We have 3 kids with ipods, all on one apple id and they complain that they get each others messages, apps etc.  what can I do to change this?

We have 3 kids with an ipod touch each.  All are on one apple id (mine, so they have to come to me to authorise purchases) and they complain that they get each others messages, apps etc.  What can I do to set this up differently, so they can each manage their own content etc but not make purchases?

Go onto all iPods, and turn on "Restrictions" and disable installing apps. The apps do auto download, and the only way around the messages problem is to make 3 Apple IDs. When installing apps, it will ask for a "restrictions" password, and you can enter that.

  • Why do i have two game center accounts on one apple id and how do i log into the other one

    One day while i was bored i started up a game but all of my progress items and everything that i paid for was gone and it was the same in all of my other game center related apps. After a long chain of emails with the maker of the game he stopped being helpful but we figured out that i have two game center accounts but only one apple id. So how do i log into the account with all of my data?

    Get a separate Apple ID for one of the phones. Or turn OFF iCloud contacts synching on the one you do not want contacts to synch.
    Settings>>iCloud

  • I have bought unlocked iphone5 in USA on apple  store. In Europe (Croatia) I get "no service" message on daily basic. any suggestion how to fix this problem? Are apple working on some update to fix this, because I saw lot of people have similar problem.

    I tried all resets.

    Does it work sometimes, or never? If it never works that means that the phone was not unlocked. If it works sometimes most likely it is a network problem with the carrier. If you think it might be the phone go to Settings/General/Reset - Reset Network Settings. You may also need a new SIM card from your carrier.
    If it is a phone hardware problem you must return the phone to the US for service, as iPhones are only repaired by Apple in the country where they were purchased.

  • When I use Firefox and Hotmail at startup, Firefox freezes for about 1 minute, and then I can continue. First I though it was my computer but 2 other girls in my class have the same problem with Hotmail and Firefox. What can I do to change this?

    When I start Firefox, about 15 seconds after I start it, my Firefox freezes for about 1 minute. I found out that it is my Hotmail that makes Firefox freeze.
    First I thought it was my computer, but I have 2 other girls in my class that use Hotmail and Firefox and their computer also freezes for 1 full minute.
    This is very annoying, what can I do to change this?

    p.s. I am from the Netherlands, maybe that has something to do with it?

    You are right, but how could i send it to Apple? when the phone company first replaced my iphone they had in stock alots of iphones and they just sent mine back to Apple and gave me a new one, so all i did is to give them my phone, but now how could i sent it to Apple? and i cant send it by myself, and the store wont do that, its a lost for them.. so sending it to Apple wasnt an option from the begining.
    and for the record, i dont think the store where i bought it is an authorized shop.. its just a store who boughts phone's from Apple in a low price and sells it in much more money..

  • I have a 2007 MacBook 2GHz intel core 2 duo and i want to update to either snow leopard or lion what can ido if i have 10.4 already.

    I have a 2007 MacBook 2GHz intel core 2 duo and i want to update to either snow leopard or lion what can ido if i have 10.4 already. please help

    You can upgrade from 10.4 straight to 10.6 with no problems. Any program that runs under 10.4 should run under10.6. See this list for compatibility with 10.6: http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/ 
    You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/   I recently upgraded an older MacBook (model 1,1) straight from 10.4 to 10.6.
    Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store.  The price is $19.99.
    You must have at least a model 2,1 MacBook. Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
    As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

  • I share an Apple ID with someone but we are now on iOS8 and getting each others messages on our iphones and ipad. How can I split the account safely as well as protect icloud backed up data?

    I share an Apple ID with someone but we are now on iOS8 and getting each others messages on our iphones and ipad. How can I split the account safely as well as protect icloud backed up data?

    Use different Apple IDs for iMessage (and also FaceTime) to avoid getting each others text messages (and FaceTime calls).  One of you should go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive (and Settings>FaceTime), tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  You can continue to shared the same ID for the iTunes store and other services.

    I have iCloud on MY PC and when I try to download attachments it is changing the file name to messagepart. What can i do to change this?

    I don't think this is an iCloud issue- it is the latest release of Safari. Firefox attachments are still correctly downloaded.
    This needs some interest from Apple techs.

  • Hp all in one 19-2013w and 19-2113w , that in the Bios i am not getting the legacy support option

    i want my system to be boot from the USB Drive - but Legacy support is not avialable in the Bios and that i why in the boot menu i am not getting my USB option Model no : Hp all in one 19-2013w and 19-2113w   

    Same here. My computer was "born on" Aug 13th, 2014, so today it's exactly only 2 months old. Since Windows 8 was so sluggishly slow i decided i was going to wipe the drive and install Linux. I had already been successful doing the exact same thing with a new HP laptop about 1 year ago.. it also was a Windows 8 preloaded machine, so i am very aware of the UEFI "Secure Boot" methodology and what it took to disable secure boot mode and enable legacy mode. I am happy to say that laptop ran Linux beautifully and without any issues. So now, i have the HP AIO 19-2113w machine preloaded with Windows 8.1, which has been wiped. I have converted the GPT to MBR and attempted to disable secure boot mode and enable "legacy mode". The Legacy mode option says i must first disable secure boot mode, which i've done several times. (When restarting after doing so, i get a prompt to type in the 4 digits on the screen and press enter, which i've done several times now). Going back into bios after doing this... i STILL can't get past the "You must disable secure boot mode before using this option... blah blah.". So i decided to look up if there were any lawsuits against Microsoft and/or HP reguarding UEFI bootloading issues, and there are. Right now i am sitting on a 2 month old computer with NO operating system and no recovery partition. The money i spent on this computer could have gone towards a different brand, such as an Asus which has never given me trouble. You guys need to contact me ASAP with a fix, or you'll get plenty of free negative advertising.

  • I'd like to connect my ipod touch (3rd generation) to my ipad2, but I don't see each other through bluetooth. What should I do?

    Hi,
    I am trying to connect an iPod touch 3rd (ios 5.1.1) generation to control my KEYNOTE's presentations in my iPad2 (ios 6.1.3). I activated bluetooth in both but they do not see each other. Is there any specific procedure to allow the connection or it is a problem of compatibility between versions of ios?
    I appreciate any input.

    iPhone: Go to Settings > General > Bluetooth and turn Bluetooth ON.

    On the iPad running Keynote, open your Keynote presentation.
    Tap the Tools icon in the toolbar.
    In the Tools menu, tap Settings.
    In the Settings menu, tap Remote.
    In the Remote Settings menu, turn on Enable Remotes.
    On the iPhone, open the Keynote Remote app.
    In the iPhone Settings window, tap New Keynote Link.
    On the iPad, the name of the iPhone appears in the Remote Settings window; tap Link.
    On the iPad, enter the four digit number that is displayed on the iPhone, and then tap Done.
