How do I set up a seperate account for my wife?

We finally purchased a nice new iPhone for my wife. But she would like her own iTunes account. How do I set up a seperate account for her? She has her own laptop, with an iTunes account on it that I was using. Should I just un-install that iTunes package and have her download a new version? I'd rather have two versions so I don't lose the music on that old iTunes account. It's not huge, but would be a PITA.

Apple ID
Go to iTunes > Store > Sign Out (your apple id) and sign your wife apple id in.

    How do I set up an email account for my wife in icloud?

    iCoud email accounts are tied to iCloud accounts.  If she has her own iOS device go to to Settings>iCloud and set up an iCloud account.  This will generate an corresponding iCloud email address.

  • I have just bought a mini ipad for my daughter set it up in my apple id so she could keep all her apps games etc, how do i set up a seperate account for her ipad and also keep my own id @

    I have just bought a mini ipad for my daughter and used my apple id to set it up for her so she can keep all her apps and downloads of my ipad that she was using, i was wondering how do i give her, her own apple id so that she can keep all her apps and then i can two seperate accounts ?

    You cannot transfer the purchases to another account. What she has purchased with your account will always be tied to your ID. That's the way that it works. You can have her create her own Apple ID to use with Cloud account, FaceTime and Messages.
    But if you create a new ID for her, she will have to flip flop between the two Apple ID's in order to update apps, and if she wants to make purchases with her own ID, you also have to consider the fact that she may run the risk of locking herself out of her own ID by downloading a past purchase using your ID, after she starts buying with her own ID.

  • My wife and I have been using the same iTunes account, but would like to have separate apps on our phones.  How can I set up a separate account for her?

    My wife and I have been using the same iTunes account for both our iPhones, but she wants separate apps from mine.  How can I set up a second account in her name, delete the apps on her phone and start from scratch with just the apps she wants on her phone?

    If you have the old phone, connect it to iTunes, right click on the device, and choose transfer purchases.  If you no longer have the old phone, I don't believe there is a way to recover them, as they were on your original device.

  • How do I set up a mail account for an older macbook?

    I'm trying to set up a mail account for my dad on a used (but refurbished) macbook. It's running 0SX10.6.8. I'm not sure how to configure the incoming and outgoing mail servers. I didn't have to do this for my macbook air and my brother did not have to do it for his pro. I don't know if im supposed to use POP or IMAP. A window will pop up asking  for the account type, incoming mail server, user name, and password. I don't know what to do from here.

  • How do I set up different icloud accounts for each family member and make them able to access them on our common mac using their user name on the mac.  I am doing this to make sure kids don't get access to our messages.

    We have several apple products in the family.  I would like to set up different icloud accounts for each memeber.  I lately noticed having activated different devices with same icloud account that each device can access everyones messages by going in their settings and clicking which number or email they want to use to see messages.  Let me make sure I am understood, on my sons ipod in his messages settings he can switch to my cell number and see all my messages.  Re setting the devices isn't my great issue but can i set up each kids user account on my mac to their individual icloud accounts?
    Thanks!

    Any devices connected to the same icloud account can sync all the data on that account.  For this reason an icloud account is really for a single user.
    On a mac, if each user has their own account, then the itunes for that mac account should be set up to connect to that user's icloud account (System preferences>icloud).

  • How do I set up an itunes account for my minor child?

    We're getting an ipod touch for our son for his 8th birthday. How do I set up his own Itunes account so he can store his apps on his own account? (I'm getting a little overloaded with apps on my iphone.) Can I set it up under my itunes account or does he need a separate one?
    Also, is there anyway to sync the Apps I already have on my itunes account onto his new ipod touch?
    Thanks,
    darcyfromdayton

    I did this earlier this morning on my MacBook in iTunes.
    Straight forward:
    1. Creat an account with your child's birthday which is at least 13 years old.
    2. Set the account up using your credit card.
    3. Sign out and then back into your kids account.
    4. Edit the payment by selecting NONE which will delete your credit card info.
    5. Sign your kids account out of iTunes store.
    6. Log into your iTunes store account and send your kid a iTunes Gift or set them up with an allowance.
    7. Your kid can now make purchases on their iPhone, iPod, iPad  without affecting your credit card or bank account.
    Have fun!
