Hi guys, let me explain my setup re: itunes and ipads
Both me and my partner have ipad 2's. They are registered to different email address with different credit cards, but we only have 1 computer and 1 itunes library. When I sync purchases back to the computer, it drops them all in the 'apps' section, and my partner does the same. If we right click the apps in the library and click 'info' we can see which account purchased the app, yet the strange thing is when my partner plugs her ipad in, she can choose to install the apps that I purchased onto her ipad and vice versa. Obviously, this is great for us, as we can get multiplayer games and only pay for them once, but I didnt think this was possible with Apple & iTunes? All the reading I've done suggests that app sharing for different accounts isnt possible.
Can anyone explain if what we are doing is normal, because in theory we could have the whole world and his dog come round and plug their ipad in to get our apps?
Thanks :thumbs:
