Hi Josh, I don't know what that option might be, but I think the reality is that iCloud services are becoming increasingly personal. So it makes sense to have a collective ID for the store, but a separate ID for each individual. You could always sign him out of iMessage I guess, but then he wouldn't be able to use the feature at all.

Is that not still there? It may not be there and that is why I am not finding it or I am not looking in the right location one. Anyhow thank you for the information.

Or simply create a new Apple ID for your son for these other services, and sign him in to it. Alternatively, Apple has announced that when iOS 8 comes out, it will be introducing a new feature called Family Sharing. This allows multiple Apple IDs to share the same content. So you could set up a new Apple ID for your son on his iPad, then next month when iOS 8 comes out, add him to a Family Sharing group in which you or your wife are the Family Organiser. That way there is o need to purchase the apps again. I have an entire chapter on how to do this in my book, iOS 8 Without the Eye, which will be released the same day iOS 8 is. For now though, giving your son his own ID for iCloud services while keeping the existing one for the store will fix the problem.

To explain a little more the text messages I receive and send pop up on the iPad. Some of the conversations between my wife and I regarding him does not need to be discussed in front of him nor where he can freely look at it. Is there any way to make the iPad quit receiving the messages that I am sending and receiving without changing the account it is on? I want to keep the same account so I do not have to repurchase the apps that he loves and are inaccessible to me. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
