I tried to create another apple ID as I forgot my password and now my iPhone and iPad are locked and I am unable to access them.
Does anyone have any answers?
Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

I have another apple ID but I forgot the password and apple does not send the link to reset it to my email. What do I do to have it back? It is really important.
If you know the answers to your security question for the ID you can use that method to reset the password rather than email (by going to https://iforgot.apple.com/password/verify/appleid).
If you don't, you'll have to contact iTunes Store support for assistance: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html. They frequently deal with Apple ID issues. -
i have been trying to create an apple ID for the past 2 days and cannot succeed : it states an unknown error has occurred and no ID is created. What to do?
The internet is the internet. if its not working then its something to do with your not allowing cookies from apple's site or they are having issues.

Safari created an incorrect user name for my hotmail account and I am unable to access it
I have a hotmail email account that I recently had to reset the password. Safari created the wrong user name leaving of one letter ("l) and I am unable to access the account. I am also unable to manually change the user name; it keeps referring back to the incorrect name. I have Safari 7.1 on my MacBook Pro. I have been in contact with hotmail at Microsoft and they have been unable to help me further and indicate I must bring this to Safari support which I am doing. If I use another browser (Firefox) I am able to get into the account but it would be nice to have this back on Safari. Appreciate help.
LJBrownI was able to locate the source in Website Data.....it was set up via mail.live.com through Microsoft/Outlook. They have changed their format considerably very recently. Anyway removing that one entry (.live) and then using a new password I was able to bring up the original email program although it's no longer known as Hotmail but Outlook. So I guess the problem was in Safari...I don't know how that user name was changed. It may have been a typo error on my part and the corrupted name was maintained by Safari? Anyway all is good now. Thanks for your help.

We have 5 iDevices on one account and I cannot use features like iCloud without mixing information with the rest of my family. We've made due for years, but it's getting very tedious. I would love to have my own ID and password but still be able to be under my parents' billing information. (The more I think about it, the more I begin to doubt the liklihood of the possibility)
At the very least, is there a way I can create a new ID and keep/transfer the purchases (and all other information like contacts, notes, etc.) I've made on the original account without starting over?For Family Sharing, why must I add a credit card to add a child? Please explain why my debit card, on file, isn't enough…

I have 2 accounts at ID apple. One of them the system don´t recongize my addres in Brazil, I tried to create another account but the ipad refuse it.
I´d like to exclude my accounts and creat another account with my same email. How can I do It?I don't know if that works on the iPhone, but....
View your SETTINGS and choose ICLOUD. That will give you your cloud settings. At the very bottom it has a delete button. Click it an see what happens. After deleting the account (and potentially loosing data connected with it) you should be able to log in to iCloud using your old id. -

I RECENTLY PURCHASED ANOTHER IPHONE. MY INTERNET IS NOT WORKING. I JUST CREATED AN APPLE ID. WHAT'S NEXT? I NOW HAVE TWO DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS WITH DIFFERENT USER NAMES. HOW CAN I USE ONLY ONE ACCOUNT FOR ITUNES, ICLOUD APPLE ID ETC???
Welcome to the Apple community.
iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID. -

Hello all,
We started off with the original iPhone a few years ago and now between my wife and I (plus Kids) we have too many apple devices under the same apple-ID (2 X iPhone 6+, 2X macbook Pro, 2X iPod-touch and 1X iPad)
We are constantly running into issues because everyone in the house is using the same apple id, downloading Apps using the same ID, sharing the same cloud and receiving each other's iMessages.
I know that I can create another Apple-ID, what I am unclear on is once I do have a new apple ID, how do I assign that to half the devices (1X iPhone 6+, 1 X MBP and 1 Ipad)
Please respond if you are able to help.
Thank youI'm not sure what they told your at the Apple store, but each Apple ID can only create a single iCloud account. If you want separate accounts for all these devices, they will have to be created using separate IDs. Note: you can do this and still share the same ID for other services such as your iTunes store account. The iCloud ID does not need to be the same as the ID used for other services.
To create an account, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with a different Apple ID. If you want to migrate a copy of the current iCloud data to the different accounts, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera 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 you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the devices keeping the current account will not be effected by this), provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data. -
I have an iPad Air IOS 8.1.2 and I am trying to create an apple ID for a child but I am unable to find how to change the "shared payment method" when I go into my account settings it does have my Credit card but in settings under iCloud > family > shared payment method it still have my debit card. How/where can I update this card to mt credit card instead of my debit card?
Hi azbaby2000,
If you need to change the payment method associated with your Apple ID, use the steps in this article -

Should I Create Another Apple Account For Game Center?
I have heard of issues where a person is doing software development work and they end up in a Game Center Sandbox instead of the real Game Center.
I am doing iOS software development work for both iPhone and iPad. In order to proactively avoid issues where my development world clashes with me as an end user, should I create another apple account and if so how?
Thanks!
P.S. I have apple care protection plan support for both mac and iPhone. If I should use one of those avenues, please let me know.Read here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1311
You can continue to use all the apps on your phone, but if not physically located in the US anymore, you won't be able to purchase from the US store.
