Can 2 people set up apple id with the same email address

My husband and I share the same email address can we set up our apple ids with the same email and different passwords?

No. You can share the same Apple ID for iTunes content, but for everything else...FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc., you really need separate Apple ID's & these iD's must be verifiable email addresses. If you don't set things up that way, you'll have a mess on your hands.

  • Two Apple ID with the same email address.

    Hello,
    I have 2 Apple ID's using the same email address.
    When I sign in with my Apple ID in the Apple Support Communities web he request me to "Choose your Apple Support Communities username.", So I write a user name and click continue - and this error message is shown: "account utilizing this email address already exists. Only one account per email address is allowed on Apple Support Communities."
    I know which Apple ID user using this email address but I can't change to different email address (this option in "Edit Profile" is impossible).
    What I can do?!

    This advice is not proper for the issue at hand.
    Your advise lets you reset the Apple ID not verify your current ID.
    In either case the recommended link does not work at this time - nor gives any response as to why you do not recieve the email they promise!!

  • How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

    How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

    Phone A = phone with information you want duplicated
    Phone B = phone that you want to copy from A
    Backup Phone A.
    Wipe Phone B using these instructions. What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Phone B should be on the 'Hello' screen. Do not swipe it. Launch iTunes. Plug in Phone B.
    When iTunes asks if you want to set up as new phone or restore from backup, choose restore from backup of Phone A.
    After this setup, any changes to one phone (i.e. adding a contact, downloading an app) will have to be manually duplicated on the second phone, if that is your desire). Making changes to one phone will not affect the other after setup.

  • I created my Apple ID in Ireland, but would now like to switch to a German Apple ID, keeping the same email address. How do I delete my old Irish Apple ID, so I can create a new German one with the same email?

    I created my Apple ID in Ireland, but would now like to switch to a German Apple ID, keeping the same email address. How do I delete my old Irish Apple ID, so I can create a new German one with the same email?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Click on your account name in the top right corner of the iTunes store in the iTunes application on your computer, enter your password and click the "view account" button. Navigate to the Apple ID summary where you have the option to "change country or region".
    In order to change your location, you will need a credit card registered to an address in the location you are trying to change to.
    You cannot change your location if you have credit on your account, if you are unable to spend your credit and leave a balance of zero, contact Apple, which you can do through iTunes Store Support.

  • Can two ipods with the same email address face time independantly?

    Can two ipods with the same email address face time independantly?

    Hey Bumblebee, To each other, no-- would be like trying to call yourself on the same phone. To different persons on other devices??? Not sure you'll have to try, I'm guessing if both are online you may well dial up on both, (once had the same address on the my computer and iPod, both would ring when called, this stopped when I changed the iPod's address). If you change one of the iPod's e-mail address you should be fine. You'll have to do a little experimenting. Hope this helps, Good luck. Cheers.

  • Can I have more than 1 susbcriber with the same email address?

    I have developed a BC secure zone in Muse as a members only area. This works fine. I have subscribed all the members and all is OK except that I find if I try to subscribe 2 members with the same email address (e.g. a married couple with a shared email address), the first subscription is overwritten by the second. Is there a solution or do I just live with it?

    Hi Neil,
    This is the default behavior of the system because email is the unique identifier. You can't have more than 1 subscriber with the same email address.

    Aish

  • I have changed settings on my email account with my provider, but in order to activate the address they instructed me to delete my account and add a new account with the same email address. Will this delete my all my email history? Any advise please?

    I have an OS X 10.6.8 and have had problems with my mail. I have changed my account settings with my mail provider, but they suggest I now delete my account and add a new account with the same email address. Will this delete my email history? Can anyone please advise?

    I have the same problem as the emails go to my iCloud account that I cannot access!!! I cannot answer the security questions as someone else must have set up my iCloud account. Nothing seems to work. It would be great if someone has some ideas as what can be done to recover the situation?

  • Send emails from a csv file (grouping records with the same email addresses)

    Writing a script to send emails from a csv which contains record details and email addresses using the Send-Mailmessage cmdlet.
    That part is no trouble, however, the csv file contain records that can have the same email address.
    Is there a way/method I could send the records with the same email address once instead of sending individual email messages?
    Thanks
    Data in the csv file
    Record number, description, email
    1234, Test 1, [email protected]
    5678, Test 2, [email protected]
    1245, Test 3, [email protected]
    4578, Test 4, [email protected]
    $data = Import-csv c:\records.csv
    ForEach($address in $data)
    Send-mailmessage -To $address.emails -from [email protected] -subject "List of records" -Body $data -SmtpServer 192.168.1.1

    The following code does what you are looking for:
    $data = Import-csv c:\records.csv$mx = "192.168.1.1"
    $subject = "List of records"
    $from = "[email protected]"
    $data| Group-Object email|Select-Object Name, @{n='msg'; e={$_.Group| Select-Object -Property "record number", description|ConvertTo-Csv -notypeinformation|Out-String}}|
    ForEach-Object {Send-MailMessage -to $_.Name -Body $_.msg -SmtpServer $mx -Subject $subject -From $from}
    I also recommend no forcing everything into one line.  "One-liner" means "one pipeline" not putting all code on one unreadable line.
    Your code should look like this:
    $data|
    Group-Object email|
    Select-Object Name, @{
    n='msg'; e={
    $_.Group| Select-Object -Property "record number", description|
    ConvertTo-Csv -notypeinformation|Out-String
    }|
    ForEach-Object {
    Send-MailMessage -to $_.Name -Body $_.msg -SmtpServer $mx -Subject $subject -From $from
    Now we can see the code and see that you are still unnecessarily converting back and forth.
    To get the group look at how I did it.
    $body=$_.Group | Format-Table |Out-String
    Isn't that much easier?
    Once you master the pipeline these things will become second nature.  In PowerShell it is not necessary to write lots of code most of the time.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • My husband and I share the same email address. Is there someway to have different AppleIDs with the same email address?

    My husband and I share the same email address at home. Is there some way creating an Apple ID using the same email address? We have multiple apple devices at home (2x iphone4, imac, mini ipad, and notebook) and want our emails from that one address to come through on the different devices.

    No, you cannot have the same primary email address used for two separate Apple IDs.
    However, you can sign into the same email address on your separate devices for the purposes of receiving mail.  Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Add Account.
    Apple IDs are for using Apple services, like the App Store, iTunes, etc.
    Email addresses (while used as the NAME of an Apple ID), are separate entities.

  • Two Contacts with the Same Email Address

    We would need to have two Mail Contacts created for one external email address. In our case of a basic school we would need to share parent's email addresses for all teachers - Office 365 users. It is not uncommon that a school is attended by siblings -
    one is older, one is younger. We tried to create an Exchange directory containing parent's email addressed - a contact is named based on a pupil's name, but in case a contact was created for a younger sibling and we try to create a contact for an older sibling,
    we receive an error:
    The proxy address "SMTP:[email protected]" is already being used by the proxy addresses or LegacyExchangeDN of "Younger Sibling". Please choose another proxy address.
    How to overcome this and have the same address for both siblings in All Contacts directory. 
     

    Hi,
    We can’t create two contacts with the same external email address in Exchange. Personal suggestion, we can consider the following settings as a workaround:
    Option1:
    We can name the contact as “SMTP:[email protected]”. And only use one contact for two students.
    Option2:
    a. Create the contact 1 for pupil 1 with “SMTP:[email protected]”, external email address:
    [email protected]
    b. For pupil 2, we can create the contact 2 as “SMTP:[email protected]” with a new created email address
    [email protected] (please make sure the auto-forward feature is supported in this selected mail server).
    c. Configure the auto-forward for [email protected] to [email protected]
    Then we the teacher send messages to contact 2, the message can be send to
    [email protected] and forward to [email protected]
    Additionally, why not using the same contact for two pupils, is there any hard needs that we have to match one contact to one pupil?
