Unsyncing two laptops using the same gmail account

Hi,
I am transferring all data to my Macbook Pro from my old macbook
I set up gmail on the new Macbook Pro and it was immediately Synced across from the old to the new laptop. GREAT! But unfortunately NOT great!!
I now cannot do anything without it affecting the gmail on BOTH machines.
I need to remove ALL the emails etc from the old machine Before I sell it and I can't without it taking out everything on the NEW laptop as well.
So How do I UNSYNC them?
Thanks for your help.

Hi again,
Sorry I thought it had worked! I removed both me gmail accounts as you instructed and then then went in and tested it again but unfortunately its still removing from both accounts on the two laptops.
So I went into Firefox browser Sync setting and Unsynced any devices I had synced removed all google cookies and logged out an in again but when I delete on my old macbook gmail it still removes it from the gmail account in the new one as well. So the UNSYNC function on Macbook Pro and on Firefox doesn't seem to be working as it should
Any other things I should do?
Thanks again

  • HT1694 Is there a way to have emails sent to both your ipad and desktop and then be able to delete them off of your ipad while having them stay on the computer? Two people use the same email account.

    My parents use the same email address and both want to access all the emails that come in. My mom uses the ipad and my dad using the desktop. Recently the ipad started deleting emails off of the desktop when you deleted them off the ipad. Is there a way to get the messages deleted from the ipad to stay in the inbox on the desktop? Thanks!

    Yes, that would require a POP type email account. What you describe now is the proper functioning of an IMAP type email account.
    Contact your email provider to see if they can help.

  • Can I have two ipads use the same itunes account on 2 computers?

    I just purchased a new iPad for my wife.  I currently have an iPad 2 with a ton of apps.  I;d like to be able to have her use the apps that I've already purchased, but still allow her the ability to sync the new iPad to her computer.  Can i do this?

    Problem. You can't share apps or purchased content between two different iTunes accounts. The iPad(s) will be completely resynched (removing apps not associated with the current account) each time you synch, depending on how you synch. IMHO, not worth the effort.

  • IChat between two people using the same .mac account

    I am in Singapore. My wife is in NY. We are both using our family .mac account. She is using the account from the computer I left in NY, and I am using it on the computer I have brought here. We both have cameras hooked up to the respective computers. Is there some way that we can video chat with each other using the I chat and our single .mac account. We are both running ichat 4.03

    No. Use a trial/expired .Mac account or free AIM account with iChat on the other computer.

  • Can you have different face time accounts when two iPads use the same iTunes account?

    I use one iTunes account for all apple products but want to use face time. Can I set it up so when we are not together we can face time each other.

    Yes. In settings, FaceTime, just add an email. Email acts as a phone number. When you place a call to the other ipad, just make sure it's to that email.

  • Have been told if you use the same itunes account with two iphone you will receive each others text messages, is this true

    Have been told if you use the same itunes account on two iphones, you will receive each others text messages, is this true?

    you can use the same itunes id for purchases and so on, but have separate icloud id's for imessaging and all the icloud stuff. it's not preferable, but it isn't a problem either.

  • HT202213 can two apple ids use the same itunes account?

    I'm pretty new to apple products and have an itunes question. My husband and I just bought iPhones and have separate apple id's. We will also using an iPod. Is it possible to use itunes with both id's? Is there any way to share the files between both of us?

    If you want to share a single AppleID with a single iTunes Library, then simply sync both devices to that iTunes library using the same user account.
    If you want to sync two AppleIDs to one iTunes library, in iTunes on the computer, login and authorize each AppleID, then sync the devices to that common iTunes library in the same user account.
    You do not do anything on the device being sync'd itself - it all has to do with how iTunes that you are syncing to is set up and what AppleIDs are authorized there.  You can sync multiple devices to iTunes, just be sure that each device gets a unique device name in the iTunes sidebar.
    To then use unique AppleIDs for iCloud and iMessage on a iOS device, first, make an iCloud account with the AppleID you want to use (go to http://www.iCloud.com), then set up that iCloud account on the device with that ID and password.  In iMessage, just log out with whatever AppleID you are using now, log in with the new AppleID and it will reauthorize, now linking that device with the new iMessage account just created with that AppleID (your iMessage primary account ID is always the AppleID used to initially create and verify the iMessage account).

  • I have multiple apple devices mainly used between me and my wife , my question is that can i have two sets of contacts backed up to icloud one for her devices and one for my devices using the same itunes account

    i have two sets of devices one ipad, iphone and mac which i use and one iphone ipad and mac which my wife uses
    now is it possible to have two sets of contacts and calendar synchronised for her devices and one for my devices using the same icloud account
    i dont want a separate itunes account as we use the same music books and apps to be automatically downloaded which is very convenient
    please guide

    You can set up different iCloud accounts on each device using different Apple IDs (to keep your mail, calendars, contacts, etc. separated), and still share the same iTunes account (in Settings>Store on your device).  There is no requirement that you use the same Apple ID for purchases and for iCloud.

  • Using the same iTunes account, can two iPads use different phone nubers for Factime?

    Using the same iTunes account and two different iPads, is it possible to associate each iPad to a different phone number?

    They must be iPhone numbers and only if you have two iPhones that are associated with the same Apple ID. If you don't have two iPhone numbers, you can use another email address one one of the iPads in order to use FaceTime and Messages on both devices that are both using the same Apple ID.

  • I have a iphone4 and a ipad2 and i use 2 laptops to sync them individually, but i used the same apple account. Now I have lost one laptop.

    Hey everyone.
    I have an iphone4 and an ipad2. I used to sync my phone with one computer and the ipad with another. but i used the same apple account.
    Now the problem is that i lost the computer to which i was syncing the iphone. Is there a way that i can start to sync the iphone with the computer that i use for my ipad and not loose any data.
    Please help!

    No.  Syncing with a different computer/library will wipe the content from the device and replace it with content from the new library.
    All of the media should be in the iTunes library already, at least what was purchased from iTunes.

  • HT204380 Is there a way of using the same FaceTime account on multiple devices?

    Is there a way of using the same FaceTime account on multiple devices?

    Yes you can use the same Apple ID on multiple devices and FaceTime with each one. You have to associate a different email address on all but one of the devices.
    Lets say you have two iPads and two iPods..... All sharing the same Apple ID. When you set up FaceTime on three of the devices, you have to associate another mail address in Settings>FaceTime>You can be reached for Video calls at>Add Another email address. Add a different email address in that setting and let Apple verify the address.
    After that email address has been verified by Apple (they send you an email to that address so look for it in the inboxes of that email account and follow the instructions in the email), then remove the Apple ID email address on each of those three devices. You can use the primary Apple ID email on the fourth device.
    Obviously, you have to have additional email addresses but you can set up free email accounts with AOL, Yahoo, gmail .... and you can use the email address just for FaceTime if you like.

  • Different apps on different devices using the same itunes account

    I have two iPads for my kids and one iPhone all using the same iTunes account.  I want to be able to have apps on my phone that the Ipads cannot see.  can this be done by using multiple accounts on my iPhone?

    Hi jacyjflorin,
    Having multiple iTunes accounts can cause confusion.
    Would Restrictions on the iPads work for you?
