How to transfer old icloud id stuff to new account id?

Hi all!!
  Ok I have a friend who has an iPhone 6 and his wife an iPad (old iPad using large usb cable) and they have an
iMac (no DVD drive) and they use the same iCloud id's on both devises now the part to do 2 separate iCloud id's
I can do no problem BUT the part I'm not sure how to do is to transfer Contacts, Calendar, Photos, music,
apps etc…. from the old iCloud id to the new one without loosing anything. This change will be done on the iPad side
So what to do?? I didn't tell them yet that it was gona be easy to do because I have no idea what's involved to do this
transfer so I need help to do this step by step (no geek language please). They have OSX 10.10 on iMac and iOS 8.2
on both devices.
THANKS ALL!!!

Technical part is as easy as it gets, you just sign out of icloud and when prompted you keep what you are allowed to keep. Stuff that you will not have a choice is really minor, but if you want to - you can backup that stuff by emailing photostream pictures or documents in the cloud. Once sign out - sign back in to new id.
Legal part is however different - while you are allowed to keep all those applications, music on ipad, it  belongs to old apple id still. Legally, so when it is time to update app you need to enter password for old account or delete an app and redownload for new account. If it is not free you have to pay again. Normally though families do not mind doing updates under the same id, as long as icloud and imessage/facetime are separate.

  • We had to change email and I can't access the old one. iCloud sends instructions to change passwords to the old account. I have tried deleting the old iCloud and create a new account, but it shows iCloud sent verification to the old email address again!

    We had to change our email address and I cannot have access to the old one. I have changed accounts but iCloud sends verification instructions to the old address. I deleted the old but it won't let me access a new account without he verification and they keep sending it to my old email address.

    Also-I tried to use my backup hard drive, but I wasn't able to drag/transfer/send/move any of my muic files onto my iTouch when the iTouch was connected to my computer.  I can't figure out why it won't let me do that. 
    The only thing I can see when I open my iTouch on my computer is my file with photos.  I can't see videos, music, or anything else.  What's going on?

  • My iCloud mail is used in my old apple id, how can i move my old iCloud mail to my new apple id

    my iCloud mail is used in my old apple id, how can i move my old iCloud mail to my new apple id

    If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    I changed my AppleID and password on the Apple web site but when I try to sign in on my touch it asks me to enter the password for my old Apple ID, how do i get ICloud to recognize my new ID?

    Hi appledapple1964,
    After changing your Apple ID information, you may need to manually sign out and sign back in on your devices so that they may recognize the update. You may find the following article helpful:

  • I have signed into a new account on my itunes on my computer. How do I get the music from the new account to be displayed in my library, because I can only see the old accounts music.

    I have signed into a new account on my itunes on my windows computer. How do I get the music from the new account to be displayed in my library if only the old account's music is showing up?

    You can transfer the music purchased from iTunes Store to the computer but not music acquired somewhere else.
    Syncing is one way street, computer to iPhone. You have to use 3rd party tool to transfer music not from iTunes Store to the computer.

  • How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme? My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured" and my AirPort tool on my PC will not permit me to add my new Airport Extreme network (no network names to choose from)

    How to connect old aiport express to my new Airport Extreme?
    I have a PC running with Win7 and just replaced my Jensen With a brand New Airport Extreme.
    I have set up the Airport Extreme to the internet, Iphones and Ipads and it work as it should.
    I have downloaded latest Version of Airport tool on my PC. In addition i have downloaded the airport tool for Ipad.
    I have reset one of my airport Express and it now shows up both on the Ipad and on the PC airport tool.
    My Ipad says "base station e5713b cannot be configured."
    I have wired the airport Express to my Ethernet to be able to "see it" on my Airport tool.
    My AirPort tool on the PC will not permit me to add the airport Express to my new Airport Extreme network (no network names on the drop-down list to choose from). I wished for an easy set-up, but nothing seems to be plug and play as the Commercial says.. can you please help me?

    Hi
    Thanks for Swift reply.
    Yep - I in fact have two A1088 and one A1264
    I actually bought the new router because the Jensen
    router always lost connection to the Airport Express after some hours or days. I
    always needed to restart my Jensen to play music and that was driving my wife
    mad. The hope was that the Extreme should fix this. Both A1088 have been set up
    to only stream music to two of my stereo amplifiers from my PC’s Itunes library.
    Are the A1088 now useless?
    The A1264 has been set up to feed internet into a Denon Reciever that needed Ethernet cable.
    Please advise
    Regards
    Sigve

    My dad and I have shared an iTunes account for years and I just created a new apple id but I have no Idea how to get all those purchases to this new account. Help please?

    The old Apple ID (presumably your dads) owns those songs and your new Apple ID does not.  However, your dad can authorize your iD to use the songs by going to Store > Authorize This Computer from your iTunes menu and entering his Apple ID and password.

  • Integrate old BT email address with new account?

    Hi,
    This is my first post on the forum, so apologies if I'm in the wrong section.
    I've just returned to BT as a broadband provider after an absence of several years. During this time, I have maintained my old BT Yahoo email address, and it's much more memorable than the addresses available to me these days.
    Please could a member of BT staff let me know if it's possible to attach my old BT email to my new account?
    Thanks in advance,
