I never wanted to be in a position of rebuying anything, so everything has always been purchased on a single account. This has its own share of problems with syncing Devices, and pretty much means I have to sync every device myself. I've found the tradeoff acceptable as the last thing I wanted to do was manage multiple accounts with multiple purchase histories. The problem that I have now is that my AppleID necessarily has a fairly simple password (I have to type it frequently on my iPhone), and I have my iOS and OS X developer accounts on it as well. When it comes time to renew, I may create a second Apple ID just for those. As far as I know, there is currently no way to combine accounts into one, and Apple does allow five accounts to cohabitate on your phone. This seems to be a magic number for 'family' as we see it all the time but I wonder what families with 4 or 5 kids do for mobile 'family plans'? _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
