I merged my Apple ID accounts on my iPhone and iPod...how can I change the iPhone Apple ID account so that the iPod and iPhone has there own?

I think I understand what you mean. You were asked if you wanted to merge the contacts with your iCloud account. Contacts take up very little room and are probably not the reason that your iCloud is full. If you're now backing up two devices to iCloud rather than one, that will indeed take up more room.
You cannot undo the contact merge. You can go to Settings>iCloud on either device and see what categories of stuff you're backing up and make selections. You can also purchase more iCloud space there.

  • I don't remember my old Apple ID and I closed my email account that I was using for my old Apple ID. Now, how can I change my icloud id on my Ipad. The old icloud id is still on my Ipad.

    ChrisJ4203,
    Thank you for the help.  Every app on my phone was downloaded using my old I-tunes ID.  I just hope that they will re-download under my new ID because I still can't change it on my phone.  In order to change to the new ID it says I have to sign out from the old ID and change to the new one.  My problem is that I don't remember my password to be able to sign out from my old ID.  Then the phone says it can change my password through e-mail and I  agree but I never get an e-mail at my old address or the new one.

  • I set up an apple ID with an invalid e-mail address, how can I change it because I can't retrieve the e-mail to complete the account process

    I set up an Apple ID with an invalid e-mail address, how can I change the e-mail address without completing the process of creating the ID cause I can't retrieve the e-mail to complete the process.

    Try changing the email address using https://appleid.apple.com/
    If you can't change it with that site, you'll have to create a new account.

  • 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).

    When trying to update my apps on my iphone my husband's Apple ID pops up. How can I change to my Apple ID?

    If you have apps purchased from more than one account that need updating you have top update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account. As the other replier said, you have to log into the account that purchased than app to update it.

    Hi GlendaGirl,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're unexpectedly seeing the incorrect Apple ID on your iPhone 5s. You can use these steps to sign out of iCloud on your iPhone 5s and sign in with the right Apple ID:
    iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
    If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account [Sign Out in iOS 8.] Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
    Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.

  • HT201342 how CAN I CHANGE MY "Alternate Apple ID"

    how CAN I CHANGE MY "Alternate Apple ID"?

    You are evidently both using the same iCloud account, so inevitably you share all the data. iCloud was never designed for mulpitple users. You can't separate [email protected] from [email protected] - they are effectively the same address.
    If you want to keep your email separate from your wife's you are going to have to open a completely separate iCloud account; however you won't be able to move your @icloud.com address to it, so it's a choice between changing your email address and putting up with the existing sharing.
    Changing your email address is a bit of a hassle as you have to email all your contacts and ask them to use the new one, but this happens quite a lot and most people are used to seeing this. You could also set up a Rule on your wife's iCloud account to forward anything addressed to [email protected] to your new address, so that you would still catch mail from people who hadn't updated and ask them to.
    (To set up a Rule go to http://icloud.com and on the Mail page click the cogwheel icon at bottom left: choose 'Rules'.)

  • My mother used to be the bill payer on my iTunes account so now every time I send an email from my iCloud account it sent with her name, how can I change the settings so emails are sent from myself?

    My mother used to be the bill payer on my iTunes account so now every time I send an email from my iCloud account it sent with her name, how can I change the settings so emails are sent from myself?
    I've changed the bill payer to myself but it stills says on emails that I sent that its from my mother.

    In order for the "From" field to show you options on the "from" addresses available, you must set them up in the Preferences > Accounts first.
    I can't show you a screen shot of the from field because I currently only have one account, so the from address used is the default. However, when I had more than one, then options will show up in your compose/reply window.
    You'd need to add an account here:

  • I have 2 ipods on same account( 2 different kids in household) how can I separate them into 2 different accounts?se

    I have 2 ipods on same account( 2 different kids in household) how can I separate them into 2 different accounts?

    There are actually a few methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
    Just to summarise what's in the link above:
    Method one is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries.
    Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. If you've had no success with this you can have a look through the guide on this page: Loading songs onto iPod automatically
    Another option when using a single library is to set one or both of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
    You can read about Windows user accounts here: Using Windows XP User Accounts

    My Apple Store lists prices in $ and not £ - how can I change this back to £?

    Are you referring to the AppStore application, or to the Apple Store web-site?  If the former, like Carolyn says; if the latter, then you need to go to http://www.apple.com/uk/
    However, if the former then you haven't set up your computer for the UK, go into System Preferences and configure your region.

  • How can I change email received by others from me via my IMac and MacBookPro being received as APPLE?ring as just Apple

    How can I change emails received by others from me on my IMac and MacBookPro appearing on their computers as 'APPLE' and not my name?

    Thanks - I did not realize that Homesharing can be specifically set to a photo destination like that!
    So, it would appear that I can either point it to iPhoto (and folders/ events within that) OR the default Pictures folder and subfolders of that OR any other specific folder (and subfolders of that) of my choice.  However, I cannot select BOTH the default Pictures folder (and some subfolder of that) AND a folder in iPhoto AND/ OR an event/ folder in iPhoto.  Is that a correct assumption?
    If so, the only way I see getting homesharing to get both set of pictures is to get all my picture folders (internal and external drive based) into iPhoto (without physically duplicating them) - and then pointing Homesharing to iPhoto, right?
    I think you have solved my issue - but I just want to be sure of that.
    Thanks a ton!
