Hello, I was hoping someone could help me and my wife set up our idevices the best way possible.
We both have our own iPhone and our own ipad
We share a macbook.
Right now we use a common apple login so we can share app purchases and out itunes library. But because of this I have to turn off iCloud on her devices. My contacts sync between my ipad and iPhone, hers do not because if I turn it on for her, she'll get all my stuff right?
Basically we would like to SHARE:
iTunes and App Store purchases (don't want to have to pay twice for the same app)
iTunes in the cloud library.
Photo stream (preferably on our Mac Book only. I don't mind if every picture she takes goes there, but I would rather not have them show up on my iPhone and ipad.
Find my iPhone.
Keep SEPERATE:
iCloud contact, calendar, mail etc etc from syncing with each other's devices
iMessage, FaceTime
I'm thinking the best way would for us to have one Apple ID we share for purchases, and then each have our own individual iCloud login for syncing data between our devices? If I do this, could I then get my Macbook to photo stream pictures from BOTH me and my wife?
If there is a better way to do this, please let me know.
Thanks!
