Using two different accounts in Messages

Sorry if this has already been asked and answered, but I'm not finding applicable solutions in my searches.
My husband has his apple ID set up on messages on our macbook pro. Is there a way for me to sign him out, sign in with my apple ID, AND see my messages? When I signed him out and signed in with my apple id, it still showed his messages.
Thanks in advance.

The best way is to set up each of your sons with his own account in Windows so that each iTunes library is completely separate. Then just set up separate accounts for each of them in the iTunes Store. Presuming you don't want to give them unlimited spending power, you can set up allowance accounts if you want to give them a set amount to spend each month, or you can buy then iTunes prepaid cards or give them gift certificates.

  • Can we share apps on two ipads using two different accounts on the same computer?

    I just got and iPad 2 and am giving my wife my old iPad. She has a separate itune account for her ipod. Can we share apps on the two iPads with two different accounts running on the same computer?

    Dear Dah,
    I now have two iPads, which I also (need to) have separate AppleID's for. I understand I can share apps between them if I authorize iTunes on my iMac with both ID's, but I am not quite sure about the correct way to do that. I already have the iMac authorized for AppleID#1. If I go into iTunes and click on Store/Authorize this Computer... and enter my AppleID#2 information into Account name and Password boxes, does this authorize my iMac's iTunes for BOTH ID's or does it just change the authorization from ID#1 to ID#2?
    If the former is correct, I understand the way to proceed is to xync up both iPads to iTunes and then I can drag and drop apps from one iPad's library listings to the other, right?
    If this is not the correct way to get dual authorizations, what is?
    Thanks!

  • How to use two different accounts in iTunes

    I have purchased apps under two different email accounts and I am now unable to use the initial account.  Having deleted some apps because of problems, I am recharged for the apps because apple will not accept the original password and user name.  When I try to add it to my apple account, I get a message that this particular user name is already in use.  (yes, by me!)  Please help.

    Contact Apple about your iTunes accounts and maybe they can combine the two.

  • HT204053 Two different accounts simultaneously on my apple tv?

    Can I use two different accounts simultaneously on my apple tv? (one for iCloud and one for iTunes store)

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you mean for redownloading content such as TV shows etc, then no because this is controlled by your store settings.

    And is there any way to sync all my purchases and accounts to just have one... It is a bit stupid that you dont even get a list of something of what account you may of used, or some kind of hint, so you could log on to the right account. I am really stuck ...
    Please Advise......

    You can't merge accounts. But you can check your purchase history:

  • How can I send email using two different email address that both link back to my one exchange account on my Ipad mini

    How can I send email using two different email address that both link back to my one exchange account on my Ipad mini? 
    On my PC I simply have a master return email address and use a POP for the secondary address.  Both are through the one exchange account without a problem.  I need to be able to do the same on my Ipad.

    Ah, I should have made that clear.  My domain didn't come from google.  It was purchased at and is hosted at dreamhost, but I haven't used their email servers in years - I just route everything through gmail.  I actually have a bunch of domains (with websites).
    Gmail has an option that lets someone with custom domains send (and receive) email through gmail using the custom domain once Google confirms proper ownership of the domain (to prevent spammers and such).  Gmail has a setting for "send email as" which allows gmail to be sent using a custom domain as the sender.  I'm pretty sure Apple's old mobileme had this feature too, but I didn't use it.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

  • SBO - How to use two different Stock Account within the same Item Group

    Hi,
    I'm currently stuck within one of my implementation.
    I'm deploying the same solution worldwide which worked pretty well until now. All the items are connected to an item group, with a unique GL account, supposed to book at the same time the good receipt and the good issue (Balance-Sheet Account = 14xxxxx).
    My new unit is willing to use two different GL accounts when performing its stock entry (let say 14xxx10) and another GL account for the good issue, let say 14xxx20.
    Do you have any clue so i can please them and keep using at the same time the item group ?
    Thanking you in advance
    Stephane

    Hi,
    In fact, we use the GL account as the HQ Account (Reporting Account) while the "Export Code" will be used to store the local GL Account (greek account).
    As such, we can, somehow handle two different chart of accounts.
    In my reporting, i'm only using a single GL account for stock movements, while my greek counterparts want to handle two different accounts.
    Threfore, i have only two solution since there is normally a one to one relationship between a HQ account and a local account that are :
    1 - Duplicate the HQ accounts
    In that case, i do respect anytime the one to one relationship. I've got one HQ account for one local account. But how can i put this since i can only handle one single stock account.
    2 - I keep my single stock account like this but i won't be managing the possibility to get two different Export Codes.
    Regards

  • Can I use two different itune accounts on one computer?

    Can I use two different itune accounts on one computer?

    1. Give her a separate user account on your computer. If you have a backup copy of the library, you can restore it.
    2. If you encounter a 90-day waiting period, click here and ask the iTunes Store staff if they'll remove it.

  • Can you use an iTunes gift card on two different accounts?

    can you use an iTunes gift card on two different accounts? on two different computers?

    A Gift card will add a specified amount of mony to an iTunes account identified with a specific Apple ID (email address and password combination).
    If that Account is set up on both Devices, then they will share the money balance in that account. And can purchase things in the store with that balance.

  • How to do consolidation using two chart accounts with different currencies

    Hi
    How to do consolidation using two chart accounts with different currencies and do we need to use same fiscal year variant ?
    What would be the impossible factors when we use two company codes with two chart of accounts ...
    Regards
    Kesharika

    Good Afternoon
    You need to use translationa and/or valuation
    translation takes account in foreign currency and translates to group currency
    valuation takes account in currency 1 and restates into currency 2 for a company with currency 2
    so depends on which company you are consolidating for, a company in a foreign currency in that currency or consolidating a compnay in foreign currency to parent company in another currency

  • Use two different I pods on one account

    Can I use two different I-Pod shuffles on one I-Tunes library?

    Yes, and you can then either sync the same or different content to them - iTunes should remember your selections for what you decide to sync to them

  • Download using a different account.

    I downloaded an EPUB book using Overdrive.  I have multiple Overdrive accounts that are authorized to the same Adobe ID.  When I tried to download the same book on a different device, it told me it was downloaded using a different account or Adobe ID.  I tried deleting it off the other device and now I cannot download it on any device.  I cannot even open it in Adobe Digital Editions app/program as it gets the same message.  Is there a way to fix this.  I did have two accounts at one time but it looks like they are combined to one.

    Thanks for the reply. I downloaded Lion again using my account and I have a copy of the installer that we could install on my friend's machine but we are concerned that he wouldn't get updates via the app store. This is why we wanted to purchase it for him using his account. The problem is that I can't buy it for him on my machine using his id because Lion is already running on my imac. We're trying to do this correctly and legally but it's proving to be quite difficult. Thanks again.

  • Using two Skype accounts at the same time

    I need to stay online under two different accounts, so that I can chat with two different classes of clients.
    As of today I can only alternate between users. Is there a way I can open two accounts at the same time?
    I'm on an Intel iMac, running OSX Mountain Lion.
    Thanks for any hints.

    There's no proper way to do it - although forcing another instance of Skype as a different user seems to work... but test it thoroughly yourself before using with clients. Audio plays from both apps, not sure about mic. input. I'm not recommending it, and only tested briefly with Skype 6.3.59.602, but anyway...
    For example - if you create another user account on the mac - named test, and after opening Skype as normal in your usual account, open Terminal & paste the following + enter
    su test -c "/Applications/Skype.app/Contents/MacOS/Skype &"; exit
    you should be asked for test's password in Terminal, then another Skype will open, although you'll likely get a warning message or two (choose cancel).
