How do I separate my Apple ID password from my icloud password?

How do I separate my Apple ID password from my icloud password? i share my apple ID with my family to share software downloads etc but need to keep some icloud stuff secure from. Any help appreciated!
Mikul

David, thank you for the help! good to know the facts but sure must expose a few people who may share their apple id but havent thought about unintentionally giving the same people access to their complete icloud account! Mikul

    Hey, does anyone know how to update your NEW APPLE ID & PASSWORD on iphone?

    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Store
    Tap the current Apple ID then click Sign Out.
    Be aware. If you change the Apple ID and password, whatever content was purchased from the prior Apple ID will not be available on the iPhone.

    how do I change my Apple Extreme password

    It is extremely unlikely that someone has guessed your password unless you used something really obvious like "your name", "password", "default", etc as the password.
    It might first make sense to find out how many devices are connected to your wireless network. If you "see" 4 devices, and you only own 3, then you might have an unwanted guest on the network.
    To find out....
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Hold down the option key on your Mac while you double click on the AirPort Exteme icon
    Look at the number of currently connected wireless devices (Clients). You can perform this check from time to time to keep tabs on your wireless network.
    If the speed on your network has slowed down, there are likely other wireless networks around you that are interfering with your signal. You need to restart the AirPort Extreme again so that it will automatically scan and select the best available channel to use at the time.
    To do this, simply pull the power plug from the back of the AirPort Extreme, wait 10-15 seconds, and then plug it back in.
    If you want to change the password for the network, open AirPort Utility, click on the AirPort Extreme icon, then click Edit in the small window that appears.
    Now click the Wireless tab at the top of the window.
    Edit out the Wireless Password and type in then new password, then do the same to Verify Password.
    I would also recommend that you change the Wireless Network Name.
    Click the Update button at the lower right to save the changes.

    Hello pscorning1,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of your question. If you have already changed the information associated with your current Apple ID (*not* created an entirely new Apple ID), you may find the following article about updating the various Apple ID services helpful:

  • HT204053 how do I associate two Apple id's to one iCloud account?

    How do I associate two Apple id's to one iCloud account?

    Ah, now you're talking about itunes store and itunes match.  The itunes store account is not the same as the icloud account (the two may use the same Apple ID, buy they can be different).
    As for itunes match - you cannot merge purchased music from two itunes accounts.  Using one of the itunes accounts (call it A) and icloud account, use itunes match to sync the music to the cloud.  Then purchase other missing songs that are not part of A (but were in the other account) and that will add them to icloud match.

    No, you cannot transfer apps from one account to another iTunes account. Apps are DRM protected and forever tied to the account used to originally obtain them.

    My iPhone is stolen. How can I get my address book back from the iCloud? I should have synchronized my iPad address book. However, I loss some recent contacts from iPhone.

    I use my iPad to get the address book backed up by iCloud from my iPhone. However, I cannot see the recent new contacts from my iPad. Is there anyway to check the iCloud server to see if my address book backup from my iPhone is still there?
