  • If I change my Apple ID on my iPod will I lose my apps

    Right now my son's iPod 4s is synced to my Apple ID, however he is now old enough for his own Apple ID. If I create a new one for him, will he lose all of the apps currently on his iPod? If so, is there a way to recover them?

    No, no content will be deleted bu chanign the Apple ID used for Settings>iTune and App Store. If y change it in Settings>iCloud and Settings> GameCenter you wil lose Contact. Calndrs and Notes some other stuff.
    The Apple ID is also used for Settings>Messges>Send and Receive and Settings>FaceTime
    Note:
    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

  • HT5621 Me and my daughter are using the same Apple id and we share the same iCloud account. I want to change her Apple id so that she will have her own icliid account and I will have mine. how do I do it?

    Me and my daughter are using the same Apple id and we share the same iCloud account. I want to change her Apple id so that she will have her own icloud account and I will have mine.
    1. how do I do it?
    2. how do I  transfer her stuff which is in my icloud storage to her new icloud account once this one is created?
    thanks,
    Ari

    To migrate her device to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos she wants to keep to her amera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If she is syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of the notes and email them to her so she can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in her new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
    Once you are on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com from a computer and delete the other person's data from your account.

  • If I change my Apple ID on my IPOD, will I lost my existing settings and game progress?

    I linked two IPODs to the same apple id and have been using them that way for a few months.  When I download something on one, and it shows up on the other.  Each ipod seems to have its own game prefs stored locally, but we cannot play multi-player games because they share the same ID.  If I change the ID on one of them, will I lose everything and have to start over?
    Thanks.

    If yo go to Settings>iTunes and APp stores and change the iPod the exististing media anmd progress is retained.

    Go to Settings>Store (or Settings>iTunes and App Stores for iOS 6) and sign out and sign in with the other/updated account.

    Delete them and then download them from the desired Apple ID. This may require repurchasing paid applications.

  • I have an iPad and an iPhone 6. They are on two different Apple ids. How do I do I change the Apple id on my phone to match my iPad?

    I have an iPad and an iPhone 6. They are on two different Apple ids. How do I do I change the Apple id on my phone to match my iPad?

    On the phone, go to Settings, and change the iCloud and iTunes Store AppleIDs (sign out of the one you have, sign into the one you want). Note that you can't transfer apps from one AppleID to another, so you may still be prompted for your old AppleID password to update any apps that you installed under that ID.

  • HT1911 I have changed my apple ID but the phone has not updated I cant see how to change my ID

    I have changed my apple ID but the phone has not updated and I cant see how to change it

    You can log out of your account on the iPhone by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and you can then log back in with the updated version - if you created a new account as opposed to updating the existing account then your current content will remain tied to the old account and it can't be copied or transferred to the new one.

    Hi fredfromcan,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would recommend signing out of your Apple ID for iMessage on your son's iPhone, instructions for which are found here:
    iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268
    To sign out of your Apple ID
    Go to Settings > FaceTime, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
    You may also want to make sure his phone number is deactivated for your Apple ID:
    iOS: Deactivating iMessage
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5185
    To deregister your phone number, tap Settings > Messages and turn iMessage off.
    Cheers,

  • Hello. So I have used my iPod touch 4g for 2 years now and need to change the battery. My question is: will I lose everything I have on my iPod like my music,pictures and apps if I change the battery on my iPod touch 4g?

    hello. So I have used my iPod touch 4g for 2 years now and need to change the battery. My question is: will I lose everything I have on my iPod like my music,pictures and apps if I change the battery on my iPod touch 4g?
    Thanks for answer

    If you go to Apple, they will not replace your battery, but exchange your iPod for a refurbished iPod of the same model with a new battery.  Therefore you will lose everything that is not backed up.  If you change it yourself or have a third party change it, you will most likely not lose anything (but still best to make a backup as lllaass suggested).

  • If i associate my apple id with another email will i lose my icloud data or i will still be able to access all my stored data with the new linked to my apple id email address?

    hi there
    if i associate my apple id with another email will i lose my icloud data or i will still be able to access all my stored data with the new linked to my apple id email address?
    i mean i am not signing up for a new account, just changing my old id primary email which is my apple id login into account.
    in other words, www.icloud.com will recognize that it is still me if i login on the site? will i be able to see there all my stored information?
    and if i change my password, does it automatically changes the @icloud.com password which should be the same as my apple id pass?
    thanks

    After opening the email it shoud of had you enter the Apple ID and password. Using certian web browser's can cause errors. You can adjust securty settings (big pain) or you use another browser. Using Firefox or Safari should do the trick.
    Let me know if using Firefox or Safari resolved it.

  • Changed my email at iTunes, now phone will not allow apps updates

    changed my email at iTunes, now phone will not allow apps updates

    Hello rblacktx,
    If you changed your Apple ID (which is an email address), then you should be able to sign out of your iTunes Store account and sign back in with the updated information.  Take a look at the resources below:

    Sign in with a different Apple ID on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

    Nope. All iTunes content is forever tied to the Apple ID used to obtain it. Such cannot be transferred to another ID.

  • HT5622 I've changed my Apple ID email and its all verified ok but on my iPhone 5 every time I go to update an App or buy an App it comes up with my old Apple ID and asks me for a password. Why doesn't it have my new ID because on Apple ID link it does?

    I've changed my Apple ID password and when I go to the Apple ID link the changes have been emailed and are all verified. However, when I try to do something with an App or iTunes  etc on my iPhone 5 it still comes up with my old Apple ID and asks me for the password and I don't have the option to overtyped the Sppld ID section with the new email I've set. I can't update Apps or buy Apps because of this. Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Sign out and back into your apple id from Settings>iTunes and App stores>(Your apple ID)>Sign Out and then sign in again with the new address. Close app store from running in the background (or restart the phone if your unsure how to do this). If when trying to update any apps they are still asking for the old apple ID, delete and re-install those apps.
