US iPad with UK iTunes?

I upgraded to iOS5 the day it came out.  I synced my iPad and now favorites is spelled "Favourites", I can't update Flipboard because a pop up message tells me I must be in the US iTunes store, and all of the prices in the store are reflected in Pounds Sterling instead of dollars.  My iPad was purchased in California and has never been anywhere else.
However, my husband is British, and some of his devices were brought over from the UK, such as our iPod touches.
We have an Apple Airport Extreme that has "cross pollinated" our devices before (ie: his apps end up on my device and my apps end up on his device even though we have never plugged our devices into one another's computers).
Even so, his iPad was purchased in, and has never left California as well.
We are both using first gen IPads and both upgraded to iOS5 the day it was released.  Any ideas?

    How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?
    Hi there
    My partner has a works iPad, which has her works Apps on (ones that are specifically made by her company and are NOT available in the App store).
    What I want to be able to do is to ALSO have my itunes account on there so that I can put all the apps I have purchased previously from my iPhone on it.
    This is so I can put on VLC player (thats already in my itunes account) so I can add videos to the iPad.
    How do I do this please?
    I tried it before by connecting it to my mac, but it wiped everything off the iPad completely and also deleted the data settings for using 3G.
    So I want to avoid this happening again the future as it had to be sent back to her head office to be sorted again.
    Any advise please?
    Thanks

    You can't. The iPad is desgined to be a 'one user' device and only really works with one apple ID at a time.
    The only way would be if she, at work and with her work apple id, downloaded your apps (repurchasing them of course).
    It's not meant to be a multiple user/multiple ID device.

  • Using one iPad with multiple iTunes accounts

    I am trying to understand the iTunes implementation on iPad..After synching my MBP on an iPad, all of my settings music, photos,mail are transferred to the iPad...my wife now wants to use the iPad as we are traveling...can my iPad's iTunes be signed off and her iTunes account be logged on thus she can access all her data stored on her iTunes account? I have spent a lot of time investigating this on the forum and I do not understand what can and not can be done...If this can not be done, then if any iBooks we want read (different books for me/wife) then needs to be purchased and read on the one iPad needs to be bought on only MY account which is synched to my MBP... ? It seems that you need one iPad for each user...(we each have our own MBP)?

    The iPad is not set up to allow different users with different data.
    All users have the same data.
    iTunes account = iTunes store account to make purchases
    iTunes library = everything in iTunes when she logs in with her computer login

    If you mean she want to sync the ipad with her iTunes library, yes.
    She will need to login to her computer account, connect the iPad, launch iTunes then sync it.
    This will erase all your data on the iPad and sync all her data.
    If you mean can she access iTunes store account, launch iTunes on the iPad, scroll to the bottom and tap Sign out iTunes then sign back in with her iTunes account.
    This will not add anything of hers to the iPad but she can make purchases with her iTunes account.

  • Can i buy an ipad with my itunes account

    Can i buy an ipad with my itunes account

    Hi ...
    If you mean the balance from iTunes Gift cards or certificates, no.
    You need to have a credit or debit card on file with Apple.

  • My husband got a new ipad and set up his apple id without looking into the implications of that.  Now I want to sync this ipad with our itunes so we can access it on here, but our itunes has a different apple id.  Any way to do this?

    You should be able to accept this message, it will cause existing music, photos (not camera roll) and videos (also excluding those in camera roll) to be removed and replaced with those from this computer. All other user data on the iPad will be unaffected.

    " how can I sync my iphone to my mac book without losing all the music and pictures on it?"
    You cannot.  Copy everything you want form the old computer to the new one, then sync it.
    it basically says you have to erase your iphone to sync to a new itunes!
    Correct Iphone will sync, or manually manage, with one and only one computer/library at a time. Syncing, or manually managing, to another will indeed erase the current content.

  • I have just synced my ipad with my itunes and have lost my original music library on my computer. How do I get it back?

    I have just synced my ipad with my itunes on windows and have now lost the original music library on the computer leaving me with just the downloaded songs from my ipad. I don't have the original library on icloud for some reason and was wondering if there was any way to get the original library back on my itunes?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you Mario.
    I am currently downloading my CD on my computer and saving them to my phone - AGAIN.
    Your help I am sure was great but I am not good at this. The lingo confuses me. I need to find a pal, with an iPhone who knows what they are doing. Someone like you to talk me through this but you don't know my computer.....
    Anyway, thanks for your help. You were the only one to reply and that meant a lot.

  • Install apps to Ipad with another Itunes account

    When I bought my Ipad 2, the guys from the store installed for me some apps & games (both paid & free) with their accounts on their PC. They warned me not to sync the ipad with the Itunes on my own PC because it would delete all the apps they installed for me. Also, they said if I want to install any new app, I can only do it locally on my ipad, not through Itunes on my PC. Is there anyway to bypass this without deleting their apps?

    Apps (and other content from Apple) are tied to the id that originally bought/downloaded them and they can't be copied or transferred to a different account - you will be better off deleting those apps and games and if they are any good buying/downloading your own copies of them.

  • I try to update the software of an Iphone or Ipad with the Itunes of the MacBook Pro. It downloads the software but at the end always the comment shows up that the download failed and i should try again. Any ideas, I already updated the iTunes software.

    Can I sync my new iPad with my iTunes from the cloud?

    Sync what sort of content ? You should be able to keep contacts and bookmarks between the two, but you can't directly copy music or films/tv shows between them - you will either need to sync those via your computer's iTunes, or if they are iTunes purchases and you are in a country where they can be redownloaded then they might show in the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your iPad

  • How do I sync my iPad with my iTunes without it trying to put my iPod apps on the iPad?  I don't want to make separate accounts because then the apps that I want on both would have to be paid for twice.

    No, they won't. Just create a second profile in iTunes for the iPad. You can then select only what you want synced to it completely separate from your iPod.
    Create a multiple user iTunes music library

  • I own 2 macs can I synchronise my iPad with both iTunes?

    Hi everyone,
    I have an iMac and an Macbook Pro. They have different content, the MBP has more books (pdfs for work mostly) and different music than the iMac which has a bit of everything from books to videos and music.
    Both iTunes are logged to the same iCloud accounts and I'd like to sync without having to delete contents on the iDevices.
    From my understanding, Apple does affiliate each iDevices to one iTunes at a time to prevent illegal file sharing.
    Please tell me there's a way to do that...
    Thanks!

    No. You can only sync with one iTunes library at a time. Syncing with another requires wiping the media from the device.
    There are ways to get around this, but doing so is asking for trouble. Sooner or later it will blow up in your face.
