My parents bought an iPad recently, intending to share it. They were dumfounded that it could only have one account and amazed that no-one had pointed it out to them when they went to buy it. It's now my Dad's iPad, which is a shame for my Mum.
Does this mean I could have got them a free Apple Business Manager account and given them two accounts? I assume it's not that simple, despite ABM being free?
- frizlab 2y agoYou have to be a school or an organization (they ask for the DUNS number for organizations, that I’m sure of).
- samch 2y agoNo, you don’t need ABM. See my earlier message about Apple Configurator.

- kylehotchkiss 2y agoThat's a bummer. You should get your mom a 5G iPad mini for the upcoming holidays! Great connectivity and form factor.
