Can I move my daughter off my account by creating a new one for her and have all her apps/data/music/etc. move to her new account?

I want to split off my daughter from my apple account and set up her own.  Once she has her own account she would like to have her apps/data/music, etc. on her iPhone and iPad under the new account as it was under mine.  Can I set her up a separate account and then move her apps/data/music, etc., to her new account?  If so how do we do this and what are the dangers/pifalls of doing this (if any)?

You can migrate her to a separate iCoud account if you want, but existing purchased media (apps, music, etc.) will still be tied to the existing ID.  Purchased media is permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them.
If you want to move her to a separate iCloud account, you can do that and still continue to share the same ID for iTunes purchases.  The ID you use for iTunes does not have to be the same as the one you use for iCloud.  To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos she wants to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If she is syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to her so she can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in her new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; your devices will not be effected by this), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your her account and choose Merge to upload the data.
Once you are both on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.

  • Laptop stolen. Is there a way to move all of my data (Music, etc) to my desktop so I can set my phone up to sync from there?

    Topic basically says it all. My laptop (which had music on it from as far back as 1998) got stolen so I need to shift over to using my desktop to sync mIphone. I'd like to salvage as much data as I can instead of just throwing it away. I tried using Touchcopy but that didn't copy any of my data for some reason. Can anyone help out?
    Thanks!

    Restore your music and other data from the most recent backup of your laptop. You backed up on a regular basis, right?
    The iPhone is not a backup device. It was never designed or intended to be used to transfer anything other than media purchased in the iTunes store from the phone to a computer.  If utilities like touchcopy don't work for you, you may be out of luck.

  • If I have a list of Vimeo videos on a webpage, how can I use just one video frame and have all videos play in that one frame?

    I am creating a page with a list of Vimeo video links. I want to have only one video frame on the page. So no matter which video link a user clicks on, the chosen video needs to play in that one video frame on the page. How do I do this in Muse?
    Thanks.

    You can use composition widget for this. Insert the video details in trigger container and then insert that corresponding vimeo video widget in that specific target container. So It would work like, users will click on different video buttons but the actual video will play on same frame which is actually a target container of composition.
    The ID that we use for vimeo widget cannot be used for different videos on same time , because every video shares its own ID and url. But you can surely try the above.
    Thanks,

  • HT1918 can i have 2 account ids on one account, one for me and one for my daughter so we can facetime together?

    I just got an iPod touch for my 7 yr old daughter and i would like to set her up on my account so that we facetime together.  However, it appears she needs her own email address and iTunes account, which of course is not practical for a 7 yr old.  Is there a way i can create an facetime id for her on my account?

    (I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!)   I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.

  • HT1420 I can't deauthorise my daughter's last computer from iTunes because it has crashed. We have three computers in the house but I can't authorise my new MacbookPro for iTunes or homesharing. So I can't even get my music from my old Macbook into my new

    I can't deauthorise my daughter's last computer from iTunes because it has crashed. We have three computers in the house but I can't authorise my new MacbookPro for iTunes or homesharing because it says I have 5 computers authorised (I don't). I can't even get my music from the iTunes library on my old Macbook onto my new one, because it won't let me sync my iPhone 5 with my old Macbook, as I can't update the iTunes software. So I have a new MacbookPro and a new iPhone 5 and I can't get any of my music on either of them. I feel singularly depressed.

    As you have more than 1 computer authorised then you should be able to log into your account on your computer's iTunes (Store > View My Account) and 'deauthorise all' (which you can do once every 12 months) and you can then authorise/reauthorise the computers that you still have and need : authorising and deauthorising.

  • How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • Our daughter just got an iPad Mini and I set it up for her, but I originally set it up under my apple id in order to create an apple id for her.  Is there any way for me to switch it to her account as the main user?

    Our daughter just got an iPad mini and I originally set it up under my Apple ID in order to create an Apple ID for her (she's under 13 so I set up iCloud family)... is there any way to switch the main user to her so that she can use iMessage and such under her own account?  When she uses iMessage it's my account.  I can't find a solution anywhere.  Thank you!!

    Hi Maudluna,
    I understand you would like to sign out your Apple ID from an iPad. You can do this easily by following the steps in the article below. I have also linked to an article about Family Sharing which can help you create and manage multiple accounts:
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store - Apple Support
    Start or join a family group using Family Sharing - Apple Support
    Family Sharing makes it easy for up to six people in your family to share each other’s iTunes, iBooks, and App Store purchases without sharing accounts. Pay for family purchases with the same credit card and approve kids’ spending right from a parent’s device. And share photos, a family calendar, and more to help keep everyone connected.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • If I help out a friend & download a free app (through my iTunes account) on their new iPod Touch, will their device automatically be added to my itunes device list (and they can see all my contacts, pix, music etc)?

    If I help out a friend & download a free app (through my iTunes account) on their new iPod Touch, will their device automatically be added to my itunes device list (and they can see all my contacts, pix, music etc)?

    Just wondering, what context is this in?
    First up, is your iTunes account part of an iCloud account?
    Secondly, if it's a free app, why don't they just download it? If they are having trouble finding it on the App Store, but you can find it easily, you can share the link for it via email with them, and if they view that email on their iPod they can just tap the link and it will open the App Store to that App for them, so they can download it themselves.
    If you were to go to the Store settings pane and sign in with your iTunes account, that should only provide the possibility for download items from your iTunes account, such as purchased apps, music and movies. However, if you signed in, downloaded the app, and then went back and signed out of the account again, there shouldn't be any access apart from the app you downloaded. This is provided you sign in using the Store section of the Settings app, not the iCloud section.
    One problem they will have if you download this in your account instead of theirs, in order to download updates for that app, they will need you to enter your iTunes password to download the updates. Doing that doesn't give them access to anythign to do with your account other than that update, but they will be unable to receive updates for it without your password. They would also likely be unable to sync the app onto their computer, as their computer would not be Authorised with your iTunes account.
    If you can answer some of the questions I've asked, I may be able to suggest alternate ways for you get them the app on their device.
    Hope this all helps a bit

  • How can I have one "family" Apple ID and two icloud accounts one for me and one for the wife?

    MacVirgin!Just got new Air and iMac (iphones on the way). How can I have one Apple ID but two iCloud accounts (one for me and one for my wife)? I have set up one iCloud account and am attempting to share contacts between iMac, iCloud and Air, however iMac and iCloud are not in sync? I must be missing something very simple.

    ok. I set up the imac and Air with one user account. this was used to activae iCloud on both machines and I have now se up one iCloud account and managed to share calander and contacts between the two. Ultimately both me and my wife will have an iphone and we wish to share calenders and contacts. We both also use the imac and air on one user account. It looks like I need to set another user account then activate iCloud in my wifes Apple ID

  • How can I sync my iPad with a new laptop (same itunes account) and not lose all my app data, i.e. games data stored on the ipad, not the app itself?

    I want to sync my iPad with a new laptop, so I can get rid of the old computer.  I have already downloaded all the itunes content on the new laptop, but when i go to sync, it tells me that itunes will erase and copy all the apps from the new library.  The 2 computers are on the same account, so is there a way to copy the apps (including app data) onto the new laptop, instead of vice versa?
