    My wife and I share one Apple ID.  I am on iCloud and she is not (yet).  If she turns on here iCloud capability does that mean our device content will be merged?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    To begin with, I would like to try to explain Apple's confusing nomenclature in regard to iCloud.
    Apple have called the whole cloud thing iCloud, there are a number of features under the iCloud umbrella, some of which require their own login. iTunes is one of these, another is what Apple have unfortunately also called iCloud too.
    You can use the same Apple ID (account) to login to both iCloud and iTunes, but you don't need to and often users will login to each service using a different ID.
    The part that you need to remember is that the services available when you log into iCloud are completely different and unrelated to those when you log in to iTunes. Your iCloud login enables mail, contacts, calendars, find my phone, Back to My Mac, Documents & Data sharing and photostream, it does not affect any of your iTunes services.
    To avoid confusion when discussing your problem, when I mention iCloud, I am referring to the services under the iCloud login, Whereas I will refer to the whole cloud thing as The Cloud.
    To avoid your data being merged, your wife should open a new account and use it just for iCloud, she can continue to use the existing account for iTunes, so that you can continue to share your iTunes content.

    My wife and I have one Apple ID through which we have individually purchased apps for her iPad and my iPad 2. We both now have individual iCloud accounts, and she now has an iPhone. For business reasons we now have to separate the apps under our individual iCloud accounts, but will maintain a single Apple ID for purchases. How can we separate the apps?

    Hi Shadow,
    The apps are forever tied to the Apple ID that they were purchased under. Your iCloud accounts are also Apple IDs, so although you can sync the apps to your individual device via iTunes, you will be syncing them to the devices, not to iCloud.
    Since you are still purchasing everything under one Apple ID, then I'm presuming that they live in a single iTunes library on your computer or Mac? If that is the case, then you would just want to:
    Hook up a device to the Mac or computer
    Select the device when it shows up under devices
    Once selected, the Device Profile screens display to the right - click on the Apps tab, and select which ones you want on that device.
    Also check all the other profile pages to make sure they are set up to sync the things you want to sync to that device.
    On the info page, you will see that you can sync Contacts & Calendars via iCloud or via iTunes. If you want a single source for contacts & calendars for both of your devices, sync them via iTunes. If you want your own sets of contacts & calendars, sync them via iCloud.
    Do you have iCloud set up on the computer or Mac? If so, which iCloud account are you planning on using?
    Some of the decisions you will want to make will depend on how you have your computer or Mac configured in conjunction with iTunes. One Apple ID, but one or two User Accounts for the computer or Mac? iCloud on the computer or Mac? What do you want to share and to not share?
    Post back with any questions.
    Cheers,

  • My wife and I share one itunes account with separate libraries. When I sync her iphone in her library, it adds all of my iphone contacts to her contact list. How can we void this?

    My wife and I share one itunes account with separate libraries. When I sync her iphone in her library, it adds all of my iphone contacts to her contact list. How can we avoid this?

    Make groups of contacts in your Address Book and select the option to sync only selected groups to each phone.

    To prevent this, the only thing you can do is to create another Apple ID for your wife or you, so you will have your information separated. Anothe roption is to allow your wife or you to use iCloud, and the other one should not use iCloud, so in this case the information won't get mixed
    Nice Mende, I didn't even think of that.

  • My wife and I share an apple id how can we use face time

    My wife and I share an apple ID. How can we use face time?

    Try the MacBook Pro forums and perhaps Apple ID or Facetime, this forum does not deal with notebooks or facetime.

  • My Wife and I share an apple ID, I recently changed to an android device but can no longer recieve messages from iphone users.

    I've unregistered my device online but left hers on there.  I'm afraid if I delete the account she will lose all her apps.  I'm at a loss now, I've talked to apple support and they assured me it would be taken care of and told me to wait 24 hours.  It has been 48 and nothing has changed.

    If you go into messages then press SEND AND RECEIVE you can delete the accounts there that you don't want to receive stuff from and still share Apple ID.
    You might need to do this on all devices wife and I had the same problem and this worked fine

  • My wife and I use one Apple i.d. account.  How can I change to use two i.d.'s and retain all my contacts and music and allow my wife to likewise save her contacts and music, too?

    My wife and I each have Iphone 4s and I also have Ipad latest version with 6.0 operating system.  Additonally we have Ipod Classics (a few years old) and when I got the 4s and Ipad (at different times) they started to share contacts, apps...everything with each other.  I bumped up the amount of Icloud space, but more importantly, how can I create two separate accounts yet save all the contacts, music, etc. that are in both of our phones?  Can Verizon (our cell provider) archive our contacts for downloads at different time to our separate accounts?  Thanks.

    Just call yur provider and they will set it up with you.
    This is what I do, when I get a new iphone and give mine to my wife.

  • My wife and I share an iTunes account, if I create her own account can she still access all the music and apps we have purchased together over the years?

    My wife and I have been sharing an iTunes accound and library on our own iPods then iPhones for years without much trouble. Now, Mai ly because of the cloud and a new desktop, I think it's time to create her own account but I don't want to have to repurchase all her music and apps. Is this poosible?
    Thanks!

    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.

  • Multiple ipads and Iphone with one apple ID.

    My wife and I share a apple ID for our iPads.  She just got the IPhone 4s. We don't want to share contact. Just apps and music.  Can we still access the same music off itunes?  Any suggestions?

    How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer

  • My wife and I each have iPads ipods and iPhones on one Apple account . Should we create a new account? What happens to our iTunes ,apps and iCloud? Can we share them? Will we lose any info?

    MY wife and I share and Apple ID . We both have iPads, iPods, and iphones
    all our purchases in iTunes , apps and iCloud are on this . If we create a new ID for one of us do we lose any of the data and purchased material or do we still share?

    I would suggest that one of you retain the existing AppleID and use it for the iTunes Store, iCloud, and Messages on their iOS device and/or Mac accounts.
    Then, the other one of you can create a new AppleID.
    You then have two choices for how to share your existing store purchases:
    1) You can try the new "Family Sharing" feature: http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/family-sharing/
    2) Or you can simply continue to use the original AppleID as your "iTunes Store" login on all of your devices (yours and your wife's), yet use a different AppleID to login to iCloud and Messages.
    Family Sharing is supposed to be the solution to the problem and does indeed have some interesting shared features.  However, just using the same iTunes Store login has worked reliable for years.
    The important this to realize is that in iOS and Mac OS, the logins for the Apple Store, Messages, and iCloud are all completely separate and can be independently configured.  So, you can each use your own AppleID for login to each of those services.  Just make sure to both login to the iTunes Store service using the same original AppleID.

  • My wife and I share the same email address and Apple ID.  We are not able to send and receive Text Messages to one another.

    My wife and I share the same email address and Apple ID. We are not able to send and receive Text Messages to one another. Is the cause of this because we share the same Apple ID? Will we have to set up 2 separate primary email addresses to be able to  send and receive Tex Messages to one another? Like I said, we share the same email address and woul like to keep it that way to keep up with our email together. Is there a way to by-pass having to set up 2 primary emaill addresses if this is the problem?
    Thanks.

    go to the settings and turn off imessage
    but that don't change the issue that you will never be able to facetime eachtoher
    the appleID is really meant as the handle that identify you it was not meant to be shared
    but can see that people may want to do not buy apps more then once

  • HT5621 can my wife and I share iBooks using one of our apple accounts?
