Want to share Calendar, Contacts but not iMessages (same AppleID)
How do I accomplish the following:
- In a family with 2 iPhone, I'd like to share everything - Contacts, Calendar - but not iMessages / SMS messages.
Both iPhones have the same Apple ID. Both iPhones can see Contacts, Calendars. Perfect. But iMessages are sent to both devices, as expected.
How do I retain all sharing on both iPhones - but - not iMessages / SMS messages?
Go to the Settings for iMessages and change the Send & Receive settings to only include the phone number for the particular device. Remove the checkmarks for the additional phone number(s) and Apple ID. This way only the phone number is used for iMessage which means it will only go to the individual device. That is what we use here as a family so that one Apple ID can be used to track phones in Find My iPhone.

I am using Outlook 2010. Changes made to my iPhone 4 or my iPad2 appear on each other (tasks, calendar, Contacts) but not in Outlook. Why is this?
Also, changes made in Outlook do not appear on Phone or IpAdI'm guessing outlook doesn't support iCloud or vice versa or the settings for iCloud in Outlook are turned off. Just a guess though I don't use Microsoft products if I can help it.

Exchange Sync works for Mail, Calendar, Contacts - but not for Notes
Hi,
I am using an iPhone 3G (16GB). The sync with my account on an Exchange Server (I think 2003) is working just great. Mail, Calendar, Contacts are all in snyc, but there seems to be no way of synchronising the Notes between the iPhone native app and the Exchange Notes.
Is there any way to make that happen?Notes syncing is only supported via USB/iTunes sync with Outlook (Windows) or Mail (Mac), not via Exchange. So, there is no way to sync the native iPhone Notes app with your notes on Exchange. There are 3rd party apps that can access your Exchange notes, though.

Can Sync Apps, Calendars, Contacts But Not Music/Video
Hi all,
I have been syncing my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.2.1) very nicely with my iTunes 10 for a while now. New apps get reflected on iTunes, as do calendars and contacts. However, today, I tried to click 'Sync all Music' on iTunes and I am told that I have synced my iPhone to another library and then I had to erase and sync everything. I gather that that message means everything on my iPhone will be gone, which is obviously not something I want. Strangely, I have all my music in my iPhone.
I suspect this came about a few months ago when I tried to sync the iPhone with another computer. That worked to some extent, and then I switched back to my iMac. But by then I had updated the firmware to iOS 4.2.1 and started on a clean slate, so to speak. That probably explains why I have all my music on my iPhone. So it is very curious that I can sync my apps and not my music.
So my question is - are my apps being backed up nicely? If they are, I am willing to live with this situation until I get a fresh iPhone 5 and then sync everything afresh.
Appreciate any comments, thank you.I believe you may see this warning if you had your iPhone set to manually manage music and you change it to sync. When you do, I don't believe it does much other than check to see if there have been any changes to the list of media to keep on the phone since the last sync.
I could be wrong... but I believe this is the case. -
If my husband add a new iCloud account to his iPhone 5, will he be "locked out" because he's using a new Apple ID to do it? Does he have to use a new Apple ID to create a new iCloud account? He set up his phone using my Apple ID because we didn't know any better. Now we want to separate calendars/contacts, but are afraid of the 90-day lockout.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You can change the Apple ID without any problem. On his device, go to Settings > iCloud > Delete account and login with his Apple ID so he'll get his information. iCloud needs an Apple ID, so if he hasn't got one, he must create an Apple ID > http://appleid.apple.com
When you delete the iCloud account, all the information will be deleted, so I recommend you to turn off each service before deleting iCloud -
We started with an apple computer and set up 1 apple id and for music on iPods. Now we have 3 apple phones and want to share the music but keep our contacts separate. what should we do? Right now we have the same apple id on the PC, ipodtouch, ipod, and 3 phones. They said make seperate clouds?
Hello there MizzouTrojan,
If I understand correctly you want all 6 devices to have access to a single calendar that each device gets notifications for and can edit. You can do that with an private iCloud shared calendar. First sign into www.icloud.com and use these steps from the following article to share a calendar:
iCloud: Share a calendar with others
Share a calendar privately
Click the Share button to the right of the calendar name in the sidebar, then select Private Calendar.
Note: You can also share the same calendar publicly. For instructions, see the next task, “Share a calendar publicly.”
Type the invitee’s email address in the Add Person field and press Return.
Click the pop-up menu with the invitee’s name and choose access privileges (View & Edit or View Only).
For each person you want to share the calendar with, repeat steps 2 and 3.
When you’ve invited everyone and set their privileges, click OK.
Invitation emails are sent from your iCloud email address to the participants you specified.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

I want to be able to access my photos that are stored on iCloud
– I see mail and contacts but not my pictures?
I have been backing up for a long
time - Where are they?You can't view them on iCloud.com. And photos (and other data) stored in your device backup can't be viewed, other than by restoring the backup to your device.
If you want to view your photos on the web, for the time being you will have to add them to a shared stream (album) with the Public Website option enabled. This will give you a private url to view them from a browser. -

Can I have two apple id's on the same iPad. Example me and my spouse want to share the iPad but have different id's
iOS does not support multiple users like a desktop OS does.
You can use a web interface to your respective email accounts
to keep things separate; but there is no provision for otherwise
separating photos, media, etc.
If you wish, you can contact Apple to let them know of your desire:

How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?
How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?
They need to be registered under different Apple ID's. The initial Apple ID is set when you first start the phone up. If you've already registered the phone to the iTunes account, back it up to your computer, and then have iTunes do a factory reset. Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your current Apple ID, select "Find My iPhone," choose the iPhone you want to dissociate from your primary Apple ID from the upper left, and then click the little circled X ("remove").
When you start the phone, it will have you go through the setup process again, at which time you need to create a unique Apple ID for the device. You can then restore it from your iTunes backup to get back your apps and other settings.
Whenever you use the iTunes store, use the login information (Apple ID and password) that you were using before. Basically, the second Apple ID that you created is purely used for accessing iCloud services, which includes synchronization of contacts, iCal events, and other such things. -
Duplicate calendar entries - but not related to any kind of sync
I went on holiday for 3 weeks and during that time my iPod touch discharged completely. When I came back and charged it up again I saw that it had reset its date back to what I presume is the factory default of 01 January 1970. I set the date and time to the current date and time - and then discovered that all my MONTHLY and YEARLY repeating calendar entries (but not the WEEKLY ones) have all been duplicated. This is not the result of any kind of sync up since (following a complete system rebuild following a virus attack) I have not yet reinstalled iTunes on my PC and I have not knowingly synced with Outlook because I almost never use it. If I delete an entry that has been duplicated then BOTH entries are deleted. Has anyone seen this behaviour and can tell me how I can remove the duplicate entries? I have looked for posts relating to duplicate calendar entries but they all deal with syncing-related problems whereas mine is not. Thanks.
I have a similar issue. I bought an ipod touch last week and today I synced my entourage contacts, and address book. The address book entries are fine, but I have duplicates on my calendar. Now, its not duplicating per day, its duplicating the previous or next day. For instance, I have a birthday listed for today, it will also show for yesterday or tomorrow. What is causing this? I've checked the calendar on entourage and ical and both show correctly. (ical copies items from entourage)

Share safari bookmarks but not browsing history
In iCloud, how do I share safari bookmarks but not browsing history?
Thanks for replying. Private browsing doesn't save either type of history, so it wouldn't make a difference.
I don't want my browsing history available when Firefox is open. I sometimes leave the browser open for days at a time if I haven't turned my computer off. -
Hi everyone, I have LR 5 that I purchased with a serial number and about a week ago I got the message about a new update, I want to get LR 6 but not the creative cloud, last time from LR4 to LR5 there was just an update without buying the creative cloud, is that possible from LR5 to LR6? Thanks so much.

You can't install 9.2.1 or earlier on any Mac that is only Mac OS X bootable. In fact you need to use the restore disks which came with those Macs to install 9.2.2 on those Macs. 8.6 is only possible to install on Macs which came with 8.6 or earlier. The 9.1 disk may be useful for your 1999 PowerMac G4, but won't be of any use for a 2006 Powerbook G4.

I have copied some photos to my I phone through the computer of my friend. I want to delete those photos but not able to do. My friend is not in my country. I tried through another computer but didn't know how to delete it
If they were synced to your phone, they can only be removed by syncing them off with iTunes. Create an empty folder on the computer you normally sync your phone with. Then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the photos tab and select to sync the empty folder you created earler. Then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone. This will remove any photos on your phone that were synced to it from a computer.
