How to manage two iPhones with one Apple ID

My company is moving to iPhones and away from BlackBerry so I may soon end up with a second iPhone.  I believe that I can set up the app store account using my current Apple ID so I can download apps that I have already purchased to the new phone.  But do I need to set up separate iCloud accounts?  And if so how do you do that?

use your existing apple ID.

  • HT204053 How to manage two iPhones under one Apple ID?

    Me and my mom need help. We are using the same Apple ID and our contacts have now been jumbled up because she has just now downloaded to iOS 7.3
    Now i have still not updated to iOS 7.3. but i do have iOS 7.1
    Could this be a problem and how do we fix our jumbled contacts with Facetime?

    When you share an iCloud account, your synced data such as contacts is merged.  To prevent this, your devices should be on separate iCloud accounts.  To migrate to a new iCloud account, start by saving any photo stream photos you wish 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, 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), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.
    Once you are on separate iCloud accounts, you can each go to icloud.com from your computer and delete the other person's data from your accounts.
    For FaceTime, go to Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your new iCloud ID.  If you are sharing the same ID for iMessage, do the same thing in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive or you will end up getting each other's text messages.
    You can continue to share the same ID for purchasing from the iTunes & App store without any problems.

  • How to sync two IPhone with one PC , but with different applications

    How to sync two IPhone with one PC , but with different applications ?
    We have two IPhones , but one PC , we want to sync separately , is that possible ?

    Absolutely, connect each phone, select what content you want on each phone, then hit the sync button. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, upon subsequent syncs, including separate backups.

  • How to use two iPhones with one iCloud account

    I am really confused at how to set our iPhones up.
    My wife and I each have an iPhone 5. 
    We have one iCloud account because we share our calendar and contacts.
    I did get her her own iCloud account to add some calendar events I don't need to sync.
    That is working all well and good. 
    The only problem is Siri.  It says my name to her when she makes a request.  So I went in to Siri and choose her name out of contacts.  Then it starts calling me by her name on my iPhone.
    Obvioulsy Siri is linked via iCloud and I am not seeing a setting to change that.
    If we could share calendars between two different iCloud accounts all would be well.
    Can we.  Can I set my calendar up as something she can subscribe to?

    Hi Friend,
    About Siri, it must know who you are. To do that, go to: Settings>>General>>Siri>> My Information. There, you can select your own information, like name, phone number, home address, office address and so on.
    About Calendars, you can set what you want to share with her, and what she wants to share with you as well. To do it, you must set it in two different places:
    1o: Set with iCloud: Settings>>iCloud, there you can set if you want to sync with;
    2o: Set which kind of calendars you want to sync: Calendars>>Calendars, there if you want to sync Calendars, but you won't sync your Work Calendars, unmark Work. It will private your Work Calendars just with your iPhone device.
    3o: General settings of your Calendars: Settings>>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>>Calendars, there you can setthe period of events you want to sync and set your Standard Calendar.
    Hope it will be helpful

  • How to manage two viewstacks with one linkbar?

    hello all,
    I currently am creating my website utilizing flex and have come across a roadblock.  I need a single linkbar to manage two viewstacks but cannot figure out how to do this so far.  i have tried using both id's in the dataProvider but the only one it manages is the last input.  please advise how to do this or another way in which i can accomplish what i am trying to do.
    for your information:  one viewstack will be for the pages of the site and the other will be for banners on each page.  I cannot put the banners in the viewstack because they will be larger than the pages
    here is some of the code:
    <mx:LinkBar x="10" y="116" dataProvider="{body, ads}" fontSize="18" height="29">
    </mx:LinkBar>
    when i run the application i do not receive any errors however the only viewstack that changes is the ads or vice versa if i have body last.

  • How to manage two iphones on one computer

    How to manage, sync, use iCloud without data getting mixed up on one computer

    Easy.
    There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library. Each device can have its own sync preferences with iTunes, which is selected under the various tabs for the device's sync preferences with iTunes.

  • Using two iPhones with one Apple id

    Hello!!
    I am currently an iPhone 3GS user.  I just got my new iPhone 5 and as I use two numbers, thought of switching my other number to this 3GS and thus using 2 iPhones for both the numbers.  So, can someone tell me if I can use the same Apple id for both the cell or I need to create a new one to use two iPhones.  (Please note: I use iCloud only for contacts sync and dont mind having same contacts on both the devices)
    Shall appreciate a quick response!
    Thank you. 

    Really appreciate this quick response.  So I guess there won't be an issue to use the same id on two iPhones at the same time.
    Thanks again!

    Hello, I have two iphones but one Apple ID. How can I use localization apps for a dedicated device? Tx

    On the iPad open Settings/iCloud and delete the account using the button at the bottom. Once deleted log in using the other account. For iTunes Stores use Settings/iTunes & Apps Stores, tapp on the Apple ID at the top then sign out. Once done sign in using the other account. Once you are happy with the changes plug your iPad into your computer to update the backup.

  • I have an Iphone with one Apple ID and have just bought a new macbook where I have created a different apple id (its complicated!!) how do I syc the calendar on Macbook with iPhone, bearing in mind the different IDs

    I have an Iphone with one Apple ID and have just bought a new mac book pro. How can I syn calendar from mac book with Iphone if the two devices have different apple IDs?

    No not bothered about sycing apps etc it is all about calendars and maybe notes. IN terms of how its done I just want it the easiest way and preferably so that if an entry is made on one calendar then it populates the other.
    Thgius is beacuse I have my work diary on outlok, which I then link with my ical. I want to make sure that information is then shared with her.

  • Owning 2 iphones with one Apple account has = Sync Problems.

    Owning 2 iphones with one Apple account has = Sync Problems.  iTunes is thinking my old iphone 4 is the same phone as my iphone 5C.  When I plugged in my iphone 5C it auto synced my 5C to iTunes and it wiped my 5C and restored it to the same content as is on my iPhone 4.  This is a big problem since my 5 year old has been using the iPhone 4.  It's all Mickey Mouse and Backyardigans.  (Total photo/app/contacts loss)
    I was able to update the 5C and restore from a 3 month old backup that is actually the content from the 5C but now when I plug in my 5C it wants to "setup as new phone" or "restore from backup"  What's going on?  I'm afraid to choose either option.
    How can I get iTunes to see these devices as 2 and not one?
    Can I use my Apple ID on both phones still or is this the problem?

    They were both displaying the same name in iTunes.  I changed the name of the iPhone 4 before the 5C was plugged in but it still went ahead with syncing it to the 4's data.

  • Syncing two iphones with one computer

    A co-worker and I share a secretary. We'd like to be able to sync our individual calendars (in Outlook '03) on our secretary's PC.
    Is this possible?

    UPDATE:
    Well I thought I figured it out when I realized iTunes gives you the option of syncing only selected calendars. My plan was to check only my calendar to sync with my phone and Gary's calendar to syn with his phone.
    Unfortunately, the option to sync only selected calendars is grayed out in iTunes. I can only check the "sync all calendars" box.
    Surely others have figured out how to sync two phones with one computer and only have the data you specify synced to the specific phone.
    Do I have to create another Windows user account where only Gary's calendar is maintained and then switch back and forth between user accounts whenever syncing?
    Any help would be much appreciated.
