I have 2 Iphone 4s's with the same apple id can I delete 1 without it effecting the other

Hi, Ihave 2 iphone 4s's with the same apple id, can I delete 1 of them without it affecting the other phone?

You should probably tell us exactly what you are trying to accomplish. Carolyn's answer is correct as always, but here's a small clarification:
You could, for example, sync and back up one of the iPhones using iTunes on your computer. Then you might take one of the iPhones and do Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
Although that action would cleanse all data off that specific iPhone, the data should remain on your iTunes backup and I believe it would remain on the other iPhone.
There is a difference between specifically deleting apps, messages, etc. on an iPhone versus resetting and cleansing an iPhone.

In preferences turn on iTunes sharing in iTunes preferences and keep iTunes turned on in both accounts. Or better yet put the iTunes library on the main HD rather than in an account and set the location of the library to that location in iTunes preferences.

HT4859 If I have three devices backed up to iCloud with the same apple Id can I delete two of them and not lose it

I share the same apple Id with my two girls and my iPhone tells me my iCloud storage is almost full. When I go to manage my storage my girls iPods show up. If I delete them will they lose their iCloud storage

Hi...
If you delete the backups it will not delete any content from their device, however the data will be removed from iCloud.
It will also prevent the devices from backing up to iCloud in future, unless this is re-enabled.

I have 2 iPhones - one for personal use and one for work. They are currently connected with the same Apple ID. I would like to separate the two accounts. Does anybody know how to do this?

Just create a new AppleID for your work.
As Allan suggested, items purchased on one iTunes account cannot be moved to the other account.
However, you can put items purchased on on account onto the other iPhone.

If you have a backup of the old phone that backup contains camera roll photos. Restore from that backup to get your camera roll photos back

Open the Mac App Store on the other Mac and in the Quick Links sign into your account. See if the Mountain Lion purchase is among hidden apps in the iCloud area of your account info.

I recently purchased a new mac computer and would like to sync the music off my iPhone to my new mac.However, my phone and my new mac have different apple Ids.The PC which my phone is synced and has the same apple ID but does not let me transfer the music

Hi I recently purchased a new mac computer and would like to sync the music off my iPhone to my new mac.However, my phone and my new mac have different apple Ids.The PC which my phone is synced and has the same apple ID but does not let me transfer the music. Home sharing is not working. How do I successfully transfer and sync the music off my ipone 4 to my mac book pro if they have different Apple IDs? Thanks!

What do you mean the PC won't let you transfer the music? Save your entire iTunes folder (this is assuming that you have all your music stored in your iTunes folder) to an external hard drive. Connect that hard drive to your Mac. Copy the iTunes folder to your computer. Hold down the option key while launching iTunes on your Mac. Select the library you just copied when it ask you to select which library you want to open.

If i have multiple iPhones and Mac Mini sharing the same Apple ID, can I use Facetime between the devices?

if i have multiple iPhones and Mac Mini sharing the same Apple ID, can I use Facetime between the devices?

Yes, but if you want these devices to have complete capability of calling each other they each must have their own separate, individual e mail address. If they don't have individual e mail addresses, the i phones will be able to call each other because you'll be using their individual phone numbers -- the Mac mini will be able to call the i phones, but, the iphones will not be able to call the Mac mini. This is because the iphones will be using the mini's e- mail address to make the call, and if they have the same e mail address, they will think they are calling themselves, so the call will not connect.
So, the way I see it is, if you keep all of the email addresses the same, the only thing you'll loose is the ability of the iphones to call the mini.
EDIT: Thinking about it, my first sentence needs to be modified. Your iphones can share an email address but it must be different from the Mac mini address.
This isn't rocket science, but it can make your head spin. LOL

Settings > iTunes and App Store > Apple ID = Sign Out...
Then Sign In using the preferred Apple ID.

I have my iphone 4 and an ipod touch on the same apple ID. My daughter tried to change the settings on the ipod so that she could facetime on both her ipod and iphone which is on a separate Apple ID. I no longer have a 3G connection.

I have an iphone 4 and an ipod touch on the same apple ID. My daughter who uses the ipod tried to change the apple ID on the ipod to be the same with her apple ID on her own Iphone so that she can use facetime on both devices. Not sure what she did but my 3G connection is no longer working.

Changing Facetime settings on an iPod will have no affect on cellular settings on an iPhone. Something else is going on there. If she did not change any settings on the phone, then nothing she did could affect your celluar 3G.

Sorry if this seems negative but you really should post such a question in the iPhone section of Apple Communities. You are much more likely to get expert help there immediately.
Just re-post with the same detail.

HT204380 If I have 3 devices using the same apple ID, can I FaceTime between them?

As it says on the tin.
2 x iPads and an iPhone all sharing the same Apple ID and icloud account.
Can we FaceTime between the 3 devices? .....and how. Calls drop straightaway every time: user busy.

Yes you can do it. I do it with 4 different devices all using the same Apple ID.
You need to associate different email addresses for each device in order to use those email addresses as the "contact at" email address. The reason the calls are dropping on you now is that what you are trying to do is like calling yourself on your own phone.
You can also create new iCloud accounts on each device simply to use for FaceTime, but I'm guessing that the users of the other two devices have their own email addresses which will make this work for you quite easily.
Take a look at this for more information.
