Using apps from MULTIPLE accounts on single iPhone

Hello,
I have two different accounts with Apple (one for the Portuguese and another for the Dutch store) to have access to apps that are only available to specific countries/markets. With iOS 4 I was able to purchase and run apps from either store without any problem.
After I installed iOS 5, I can only run apps that are available to the store that I am logged in at the moment. The apps from the other store just quit/stop right after starting.
Is anyone else having the same problem? How do we fix it?
Thank you!

At first I tried to connect on facetime from my imac account to my MBP computer but was unsuccessful because I suspect I was using the same email for both.
Then I activated facetime on the imac for my wife who has an account on the imac and then tried from the MBP to connect to her account on the imac and am unable to do so. I can use her account on the imac to connect to my mbp.
Has anyone else been able to make such a connection. It would seem to me that it does not matter which account on the imac one is using.
Thanks,
Shannon
I have made successful FaceTime connections both to and from every possible combination of my iPod touch, Mac Pro, and MacBook Pro.
In order to connect FaceTime between different devices, each device must have a unique identity.
For Macs and iPods touch, these identities must be unique Apple iDs. If you have done this and can connect in one direction but not the other, check the typing carefully. One of the devices may have an error in the correct contact info.

HT1386 how can I transfer purchased apps from itunes account to old iphone

how can I transfer purchased apps from itunes account to old iphone?

You can sync them under apps on iTunes if they are in your iTunes library.
you can go into the App store on the device, tap on "updates" and then "purchases" download the apps you want.

Will apps from multiple accounts sync on one device

When I first started using iTunes I was too young to have an iTunes account so I used my mums to make purchases to sync to my iPad via the computer. A few years later I had created my own account when I got my laptop mainly to purchase movies to watch and music for my iPod however the email I used I no longer use as it keeps getting spammed.
I recently purchased a new iPad via the apple store(waiting for delivery) which I made a new apple account for what I am wondering is that as I did all of my app syncs for my old iPad via my computer all my apps are on my iTunes on my laptop however I was wondering if I were able to sync up my apps, music and new apps to my new device via my laptop without issue as they have come from multiple accounts.

As long as there are five or fewer Apple IDs involved, you won't have a problem syncing the content. Note that the applications can only be updated from the Apple ID used to download them, and this may also apply to in-app purchases.

Apps from multiple accounts

I'm sure this is posted somewhere, but my searches didn't come up with anything. My dad just got an iPad. My sister's had an iPod touch for a while. How can they share apps, while his name/account is the one that the iPad recognizes? This applies to multiple accounts as well (my account and my mom's account).

One computer and one account can accomodate as many iOS devices as you like; legally, as many as are in your family household.
There are a lot of variations of "multiple accounts" i.e. more than one Apple ID, more than one iTunes Library, more than one computer or loging account to a single computer, etc You should do some research and then if you have specific questions, come back here. Here are some places to start:

I have 1 iphone (work), 1 ipad (personal), 2 itunes accounts (1 personal, 1 work), and 2 computers (1 personal-mac, 1 work-pc), how do/can I use stuff from both accounts on the iphone and ipad?

any suggestions would be most appreciated!

Yes!
Luckily, if you be very careful and pay attention to what you have selected in itunes, you can separate these things
Basically, in iTunes, there are tabs at the top for Summary, info, apps, etc..
These tabs control PER DEVICE what syncs between itunes and the device.
Therefore, you can plug iPhone 4S #1 in, and select to sync contacts with address book, then do so. Then plug iPhone 4S #2 in, and not choose to sync with address book. iTunes will keep these settings separate. However, in that situation for music and apps, you would check to sync both on both, in order to get all music and apps on each.
The only thing to watch out for, each computer 'user' has only one set of address book and ical, meaning that if you want to sync both phones to the computer, but dont want to mix contacts, only one phone will be able to sync contacts and/or calendars. Basically, each category in the Info tab will only hold one device's information, so you CAN do contacts with iPhone 4S #1, and calendars with #2.

Can you use apps from one computer/iTunes accounts on multiple iPhones?

Hello All!
I have been using a 3G since they were released on and syncing it to one computer and one iTunes account. My wife now wants an iPhone as well. I know what Apple's policy is on music and video, but what about app sharing. *If the phone is synced with the same computer and uses the same iTunes account (on the iPhone to login), will she be able to free access to all of the applications I have previously downloaded or will she need to pay for all non-free apps?* I couldn't find an answer in the Apple knowledgebase (except for the iPhone software itself, not the 3rd-party App Store apps).
I would appreciate a quick answer, as we're thinking of picking one up tomorrow. I'd appreciate the help and thanks in advance Happy holidays!
Jim

Thanks all! I'm glad to have that answered. Apple said they couldn't answer it! Love those tech/sales support people for iTunes!!!
Happy Holidays!

Can I use Apple Configurator 1.6 to install Apps from multiple iTunes accounts on 30 iPads

Can I use Apple Configurator 1.6 to install Apps from multiple iTunes accounts on 30 iPads in South Korea?

Thank you again. I am actually just using a single computer at thsi time but will be setting up a Mac Mini in a day or so.
I actually believe I authorized my Mac Book for both my wife and my iTunes account. Yesterday when I hooked her iPhone up it told me that my computer was not authorized to download an app, i had to authorize this macbook.
So if the Apps from both iTunes account is on my Mac Book and I hook up my iPhone it will allow my to transfer the apps from my computer to my iphone? So lets say I am logged into iTunes account #1 and I try to use an app from iTunes account #2 will I have to do anything special?
Again thanks

I have 2 apple ID's can I retrieve the apps and songs from both accounts to my iphone?

Hi,
I have an ITunes log in from my ipod that is around 3 years old. Last year work bought me an ipad and I set up another apple ID account and downloaded app's for the Ipad. Yesterday I got a new Iphone 4s and logged into the app store through the same apple id as linked to my ipad.
My question is can I sync the music from my ipod and the apps from my ipad onto my new phone? And to sync my phone do I have to do it through my works PC where the Ipad has been set up or can I do it on my home PC which has itunes installed?
I hope that someone understands this and can help. Thank you.

Apps are tied to the Apple ID, so you can't use apps from different Apple IDs on one device.

Transfer iPhone Apps from One Account to Another

*Hello everybody,*
*Since I'll be moving to Germany soon to study Medicine, I've created a new iTunes account which is the one I use regularly. I was wondering if there is a possible way to transfer paid apps from one account to another for the same iPhone, and if it's not possible what do you suggest so I can still use my paid apps with my new account.*
*Thank you*

What you would do is on computer authorize other account for that computer. So you computer is authorized to play both accounts. Then you can sync apps from both accounts to your phone using the same computer as before.
My wife and I both have our own accounts and each of our instances of iTunes have authorized each others accounts for that computer. So I can sync her apps and she can sync mine. Just becomes a pain when you update an app via the cell phone when updates come out as trying to do all at once usually fails if the apps for updating are for each account. So have to do one at a time or just have them update via iTunes and sync.

How do I create a single image using PSE12 from multiple originals where each original is still separate?

How do I create a single image using PSE12 from multiple originals in which the originals are still separate (i.e. side by side or arranged in a square)? I could do this in PSE2, but can't find how to get PSE12 to do it.
Grecophile55

In PSE2 there was a single photo-merge. I browsed all my images and I could then click and drag each to its new position before saving. There doesn’t seem to be a similar facility in PSE12.

Installing a LOB App for Multiple Accounts On The Same Surface Device

Hi,
When installing apps to iOS & Android there is no concept of a local user account, and an app can only be installed once. For Windows devices, a single device can have multiple accounts. Those accounts can be local or domain and have administrator privileges
or not.
We are planning to use the Device Enrollment Manager concept in Intune to enroll approximately 200 non-domain joined devices. Each device will have two local accounts - one in English and one in French. We have a LOB Windows App that works in both
languages. We do not want the local accounts with the App to have administrative permission.
It seems you need local administrator permission to enroll the device. If I then install the app from this account, it works. However, I need the app installed on the local English and local French account.
When I log locally into the device using a standard account and log into the Company Portal, it shows the app as installed. It is not, however, installed for that user and is not accessible. Note that I'm using the same Intune account. It is only available
to the local administrator account. The only option I have is 'Re-Install'. When I select that, nothing happens - it is stuck in the "Installing..." state.
If I only enroll the device using the local administrator account and then log into the local standard account to install the app, it doesn't show as installed. When I choose to install it, it gets stuck on Installing.
I'm missing something here...
Is it possible to install an App from Intune more than once on a Surface device? Do the Intune accounts need to be unique per-install? Is it possible to install the app without local administrator permission?
Thank you!
-jd

An update. If I:
Enroll a Windows Surface using a local admin account
Request to install an app from a local standard account it appears stuck on Installing...
Log back in as the local admin account and wait, the app appears.
Questions:
Can the same app be installed into multiple local accounts on the same device? It doesn't look like it.
Is the local account used when the device is enrolled the only local account that will install Intune apps?

Can I use apps from foreign app store on my iPad?

Hi guys,
I apologise if this has been answered before. I would like to use apps from a foreign iTunes store on my iPad and wondered if anyone could help me with that.
We live in Australia and I want my kids to learn German as well, so I thought it would be really nice to download a few educational apps from the German iTunes store for them. I have an Australian and a German iTunes account and once I changed my apple ID in the store preferences on my iPad I can download German apps without a problem. The trouble is now that from the two apps I downloaded one changed to english and the other one doesnt open at all.
Do you have any suggestions how I could get this to work?
Thanks
Alex

As long as you are using the App store > link under Software update under the Apple on the menu bar if it's not already on your Dock..( or LaunchPad )...Yes.
Using iTunes Store for Apps No, they are only for iOS ie, iPads iPhones, iPod Touches etc.

Receiving Email from Multiple Accounts?

Is there some way of receiving email from multiple accounts in one centralized account? It was automatic with my Blackberry. Having to switch back and forth between accounts is a pain, and potentially dangerous if driving. If the iPhone email app can't do it, is there a third-party app that can?
Thanks.

No, there's not. Email accounts are kept separate on the iPhone.
Having to switch back and forth between accounts is a pain, and potentially dangerous if driving.
As opposed to just reading your email all accumulated into one inbox while driving - that's perfectly safe, right?? I'm sure not having to switch from one email account to another while driving frees up your attention for more important things, such as reading the newspaper or doing a crossword puzzle.
Please consider adding a location to your profile so I know which roads to avoid...

Not necessarily...
You would need to check the Terms and Conditions for the Mac App Store and possibly iTunes for clarity on that assumption...

Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
Restart your mobile device.
If you are still having problems, the following article(s) may help you.
