My family is currently sharing the same icloud on 6 different devices. We'd like for everyone to now have serperate icloud accounts, but will some of us loose downloads if we change icloud accounts?

As long as you share the same iTUNES account log in, you will have access to the family downloads, but have different ID's for

Settings > iCloud

SEttings > Facetime

Settings > MEssages > Send/recieve at

Have your family have a DIFFERENT apple id in these settings,

For the store just...

SEttings > ITunes & App Store

HAVE THE SAME ID SIGNED IN HERE; you will keep access to teh same account so Child A can have Child D's downloads and viceversa; However do note that set this expectation early; if the kids /ever/ want to have their own itunes store account they will not be able to update/redownload any music belonging to the other account and will have to repurchase them to add them to their own account

There is no exception, so if they want to fly solo, sooner then later is better.

Using airplay, I want to stream music from my Mac to my ipad in a different room

Like the question, I've connected my ipad to my Mac & my Apple TV but I would like to listen to music from my Mac in a different room and have the sound come from the iPad, I can control itunes and Apple TV from my ipad what is useful if I'm in the same room but what I really want is to know how to control the sound to come from the iPad, I can listen to stuff from cloud but the internet has a nasty habit of cutting out so airplay would be cooler.. Does anyone have any ideas?

Why is Remote app album view different than iTunes?

I use the Remote app on my iPad to control the streaming of my PC's iTunes music library to my stereo.  I like the Album view because I can see most of the album covers. In iTunes 11.1 on my PC, album view displays the albums alphabetically by artist.  i.e. all Beatles albums are listed before any Rolling Stones albums.  But when viewing the same library on my iPad using the Remote app, the albums are listed alphabetically by album title, not by artist.  So each artist's albums are scattered all over.  I don't know about you, but when I'm looking for an album to play, I think about artists, not titles of albums.  But there doesn't seem to be any way to change the way the Remote app orders albums.  Am I missing something?  Is there any way to configure the Remote app to display albums in artist order?

Different Mac usernames different iPads

I had asked his question many months ago, and only received alternate ways of setting up our home and how we organise our way of doing things.

 

We have just lived with this problem since then, but when my partner went out the other day and she wanted to show her photos to someone else from the iPad, they were all gone and replaced with mine.

 

At some point the iPad has been plugged in while I was logged in ..probably to charge it and sync had sync'd my data to her iPad..not contacts or mail or music  ..just the photos.

 

 

So I have been given the task of trying to sort this out once more. 

 

 

The setup is

3 different Mac usernames

3 different i devices (ipad, ipad mini, iphone)

enough power on Mac Pro to power / charge all devices

not connected by a hub

 

Each iDevice needs to be associated with a different username, so even though all devices are often connected at once, only want that users device to sync with ONLY their account.

 

Ideally I do not want my partners iPad or the work iPad sync'ing to my private User account on the Mac..just my iPhone.

 

When I log in to the Mac with work account , I want iTunes to just sync the work iPad.

 

it is OK for the devices to appear in other Mac Users iTunes, just not sync with them. 

 

 

Can this be done with the normal settings within iTunes or is this just an issue we have to live with.

 

 

Thanks

Putting music onto iPhone from a different Apple ID?

I bought new music with my mom's Apple ID and I want to put them onto my iPhone. When I go to download them from her Apple ID "Purchased", I get a message that says: "This Device Is Already Associated With An Apple ID. If you download past purchases with your Apple ID, you cannot auto-download or download past purchases with another Apple ID for 90 days." What happens if I click 'Transfer'? Will I still be able to download music on my own Apple ID account?

Re: Syncing Notes across different devices

Hello Demo, I'm sorry if I seemed a little curt with your very welcome, helpful response. I wasn't intending to be rude.

It obviously doesn't help that I'm a moron with Apple applications as I'm relatively new having come from many years of Windows platforms.

The problem seems to lie in my having TWO iCloud email addresses: ***@iCloud.com and ***@me.com. When I first joined iCloud through 'mobile me' some time ago, I was still using a Toshiba laptop but had purchased my first Apple product, an iPhone. This required me applying for an Apple account with an iCloud.com suffix but I have NEVER used either as an email address. I still use my old hotmail.com address. I'm now thinking that it's probably best to ditch this and my iCloud.com email address and transfer everything over to my me.com email address? Is this feasible and easy to do?

I'll understand totally if you just want to go and lie down in a darkened room! :-) Many thanks, Martin

TV show episodes are mixed between different shows...

So here is my problem. I have a number of TV shows that i am sharing in my home via Home Sharing. The problem comes up when accessing my shares with my ipad 2. I can find all of my episodes but they are mixed between shows, For example, show B episodes are listed with show A and show D is mixed with show C..... This is only happening when using home sharing and connecting to a lib with my ipad. Everything seems to work just fine with my apple tv. this is happening with a number of my shows.....i have tried everything i can think of....but i am drawing a blank now.

 

I have used the Get Info option and entered the correct show title, season number & episode number. I have also tried checking Part of compliationand any other option i thought would help. A few months ago i tried deleting my entire library and starting over but no help...Any help would be great!
