Sync games from two accounts

I have 2 accounts (apple ids) an bought different games for both accounts which are also located on different computer.
How do I transfer games from one account to another so i can have both sets of games on the ipod @ once...
(Boght 2 iPods 4 the chldrn... that's why different accounts)

You can add iTunes songs to as many iPods as you like and if those iPods are all connecting to the same library then the songs can be used on them all. As you have already pointed out, it's the computer which is authorised to use the songs not the iPod. If the songs play in the library the iPod is connecting to then they will load onto the iPod. iTunes songs can also be copied to and used on up to 5 authorised computers so if he had a computer of his own he could copy his wife's songs to his own computer as long as it was authorised to play songs from his wife's account:

Sync contacts from two accounts with Outlook 2013 in my PC

My wife and I both have an account with individual contact lists. I am using the icloud program on my win8 PC to sync the contacts with Outlook 2013. Can I set-up this tool to sync the contacts from both apple accounts ?

The sync process for contacts with a supported address book application on your computer is a bi-directional or true sync process, or should be.
If you use Outlook on your computer for contacts and your iPhone includes contacts before the first sync for this data, you will be provided a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select. After the first sync and merge in this situation, the contacts between the two will be kept synchronized with following syncs or should be.

Sync photos from two separate iCloud accounts

How do I sync photos from two separate iCloud accounts onto my PC?

Howdy Springcheer,
While this is not syncing per se, I'm wondering if iCloud Photo Sharing will do what you need to get photos from two separate iCloud accounts to your PC.

Please read the article. It may work for you.
Take care,

In iPad 1 ios 4 may have two ipad Apps the same from two accounts itunes

In iPad 1 ios 4 may have two ipad Apps the same from two accounts itunes one free other paid account, hence one free App and another paid App the same App?

If both accounts are authorised on your computer's iTunes (Store > Authorise This Computer) then you can download the books from both accounts to there (download the books from one account, then sign out of it via Store > Sign Out, log in with the other account via Store > Sign In and download the books from the other account), and sync them over to the iPad's iBooks app via the Books tab.
Or you might be able to sign out of your account on the iPad by tapping on it Settings > Store and sign in with the other account and download the books from that account - I think that it should work, but it's not something that I've tried so I'm not 100% sure that it will

Mail is not downloading messages from two accounts but the messages are in the server.

Hello, I'm having this problem. Mail is not downloading messages from two accounts. I don't know why but there're two accounts working so bad. If I click with the right button on the account and click to see the account details, I can see the messages on the server but not in inbox. I made a sync with this account and my iphone and then the iphone downlad the messages with out problems. Not my imac at work or my imac at home... what can be wrong?
Thanks.

For Gmail, this is normal, there is nothing you can do about it -- just type Mail AND Gmail in the search box to see threads discussing how Gmail works.
As for the other accounts, this shouldn't happen. I wonder if what you're seeing is just that Mail is ignoring this setting for mail that was already on the server when you started using it. I've seen something like this happen when playing with that setting, e.g. changing it from "After one day" to "After one week". Mail would just ignore messages that fell in the timeframe where the two settings could interfere and I didn't notice it until some time later, when Mail "forgot" those messages had already been downloaded and, being faced with them again, dutifully downloaded them as if they were all new.
I believe that, if you leave the setting however you wish and stop playing with it, then Mail shall correctly process any mail that arrives from now on. In order to manually delete old messages that Mail seems to be ignoring, you can invoke the Account Info window (this is probably what you meant when you said "I can delete messages individually"; if that's not the case and want more info on this, just ask).

I just recently purchased a mini iPad for my child. It was set up in the Apple store with my Apple id. I now want to create an Apple id for my child and switch it over, how can I go about that. I already downloaded some of the games from my account.

With a new account, you'll need to rebuy the games.
Each user should have their own icloud account, otherwise they end up getting the same emails, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc. - usually not what you want. But if all have been sharing the same itunes ID, keep it that way, you can have different IDs for itunes and icloud.
If you already have another icloud account, and want to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account. This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud. Then enter the account ID that you want to use.

I am trying to sync games from itunes to my ipod but after the sync is finished the games are not on my ipod and on itunes they are no longer selected. any ideas?

I am trying to sync games from itunes to my ipod touch. After the sync is done the games I checked to sync are no longer checked and nothing was actually synced. Any ideas?

Are the apps/games compatible with your model iPod and iOS?
Do you have restrictions set that prevent installing the apps? Settings>General>Restrictions
Have you successfully synced apps from that iTunes library to your computer before?

Sync photos from two libraries

How can I sync photos from two libraries? after syncing one of them I close that library and open the other and choose to select certain albums and the warning pops up that if I sync the current selection all others will be replaced with the current library.So it appears that you can't add to the ATV hard drive additional photos from the second library without losing the content you already have from the first one.Is streaming the answer, and if so how do you do that?

You can't sync more then 1 library with the apple tv. Your only option would be to sync with one and stream with the other. Just make sure on the second library that you set it to share and then go to computers on the apple tv and select the shared library. ATV will give you a code that you will set on the second library when you have itunes open. Put in the code and you will be able to stream

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.

How to sync files from two different subscriptions in two different CC desktop folders

HI,
I have two CC subscriptions, one for work and one personal. I ran the work subscription in two computers at work and at home (when I need to work from home.) The problem I find is that there is not two different CC folders for each subscription. When I log out from my work subscription, all my files for that subscription go away. Then when I log in again, they whole syncing process starts all over again. I chose to have two different subscriptions so not to mix my personal work with my work's. Is there a way to have a CC folder on my desktop for each subscription? In this way, when I log out from one account and go to the other the files of the account I just logged out don't get replaced for the files of the account I just logged in. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I just want to let you know what you should be seeing when using 2 accounts.
Account one:
1. Log in with Adobe ID for account one
2. Files sync to Creative Cloud files which is located in your home directory on Mac or Windows.
3. Log out of account one, Creative Cloud now displays the log in panel.
Account two:
1. Log in with Adobe ID for account two
2. Files sync to account 2's Creative Cloud files which is located in your home directory on Mac or Windows. (Account one's Creative Cloud Files folder is re named)
Thing to check for are:
After you logged in to account two, the Creative Cloud folder for account 1 should now be renamed, can you check this please to make sure it has.
The same is true is you log back in to account one, account two's Creative Cloud folder will be renamed.
The data should not have to fully re-sync ever time you log out of account 1 and then into account 2, however, can you be sure that the data is actually re downloading. ie; you had 5GB of data in account one and when you log into account 1 the whole 5GB of data is re downloading?, could you check this?
The Creative Cloud files panel will display "Syncing" for a short while is you switch accounts, this is normal and means the application is reading data on disk and data on the server checking for changes/added files etc. This is not re-downloading all of your data, it is simply checking.
You are able to move the Creative Cloud files folder to any location on your local hard drive via the Creative Cloud prefs.
Thanks

Syncing apps from one account to another

I am using a new itunes account how to get old apps from my first account to sync to new account so it uses new account when i want to update them??
please help

As long as you have the password and your mum's permission you can authorise your computer for both accounts. Updating apps from the two accounts is a bit fiddly as you have to sign out of one account and then into the other, but it is doable. If your mum doesn't use iTunes you should also set the payment method on her account to none so you don't accidentally purchase anything through her account in future.

HT1918 despite changing my apple twice id somebody in N. America/Canada is downloading games from my account. the website does not give me any recourse to correct this and track who is doing this. Any suggestion would be gratefully received

Hi,
I cannot seem to find any help for a situation that has now occurred twice, despite changing my apple id on bith occasions. Twice now, once from Canada, the second time from the USA, someone has downloaded games using my account.
The website seems particularly unhelpful as to how to rectify this and Apple do not appear to want to take responsibility for helping me sort this out. any suggestions would be gratefull received.

TS4147 Duplicate contacts from two accounts

Hi, I have two accounts (iCloud and Gmail) setting to show contacts in my contacts, how can I merge both acounts into one clean list? and I prefer if that would be in Gmail since I use 2 phones with the same number (Galaxy S4 and iPhone 5), iOS7 on iPhone

You're probably syncing from two sources. Do the contacts show up as duplicated at icloud.com?
One of the most causes is syncing from both icloud and itunes.

- Are you following the instructions here:
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
- Are restrictions set that prevent syncing? Go to Settings>General>Restrictions and check.
- Is this the computer she syncs with? AN iPod can ony sync to one iTunes library (but can manage music and videos among different libraries/computers).
