My Oh And I Now Share A Laptop , We Both Have Iphones.

He thinks that only one iPhone / Apple account can be installed on the laptop. I think he should be able to log in under his own Apple ID and password? Anyone give us the answer ? Thanks in advance!

Why not set up two accounts on your Windows laptop?

This is easy to do, just go into the Control Panel and find the User Accounts option.

Then set up an account for Jack and another for Jill (or whatever your names are).

Then when you start the laptop you can select whether to logon as Jack or Jill.

Each Windows user (Jack or Jill) can have their own browser favorites, there own desktop background, there own individual logons to things like iPhone accounts and so on.

This means you no longer need to share applications, and you can each logon using your own userid & password to any program.

We already have that set up. When OH downloaded ITunes on his desktop, an icon appeared in mine. Now when he updates his iPhone , it corrupts my iTunes.

You can have as many apple (iTunes) ids on one computer as you like. In iTunes under "store" there is the option to log in and log out.

[Gromit]

Items you have bought from iTunes cannot be uploaded to his phone. And vice versa.

[Borrheid]

Is ITunes like other websites such as a bank? Shortcut in desktop leads to site then input of personal ID and password ? Can't get my OH to understand!

[woofgang]

Kind of the same. More like a shopping website. If you and hub both shop on Amazon on the same computer, you have different user names and passwords.
Open itunes. top of screen there is the word "store" click on it. One of the options is to sign in if you are not signed in and to sign out if you are signed in. Sign hub out and sign yourself in.

Thanks folks! I knew ABers wouldn't let me down! I'll get OH to try it this way! ( which is what I thought all along - but don't tell him!)
