Can multiple users access 1 iCloud account for file sharing?

I work in a team where everyone has an ios or mac device. Is it possible, if i were to create a new @me.com account, for all team members to use this as their iCloud ID and therefore be able to share documents?
Would there be a limit as to how many users could do this?

Ok have just spoken with Apple Support and the guy didn't fill me with confidence in terms of his knowledge.
He stated that the max users sharing a iCloud account would be 11 (random number IMO). Also that we could only share/edit docs if we were on the same network which kind of defeats the point.
Can anyone verify or correct me on the above?

    ?

    Hi vighter,
    A subscription is tied to an invididual Adobe ID and password. The licensing agreement allows that user to access the subscription on up to two devices, but not at the same time.

    There is nothing stopping you doing so, but you won't be able to sync anything between them.

    I have only 1 ipad device, can I create 2 icloud accounts for the same ipad?

    Of course.
    To create the first iCloud account, open Settings > iCloud, type your Apple ID and follow the steps to set up iCloud.
    Then, to add a second iCloud account, open Settings > Mail, Contacts & Calendars > Add Account > iCloud, type the second Apple ID and set up iCloud for this Apple ID.
    Note that one iCloud account will work as the primary account and the other one as the secondary account. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4020

  • HT4436 Can I use one iCloud account for multiple apple ID's - ie, all of those that are part of our family sharing?

    There are five members of my family and we each have multiple devices, it seems.  I want to know if we can set up one iCloud account where we can store all of our iTunes downloads (movies, TVshows, & music) from more than one account.

    Purchases may not be transferred from one account to another.

  • Can't set up iCloud account for second Mac account

    I set up an iCloud account for myself back when the service was first introduced.  Today I went to my wife's login on our iMac and tried to set up an account for her.  From within System Preferences -> iCloud, I selected "Create an Apple ID..."  A little message drops down saying "This device is no longer eligible for a free iCloud account."
    I thought that separate login accounts on a single Mac could have their own iCloud accounts.  Is that wrong?
    It's also possible that I set up multiple accounts under my own login back when I was first setting things up.  I am one of those with multiple Apple IDs, and was confused about exactly how I was supposed to handle that, so I am pretty sure that I set up at least 2 iCloud accounts under my login on our computer.  If I have too many iCloud accounts, is there a way to find out what they are and get rid of the unnecessary ones?

    You can create and use different iCloud accounts on the same computer, whether they are single or multiple user.
    There is a limit of 3 accounts you can create from a device but I thought this was only iOS devices - maybe not.
    iCloud accounts can only be created using a valid email address, so I guess I'd start there to retrace what accounts you have.
    My Apple ID and iForgot.com may be useful sites for you.

  • Can I get an iCloud account for my PTA?

  • I have same Apple ID for iPhone iPad and my daughters iPod and iPad mini. Can I obtain another iCloud account for her without changing her Apple ID. She had a iCloud account on old iPod bit can't retrieve it.

    Me and my daughter have same Apple ID for my iPhone iPad and her iPod and iPad mini. Is there any way to get an iCloud account for her devices without changing her Apple ID. She has an old iCloud account from older iPod but  can't activate it or remember her old iCloud account.
    Thanks

    You have to use a different Apple ID to create a new iCloud account (each ID can only be used with a single account).  You don't have to use the ID for anything else though, she can continue to use her current ID for other services such as iTunes, iMessage, FaceTime, etc.
    The only limitation is that each device can only create three iCloud accounts.

  • A method to convert an existing iCloud account to a Child iCloud Account for Family Sharing

    I do not see any method by which to convert an existing iCloud account (we have three set up for our kids, all their birthdays are set later than their actual birthdays so we could grab their actual names before they were all gone years ago) to a new Child iCloud Account for use with Family Sharing (namely to be able to take advantage of the new features: Family Calendar, Photostream, 'Ask to Buy' on the Stores, etc. on their own iPad minis.
    If this is just not possible under the current scheme, please oh please Apple make this an option - there are probably thousands of others in this same boat, and I refuse to give up my kids' iCloud accounts!

    I've read every string and workaround solution on these forums (to date). There's really no good options here.
    USER STORY: My kid (age 7) has an iPad 2.  I created an email address for him (which he doesn't know about). I created an apple ID for him (which he also doesn't know or care about) and I set up his Apple ID with my credit card.  In addition I've set up parental controls on the iPad to lock it down and make it more age appropriate.   Over the past year or so it's worked out fine, he sees something he might like, brings the iPad to me and if I approve, I enter the Apple ID Password  and approve the purchase.   After a year of doing this, he has a nice little collection of apps, kid songs, a few movies, etc.   I would like to move my kid over to a legitimate kid account now that Apple has released features that support this.  Currently the ability to convert an account does not exist. Seems like it should be easy to change a birthday, etc.
    Almost seems like Apple is penalizing us for getting our kid an iPad last year.

  • How can I open another iCloud account for each devices with the same apple id

    my family has 2 iPhones 1 iPad 1 Macbook and 1 iMac. I had all the devices set up with one iCloud under 1 Apple ID. Now things are getting so mixed up with pictures, videos, calendar, notes and reminders etc. 1 iPhone is also unable to sync due to not having enough storage for all our devices. Someone from Genius Bar said we can have iCloud for each device under 1 Apple ID. I backed up all pics. videos notes important docs to my iMac and MacBook then I turned off all iCloud in all of the devices now I need help to create a new iCloud account at least for my 3 mobile devices to end all the confusion. every time I try to click the button "set up iCloud on this device" I always go back to apple site with step by step by step instruction but I keep going around in a loop. Please help

    I'm not sure what they told your at the Apple store, but each Apple ID can only create a single iCloud account.  If you want separate accounts for all these devices, they will have to be created using separate IDs.  Note: you can do this and still share the same ID for other services such as your iTunes store account.  The iCloud ID does not need to be the same as the ID used for other services.
    To create an account, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with a different Apple ID.  If you want to migrate a copy of the current iCloud data to the different accounts, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want 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 you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the devices keeping the current account will not be effected by this), provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.

  • TS4009 my grandson couldnt get a icloud account so i gave him mine but when i brought something my credit card was on his phone how can i get a icloud account for my grandson

    My grandson couldnt get a icloud account I had to put him on mine , it stated that you this phone is no longer able to ge a free id. so I gave him mine we now share but when i brought something my credite card went on his phone. I was able to take it off but when he downloads game it comes on my phone is there a way i can get him a account or is there a way i can change mine and it doesnt effect anything i have down with this account

    He can continue using your icloud, but he can still create his itunes account. As long as he is over 13 that is. On his phone - sign out of your Apple id in settings- itunes and app store. then follow instructions below and create his account. You will still share icloud (contacts, calendars and more) but itunes music, apps, credit card of yours will not be for him anymore, unless he decided to buy more icloud storage.
    Creating an iTunes Store account without credit card - Support -
    in the future I recommend you to get him off your icloud account as well, you don't realize it, but he can wipe your phone within seconds.
