The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
iTunes content can be commingled in the iTunes library on a computer and synced to iOS devices. The computer must be authorized to use the content from the respective Apple IDs in the iTunes Store menu.

Can I share books between family members with different Apple IDs?
I am trying to share books within my family as we were always able to do with home share in iTunes. Is this possible? I can phisically move the book file, but must sign in as my Apple ID on my wire's system, effectively removing her library from her iBooks and replacing it iwth mine. All I want to do is share the book I bought. How can I do this?
Thanks for the link. I looked at this and tried it and it sync'd my wife's iBook with my account, so she now had my Apple ID logged into her iBook. I'd like to be able to share my iBooks with her, but add them to her library as we were able to do with Home Sharing in iTunes. I want her to be able to use her Apple ID with iBooks, but be able to read some of the books I buy on my account. Does that make sense?
Thank you. -
Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apples Ids?
Can I use iCloud to sync two devices with different apple ID's
What do you mean by "apple ID"? There's an ID you can use at the iTunes store to buy songs, apps, etc. there's an ID you can use for your iCloud account - the two can be different or the same. So which service are you referring to when you talk about an apple ID?

HT204053 Can you sync pages files on different devices with different apple ids?
Can you sync pages files on different devices with different apple ids? I have a personal iPad and one given to me for work. They are set up with two different apple IDs. I do all of my lesson plans in pages. I want to be able to create plans on both devices, but need to know if there is a way to sync the files without emailing, etc.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
No, that's not possible. A better way of working around this than emailing the documents to yourself is to use a third party storage solution such as Dropbox and a webDAV server to upload the documents. -
How do i link itunes between two computers with different Apple ID's
how do I link itunes between two computers with different Apple ID
You need to set up two user accounts on the mac. System Preferences>Users & Groups. Then each user can set up apple IDs for itunes and icloud any way they want.

Devices with different Apple IDs ring the same time when some one facetime me.
I have iPhone 5s and iPad mini. Each has its own Apple ID. But, when some one facetime me on one of them, both are ringing. Even one is in London, and one is in Austin.
How to fix to have iPad mini rings when facetime to it, or iPhone rings when facetime to iPhone, not both.
Thanks.TJBUSM1973, rbrylawski...,
Thank you for helping me on this problem. To answer your questions,
- No, each device has different contact, i.e. "reach me.." to different email address.
- No, one of the Apple ID is totally new one for my iPhone 6s.
- I have done some testing. My son set up two different entries of my devices, i.e., one for each device. But, it is still ringing one both devices when he facetimes me using one of his entries.
But, it seems that if someone just has setup to reach me on one device in her device, then, only this device is ringing. So, I am not sure why. My son's set up are two different contacts to my devices.
I will do more testing when my son brings his device back home.
Thanks again. -
How to associate an ipad to an apple id so bot ipads can access to the itunes match subscription?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
For both iPads to use the same iTunes Match subscription, they would both need to use the same ID for iTunes. -
Hello Apple Community,
Can I backup two devices (with different documents) to one iCloud account?
For example: iPad Air and iPhone 5, not everything is synced between the two, but I would like to backup each (seperately in the cloud). Is this possible?
This way when I change from an old ipad to a new, I can restore with the ipad backup, and when I change from an old iphone to a new, I can restore from the
iphone backup.
Thank you in advance!Terminology check here. Do you really mean a "CD"? There's a difference in Cloud behavior between content from a physical CD you ripped (which only has Cloud content if you have iTunes Match) and an "album" you bought from the iTunes Store.
Read references for Home Sharing.

iOS: Setting up Home Sharing on your device - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4557 - "With Home Sharing in iOS 4.3 or later, you can stream your entire iTunes library over your home Wi-Fi network from your Mac or PC right to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch."
The above can get pretty complicated. You are probably best off by syncing both devices to a single library and/or updating the libraries on both computers to have the same content. -

Yes, even though they have their own IDs for the iTunes Store, if everyone uses the same ID for home sharing, you can share the content. -
Can I use two different devices with different apple ID for backing up data on one machine without losing any data that was backed up with one device earlier?
The link is to a discussion started on 12/18 in the FiOS Internet forum. Here's the link I get now, however it is different than the link I pulled a few hours ago. If this system changes the link again, it may not work.

You can also look for the topic, "frustration and just confused" in the FiOS Internet forum.

Hi,
I was looking into purchasing 2 apple tvs and was wondering if they can be setup with different apple ids. I need to have mine setup with my id and be able to hook my devices to it , but have the one in a bedroom hooked to a different apple id and have my friend's devices stream to that one and not mine. Is this possible?Welcome to the Apple Community.
In order that your Apple TV only streamed from your iTunes Library and your friends to your friends, you would both have to have different homesharing ID's.
So far as devices go, any device on a network can stream over AirPlay to an Apple TV, to ensure each of you couldn't stream to the others device you can enable a password via the Apple TV which would then need entering when you used a device for AirPlay.
Shouldn't be a problem to do what you want to do. -
I am inquiring as to if you can 2 different icloud accounts (that come from 2 different iphones with different apple ids) on the same computer. I would like both iphones to be able to back up to the same computer since we have different accounts/pictures/mail etc.
Yes, if you create 2 seperate user accounts.
