How do I create a new iCloud login so that my wife and I can share an account?

All I want to do is create a second login my wife and I can share.  In other words I want to have 2 accounts one with my wife and one for just me

I'm trying to do the same thing.  I want to make sure I understand this.  I can only sync my iPhone & iPad to one iCloud address, but I can create a second iCloud account (with it's own email address) that I and my wife can both access?  This second account will operate much like an email account at gmail or yahoo?  The part that I find confusing is that in another posted question I saw a response, I think from you, that read "iCloud accounts can only be created using a valid email address."  This seems like a chicken and egg problem, as I'm trying to set up a new iCloud account because I want a new email address.  Is it as simple as I have to use an existing AppleID (with its existing email address) before I can set up a new iCloud account? 
Appreciate the help.  I've seen you responded to lots of similar questions.

  • 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
    Kelvin

    How do I create a new iCloud account?

    You can change the non-Apple emailing address which forms the ID for your iCloud login to another functioning non-Apple address at http://appleid.apple.com so there may be no need to create a new ID.
    If you really want to create a new iCloud account you will need to create a new Apple ID at the same address, using as the ID an address which has not been previously associated with an Apple ID. Then you can create a new iCloud account by signing in in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud on a Mac or an iOS device.

  • HT204053 how do i create a new icloud account

    hi i have had problems with my icloud since i started as i couldnt get my email address and my apple id just to be the same from get go i started off with a mobile me account and now it has changed over to icloud completly i dont no how to change any of my details i am getting married soon so want to change my email address and it would be so much better if i could have the same email for my itunes and everything else any one no how to resolve this

    Your ex-MobileMe address is (in both @me.com and @icloud.com versions) your Apple ID and your login. You cannot change this. However you can add up to three 'email aliases' - these are additional addresses (not accounts) which deliver into the same inbox as the main account. (In fact it's a good idea to give out alias addresses, rather than the main address, because if they attract spam you can easily change them.) (New aliases can only be @icloud.com ones; @me.com addresses cannot now be created.)
    You should be aware before you start that once you've created an alias you cannot turn that address into a full iCloud account, move it to another account, or reactivate it if you delete it.
    More information on aliases here:
    http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a490a
    The only alternative is to create a completely new Apple ID (for which you will need a non-Apple email address to become the ID) and open a new iCloud account with that by signing in in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud and choosing a new @icloud.com address.
    If you do this you can continue to use the old login for iTunes. Or you could change the login to the new ID but you can't transfer purchases from one iTunes account to another.

  • How do I create a new iCloud account?

    I've tried to find out how to create an iCloud account for my nephew's new iPod touch.  When I look at the instructions online there's always sort of a catch 22.
    You need an apple ID, for that you need an emailaddress. I would want that to be a '[email protected]' address. The latter I can't create without the apple ID.  What am I missing?  I read in these support pages that creating new '[email protected]' addresses is possible.
    Anyone who can give me easy to understand advice on how to accomplish this? I don't seem to find instructions to get this done. 
    Thanks for helping!
    Bart

    Can ew also do this on an iPod Touch? When we click Delete Account, we get the message, "If you delete your account, all documents stored in iCloud will be deleted from this iPod Touch."
    If we delete the account, will we lose apps data (like my daughter's high score on Temple Run!)?
    Thanks.

  • How do I create a new Work Center for the transaction launcher and links

    Hi
    The requirement here is for me to find out if I can create a new Work Center that will contain up to 6 assignment blocks and each block having either links to websites and BW reports, or triggers to R/3 applications via the transaction launcher.
    Can I do this purely through customising or do I need to create a new view using BSPs? If I can do it through customising please could I have a few pointers to what component I would need to use/copy?
    Regards
    Declan

    Hi Robert,
    Thanks again for taking the time to reply.
    Just so I understand, if I want to show a work center I need to link it to a component / view? I think this was the original query - do I need a developer to create the view that contains the 6 blocks with their links to reports, transactions and websites? I think when I talk about blocks I mean 1 viewset containing 6 views. There is no SAP standard view that would suit my requirements is there? Even if the work center had 8 views, I can always hide the two views in configuration.
    After the developer has created the view, I then reference that component in the target Id in the define logical links section of my work center.
    If my understanding is right, then it follows that it is not possible to create a user specific work center without some development.
    Is this correct?
    Cheers

  • How can I set up my Mac Pro so that my wife and I can use our separate iTunes accounts? I keep getting an error message that the computer is already associated with an Apple ID even though the two accounts are associated with separate log ins!

    I'm getting very confused with setting up multiple user accounts on my Mac Pro for my wife and I. We each have a separate iTunes account, and we want to keep our music libraries seaprate. I've set up two user accounts on the Mac Pro and I have my iTunes authorised and logged into my user account on my user account. Under my wifes user account (i.e. a separate log in on the computer) I'm trying to set up her iTunes account, but I can't download or play anything from the cloud - it just says "This computer is already associated with another iTunes Account" and tells me that if I 'transfer' then I won't be able to use the other one for 90 days! This is really annoying as my wife can't access music she has purchased on her iTunes account on the home machine. We're not trying to do anything dodgy, just access our music on our own accounts on separate log ins on the same machine. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

    Hi Allan, thanks for that. I've already set up a log in for my wife and that is all working fine. The problem is that when she logs in and opens iTunes and trys to associate her library with her iTunes account she gets the error message "This computer is already associated with another iTunes account". Whilst this is true, the computer is associated with my iTunes account under my separate log in, which should have nothing to do with hers. If she transfers the association to her account it will lock me out of my content on my log in for 90 days - I'm trying to work out how to associate each of the log in accounts with a separate iTunes account so we can access our music independently of one another without locking each other out. Hope that makes sense!

  • My new apple tv says that the date and time can't be set

    My new apple tv say that it cannot set the date and time

    I'm having the same issue today on several of our Apple TVs. I am the Director of Technology in a school district and starting this morning I am getting reports that Apple TVs are not working and upon investigation they all sit at setting date and time. All network setting are properly configured. The firewall is set to allow port 123 both TCP and UDP from all internal clients. It occurs both over WiFi and Ethernet.
    Is the Apple Time Server experiencing issues?

  • HT4759 how do i create a new icloud account

    How do i get my Iphoto photo stream to get online - icloud account created but no connection from iphoto\

    If you are successfully getting email and syncing contacts, etc. using icloud, then your account is working.  Have you set up photo stream on all your devices/macs?  On device, settings>icloud.  On mac, System Preferences>iCloud.
    I think you have to turn it on in iphoto as well.
    Once turned on, only new photos on an iphone/iPad are added to Photo Stream, not existing ones.

    I've created a brochure in Indesign. I can make it interactive and have the pages turn like a book, but I want it to open like a brochure. How can I do this and with what program?

    Next we'll want folding pieces represented on a screen that represents the unfolded piece of paper behaving like a pdf, behaving like a folded piece of paper.
    It's like inception!
    I use BoxShot 4 - you can save a 3D pdf.
    It doesn't allow folding - but gives it a good idea.
