What is the best way for a parent to share/set up an apple id for their children's iPhone if they have an Iphone too?

So I work for a wireless provider and i often have customers who buy their children iphones. They end up sharing Apple ID's amongst themselves. After they have done this- what is the easiest way to get the content being shared (contacts, pictures, music via icloud) seperated and onto the correct apple id's. Is there a way to get songs purchased on one apple ID duplicated onto another?

They will be able to download everything that was bought with their Apple ID. If they all shared an ID then they switched to their own ID they won't be able to use any apps or music bought with another Apple ID. As I explained in my previous response. There is only one way to share apps and content across multiple Apple ID's and that is home share. So, NO there isn't a "Smooth" way to do it.

  • What is the best way to reconcile and bulk upload user account and entitlement data for an offline resource?

    What we think is the following:
    Create a GTC resource, with flat file reconciliation and spml provisioning.
    Edit the provisioning process to get it work disconnected, based on http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27559_01/admin.1112/e27149/disconn_resources.htm#CHDDGGHD, we need to modify all SPML sending process tasks to be manual.
    Create a disconnected resource from this resource in a sandbox.
    In this case we do not need to develop custom codes, we only need to modify the provisioning process to be manual.
    Any other solutions or best ways to do it?

    Hi Gergely
    The best way is to use OIM bulk load utility.
    Using the Bulk Load Utility - 11g Release 2 (11.1.2) --> Loading Account Data
    This is very easy and smooth.

  • What's the best way to use your iPad instead of textbooks?

    What's the best way to use your iPad instead of textbooks? I'm about to start a BSN program and have heard of using your iPad for textbooks instead of buying and carrying around 8 different books. Is there an app for that? Or do you buy or rent the books? What's the best solution?

    Or, if you're like me and you want to do a lot of heavy reading, use the iPad because the low contrast on a Kindle is extremely fatiguing.  
    Seriously, though "screen glare will cause eye strain" is often taken as an article of faith, there's not a lot of good scientific evidence for it. "Eye strain" can be caused by concentrating on any close work for long periods of time. Looking up and focusing on something distant periodically is very helpful. Older CRT screens that flicker also can be aggravting. I'm not denying that some people find reading backlit screens uncomfortable. However, it's not dangerous. And, then, there are other people who find the higher contrast a backlit screen affords to be much less wearying over long periods of time.

    The class java.util.Date is not itself deprecated, however several of its methods are.
    For converting string -> date, you should use the class java.text.SimpleDateFormat. That allows you to specify format strings such as MM-dd-yyyy hh:mm:ss for converting date -> string -> date.
    If you are wanting to set day/month/year on the date object directly, instead of the Date methods setDay, setMonth, setYear, you should instead use the java.util.Calender class:
    calendar.set(Calendar.MONTH, 4);
    The calendar can then be converted to a Date object by calling calendar.getTime().
    If you are going to use the date as part of a sql query, I would recommend using a Prepared statement, and the java.sql.Date/java.sql.Timestamp class as well.
    To convert from java.util.Date to java.sql.Date)
    jva.util.Date utilDate = Calendar.getInstance().getTime();
    java.sql.Date sqlDate = new java.sql.Date(utilDate.getTime());cheers,

    using DOM parser we can parse the xml file but can we write to XML file?Sure. That's the inverse operation of parsing, and it's called "serializing".
    The usual way to serialize a DOM to a file is to create a Transformer and apply the identity transformation to the DOM. However there are also third-party XML serializers that don't take that approach.I have not understood what the identity transformation mean. but i have searched for an example and found the following way to do it using Transformer. I hope what i find is right.
    Transformer tFormer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
              tFormer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD, "xml");

  • What is the best way to use a SSD for Photoshop/photo editing?

    Computer hardware newbie here: I do a significant amount of photo editing work and for a very long time I've experienced Photoshop, Bridge and Photomatix crashing constantly (usually due to insufficient RAM) or just generally taking forever (Bridge took forever to load the thumbnail/preview extractions in a folder full of images, Photoshop took forever to save images and Photomatix took ages to load/merge a set of bracketed photos).  Here are the typical error messages I'd get: http://pastebin.com/J9byczse
    As a professional photographer, constantly running into that sort of thing is quite aggravating, so to hopefully avoid ever having to deal with that again I invested in a new custom built computer.  It's Windows 7 Professional 64 bit with 32GB of RAM and a 240GB SSD; I'm using the 240GB SSD as my boot drive/OS, all of my programs are installed there, and the page file.  My photos and data are stored on several HDDs.  I have yet to install any of my photo editing software (Photoshop CS6 Extended, Lightroom, Photomatix etc) to the new computer yet since I'd like some advice first.
    My basic question is this: what is the best way to take advantage of the SSD (and the computer in general) when it comes to my photo editing software?
    Specifically...
    1. If I have a folder of photos I'm working on, should I move it to the SSD and then work on them from there in order to take advantage of the speed of the SSD?  Would this make any difference in terms of speed if the photos are located on the SSD vs. an internal/external HDD?
    2. Most of what I've read online seems to recommend two separate SSDs, one for installing/booting the apps and one for cache/scratch.  Does it matter if I use my 240GB SSD for both?
    3. This is a fairly new computer and the SSD is already almost half full (102GB used, 120GB free) *WITHOUT* any of my photo editing software installed yet.  I'm concerned about how fast that remaining 120 GB may fill up.  As it fills up will I lose the speed advantage of the SSD vs. a regular HDD?
    4. Sort of similar to #3, but should I bother moving any of my other non-photo editing programs/caches off of the SSD to a HDD and would there be any major difference in the speed/lifespan of the SSD if I did so?  It's mostly Firefox and Chrome and their caches that I'm concerned may be a problem if they remain on the SSD.
    Thanks for any help!

    If you have an SSD you can run the cache and programs on the same drive.  However, many recommend a scratch disk size of 100-200 gigs so that will not work here unless you opt for a larger SSD.  Otherwise an internal spinner is recommended that does not contain the program files, or idealy any other files that may want to get acessed at same time (only one read/write head per drive).
    With 32 gig of RAM you may not need the constant use of the scratch drive unless working on large images with lots of layers.  So see no advantage to moving folder to SSD for temp work environment.
    From what I read the new crop of SSD do not have the wear problems of the older versions.

  • What is the best way for a family to set up apple ID's and icloud?

    My partner and I have separate apple id's and own a mac book, ipad, 2 iphones and apple tv.  What's the best way to set it all up so we can access everything on each device?  Can we merge our ID's into one and transfer all our payments?  We just registered for icloud and used a new shared email address, but still have our separate apple ID's.  We have separate email addresses, calendars and notes that we would prefer to keep separate.  It's really just our itunes purchases, music and photos that we want to be able to share.  Thanks in advance!  Cheers, Nicky

    Not going to happen the way you want it to.
    When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
    Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

  • What's the best way to set up new imac for logic etc?

    In brief:
    Getting new imac (27", 3.4 i7, 8-16GB ram, 1TB HD). Will be using it mainly to run Logic Studio (loads of plugins) and Final Cut Express. I also have 2 external Hard drives one 500G one 1TB.
    The last imac I bought was my first and just went ahead and threw everything at it not really knowing where things should go. This time I want to set things up correctly.
    Basically, with what I've got, what is the best way to set things up. I.e where do I put logic files, samples, BFD2, Amplitube etc. Where do I put videos for use in FCE. Storing projects and backups for use with Time Machine.
    Also noticed the new imac will only have 1 firewire port. I will need to plug in the Hard drives (daisy chained), camera and RME Fireface 800. Was thinking of getting a Thunderbolt Hard drive but they are expensive and hard to find.
    Would really appreciate any help before I get the new machine and start messing things up again.
    Thanks.

    Adding to babowa, enable the system firewall in System Preferences>Security>Firewall tab. Click Advanced and check Stealth Mode.
    Lion is a pretty steady and secure operating system, and as there really aren't MANY Mac viruses, there ARE viruses out there still. OS X is pretty good about letting you know if you do accidently download a virus, and it will help you throw it away if it detects one, such as the MACDefender virus. OS X has built in security features such as sandboxing that doesn't allow viruses in as easily as a Windows PC. As for hackers, as long as you have the firewall enabled and a secure password (for your computer and email accounts), then you should be fine.
    It's the user that lets the virus in, not the computer (unless there's some untold serious vulnerability in OS X, which is highly unlikely). Keep your apps up to date, don't download pirated software, and be street smart on the internet. Don't download things or visit websites that you don't think are real. Safari includes a Phishing feature that automatically detects known phishing sites, protecting you from that big problem. Keep your passwords secure and you should be fine.
    There are antivirus solutions out there, one notable one available in the AppStore is Intego's VirusBarrier (free and plus versions), if you feel you still need one.
    I wouldn't worry about it. Windows users who switch to Mac are always asking these questions.
    Here's some good reading as well

  • What's the best way to manage Apple IDs for multiple devices?

    Hi,
    We have
    a shared Macbook air
    a shared iPad
    my iPhone
    his iPhone
    We want to put one ID on the Macbook and iPad that we can use to have the same iMessage on both and that we can put a card on and use in the iTunes store etc.
    We also want to have our own iMessages on our iPhones, plus be able to use the account with the cards on them to purchase and share across devices...
    What's the best way to manage them all?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    iTunes is straight forward, just use the same ID on all of them.
    What exactly do you want to see in messages on the Mac and iPad, messages combined from each of your phones or a different account just for both of you.
    You should think about what you want in calendars, contacts etc, on your shared devices.

  • My wife and I share an Ipad.   We each have our own email address and calendar.   What is the best way for us to backup both accounts (we currently only have 1 ICloud account)?   Thanks for any help!    Alan

    My wife and I each have our own email address and calendar.  These are on one IPad.   The Ipad has a single ICloud account.
    What's the best way to backup both Calendars, etc?   Does ICloud automatically back up every account on the same IPad?  (I checked ICloud, but I could only find my stuff.)
    Thanks for any help!
    Alan

    First, you need to understand that there's a difference between "syncing" and "backup".  Backup is the saving of content and settings, where syncing is the bidirectional transfer of content for an account to a web-based server (like iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc.)
    If you see your calendar in your iCloud account, that implies that you have set up your iCloud account to host (sync) your calendar, and perhaps contacts, email, and notes.  An iCloud account can only sync one user's information at a time so it is intended to support a single user.  You can have more than one iCloud account, and you can even have more than one iCloud account on the same device (but one has to be primary, and the secondary iCloud has limited capabilities), but a single iCloud account only supports a single user's content.
    Backup is the saving of your device's content and settings to use in case you need to recover these things, but you can't see the contents of your backup (just the size and device name).  You can backup more than one device to iCloud and you can backup to iCloud or you can backup to your computer, or both (one at a time though, you have to choose). 
    So, if your wife has her own email and calendar she can certainly do that in parallel to whatever account(s) you have for email and calendar.  But if you have only one iCloud account then only one of you can use it for email, calendar, etc.  But the backup of these accounts is really just a backup of the device's settings that link the device to these accounts. For example, if she uses Gmail then the backup of the iPad only backs up the fact that your iPad is set up to use her account, it does not backup the account itself (the content of her account is saved and preserved on Google's servers, not your device's backup).
    Does that make better sense?

  • What is the best way of creating admin-only parameters for a java iView?

    Hi,
    I would appreciate some advice from more experienced developers...
    The scenario is as follows: I have created an Org Chart maintenance application that generates and renders xml&xsl-based Org Charts. This is the maintenance iView.
    I am creating a second iView that points to each org chart(the 'Viewer' iView). This iView will be re-used many times, for different parts of our organisation. My problem is I want the portal administrator to be able to set the specific Org Chart that each instance of the 'viewer' iView points to. This needs to be editable as a configurable property.
    I imagine that this is accomplished through the use of properties, what is the best way to accomplish this?
    Many thanks,
    Mark Hockings

    I believe that you should be able to specify the 'personalization' property to be no-dialog. This doesn't allow users to be able to change the property, but can be changed when creating the iView definition
    I hope this helps
