Or remove you from his, it's moot because You and He are the same account, either get him his own (they are free) or live with this cozy but privacy compromised method.

Me and my daughter are using the same Apple id and we share the same iCloud account. I want to change her Apple id so that she will have her own icloud account and I will have mine.
1. how do I do it?
2. how do I transfer her stuff which is in my icloud storage to her new icloud account once this one is created?
thanks,
Ari

To migrate her device to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos she wants to keep to her amera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If she is syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of the notes and email them to her so she can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in her new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
Once you are on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com from a computer and delete the other person's data from your account.

Your contacts are helpd on the server, so if you sign out from your iCloud account and sign into another one they will disappear. If you sign back into the original account they will reappear.

HT204053 My wife and I are using the same apple ID. since last week, i am required to pay twice for the same app on our 2 devices (even though we are using the same ID). what can I do to fix this?

My wife and I are using the same apple ID. Up until last week we used to buy an app and pay for it only once, but use it on both devices.
since last week, the app store asks me to pay again for an app i already paid for on one device. On both devices automatic downloads (in settings) is and was always turned off.
what can I do to fix this?

Actually no. After installing an app on one device, I used to see an "install" button on the second device (since it's already been paid for). Now i get the full price button on the second device. I didn't want to proceed with the purchase because i didn't want to be billed twice.

My husband and I both have facetime on our laptops. I believe we both are using the same apple id. Does he have to have a seperate apple id so we can use face time?

I believe you can manage your laptops with one Apple id, but I recommend that you have individual Calling ID's for each laptop. This calling ID is under the "You can be reached for calls at:" line when your in Facetime preferences. This will allow you two guys to call each other on your laptops, plus you don't have to be bothered by people calling him, or visa versa.

HT204380 Can you FaceTime between 2 iPads that are using the same apple ID but separate emails?

Can you FaceTime between 2 iPads that are using the same apple ID but separate emails?

Yes......I do so all the time.

I have two Macs and I am using the same Apple ID on both. All of my info, history etc is showing up on both. How do I turn this off?

You likely have iCloud turned on in at least Safari. If you don't want Safari to sync between these devices turn one of them off. System Preferences - iCloud - Safari (uncheck the box)

Is it possible to change the Apple id on one device while keeping all purchases and apps? Also, several other devices are using the same apple Id.

There are about 3 devices that use the same apple id. I would like to take my iphone and make my own apple id but I don't want to lose all the purchases that were made on the original apple id

You can sign out and sign in with the new ID. The old purchases wont go away.

We have 2 iphones 4 and one ipod touch and they all use the same apple address for purchases. How do we stop getting each others texts?

We are recieveing each others texts, it has only happened since we upgrated to iOS6. We only get each others iMessages.

You have two issues: 1. iPad is designed for single person use, not multiple users like a computer is, 2. Everyone trying to use this "single person" device uses the same Apple ID. As far as iMessage is concerned, this is the same person...how would it know differently?
There is no solution to fix this. Even if everyone got their own Apple ID's, you're still trying to use a device, designed to be used by a single user, with multiple users. It simple is not gonna work, and if you manage to get it to work, it won't work very well.

HT1414 I have A mac computer and 2 iPods, I just bought a iphone5 and want to use the same apple ID for all, But I can't get onto iMessage or FaceTime on the iPhone with the same apple id. Why?

I have a Mac computer and 2 ipods all using the same apple ID. I just bought an iphone5 and now want to use same apple ID but I can't it says I cannot connect to server.

Personally, I'd keep it simple and keep the same one.

If I restore an Ipad will all others that are using the same apple id lose their apps?

If I restore an Ipad that is disabled will all other Ipads using the same Apple ID lose their apps and information that is on them?

Nope. Just on the one you restore.

HT204053 My wife and me are using the same apple id on our ipads, can we have separate icloud accounts?

I want to know if you can have a separate icloud account on your ipad, the account is in my wife's apple id, i want a separate icloud account on my ipad.

If you are talking about Game Center, she can migrate to a different iCloud account and keep her Game Center ID the same (it doesn't need to be the same as her iCloud ID.
To migrate her iPad to a separate iCloud account, start by saving any photo stream photos she wants to keep to her camera roll (unless already there) by opening her my photo stream album, tapping Select (Edit in iOS 6), tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward pointing arrow (Share in iOS 6), then tap Save to Camera Roll. If she is syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to her so she can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in her new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; this won't effect your iPad), choose Keep on My iPad and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone (if using iOS 7). Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload her data to the new account.
Once she is on a separate account, you can each go to icloud.com from your computer and delete the other person's data from your account.
To avoid getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls, make sure you are not sharing the same Apple ID for these services. If you are, on her iPad go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID (such as her new iCloud ID).

TS2755 I have an 11 yr old and want to use the same apple id because I don't want to allow her an email address now. Is there a way to still use IMessage or does it connect all texts to both phones? How about pics? Thank you.

I have an 11 yr old who I want to use my apple id on our Iphones jointly. We do not want her to have an email address currently because of some issues. Anyway, does both phones being connected to the same apple id mean that when IMessage is used that we both get the same messages? Also, what causes our pics to each other not to go through the system? Thank you for any assistance!

IF both devices have the same Apple ID signed in ; it will believe the devices are meant to both recieve them. My biggest recommandation is you can create an email address for your daughter and in the future when she gets her own email address she can chang ethe primary email address to the up to date one.

My daughter and I currently use the same Apple ID. What do I need to do to make sure her music is not on my phone?

My daughter and I share the same Apple ID. When she purchases music, it is always on my phone, and vice versa. I donot want her music on my phone. How can I do this without erasing it from her phone as well?

This is not really an iCloud issue.
But
Use iTunes on a computer and sync just the music you want.
iTunes remembers your iPhone's sync info and will not take the music off her iPhone

My husband and I both use the same Apple ID, but we can't use his number for iMessaging or FaceTime on his iPad and still have access to all our other music and apps... How can I add his number to be used?

I want to use my husband's contact number on his iPad so that we can iMessage and especially FaceTime, but we share the same Apple ID. This works fine on our phones, why can't we have the option to use his contact number on his iPad the same way? This iPad can only be used with WiFi (contrary to what we were told upon purchasing it...). Anyone have any helpful advice??

This is not an area where I have any expertise, but you may want to consider using separate Apple IDs and using the recently released Family Sharing capabilities which still allow you to share your music and apps.
