Two phones with the same icloud how to use storage only one the one

My daughter has a Iphone 4, I have a Iphone 5. Because she is to young to have a credit card that allows her to shop online, she uses mine to buy apps. The phone stands in my name and we share the same Iclud. She needs more storage on her phone, so I said yes for her to buy more storage on her phone. But it seems that the storage has been benefitted my phone instead. How can I switch the storage over on her phone?

Hi kristgjo,
If the phones share one iCloud account, then the storage upgrade applies to both devices. For example, I have an iPad and an iPhone that I back up to iCloud. Both use the same account, and both use the same iCloud storage.
If you go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, you will see both of your devices, and the amount of iCloud storage that they are using displayed. If you click on either of the devices, you will be able to see the size of the backup and the specific items that are being backed up and how large they are.
Cheers,
GB

TS4147 I have 2 iphones on the same icloud for 2 different users. We (the users) dont want identical contacts. How do I delete the contats from one phone without deleting them from the other phone.

You can't; not if the phones are sharing the same iCloud account. If you want to keep your data separate, migrate one of them to a different iCloud account. (You can continue to share the same iTunes ID.)
To do this, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (this won't effect the other phone), choose Keep on My iPhone, sign back in with a different Apple ID to set up a new account, turn on your iCloud data syncing, then choose Merge to upload the data to the new account. You can then go to icloud.com from your computer and delete the other person's data from each account.
Another option if you're only concerned about not sharing contacts but wish to share everything else, is to set up a second iCloud account on one of the phones and sync contacts with the secondary account. To do this, go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts to Off and choose Keep on My iPhone. Then go to Settings>Mail,Contacts, Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, sign in with a different Apple ID to create the secondary account, and turn Contacts to On. You can then go to icloud.com from your computer and delete the other person's contacts from each account.

HT1848 How do I transfer the songs from my desktop to my iPad using the same iTunes account? I can only sync the other way. Thanks

DaisyDoodle,
The songs on your Shuffle should still be in your iTunes library. That means you should just be able to connect your Nano to the same iTunes library and sync it just as you would with your Shuffle. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, or iPhones you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or account.
As for preparing the Shuffle for your husband, just restore it via iTunes and then let him sync it to his own iTunes library or if its the same iTunes library, let him configure it to sync only his content.
Here are instructions on how to restore the Shuffle if need be.

If multiple users will be using the same iPad, how can I lock it so the settings cannot be changed, specifically the languages(students are changing the languages)?

If multiple users will be using the same iPad, how can I lock it so the settings cannot be changed, specifically the languages(students are changing the languages)?

Even with Apple Configurator most of the settings cannot be locked, and that includes the language settings. Most schools and organizations seem to just accept that they'll have to reconfigure the iPads on a regular basis.

My daughter and I each have iTunes libraries on the same computer, how can I move some songs from one library to the other?

My daughter and I each have iTunes libraries on the same computer, how can songs from one library be moved to the other?

So, if she purchased a song from iTunes in her library, I will also have to purchase the same song to add to my library?

Just upgraded to iOS 7 and messages are showing up on multiple phones within our family. We all use the same iCloud account. I believe this happened the last time there was a major iOS upgrade but I can't remember what the fix was! Help!

The four members of my family just upgraded to iOS 7 last night. We now find that we are receiving each other's text messages. It's possible that during the installs, a few members may not have "unckecked" the multiple phone numbers they can be reached on. I know that I had to uncheck my husbands work mobile number and work email address as they came up as choices for contacting me. So now I am receiving some of my daughter's text messages on my phone - she's not impressed! My husband is receiving my texts etc... It's a mess! I appreciate any help anyone can offer!

I had this problem last night as well. Only my daughter upgraded to iOS7 and she had an old phone of mine. When she upgraded, the phone asked for my apple ID and then continued as normal. However, after the upgrade, any text message that I recieved, she also recieved. I am pretty sure my wife thought I was hammered when she started texting me and my daughter began answering her not having any clue what she was texting about. Anyway, this only occurred with texts from other family members, not from texts I received from friends who are obviously not on our account (we have Verizon BTW). To resolve this issue, and it isn't a short resolution.... there are two options... One, simply erase everyting on the phone.... I don't like iTunes 11, so we were unable to back up her phone. I made her go through her 600 photos, delete the ones she didn't want and email the ones she wanted to herself, and then we wiped the phone clean and rebooted it... go into Settings, General, Reset, Erase All Content and Settings. The second option, if you have iTunes 11 is to back up the phones one at a time, and then go into Settings, General, Reset, Erase All Content and Settings. Either of these options wipes the phone clean of all information, text contacts pictures etc and then you have to re-enter all of your individual information. When you do that, make sure that no one is on the same iTunes account. Theoretically, after you do this, you plug back into your computer and SYNC your phone from the last back-up. This resolved the problem for us. I don't know if there is an easier solution, be we tried logging in and out of our iTunes Accounts, turning the power on and off, and nothing changed. So, we had to go the more difficult route to avoid mass confusion with family texting.

Thank you Gramps. It took some time, but I've got it working now. I had to re-do all the user authentication actions from scratch for one of the databases, but it's finally behaving itself now. I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction.

HT201365 I have 2 iPads on the same account how can I see both in the find my iPhone/iPad app because I can only see 1 iPad?

Need help!!!

Make sure that you set up your iCloud account on both devices and that Find My iPhone is turned On. You can also verify if your two iPads' location by signing in to www.icloud.com then Find My iPhone.

How can I get me Ipad or Ipod to change the sequence of how it shuffles music? It always shuffles in the same order, not randomly so I only get the hear the same songs in the same supposedly shuffled sequence. Doesn't seem shuffled at all

I have a number of external hard drives connected to my system - when I am powering down and I try to eject the drives before powering down the system tells me the drives can't be ejected because some other program may be using them. I have no other programs running and have to force eject the drives. This is something new that's happening and I'm worried it may mean somebody is accessing my system from outside my network. Anybody else have this issue?

What exactly is the material you have? What does item properties say about it? If it's too small you'll have to scale it up, but if you scale it up a lot it's going to get soft and pixely.

Can you backup more than one iphone to the same icloud account?

My wife and I both have iphones and for simplicity's sake have always used the same itunes account and now with IO5 find that our itunes and icloud accounts are the same. Before enabling backup for our iphones we wondered if you can backup two different iphones to the same icloud account? Or will only one of us be able to backup to icloud and the other have to backup locally on our PC?

You can back both up with the same Apple ID (iCloud account). They will be kept as separate and unique backups.

How to package different content so that the same license can be used for all content.

1) If packaging all the content at the same time, use the same instance of DRMParameters every time you call MediaEncrypter.encryptContent(). All content packaged using the exact same DRMParameters object will be associated with the same license.
2) If packaging content at different times, but want to have all the content associated with the same license, you need to use V2KeyParameters.setContentEncryptionKey(). The first time you package a piece of content, you would use ContentEncryptionKey.generate() to generate a new key/license ID. To use the same key/license for later content, you need to store the info in ContentEncryptionKey, so you can pass in the same values later for the new content.

To package content at different times using the same license, you need to implement the following:
Call ContentEncryptionKey.generate to generate a new key and license ID.
On your V2KeyParameters, call setContentEncryptionKey and pass in the object generated in step 1.
Call MediaEncrypter.encryptContent and pass in the V2KeyParameters (via DRMParameters), as usual.
Store the contents of ContentEncryptionKey, so the same values can be used again later. The key, license ID, and packaging date should all be stored.
When you want to package additional content using this license, lookup the stored key, license ID, and packaging date and pass these into the ContentEncryptionKey constructor to create a ContentEncryptionKey instance.
On your V2KeyParameters, call setContentEncryptionKey and pass in the object generated in step 5.
Call MediaEncrypter.encryptContent and pass in the V2KeyParameters (via DRMParameters), as usual.
The media packaged in steps 3 and 7 should now be protected using the same license.

I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring.

I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring. One phone is for work and one is for private and I don't need both phones to ring from one call. It's bizarre.......is this supposed to be like this? If so where can I turn it off?? And while we are at it iOS8 has installed iBooks on both of my phones and iTunes won't let me uninstall it. I don't need or want iBooks on my phones.

Hi,
There are two easy fixes to this.
One, you can set up Family Sharing, in which you can have two different iCloud Accounts, yet still share the same apps, music, media etc.
Two, go to Settings and turn-off "Handoff". This can be found under the General page.
Hope this helps!

You got it with that same apple id thing. You can use different apple id's, but then they will not sync. Apple does allow as many free apple id's as you want, but they are in the business to make money.

We use our Iphones with the icloud to set up scheduling of jobs. Multiple phones share the same icloud for this purpose. We recently had a change in leadership. How do I completely delete the icloud account? Or do I just create a new one/forget old 1

Multiple phones share one Icloud account. We use it to schedule jobs and crew leaders read the cloud to get the information of the job that needs to be done. However, we recently had a change of leadership and we think this person might have logged into or put our cloud on his phone to sabotage our business. I changed the password but that didn't fix the situation. I could put a job on the cloud with an old phone that was logged in with the old password and everyone with the new password would still see the job. I have since created a whole new cloud account which seems to have eliminated the "future" issue of sabotage however I would like to completely eliminate that old account...any advise?

Everyone needs to go to Settings (or System Preferences)>iCloud and click 'Delete account' or 'Sign out' as applicable (it's the same thing). Then they can sign into the new account you have created and proceed from there. You can't actually delete the old account from the server but you can just ignore it.
