HT4436 backing up two iphones with two different apple ids

The guy at the AT&T store setup my two iphones, I want to back them up to two different apple ids and cannot figure out how to disconnect them.
They backup to one account.
Is there an easy step by step to follow.
thanks for any help!!!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You need to create a new account for one of the phones.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")

Connect 2 iPhones with 2 different apple ids to the macbook for updates and backup through iTunes match and iCloud. How can i make that happen?

We have a mac book pro and 2 i phones 4S. We both have different Apple Id's. But we would like to connect both phones to the mac book in order to update photos and itunes match. I subscribed with my apple id to itunes match and it automatically updates apps, music, books etc. However the apple id of my husbands phone is not recognized so his music, apps etc are not automatically updated. The same happens with icloud.
How can we make the mac book recognize both phones?

I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered

Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
Hope that helps

Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts. The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv. How can I use my iphone to do the same?

Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

I have two iPhones with the same apple ID, can I change one?

I have two iphones with the same Apple ID. Can I cange one?

Settings > iTunes and App Store > Apple ID = Sign Out...
Then Sign In using the preferred Apple ID.
Note:
Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID

HT204505 Can I pair two iphones with a single apple watch simultaneously?

I was wondering if I can pair two iPhones with a single Apple Watch simultaneously. I have a personal iPhone and a work iPhone, both of which I would like to pair with my single Apple Watch. Thank you.

No. You would have to choose which one you pair. Only one at a time. Sorry.

Can I use one phone number on two iphones with two apple ids?

My carrier allows multiple sim cards with the same phone number for usage on different devices. I would like to use a second sim card for my phone number on a second iphone, but with a different apple id.
Is it possible to use one phone number on two iphones with separate apple ids? How does this affect facetime/imessage?
I can only find answers to using the same apple id on multiple devices. This works fine, but is not what I want to do here.

You may be able to change the suspicious account activity message alerts
in your Gmail settings, and check that side of it, since I can use several
means of accessing my Gmail and Google Accounts; and in the past had
shared an account (not google) with another party half a world away when
her email server went down for a month.
The Mail software should not know the difference, unless the setup in there
is not correct; if this is so, then more than what she says would be wrong.
The Google mail Support help site pages should cover this adequately.

HT5622 We have two iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself

My son and I both have iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us. How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself from finding out what he is up to during Freshers week!

You have to use a different Apple ID for your son.

Separate "iMessage accounts" on two iPhones with the same Apple ID

I have two iPhone 4 handsets. One is for work and one is my private number. Currently I am using the same Apple ID on both phones, as I want to use the apps I've purchased on both devices and get my contacts from iCloud.
As I usually bring both handsets with me, it is annoying to receive the same iMessage to both phones. Is there anyway to create two separate "iMessage accounts" such that I can use iMessage on both phones, but messages sent to my work phone will only be received on my work phone, and similarly, the iMessages sent to my private phone will only be received on my private phone?

Sure, just create another Apple ID & use that for iMessage:

HT204053 how do i use two iphones with two seperate apple id's and not share all the same icloud

we have two iphone 4's and dont want to share our apps. how do we set up icloud and itunes on the same pc and use two different phones

You need to set up two user accounts on the mac. System Preferences>Users & Groups. Then each user can set up apple IDs for itunes and icloud any way they want.

TS4006 can i add another device to find my iPhone with a different apple id?

I have my phone and Ipad listed on Find my Iphone app, but need to add another phone that has a different apple id from my family. How?

For detailed instructions, see the Help section of the Find My Friends app. Go to the Me tab, then tap Account and Find My Friends Help.
Search that for how to disconnect a friend.

Can I have 2 iPhones with 2 separate Apple IDs access the same Library on a single computer?

Here's our current set-up:
- Dad has a laptop with iTunes and his music, iPhone and iPad all running off of his Apple ID.
- Mom has a laptop with iTunes and her music, and iPhone running off of her Apple ID.
- 2 kids with new iPods that we haven't set up yet (getting them for Christmas)
We would like to create a SINGLE library with all family music and media on Dad's laptop, then use his laptop to sync all music, movies, audiobooks, podcasts, and other media libraries so that we can each pick and choose what gets synced to our devices without messing up any other data that is personal such as apps (with embedded personal profiles such as Evernote and Facebook), bookmarks, photos, iMessage, iCloud, etc.
We assume that we need to maintain our two separate Apple IDs, and potentially set up some for the kids so that they can have some personal apps on their iPods, but if that is not the case we would appreciate some direction.
Thanks. If you can offer a solution please be specific in the steps required.

Hi, we don't have two iPhones in the family as yet but as I understand it each device can have separate settings for syncing calendars and contacts. For example my iPhone syncs these over the air with the Exchange server at work so if/when my wife gets an iPhone it would be easy to have hers sync to Outlook on our computer
To make sure apps purchased on one device don't inadvertently merge with others turn off Automatically sync new apps from the apps tab when you connect your device.
The Apple support document How to use multiple iPods with one computer suggests a number of ways for managing the media content. I use method two (Sync with selected playlists) with a slight twist. Rather than regular playlists I set the grouping field to indicate which users should receive which tracks and create smart playlists based on the content of this field.
e.g.
"Alice's Tracks" is "Grouping contains Alice" + "Kind contains audio"
"Bob's Videos" is "Grouping contains Bob" + "Kind does not contain audio"
Tracks that both Alice & Bob want on their iPods have the grouping set to "Alice/Bob"
etc.
I currently manage our family's five iDevices using this system, each getting a different selection to suit their tastes and the capacity of their device. An advantage of using the grouping field is that it is stored in file tags (for non-wav audio files anyway) so that it is relatively easy to recreate the playlists should the iTunes library get trashed and need rebuilding. Also useful if you move files about manually as playlist membership is preserved when you delete & re-import the tracks.
So far we have managed everything with a single Apple ID, but that will probably change as the kids leave home. Managing app updates from multiple IDs is a pain as you have to manually sign in to each account in turn, however there are other benefits to each user having their own account.

ICloud calendars with 2 different apple IDs

We have an iPad with iCloud using Apple ID#1. I have a new iPhone that is synced with my Apple ID (#2). How do I get the calendar on the iPad to sync with my iPhone if they have different user IDs?

if you setup a google calendar, you can more than one, but only 1 iCloud sync for calendars per ID. You will need to compensate on your own terms. try amalgamating the 2 in seperate calendar groups

2 Different Ipods with 2 different Apple IDs

My daughter got a new Ipod and gave her old to her brother. Sister and brother have their own Apple IDs. When changes are made to old Ipod 's apps or songs(3rd gen) changes are made to the new Ipod (5th gen) and Iphone 4. What do we need to do stop this from happening?

For syncing to the same computer see:
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer
Just what do yo mean by changes being made?
If the device are using the same Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App Store and Automatic Downloads is turn on in that same location, if media is purchased on one device it will automatically be downloaded to the other device.

Trying to find an efficient way to share all our music with 2 different apple ids

My wife and I are trying to make more space in the house and burn all of our CDs to itunes (we have close to 800 cds). We do have separate apple ids and separate itunes accounts on our laptops (pc's). We have (2) iphone 5s, our son's ipod touch, and we just bought an ipad mini3.
The majority of our music (85%) is from CDs that we bought and own. Only about 15% did we purchase from the itunes store. We want to burn all of the music onto 1 account/device, but also be able to access that music from all of our devices. We do not want all of our devices to share the same apple ID (i.e. I do a lot of work emails, calendars, etc on my phone as well as my wife on hers). We want to make sure we aren't getting each others text messages, not getting each other's emails, etc. We are hoping the ipad will be the main device for home use, but my wife still wants to be able to access and put those songs on her phone if she wants.
What is the best way to do this? I thought itunes Match but someone had told me that is only for purchased itunes store content and not for CDs that I own.

Hi Razmee209,
Thanks for the reply.
I have already been through this (should have mentioned it in my post). For some reason i can remove my details on my phone but my mums details are greyed out so cannot get those deleted although they are unchecked. The same goes for my mums iphone and ipad, my details are there unchecked but are greyed out so cannot be deleted.
I cannot for the life of me figure out how this happened or how to fix it.
Thanks again
Colin
