TS1741 How do I have multiple apple IDs on one Apple TV 5.3

I have looked and looked but I can't find a way to put both mine and my boyfriends apple IDs onto this Apple TV that I just bought him. It's the 5.3 version, I went under general, settings, and then iTunes Store, and there isn't a accounts option, it's just a sign in option so how can we both use our phones as remotes?

Well, you could save multiple Apple ID on your Apple TV, but you can't use them at the same time!
To add and manage multiple Apple IDs on Apple TV, follow this guide:

Each person needs to have their own separate Apple ID along with their own separate computer user account and iTunes Library.

Is there a way to combine all my apple ids into one new apple id so all my previous purchases are on one id?
Thanks

Unfortunately, you can't. IDs can't be merged. You'll just have to pick the ID whose itunes account has the most purchased items.

How do I add multiple gamecenter accounts to one Apple ID?

We have multiple devices and different kids so I want to keep all of the devices on one Apple ID for sync reasons but create different game center accounts, one for each device. How do I do this? I don't see anywhere in IOS7 where I can add or delete gamecenter ids. Any ideas?
Jack

After 2 hours worth of searching with no answer, I decided to run a test and it worked. This is what I did to have multiple Game Center IDs on iOS7. (People responding may have over looked this detail because they assumed it was obvious, but it wasn't)
Answer: you MUST have multiple Apple ID accounts, however, you use the main one to log in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE.
1. I deleted the Alternate Email Address associated with my account
2. I created an entire new Apple ID with this email address
3. I login in to SETTINGS > ITUNES & APP STORE with my original Apple ID (credit card on file)
4. I login to Game Center, iCloud, etc... with my kid's NEW Apple ID
So purchasing still goes under our shared account and game center, iCloud, etc... go under my kid's Apple ID.
^ ^ ^ ^ This is the simple straight forward answer I was looking for ^ ^ ^ ^

HT204053 can I have multiple icloud accounts for one apple id?

I have multiple people in my family using our original apple id . As they have gotten iphones, macbooks, etc they register there devices under our originale apple id. over the holidays when my youngest child got her ipod touch and registered it for icloud, two of the children now are seeing each others texts? Is there a way to use the same apple id for the family and have seperate icloud accounts for each person or should we have a seperate apple id for each person?

Yes but the issue with receiving each other's text messages is not being caused by sharing the same iCloud account. To fix this, each person needs to be using a separate Apple ID for iMessage on their devices. (Note: you can continue to use the same iTunes account on all your devices but each person should use a different ID for iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime). There are a couple of things you need to do to sort all this out.
First decide who will be keeping the current ID for all services. On the device(s) belonging to the other people in your family, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the Apple ID, sign out, then sign back in with a saparate ID for each person. After doing so you will no longer be getting each other's messages on your devices.
Next, to avoid getting each other's FaceTime calls, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
For iCloud, to avoid having merged data by syncing with the same iCloud account you will need to migrate each person to their own iCloud account. To do this, first decide who will be keeping the current account. On the other devices go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from the device, not from iCloud. The device(s) that will be keeping the current account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My [iDevice]. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID on the device(s) belonging to each person. Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, to un-merge the data in your iCloud accounts you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting the other person's contacts from your account, and vice versa).

Have multiple devices associated with one Apple ID: iPod Touch and Ipad Mini stopped sending/receiving iMessages and FaceTime all of a sudden

This is the listing of what we have:
Ipod Touch 4th Gen for daughter
Ipod Touch 5th Gen for another daughter
Ipad 3
Ipad Mini
Iphone 4S
Iphone 4S
For sharing/downloading convenience, all of these are linked to one apple ID. iMessage and FaceTime were working flowlessly when we set it up. Yes, there was a problem initially where some devices were receiving someone else's texts, but they were resolved when I went to Settings and chose a specific # or email address for each DEVICE (so there's no overlapping)
All of a sudden, my daughter's Ipod Touch 4th Gen started having problems sending messges. Sending bar will go up to the end then stop right before it gets completely full--end result, message not delivered. I tried to facetime her, but nothing happens. Sometimes when I try facetiming ipod touch 4th, I'd get an error message '____ is not available for FaceTime'
I've confirmed the email address associated with ipod Touch 4 has been added and verified under my apple ID. I've tried restoring the iPod in iTunes, hard resetting the unit, turning off and on iMessage/FaceTime... and still doesn't work.
All our software is up to date. By the time I started thinking maybe ipod touch 4th gen is getting old, my husband's newly bought ipad MINI started having the same problem.
This is really frustrating---help?

We're screwwwwwed! Not THAT familiar to apple, just barely plugging along and dove in with two ipads and two ipod touches. Previous experience was just two ipods (160 GB) that I had to still rotate audio books out of every few months... well, for me. My wife doesn't use hers as much. ANYWAY, I lost a zillion things with the ipod classic since it didn't have a back-up option and many of the CDs I scrounged up when it first came out were already lucky to have survived college. 8 years later and the computer that had the original files had been replaced umpteen times. ipods failed and decided to quit being a tight wad. Not sure if these gifts are worth it yet.... well, two of them were.

How do you have multiple account apps on one device

I have an iPod touch gen 2 and it's set up on my parents computer. I want to be able to sync apps from there accounts and my account on the one device. When I do it, it asks me to authorize it on the computer. I do it and it copies the apps on to there computer. When I'm done they delete the apps from the computer. When I sync again it deletes the apps. How do I do it?

From the "iPod: Frequently Asked Questions" document found here...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60920
Question: Can I update more than one iPod with my computer?
Answer: Yes. Each iPod communicates a unique device identification number to your computer, allowing you to take advantage of automatic music transfers to your iPod even if you share a computer with another iPod user. You can choose to automatically update your entire music collection on multiple iPod players or choose to update selected playlists, allowing you to transfer custom playlists to individual iPod players.

Can i have multiple itunes accounts under one apple id?

I am trying to create seperate apple id's for my daughters (2) with only one main email account - is this possible?

No. One account per email address.

One cloud many apple ids or one apple id many clouds?

having had an apple id since the iphone first rolled out & i signed up for mobile me i've always loved the way everything works minus a few human errors which led to unitentional deleting of some content while merging. as time has passed and my children have grown, the devices on which i had let them use were all synced through my apple id allowing primarily the sharing of music as i had turned off the sync contacts/notes/bookmarks etc... & had just set them up with their own email & manually synced photos for those devices. my question now with icloud & with children who are quickly becoming more adept at manipulating the settings on these devices is how do i maintain sharing of our itunes/music/video library while at the same time allowing them to create & maintain their own photo stream/ contacts, other settings?

For your children to maintain their own syncing of contacts, calendars, Photostream etc. they should have their own individual iCloud Apple ID. Also for iMessage they'll need their own AppleID.
However, they can still continue to use your Apple ID for iTunes and AppStore purchases. This can safely be seperate to iCloud.

How do you have multiple apple id's with one itunes

how do you have multiple apple id's with one itunes

I have multiple IDs and use the single computer sharing itunes. By 'sharing' I mean we open the pc, open itunes and log in with our individual ID as required.
While Im logged in I plug in my device. I transfer my purchases from my device as per the file menu (not the check for auto downloads). I move them as required to whichever playlist I like.
Then when my son wants to use itunes or update his device, he logs in, plugs in his device, transfers purchases from his device, puts whatever music he wants into his playlist and/or drags direct to the device regardless of who purchased it and then syncs.
Im not sure how it works associating the pc with only one ID or all that other business- I know I don't fiddle with any of that.

How can I have multiple users on one apple id?

How can I have multiple users on one apple ID?
ie: I have my apple ID with my own credit, how can I set up credit for my son under the same apple ID, so that he can still access the same apps I've already downloaded and paid for?

I've been trying to figure out a clean way to do this too. I think you may need more than one Apple ID – one that is shared and used to purchase "sharable" items and then "individual" Apple IDs for you and your son. That's the idea that I'm pursuing for the moment.
It seems that there must be a way to do this, App Store purchases for the Mac are licensed across multiple machines. iPhone app purchases have "all your devices" licensing. Makes me think that Apple has a process in mind for sharing an account (or associating a device with multiple accounts).
Other things I've learned:
- Apparently you can't merge Apple ID accounts. I asked about this once at an Apple Store and was told that there was no way to do it.
- If you share an Apple ID the Messages app behaves in a somewhat surprising manner. It must use your Apple ID to decide where messages should be sent because all users get all messages. This can make it very hard to organize a surprise party :-)

I have two Apple ids but one was a typo, how do I get rid of it?

i have two Apple IDS. One was a typo and I cannot get rid of the email. The right email is there, but when I go to update the wrong email shows up, and I do not know the password to it. How do i get rid of it?

What did you do with the Apple IDs? Did you download content with the bad ID? Apple does not provide a way to merge IDs, so if you did things with the bad ID, the only thing you can do is delete that content and download it with the correct one.

I have multiple users & devices on my apple account. How do i set up icloud so we can have our own emails?

I have multiple devices$ users on my apple account. How do I set up icloud so that we can have our own emails?

iCloud isn't designed for multiple users. Everyone involved should have their own separate iCloud account, which means they need a separate Apple ID to create it: and each should be using a separate user account on the Mac to sign into their iCloud account.
