If any of you are like me, I had one single AppleID under MobileMe. Under my AppleID I had two additional Email addresses, one for my wife and one for her Mother. Each used their individual email accounts on their login on the home Mac and on their individual Iphones.
In order for them to not lose their email acounts when mobileMe goes away and/or you move your appleID acount from MobileMe to iCloud, you simply need to beaware of the folowing. Have each person with an email address under your AppleID MobileMe go to www.me.com; enter their email account and password in the corresponding fields. However, don't press the login button. Instead press the sentence under the login fields that says something to the effect of "do you want to move/migrate to iCloud. Follow the prompts from there.
In essence what Apple has done--albeit not communicated anywhere--is that they automatically created AppleIDs for each of those additonal email addresses you have/had under MobileMe. Therefore, use that email and password after moving from MobileMe to iCloud and your good to go.

I have home share turned on and have a desktop for the main acct and a laptop and an I-phone. I purchased music on my Iphone and can't figure out how to get it onto move the desktop or laptop. It's very frustrating because I don't understand some of the I-tunes terminology and I have read through it all and did what sounds right but still no success!! Grrrrr.....I feel like I need someone to walk me through it!

Hello everyone. I currently have an iphone which is part of a 3 people family plan; therefore we were told we need to use the same apple id. So my question is can I use my own apple id without affecting the fact we have a family plan? I would like to make my own app store purchases with my own credit card and not my sisters fiance since we are using his apple id. PLEASE HELP ME SOMEONE!

Whoever told you that has no idea what they're talking about. Ignore that advise. -
Why are all of our devises running off of the same apple I.d .They all have their own account.
I don't know why three of our devices are running off of the same apple I.d.All three of the devices have there own ids but they are going under the same.Why???
Because that's the way you set them up. It doesn't happen by itself.
Odds are you plugged them all into the same computer logged in with the same account, with the same iTunes library, and restored them all from the same backup.
Don't do that. -
Is there a risk that when I make a backup from one device, it overwrites the stored data from thoe other device?
If I want to restore my iPhone and my iPad from the iCloud, will they be restored from the same stored data or from separate data?Ok, great news.
Thank you! -
I have an iPod touch and an iPad on the same apple account. If I purchase the same album on both devices without syncing to my computer will I be charged twice?
Yes. You're supposed to move it to the second device from the computer and not redownload it from the iTunes Store.

I need to update my iTunes and iPod touch,iPad and iPhone but they were set up with a hp laptop that i sold i tried to update my iTunes and apple devices but it tell's me if i update i will lose all media on my devices and to update with the original computr
Go to www.ecamm.com and d/l PhoneView.
To prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - hold down the 'option' and the 'command' keys when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - key the keys down until the iPod/iPhone is listed under the Devices list in iTunes - this will prevent a sync from taking place.
With PhoneView you can take the content from the device to the iTunes library.

I have bought an iPod Touch 4g and installed TomTom Europe GPS app. How do I get a decent GPS signal in my car, since the TomTom car kit for Ipod Touch doesn't do the job for the ipod Touch 4g?
Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.
Also see:
Recover Older Versions of iPhone Apps After Updating — Apple News, Tips and Reviews
The bakup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.
If you still have the one 2G with the Netflix app, delete the new NetFlix app from her computer anf then transfer iTunes purchased to the iTunes library by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
Then sync to her iPod. You may have to sign the iPod into the account that purchased it to sync it. -
I have a white ipod touch 4 and it will not go into DFU mode. I know I am doing it right as I have 2 other black ones that I can put into DFU anytime no problems. The ipod works perfect besides that. Can anyone help?
DFU or Device Firmware Upgrade mode allows all devices to be restored from any state.

We have multiple devices in our family. On each iPad/iPhone each user has their own apple id for iMessage, Facetime and icloud, but we all sign in to the same apple id for itunes. When one of my kids comments on my shared photostream, it shows my name and not theirs as the commenter. How do I fix that?
CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups
Decide on whether to setup as Admin or Standard User.
Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar or use Fast User Switching
Fast User Switching allows other users to leave current applications and windows open. Depending on RAM, you might need to log out rather than use FUS. -

Just got a second iPad for the home.
Can I have multiple users's family devices backed up to the cloud e.g. 2 iPhones and 2 iPads under the same iTunes account?Yes, but it's not usually recommended to share an iCloud account within a family. If you do, any data you sync with iCloud will be merged and you, for example, will end up with each other's contacts and calendars on your devices. Also, any action taken on one device (such as adding or deleting a contact) will be replicated on the other devices. You will also all be sharing the same 5GB of free storage for all your data and device backups.
Normally it's best to use separate iCloud accounts for each person's devices. This will keep your data separated, and allow each person to have their own free 5GB of storage. You can continue to share the same iTunes ID within the family; the ID you use for iCloud does not need to be the same as the one your use for iTunes purchasing. (Each person should also use a separate ID on their devices for iMessage and FaceTime to avoid getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.) -
I have an app called cartoon HD on my iphone and this app is no longer available I am about to buy an ipad, if I back this up with the same Apple ID will it share the app to the iPad?
You can copy the app to your computer's iTunes library by connecting the phone to it and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases - an actual backup (either on your computer's iTunes or to the cloud) doesn't contain the actual apps, just their content and settings, for a restore to work the app needs to be either in your computer's iTunes library (for and iTunes backup/restore) or still in the store (for an iCloud backup/restore). Or you could just sync the app from your computer's iTunes (which will only install the app, not any previous content)
