Can I share the same apple ID with my sister but have different password?

Me and my sister have and iPod 4 and with the new ios 5 and with the new texting app me and my sister have our own friends to text and if she talk to her friend i get the text with her.

See if this helps. Each of you will need a unique email messaging address.  I do not know if you can first set up eachdevice withe the same ID and then add another emaill messaging address to one and then delete the ID form that iPod.

  • Can you use the same Apple ID with multiple iMac's?

    I am a teacher and I have multiple iMac's in my room and I need to be able to purchase apps one time and have them on all my computers.  Is this possible?  I know that I can do it with multiple iPad's but can I do with iMac's?

    Yes logon to each computers itunes and away you go.
    To redownload on each itunes got to the itunes store, select Purhased from the quick links section and navigate to what you want to redownload.
    If you want to do it for apps that run on the Macs not on the iPad you need to login to the Mac AppStore and login with the same apple id and download apps that work on macs

  • How can I use the same apple id on 2 iphones yet have the owner contact different?

    My husband and I both share apps, contacts, calendars, etc and use same apple id...We both own iPhone 5's. When we each set up our iphones, on setting in siri setting and mail, contacts, calendars setting we each put contact for our info... Well the problem is that if I change mine to my info it changes it to his, and same if he changes it to his name on his iphone it changes 'my info' on my iPhone's setting.... so when using siri or mail... we cant identify each phone.... So can we still use same apple id and have separate "my info" settings.....

    Short term solution, do this on both devices
    Settings > iCloud > Shut off anything you don't want shared
    Long term solution (actual solution)
    You need seperate Apple IDs for iCloud. iTunes and iCloud are not the same.
    Create a new Apple ID > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    On one of the devices go Settings > iCloud > Delete Account > Sign in with the new Apple ID
    This will seperate your Contacts, Calendars, Messages etc.
    You both can continue to use the same Apple ID for iTunes and share apps and music

  • HT5538 i have 3 apple products, apple ipad, iphone, and itouch. can we have the same apple id, and be able to have different facetime addresses?

    I am confused and a new user to apple products. We have slowly aquired, an ipod touch, for my daughter. Then I was gifted an iphone. I thought in order to be able to communicate via facetime, we would have different apple id's??? When I tried to change her apple id on her ipod touch, to her own, I think I really messed up, now I am unable to upload gift cards, and somehow it has switched back to my apple id? and not accepting my apple id password? My husband received an ipad, for Christmas, and he created his own apple id, which i am fine with, just having the problem with my daughters ipod touch not being able to upload the gift card, and also wondering if we need different apple id's and if that is my problem?
    Any help will be greatly appreciated:)

    Create Apple IDs for everyone individually and use that in Settings > Facetime, Settings > Messages, Settings > Game Center but keep the Apple ID used for app and content purchases in Settings > iTunes and App Stores

  • Can I have the same Apple ID on 3 devices and have different Game Centre accounts ?

    Sign into Game Center on the devices under a different Apple ID. If it is already signed into another account, I think you can go into settings and change it.

  • HT4759 can you use the same apple id for two phones on the cloud?

    can you use the same apple id for two phones on the same verizon account and if so can you keep there contacts etc. separate?

    If you want to keep your contacts and other data you sync with iCloud separate, you'll have to create separate iCloud accounts, which will require different IDs.  If you share the same iCloud account/ID on multiple devices, the synced data will be merged and will appear on all devices syncing with the shared account.
    You can still share the same ID for iTunes; it doesn't have to be the same as the one used for iCloud.

  • Myself and my partner had a iphones. Since the recent software update he now randomly receives texts from my contacts and also when im sending texts. Is this because we share the same apple id. This didnt happen before the software update.

    You can both share the same Apple ID for purchases but i suggest one of you use another email for the use of iMessage, Facetime etc.
    It is easy to do, the easiest way is to set up an iCloud email directly from your iPhone. Once set up one of you will use this for iCloud services but both still use the existing Apple ID to make purchases.

  • Can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  Yes, there is more to the story.

    I have an iMac, and iPhone.  I've had my Apple ID for a few years. 
    My wife got an iPhone 4S a few months back and the salesperson at Verizon set her Apple ID the same as mine, but gave her a different password.  I don't know if this was ok, but that is what happened.
    So, yesterday, we both upgraded to IOS6 and I had no problem logging in to my iPhone with my Apple ID.  When my wife went to log in, she was told that she was entering the wrong password. We entered the password over and over again and still was wrong.
    The question is... can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  (I have the feeling her iPhone is thinking that since it's my Apple ID, it wants my password.)
    If not, can I still set up a new Apple ID for her even through she's had the iPhone for a few months?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    You shold follow your feelings, its probably right most of the time.
    You can have 5 different devices hucked upp to one Apple ID. What I have done is that my wife and I have one Apple ID, when I bye a new app on my phone, She gets it to. Thats nice.
    You can allways set upp a new Apple ID for your wife.

  • HT201077 my daughter and I share the same apple id but can we have separate photo stream

    My daughter and I share the same apple ID for music and apps. Is there any way for us to have separate photo streams. We do not want to share photos.

    Hi
    I also have 2 iphones (mine and my wifes), all on ONE iTunes ID and ONE iCloud ID.
    I want to backup our photos only automatically to my Windowns 7 PC using Photostream & iCloud from both devices BUT I dont want her photos on my phone and vice versa.
    I too would like to keep 1 iTunes account and because I dont  want her photos streamed to my phone I will create separate iCloud IDs.
    My question is.....
    Can I set up my iClound control panel in Windows to backup photos from BOTH the iCloud IDs on the 2 phones?
    I dont mind the backups going to the same folder on my PC, but I do want to keep the pics on the phones separate.
    (also I am happy to use 3rd party software or manual options if not possibe with Apple products)

  • I have 2 iphones that share the same apple id but do not want them to share contacts and apps, how can I change this

    I have 2 iphones that share the same apple ID I do not want them to share contacts and apps how can I change this?

    You can use separate AppleIDs for iCloud, iMessage and iTunes - you just need to create unique AppleIDs for the iCloud accounts if syncing contacts that way (you will need an email address that is not already registered as an AppleID though to get another AppleID).
    Apps are a different matter in that purchases are tied to the AppleID used to log in to the store to make the purchase.  So you can create another AppleID for iTunes as well and use different ones on the different phones, but any apps you have already purchased with your existing AppleID are permanently tied to that AppleID.
    Really, unless you are sharing apps, content and such, there is no reason to use the same AppleID on each anyway.  So the simplest solution is to create new AppleID(s) for the second device.  If you need an email address to do that, just get a gmail account (or hotmail, yahoo or any other free email account).

  • Can two separate Game Center users share the same Apple ID?

    Two people share the same Apple ID on their separate iPads. Now want to start getting into games and compete with Achivements. Can they have separate Game Center accounts using the same Apple ID?
    (similar to how they use the same Apple ID with FaceTime, but are able to use different email addresses for video calls)

    Creating a new iTunes account does not remove any purchases made on a different account.
    If you want to create a new account : iTunes: How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes
    Or if you will want to use it in the stores and don't want to give credit card details : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
    Or if you are not currently logged into an account in game centre then you should have a 'create a new Apple id' link at the bottom of the login screen in it.
