iOS does not support multiple users like a desktop OS does.
You can use a web interface to your respective email accounts
to keep things separate; but there is no provision for otherwise
separating photos, media, etc.
If you wish, you can contact Apple to let them know of your desire:

I have two Apple ID's. One of them was compromised and I'm unable to reset the password. How do I disable it?

I received an email stating that I had downloaded something from iTunes that I didn't download. I went in to reset the password on that account, but now I'm unable to; the emals aren't sending to my email account nor is my birthdate correct anymore. How do I get back control of that account or shut it down?
Please help!

Ejects the harddrive?
Of what did your old Mac die?
It sounds to me like you have some file corruption somewhere. Either in the transfer of your library to the external or the external itself is flaky if it keeps ejecting.

Try syncing songs one at a time to see if there is a problem song(s).
Do the songs play in iTunes on the computer?

Hi john,
Yes, you would sign out of iTunes & App Store: Settings>iTunes & App Store, click on the Apple ID, click on Sign Out. Then sign back on with the new Apple ID. Also, if you have an iCloud account with the other Apple ID, you would delete that iCloud account, and then sign on with your new ID: Settings>iCloud>Delete Account.
Cheers,

HT5622 Can I use two Apple ID account in one device. Are there irregularities

Can I use two Apple ID account in one device. Are there irregularities

You can use one ID for iTunes/iTunes Match, and another for iCloud, without any problems. You can add a secondary iCloud account in System Preferences (or Settings)>Mail, contacts and Calendars. Its data will appear alongside the main iCloud account though you cannot use PhotoStream with it.

Best iCloud setup when I have two apple ID's

Ok so I have two apple ID's---One is a yahoo email address, and that is what I began using forever ago with iTunes, so I have a bunch of purchased music and apps with that username. Since that is my ITUNES username, that is what my iphone has been setup with.
The OTHER apple ID is my original .mac ID, which is now my mobileme ID, which was syncing my calendars, notes, yada yada yada
Does anyone out there have suggestions on how I should go about setting up this iCloud. Can you give reasons why one ID would be more beneficial over the other. I am trying to simplify my life and workflow, but it seems Apple keeps effing things up with their new fangled technologies!!! ;o)
Emails and Calendars are using my .mac name while music is using my yahoo name, how can I simplify all this?!?!?!
Cheers

You will need to continue to use the Apple ID you are using for iTunes for iTunes, whether or not you use it for iCloud sync services or not is up to you, you can move your contacts etc to iCloud once you log in. On the other hand you could upgrade your MM account to iCloud and use that ID just for sync services.
Personally, I chose to use use my Apple ID for iTunes as my iCloud Apple ID, but I never really used my MM email address all that much.

HT1311 For some unknown reason I have two Apple ID/Accounts in operation which is causing an issue. How do I completely delete one of these Accounts?

For some unknown reason I have two Apple ITunes/ID Accounts in operation.
How do I completely delete one of these Accounts?

I have a similar situation.. in my case, I started using an Apple ID a while back, then when MobileMe was introduced, I got an account there, and somehow that is the account that is mostly used when making updates or purchases.
Sometimes when making updates, it prompts me for the PW for one account, and sometimes for the other.
This is a real pain - is there anyway both these accounts can be consolidated into one? When I asked an Apple rep, I was told 'no', but they have been known to make mistakes when giving advice. So, is there a way? Technically, I don't see this as a problem.. but Apple seems to be of the opinion that this would lead to having apps 'shared' amoung users. I think all that would be necessary if for me to provide the necessary proof that both accounts are indeed mine, and not belonging to someone else.
If not, what about deleting the apps registered to one account, and then re-purchasing them with the other account? To do this, I would need to identify which apps are registered to which accouts - is this possible? Most of my apps are free, but there are a few I paid for.. not many, so this possible solution might work and not cost too much. Ideas?

I seem have two apple IDs - on for an icloud address and one for everything prior.

I seem have two apple IDs - one for my new icloud email address and one for ipad/purchases which has been active for 6 months.
Can I change this to simplify it, or should I follow instructions to ensure everything is matched?

I am logged into the same things on both my iPhone and my MacBook Pro, except for mail. I use a gmail IMAP account and everything there already works on both machines. The iCloud account on my iPhone uses one Apple ID and the one on the Mac uses the second Apple ID.

Can i amalgamate two apple accounts into one? I had one for itunes years ago and created a new one when I got my iphone recently.

I have two apple IDs, one I created years ago for itunes and another I just created for my new iPhone 4S. Is there a way to merge the two accounts into one?

"Is there a way to merge the two accounts into one?"
No.
Why did you create a new one?
Just change the e-mail address associated with the original.

I have a MAC, Apple TV and wifi. My ex gave my neighbor the password and now I want to change the password. How do I change my Wifi password so I don't mess up my Apple TV?

I have a MAC, Apple TV and wifi. My ex gave my neighbor the password to my wifi and now I want to change the password so she can't access my network any more. How do I change my Wifi password so I don't mess up my Apple TV?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can't do that, you'll need to change the password on your Wi-Fi and then change the settings on the Apple TV to log into your network again using the new password.

In setting up my AppleTV it asks me to turn on "Home Sharing" on my computer. It is already ON. I have turned it off and back on several times. Rebooted the computer, rebooted the AppleTV. But the same message is up and stops me from progressing.

How can I access "Home Sharing" when it won't turn on?

Hello EagleyeMe,
Congratulations on your new Apple TV. I am sure you are eager to get it setup. I recommend following the steps in the article below to troubleshoot Home Sharing:

Hi... I am running a dual core, Win7 64bit PC, with Firefox Regular and Nightly on it... I also have 32bit Win XP Virtual PC on the same PC with Regular Firefox... How do I sync all of them to give me the same bookmarks, history, cookies and passwords ???

I assume that you have separate Profiles for the Release and Nightly installations.

Add each Firefox Profile to your Sync account as a '''new device'''. <br />

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.
Best of luck,
Mario

Are you sure ? As far as I know an Apple ID can only be associated with one email address.
Go to My Apple ID and click Manage your account
KBS wrote:

Apple IDs cannot be deleted.
Anything Downloaded with a Particular Apple ID is tied to that Apple ID and Cannot be Merged or Transferred to a Different Apple ID
