If I make a new Apple ID will I loose all of my apps

If I make a new Apple ID will I loose all of my apps?

The apps will always be tied to the account from which they were purchased. Your computers will need to be authorized for that account and you will have to use that account to upsate the apps.

If I make a new Apple ID will I loose all my purchases on my old account?

My Apple ID isn't working as it keeps asking me for my security question and I have forgotten them so I go to send myself and email to reset them but i don't recieve the email. So if I make a new account will I loose my purchases on my old ID?

You will only be able to update the apps on the old account using that old account UNLESS you buy them all over again on the new account.
Apps are always tied to the account they were bought/downloaded on.

I set up FaceTime and Messages on four different devices with only one Apple ID. I used the exact method that is described in the video that AnaMusic has provided to you in the link in her response above. That method worked fine for my family, but you can create new Apple ID's just to use for FaceTime and Messages if you like. Many users prefer doing that as opposed to adding new email addresses.
IMO - using unique email addresses (like in the video) makes sense, because we (my family) all have different email addresses anyway, and it was very simple to add each family members email address to both apps and remove my Apple ID email address as the contact address on each device.
BTW .... if you are using your Apple ID on both devices - your phone number should be the number that is showing in the settings - not you daughter's. Did you set up the Apps with your Apple ID?

HT2731 if i set up a new apple id, will i lose all my previous downloads and purchases

My daughter has been using my email as her apple id and we want her to get her own. If she creates
a new apple id, will she lose all her apps and music she has purchased?

As the others stated purchases are inexorably linked to the Apple ID used to purchase them.
An alternative solution is to create a new email address and Apple ID for yourself. The amount you have invested in purchases for your daughter vs. yourself will factor in this decision.
If she doesn't want to use your email address, Apple IDs can be changed - not transferred, but changed to an email address not already associated with another Apple ID.
One caveat to keep in mind is the age requirement for Apple IDs; thirteen years of age is the minimum. The only way for someone younger than that to legitimately have an Apple ID is for someone older to create one on her behalf.

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.

Greetings elalewis,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you would like to change the email address that you use as your Apple ID, you can do so without losing purchased content. Note that email addresses ending with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com are already Apple IDs, and cannot be changed.
See this article for the complete steps to change the email address used as your Apple ID:

If my iMessage is hooked up to my moms phones and I make a new Apple ID will my imessages still send to her phone?

Me and my mom have the same Apple ID. Recently she has started reading my iMessages from her phone since we have the same Apple ID. I've turned off my iMessage on my phone so she can't read my texts since they are just texts not iMessages. And I can't get her phone to uncheck my number off of her 'Send and Receive' options. My question is, if I create a new Apple ID and use that, will she still be able to read my texts. When I created my new Apple ID, it's giving me two send and receive options: my number and my email. If I check off my number, even though it is still checked off on my moms phone, can she see them? I don't want to have to send iMessages and have it send as "[email protected]" I want it to say my number "xxx-xxx-xxxx" If anyone knows how to help me that's be great. thanks.

But my whole issue is that I can't get on my moms phone to turn it off. I'm asking even if I make a new Apple ID and under send and receive click on these two options,
send and receive messages at:
-248-25x-xxxx(my number)
[email protected](new Apple ID I made)
will my messages still be sent to my moms phone even though I'm using a different Apple ID. because on hers, it has her number, my number and her Apple ID all turned on. If I'm not making sense I'll try and explain better. But currently her send and receive looks like this:
send and receive messages at:
-248-79x-xxxx(her number)
-248-25x-xxxx
[email protected]

The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
   1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
          Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
          bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
          'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
          ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
          phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
     2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
     3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.

Will I loose all my free apps and music if I update itunes to newest version..

Will I loose all my apps n music if I update itunes to the newest version out? Please advise the last time there was an update I lost everything on my ipod touch. And I dont wanna loose everything on my iphone as well! Please advise..

You shouldn't lose anything from your computer. You should always make sure that your backup copy of your computer ( including your itunes library) is up to date before any update.

If I make a new Apple ID, will I lose my downloads and purchases from my old ID?

I got my first iPod (a nano) about 6 years ago and I was only 11 back then so my mom created an Apple ID for me. I've been purchasing music and apps from that account. I just recently got an iPhone and since my mom does not remember her account info (like her email - as we've discovered trying to use iCloud), I want to make a new ID. Please help.

You can't transfer an account's balance nor its purchases to another account - purchased will remain tied to the account that bought/downloaded them.
For his security questions, if he has a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on his account then he can go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into his account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side he should see an option to send security question reset info to hie rescue email address.
If he doesn't have a rescue email address (he won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then he won't get the reset option - he will need to contact iTunes Support or Apple to get them reset.
e.g. he can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset (and if he doesn't already have a rescue email address) he can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 . Or, if it's available in your country, he could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

I deleted my original email account which is tied with my original apple id account. If I create a new Apple account will I lose all of my music,videos, and apps?

I deleted my email account that is tied with my original apple account. I created a new apple Id and I'm afraid that I will lose all of my previous purchases. Please help.

Sort of.
- Apps and other purchases are locked to the account that purchased them.
- You have to log into the account opd do certain things with the purchases like transfer then to your computer.
- 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.
Try recovering yur PS for the first axccount so y can change the email address.
How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. SeeChanging your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.
I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed. If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You won't lose the programmes, but you won't be able to update them as it will ask you for your old Apple ID to update

If I make a new apple ID, will I be able to transfer my credits and purchases?

Recently, my brother was given an iTunes Gift Card. Whenever he tries to purchase something, however, it asks for the answers to his security questions.
The problem is that he has no recollection of even answering these security questions. I have no idea how to answer them, nor do I know how to reset them as it asks for them before I can edit his security settings. I can't figure out what to do to fix this, so I've been contemplating creating a new account for him(since this account has my back-up email as the ID and he doesn't know how to change it, I don't think he'd want it anymore anyway). The only problem is that I am unsure as to how his credits and purchases can be transfered from this account to the new one. I don't want him to lose the $25 he earned to pay for this card, and I'm sure he'll get at me for it as well.
Help?
