Two apps share the screen
I'm hoping to find an OS X equivalent to a nice feature in Win XP. Say I've got two apps open, a browser and a text document, and I want to divide the screen space equally between the two. In Windows, you can control+click the two app buttons down on the task the bar, then right-click either one of them and select an option that instantly fills the screen by equally dividing the space between the two apps, horizontally or vertically.
Is there an OS X equivalent to this, or do you have to position and resize each window manually?
It's not a deal-breaker, but it's one of the Windows features I miss the most.

Pretty sure it is.
Give Lenovo a call.

I have an iMac, and iPhone. I've had my Apple ID for a few years.
My wife got an iPhone 4S a few months back and the salesperson at Verizon set her Apple ID the same as mine, but gave her a different password. I don't know if this was ok, but that is what happened.
So, yesterday, we both upgraded to IOS6 and I had no problem logging in to my iPhone with my Apple ID. When my wife went to log in, she was told that she was entering the wrong password. We entered the password over and over again and still was wrong.
The question is... can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords? (I have the feeling her iPhone is thinking that since it's my Apple ID, it wants my password.)
If not, can I still set up a new Apple ID for her even through she's had the iPhone for a few months?
Thanks.Hi
You shold follow your feelings, its probably right most of the time.
You can have 5 different devices hucked upp to one Apple ID. What I have done is that my wife and I have one Apple ID, when I bye a new app on my phone, She gets it to. Thats nice.
You can allways set upp a new Apple ID for your wife. -
I download two apps on the apps store. And they won't download because my phone won't ask me my Apple ID. Why do I do?
Is this a new Apple iD? If it is, and you have already set it up, then you have two options:
1. Temporarily put a Credit Card or Gift Card on the account to download the free app. If you put a credit card, then once you have downloaded the app, you should be able to go into your Account preferences and change the payment option to = None.
2. You can download the fee App, and then set up a new Apple ID.

HT204053 can two devices share the same apple id
can two devices share the same apple id
Yes.
According to this Support Article > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. -
Two computers share the same WI-fi Modem . When computer A reads a message it is marked as read on both PC's, not allowing computer B to see what must still be read. Email is Thunderbird.
Please help, Thank you for this online support optionImap wasn't designed for this kind of multi user situation. It assumes that you the account owner will be using it to manage one account via multiple devices. So once you have read a message it has been read, regardless of which device you were using at the time.
You appear to be describing a situation where you want more than one user to read each message, without anyone knowing if anyone else has read it or even dealt with it. Frankly, I can't imagine a set of circumstances where this workflow would make sense or be useful.
You can do various things such as manually setting messages as unread, or moving them from one folder to another to indicate that they have been processed, but much of this relies on users being thorough and conscientious.
You may need to be running your own server to do this sort of email message managing, if you really need to fork a message so it gets to multiple recipients. Managing which users see a particular message is a job for a server, not the end-user's email client. -
My iPhone3GS has started crashing. I'll be mid-phone call, or using an app, when the screen will go dark. I'll have to do a restart. It dumps to the warning screen that there's no power and needs to be plugged in.
Once I connect the phone to a power source, in a couple of minutes it's ready to roll again, and displaying a "full battery" icon.
The phone is almost always fully charged when this happens, and I don't get a crash when the phone is plugged into a power source.
Took my iphone to apple store, they informed that battery is very good and there is no need for replacement. Might be there is a problem with iphone motherboard. But they can't repair it as my 3GS crossed warranty.
Where should I go to repair this. Within 2 years...this 32GB 3GS is almost garbage for me with no support from apple. I am ready to send it to apple for repairs and pay the repair charges.
I tried everything... deep reset ... factory settings .... nothing is working... Apple staff pl. take care of your customers ...This is a User to User Forum... You are Not Addressing Apple here...

Can i share the screen of ibook running 9.2 classic?
I need to run Photoshop on System 9 iBook and would like to share the screen from my iMac running Mtn Lion. Is that possible?

I have an Ipod touch. Since this morning I am not able to open any of my purchased apps. The screen briefly flashes but the apps don't start. Can anyone help?
- Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then download/install new app.

I am trying to download an app. but the screen on my iphone 4S has frozen when I reached the screen saying it was ready to download and I was
seeing an "OK" button to press. Nothing happens and I can't get out of the screen. When I shut off the phone and cut it back on and go to "apps"
the frozen screen appears again. Any help???Have you had an issue with a previous purchase from iTunes or has your credit card expired? Even though it is a free app, you may have to update your payment information, since you already have a credit card on file. They have to be updated in iTunes.
If none of that applies, try signing out, Restrt and sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try again.
if that doesn't work, you may have to contact iTunes Store Support and seek their assistance.

My app store does not load the featured apps. The screen remains empty everytime I open it.
Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Was skiing with a lifeproof on and my phone did not get wet. On the ride back my phone was struggling to send/receive messages and had trouble opening apps. The screen froze and I hit the sleep button; since then, it has not turned on. Any suggestions on what to do?
It probably got too cold and shut down. Warm it to room temperature, then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears.
