Is it possible to create two apple ID on one iTunes account?

I bought my wife an iPod Touch, how can I keep my contacts seperate from hers?

Phil, I am confused about your statement/answer:
""Is it possible to create two Apple IDs on one iTunes account?"
Yes.  I have two."
Apple says:
"An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. You don't have to create a new account for each service—just use your Apple ID."
Thus an Apple ID is the same as the iTunes account.
Did you mean can yu use more than one Apple ID on one iPod because yuo know the answr is yes.
Or have I go something wrong?

  • Using two apple IDs on one Itunes account

    I recently purchases a ipad for my 86 year old mother. I want to also add music to it that I have cd's for. She now has an Apple ID of her own and I have my own Apple ID. The problem is this, when I log out of my itunes account and log in as her, I can still see all my music library as her. How do I see NOTHING under her account, until I actually load in music for her. Then can i sync her ipad using my OWN Mac and have it appear on her ipad? I have not enabled home sharing at all. Thank you!

  • Two apple products using one itunes account

    Hi, i have just bought an ipod touch for my son and want us to have the same itunes account but i dont want him to receive my messages or facetime calls, is there a way that the two can be separated?

    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID for him using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure yospecify a birtdate that results inbeing 13 years old
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want heim to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.    
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

  • HT1918 is it possible to have two different password within one iTunes account?  one to log in with and a different one to use when making a purchase?

    Is is possible to have two different passwords within itunes? one to log in with and a different one to make purchases with?

    The system is not setup to provide that kind of sservice.  If making certain purchases it does ask for an answer to one of your security questions, so that provides a little more security for some purchases, just not all.

  • Is it possible to have two apple loans under one account?

    So back in June my mum took up apple finance so I could get a macbook and pay her each month (I was under 18 at the time and have no credit history) and that went through within a minute no issues..
    Now I face another issue, I want the new iphone 5s but still within my current iphone 5 contract I can't get out of but that aside my question is:
    Is it possible to have two apple loans under one bank account? (the iphone one being much smaller than the existing mac loan)
    If not, I'll simply have to save up £700.
    Thanks~

    Hi babowa,
    The reference to two Apple loans led me to believe it was two Apple finance deals in conjunction with, for example, a Barclays Bank tie-up as we appear to have here in the UK.   As you suggest, the payment is a matter between the poster and his mom, but I think that behind all this is the question of whether the poster's mom can have two separate accounts in this way.   Which of course, she can.

  • HT204053 two apple id for one iCloud account

    Is it possible to assign two Apple IDs to one iCloud account?  I don't want to have separate ones for my wife and I...
    Thanks,
    John

    No, each account requires its own Apple ID. Why is it that you do not wish to have separate iCloud accounts, this is generally the best way of doing things.

  • How do you create two apple ids for one email address.

    I bought two i pads for my kids. Since we have just one email address, everytime I try to create a new apple id it says I already have one. They need separate ids so their friends can facetime with one and not the other. Can't figure out how to create two apple ids with one email address.

    Well any ideas on how to solve this problem? When my daughter does facetime with someone it says she's Wyatt. She's not real happy about that. 
    Get her an email address, even if she never uses it.  They're free and available almost everywhere.  The only requirement is that the address be a valid one.
    Edit...
    You can even use an "alias" of yours.  That's a fake address that actually sends everything to you.  Check with your current email supplier.

  • How to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with one iTunes account

    We recently received iPad 2's for Christmas and was looking for some advice on how to FaceTime and iMessage on multiple apple devices with One iTunes Account (Apple Id).  I have created or attached other e-mail addresses to our apple id but do not know how to use them on the new devices.  Our home MacBook Pro uses our main apple id for FaceTime.  The iPads have been setup with the main apple id w/o being able to use FaceTime and iMessage.
    Please Help...
    I appreciate the help and support.

    P and V-
    If you are trying to connect to someone with a different Apple ID, I think all the devices should work, but one at a time.
    The problem is when you try to connect between two with the same Apple ID.  Once the calling device tries to make the connection, it finds the second device to be "busy".  That is where each needs to use a different E-Mail address when setting it up.
    On iOS devices, when you press the Home button to exit an App, the App may still be active in the background, even when the device is sleeping.  If FaceTime or iMessage is merely being active that way, it may be enough to "tie up" the E-Mail address.
    From the Home screen, double click your Home button.  You will see a list of recent Apps along the bottom of the screen.  Press and hold on one of them until they start to wiggle.  You will then see a red minus sign on each.  Pressing the minus sign will remove an App from the list, and stop it from working in the background.  (Click the Home button to stop the wiggling, and again to hide the recent Apps.)

  • HT4972 Can you have two iPhones to the one iTunes account? I am overseas and using the old iPhone 4 here, but also have a current iPhone 5.

    I have two iPhones, a 5 which I currently use and an old 4 which I use as a second phone as I am overseas. I have connected both to iTunes. Does this cause any problems have two phones on the one iTune account, as far as updates, etc goes?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    It won't cause any problem. Moreover, you will be able to share the purchases between both phones and have the same information by using iCloud, so you don't lose anything

  • Is it possible to have two Apple IDs  for one account?

    I would like to set up one account with two Apple IDs so I could have one restricted to only free apps and the other unrestricted.  My daughter has an iPod Touch and I want to restrict what she can purchase but also make it so if we agree that purchasing an app for her iPod Touch we can.  New to this Apple ID stuff.
    Thanks,
    BubbaGee

    No. Each account needs it uniquie email adresss as the Apple ID.  However, yucan use more than one account on a single iPod and in iTunes.
    To change the acount on the iPOd go to Settins>Store and sign out and sign in with the account you wnat. Also see:
