New Apple ID account?

I upgraded to a 5c and my wife got a 5c for the first time. Can I use both iPhones on my Apple ID and iTunes account, or do I really need to set up her own Apple ID and iTunes account?
Thanks,
Daniel

She should have her own Apple ID. You can still share one for app purchases if you want, but you should each have your own for iCloud/iMessage/facetime, etc.

Providing your Apple ID is not a .me or a .Mac address, you can change it with Apple and continue to use your account.
Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
Once who have done this you can then correct it on your mobile device.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
When you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
If however, your Apple ID was a .me or a .Mac address, then you will need to create a new account, follow the instructions above for deleting your account on your mobile device and then tap the "create Apple ID" button to create a new account.

TS2446 If i create a new apple id account on my ipod, will i still have all my music, apps, books and other stuff on my ipod that i downloaded and bought with my old account or will i loose everything; will i be able to still do the updates to those apps?

I really need help!

I don't think you understood what I wrote. You don't HAVE to pay for everything if you are happy with using the other account for updates, etc. But if you don't want to do that then you will have to buy new copies of everything for the new account. There's only one purchase item per account, but you can redownload an item in the account many times.
The idea is this:
One computer, multiple devices, one Apple ID.
One user, multiple devices, one Apple ID.
The basic idea is that each user has an Apple ID under which he/she can manage multiple devices on a single computer.
Once you step outside of that model you create such problems as not being able to use or update apps purchase under one Apple ID when using a different Apple ID. Or not being able to easily sync one device on more than one computer.

How do i transfer money from my account to my new Apple ID account?

Hey guys, I recently made a new Apple ID account for my new MacBook Pro. However, I have over $97 on my old account that I got on a gift card. I was wondering if there is any way that I can transfer that money from that account into my new one? Thanks for the help in advance!

Welcome to the Apple community.
Unfortunately you cannot transfer credits from one account to another. Nor can you purchase gift vouchers to send to your new account with a credit balance. I believe the only way you can utilise your credit balance is to use it up.

My Apple ID was disabled so I made a new Apple ID account and it is still saying it's disabled, what do I do?

I have a iPhone 4s and I was trying to download an app but it kept saying 'Your Apple ID has been disabled.' I'm not quite sure why this is happening but I googled what to do and it said I should make a new Apple ID account, I did this and then I tried downloading the app again after changing all my email and passwords to my new Apple ID account but it still said 'Your Apple ID is disabled.' and I don't know what to do from there as I have done everything it's told me to do!

See if this explains it…
If your Apple ID has been locked - Apple Support
Follow the advice there & contact Apple.

You need a valid credit card even for free apps. You won't be charged.

Sorry... But... You cannot use other countries itunes stores.
You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country..

New apple store account

hello support team,
I'm trying to create a new apple store account, but when i enter my gift card number, i get massage to contact iTunse support to complete my transaction!
would you please help me.

These are user-to-user forums, you can contact iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
Was the gift card issued in the same country as you are trying to create your account in, and you are currently in that country ? You need to be in a country in order to use its store.

If I create a new Apple id account with the same bank details for a old Apple id account will I lose my old account?

My daughter has created a Apple Id account with my bank details and I have an Apple id account myself on her phone it's comimg up with "This Device Is Already Associated With an Apple ID. If you turn on Automatic Downloads with your Apple ID, you cannot auto-download or download past purchases with a different Apple ID for 90 days." Does this mean if she presses cancel or transfer will my account be affected in anyway.

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?

Can I sync my new Apple ID account to a shared Itunes

Basically I used to share an Itunes and Icloud account with my dad. I got a new Iphone 4S and after some problems regarding music syncing (solved) everything seemed to be fine. My dad now has got a new Iphone 4S (Only a couple of days after me) and when he synced his phone to Itunes itunes recognised his phone as mine. He then got all my pictures, contacts - his phone was basically a replica of mine. His phone is in the process of restoring though we have not chosen an Icloud account to connect his phone to because we believe that is were the problems have come from, so we have left it for now, not restored just yet.
I created a new Apple ID and made my phone have this different Apple ID, so now our phones have different Apple IDs.
What I am asking is: can I connect my phone (with a new apple ID) to the Itunes that my dad and I shared with the other Apple Id that he still has?
If you need more details do ask as it is a bit of a strange situation. What I am wary of is me connecting my Iphone to Itunes and because my Iphone now has a different ID it will mess Itunes up or something.
Thanks for your time.

No you do not have to sign in/out every time.
Sign in with the account you want to use. Store > Sign In.
Then authorize the computer for both accounts. Store > Authorize Computer.
You will still have complete access to the content purchased under both accounts but will only be acquiring content going forward with the account that is signed in.
All of this is done in iTunes on the computer and has nothing to do with the iPhone.
On the iPhone, you simply sign in with the account you want to use. Settings > Store > Sign In.

How to take an ipod account off of iTunes and set up a new apple iTunes account.

I just bought an iphone and my daughter is sharing my itunes account with my email. I need to take her off of mine and set up her own. How do I delete my account info off of her iPod Touch?

Go to App Store, click featured, scroll down to bottom. You should see your email associated with the account, click it once. Click sign out. Then click sign in. Click Create New Apple ID. Follow the steps from here and then the purchases will be charged to this account. You can Redeem gift cards or sync a credit card to the account during set up to charge. Hope this helped

My email address has changed. I set up a new Apple ID account, but am unable to update

How do I change my email address on I cloud? I have changed my Apple ID and password, but can't delete the old iCloud account off my phone to enter the new Apple ID. Help!

The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

OS X Mavericks: Reinstall OS X Heres the link if anyone else had the same problem!! This is if you deleted not only the Mac App Store, but iTunes, Calendar, whatever came with the Mac (Apps that came already installed on the Mac), if you deleted one of those then you have to reinstall the Mac OS, Note: This one is for Mac OS X (Maverick) my version is 10.9.4, go to that link and follow the instructions if you have Mac OS X (Maverick). Other help: Common Mistake: If you delete the app from the dock then just go to finder and applications folder and drag the app back onto the dock(it was just deleted from the dock NOT your system/computer). Hope that helps others who had the same problem.

I want to make a new iCloud Account, but not a new Apple ID account.

I share an Apple ID and iCloud Account with my Father, and I would like to make a new iCloud Account so we don't have the same contacts, email, etc. shared with each other. But I would not like to make an entirely seperate Apple ID account since I've made song purchases on this account that I can't get back.

iCloud has a feature called "iCloud mail aliases" which allows users to create up to three so-called alias emails. Each of these is a completely separate email address which forwards email to you and lets you send email from it. Unfortunately, there's no way to have two separateaccounts in iCloud, but this may prove useful to you anyway.
To set up a new alias, go to https://www.icloud.com/#mail and open Preferences, accessed via the gear icon in the top right. Under the Accounts tab, click "Add an alias…" and fill out the desired settings.
