I tried to buy myself a Jawbone from the Apple Store but my ID was rejected.
Our Apple ID was set up in both our names using our main email address with Password A by Daniel, who explained the advantages of having a single ID. When I upgraded my iPad to iOS 7 I ticked a wrong box and had to change the password to Password B. This password was working yesterday when Graham updated his iPhone. At some stage Graham set up a separate ID using his name and his personal email address, I can't remember why this was necessary or whether he set is up by mistake (we are both approaching 80 so senior moments are frequent). When I put my user name in this morning I forgot to put both our names, I knew Password B was working yesterday, I was very careful entering it and later typed it on a 'sticky' and pasted it in, still rejected. I used the 'forgot user name' route. The email went to my secondary email address which I have only ever used for family history mailing lists and my user name was in a form I don't use but is what is on my credit card. I went and looked at Graham's file where he has all our IDs and tried again with both our names, still rejected. I want to retain our shared ID but I am afraid I shall muck it up. I am still recovering from a recent bereavement (road accident) and my concentration span is verging on the negative. Please can someone tell me where to find a simple explanation of the various Apple IDs - Apple Store, iTunes etc? Also how did I manage to get this separate account? I remember once being asked to provide a back-up email address but I think that was Yahoo or Google and I would have provided my main address.
