How do i setup another icloud account under an apple id??

Wondering how to i can setup another icloud account under an active apple id?? Plz Help ... Thx

Would this work for my situation:
iTunes Account is under a pre-Dot Mac/MobleMe Apple ID and I want to also keep my @mac.com email address and Apple ID.
So if I go and convert my MobleMe account over to iCloud, could I then use your suggestion and create a second iCloud account so that I could then use iTunes Match?
This is because Apple can't seem to hire anyone knowledgeable enough to know how to merge two accounts into one (something done thousands of times a day by thousands of other companies) so they say I have to decide: lose all my iTunes Store purchases (music, apps, iBooks) or lose my email address.

    My phone has reached the maximum number of free accounts activated where can I buy one to use?

    You can't buy another one.  You have to reuse one of the accounts previously set up on your phone, or create a new one to use on another iOS device (running iOS 5 or higher) or Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or higher), if you have one.

  • How do I setup another iCloud email address

    i do I setup another icloud email address??

    Each iCloud account only has a single associated email account.  You can create additional alias addresses that will receive email in your existing account inbox, but it's still the same account.  This explaines how to add an email alias: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mm6b1a490a.
    If you need to create a new iCloud email account you will need to create a second ("secondary") iCloud account on your Mac by going to System Preferences>Internet Accounts>iCloud, sign in with a separate Apple ID, then check Mail in this account.

  • HT4436 How to I create more than one iCloud account under one apple id?

    I was told at the apple store that I could create more than one iCloud account under the same apple id. Does anyone know how to do this? I need to make three iCloud accounts so everyone doesn't get each other contacts and notifications.

    No: but it costs nothing to create another Apple ID and open a new iCloud account with that. The only caveat is that you must associate a different email address with the new Apple ID from that with the old ID (since the address will itself become the ID) - you could open a free email address with Yahoo or Gmail.

  • How do I setup an icloud account?

    Hello everyone:
    I have followed all of the limited instructions to set up icloud on my Windows 7 Ultimate computer.  I have downloaded the icloud control panel, but I do NOT see how to set up an icloud account.  I have been trying for several hours now to figure this out. 
    Thanking you all for any and all assistance and suggestions that you can give me.
    Sincerely,
    LadyJanette

    You have to first create the account on an iOS device (an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch running iOS 5 or later) as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html.  After the account is created, you then sign into the account on your computer in the iCloud control panel, as described here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/pc.html.

  • How can I setup multiple iCloud accounts on my Mac?

    I'm trying to setup additional icloud accounts.  Is this possible and if so, how do you go about doing it?
    Thanks!

    Thanks...  I appreciate the reply.  Since I wrote the previous email, I actually went and changed my apple id (the main id) and the documentation I looked at said iCloud will set mail up automatically(?)...  I had it working before. 
    Also, I tried to manually set up the ID via the Mail Accounts screen(s) and I can't figure out what my server information is...  Pop or Imap?  What's the outgoing server and the incoming server?
    I typically have never had problems setting up mail accounts (in apple mail) with no problem.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for responding and answering my question. If we decided to use my wife's icloud account as our primary, is there a way to "not sync" the incoming email with her iphone and ipad? That would simplify things greatly because she doesn't read any of her email on her iphone or ipad.
    If you don't want to sync the iCloud email account on her devices, all you would need to do is go to Settings>iCloud on her devices and turn Mail off.  This would remove the email account from her devices but would leave any other iCloud syncing services that you want to use with the account in place.

  • How can I open another iCloud account for each devices with the same apple id

    my family has 2 iPhones 1 iPad 1 Macbook and 1 iMac. I had all the devices set up with one iCloud under 1 Apple ID. Now things are getting so mixed up with pictures, videos, calendar, notes and reminders etc. 1 iPhone is also unable to sync due to not having enough storage for all our devices. Someone from Genius Bar said we can have iCloud for each device under 1 Apple ID. I backed up all pics. videos notes important docs to my iMac and MacBook then I turned off all iCloud in all of the devices now I need help to create a new iCloud account at least for my 3 mobile devices to end all the confusion. every time I try to click the button "set up iCloud on this device" I always go back to apple site with step by step by step instruction but I keep going around in a loop. Please help

    I'm not sure what they told your at the Apple store, but each Apple ID can only create a single iCloud account.  If you want separate accounts for all these devices, they will have to be created using separate IDs.  Note: you can do this and still share the same ID for other services such as your iTunes store account.  The iCloud ID does not need to be the same as the ID used for other services.
    To create an account, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with a different Apple ID.  If you want to migrate a copy of the current iCloud data to the different accounts, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your 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.  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 your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the devices keeping the current account will not be effected by this), provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.

  • HT5622 how do i set up multiple iCloud accounts under one apple id

    i would like to set up icloud accounts for several people but all while staying under the same apple id.  a verizon employee at the store nearest me told me this is possible by going to apple.appleid.com, but this did not work for me

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    An apple ID is an account. If your family require that their contacts, calendars etc are separate from each other, they all need their own Apple ID (account).
    iCloud is a different service from iTunes, you can all use different Apple IDs for your iCloud service, would use the same ID for iTunes, thereby being able to share your music, apps, books, TV shows and movies et cetera.

    To be clear, with iOS6 I DID have this ability.  Separate iCloud accounts, but every one of my devices was also hooked up to my iCloud account for finding purposes.
    Not through iCloud you did not - that has never been possible.  When using iCloud (either the find my iPhone app or online in a web browser) you can ONLY track the devices using the same iCloud account as the one you logged in with.  And the new security features in iOS 7 related to iCloud are specifically linked to that iCloud accounts AppleID and password, so allowing sharing would ruin the security model.
    You CAN use find my friends to track anyone who is willing to allow you to using their iCloud account name.

    have changed my Apple id which half worked.   But iCloud on the iPad still linked to old ID  - and can't sign out without giving a password that no longer exists.

    Hello Dun2015,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re running into an issue signing out of an iCloud account on your iPad Air because the password that you’re entering isn’t accepted. Try resetting the password for that Apple ID as shown in this article:

  • How do I make another Icloud account when it says I've reached the maximum number of accounts?

    I forgot my past accounts and can't make a new one. I didn't know you could only have 3 accounts. 1 was already on it from the person I bought the phone from, and the other two I forgot. How do I fix it to where I can make a new account? I really need to know because I happen to lose my phone often and the "Find My Phone" thing was really useful when I had my other accounts. Please help.

    You can make an account on another iDevice or on a computer. Then you can
    use that new account on your iPhone.
