HT204053 Was using same apple ID for two iPhones. Just got new Apple ID for second phone.. Now how do I get new iCloud account

Question

How do I set up my iCloud account on this phone

Answer 1

You turn off data syncing with the current account, then delete it from you phone, then set up the new account and migrate your data to the new account.  On the phone that will be getting the new acount, start by going to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone.  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from his phone, not from iCloud.  The other phone will not be effected by this.)  Next, set up a new iCloud account on this phone using your new Apple ID and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to this new account.
