Two separate calls using the same account

I just tested this to see what happened and I may be late to the party, but I didn't expect it to work.Logged in using Account 1 on my Mac and called account 2 on my iPhone. All well and good.Then I asked someone else to log into account 1 on THEIR Mac and call account 3 on their phone.It worked. Two separate calls to two diffent endpoints, at the same time, from the same account.Strange and also useful

Hi and welcome to the Skype Community,
Yes, you can have multiple simultaneous calls from one account. It's a legacy of the peer-to-peer heritage of how Skype was built to allow for that. Good to hear you find it as useful as we do.

Can i use ichat between two separate macs on the same mobile me account?

Can i use ichat over two separate macs on the same mobile me account?
I have an imac at home and may be getting a macbook for work. Can i use my mobile me account to chat between the two macs or would i need a mobile me account per mac??

Hi,
No.
You need two names that can login into AIM.
In iChat you can use the Get an iChat Account which shows after you use the Plus Button in Accounts.
This will give you a free @mac.com Name
AIM Names are also free.

I can use the same account on two computers?

I can use the same account on two computers?

You can use the same serial number on two computers, given the conditions in the end-user license agreement (You cannot have Lightroom using the same serial number in use on two computers at the same time, and both installations must be for your own personal use.)

I need to install cc on two macs. My Macbook Pro and my Imac. Can I use the same account?

I have two machines I use. One primarily for photography on the move and another for mostly Indesign work. Question is can I use the same account on both as it will never be simultaneous.

I doubt it is possible to run two instances of iTunes on the computer at the same time. To do so would require two users to be signed in and running iTunes under each user.
The better solution would be to either clean up and merge the two libraries or have iTunes running on a second computer.

Can I have a Face Time conversation between two Apple devices using the same Apple ID?

Can I have a Face Time conversation between two Apple devices using the same Apple ID?

Yes, you can, but the two devices can't have the same e mail address associated with both. Each, device needs its own unique e mail ADR. In your case, the iPod can call your iPhone if you use the phone number, but the iPhone can not call your iPod because it must use the e mail address, and if the email address is the same on both, the iPhone will think it's calling itself, so the call will not go through.

How do I set up two email address on the same account?

Using Mail in Mac OS X 10.6.2 and moving to Mac for the first time, I have been unable to set up two email addresses on the same account. Entering them, separated by commas, as advised in the Help does not seem to work. I have tried making them both the same password and have tried separating the passwords with a comma but no luck. Unable to set up another account for the second address because it correctly tells me that the account already exists.
Is there a way?
Thanks for any help.

After a comprehensive trial and error session, using a new Guest Account each time to be sure of no contamination from the previous trial, I have finally cracked it!
The problem was logging on to the outgoing server.
Setting up the first account was fairly straightforward but if I allow Mail to do it automatically I am unable to send because Mail has defaulted to 'Authentication Required' when my server does not require it. Setting the account manually without authentication enables send and receive to work OK.
If i try to set up the second account automatically, Mail crashes.
If I set it up manually and choose 'No Authentication', Mail crashes.
If I set it up manually and choose 'Authentication Required' and enter the full email address as the User Name together with password, Mail crashes.
If I set it up manually and choose 'Authentication Required' and enter the first part of the email address together with password, Mail crashes.
However, if I set it up manually and choose 'Authentication Required' and enter the first part of the email address as User Name and no password, Mail accepts it and sets up the account.
At this point the account receives mail but cannot send it.
If I go into the Mail preferences and try to edit the outgoing server details, Mail will not accept no Authentication.
I eventually found that if I uncheck the 'Always Use This Server' box, all account then use the server on the first account, which is correctly set up.
Now I have my four email accounts all able send and receive.
One little concern remains. In Outlook Express I could look at the properties of a received email and see what address it had come from, together with many other details. I haven't found out yet whether this can be done in Mail. I just wonder whether if I reply to some email, it will appear to have come from a different address from the one it was sent to.
Thanks again for all the inputs.

TS4036 I purchased an iphone for my daughter and we are using the same account and she deleted some contacts from her phone and they were deleted off of my contacts as well. Is there a way to use icloud backup to reinstall the contacts to my phone?

I purchased an iphone for my daughter and we are using the same account and she deleted some contacts from her phone and they were deleted off of my contacts as well. Is there a way to use icloud backup to reinstall the contacts to my phone?

Welcome to the Apple community.
You can only restore them from a Computer backup. This has occurred because you are sharing an iCloud account. ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, that way you can each manage your own mail, contacts, calendars, documents etc and avoid unintentional deletions and unwanted editing. If there is information you wish to share between you, this can be done with a secondary account.
Having separate iCloud accounts, doesn't mean you have to have separate iTunes accounts, so whilst you keep your personal data separate, you can continue to share music, apps, books, TV shows, movies etc.

I am using the same account for both my Apple TVs but not able to open the movie I purchased on both tvs?

I have two Apple TV's one in my living room and one in our bedroom. I purchased a movie series on the tv in the living room but was not able to open on the tv in the bedroom. I am using the same account for both Apple TV's. Can anyone assist?

Wecome to the Apple Community.
For the avoidance of doubt, are you able to play the TV show on the Apple TV on which you bought it and it is a TV show and not a movie is it.
What do you mean can't open it, what exactly happens.

I currently have an iPad and thinking of buying another for my wife. When I download books from iBooks will they download automatically on both iPads when i use the same account information?

If I have two iPads and download from iBooks, will they download automatically on both iPads?

You will need to download the book on each iPad. also you need to use the same account on both devices.

Help!

Deleting an iCloud account only deletes it from the Device, not from iCloud. In iOS 8, the name of this setting changed to "Sign Out" as that is a better reflection of what actually happens. Your iCloud data remains on the server, available to devices still signed into the account, but the device you sign out of the account on is disconnected from the account, and as a result, the iCloud data from that account is removed from the device. It will redownload to the device should you sign back into the account.
The only issue you'll run into when you switch between accounts is with my photo stream photos older than 30 days. When you delete (or sign out of) and account, your photo stream photos are deleted along with the other data from the account in question. However, unlike other data which remains on the server and can redownload to your device when you sign back in, my photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days. When you sign back in, you will only get back my photo stream photos added in the last 30 days (as older photos are no longer in iCloud to redownload). Like other account data, any my photo stream photos on your other devices signed into the account are unaffected by this. If you want to keep older my photo stream photos on your device as you change iCloud accounts, save them to your camera roll before deleting (signing out of) the account.

Downloading apps on 2 machines using the same account. - Help PLEASE ?

Hi, new here so Hi Everybody.
I have an iPhone which is sync'd with my Windows machine at home, all works fine.
I am at work and wanted to download an App that was 150meg. The app is too big via 3G so bought it via my work PC (and paid £12.00 for it !!!) using the same account login details as home.
Now, I am trying to get this app on my iPhone but i am unable to do this without erasing all the current apps i have on my iPhone...
Can anyone shed any light on this ?
Have i wasted my money ? Or can i download this app on my home PC when i get home ?
Is there any way i can get it on my iPhone without deleting the other apps ?
Any help is greatly received.
Cheers
Demsie

Try to redownload the app at your home computer. Since you can sync only to one itune library you can't downlaod and sync onto another without erasing the content from the other one.
If you use wifi on your phone you can downlaod the app directly and do the "transfer purchases" at home. (right click on your iphone in the device list)
