How do I create a new Apple ID for wife's new iPhone 6 Plus?

Our family has many Apple Devices (Mac Book Air, iMac, iPhone 6, iPad 3rd Gen. iPod 5th Gen. and as of today a new iPhone 6 Plus.  All of our Devices have always been using one Apple ID.  This has created zero issues until now.  With my wife's new iPhone 6 Plus I downloaded Find Friends and also Find My iPhone.  I can't find any way to set up her iPhone 6 Plus tied only to  her email address and cell phone number.  Whenever I open Find Friends on either device and select the appropriate email address it changes the other device to that email address for Find Friends.  I am beginning to think that now with two iPhones we will need to get my wife her own Apple ID.  When I went to Create an Apple ID using her email address it won't allow it because her email address is associated as an alternate under my Apple ID.  Reading Apple Support documents it shows using a common Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases but a separate Apple ID for iCloud if desired.  Bottom Line, I think I have to Delete her email address from My Apple ID Account so that I can use that email for her new Apple ID.  When I delete her email address from My Apple ID Account isn't that going to impact our shared Apps and iTunes Purchases?

No, she can use the existing AppleID for purchasing and use her own new AppleID for content syncing. If you wish to, you can set up Family Sharing and add her to your iCloud family. That will enable you to share certain resources such as calendars.

    how can i use a deferent apple id for iCloud on my iPhone?

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  When you delete the existing account you will get an option to keep the iCloud data on your device.
    Before deleting the account, save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll.

  • How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id?

    Hi there
    How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id? My original email address is associated with my previous employers.
    When I send email from my Macbook, it seems as if I still work there, which is a problem.
    I would like to use the email address that I created for my iPad.
    When I login with my appleid (for my macbook) I keep getting the old company one, not the new one.
    Is there any way of resolving this? I
    Thanks

    It looks like the article below has the information you are looking for.
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    Turn off iCloud completely
    Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    Note:   If you delete your iCloud account, iCloud will no longer back up your iOS data. You can still back up your device in iTunes (for more information, open iTunes and choose iTunes > Help). 
    On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.
    If your Mac has OS X v10.7.5 and you turn off iCloud, your calendar information and reminders aren’t stored locally in iCal. If you want to retain your calendar and reminder information, you need to back it up before turning off iCloud. For more information, see the Apple Support article iCloud: Calendar & reminder data removed from Calendar and Reminders or iCal when disabling iCloud Calendar.
    On your Windows computer, open the iCloud Control Panel, then click Sign Out.
    Note:   If you turned on automatic download of music, app, or book purchases (in iTunes preferences or in Settings on your iOS device), your iTunes purchases are still downloaded to your devices.
    Set up iCloud on your devices

    An email address can only be associated with one Apple ID at a time. You will have to remove it from the other ID or use a different email address.

  • 4 of us on 1 Apple ID/icloud acct. How do I create 3 new ID's?

    We have 4 members of our family on one Apple ID, and sharing one Cloud acct. How do I create 3 new ID's?  Our cloud acct is full, and we need our own space! :-)

    One person can keep their devices on the current account.  The others can create new accounts with new IDs, then migrate a copy of the data to the new account.  To do this, first create the new Apple IDs here: https://appleid.apple.com/account.  This will require a verifiable non-Apple email account for each.  Then, to migrate to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep on the device to the 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 (or Save Image if it's running iOS 8).  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 the new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (or Sign Out if running iOS 8), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice when prompted.  (Deleting the account only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; devices keeping the current account will not be effected by this.)  Then sign back in with one of the new Apple IDs to create the new account and choose Merge to upload the data to the new account.
    Once everyone is on separate accounts, you can each go to iCloud.com and delete the other people's data from your account.

  • HT204053 I created a different Apple ID for Icloud on my new IPhone and having problems with getting Itunes,etc.  How do I change my Icloud Apple ID to be the same ID and password?

    I created a different Apple ID for my Icloud on my new IPhone (said a free email was available or something similar) rather than the other choice offered of using my same existing Apple ID.  Now I keep having issues accessing my account and my password isn't working to access Icloud to download Itunes.  Can I undo this new account I created and just use my one existing Apple ID?  This is my first IPhone and confused with this part of the setup!  Thanks.

    If you know the answers to your security questions, you should be able to change your password without using email authentication (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HE36).  If you don't, you may be out of luck.

    iOS 5 & iCloud Tips: Sharing an Apple ID With Your Family

  • I have an iPad and and iPhone. They share an iCloud and I want separate iCloud accounts. How do I create a new account without losing any information? I want to keep the original account on one device.

    I have an iPad and an iPhone that share an iCloud account. I didn't realize when I got my iPad last year that when I signed up the iCloud on the device that it would share and use 5g of iCloud between the both of them. How do I unsync them and have two separate iCloud accounts? I don't care about sharing between them. When my kids put games on my iPad, I don't want them going on my phone. How do I create a new iCloud without losing any info on the other device?

  • I am trying to install a Canon Pixma MG8220 which requires my Airport Extreme password. I do no know it. I then  went to default Airport settings and renamed my network, but Airport required my password. How do I create a new password?

    How do I create a new password for my Airport Extreme if I do not know the old password?

    If you have the Mac that you used to configure the AirPort Extreme originally, you may be able to retrieve the password from KeyChain Access.
    See this User Tip from forum expert Tesserax:
                     AirPort - Regain Access from Forgotten Passwords
    If still no luck, you can reset the passwords again. Pay very close attention to the information about a Soft Reset in this Apple support document:
