Can I have 2 iphones on the same Apple ID?

SO I just got a new iPhone and since I had a Shuffle I had been using my wife's AppleID for Itunes. I used her ID on my iPhone so I could get my music. Was this a mistake? It appears we may have issues with iCloud, not to mention there are a couple apps that cannot tell our phones apart. Any advice?

yes they can, here is some good advice:

  • HT1766 can you have multiple iPhones in the same iTunes account without overwriting each phones content?

    Can you have multiple iPhones in the same iTunes account without overwriting each phones content?

    Hi sandexpress,
    As Ocean20 indicates, you want to make sure that you have automatic syncing turned off. In iTunes Preferences under Devices, make sure you have "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" checked. Then connect each iPhone, and make sure that "Manually Manage Music and Videos" is checked on the Info page for each of them. Then go into each page for each device, and select what you want to sync to that particular device. (you would do this one device at a time - complete the steps for one of the phones, then connect the next one and do the same thing).
    With this kind of setup, you can modify what will sync at any given time for a particular device once you have connected it to iTunes, but before you click on the Sync button at the bottom of the screen. If you want to change some sync options on a particular device, you would just go into the page you wanted to change (Music, Photos, Apps, etc.), make your changes, and then Sync.
    If you do not have any changes, you can just hook up the phone and click on Sync.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,

  • Can I have 2 iPhones with the same number??

    Can I have 2 iPhones with the same number??
    I have a fairly new 5S iPhone. I would like to add a "iPhone 6" when available. Can I get it WITH THE SAME PHONE # ?

    Dual NAM is a different animal - that means having tow phone numbers on the same phone.  That's not allowed any longer, true.
    The OP is asking about having the same number on two devices - and Elector gave a solution.  Just move the SIM from phone to phone, depending on which one you want to use at any given time.  You cannot use the same number on two devices simultaneously.

  • HT5622 We have two iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself

    My son and I both have iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself from finding out what he is up to during Freshers week!

    You have to use a different Apple ID for your son.

  • Can I set 2 iphones with the same Apple acount

    Can I set 2 different iPhones with the same Apple account?

    Yes, but give them different names. You can associate up to 10 devices with the same Apple ID.
    Manage your associated devices in iTunes - Apple Support

  • HT201493 I have 2 iphones on the same apple id/itunes account, how do I give them different IDs?

    I have 2 iphones (mine & my wife's) on the same apple id/itunes account, how do I give them different IDs?

    I am having the same issue.
    There is no possible way Apple didn't think this the whole way thru!
    Why in the world would I want to create an new Apple ID for everyone in my family & over complicate things?!?  "Face Time" and "Messages" can tie several devices to on Apple ID driven by contact email or phone number.  I am hard pressed to believe that Find my Friends can't be set up in a similar format.
    Please help because this is frustrating me to the point of smashing an iPhone or 2!!

  • I have to iphones with the same apple id so when we loaded icloud and deleted contacts of one it deleted of both is any way to get those contacts back

    how do i get deleted contacts back ? I just added icloud to two phones with the same apple id

    You may have to restore to your latest sync. That's my only solution to your problem. If this didn't help, then I suggest you to visit the closest Apple store and get Genius for help.

  • Can I have two iPhones on the same iTunes account under the new apple terms?

    I have two iPhones (4 & 3GS). Is it possible to have them using the one iTunes account or do they have to have separate accounts? I had heard that there may be a change in the apple terms so that you cannot do this, but not sure if it's true?

    You can have as many iPhone and other iDevices as you want associated with your iTunes account.

  • Can i have multiple iphones with the same phone number?

    If I upgrade to iPhone6 can I: a) keep my 4s operational with the same phone number; or b) must I get a new number for one of the two?

    I don't believe your cellular provider will provision 2 SIM cards with the same number. You can forward calls, if your carrier supports it, from one phone to the other depending on which one you have with you.

  • HT5622 I have two iPhones using the same Apple ID. I want to change the ID on one of the phones without changing the other. Can it be done without affecting the other devices that use the ID.

    How can I change the Apple ID on one phone but the other. Right now they both use the same ID.

    Sure.
    For the iTunes/App store...Settings>iTunes/App Store...tap the ID shown, sign out...now, sign back in with the ID you want to use. Be aware, any apps obtained with the old ID can only be updated using that ID, as all apps are forever tied to the ID used to obtain them.
    Fir iCloud: Settings>iCloud...turn everything off, including Find My Phone. For Contacts/Calendars, you'll be prompted to keep the data on the phone or delete it...your choice. Then, scroll down, Delete Account. Now, set everything back up using the new ID.
    This won't affect any data stored at iCloud.com, or any other devices.
