Can i have 2 iclouds with one itunes account

Hubby and I just received our new iphones yesterday and we are attempting to get them set up. We currently have one itunes account (and we would like to keep it that way), but in setting up the icloud, don't we each have to have our own? We are fine with this, but not sure how to set them up individually as the phone seems to automatically want to point to itunes for the initial setup.

On the iPhone, it is possible to set one email address as the Apple ID for the iTunes and App stores, and another for iCloud services.
So, if I am understanding what you want to do correctly, you should:
Go under Settings > Store and enter the Apple ID you want to use for purchases (which will be the same on the two devices).
Go under Settings > iCloud and enter the email you have set up for iCloud services (which will be different on your devices, and different from the email you used for the Store).

  • I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

    I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

  • Can you use two ipads with one itune account

    We have two ipads and one Itunes account.  Are we able to have separate accounts within iTunes so my husband can have his games on his account and I can have mine?

  • Can you have two iPads on one iTunes account?

    Can i add two iPads to one iTunes account and then move one to another iTunes account at a later date?

    I sync three different iDevices with one iTunes account/iTunes library on my Mac. You can select the exact content that you want to sync to each device by customizing the sync settings for each device.
    If you want to sync the iPad with another iTunes account or iTunes library at a later date - you will lose all of the content on the iPad from the old iTunes account. You can only sync with one iTunes library at a time and if you consider the iTunes account to be what is in your iTunes library - meaning content that you bought with one particular Apple ID - then you can only sync one account at a time as stated.
    Perhaps if you defined or explained exactly what you mean by iTunes account, this could be clarified a little more.

  • Can you have 2 iphones on one itune account

    My wife and i both have a iphone now and we currently have them both under one itunes account.  We have noticed that both of our contacts show up in each of our phones.  is there a way to keep this from happening?  Or do we need to set up two different itune accounts?

    My spouse and I have one iTunes account but separate apple IDs. Are you sharing apple IDs? That might be the problem. We have two iPads not two iPhones (yet), but seems like it would most likely work the same. I don't see his contacts and he doesn't see mine, so that would be my suggestion. Make sure you each have your own apple IDs but one iTunes account and see if you still have the same issue.

  • Can i have two devices sharing one itunes account

    i currently have my iphone synced with my itunes account, i have just bought a ipod and want it to share the same itunes account, library etc, how do i do this without wiping it off my phone when ading the new ipod ??

    This won't be a problem, iTunes will see the new device as a separate device, it will have its own settings under iTunes, you can set it up to sync the same content or different content to the first device, it will have no effect on how the first device syncs with iTunes.

  • Can i use two devices with one itunes account?

    I share a laptop with my husband.  We have had "sync" issues in the past with his contacts and my contacts intermingling on our separate iPhones.  Can I create two different iTunes accounts for us to sync independently?  What should I do about this?  With the advent of iCloud, we're both going to be autosyncing...right???

    This won't be a problem, iTunes will see the new device as a separate device, it will have its own settings under iTunes, you can set it up to sync the same content or different content to the first device, it will have no effect on how the first device syncs with iTunes.

  • Can i have two iphones on one itunes account

    I have an iphone for personal and a new one for work. I want to have all the same information on both phones!! is th possibel?, and how do i do it?

    Yes, you can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups.

  • How can I have two devices with separate iTunes accounts on the same computer without sharing libraries?

    I have an iPhone 3s and my sister has an iPhone 3.  We use them only as iPods.  We each have our own iTunes account, but we have to share a computer.  How can we both syn our devices without sharing our music and app libraries?

    The most reliable way would be to set up individual user accounts in WIndows. Then each of your iTunes libraries will be completely separate.
    Regards.

    I started with one itunes account for my iphone and ipad, and now have a second ipad linked to the same itunes.  Can I set up a new itunes account for one ipad without losing what has already been downloaded on it?  I want to stop my husbands downloads appearing on my ipad, and vice versa.

    A much simpler solution would be to go into Settings > Store and turn off Automatic Downloads
