I want to use a different apple ID for home sharing...how do I do it?

If you want to share from a different account simply go into the settings and log in with that home-share ID

Create a new Apple ID using a new valid e-mail address

In iPhone's Settings > Store > Apple ID > Sign Out and sign in the new.

If I use my husbands apple id for home sharing can i still use my own for downloading apps?

If I use my husband apple id for home sharing, can I also use my own to purchase apps and music?

Sorry, let me clarify. I have two Apple IDs A and B:
A: Used for iCloud. All my calendar, mail, contacts, and other iCloud features are here. This is the ID I use as "the" iCloud on my iOS devices and OS X machines.
B: Used only for purchases, on all my devices and machines. This is what I used to log into iTunes, or to buy apps for iOS or OS X.
The issue is that the only way (currently) to set up Family Sharing is to invite from an iCloud ID (A, in my case) on an iOS 8 device. That's not the ID (B) I use for purchases. The question is whether there's a way to share those purchases given that I'm configured on all my devices with A for iCloud. (Clearly if I somehow send invitations from B, I can share purchases; but that's not the question.)
It sounds like the answer to that question is 'No'.
If that's the case, how do I invite from B? Do I have to configure an iOS device with B as the iCloud ID? My problem isn't that I want to ("willy nilly") avoid inviting form B; it's that there seems to be no way (certainly no convenient way) to do that.

How can I use Family Sharing for Store purchases if I use a different Apple ID for purchases?

A key feature of Apple's iCloud Family Sharing is the ability to share store purchases with invited family members. However, like many people, I use a different Apple ID for iCloud and Store purchases (ironically, primarily for the exact purpose of sharing among family).
Can I use iCloud Family Sharing to share purchases if I use a different Apple ID for Store (iTunes, App Store, etc.) purchases?

HT5622 How do I change the Apple id against a certain telephone number? I have two iPhones and wish to use a different Apple id for each and confused as to how I do this?

How do I change the Apple id against a certain telephone number? I have two iPhones and wish to use a different Apple id for each and confused as to how I do this?

Create a new Apple ID for the second phone. If you are setting the phones up as new phone enter the ID you want to use on each phone.
If both phones are already signed in to one Apple ID then use the settings app to change Apple IDs on one phone.
Settings > iTunes and App Store > tap on the Apple ID > sign out > sign in with alternate Apple ID.
Note that if you have downloaded apps with the original Apple ID on the phone with the new Apple ID, those apps will still be associated with the old Apple ID and will require the old ID and password in order to update them.

How can i use 2 different apple ids for imessage and facetime on 1 ipad?

How can i use 2 different apple ids for imessage and facetime on 1 ipad?

Do you mean can you use one Apple ID for FaceTime and one for iMessage? You should be able to. Or, do you mean, can you log into iMessage (or FaceTime) with two Apple IDs at once? No.

HT2204 if i already have an apple id with my itunes and i just bought a new iphone do i want to use the same apple id for icloud as my itunes?

If I already have an apple id for my itunes account and I purchased an iphone should i use the same apple id for the iclouid feature or set up a different one?

Personally, I'd keep it simple and keep the same one.

How can I use a different Apple ID for Find My iPhone than for iCloud syncing/storage and iTunes purchases?

I use two different Apple ID's for two iPhone 4's and for iTunes on my PC. I use one for purchases and the other for Find My iPhone on both phones. How can I set up iCloud for both phones using each ID for it's user for storage and backup but keep one ID for purchases and one for Find My iPhone on both phones?

To better describe what I am needing:
1. - iPhone 1
2. - iPhone 2
A. - Apple ID #1
B. - Apple ID #2
On 1. I need A for purchases and iCloud and B for Find My iPhone.
On 2. I need A for purchases and B for iCloud and Find My iPhone.
In addition, will iCloud store text messages?

Can i use a different apple id for facetime?

my sister has her ipod hooked up to my apple id and she uses it for facetime. now, i don't mind that she uses it, but its gets irking when my phone is constantly getting facetimes calls from sophmore's in high school or when my college friends are trying to get in touch with me and my sister ends up getting the calls on her ipod.... can i just make a separate id for facetime or do i have to use my actual apple id ????

Use a separate Apple ID for iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime. Use the same (yours) for iTunes and App Stores.

Is it possible to use two separate Apple IDs in Home Sharing?

My wife and I each have an Apple ID that we have used in the past, pre-iTunes 9, for our own individual iTunes libraries. We would like to do Home Sharing, but it seems like we would have to go down to a shared Apple ID that wouldn't be either of the ones we already have. Is it possible that we can "sync" our two IDs with a new ID for Home Sharing so that we can still keep our separate identities, but still be able to Home Share? I figure that we could create a new ID and just authorize things from our old IDs, but we really don't want to do that. Any suggestions or answers? Thanks in advance for your help and sorry if this was asked before.

I figure that we could create a new ID
Don't do that.
Make sure both computers are authorized for both iTunes accounts and use the same account (either one, it doesn't matter) to turn on Home Sharing.

HT4352 problem sharing iTunes with new Apple TV.(model MD199LL/A. I have iTunes and Apple TV set up with same address and passwords, enabled iTunes and Apple TV for home sharing and still nothing? I have latest iTunes and Apple TV update. Any other sugges

Have a problem with Home Sharing with Apple TV and iTunes. Have latest iTunes and Apple TV downloads. Have both items set up for home sharing with same address and passwords. AppleTV running fine for everything else. FYI, my library is about 60gigs. AppleTV model is MD199LL/A if that matters. Really want to hear my entire music library and not just Purchased items. Thanks for any help!!!

I have an older PC with Windows XP Professional on it. I updated to the latest iTunes and I am able to access the photos, etc. on it. However, my Windows 7 PC still does work (since last Apple TV update). Apple TV does not recognize that Home Sharing is turned here. The latter PC has all my current photos on it which I would like share with others on my Apple TV. A fix would be appreciated.

Apple ID for home sharing and iTunes Store should be the same?

I've got 2 iTunes Store accounts, my girlfriend has one, and we're just moving in together.
A few questions ...
Can I create a 4th 'Apple ID' for our home sharing?
Would we still be able to listen to each others libraries?
Would we still be able to copy songs from one another, like I can with my 1 account between computers?
Are there any other downsides to creating a separate account for home sharing?
Thanks for your help.

Can I create a 4th 'Apple ID' for our home sharing?
