My wife and I both have ipad 2's and my son has an ipod touch. Currently we all use the same itunes account which is under her name. I am wondering how we can all have different accounts and yet still be able to share oour apps and everything. I find all sorts of info on sharing music but not about apps accross different accounts. My son and I are tired of our devices showing MISSY on everthing. Can someone please help?

What is showing your wife's name?

My wife and I share a single iTunes account so that we don't have to purchase apps twice (you would have to, no getting around it that I know of), but my phone, other than when I go into the app store, has my own iTunes account and information on it. I sign into Game Center using my own iTunes ID rather than her's. Works fine for me.

Not sure what would say missy besides her email address if it does, but if its changeable change it to something like your last name.
