Best way to set up iCloud on a shared MAC

My wife and I share a MacBook Pro on Lion, with one user serving us both. But we have separate apple ids, used for iTunes and for logging in to Apple Support discussions. We do not use iCloud presently. In preparation for Mountain Lion, I am considering turning on iCloud in system preferences. It is possible or advisable for us to have two iCloud accounts? I ask that because she has exclusive use of our one iPad and I have exclusive use of our one iMac. Since iCloud facilitates sharing of data among devices, is there any reason to have one iCloud account synching the MBP and the iPad, and another synching the MBP and my iMac?

My wife and I had our own Apple ID's from before we met. We wanted to keep these but also wanted to revel in the functionality of iCloud.
Consequently, we created a "Shared" icloud ID and put this in our iPhones, iPad and iMac... then we use our individual Apple ID's in the store.
So,
iMac = store: whoever is using it / icloud: [email protected] ID.
Her iPhone = store: [email protected] / icloud: [email protected]
My iPhone = store: [email protected] / icloud: [email protected]
Our iPad = store: whoever is using it / icloud: [email protected]
This means we can photostream, share calendars, contacts, reminders etc... but then still purchase music and apps to our own taste for our own individual devices.
This works exceptionally well for us as a model. However, having just watched the "Mountain Lion" video and seeing that you sign-in once with things like Facebook etc.. I'm not sure how this will work... it's kind of like a push towards us each having our own mac. Which is unlikely to ever happen. So I'll play it by ear moving forward.
Hope this helps.

Is there a way to get reimbursed for buying apps for mac book pro

How can you get your money back if you accidently downloaded wrong app?

Hi ..
Apple's policy states that, "all sales are final" > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE -TERMS AND CONDITIONS
But you can at least ask for a refund > Apple - Support - Mac App Store - Contact Support

Way the Maverick upgrade works slow in my mac book pro 2011?

I just install e new OSX, and my macbook pro work slow. And doesn't the same with mountai lion.

Hi,
What are your Mac's specs, ie RAM, hard drive size, video memory, etc...? If you MacBook Pro is brand-new, frankly, don't bother installing Windows on a separate partition: install VirtualBox, create a sizeable (as in, 20 to 30Gb) virtual hard drive, then install Windows on it.
The pros? You can use your copy of Windows as if it were installed on a separate partition, without the hassle of partitioning. You can even switch from OS X to Windows without having to reboot.
The cons? Windows won't feel as responsive as it would on its own partition (though from what I hear about Boot Camp, even that is debatable...), and you'd rather have a solid amount of RAM, empty disk space (for swapping) and video memory if you want to enjoy the experience.
Up to you, but worth a try...

There's a few ways of doing it. The following article is worth checking through.

What is the best way to set up iTunes on our home network so all family members have access to all of our itunes library, even music we don't have on the cloud?

I have five different people using 10 different apple devices on one itunes account in our family. We have had trouble sharing. What is the best way to set up itunes on our home network? We have purchased music that sits on icloud, but we also have music we have imported from our previous cd library. Our itunes program keeps crashing and dumping everyone's playlists. So far we have all been using just the one desktop computer to sync to because we can't figure out how to share the same librarly and playlists on multiple computers in our home so devices can be synced at any location as well as playlists and purchases be made.

What is the best way to set up itunes on our home network?
One iTunes library per person. One iTunes account per person.
If people wish to share songs, they can make copies.
When the inevitable day comes when the kids get older, you will not have to come back here and post asking how all that stuff can get separated!

What Is The Best Way To Set Up Kids iTouch To My iTunes?

I have an iTouch set up with my iTunes music, movies and apps, but now I gave my kids each an iTouch.
What is the best way to set up there account, should it be a unique account for each of them or should I put them under my account?
They will be using my same iMac when they sync or update there iTouch, so will they need to log in under their name every time?
Not sure what is the best way to set this up, they are both minors, i.e. no credit card.
Thanks

Better just your account for multiple devices. The only drawback is that the music will have to managed manually.
Connect one of the iPods to your computer then launch iTunes. You should see the iPod under Devices on the left side of the iTunes window. Double click then you can name each iPod to keep them separate but only syncs to your iTunes account.
Without knowing your Apple ID user name and password they would not be able to make purchases ergo no downloads you aren't aware of.
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer
The kids are minors.. if they are under 13 years of age, according to Apple, they can't have their own accounts regardless.

What is the best way of setting up Family Sharing?

I just bought my son an iPad Mini and I am trying to decide on what is the best way of setting it up for him. The one thing I do know is that I do NOT want all the content that is my iPhone 6 to pop up on his iPad Mini. I want his iPad to be used for his games and educational stuff and his own music. I don't mind setting up a family photo album and share photos with the family. So is the Family Sharing option the best way of doing this based on what I just mentioned? Do I set him up with his own Apple ID? If so will everything still be based off my account so he won't have to create his own iTunes Library?
I always use iTunes gift cards to purchase music and content. Will I be able to continue to use them even if I want to put some new content on his iPad and not my iPhone? Do I enter in his Apple ID info. Can you restrict certain family members to just certain things for example you only want to share photos with one person whereas you might want to share your music with another family member?
Any suggestions on the best way of setting this up would great!
Thanks!

Hi DVX100Shooter,
Congratulations on getting your son a new iPad, I am sure he will enjoy it.
Family Sharing is one way of managing both purchases and content between members of a related group of people. Each member must have their own Apple ID. You can choose what music you wish to share with the family from your own account. See this article -
OS X Yosemite: Share purchases with your family
In particular the section titled Hide a purchase from other family members
The music library on your son's iPad is separate from yours, but under Family Sharing you agree to pay for all purchases made through the iTunes store. If you wish to control what is purchased you can set up the Ask to Buy option for any family member under adult age in your location. See this article for details -
Request and make purchases with Ask to Buy - Apple Support
Gift cards may not be used for billing of purchases under family sharing, with the exception that a family member may use gift cards to purchase their own content. See this article for information about Family Sharing billing policies -
Family purchases and payments - Apple Support
The shared family photo album is available to all family members.
Family Sharing - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Just use the same one on all devices.

What is the best way to set up iTunes to deal with a massive media library?

I have a really big media library...probably 7k-10k digital photos, close to 1,000 ripped CDs, and over 600 ripped DVDs, all stored on 1.5TB external hard disks in a 4-drive enclosure.
Due to a recent technical glitch, I find myself installing a new drive and moving the current library. My question is, what is the best way to set up iTunes' settings to deal with a media library that is both external to the Mac on which it runs, and spans multiple physical hard disk units?
I generally like the idea of iTunes organizing my library for me (i.e. keeping everything in Media Type>Artist>Album folders via the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder), but I'm not sure how that's going to work spanning multiple drives.
I just figure since I'm basically starting over with my iTunes installation, maybe there's a better way to do it.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

You can set them up as a software RAID using Disk Utility.
It'll simply be one large disk for all intents and purposes.

What's the best way to set up new imac for logic etc?

In brief:
Getting new imac (27", 3.4 i7, 8-16GB ram, 1TB HD). Will be using it mainly to run Logic Studio (loads of plugins) and Final Cut Express. I also have 2 external Hard drives one 500G one 1TB.
The last imac I bought was my first and just went ahead and threw everything at it not really knowing where things should go. This time I want to set things up correctly.
Basically, with what I've got, what is the best way to set things up. I.e where do I put logic files, samples, BFD2, Amplitube etc. Where do I put videos for use in FCE. Storing projects and backups for use with Time Machine.
Also noticed the new imac will only have 1 firewire port. I will need to plug in the Hard drives (daisy chained), camera and RME Fireface 800. Was thinking of getting a Thunderbolt Hard drive but they are expensive and hard to find.
Would really appreciate any help before I get the new machine and start messing things up again.
Thanks.

Adding to babowa, enable the system firewall in System Preferences>Security>Firewall tab. Click Advanced and check Stealth Mode.
Lion is a pretty steady and secure operating system, and as there really aren't MANY Mac viruses, there ARE viruses out there still. OS X is pretty good about letting you know if you do accidently download a virus, and it will help you throw it away if it detects one, such as the MACDefender virus. OS X has built in security features such as sandboxing that doesn't allow viruses in as easily as a Windows PC. As for hackers, as long as you have the firewall enabled and a secure password (for your computer and email accounts), then you should be fine.
It's the user that lets the virus in, not the computer (unless there's some untold serious vulnerability in OS X, which is highly unlikely). Keep your apps up to date, don't download pirated software, and be street smart on the internet. Don't download things or visit websites that you don't think are real. Safari includes a Phishing feature that automatically detects known phishing sites, protecting you from that big problem. Keep your passwords secure and you should be fine.
There are antivirus solutions out there, one notable one available in the AppStore is Intego's VirusBarrier (free and plus versions), if you feel you still need one.
I wouldn't worry about it. Windows users who switch to Mac are always asking these questions.
Here's some good reading as well

What is the best way to set up multiple Apple devices ?

Lime many of us here I have quite a few apple devices and I just wondered whet the best way to set them up with itunes / Apple
my Apple gear:
Mac mini 2.53 with Mountain Lion
Mac Mini 1.6 duo Snow Leopard
Iphone 5c (mine) running 8
Iphone 5c (wifes) running 8
iPad 2 (old) 64 GB running 8
iPad Mini 2 retina 32 GB running 7
g3 iMac (running Tiger) Juke box (semi retired ;-) now)
At the moment all devices (apart from new Mac mini 2 and the old G3) are set up under my Apple ID ... (1 Apple ID for all devices) ... obviously this has problems : my wife downloads an App it will appear on my phone; we have had to disable some of the messaging systems as at one point my wife was getting my messages et ... is there a better way to do this?

cosmiconion wrote:
one drawback of same Apple ID for store is that what she downloads will automatically appear on all devices
Do you mean the visibility of the purchase in the App Store (under purchases) or the installation of the app automatically on the other devices?
In the App Store on the device (under iOS 8 at least on the iPad, I couldn't get it to work on my iPhone 5 under iOS 8), you can hide purchases...just swipe it to the left in the Purchased list. You can then unhide the hidden purchase(s) if desired by using iTunes on the PC/Mac under your iTunes account.
Auto App updates (Automatic Downloads) can be controlled under: Settings/iTunes & App Store, scroll down to Automatic Downloads and disable those that you do not want.
