US Devices to be Used in Germany

I am moving to Germany and would like to understand if any of my cellular devices will work their with local carriers. Here is what we have:
iPhone 4s - carrier is AT&T, contract completed
iPhone 5s - carrier is Verizon, contract completed
iPad2 - wireless was through AT&T
We were also going to purchase an iPad mini with cellular, is their a specific company (no contract) that should be purchased through or does it matter without a contract. We may upgrade our iPhones to an iPhone 6 as well without a contract.
So my question is whether these devices have the ability to get local data plans / cellular plans in Germany or not. Does the carrier chosen make any difference if we needed to purchase a replacement.
Thanks for any and all help!
Pete

A permanent move or fixed term ?

Multiple devices on iCloud using one account

with only 1 apple account and multiple family members using iOS devices and iCloud, changing data on one device changes it on all of them, how can i separate the devices?

Hi Hammers1.
From what I understand you want to all use the same iCloud Apple ID for:
- Find my iPhone
- Calendars (diary)
- Photo Stream
You want to be able to have separate:
- Contacts
- FaceTime accounts
If that is correct you can do the following:
1. On each device under Settings > iCloud use the same Apple ID.
- Enable Calendars, Find my iPhone, and Photo Stream (and any other data you want to share)
- Do not enable Contacts. If it is already enabled and you choose to turn it off you will get an alert to keep or delete contacts. Removing them inthis method will only remove them from THAT device, not the account itself.
2. Each member can setup their own iCloud account under Settings > Mail Contacts Calendars > iCloud and enable Contacts (and other data types depending) if they want. Or, they can just keep their contacts local on their device, sync through another service, etc.
An article that may be of use is http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4020 which talks about using multiple iCloud accounts on one device, and what features can be used on two accounts at the same time. For example, a device can only use Photo Stream with one iCloud account, but can have two iCloud accounts syncing different calendar data at the same time.
3. For Face Time, you can disable this or setup any other Apple ID on each device by going to Settings > FaceTime > tap the Apple ID and Sign Out.
One thing to note also if someone decides to say, use the shared calendar and then their own calendar by setting up two iCloud accounts, they can set up the default calendar under Settings > Mail Contacts Calendar. This can help if they want to make sure events they enter on their iPhone only go to their calendar, and not she shared calendar. You can also edit this when creating each event indivudually as well but setting a default can save time.
Your Apple ID can be used for several services onyour device. While it is nice to have the same Apple ID for everything, sometimes having more than one for different things is the way to go. Here is another article that may help:
Apple IDs and iCloud

I have 3 apple devices and I use the same apple ID for all 3. I would like to create a new I'd for one of my devices, but do not want to loose the apps on that device. Anyone know how I can do this?

Create a new ID:
On the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into the other one. Make sure that only her ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into the other one. Make sure that under You can be reached at only the newID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with the new one
- Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out your ID and sign in with the new one.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

I'm a school tech coordinator. Many computers and many iPads. How many Apple IDs can I have per device, and how many devices can have the same Apple ID? To make my life easier, I'd like 200 devices to all use the same Apple ID.

I'm a school tech coordinator. I have many computers and many iPads. I apologize if there is a some place that has all the rules governing the use of Apple IDs. I looked, and I even tried to get the answers from multiple Apple rep's. I couldn't find the answers.
How many Apple IDs can I have per device?
I want to use the same computer to sync and backup many iOS devices. The iOS devices would be associated with different Apple IDs.
I may load apps under a school Apple ID and have users load their own apps under thier own ID.
How many devices can have the same Apple ID?
Can I use the same Apple ID on all the computers in a lab?
Can I use the same Apple ID on all iPads for a particular grade level?
Are the rules different for iOS devices and computers?
I know that there are limits on "authorize" and "de-authorize" and how frequently those things can be done.
Recently I heard that for the life of an iOS device, it can only be associated with five Apple IDs. That is not good for a school giving iPads to students in a 1:1
To make my life easier, I'd like 200 devices to all use the same Apple ID.

It would be best to address your questions there, especially since this is a public forum, and over there you could post more private issues with this set-up. Not to mention, getting more official answers.

Is there a way to get around the pop up, "this device is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This device can be used with another Apple ID in 13 days."Someonehelp please

What exactly are you trying to do?

I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

A third-party app probably cannot obtain a stream from another app. To the best of my knowledge, such a capability is not provided in the software development kit, apps being "sandboxed" from each other and so allowed to communicate only in very specific and limited ways.
I'm not completely sure what you mean by "limitations on video capture". An iPhone, to the best of my knowledge, can natively record video only through it's built-in camera, and audio while doing video recording only through the built-in microphone or mic/headphone jack. There might be a video recording app that would allow audio input from an external device connected to the dock connector, but I'm not sure.

So I can sync two iPods to my iTunes account and sync the same digital copy movies that come with some o' my DVDs to both ipods? Do movies make a difference really, DRM-Wise? Thanks in advance.

How many devices can you use your icloud id on

I am trying to find out how many devices i can use an iCloud ID on to track iPhones and iPads. We have about 200+ devices, and would like to be able to track them and reload them when they are turned in, without having to ask the user for the account info.

You would probably need to contact Apple to get a definitive answer on that. An Apple ID that is used to access iTunes in the Cloud (such as downloading previous purchases, turning on iTunes Match or turning on Automatic Downloads) can be associated with a maximum of 10 devices, 5 of which can be computers (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627). (An iCloud ID is also an Apple ID.)
If you aren't using iTunes in the Cloud on any of these devices, presumably that restriction wouldn't apply. However, since iCloud is designed for personal rather than enterprise use so there may be a limitation on the number of devices that can share an account. I've just never seen it documented.

Error message saying this device cannot be used because Apple mobile device service is not started. What does this mean and how do I start service....had these devices for over a year now??

When I tried to sync my iphone 4 and ipad in iturnes, an error message popped up saying this device cannot be used because Apple Mobile Device service is not started! What does that mean and how do I start service? I've had these devices for over a year and update and sync regularly and have never seen this message before!

I got that message yesterday. I'm new at this so don't know if this is the correct solution but it worked for me. I reset my iPod by holding the 2 buttons down until the apple appears AND I restarted my computer. After that everything worked.

The device is in use by another process - error - cannot select Multi Output Device - Mac OSX 10.8.2

Dear Adobe Users!
Please help!
I'm using Adobe Audition CS5.5 on a Mac - OSX 10.8.2 (latest version of Mountain Lion) and I'm trying to select a Multi-Output device.
This was working FINE last few days - today, I get an error. I've tried to re-install Adobe Audition and that hasn't fixed the problem. When it first started up it said it couldn't find any audio devices at all.
Please can you help? I'm getting a message saying the device is being used by another process - but it's not being used by anything else at all!
Hope you are able to help! I use the multi output device option so I can record what I can hear. I spent two days trying to sort that out after it all-of-a-sudden didn't work last Thursday.
Now just spent last two hours trying to get Adobe to recognise the Multi Output device - it's been working fine last few days!
Many thanks if you're able to help!
- Rory

Durin,
May have sussed it! It seems that Built-in output was the way to have it for Audition CS5.5 to record what I'm hearing! Yes, the multi-device needs to be used - but in another settings.
Here's how I have each section configured and it now works!
First of all, in Audition > Preferences > Audio Hardware:-
Then, on the Mac's OS - System Preferences > Sounds (input settings)
Then Output settings :-
Then Midi Settings found in Finder > Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI set up
All now seems to be working! I'll let you know if anything further happens!
I was certain I had the output device as Multi Device Output on Adobe before, perhaps it should've been set to Built-in Audio all along. Anyway, I re-installed my Mac from Time Machine, logged in as another user and it worked under that profile, then logged back in as me - and am using the settings in the pics above and all seems to be working!
It's been a long week, perhaps I was just going around in circles and didn't actually test these particular settings yesterday in this order after all.
Thanks again for your help! Sorry if I've caused any confusion!

HT5278 If ios 5.1.1 on iPad 1 is no longer supported, is the device safe to use for credit card payments?

Hi All, anyone, or just helpful users,
If ios 5.1.1 on iPad 1 is no longer supported, is the device safe to use for credit card payments?
I know the reasons why Apple no longer update IOS for Ipad 1.
Due to end of life support, no bug fixes for older apps and constant vulnerabilities being exploited, does this now make the device insecure and vulnerable? either information stored on the device or (especially) when making credit card payments through Safari, etc.
Thanks in advance,

I would say your biggest issue isn't as much your operating system as it is the network you use your device on. For example the most secure device in the world can be used at McDonalds open wifi and have its info intercepted....and it's not your device's fault rather the connection. Any security program is only as good as its weakest component.
THe iOS operating systems are still very secure because they are highly resistent to viruses and malware....but a user can still click on that 'you won a million dollars' link in an e-mail and hand their personal info over to a hacker.
If you feel you can no longer trust it, then stop using it. But I would say a user's internet connection and behavior are larger security vulnerabilities than any device.

I don't own any Apple devices. I used to though. How do I access my music in the cloud?

The dilema is in the title. I don't own any Apple devices. I used to though. I owned a nano I bought music for through iTunes. But now I own an Android, and a PC. But I'd still like to access and listen to my previously purchased music that I bought through iTunes. However, I can't access the iCloud. I downloaded the iCloud Control Panel for PC. It asks me to sign in with my Apple ID. But when I try to sign in, it says I'm not signed up for the iCloud. But there isn't anywhere to sign up online! Unless I just haven't found it yet. I can't find anywhere to sign up online or in iTunes. The lack of tech support and the difficulty of use is precisely why I switched to Android and PC. I just want the music I PURCHASED.

Hi there Ginger,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
The article linked below provides troubleshooting tips that should help you resolve the iTunes Match issue that you're running into, where most of your music isn’t appearing in iCloud.
How to troubleshoot iTunes Match - Apple Support
Songs appear to be missing
Songs containing DRM (Digital Rights Management) might not appear in iCloud, or might appear grayed out. This can occur if your computer is not authorized to play that content. Try authorizing your computer, then manually update iTunes Match. To determine what Apple ID your computer needs to be authorized for to play a specific song:
Locate and select the song in your iTunes library.
Choose File > Get Info.
In the Summary tab, locate the Account Name field in the right column. Write it down.
Click OK.
Choose Store > Authorize this Computer.
Type in the account name from the Summary field and enter its password. Click Authorize.
Choose Store > Update iTunes Match.
So long,
-Jason

Yes. You need to create an iCloud Account on an Apple Device first.
