How do I change it so two phones aren't using the same username and password?

Hubby and 17 y/o son are using the same user name and password for their iphones.  Does anyone know how to change the ID and PW on one phone so it will be separated from the other?

You mean the itunes account?  The manual will tell you how to sign out and into another account.

  • Resetting username and password, but I have two iPhones using the same username and password. Can I delete the App Store user name on one device without affecting the other phone?

    When we bought our daughter her iPhone I thought it would be a great idea for her to use my username and password for her App Store. As she is learning to download and search off apps, it appears that this May not hand been a good idea as the apps I have on MY iPhone, are showing as already downloaded and on our cloud. I'd prefer to change the username on her device, but in looking I am noticing that I will probably be deleting the username and password on both of our devices and then I will have to reset for both of us. Am I correct?

    If you create an Apple ID for your daughter, signing out of the existing Apple ID with the iTunes & App Store on her iPhone will not change anything on your iPhone.
    All apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps.
    If she starts using her Apple ID to download apps, when there is an app update for an app on her iPhone that was downloaded with the current shared Apple ID, she will need to use that Apple ID and password to download the app updates.

  • I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    I have Iphone 4s, and the phone will activate itself again. This I have verified, but when I shall put this onto my phone, so the phone will not approve the newusername and password. How do I get changed Apple ID on my phone so that I get using the new username and password that is verified? Silly to buy a new phone just for this .... The phone is almost three years old. How long can weexpect this to last? I would like an answer as soon as possible ... Thank you very much.

    It sounds like your device might be in Activation Lock.  Is it asking your to enter in an Apple ID & password, but only showing you the first letter of the email address and then some dots? Example: j•••••@icloud.com?
    If so, do you recognize that email?  Do you have an Apple ID that fits the same format?  If so, then go to www.cloud.com, log in with that Apple ID & password, and see if under Find My iPhone it shows this device.  If so, turn off the device, then remove the device from the list.

  • HT5621 I have several apple devices, three are mine and the other ones belong to my little children.  I use the same ID and password for all the devices.  Is this a good idea? Do I need to change the apples ID?

    I use the same apple ID for all my devices, 2 iphones, 2 itouch, 1 macbook pro, 2 ipads.  Becuse I have small children, can I change that and still, have control, and don´t need to buy the same things serveral times.

    It is something I would avoid if possible.   I would want to educate my children to think possessively and therefore of security.  Yes, I know you are all family but at the end of the day you wouldn't want your children to be blaming each other for any problems that arise.  Well, that's how I see it, for what it is worth.

  • How do i change my apple id because i dont use the same email any more and it wont let me use my current email because it said it is my rescue email?

    I need help

    Either change you rescue mail to something else, or delete the rescue email, and you should be able to use the email address as your primary apple ID.

  • How do you change apps on your phone with out using the home button?

    Just trying to see if there is an easier way.

    You can enable Assistive Touch which puts a small square with a circle on your screen and can use that to switch apps/exit to the Home Screen, I believe.

  • If two iphones were updated using the same apple id and now are receiving the same messages, how do i fix this?

    Hey guys. So i recently downloaded ios7 for my iphone 4s and so did my mom. But my mom decided to update her phone as well using the same apple id. Now she is recieving all of my messages instead of me. Please let me know how I could fix this. Thank you.

    Have your wife log in to her user account on the laptop. Launch iTunes, then connect her phone to the computer with the USB cable. Sync. That should put back all apps and media. Since you already upgraded her to iOS 5 she'll have to manually enter all her settings and preferences, and organize her home screens.

  • How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.

    How can I change fullscreen background color, so that it is the same when viewing on mac and iPad? I want this to be able to use MathType in widget text.
    As an example, html widget has white background on iPad, and black on mac. The same goes for interactive widget.
    The MathType text inserted is inserted as a image, and will have the same color when in fullscreen as when not. So I need the textcolor to be the same in both views. Anyone know how to fix this?

    We're still not communicating. This is why I wanted an example .iba.
    Here's a re-creation of my own, going off what you described. You said "all html widgets and all gallery widgets" have this problem. So I inserted a blank HTML widget and a blank Gallery widget, and typed into both. Inserted a MathType equation into both. I don't see any difference when I preview it on my Mac compared to the preview on the iPad. I want to help, but I can't help if I can't duplicate the issue.
    I've attached the screen shots and the .iba file [link to .iba file].
    Feel free to email me directly at bobm at dessci dot com. If you're uncomfortable giving some information here, tell me anything you want in email. I work for the "MathType company", Design Science.

  • I changed my appleID but iCloud is still using the old one and no place to change it.  How do I get iCloud to update to the new ID?

    I changed my appleID but iCloud is still using the old one and no place to change it.  How do I get iCloud to update to the new ID?

    You have to sign out completely and then sign back in.
    On a Mac, System Preferences>iCloud and click 'Sign out'.
    On an iOS device, Settings>iCloud and click 'Delete account' (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Your synced data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in (give it time).

  • TS1702 How do change the old Apple ID username and password to the updated username and password for the apps store?

    How do you change the old Apple ID username and password to the updated username and password in order to get updated apps from the app store?

    Do you mean you kept the same account but you only updated your AppleID?
    Just log out and log back in with new ID.
    Note that the AppleID is embedded into the item at purchase and cannot be changed.
    However, when you change your AppleID, it will link the old account name to the new account name so you will not have any problems updating apps using the new AppleID.

  • I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    Obvious question: If you want to have access to the same folders andapplications, why have two accounts? The point of different accounts is that you don't have access to the other person's data.
    Any application in the HD/Applications folder is available in all accounts.
    Sharing data between accounts depends on the material being shared. So, if you can provide more details we maybe able to help you better.

    How do you take off reseiving messages on multiple devices using the same apple account?

    Go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive on all but one device and add a unique email address on each device and delete the commone Apple ID email device
    If there is also an iPhone with iOS 6 associated with the Apple ID, uncheck the phone number on all but the phone.
