How do I set up a new account on my itouch?

I've been sharing an account on my itouch with another family member.  How do I create my own account?  Will I still have all my apps from the cloud?

Not true. You can use more than one account on an iPod.

Only one Apple ID can be associated with the iTouch.
Just go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in with another account. Just note that
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
You may also want to go to:
Settings>iCloud
Settings>FaceTimne
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>GameCenter
and sign out and sign back in

  • I deleted my Firefox Sync Account. How can I set up a new account on the same device?

    Now, when I open Firefox, and go to Tools, there is only the option to "Sync Now," rather than the option to "Set Up Sync." My account is definitely deleted, b/c Sync replies "Unable to locate your account" if I try to sync. How do I set up a new Sync Account on this same device? Thanks.

    karenbee,
    Here's the solution for PCs: Tools>Options, then click Sync in the Options window. Good luck.

  • How can I set up a new account without auto deleting messages on the server?

    Ive got accounts on COMCAST.NET (are those imap accounts?) and when I created a user account on Thunderbird for one of them the autocreate process immedaitely started downloading messages from my server before I was able to set the "keep messages on server" flag. (Its been a few months, forgive me if I am not using the exact right option text but you get the idea.)
    How can I create a Thunderbird account that will download all the message on my server (comcast.net) and leave them all there?
    That's the only thing keeping me from switching to Thunderbird. Please help - comcast's online web client is not the most bug free thing in the world.
    (Note, I am setting up a new win7 system, had been using OE 6 on winXP. I assume I am better off trying this than running OE in XP in a virtual window - and even if I moved my old message bases from XP I still need to create an account that won't immediately start downloading/deleting messages from my server before I can configure it not to.)
    Any help appreciated.

    Comcast only offers POP accounts, and one way to set up the account and enter all the settings before it connects to the mail server, might be to do it Offline:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/991539#answer-547878
    The server settings are given [http://customer.comcast.com/help-and-support/internet/setting-up-thunderbird/ here], but the method is for Online account setup.

  • HT1351 I have a new iPod Touch......I was able to successfully set up a new account, but I want it to be separate from the 800 songs I already have in my iTunes library.  How do I set up a separate library on the same computer?

    I have a new iPod touch; I have an iTunes library of music for an older iPod shuffle.  I'd like to set up the iPod touch for my wife with a separate library of music - I was successful in setting up a separte account, but it seems my 800 songs are still there in the library.  How do a set up a new account on the same computer without bringing along all the music that will clog up her iPod touch?

    There's a few ways of doing it. The following document may be of some help:

  • My daughter and i share same itunes account but we want to separate and have our own. if i change "our" account to "her" account how can i set up a new "for me only" account and retrieve all my contacts and apps

    my daughter and i share the same i tunes account but want to have our own now. how can i set up a new account just for me and still move or transfer my existing apps, contacts etc?

    Yes, with the credentials of the account that the media/content was purchased with.
    Content is permanently tied to the account it is purchased with and cannot be merged, moved, or transferred to another account.

    What exactly do you mean by account?  you wan to set a user on your laptop?

    Are these laptops Macs?
    What exactly are you trying to do?
    And what does this have to to with Appleworks, which is a long since discontinued Office suit.

  • How do I set up a new mail account on my iMac?

    Hello everyone,
    I think I used to have a Mail account however I could not remember the password when I tried to turn it on. I decided to delete the account completely and to start again. How do I set up a new mail account with a new email address and a new password??
    I can see how you create a new mail account but it then asks for an email and password so that doesn't help. I really didn't think it would be a hassle!
    Thanks,
    W

    You first need to set up a new User Name and Password with your Internet Service Provider (ISP); that is, whoever provides you with Internet access, such as Comcast, AT&T, etc in the US.  Alternately you can go on the Internet and set up a new email Account with a new User Name and Password with a public company such as Google's "Gmail" or Microsoft's "Hotmail".  Once you have set up your new Account with them, THEN you enter that information into Apple's "Mail" for it to send and receive emails for your new outside Account.
    Hope this helps

  • How do I set up a new Apple ID and iTunes account for my daughter, but let her keep the current content of my iTunes account?

    Discussions on using purchases from multiple AppleIDs in one iTunes library - https://discussions.apple.com/message/19543804
    As I mentioned earlier, the main time when this becomes an issue is if you need to do something involving associating a computer with a particular AppleID.  Careful management of your collection should minimize this situation.
    iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627 -  In connection with, "When you turn on iTunes Match or Automatic Downloads, or when you download past purchases on an iOS device or computer, that device or computer becomes associated with your Apple ID." "Your Apple ID can have up to 10 devices and computers (combined) associated with it. Each computer must also be authorized using the same Apple ID. Once a device or computer is associated with your Apple ID, you cannot associate that device or computer with another Apple ID for 90 days." - Additionally instructions for "Removing an associated device or computer from an Apple ID"
    So the first account is really "yours" and you are setting her up with her own account?  It helps to know this because if both are "hers" then there isn't an issue with her having full access to both accounts.  If in 10 years she moves 2000 miles away and she is pretty much independent then you may not want her to have full access to your AppleID just so she can authorize a device.

  • No Apple ID found, but when i try to set up a new account it says its unavailable - HOW can this be ?

    I have been trying to set up a new account with my gmail but i have No success ...  how can the Apple Id checker say one thing but when i try to create a new ID is says its taken .. ???

    If you used your original welcome email, which contained a link to delete the BB ID, then you are supposed to be able to create a new BB ID with the same email address. If you used some other method to delete your BB ID, then you should find that email and use that method. If that does not work, then you will need formal support...which is only available via your carrier, who would need to escalate your case into RIM.
    Good luck!
