HT204053 Using 2 Apple IDs for the App store on iPad

Hi there,
We're looking to set up and use two Apple Ids, so each can make and control their own app downloads on an iPad Mini.
This is our first experience in the ios environment and we're a bit lost with how to handle the Apple ID settings, specifically for app downloads, less for iCloud. On previous Android app stores, there was no need to give an ID + password for each single download.
Many thanks for any advice and help!

That's not going to work. You can only sign into an Apple ID on an iOS device once every 90 days. An iPad is a single user device. Yes, you can comingle the content from different Apple IDs on the same iPad, but it is best to download and comingle the content in the iTunes library of a single account on a Mac or PC and then to sync the comingled content to the iPad.

  • I cannot use my Apple ID for the apps store, and whenever I put in my credit card information it is declined.

    I just transferred to my moms old iPhone. I made a new Apple ID but when info to apps I cannot get them due to the fact that my moms credit cards is being declined

    are there funds on the card? because iTunes isn't the one declining the card, its the bank/credit card company.  also, is the billing address EXACTLY THE SAME on your bank statement as it is on your account

  • On my iPhone 6 how do I change iPhone apple id for the app store. it is in someone elses name?

    hello I need help,
    on my iPhone 6 how do I change iPhone apple id for the app store. it is in someone elses name?

    Why is it in someone else's name?
    Did you get this iPhone from that someone else?
    If so they should have released the iPhone form their account before giving it to you.
    All purchases made with that account will be forever tied to it and will require it to update in the case of Apps.
    If nothing has been purchased, you can go into Settings->iTunes & App Stores->Apple ID and sign out of their account there , and sign in with your own.

  • HT2589 Unable to use my Apple ID in the App store for free apps without card details

    I set up an AppleID independently of setting up an iPad. I tried to download the free iBooks app and came to a screen asking for the AppleID and then requiring that I enter a payment method. I have seen in forums that this is a common problem. I have updated the os to 5.1. I have tried to log in to iTunes on my pc but with the same result.
    Is it yet possible to set up an App store account without payment method using an existing AppleID?

    Hi ...
    The iBooks app comes pre installed on an iPad.
    If you can't locate the iBooks app, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout
    If that didn't help, swipe left of the Home screen. Type   iBooks  in the search field.

    Go to Settings, iTunes & App Stores, click on the Apple ID. Sign out. Click again and sign in with your Apple ID.

  • My apple ID for the app store is changing for downloading different apps from the app store?

    The previous apple Id which i have not entered for more than 3 months is reappearing for when I want to update snapchat? I downloaded a game and it was fine but I've constantly signed in and out but for snapchat I have use the other apple ID, which I don't want to. It is an Iphone 4 and has got IOS 7.

    Apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchased the app.
    YOu can try deleting the app and reinstalling with your new apple id.

  • How do I use my I'd for the app store and not my wife.

    IT always ask for my wife password and I need it to ask for my password. So I need to change it so it will show my ID and not hers.

    Tap on the id in Settings > Store and log out of it and you can then log in with your account. But any apps (and other content) that were downloaded by your wife's account will remain tied to her account, so only her account will be able to download updates to her apps

  • ITUNES - Are there disadvantages to using different Apple IDs for inistalling the .app?

    ITUNES - Are there disadvantages to using different Apple IDs for inistalling the .app file not overwrite the previous one at itunes?

    In my opinion it is best to use one Apple ID on your computer and iPad. Using multiple IDs causes confusion.
    I also suggest that each person with their own iOS device have their own unique Apple ID. On the computer create different accounts for each user so that iTunes on each account can be associated with the correct Apple ID.
