Waaaaait. I don't understand what are you asking. You're saying it alerts you on both but you want a solution that it alerts you only on your iPad or Mac?

Yes, DJ, i think that is what he is asking. Also, patrick, I suggest you make your titles clearer, it helps people to understand that you were asking. :)

3	Sign out on one of the devices? answered Jul 26 '12 at 19:11 ryebread761 7.5k●216●242●325

2	Go to notification center or the setting for the notifications and turn them off on the devices you don't want to be notified of them. answered Jul 27 '12 at 11:55 nitrocrime 3.6k●64●77●126

I agree - I think it sometimes notices when you are having a conversation on one device, it doesn't send notifications to the others - but it doesn't work 100%.

In the future with iOS 6, you can turn on Do Not Disturb when you want to shut up the iPad. Alternatively, if you have Mountain Lion, open notification center and scroll up slightly - you can disable notification banners temporarily.
