How to manage two iclouds with the same Apple ID

My wife and I share the same Apple ID and the same ICloud, but now we have shared all our contacts. Is there a possibility to create to IClouds to manage different contacts and agendas but with the possibility to continue using the same Apple ID to purchase in Itunes?

Just create a new iCloud account for one of you and sign in with it in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud. You can retain the common ID in iTunes - there's no problem about iTunes and iCloud having different logins.

  • Can i set up my iPad and iPod to use iMessage between the two devices with the same Apple ID?

    Can i set up my iPad and iPod to use iMessage between the two devices with the same Apple ID? SO i could iMessage if out from my iPod to my iPad at home to be viewed by a family member?

    Look into using Apple Configurator.  It's the easiest way to "reimage" and Manage iPads that I know of right now.

    Also, look into using the Educational Volume Purchase Program, if you have not already done so.

  • HT5622 We have two iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself

    My son and I both have iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself from finding out what he is up to during Freshers week!

    You have to use a different Apple ID for your son.

  • I have two ipads with the same apple id but my 3 year old uses one of them, how do i update hers witht he apps she can use instead of everything that is on min as well?

    I have two ipads using the same apple id.  My 3 year old uses one to play learning games.  How do I set them up so my apps arent displayed on her ipad?

    When you connect that iPad to iTUnes, go to the summary page and scroll down, there should be a box saying 'automatically update' or something to that effect. De select that.
    With automatically update on, what you buy on one goes onto the other. but with that box off you can choose.
    On the iPad itself, it's under
    Settings
    iTUnes and App Stores
    and then you can choose what you want automatically updated between the two devices.

  • How to put two files with the same name into the same folder?

    How can I put two files with the same name and the same extention into the same directory?
    Is this even possible?
    Thanks in advance. 

    Are you sure? I would be very surprised if that was the case.
    How does the computer/filing system differentiate the files, if not by their names?
    How do you tell the computer which one you want? (On the command line.)

  • HT4859 If I have three devices backed up to iCloud with the same apple Id can I delete two of them and not lose it

    I share the same apple Id with my two girls and my iPhone tells me my iCloud storage is almost full. When I go to manage my storage my girls iPods show up. If I delete them will they lose their iCloud storage

    Hi...
    If you delete the backups it will not delete any content from their device, however the data will be removed from iCloud.
    It will also prevent the devices from backing up to iCloud in future, unless this is re-enabled.

  • Separate "iMessage accounts" on two iPhones with the same Apple ID

    I have two iPhone 4 handsets. One is for work and one is my private number. Currently I am using the same Apple ID on both phones, as I want to use the apps I've purchased on both devices and get my contacts from iCloud.
    As I usually bring both handsets with me, it is annoying to receive the same iMessage to both phones. Is there anyway to create two separate "iMessage accounts" such that I can use iMessage on both phones, but messages sent to my work phone will only be received on my work phone, and similarly, the iMessages sent to my private phone will only be received on my private phone?

    Sure, just create another Apple ID & use that for iMessage:

  • Can I manage multiple iPads with the same Apple ID?

    I have a client that will have 4 iPads at a trade show to use as displays for a small animation about their product. We will need to install a kiosk app from the app store on all iPads. I'm confused about how Apple IDs fit into all of this. Will I be able to use the same Apple ID for all 4 iPads and install the kiosk apps on all 4 devices? I realize I might have to pay for the app 4 times, which I'm fine with.
    I found the iPad Configurator app, but since this is for a client, I dont want my work computer being used as the "main" computer to control them. Do I have any other options? I guess I'm looking for the best way to get the same apps on 4 different iPads using one Apple ID if that is possible. Thanks for any info!

    Yes - you can use the sasme AppleID on multiple iOS devices, and install the same apps. You can downoad the apps directly to the device (via WiFi) and not neccessarily need to synch them.

  • HT204053 Can I back up two computers to iCloud with the same Apple ID and not lose any data?

    Hi.  I have a macbook air which is all set to back up on iCloud.
    My iMac has much more data and I wish to set it up as well.
    Will iCloud know these are two different computers or will it overwrite one with the other's data?
    I guess the main question is, do I need two Apple IDs and should I treat them as two separate accounts.
    Many thanks.

    Hi...
    If you delete the backups it will not delete any content from their device, however the data will be removed from iCloud.

  • How to retrieve old purchases with the same Apple ID but from a different country

    I used to be on the US app store and purchased apps, music and books on it. Now I have changed it to a South African account but can't update apps or download my old apps onto new devices. Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hello JasonHatts,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you dont see the other country purchases. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.
    Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account - Apple Support
    After you change the country of your account, you won't see the items you purchased from the previous country’s store in the Purchased section.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario
