Backing a new account

i use a western digital Drive and super duper software to make the transfers.I set it up so that I have two partitions- one for all my files which acts like a clone and into which i intend making regular "smart backups", the other contains my User Files and also archived material which i have removed from my computer hard disk in order to make room (these particular files are all video ones).
I am little confused because Super duper *user notes* tell me that files are not bootable from here as its does not contain any operating system files and yet I can play my videos from there.Anyway be that as it may i am now wondering how i should set up Super duper for any further back ups into User files without losing any data that doesnt happen to be on my computer disk? Or would it be better to just click and drag from All files back up? I refer , of course, to files i may wish to archive in future.
Finally i set up another account for my wife and the same two partitions appear there.Now i am wondering what exactly happens ?Obviously there are no files in her account.If I did a back up from there would it affect my files and vice versa?Or would they back up independently of each other?Thank you

I created a new apple id account so that I didnt have to share my icloud with my brother, if i plug my phone into my computer onto my new account and sync it, then delete my old icloud from my phone will my new icloud be backed up and have all my pics ect

I've just created this new apple ID account and i need to know that if i plug my phone into my computer and sync my phone onto my new account, then delete my old icloud and apple account from my phone will my things be backed up onto my new icloud? such as my pictures notes contacts music ect... ?

Providing your Apple ID is not a .me or a .Mac address, you can change it with Apple and continue to use your account.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
Once who have done this you can then correct it on your mobile device.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
If however, your Apple ID was a .me or a .Mac address, then you will need to create a new account, follow the instructions above for deleting your account on your mobile device and then tap the "create Apple ID" button to create a new account.

I've just created a new account but when I now try to download an app it defaults back to my previous address I had to close?

II've just created a new apple Id & account but when I try to download an app the box that appears on your I pad defaults back to my old apple id to which I had to close down as this was a mail address that got hacked.
how do I change this to show my new account? I presumed that once new id had been created then this should of updated automatically.

Good luck. It took me weeks to fix this when I had to do it. Your old ID branches out in lots of places. You may have to delete app and get them again, at least that is what Apple told me. Plus, all of your settings on your iPad that required any ID, will have to be changed. My old ID kept showing up in different places for weeks. Changing it on Apple.com is just the beginning.

Had an itunes account I shared with family. opened a separate account when I got a new phone but can't transfer my music library. How do I delete new account and go back to original shared account?

I had an itunes account I shared with my family. I opened a separate account when I got a new phone but cant't transfer my library of music. I want to cancel new account and go back to original shared account. How do I do this?

Content is permanently tied to the account it is acquired with.
Apple ID's cannot be deleted.
Simply sign out of the undesired account and stop using it. Sign in with the desired account.

It seems at some point, my husband and I merged accounts. And whenever I received a message, his phone was notified as well. We turned off icloud, then I turned it back on with my new account info. Can I receive my old contacts on my new apple id?

I am out all of my contacts, trying to figure out a way to send them to my new apple id so I don't have to retype everything back into the phone. Any advice is appreciated!

You and your husband can share a store account and still have seperate iCloud accounts for your contacts, bookmarks and stuff like that. Click here for instructions to make an apple account without entering a credit card. Make sure you use a different email address for each apple account.
Set up your iPhone/iPad whatever using the new account for iCloud. Then go into settings/store and sign in with your purchasing account, you may need to sign out of the other account. To the best of my knowledge, your household is allowed to share purchased legally, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Once you each have your own devices set to your own accounts you can set them to backup to that account and it will keep all your contacts seperate.

I have an iPhone and iPad on the same account. I gave my iPad to my daughter. Can I set up a new account for my iPhone only so I can back up photos, etc, in privacy?

If you set up a new account on your iPhone you won't have access to all the data associated with the prior Apple ID.

Lost all email when I deleted email accounts and created new accounts in Thunderbird, this is due to complications changing password. How do I get mail back?

First, I did not do a backup, did not think I needed one, my bad. I recently had to change my passwords in the ISP Server and of course in Thunderbird. There were complications, none of my email clients, both Outlook and Thunderbird on multiple computers, would authenticate the new passwords, in working around them I changed to imap from pop3, then later tried to change back to pop3, did not want to work, so, I deleted all of the accounts and recreated them back under pop3, in that process I seem to have lost all of my mail folders. Is there a way to get them back? I have deleted and recreated accounts before and not had this problem. Thanks in advance for any help.

Your messages might still be there in your Thunderbird profile folder.
You could create a new account and then point to the folder that already exists.

- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
You need to reactivate your first account.
Why do I see the message "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons” when I enter my password?
This message means that someone was unable to sign in to this account multiple times. The Apple ID system will disable the account to prevent unauthorized people from gaining access to your information. You'll need to follow the instructions on My Apple ID to reset your password.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to backup, not good, then you can redownload some purchases in some countries.
