HT1386 Can I delete an Apple ID from my iPhone and use another one instead?
I have used a family member's Apple ID and now I have my own and would like to sync my iPhone with my new ID. Can I do that and keep the apps I have already downloaded? They are all free apps but I can get them again if needed. I just need to know how to get the new ID on my phone.
Thanks!You will keep the Apps you have, but you will not be able to update them unless you sign back into that Apple ID.
Go into Settings > Store, at the bottom select your Apple ID, sign out, and sign in with the new one. -
could you please get back to me as soon as possible , there is an update I have been anticipating for a about two months now and it is coming very soon.
This is a user to user forum; there is no one from Apple here to get back to you. Apps and music are forever associated with the Apple ID account they were purchased with. There is no way to transfer them to a different account. That is why Apple lets you change the email address associated with your account without having to get a new account. If you didn't do this, but instead got a completely new account, you are out of luck. You can still go back to the old account and just get a new email address for it.

I have one apple id on my iPad and a second apple id on my iPhone and laptop. I want to use one apple id for everything. I tried wiping my iPad and synching it with my laptop. The old apple id still remains on my iPad. I can't get rid of it. Help.
On the iPad open Settings/iCloud and delete the account using the button at the bottom. Once deleted log in using the other account. For iTunes Stores use Settings/iTunes & Apps Stores, tapp on the Apple ID at the top then sign out. Once done sign in using the other account. Once you are happy with the changes plug your iPad into your computer to update the backup.

I created a new apple id for my iphone and ipad which work great and allow me to access Icloud. on my macbook air I can't get it to use my new apple id for icloud. It keeps going back to my old apple id and doesn't afford me to alter it. I use system preferences-icloud and it just wants to verify the old apple id but doesn't afford me the opportunity to delete teh account or edit it like the iphone5 and ipad. Help?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You need to use the sign out option on the left side. -
I used the same apple id for my iphone and my husbands now all our contacts and such are together. How do I undo this? Do i create him a different icloud account?
Yes, start with deleting your account on his device:
(Settings > iCloud or Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Your Account)
In the next step, create a new account on his device:
(Settings > iCloud or Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Your Account) -
My sister used my apple id on her iphone and now her number is attached to my facetime and i message. How do i delete this as i am getting al her messages
Thanks - but it is not that simple. the sim cards are in the right phones. my phone recieves calls most of the time, but if it not available then my wife's phone picks it up. we have turned off blue tooth and hot spots and turned phones on and off and this seems to temporarially solve the issue, but then it reoccurs. it did not happen immediately after her sim card was in my phone - it is more recent. we do not have call divert on. it is just odd.

HT2731 Does using the same Apple ID on my iPhone and iPod touch use my phones data plan?
Does using the same Apple ID on my iPhone and iPod touch use my phones data plan?
If you are using the internet then it's eating away at your data plan, irrespective of your Apple ID.
Here's an article about data plans:

I got a new computer and haven't used iTunes in years. I have an iPod and want to put my music from it onto iTunes on the new computer. I don't remember my old iTunes account info but i have a new apple ID for my iphone and ipad. Is there a way to transfer songs from my iPod (old iPod video) onto the new iTunes on my new computer and use my new apple ID to sign into iTunes?

I am using the same Apple id for my iPhone and iPad! Does this cause a problem with apps?
I Was told I should use a whole different I'd with my iPad because if I have both my phone and iPad with the same Apple id it will cause conflict with the apps on each of them. Does this happen?
No. I've been using the same Apple ID on my iPhone and iPad for years without problems. If fact, if both devices are yours and you use both devices having the same Apple ID on each of them is preferable.

My iPhone is broken, but I have to turn off find my iPhone. So without a working iPhone I had to do it with my iPad. I have the same Apple ID on my iPhone and iPad, and I have turned off find my iPhone(iPad) on my iPad, but is it then turned off on my iPhone as well? And if it is not, what can i do to turn it off, now that i can't do it with the phone?
I do not think so, but the easiest way to find out is to try it.
edit: after rereading your post, there is not a way to try it with a broken phone. If the phone is broken, I think I would destroy it. Then it is a moot question.

HT5622 i cannot access my apple id within my iphone and ipad setting. not highlighted?
i cannot access my apple id within my iphone and ipad.i go to setting, then itunes and app store tab then my apple id seems to be greyed out.
to start i tryed to download a song from apple store and it is just pending saying waiting in the apple store download tab ????You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists. -
when trying to activate iCloud on iPhone and iPad I get "account not verified... check your email." Can't verify account on either device.
Can't verify device on website either.Welcome to the Apple Community.
Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you. -
If I add a new account user,can I sync my iPhone and iPad to that account without effecting the other user? I'm trying to sync my iPhone and iPad to a new account on a computer I am now sharing after my computer died.
Don't create a new iTunes account.
Just update everything with new info/change password/ security questions.
