Splitting an apple ID so we can use Friend Finder

How can I "split" an Apple ID so my wife and I can use Find Friends?
My wife and I each have an iPhone and share a Mac. We've always shared the same Apple ID.
We've updated to iOS 5 on our phones, but still run Snow Leopard on the Mac. Thus, we are not yet using iCloud except for Find My iPhone.
I used our current Apple ID for my iCloud account, and created a new email account for my wife's iCloud account.
To use the new Find Friends app however, my wife and I each have to have a separate Apple ID.I'll use our old Apple ID and I've created a new Apple ID for her.
But how do I "transfer" all of her existing iPhone apps to this new Apple ID? How can I prevent the accidental deletion of all her apps the first time she syncs with iTunes via her account on the Mac?

Hmmm
My wife and I want the same functionality and we're achieving that without excessive battery drain by using Find My Friends.
We have Fetch New Data set to Push and we have the Fetch frequency set to Manual. (So our email only gets updated when we enter Mail.)
We're able to use Find My Friends and, as I mentioned, we haven't noticed any increase in battery drain.
However, we're frustrated with Find My Friends because it typically "locates" only within a very large area (like within a 1/2 mile to a mile) when we're either at work or home. Sometimes my wife wonders why I'm a 1/2 mile from home in a neighborhood park at 10:00 PM when I'm actually sitting at home.

How can I buy it on my Apple ID so I can use Recovery to put my MBP to function once again? Help D=

My MBP just failed, bought it from a friend and dont have an Apple ID with Lion, Lion is no longer on the App Store so, how can I buy it on my Apple ID so I can use Recovery to put my MBP to function once again? Help D=
Or what else could I do? I don´t have any USB to reinstall the OS and my DVD Unit is death, but it seems I can reinstall over Wi-Fi if Im able to link an OS X Lion license to my Apple ID

You would need to call Apple Sales (USA 1-800-MY-APPLE) and purchase a redemption code for Lion.

I bought an Apple gift card, I can use it on itunes?

I bought an Apple gift card, I can use it on itunes?

Sorry, but no. I had a quick look at the "Buy Apple Gift card" page at the online Apple Store, and found this in the fine print:
Note: Apple Gift Cards cannot be redeemed at the iTunes Music Store. Purchase an iTunes Music Card instead. Apple reserves the right to change at any time the products you can purchase with gift cards and to limit the use of gift cards in its discretion. See the Gift Card Terms and Conditions, below.

My husband and I both have facetime on our laptops. I believe we both are using the same apple id. Does he have to have a seperate apple id so we can use face time?

I believe you can manage your laptops with one Apple id, but I recommend that you have individual Calling ID's for each laptop. This calling ID is under the "You can be reached for calls at:" line when your in Facetime preferences. This will allow you two guys to call each other on your laptops, plus you don't have to be bothered by people calling him, or visa versa.

Iphone purchased and gifted to an india person with non contract apple iphone. it can use in india or not

Iphone purchased and gifted to an india person with non contract apple iphone. it can use in india or not

If it is an unlocked iPhone, GSM model, it should work though will not likely work on an LTE network...those are not consistent in frequencies.
But, keep in mind that the warranty is only valid in the country of sale. If there is a problem with the iPhone, there will be no support for it in India. It will have to be returned to the country of purchase for service support.

I absolutely agree. I use Glympse if I need to let someone know my whereabouts for a short period of time. But, beyond that, ick!

Misplaced my phone. Anyone know if there is an app on here I can use to find it?

I have misplaced my phone and I seem to be unable to find it. It could be anywhere at this point. Does VerizonWireless.com have some sort of program I can use to find my phone?

There is an app in the mar... uh, Play Store from lookout labs called Plan B that can do this. Go here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lookout.labs.planb&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5sb29rb3V0LmxhYnMucGxhbmIiXQ.. click to install (you will have to sign in with the gmail account associated with your phone) and it will be sent to your phone. After the app installs, it will send emails to your gmail address with the phones location. Due to the limitations in GPS, of course, if you lost it in your house, it will not tell you what room it's in, but it will give you a rough idea and, if it's moving, you will be able to see this. Of course, the phone does need to be on and, seeing as how this post is already a day old, hopefully your battery hasn't died yet.

How do i sign out of an old apple account so i can begin using my new apple account

Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.

How can I turn my ipod on remotely so that I can use the Find my Iphone app (sound mode) to find it

I have a ipod 5 gen and I lost it somewhere around the house. I've used the Find My Iphone app, but it indicates that its offline. So I'm guessing it ran out of battey or its turned off. That's why I am asking if theres anyway that I could turn my ipod back on in order for the sound to be played from FMI app. Thanks alot for any future help.

You can't, When off it is dead
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

I have an iPad 2. I cannot get it to print from our Hp photosmart 6525 printer. Both Hp and apple say these machines can use AirPrint. Can anyone help

I have an iPad 2 and cannot get it to print from our p photosmart 6525 printer. Does anyone know how to get the AirPrint to work between these two machines?

Hi,
As soon as the devices connected to your network the printer should appear as AirPrint.
You may ensure it is connected by clicking the wireless icon on the printer screen to locate its IP, then type the IP into Safari and check if you can access the printer homepage from your iPad.
If the printer conncted but still not being detected as AirPrint, ensure you have the latest firmware for your printer:

If the printer still not being dedected I would rather suspect the network as AirPrint uses Apple Bonjour and therefore require your network to support multicasting to operate..
You may test it by temporary setting direct connection using Wireless Direct, if the printer being detected without using the router please clarify your router brand and model to better understand your router capabiities.
The steps to enable Wireless Direct can be found listed below:
