Double Apple ID on two iphone

My mum had an iphone before me, but I used my Mac and Itunes to set up something on her phone. Then we I got my Iphone I used the same Mac and Itunes and off course my ID account to set mine. So in our iphones we actually have running two Apple ID. We managed the problem for years. But now my mum just got a new Iphone and need to update all the data in her old one to the new one, but she cannot do it since they ask for my ID password. Moreover, in the meanwhile I change my ID, and they still ask the password for the old ID.
What can I do? Thanks a lot for help.

You'll need to migrate a copy of the iCloud data on one of the phones to a separate iCloud account using a different Apple ID, then manually delete the data you don't want from each account.
To migrate to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing notes with iCloud, 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 and won't effect the other phone), choose Keep on My iPhone and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create the new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
Then you can go to icloud.com from your computer and manually delete the unwanted data from each account.
They can continue to share the same ID for iTuens without any problem. However they should use separate IDs for FaceTime and iMessage (to avoid getting each other's FaceTime calls and text messages). On the phone that was migrated to the new account, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with the separate ID. Then do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

I'm using same icloud and same apple ID on two iphones. Now i get calls from same number on both iphones at the same time. How to turn off that?

Apple ID's are not device specific, so when you changed it on the iPad 2 it changed it on the iPhone 4 as well, since it's the same account still. What you need to do is create a second Apple ID (so you'll have two accounts, one for iPhone 4 and a seperate one for iPad 2).
To create a new Apple ID on your iPad 2:
1) Go into Settings > Store.
2) If you are already signed in, tap your Apple ID on the screen and you will be given a few options, one of which is to sign out of your account.
3) After you sign out, now click the "Sign in" button.
4) Tap "Create New Apple ID" and follow the instructions on-screen.

I used the same apple id on two iphones

used the same apple id on two iphones, and one of them i gave away. I signed out and deleted all the data that is connected to me. But the person who has my iphone, can see all imessages i get or send. And my apple id always appears on that phone... And of course when that person sends messages, it shows that it was sent from my email or phone. So is there a solution?

He has to un-sing of iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime and of course you have to change your Apple ID password!

HI
I was trying to take my Mac air to factory default settings.
I've done all that it says in the documment i was following, and them during the process it asked me the APPLE ID.
I put the apple id i have in my iphone. But it's not the one... it's said that i don't have any OSX associated with it... so it can not install the OSX.
So what can i do?

Using one Apple ID with two iPhones

A couple has his and her phones but only one Apple ID. They want to keep his and her music separate. They have checked the appropriate playlists for each phone, but the entire music library is on both phones. Can the music be separated in this situation?

Really appreciate this quick response. So I guess there won't be an issue to use the same id on two iPhones at the same time.
Thanks again!

TS2755 Problem: Both iPhones share incoming and outgoing Text Messages. History: We used the same Apple ID for TWO iPhones. Later we changed the Apple ID on ONE iPhone.

Two iPhones were set up using the same Apple ID. iPhone#2 was updated 4 months ago with a new Apple ID. Both phones continue to recieve text messages for either user. Texts from user 1 or 2 to a 3rd party are signed as the same user. iPhone#1 is an Apple 5, iPhone#2 is a 4s. All phones on the same Verizon account. IOS have been updated regularly.

Go to your imessaging settings and check to see that the phone number for device #2 is changed good luck.

How do I manage one Apple ID and two iPhones with iCloud

I recently updated my Apple ID and have two phone using iCloud (mine and my daughter's). How do we manage our contacts so we both do not have (or delete) each other's contacts? Thank you!

You have two choices. The first is to not sync contacts with iCloud on one of the phones. To do this, on the phone you want to stop syncing with go to Settings>iCloud, turn Contacts off and choose Keep on My iPhone when prompted.
The second (preferred) option is to migrate one of the phones to a separate iCloud account. To do this, 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), 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. You can then go to iCloud.com and delete each other's data from your accounts. Note: you can continue to share the same ID for iTunes and other services; the ID you use for these does not have to be the same as the ID you use for iCloud.

How can I share an Apple ID with my wife or Can I use one Apple ID for two iPhones?

My wife got her iPhone 4 before I got my iPhone 4s. To make things easier, I allowed her to use my Apple ID and iTunes to sync/backup her iPhone. Now that I have an iPhone 4s... I would like to keep sharing the Apple ID and its associated content (be it apps, music, etc) but I would like our contacts and other individuals items to be kept separate. What is the best solution for this situation? Ultimately I want to avoid having to make yet another iTunes account/Apple ID and because we are married we share everything already. Thanks for the help!

Thanks. I was afraid it would be something like that. I bought it off my NIH grant from Apple, so there is no problem proving ownership. Since I can easily live without iPhoto and iMovie on that computer, I probably won't bother, unless it prevents me from updating the OS when 10.9 comes out. The strange thing is I can update stuff like Xcode (which I absolutely need) without a problem. It appears to be just the apps that Apple both sells and provides with a new computer

Can I use the same Apple ID for two iPhone's?

Can I use the same Apple ID on both mine and my partners iPhones? and will there be any troubles or problems that may occur?
Thank you

Yes, but there will be quirks. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495
What isn't obvious is that you can use different Apple IDs for different functions on your iPhone; for example iCloud, iTunes & App Stores, Game Center, iMessage and FaceTime can all have different Apple IDs from each other.
If you use the same Apple ID for Find my iPhone then both phone's locations will show up at https://icloud.com/find. Which can be good or bad, depending on your situation.
If you use the same Apple ID for iTunes & App Stores you can have the same apps and music on both phones; some or all of them.
You probably want different Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime; otherwise, you will get each other's messages
Also different for Game Center.

Can I use same apple id on two iPhones

Hi,
I just bought a new iPhone 4S for my wife and I have an iPhone 4. We would want to use the same Apple id on both the iPhones.
Is it possible?
Thanks in advance for your suggestion.

Just that if I set different Apple IDs, will the data (like photos) etc flow from one iPhone to another automatically?
No, the phones would need to be using the same iCloud account for PhotoStream to stream the same pictures to both phones, however it will keep your contacts, calendars and other iCloud data separate.

HT204053 Was using same apple ID for two iPhones. Just got new Apple ID for second phone.. Now how do I get new iCloud account

How do I set up my iCloud account on this phone

You turn off data syncing with the current account, then delete it from you phone, then set up the new account and migrate your data to the new account. On the phone that will be getting the new acount, start by going to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off. When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone. After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from his phone, not from iCloud. The other phone will not be effected by this.) Next, set up a new iCloud account on this phone using your new Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On. When prompted, choose Merge. This will upload the data to this new account.

How to use the same apple id on two different iphones with different sync?

Hi all,
I own an iPhone 4s for personal use. Soon my company is going to give me a business phone and I can choose to have another iPhone. I'd love it but I don't know if what I wanna do is possible.
Let's say I will have iPhone P (personal) and iPhone B (business) and Apple ID MyID.
At the moment on iPhone P with account MyID I have application App1, App2, ... App9, I have contacts Cont1, Cont2, ...Cont9, I have songs Song1, Song2, ... Song9. All these are synced on my personal PC via iTunes and stored in the iCloud.
When I'll get iPhone B I'd love to be able to use on it my Apple ID MyID and to sync it with my business PC (so NOT the same one I use for iPhone P).
The configuration I'd love to have would be the following.
iPhone P
- Applications: App1, App2, App3, App8, App9
- Contacts: Cont1, Cont2, ... Cont9
- Songs: Song1, Song2, ... Song9
iPhone B
- Applications: App4, App5,App6, App7, App8, App9, App10 etc.
- Contacts: Cont1, Cont2, Cont10, Cont11, ..., Cont20
- Songs: Song1, Song2, Song10, Song11, ... Song20
So will it be possible using the same Apple ID MyID on both iPhones to have this configuration? Some apps, contacts and songs in common and some differents?
If so, how should I configure the two iPhones and the two PCs?
Kind regards.

If you use the same Apple ID for iCloud on each device, yes. However, you can use the same Apple ID for iTunes content on each device, but different Apple ID's for iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, etc., on each device. That way, you can have whatever iTunes content you want on each phone, but keep all of the other data separate. You can create another Apple ID here:
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/createAppleId?loca lang=en_US
Must be a verified email address.

HT204053 Can I use one Apple ID for two Apple IPhones?

Can I use one Apple ID for two Apple IPhones? I received an answer of yes.
Now another question. I have one ICloud Account, Two IPhones. Can I use Find my IPhone via the one ICloud Account? Can I see two IPhones on the map at the same time? or do I need to view the second phone via some other method.
