You can share the same Apple ID for purchasng form the iTunes and app stores without any problems, but you should all used separate iCloud accounts with separate Apple IDs. (You are not required to use the same ID for iCloud and other services as you do for the iTunes store.) This will prevent you from ending up with merged data. You should also use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

HT201251 I want to use 30 ipads to run kiosk software in my restaurant. Can I use one Apple ID (and one credit card) for all devices

I want to use 30 ipads to run kiosk software in my restaurant. Can I use one Apple ID (and one credit card) for all devices?

Alternatively you can always manage your iPads (does not matter how many) with a single apple id and all reporting to your account under "find my device" service. Keeping an eye on all your units. Additionally as you mentioned these are for your Restaurant you may find the solutions offered by this company who creates apps and hardware for this purpose: http://www.spartakioskpro.com
Additionally if you expand beyond those 30 iPads to say 300 you will want to enable or plan on MDM as your best option to automate every ipad to use the same profile and app and ios configuration while also keeping a close eye on all of them via online MDM services like: https://meraki.cisco.com/products/systems-manager

I use photoshop CS3. Shortly, when I try to use one of the tools, they react only with the eraser. So I cannot use the other tools. I tried to reset in general preferences all warnings. Then I can use the tools again, but with the next picture I get stuck

We are using one apple ID and password for 5 devices. I would like to know how to give my children their own apple ID to use on their I touches. Can I do this without them loosing all their contact details, music and games? Any help much appreciated.

We Have set up 5 differNet apple devices ( iPhones, I touches and iPad) so that they all use the same apple I'd and password. I would now like to give each family member their own apple I'd and password. Can I do this without loosing any of the data on each persons gadget? Thanks!

I think I will do this. I will use my apple ID and set face time and message to work independently. That solves one problrem. My other problem and maybe my bigger problem is that if I am using my apple ID, how do I iflter all of this so that my kids don't see my contacts, get my apps, etc. ?

You can get your information back if you have previously done a backup in iTunes or iCloud.

Go to this site and click on how to restore from backup.
This will help you with putting the information back onto your device.

My daughter and I both use one apple id and one icloud id. How can we separate our stuff without loosing any of the music that has been purchased?

My daughter and I share an apple id and an icloud id. I want to separate my stuff from my daughter's. What is the best way to do this so she doesn't lose all the music she has purchased?

There is actually something you can do with the settings on your devices. As long as you only want your personal information split, you can use two IDs on the same phone to do it.
Your Apple ID is stored in 4 places in your Settings app. Only the iTunes and App Stores settings governs purchases, so that is the one you both want to be signed into the same ID for. The other 3 are iCloud, FaceTime, and Messages (under Send and Receive). FaceTime, iCloud, and Messages are the settings that use your personal data, but do not affect purchases. Signing into a different ID for each of you on those three and keeping the Store settings the same for both will let you keep your personal information the separate, but still share purchases.
If you need it to do something else, let us know and there might be something else we can do.

We have 3 kids with ipods, all on one apple id and they complain that they get each others messages, apps etc. what can I do to change this?

We have 3 kids with an ipod touch each. All are on one apple id (mine, so they have to come to me to authorise purchases) and they complain that they get each others messages, apps etc. What can I do to set this up differently, so they can each manage their own content etc but not make purchases?

Go onto all iPods, and turn on "Restrictions" and disable installing apps. The apps do auto download, and the only way around the messages problem is to make 3 Apple IDs. When installing apps, it will ask for a "restrictions" password, and you can enter that.

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

What cables are best when connecting apple tv, my HD tv has 2 HDMI slots but they are both in use, one for Sky and one for cinema. There are no hdmi slots spare on the cinema either ...

Mine has four Seriously shauntana the splitter is easy, a simple click to changre feed and eventually you will damage the HDMI port or cable by taking it in and out. True you can only use one feed at a time nut you can only use one port on the telly at one time too. I used it on my old one port telly for PS3 and Sky and it worked a treat.

HT5622 I have been using one apple ID for my family as it makes it easier to manage itunes purchases/rentals on all of our devices. Now that my kids are getting old and my wife has recently purchased an Iphone, I can see that I need to change my strategy

I have been using one apple ID for my family as it makes it easier to manage itunes purchases/rentals on all of our devices. Now that my kids are getting old and my wife has recently purchased an Iphone, I can see that I need to change my strategy. I plan to add a few more iphones to the family very soon. What is your recommendation to manage all of our devices (iphones, itouch, apple tv) for my family? Can I continue to function with one apple ID or is it time to take the leep into attempting to manage multi-apple ID's?

There's a few ways of managing multiple devices on a single computer (and keeping seperate content on each). The following document is worth checking through:
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer

Any problems using one Apple ID to span across 6+ devices?

Hi everyone (or at least one person with a kind heart),
I am looking for any guidance for my wife and myself. Quick background, we are both long time users of the following devices:
A) Her 4s 32 GB iPhone
B) My 4s 32 GB iPhone
C) Her old iPod
D) My Mini 64 GB iPad
E) Her 64GB iPad
F) Our 256GB Macbook Air
F is the newest member of the family. I originally had a PC Dell which I synced all of the devices to two distinct Windows accounts.
My wife's Windows account & my Windows account. We have two distinct Apple I.D(s).
Everything synced swimmingly on the old Dell. Well, the swimming got rough when my old Dell went kablooey!
Fast-forwad a few days and I swallowed my PC pride and jumped ship to a Macbook. After getting the dreaded "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID" my hunt was on for a solution as I loved my new MacBook. I did not want to revisit the PC world, again. Shortly after, I discovered and joined this-thread-already-in-progress . With no input from Apple, I thought about abandoning the idea and thought - could we (my wife and I) simply merge to one Apple ID, thus resolving the above mentioned warning that "This computer is...blah...blah...blah"?
Our storage consumption is not that large as we have always tended to have very similar libraries. We started the Apple ID's so long ago, we just got lazy and always kept it that way.
Am I not seeing some pitfall that will sour this idea? Meaning, let's say I pitch my wife's Apple ID? And we begin to use only my Apple ID?
1) My immediate concern is that I think both of our Apple I.D.'s are at the maximum of the "5 out of 5" number of device warnings due to all of the various Dell, Thinkpads and now Macbook computers I have owned over the years combined with all of the various iPhone, iPod, iPad models we have owned during the same time.
2) Besides simply picking and choosing the various new purchases under our newly merged Apple ID, is there any other sort of problem that I may not be seeing?
3) Is Apple likely to reset the "5 out of 5" ticker due to all of the above?
4) Oh yeah, I have two Apple TVs. Does that even matter?
Thanks in advance for reading this.

Razor, thank you taking the time to help out! I really mean that. In digesting your scenario and advice, I think I do have at least one question. Am I not remembering the "5 out of 5" warning correctly? You are saying 10 devices but I guess I either read it wrong (very likely) but I thought there was some limit to the number of times you transfer a library of music to a new computer (i.e. not devices)? I easily could be confused here. In reading what you wrote again, Apple wants to limit not the computer housing the library but the devices that are sharing the library? Thus, since I am only at 5 - I am good to go?
In regards to iTunes Match - we both have it (i.e. my wife and myself). So, I am covered there? All I need to do is pick one Apple ID as the "Master ID" (probably my ID), then plug my wife's devices into the MacBook, sync it and then iTunes Match should push-down-from-the-cloud all of her purchases?
That's interesting about iMessage. Not sure if I have my mind wrapped around that entirely, but I will re-read your post again. And in regards to testing my marriage with Apple ID - that rang truer than you could possibly appreciate. Or maybe not?
I probably have more questions just percolating under the surface - so I will likely holler out to you again until you get bored or annoyed with me. Something my wife says is a skill I've perfected.
Thanks again!
Glen

I have two iPads and one iPod Touch and they are using iTunes on the same computer.

I have two iPads and one iPod Touch and they are using iTunes on the same computer. I have not been able to backup the second iPad. Is there a reason this is happening? iPad one is an iPad 1 and the second is an iPad 2 not sure if this has something to do with it. I just tried to upgrade to IOS 5 and when it went to back up it gave me an error code (-5000). I tried to back up using iTunes and it told me that my backup was corrupted and to delete it and try to back up again. When I went into the device portion where I was instructed to go to delete the backup I found that there was no backup for my iPad just the iPad 1.
I have synced many times and all of the apps, podcasts, music, etc... show up in iTunes, and iTunes recognizes that is is the second iPad but there is not a backup for it.
Any Ideas?

No NAS other than an Apple one includes native support for AFP. They all use an open source package called Netatalk that is junk. Many years ago Apple deprecated the old security modules that Netatalk uses.
The easiest solution is to hack up Lion so that it will connect with the old security protocol. Do a search for "lion dhx2" or something like that. Another option is to update your NAS to a version of Netatalk that includes support for DHX2. That is easier said than done. Netatlk isn't as "open" as other open source packages.

HT4623 When an app is download with one apple id and later on needs update thn how to update with other apple if ist one is not functioning?

When an app is downloaded with one apple id and needs update later on then how to change apple id on app store for updting that app???

You can't. All apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to obtain them, and cannot be updated using any other ID.
