been upgraded to OSI 5. We share the same Apple ID to buy things, etc. We are planning to buy an iphone 4s for our daughter next month. We would all like to share the same Apple id so that we can make purchases from the same account ... that way we only fund one account. We would like to upgrade to OSI 5 and keep/share the same Apple id but be able to set up different iCloud accounts for when we sync our phones. How can we do that? One other thing, we like being able to fine our locations on the same screen (and would add our daughter) using Find My Phone. Can we still do that? Thanks in advance for your help.

    You could and should set up different iCloud accounts in "Settings > iCloud", so that every user has its own email account, calendars, reminders, notes, storage for backups and app data (files etc.), by the way everyone could also use his own account for iMessage (Settings > Messages > Send & Receive) and FaceTime (Settings > FaceTime) so that you all could write and call each other.
    Next the Apple ID for music, apps and other media: You all could just set up the ssame Apple ID in "Settings > iTunes & App Stores" for all your media purchases like songs, movies, apps etc.

    Deleting an account from a device will not delete the information from the account, if that is what you are asking.

  • 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:"

  • We have multiple devices in the family, including now 4 iphones, all who share the same Apple ID. I want to stop this, but need thoughts on multiple IDs as Findmyphone works well as same ID?!

    We have multiple devices in the family, including now 4 iphones, all who share the same Apple ID. I want to stop this, but need thoughts on multiple IDs as Findmyphone works well as same ID?!

    I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
    What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
    Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
    Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!

  • HT201077 my daughter and I share the same apple id but can we have separate photo stream

    My daughter and I share the same apple ID for music and apps. Is there any way for us to have separate photo streams. We do not want to share photos.

    Hi
    I also have 2 iphones (mine and my wifes), all on ONE iTunes ID and ONE iCloud ID.
    I want to backup our photos only automatically to my Windowns 7 PC using Photostream & iCloud from both devices BUT I dont want her photos on my phone and vice versa.
    I too would like to keep 1 iTunes account and because I dont  want her photos streamed to my phone I will create separate iCloud IDs.
    My question is.....
    Can I set up my iClound control panel in Windows to backup photos from BOTH the iCloud IDs on the 2 phones?
    I dont mind the backups going to the same folder on my PC, but I do want to keep the pics on the phones separate.
    (also I am happy to use 3rd party software or manual options if not possibe with Apple products)

  • I stopped using iCloud after another family member received all my contacts. Now I want to restart using iCloud. How do I prevent this happening again? We share the same Apple id password and credit card but different usernames.

    I stopped using iCloud after another family member received all my contacts. Now I want to restart using iCloud. How do I prevent this happening again? We share the same Apple id password and credit card but different usernames.

    If two of you shared the same contacts you were logged in with the same Apple ID. In order to avoid this you need to use different Apple IDs, and be using separate Macs or separate user accounts on the same Mac.
    One or other of you should create a new Apple ID at http://appleid.apple.com for which you will need a non-Apple email address which hasn't been associated with another Apple ID.

  • I have 2 iphones that share the same apple id but do not want them to share contacts and apps, how can I change this

    I have 2 iphones that share the same apple ID I do not want them to share contacts and apps how can I change this?

    You can use separate AppleIDs for iCloud, iMessage and iTunes - you just need to create unique AppleIDs for the iCloud accounts if syncing contacts that way (you will need an email address that is not already registered as an AppleID though to get another AppleID).
    Apps are a different matter in that purchases are tied to the AppleID used to log in to the store to make the purchase.  So you can create another AppleID for iTunes as well and use different ones on the different phones, but any apps you have already purchased with your existing AppleID are permanently tied to that AppleID.
    Really, unless you are sharing apps, content and such, there is no reason to use the same AppleID on each anyway.  So the simplest solution is to create new AppleID(s) for the second device.  If you need an email address to do that, just get a gmail account (or hotmail, yahoo or any other free email account).

  • Can two separate Game Center users share the same Apple ID?

    Two people share the same Apple ID on their separate iPads. Now want to start getting into games and compete with Achivements. Can they have separate Game Center accounts using the same Apple ID?
    (similar to how they use the same Apple ID with FaceTime, but are able to use different email addresses for video calls)

    Creating a new iTunes account does not remove any purchases made on a different account.
    If you want to create a new account : iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
    Or if you will want to use it in the stores and don't want to give credit card details : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
    Or if you are not currently logged into an account in game centre then you should have a 'create a new Apple id' link at the bottom of the login screen in it.

    How can I block someone in my family from seeing my email since it's in the Icloud but we share the same Apple account?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
