Can I have two Iphones on same iCloud account?
I use two separate Iphones on my Itunes account for easy access. However, I would like to activate Icloud on both phones but I'm guessing each phone would need a separate acount otherwise they would just sync the same info (calanders,contacts,etc.) correct?
But could I at least use the Find My Iphone app on the second Iphone if I just leave all the other Icloud options off? If I activate Find My Iphone on the second phone, will it just show two Iphones in the menu when I search for the Iphone on my Mac, or do I need to set up a second Icloud account for the second phone?
Thanks,
Ehren

That will work just fine.

Can I have two iPhones on one iCloud account?
I would like to put my wifes iphone on my icloud account so in the end we will have 2 iphones and one macbook on the account is that possible?
You can but it's usually not recommended. If you do any synced data will be merged to the same iCloud account. For example if you both sync your contacts and calendars with the same iCloud account you will see each others contacts and calendar events on your phones. Also, you can share an Apple ID (account) for iTunes store purchasing and still have separate iCloud accounts.

HT204053 can I have two iphones on one icloud account?
can i use 1 icloud account for two iphones?
sure, as long as you don't mind sharing information - like contacts calendars and some other stuff. There is no limit as far as I know to amount of Apple devices used with same icloud account.

I have one itunes account with mulitple libraries for each device (one iphone, 4 ipods). The one iphone is connected via the cloud. everytime a new song or app is added to the account it is placed in all of the libraries. I want to add another iphone to the acccount when I tried it replaced the contacts with the contacts on the iphone already on the account. How do I prevent that from happening and can I have two iphones on the same account and use the cloud on both
thanksiTunes will remember the settings for each device after you set them up for the first time.

Two iPhones using same iCloud account with separate contact lists?
Our family has two iPhones and we each use different contact lists. If we use the same Apple Id is there a way to separate the contact lists in iCloud or do we need separate account (i.e Apple Id's)?
I have my iphone and ipad on Apple icloud services and it finds both units. I think you have to have different account names set up in order to use it. Do you have itunes? if so you can add the device from there. For instructions go to http://www.apple.com check under support, then forums to see if that has been posted.
Good Luck -
Can i have two iphones on one itunes account
I have an iphone for personal and a new one for work. I want to have all the same information on both phones!! is th possibel?, and how do i do it?
Yes, you can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups.

How to manage two iphones on same icloud account
I recently purchased additional storage on icloud (200gigs) and my wife and I are both using the same account under my name. Now my photos, notes and reminders etc. are showing up on her phone. Is there any way to change the settings so that her backed up data stays on her phone and mine stays on mine only?
If you are syncing Contacts, Notes and Reminders, no. That is an account (AppleID) specific function. Backups, however, are another matter and would remain separate since they are device specific.

Can I have two Iphones connected to one icloud account and if so, how do I change the icloud user name on the phone
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes you can use one iCloud account between multiple devices.
What do you mean 'change the iCloud user name'. -

I have two iPhones on my iTunes account. How can I find out what apps go to which phone?
I don't believe that there is a way to do that. I would sugest using automatic downloads to keep your apps synced across both phones. You might also want to note that just about any app you have ever download will be available for free download via icloud.
Wish I could be more help. -

Welcome to the Apple Community Joe.
There is nothing stopping you doing so, but you won't be able to sync anything between them. -

If you are using two iPhones on the same Apple Account by using the same Apple ID you can remove one by following the following:
Choose Settings > Store and tap Sign out
The apps and such should remain. If you want to clear all of that you can do the following:
The Erase all Content and Settings feature under Settings/General/Reset will remove your content and settings.

Hi. We have two iphones and one Itunes account. How do back up each one without getting the others contacts and without syncing each phone to each other?
Welcome to the Apple community.
Ideally you should each have your own iCloud account, providing you with your own contacts, calendars etc, not doing so will result in exactly what you have experienced. The contacts have likely been lost due to the options you have chosen at the login stage on each device.
Unless you have the missing contacts in a backup file, they won't be recoverable unfortunately. You can add them manually to the contracts that already exist and continue to share the iCloud account if you wish, but I suggest that you each have your own iCloud account.
Note, you can each have your own iCloud account, but continue to share an iTunes account for purchases of apps, books, music, TV shows etc etc. -
Can I have multiple devices on one iCloud account
can I have multiple devices on one iCloud account? Like a iPad and Mac Book Pro
If so how can I do this?Sure. That is what iCloud is meant for, so you can keep your devices synced.
When you set up iCloud on the devices, use the same Apple ID on all devices, then the iCloud account will be the same.
