I have two iPhones associated to the same Apple ID. Can I manage music

I now have two iPhones (4s & 5s) associated to the same Apple ID. I am
giving my wife the 4S.   
We like different music & apps from one another. Can I manage music & apps independently on each device even though they have the same Apple ID Association?
Thanks

Yes, but I highly recommend each have your own, separate AppleID and your own computer login to manage your own data separately.

    Yes, you stop using the same Apple ID under Settings > iCloud.

    If I have another iphone and restore with my Mac, what happen with the FindMyIphone if I have two iPhone's with the same backup or sync with the same computer?

    If you have more than one device on the same Apple ID, Find My iPhone will let you choose  the one to find.

    It sounds that you are running the same iCloud account with two phones.  I recommend you to create a different iCloud account and you should be all set.

  • Two iPhones linked to the same Apple ID

    Is there any way to have separate iMessage services for two iPhones linked to the same Apple ID? I share Apple ID with my wife for convenience of buying apps only once and sharing photo and music from one Mac. However, the my iMessages to other people seem to appear on my wife's iPhone.  The phone number is used as a Caller ID.

    Use separate Apple IDs for iMessage (Settings>Messages>Receive At>tap the Apple ID at the top, sign out, sign in with a different ID).  You can still keep the same ID for iCloud (if you want to share contacts, calendars, photostream, etc.) and for store purchases (in Settings>Store).

  • Currently I have two iPads connected to the same Apple ID and one connected to Game Center. I want to connect the second iPad to Game Center so that I do not lose my progress on apps like Clash of Clans.

    Currently I have two iPads connected to the same apple iPad. One is connected to game center(iPad air) one the other(iPad 2) is not connected to Game Center. How can I connect the iPad 2 Clash of Clan progress to game center when I already have another clash from iPad air connected?

    You cannot transfer content between two accounts. The sooner you make the conversion, the better. Just pick the new one and start using it(buying music etc).
    *A lot of people open new accounts when their email changes or they have a new email. You can just access your apple id account and change the primary email that you use to log in along with other details.

  • I have 2 iphones that share the same apple id but do not want them to share contacts and apps, how can I change this

    I have 2 iphones that share the same apple ID I do not want them to share contacts and apps how can I change this?

    You can use separate AppleIDs for iCloud, iMessage and iTunes - you just need to create unique AppleIDs for the iCloud accounts if syncing contacts that way (you will need an email address that is not already registered as an AppleID though to get another AppleID).
    Apps are a different matter in that purchases are tied to the AppleID used to log in to the store to make the purchase.  So you can create another AppleID for iTunes as well and use different ones on the different phones, but any apps you have already purchased with your existing AppleID are permanently tied to that AppleID.
    Really, unless you are sharing apps, content and such, there is no reason to use the same AppleID on each anyway.  So the simplest solution is to create new AppleID(s) for the second device.  If you need an email address to do that, just get a gmail account (or hotmail, yahoo or any other free email account).

  • How can I see My Photo Stream from two Macs associated with the same Apple ID?

    I have a MacBook Pro (my personal machine) and an iMac (our family computer).
    The iPhoto library housing all of our family photos lives on the iMac.
    The iPhoto library on my MacBook Pro is currently empty.
    I have an account on both machines.  I have associated the same Apple ID with both machines.
    When I launch iPhoto on my MacBook Pro and attempt to turn on photo sharing (so that I can see My Photo Stream, as well as other shared streams), iPhoto informs me that "iCloud Photos for xxx@xxx is being used with another library named 'iPhoto Library'."
    My iPhone, which is also affiliated with the same Apple ID, shows the streams just fine.
    What can I do to remedy this situation?  I'd like to be able to view my shared streams on my MacBook Pro, while leaving the actual massive photo library on the iMac.

    I found out about this issue when I created a new library with some photo's I wanted to sync to my iCloud account.  I found the following on the Fat Cat Software page and thought it might be helpful to others:
    Using Photo Stream with multiple libraries
    Starting in iPhoto 9.2, Apple introduced a new feature called Photo Stream, which lets you automatically transfer photos via their iCloud service between your iPhoto library and your other devices such as an iPhone, iPad, or another Mac. This feature works when you have multiple iPhoto libraries set up, but there are a couple things to be aware of.
    First, iPhoto will only allow Photo Stream to be active in one iPhoto library at any given time. If you've already enabled Photo Stream in one library, but then open a second library and enable Photo Stream there, this will cause Photo Stream to be turned off in the first library.
    Any photos downloaded by Photo Stream are actually stored in an entirely separate location from any of your iPhoto libraries. This means that, even if you do switch Photo Stream from one library to another, you will not need to go through redownloading all the photos you already have in Photo Stream back from the iCloud servers. So, switching Photo Stream from one library to another is a relatively inexpensive operation, so you can do it as often as needed without it being much of a hassle.

  • Upgraded to iOS8 and now two iPhones that use the same apple id are receiving the same calls

    I have two iPhone 5s, one for work and one for personal use. Since upgrading to iOS8 I am now receiving work calls on my personal phone as well as my work phone , so both phones are ringing at the same time. I'm looking to stop receiving work calls on my personal phone, any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Ashliegh

    I'm sorry, but it isn't a problem, it is a feature. While you may find it something you do not like, then you need to change the settings as I described earlier. This is part of how continuity works.
    Apple has never supported downgrading of iOS, so don't expect that to happen. If you have done what I said, the need to create and connect to another Wi-Fi network is not necessary. All you have to do is turn it off. Apple did not program anything wrong.

  • If you have two iphone 4s on the same Itunes account how can you keep seperate info on each phone i.e contacts and apps etx

    My wife and I have Iphone 4s phones, and the same itunes account on two laptops, when she started her phone for the first time all my contacts were deleted how can we have seperate details on each phone, or do we need seperate accounts

    Thanks for the help. Took a bit of time and I'll need her phone (when she's back) to get it all straight...I think! :-)

  • We have two iphone 4s on the same computer and after we did the ios6 upgrade the text messages are being sent to both phones. How do we stop this?

    My wife and I's iphone 4s' are both on the same computer.  When we did the new upgrade to ios6 it started sending text messages to both of us from each other.  For example I sent my wife a text "Hey" and then my phone received a message from Me "Hey."  Another example is that a friend sent my wife a text and both of us received it from that friend, but not in a group message. We both deleted our icloud account and the problem still happened.  Then we checked that we were both signed in to our own personal accounts for imessage and we were.  After turning off imessage the problem went away.  Any ideas on how to make imessage work without having it send messages to both of us?  

    I also have the same problem and changed the send & receive addresses . But it always seems to revert back to 2 addresses/numbers on the second , my wifes phone . Which isn't the best .

  • I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro.  My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook.  They are all associated with the same Apple ID.  How do I get all of my music on the laptop?

    I have an iMac, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro.  My full iTunes library is on the iMac and iPhone, but only a handful of songs are on my MacBook.  They are all associated with the same Apple ID.  When I try to sync, I get a warning message stating that I will lose songs on my phone which aren't on the laptop.  How transfer my music from my phone to the laptop?

    Hey kbert73
    I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

  • I set up "Find My Iphone App" using the same apple id and password on two iphones. Now the app only finds the phone that I did the setup on first. Do I need a different apple id and password on each phone for the app to run correctly?

    I setup two iphones on "Find My Iphone App" Using the same apple id on each phone. Now the app finds only the phone I setup first. Do I need to use two different apple ids? If your answer is yes then how do I errase the setup in the second phone and assign a new id?

    As TJBUSMC1973 states, and as I said earlier, the Find My iPhone app has nothing to do with your use of Find My iPhone. The app is just used if necessary to locate another iOS device from that particular iOS device. To see if both of your devices are being located in Find My iPhone, log into www.icloud.com and select Find My iPhone. Both of the devices should appear. If they do not, then go into whichever of the devices does not appear and make sure that Find My iPhone is activated. It has to be activated through iCloud, and for both to show on the same map, they both have to have the same iCloud ID.
