How do I create an Apple ID for children under13?

I bought my daughter an iPad mini for Christmas, but it won't let me create her ID. How do infix thus?

It tells me she is not old enough for an Apple ID, but I found that the schools are able to set up a temporary one that the parent can confirm and transfer to a regular account. I'm trying to skip the middleman since it belongs to us, not the schools, and they are homeschooled anyway.

    Welcome to the community.
    Unfortunately, you cannot do that. The first hurdle that you are going to face, is that mobile devices, by virtue of being prone to loss, will always require that a password is entered before a purchase of any kind is made.
    If your concern about the password, is related to your privacy in regard to your mail, contacts and calendar information rather than their acces to make purchases, then the best solution would be for you to use another Apple ID for iCloud.
    Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
    You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
    The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.

    How can I create an apple ID for my daughter, without adding a credit card to the account? I have tried to purchase a gift card online, but it just credits it to my account; I cannot use it to credit her new account therefore I cannot create that account.

    There are intructions on this page for how to create a new account without giving credit card details : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    e.g. log out of your account, find a free a free app in the store, click on its free 'price' :
    click on 'create Apple id' on the popup :
    Agree to the terms and fill in the details, and you should get 'none' on the payments screen.

  • HT5622 How can I create an Apple ID for my child without linking it to a credit card?

    How can I create an Apple ID for my child without linking it to a credit card?

    Hi Kappy..
    that did use to be the case but ios 8 you can create a child's Apple ID which will stay linked to the main Apple ID until they are 13 when they can if you wish take over the Apple ID themselves.
    I Have the same question regarding creating an Apple ID for my son but it insists I have to add a credit card to prove I'm an adult.
    thing is I don't have another card to add to my Apple ID I have been using the same card for all my family's Apple purchases i just update my details when I get issued a new one.
    Any ideas or suggestions greatly accepted.
    cheers

  • HT204053 how do i create an apple id for my kids so i stop getting their silly downloads that need constant updating??? also when i get text msgs and emails on my iphone she recieves them too on her itouch...as well as visa versa.

    I was told I need to create another account for my kids separate from mine in order to avoid them receiving copies of my emails and txt msgs as well as getting ALL their silly downloaded apps on my iphone..
    now I have read that i can create separate apple ids for everyone and keep them separate from my iphone but linked to my itunes acct...
    thater has GOT to be an easier way...
    what is the best thing to do here? and how do i do it?  because thier itouches are linked to my account and their music that they purchased in also on my acct = can they share it?

    you can go to settings in icloud and turn off app sharing

  • How do you create two apple ids for one email address.

    I bought two i pads for my kids. Since we have just one email address, everytime I try to create a new apple id it says I already have one. They need separate ids so their friends can facetime with one and not the other. Can't figure out how to create two apple ids with one email address.

    Well any ideas on how to solve this problem? When my daughter does facetime with someone it says she's Wyatt. She's not real happy about that. 
    Get her an email address, even if she never uses it.  They're free and available almost everywhere.  The only requirement is that the address be a valid one.
    Edit...
    You can even use an "alias" of yours.  That's a fake address that actually sends everything to you.  Check with your current email supplier.
