How do you set up separate facetime accounts under one apple id

how do you set up separate facetime accounts under one apple id

This is possible, but I haven't found any official Apple topics about it, so I will share a nice web article about it on a Mac fan website:

Hope this helped!

  • HT5622 how do i set up multiple iCloud accounts under one apple id

    i would like to set up icloud accounts for several people but all while staying under the same apple id.  a verizon employee at the store nearest me told me this is possible by going to apple.appleid.com, but this did not work for me

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    An apple ID is an account. If your family require that their contacts, calendars etc are separate from each other, they all need their own Apple ID (account).
    iCloud is a different service from iTunes, you can all use different Apple IDs for your iCloud service, would use the same ID for iTunes, thereby being able to share your music, apps, books, TV shows and movies et cetera.

  • 2 iphone 5's, 1 itunes account to share music; how do you set up 2 icloud accounts using one MacBookPro?

    My wife and I each purchased the iphone 5 and we share an itunes account. How do I sync our iphones to our MacBookPro so we each have our own iCloud account (contacts, calendars, etc.)? We want to be able to share the itunes music on our computer.

    If you are sycing your contacts and calendars with iCloud, don't sync them with your computer using iTunes.  If you sync with both iCloud and iTunes this will cause duplicates.  If you want to keep your contacts, calendar, etc. separated rather than merged, be sure to set up separate iCloud accounts on both phones using different Apple IDs.  You can continue to share the same Apple ID for purchasing music, apps, etc.; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iCloud, iMessage or other services.
    In terms of syncing your music and other non-iCloud data with the same computer, this article will explain different options depending on how you want to set it up: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495.

  • Can I set up separate cloud accounts with one apple id?

    we have several devices (6) but don't want to have to re-purchase all of the music and apps

    You will need to use separate IDs to set up separate iCloud accounts.  However, you can continue to share the same ID for purchasing but use different IDs for iCloud.  (The ID you use for purchasing does not need to be the same as the ID you use for other services.)  You will also want to use separate IDs for iMessage and FaceTime to avoid getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

  • How do I set up multiple iCloud accounts on one Apple ID?

    My whole family uses the same Apple ID, but we all want separate iCloud accounts, because I keep on getting contacts from my children's iPhones and iPads. They want accounts between their iPads and iPhones, but I want a separate iCloud. How do they set up a new iCloud on their devices (they don't have Macs)?

  • HT1660 How can I maintain two separate itunes accounts on one single device without erasing either set of data?

    How can I maintain two separate itunes accounts on one single device (iPhone 4) without erasing either set of data when syncing with itunes?

    Hi,
    Depends on what you trying to setup but for purchases, you can roll down at the very end of the iTunes/AppStore pages to logout of your current account and then login into a different one.  Then your purchase will be billded to this new account.  Everything will sync as you used to but in order to use the purchased content in iTunes or other devices, you will need to authorize them (you can have up to 5 devices authorized for an account).

    how do you set up and exchange account for google mail

    If it's a free gmail account, you don't. Google no longer permits free accounts to be set up using Exchange Active Sync. Only paid google apps accounts can be set up as Exchange accounts.

  • HT1373 how can you set up another iTunes account but keep all your purchases and music from a previous account

    how can you set up another iTunes account but keep all your purchases and music from a previous account

    An iTunes account is something you log into online to buy music.
    An iTunes library is a collection of media and other items (including apps) on your computer.  This is what you see when you open iTunes.
    So, do you mean account or library?  You can set up a new iTunes account but all your purchases made in that account will remain in the old account and cannot be moved.  You can set up a new library by starting iTunes and immediately hold down the option key.

  • How do you set up two different ipads on one computer ?

    I purchased a new ipad for my wife and want to get her started but we both use one imac as our desktop system.  How do you set up two different uses on one computer.
    Thanks,

    Other options not covered in the article:
    1) You can plug both in under the same computer username and same iTunes Apple ID and give each device it's own name. You should be able to manage them as separate devices with different media, apps and screen layouts. All of your media would be in a common pool, though.
    2) Under one computer username, you can login and logout of two different iTunes Apple IDs. This option is cleaner with two computer usernames but it can be done with one.

  • HT204053 can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

    can you have two separate iCloud accounts on one iMac device?

    You can have only one iCloud "user configuration" per local user on the Mac. Who the local user belongs to doesn't mind. Since it's a local user it's not related with who actually uses it. So let's say you want to set up Photo streaming using your iCloud user, just configure iCloud (under System Preferences) the same way you did on your phone and you're done.
    But, beware: if you're only interested in synching photos, uncheck everything else when configuring iCloud on the Mac, otherwise you will merge, for example, your husband contacts, calendar and mail with those on your phone.
    If you want to avoid any problems you can easily create another local user on the Mac with your name, under System Preferences, System, Users & Groups. After you create the user, logoff. The Mac will ask if you want to disable autologin (since there's more than one user that can log in now), answer yes and you will be presented with a logon screen. Click on your account name, insert the password and configure iCloud to sync with your phone.
