My daughter and I share an Apple account...

My daughter and I share an Apple account because she is too young to have a debit card. We both now have an iphone 4. Her phone contacts are showing up on my phone. How do I separate our information?

You should use a different Apple ID. If she's 13 years old or older, she can create an Apple ID without credit card > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534
If you don't want, in her device, open Settings > iCloud and turn off Contacts keeping her data. Then, open http://www.icloud.com, login with your Apple ID, choose Contacts and delete her contacts

You need to make an iTunes Store account in her name and with her unique Apple ID. Note that everything she has purchased and downloaded under your Apple ID will not transfer to hers. She will need (or you will) to repurchase all of her iTunes Store items.
She will also need her own user account on the computer if you share the same computer.

My teenage daughter and i share an apple id on both of our iphones. she now has an ipad with a her own apple id. How can we change the apple id on her phoneand not loose any contacts or songs?

My teenage daughter and i share an apple id on both of our iphones (2 phones both are 5s) . She now has an ipad with a her own apple id. How can we change the apple id on her phone so that is the same as the ipad and not loose any contacts or songs?

Did you take a look at the new feature Apple - iOS 8 - Family Sharing ?
Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing
Up to now, songs bought from iTunes could only be played by the Apple ID that has been used to buy them.
If you set up Family Sharing, your daughter can also play your songs and use the same contact info as before.
If you don't want to do that, sync the contact info to the address book on your computer, and sync the info back, using iTunes:
Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB
If the iPad already has her Apple ID and contact info on it, restore the phone from the latest iPad backup.

My daughter and I share our Verizon account and when she activated her phone, we started receiving all of each other's text messages. How do I stop this from happening?! It is creepy and we don't like it at all.

My daughter and I share the same Verizon account. When she activated her I Phone (which I also have an I Phone 5c) - we started receiving all of each other's text messages. I need your help as soon as possible to stop this. WE DO NOT WANT TO READ EACH OTHER'S TEXTS! Please HELP!

If that is the problem, how do I change it so she has her own Apple account if she already activated her device? Is there a way to remove my account and make her a new one on the device itself if it was activated incorrectly:??

My daughter and i share same itunes account but we want to separate and have our own. if i change "our" account to "her" account how can i set up a new "for me only" account and retrieve all my contacts and apps

my daughter and i share the same i tunes account but want to have our own now. how can i set up a new account just for me and still move or transfer my existing apps, contacts etc?

Yes, with the credentials of the account that the media/content was purchased with.
Content is permanently tied to the account it is purchased with and cannot be merged, moved, or transferred to another account.

HT204053 My daughter and I share an apple id and library, she is now getting text messages meant for me to her #

Can we share an apple id and use icloud and imessage without having this problem

She should have her own icloud account (you can still share the ID with the itunes store, but unless you want your devices to be synced together, use different IDs for icloud - i.e. different accounts).

My daughter and I share our iTunes account.

But it dawned on me that this will be a problem when she goes to college. Can I possibly start her a new iTunes account and then have her have all the music that we have gathered together over the last 5 years in her account and mine?
My friend was trying to explain how to do this, but I am just looking for a step by step, hold my hand tutorial or something. My daughter will be devastated to lose all of our music that we share.
Thanks!

iCloud is designed to be used by one user with all their devices "linked" together. Your daughter needs to have her own icloud account. Using one Apple ID for an iTunes account is a different situation, you can certainly share the account with your daughter. That way she can access purchased items without paying again.
If she already has another icloud account, and wants to set it up on her device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account. This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud. Then enter the account ID that she wants to use.
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
As for your lost contacts, they are gone. You only hope is if the contacts were also on your computer and (if gone now) you have made frequent backups of the computer (like using Time Machine on a mac). Just restore the contact files back to your computer.

HT201317 My brother, and me share an apple account, if i want my pictures to be put on ONE DEVICE , my ipad, is there a possible way to do this?

iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes - Apple - Support

My daughter and I share an iTunes account. Both of us have synced up to the cloud and now I have all of her contacts. How can we separate them?

Is there any way to have separate contact groups going to the cloud to your different devices?

I think i understand BUT BUT BUT
my wife has a Cotactsphone book in my AddressBook
My kid has a Contactsphone book in my AddressBook
And i have clearly my own Contactsphone book in my AddressBook too.
How is a seperate cloud going to diferentiate between each book?
In iTunes i could choose to synch the books of choice...
when my phone was conected i chose my contacts only and vice versa for each phone.
I dont see where this function works with a seperate cloud ID
surely they get a seperate cloud ID that syncks with MY ADDRESS BOOK and all its other address books within.
Resulting in back to square one.
where is the synch address book contacts alternatives that were originaly found in iTunes?

Currently my daughter and I use 1 apple id. Is there a way to set her up on a new id but with the same itunes library

Hi. My daughter and I share 1 apple id (username and password). How do I set her up with her own apple id and password on her mac but she keeps all the songs from the itunes library?

Make copy of the current library, and copy it to her new Mac. Once it is there, she can delete whatever she doesn't want (i.e. your stuff).
Start the new account, and she can use it to buy stuff going forward.

WE SHARE AN APPLE ACCOUNT SO HY WHEN I SEND A TEXT TO MY WIFE IT SAYS ITS FROM EMAIL ACC

My husband and i share a apple account we both have i phones , i pad and apple tv. My husband just upgraded to iphone 4s why when he sends me a text now dose it say its from my e amil account address which is the one the i tunes is set up on ???

On the iPod go to Settings>iCloud>Send and Receive and add a uniqueemaill address for him and uncked to Apple ID email address and iPhone number.
You might want to do similar for Settings>FaceTime.

HT201077 my daughter and I share the same apple id but can we have separate photo stream

My daughter and I share the same apple ID for music and apps. Is there any way for us to have separate photo streams. We do not want to share photos.

Hi
I also have 2 iphones (mine and my wifes), all on ONE iTunes ID and ONE iCloud ID.
I want to backup our photos only automatically to my Windowns 7 PC using Photostream & iCloud from both devices BUT I dont want her photos on my phone and vice versa.
I too would like to keep 1 iTunes account and because I dont want her photos streamed to my phone I will create separate iCloud IDs.
My question is.....
Can I set up my iClound control panel in Windows to backup photos from BOTH the iCloud IDs on the 2 phones?
I dont mind the backups going to the same folder on my PC, but I do want to keep the pics on the phones separate.
(also I am happy to use 3rd party software or manual options if not possibe with Apple products)

My daughter and I have separate iCloud accounts set up on out desktop PCs and our iPhones and iPads. We want to share the usage of a Win 8 laptop and will log in using using separate user accounts. Is it possible to set up our own iCloud accounts?

No it is not possible. Content purchased from the iTunes Store is permanently tied to the account from which it was originally purchased, and Apple does not provide a way to change it.
