Is it possible to change the Apple id on one device while keeping all purchases and apps? Also, several other devices are using the same apple Id.
There are about 3 devices that use the same apple id. I would like to take my iphone and make my own apple id but I don't want to lose all the purchases that were made on the original apple id
You can sign out and sign in with the new ID. The old purchases wont go away.

I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up. I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. I have authorized this new computer so I don't know what the problem is. I can't get on my old computer with my itunes account because the computer is broken. Not sure what to do
"I have logged in to my itunes account on a different computer and none of my purchased music is showing up."
Correct. it does not magially appear in other places. It will only be where you put it.
"I also have plugged my iphone in to get updates but it says I will lose all media and apps if I don't update on the computer where I sync everything. "
Correct as well. Iphone will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to another will erase the current content.
You need to copy everything ( itunes library/contacts/pics/calendars/files/docs) from the old computer, or your backup copy of the old one, to the new one. -
If I restore an Ipad will all others that are using the same apple id lose their apps?
If I restore an Ipad that is disabled will all other Ipads using the same Apple ID lose their apps and information that is on them?
Nope. Just on the one you restore.

My friend had a shared phone account with his now ex girlfriend and he was not phone savy so they shared an apple id. She is able to read all of his text messages. I was wondering if the backup is deleted from the iTunes account and the iCloud, are those messages still readable by her on her iPad?
If you physically delete ANY file, you CANNOT acess it from the cloud. Because THERE'S NOTHING TO ACCESS anymore...
If you move your files to the EHD, you need to point your library to the EHD or NONE of the songs will be available anywhere, including the MBA.
EVERYTHING on your iPhone will likely have to be "reacquired" once the move is complete. -
How to keep iPad and iPod apps sync separate if you are using the same PC for backups
Syncing the iPad and iPod using the same PC syncs the apps between the devices. How an Thisbe avoided I don't want to use the same apps in all my devices.
No problem. The computer's iTunes keeps track by serial number. The human keeps track by a unique name for each one. In my case, the iPad is cleverly named "George's iPad" while the iPod is equally cleverly named "George's iPod."

Does "Erase All Content and Settings" also remove associated device with an apple ID?
I have to give away an iPhone.
When I follow the steps in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5661, does it also mean that the association to the apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627) goes away? I want it to.You're welcome.

We had one family apple id. I want to keep all devices on the same apple id for itunes but separate for everything else on the cloud. How can I change the other apple ids now? We have 3 iphones and an ipad.
Hi, thank you for this post. I hope you might be able to help me too?
I am relatively new to apple (have an iPad) and having been a PC user for years I was pleasantly surprised with the apple experience and am now trying to work out the best set up for me, my husband and young son as I am buying them both of them apple products this Christmas. New Mac laptop/ ipad for hubby and then an ipod touch for my son oh and a new mac laptop for me. We are also thinking of moving from Blackberries to iPhones. Yes we seem to be hooked! but i am unsure about the home family set up and how to replace my PC network that I run off an 8TB server.
In reading the forums I keep seeing people talk about problems they have with two apple IDs and trying to merge them. I have also heard about a family ID allowing us to share apps legally. I am really nervous of setting us up wrong and then having problems later and hence i am now looking for some advice on how to share as much as we can legally but also make usage practical and not invading each others privacy. thoughts so far:
Music - I think we are happy to share the same music and access using one ID (we currently don't buy much music from apple but have lots of CDs we share).
Photos - It would be nice to share photos - as long as my son or husband cannot accidentally delete photos of mine (which is my biggest concern). I currently load all camera photos onto my 8TB storage box as the network owner and my husband has full access to copy any photo to his laptop but can never delete the original copies by accident.
Apps - If possible i would like us to share these but they are cheap enough these days to separate if really needed. Would be good to share licence for pages etc though
cloud, contacts, facetime, email - this is what is making me consider separate IDs or learning how to have multiple users in one apple ID - I do not want to have to share synced contacts with my husband. I have near 300 contacts now through work etc and he will not want them plus i will not want his or him being able to delete mine by mistake. and then for email and facetime, well I want to give him his privacy so I do not receive his messages etc. especially now that we are considering switching to iPhones
Then last but not least, i don't know the best solution for my son. he is only 7 years old so even though I don't want to pay for things again I don't want him being able to download "just any" app from the purchased icon in Appstore. Also, is there a child friendly setting to prevent him from viewing inappropriate content on the internet?
Appreciate I have asked a lot of questions here but I am looking for any genuine advice out there. Thank you or other potential advisers in advance. -
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,
AriTo 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. -
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.

Hi it's me rabia and i'm apple user
I want to change my cell phone because it's having scratches on it and i also feel like its home button did't work correctly
So i want to know that can i have a new cell phone on replace of this one at any nearby of my house App store without any cost ?
But i'm not having any line yet on my phone i use it on net mostly so what is the scene can i have or can't ??
please inform me soon !Is your phone still covered by warranty? If so, go to your nearest Apple store and depending on what happened, this may or may not be covered by warranty. If it is, then you can get a replacement exactly as the phone you already have.
If out of warranty, then there is nothing you can do and you'll have to pay.
