My family (me, wife and 2 daughters) all have iPhones and share a single apple ID. We want to share music, etc. but would like to manage our contacts separately. Right now we all see a collective list of contacts. How do we manage some items like this independently?
Info:
iPhone 5, iOS 7.1.1
My contacts merged with those of another family member as we were sharing the same Apple ID. How do I unmerge them
Info:
iPhone 4
Can anyone tell me, if it is possible to share ical with family members on 2 iphones? I want my wife to be able to see my calender and vice versa. I thought it was possible with iCloud. I have tryed to google a solution, without results. The solution that came up didn't work.

"Cannot Start Family Sharing. An account can start or join a Family group twice a year. This account will be able to use Family Sharing again in 293 days."Â

1. I receive app requests regularly from my son.Â
2. If my phone is inactive, I get a notification of the request that I can swipe to approve, but it might be buried in a few notifications - requires me to be attentive. If my phone is active, I get a 2-3 second notification - requires me to be responsive quickly.Â
3. If I don't swipe the correct inactive notification (and sometimes if if I do), or if I tap the notification during activity:
    a) sometimes I'm taken to the app store where I can review the app request
    b) sometimes my current activity freezes. I have to power off.
    c) sometimes nothing happens (no freezing, no app store...nothing)Â
4. All in all, our results are about 30/70 success to fail. It's not a really great ratio.Â
5. If I want to find the message due to not being able to immediately respond, I can't. Where is it? Why is this nice-seeming feature so hard to troubleshoot on our own?

My sent messages cannot be seen by other members in all BB Group chats, but I receive all chats from members ... I can still chat with the same members on one-on-one basis (not in group chat) ...I am using BB 9550 Storm2 with OS v. 5.0.0.607 with BBM ver 5.0.1.41
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've been added to a BBM group of 22 members, but I cannot see any other members but the person that added me (the creator) and myself. It only shows 2 members are in my group. I also only get the messages that the creator has posted in the group. The creator can only see all 22 members. I have deleted the group then asked one of the other members to add me, it still shows only two members being the person that added me and myself.

1) i can only see the person that invite me to the group and later i get an error message saying 'you are currently disconneted with....in this group. would you like to re-invite him/her?'
2) however, when i post a comment, it can be viewed by all the members of the group.
So I just signed up for the 4g upgrade, but was curious if anyone from the beta group could comment on their experience, specifically how long it took. The reason I'm asking is because I leave for vacation on the 8th of October and will be gone for 2 weeks.

so I am thinking Nokia should mark this as a play phone not for business usage? I am quite frustrated that I got a new phone but force to use back my 5800 xpress music because most of my contacts transfer over is kinda screw up, and yes I have went to a Nokia care center and all they can reply "is a new software is like that".
My wife and I have brand new iPhone 4's and think the sound from the ear piece is muffled. I can't figure out if there is something wrong or just how it is suppose to be. Any hints. Just doesn't sound right on both our phones.

I'm trying to get a family plan right now with my friend but my friend lives Ohio and i live in Pennsylvania. If I get a new contract and add a line, is it possible that my friend can pick her iPhone up in her state and I pick my iPhone up in Pennsylvania?
And one more question. In a family plan, does one person have to pay the total bill or is it possible to divide the bill equally?
It seems that the new (4G) IPhone according to the leaked prototypes has a micro SIM card. So the usual upgrade plan for many (wife has a free upgrade, gets the new phone, which is swapped with the spouses current iIhone) does not work as the physical format of the cards is different.
Any idea if AT&T can transfer the SIM and change the phone numbers so that this is working again. Is this why Apple is doing this? While there is an adapter from micro to normal SIM one has to physically cut the normal sim card down (gulp). Don't want to know what AT&T is saying if you go to them and say the card doesn't work since it was cut down.
So if I have two IPhones on a family plan, will both phones have a 2GB limit, or will they share the 2GB? Anyone know how ATT will handle this?
View 15 Replies View RelatedSince AT&T seems to be ridiculous with this pushing upgrades back business, my 3GS made it so I can't upgrade myself, but I'm going to be using my little brother on the family plan's upgrade. The issue is, I'll be in California for Camp while my whole family will be in Oregon.
I'm just trying to figure out the best way to do this. Can I order it to Camp with his phone number on it, then when I get it, plug it into my computer and just put my phone number in it, and still pay the $199 instead of $399? Is there a better way to do this?
I'm a current AT&T and IPhone 3G user. My contract is expired and I am eligible to upgrade to the new IPhone 4. My friend and I would like to start a family plan together and both get IPhone 4's. Would I still be able to get my $30/month unlimited data if we start a new family plan? Or would I now be reverted to AT&T new data plan?
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow exactly does it work? Is it different from the family plan with normal phones. Right now I have an IPhone 3g and my wife has a basic cell phone added onto my plan as an extra line for $9.99. Would this stay the same if we BOTH were to get the new IPhone, and the only thing extra to pay for would be an extra $25 a month for the data plan for her phone? I'm just looking for a break down of how the IPhone family plan works, not sure if there is a combined family data plan or if you pay for each individually. Any info on this would be appreciated, AT&Ts site isn't very clear.
View 5 Replies View RelatedCan anyone provide me with a link to At&t's family plan pricing for the IPhone now that they have the new data plans? I'm trying to figure out whether it will be cheaper for me to get my wife an IPhone or let her keep her crappy phone on another carrier. I can't seem to find it anywhere on At&t's site.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI apologize for the constant barrage of IPhone 4 upgrade questions, but here is mine, laid out for my needs.
- My dad has himself and 4 other member of our family on a family*Family Plan.
- I am the only person in the family with an IPhone.
- Everyone is available for an AT&T upgrade, except for me (February 2011).
Here is my question:
I would like to get the new iPhone 4 when it comes out. My friend wants to buy my IPhone 3Gs. She is on Verizon. From what I read, I can do family plan upgrade transfers, etc. Could I use her phone to upgrade to an IPhone 4, sell my old phone, have her new IPhone transferred over to my 3G SIM card (I would keep my old number, and she would keep hers), and she would simply put a sim card back into her old phone, with her old number. Essentially, both myself and my mother would like to keep our existing numbers, but I would be using her upgrade for myself. However, I would be willing to change my number if that is the only way it works out. What is the exact process involved with this 'maneuver'?
Me and my fiancée want to get the IPhone 4 but I've been hearing that apple wont sell or activate two IPones to the same family plan. How would I go about preordering? I called apple and At&t and they didn't have a clear answer.
View 6 Replies View RelatedOn At&t's website I can get a family plan for like 60-70 bucks with like 450 minutes. On apples website however the cheapest is 99.
View 17 Replies View RelatedSo me and my sister are on a FAN family plan and we both want to upgrade to the IPhone 4. Shes getting a full discount and im only getting an early upgrade discount since i got the 3GS last year. Is it true that I am only allowed one pre order per household from ATT.com? and if so, how can i pre order the other one? can I pre order from apple and still keep my same voice, messaging, and data plan?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWe have just moved from MobileMe, where we had a 'Family account' (and we each have our own @me.com email addresses) to iCloud. We share the Cal and Contacts on our iMac. How do we sync to multiple devices - we each have an iPad and an iPhone, but with different accounts set up for mail. Mine syncs OK to Cal and Contacts, but hers doesn't. There must be a way!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm on a family plan with 3 people. Father, me, and brother. My father has a crappy black razr from a long time ago, me and my brother both got the 3gs the day it was released. My brother is the primary line on the plan, so he's eligible for the upgrade. My father doesn't care about his phone so he's eligible for an upgrade as well, but since I'm not the primary line and I just got my 3GS, I would have to pay $399. My father said I could go ahead and use his upgrade. Can I go in to Att and use his upgrade without ever activating the phone on his line? Obviously we do not want to have the data plan on his line, and I would like to keep the unlimited data on my account.
View 24 Replies View RelatedHas anyone ordered through the mail before on a family plan? Both my wife and my phones are on my family account. I have a 3GS and she has a 3G. We're both eligible for upgrade pricing with an $18 charge per phone. Can I order both phones online and have them both delivered to me, activate my phone at work and then just set her phone up when we get home that night? Seems like this will all work out fine but I didn't know if I wasn't thinking of something.
