Can I have 2 different apple ids on I pad?

I have had an Ipad for a while now and have recently upgaded my phone from a sony to an iphone 5c. The apple id on both devices are the same. Can I open another apple id so my husband and I can facetime each other?

Yes you can. But if you share and ID for purchases, just keep using that same ID. Do not use the new ID for purchases. Purchases are always tied to the ID. That was used to make the purchases and cannot be transferred to another ID.
However, you can set up FaceTime to use email addresses and you don't need to use another Apple if you don't want to set another one up.
Take a look at this.

    Hey does anybody know how to set up 2 apple ID on mac imessages? Because i have 2 different iphones and i would like to send imessages fron both accounts on my mac...

    Associate your mobile numbers with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
    Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
    Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
    and on the iPhone:
    Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
    Then, on the phone, tap
    Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
    Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions.

  • We've had our MBP for a year, set up with my Apple ID. Got an iPad recently and set up with another Apple ID. Would now like to sync the two and set up iCloud/PhotoStream. How to do since have two different Apple IDs?

    We've had our MBP for a year, set up with my Apple ID. Got an iPad recently and set up with husband's Apple ID. Would now like to sync the two and set up iCloud/PhotoStream between the two. How to do since have two different Apple IDs? Thanks!

    Just out of curiosity, why did you elect to use a different id?.  That seems to always make things difficult.  If you have not had the pad for long, or have not bought a lot of stuff Nader the new id, you might want to think about erasing all content, turn off find my phone, wiping the pad and starting over.
    You can sync 2 different ids ( at least move pictures, books and music back and forth) if you are syncing through I tunes on your computer, but I don't think you can cross feed I cloud streams.

    How can i use 2 different apple ids for imessage and facetime on 1 ipad?

    Do you mean can you use one Apple ID for FaceTime and one for iMessage? You should be able to. Or, do you mean, can you log into iMessage (or FaceTime) with two Apple IDs at once? No.

  • I have 2 different Apple IDs. I want to change the Apple ID on my iPhone 4 to match the one on my iMac

    I have 2 Different Apple IDs. How do I change the ID on my iPhone 4 to match the ID on my iMac ?

    Do you mean your itunes id, icloud id or another id.
    You should be able to use your itunes id (settings, store, sign in) on both devices wiothout any issues.
    The only issue you would have if you want to use 2 different icloud id's, one on your pc and one on your phone and still sync via itunes.
    If your wanting to merge your apple id's this may not be possible, definately not possible if they are itunes id's

Pls suggest
    Thanks
    Ravi

    Yes, you can certainly create a new Apple ID at appleid.apple.com (which will have to be associated with a different email address from your current ID) and then change the various settings and applications on one of your iPhones to use this new ID.

  • How can I sync my documents on my devices if I have two different Apple IDs

    I would like to be able to sync my Pages documents on all my devices.  However, one of my devices uses a different Apple ID (my work one).  Is there any way to get Pages to sync the documents created with the first ID onto the device with the second ID, or vice versa?
    Thanks.

    No, they have to be using the same iCloud account (ID) in order to use iCloud to sync them across your devices.

  • How can I include two different apple ids in family sharing?

    I originally set up my iTunes App Store using a secondary ID, and set up my App Store account somewhat later using my primary Apple ID. I've now set up family sharing with my wife and son, using my iTunes ID as the organizer. I'd like to include my App Store account within the family group but when I try to add my primary ID I get an error message saying "You cannot send an invitation to your own account." Is there any way of getting my App Store account included in my Family Sharing?
    I realize that it may have been stupid to set these two accounts up with different Apple ID's in the first place, but when I was setting them up Apple's explanations of how the whole ID and billing system were going to work were almost non-existant. So it was not that I did anything that was clearly out of bounds at the time, and it seems like there should be some way of setting things straight now.

    Here's some additional clarification. By "primary ID" I'm referring to the one I use for my mac.com email account. The secondary ID is one that I set up for the iTunes App Store when it started, and I didn't see any need to link it to my mac.com email. Then later, when the Mac App Store got started, I first logged into that using the primary ID without thinking about the connections between the two stores, about which Apple provided no information at that time.
    When I set up the family sharing group I used the secondary ID as the organizer, because I was setting it up primarily for iOS use. So that's the id that I have to invite from, and the id I have to send the invitation to is the primary one. I don't think I could set up a second family share group because Apple appears to recognize both IDs as belonging to me, i.e., to the same real name.

  • Can I have 2 different Apple accounts & sync Apps to one iPad?

    I have a US Apple Account that I use with iTunes.  Everything from iTunes on my MacBook Pro syncs with my iPad 3.  So I have some 200 programs via my USA Apple Account and they are on the Mac and on the iPad.  (If I download and App from the iPad it then syncs-over to the Mac; and vice versa).
    OK but now I would like to download a free app that is only available on another (Belgian) iTunes store.  If I set-up a Belgian account (with credit card etc) and then download this single iPad App -- will it go into my iTunes on my Mac and then sync with my iPad?
    I don't want to try this until I am 100% certain it won't mess-up my iPad / Mac / iTunes---
    Thanks for any comments.
    Best regards,

  • Can I use two different apple IDs on my iPad, one from the US and one from France? I have tried creating different logins but I received a notice that said if I used the french store that I would not be able to login into my other account for 90 days??

    I am trying to use both a french and US account so that I can utilize different apps from each store.  Is this possible, and if so am I able to go back and forth by loging in and out?

    You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country...

  • Can I use two different Apple IDs on one device for music?, Can I use two different Apple IDs on one device for music?

    I have a band's album but they are relasing a deluxe album on presale but only for UK.
    I have a pen pal who could send me a UK iTunes card since those are region locked but if I make another Apple ID in the "UK," could I still download it (after switching iTunes store region) on my iPod with my USA songs?
    Sorry if my explination was a little confusing, if you have any questions you can ask me in the comments.

    This would be a violation of the terms of use of the itunes store and could result in the loss of your account.
    You cannot use the U.K. itunes store unless you are in the U.K
