HT204053 two apple id for one iCloud account

Is it possible to assign two Apple IDs to one iCloud account?  I don't want to have separate ones for my wife and I...
Thanks,
John

No, each account requires its own Apple ID. Why is it that you do not wish to have separate iCloud accounts, this is generally the best way of doing things.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes you can use one iCloud account between multiple devices.
    What do you mean 'change the iCloud user name'.

  • Is it possible to create two apple ID on one iTunes account?

    I bought my wife an iPod Touch, how can I keep my contacts seperate from hers?

    Phil, I am confused about your statement/answer:
    ""Is it possible to create two Apple IDs on one iTunes account?"
    Yes.  I have two."
    Apple says:
    "An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. You don't have to create a new account for each service—just use your Apple ID."
    Thus an Apple ID is the same as the iTunes account.
    Did you mean can yu use more than one Apple ID on one iPod because yuo know the answr is yes.
    Or have I go something wrong?

  • Using two apple IDs on one Itunes account

    I recently purchases a ipad for my 86 year old mother. I want to also add music to it that I have cd's for. She now has an Apple ID of her own and I have my own Apple ID. The problem is this, when I log out of my itunes account and log in as her, I can still see all my music library as her. How do I see NOTHING under her account, until I actually load in music for her. Then can i sync her ipad using my OWN Mac and have it appear on her ipad? I have not enabled home sharing at all. Thank you!

  • 4 users for one icloud account possible??

    We're four to five users at work, needing a way to all be able to work on one document, not necessarily at the same time. I'd like to set-up one icloud account we can all use. Is this possible? Will we have to login every single time??
    Each user has an IMac, iPhone and some an iPad too. We'd like to be able to use all of These devices to work on.
    please help....

    If the document is an iWork document (Pages, Numbers, Keynote), you can collaborate on it using the iCloud iWork beta apps and still maintain separate iCloud accounts for each person.  Here are some support documents that explain how:

  • How do you create two apple ids for one email address.

    I bought two i pads for my kids. Since we have just one email address, everytime I try to create a new apple id it says I already have one. They need separate ids so their friends can facetime with one and not the other. Can't figure out how to create two apple ids with one email address.

    Well any ideas on how to solve this problem? When my daughter does facetime with someone it says she's Wyatt. She's not real happy about that. 
    Get her an email address, even if she never uses it.  They're free and available almost everywhere.  The only requirement is that the address be a valid one.
    Edit...
    You can even use an "alias" of yours.  That's a fake address that actually sends everything to you.  Check with your current email supplier.

  • Is it possible to have two Apple IDs  for one account?

    I would like to set up one account with two Apple IDs so I could have one restricted to only free apps and the other unrestricted.  My daughter has an iPod Touch and I want to restrict what she can purchase but also make it so if we agree that purchasing an app for her iPod Touch we can.  New to this Apple ID stuff.
    Thanks,
    BubbaGee

    No. Each account needs it uniquie email adresss as the Apple ID.  However, yucan use more than one account on a single iPod and in iTunes.
    To change the acount on the iPOd go to Settins>Store and sign out and sign in with the account you wnat. Also see:

  • HT204053 two Apple IDs which one to use for imessage on iphone

    I have an apple ID for Itunes that my family shares and a separate on for my icloud.  Which ID do I use for imesage and facetime on iphone and ipad

    The answer to this question: "Will link aggregation can be done on ce interface using dladm?"
    is No. if you want to aggregate ce interfaces you have to use Sun Trunking. If you want to do dladm a.k.a. native link aggregation, you need a GLDv3 interface such as e1000g, bge, xge (per the IP services guide)
    IPMP active active gives you a primitive outbound load spreading, I say primitive b/c there are no configurable options.
    With link aggregation/Sun Trunking, you can chose among particular policies (L2, L3, L4) that allow you some control over the outbound traffic spread (and only outbound can be controlled. Inbound is controlled by the link partner). dladm(1M) options section explains these policies, what they mean and how to use them. But of course you would need a GLDv3 interface first.

  • Two apple products using one itunes account

    Hi, i have just bought an ipod touch for my son and want us to have the same itunes account but i dont want him to receive my messages or facetime calls, is there a way that the two can be separated?

    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID for him using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure yospecify a birtdate that results inbeing 13 years old
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want heim to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.    
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

  • Reset Apple ID on my iphone 5s thru itunes. However, I can not change my apple ID for my icloud account on 5S. pl help

    Please help with changing Apple ID for icloud account on iPHone 5S. I have reset my Apple ID on iphone using itunes and app tab on settings.

    Hello there, KunnufromAndover.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides great information on steps to take after you've made changes to your Apple ID:
    Apple ID: What to do after you change your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796
    iCloud
    iOS 6 and later: Go to Settings > iCloud.
    If you signed out before changing your Apple ID, enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download to your device.
    If you're still signed in with your previous Apple ID:
    Scroll down and tap Delete Account. Depending on what iCloud options are turned on, you'll be asked to confirm that you want to delete data from your device. To confirm, tap Delete. (If you're using iOS 7 and have Find My iPhone turned on, you'll be asked to enter the password for your previous Apple ID. Enter the password, then tap Turn Off.) The data will be deleted from your device, but not from iCloud.
    Enter your current Apple ID to sign in. The data from your iCloud account will download again to your device.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Can you have two address books on one icloud account?

    My wife and I want separate contact lists.  Is there any way to do this with 1 ICloud account?
    Thanks,

    No, you need separate iCloud accounts. If you want to maintain separate Address Books you and your wife should have separate user accounts on your Mac anyway.
    You can setup separate Address Book groups within a Address Book in a single Mac user account.

    I also leave apps open that I use regularly as this saves battery and processing power by not having to keep opening and closing them.
    Many people find that hard to understand, but from what I've read it's quite true. Yep, it's true. Leaving apps open does use less battery than constantly closing and re-opening them (certainly true on iOS). This is because, as MI5 explained, the phone doesn't have to use battery and processing power to continually re-open them. iOS 'pauses' each app when you come out of it, so that it's not using any power. The only time that an app will use power in the background is if you have background usage enabled. The app would then use power whether it has been closed or not. Examples of this would be apps such as Facebook or Twitter where the phone is continually checking for notifications. Battery usage is absolutely minimal though
