Can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords? Yes, there is more to the story.

I have an iMac, and iPhone. I've had my Apple ID for a few years.
My wife got an iPhone 4S a few months back and the salesperson at Verizon set her Apple ID the same as mine, but gave her a different password. I don't know if this was ok, but that is what happened.
So, yesterday, we both upgraded to IOS6 and I had no problem logging in to my iPhone with my Apple ID. When my wife went to log in, she was told that she was entering the wrong password. We entered the password over and over again and still was wrong.
The question is... can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords? (I have the feeling her iPhone is thinking that since it's my Apple ID, it wants my password.)
If not, can I still set up a new Apple ID for her even through she's had the iPhone for a few months?
Thanks.

Hi
You shold follow your feelings, its probably right most of the time.
You can have 5 different devices hucked upp to one Apple ID. What I have done is that my wife and I have one Apple ID, when I bye a new app on my phone, She gets it to. Thats nice.
You can allways set upp a new Apple ID for your wife.

Can two iPhones share the same apple id?

I have a white iPhone 4 and i just bought a new black iPhone 4. Can I activiate the new black iPhone 4 and use the same apple id on both of them? Will all the music be shared? Can I have access to the account on both phones?

No. The only information that may be transferred between the two is music, apps, or books if automatic downloads are turned on within Settings>iTunes and App Stores. However if you use the same Apple ID for iCloud on both devices they will share whatever information you share with iCloud. For instance if you have different contacts on both phones and use the same iCloud account with both of them they will then show a combination of the two contact libraries on both phones. So if you add a contact to one iPhone it will add the same contact to the other. The same goes with deleting contacts as well. Hope this helps.

I have two phones under the same apple ID and I want to put them on two separate apple IDs. how do I do this?

I have two phones under the same apple ID and I want to put them on separate apple IDs, how do I do this??

If you sign out of an Apple ID under Settings > iCloud, you should be prompted for an option to 'Keep on my iPhone' in regards to Contacts and other related data. Then, when signing in with another Apple ID on that same iPhone, you should be prompted to 'Merge'. If you do both, then you won't lose any Contacts, and the iCloud Contacts will then be merged into the new Apple ID iCloud, but also will stay on the old Apple ID iCloud.
In the future, it might be best to post your own question thread instead of bumping a thread that is over two years old.

Can two people share the same library?

I installed a new mac mini which we're planning on using as a media hub and as a machine to sync my iphone from. I want to have a "Server" login on it just for itunes to run the backend for Apple TV. However, I'd also like my itunes library on my "Personal" login. Can I share the same library betwixt the two (if put into the Shared folder?) or do I have to set it up in my Personal and then share it to the Server login? If I do that, don't I have to login to both and run itunes before it'll work? I'd like to avoid anything like that because I travel often and want something my family can leave on and reboot easily while I'm away, without giving my kids access to my Personal login.

Hi chris brian,
If you are looking to share the same iTunes library between multiple user accounts on the same Mac, you may find the following article helpful:

Two phones using the same apple id

I use the same apple ID for my daughters phone, hoever i do not want her to have my conatcts, etc... and vice versa but it has automatically copied them, how do i get rid of these and stop it happening?

1. To create an Apple ID, you need a valid e-mail address.
If you don't have one, there are a number of free e-mail account you can get e.g. Google GMail, Yahoo, Microsoft Hotmail.
2. Once you have a valid e-mail address, create Apple ID below:
https://appleid.apple.com
3. You can share the purchasing Apple ID for both iPhone in
Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID: > apple id here to share purchases eg. Books, Music, Apps...
4. All other Apple services (FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc...) you can use the same purchasing Apple ID and your daughter should use a different Apple ID.

Can two ipads share the same icloud account

hello. My wife and i recently added a second ipad to our household (his and hers). We would like to share the same icloud account fior photo streaming and music and such, but want to have our seperate emails, contacts and calendars on each ipad. Is this possible without having to create seperate icloud accounts?

Don't understand what you are trying to do.
You said 2 iPads using the same iCloud acoount, are you try to switch to another iCloud account?
Then you need to delete the one you have on iPad. Deleting iPad iCloud account do not delete the content in iCloud. You will be asked.

Can two users share the same mac desktop with two different iTunes accounts

I have a mac desktop, my husband and I share the mailbox for our emails but he has his itunes account on the computer. I have mine on an old mac laptop wHich is not working well any longer. Can I create a second Itunes on the desktop so we could both use the same computer yet keep our music separate

You can.
Your home account can have its own hard drive.
iTunes Media Library can be shared. Or not.
Even have your own boot drive if needed and you have different applications and configuration.
The Mac Pro and OS X are designed for multiple users. Not being limited to just one (or two, now that SSDs have found their way into iMac and laptops) has allowed more people to off load their media and data from the boot drive, which is always good.

How can two users share the same iTunes library in 10.7

I am running Lion 10.7 and there are two users on the iMac.
I would like full read/write access to our share music from either user account.
Currently I have the iTunes Media folder in users/shared and on my account it looks like a regular iTunes and in my preferences I have ticked the 'share' box, but on my wifes account she can see the shared library but the only view available is a simple list.

Try putting it on a removable drive, like a flash drive.

Can two iPhones share the same phone number?

I have an iPhone 4s and a 6, and would like to switch between them, based on the activity I'm doing.

No, however, you could use call forwarding to redirect the calls if your carrier offers that feature. Not that this will NOT forward SMS/MMS messages.

Can two users share the same iMac simultaneously?

I have recently acquired several 2009 Mac "towers" (kind of new to Mac, here... have patience...) and I'm trying to stretch the 20 computers I was given so it can service 40 students. They all have 6gb of RAM, a couple of TB's of memory, fast processors and (from my understanding) can support two demanding users at one time. They also have two network ports.
Now, I'm not talking about using two monitors on one Mac, because I know how to do that. I'm trying to have two totally separate users, with two different accounts on a network, logging in totally independently and drawing off of a similar network. So, I'm basically trying to make it so we "split" one Mac so that two students can use one machine.
I thought about partitioning the drive so that I can have two parallel installations of iOS, running independently of each other (not sure if that's possible) but then I wouldn't know how to connect the machine to the internet. I know it has two different network ports but I'm not sure how to make them operate independently. The students need to have their own login and should not be able to mess with the other student's items.
I appreciate any and all tips or help.
Thanks again!

You can create as many individual user accounts on a Mac as you like. Then, any one or more of those users can remotely log in from another Mac and use that Mac as their own, simultaneously. Each account will remain separate from all others.
However, since each user needs to have a Mac to do that, I'm not sure how you could effectively double the number of users as you describe.

Two phones sharing the same apple Id. If I delete a photo from photo steam will it delete it from photo stream ?

I recently bought a iPhone 5. I keep the old iPhone for my son to play games on over wifi. I signed out of my apple I'd but not my iCloud because it says if I turn it off the photos will be deleted. I do not want to lose the photos on either phone. I was wondering if it delete the iCloud account on the old phone will the photos on the old phone still be on there.
