Question re synching with Ipad under different ICloud account

My question concerns how I sync my ICloud with an Ipad under my wife's email.
I have an iCloud account on my MacBookPro, my iphone and my ipad. They work fine.
I also want to send my calendar and other info shared on my 3 devices to my wife's ipad. She has an iCloud account using her email address,which is different from mine.
How can I assure that ICloud will work both ways?
Thanks

You have a couple of options. You can have your wife set up your iCloud account as a secondary account on her iPad, which would allow her to access your mail, notes, contacts, calendars and reminders (if she turn on syncing for all of these), while keeping her current account and it's data separate. She couldn't get your photo stream, bookmarks or iWork documents with this setup, as these do not sync with secondary accounts. These, along with her iCloud backup and Find my iPad, would remain with her current (primary) account. If you want to do this, on her iPad, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap Add Account and select iCloud from the list, and enter your iCloud ID and password.
The second option would be for her to share your account, migrating her data from her current account and merging it with yours. With this option, your data would be merged, and the merged data would appear on all devices. To do this, on her iPad go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, when prompted choose Keep on My iPad, then set up your account on her iPad, turn iCloud data syncing to On and tap Merge to merge her data with yours in the shared account. If she has any photo stream photos on her iPad that are not in her camera roll she will need to save these before deleting her iCloud account or she will lose them. To do this, open her My Photo Stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos she wants to save, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.

Is there a way to have multiple log on's for the ipad using different icloud accounts?

I just recieved an ipad for Christmas but would like to allow my daughter to use it too. I would like to be able to keep my business caledars and things syncing to my macbook and don't want my daughter to share the same one. Can this be done?

No. The iPad is essentially a single user device. Anyone who has access to the device (and/or its passcode) basically has access to everything on it.
You cannot passcode protect specific apps.

HT4137 I have two iPad's that use the same iTunes/store account. I want the two devices to play games with with other, but it recognizes them as the same. I have set up two different iCloud accounts, but still not recognizing the users as different. What

Hello, I have no idea if my question went out, so I'll post it again. I have two iPads (one 3rd gen and one 4th) that use the same iTunes/store account. I want the two devices to game with each other, but the apps recognize them as the same. I have created two different iCloud accounts in an attempt to differentiate between the two, but no luck. How can I continue to use the same iTunes/store account for music and movies, but also have the two devices recognize each other for games?

You can share your iTunes ID and still have separate iCloud accounts with separate IDs, they don't have to be the same. If you kids don't already have an iCloud account, have them set up separate accounts on their devices using separate IDs. If they are already sharing your account, migrate their devices to separate accounts. To do this, start by saving any photo stream photos they wish to keep to ther camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward pointing arrow), then tap Save to Camera Roll. If they are syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to them so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in their new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from thier device and won't effect your device), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone (if using iOS 7). Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create their new account and choose Merge to upload the data. Once everyone is on a separate account you can go to icloud.com from your computer, sign into each account separately and delete your data from their account.

How to back up multiple iphones/ipads with different icloud accounts but same apple id

I would like to back up 3 idevices each with different icloud accounts to itunes. But they use the same apple id so that itune purchases can be installed on each device (2 iphones and 1 ipad).
All I want to do is create a backup in case the phones need to be restored. I also want to back up before downloading iOS 8.
The Macbook Pro that I will back up to has one user and one itunes library.
Is this possible without mixing up address books and contacts etc? Appreciate if some one could direct me to detail step-by-step instructions if they exist or please tell me how I can do this.
Thanks.

With Family Sharing they don't need to have the same Apple ID anymore.
But backups to iTunes are kept separate among multiple devices; Apple ID and iCloud isn't involved at all. Just make sure the devices do not have the same name.

Create two different iCloud accounts with 2 iPhones (family plan)?

How do I create two different iCloud accounts with 2 iPhones (family plan). Both phones are registered under my name, and when my wife set up her phone with iOS 5, it will only let her log in using my account. I thought it used your iTunes account info, is this not the case? I really want her to have her own seperate account on her phone.
--Brian

I resolved it by using our seperate apple ID's. Since we already had our own itunes accounts I canceled iCloud on her phone that was using my account and logged in with hers. I did read somewhere where you can have multiple iCloud accounts under the same user ID but I'm not sure how that works because that is exactly how ours were set up initially and all the suddon all of her contacts and calendar items were on my phone and iPad and vica-versa . It was a pain to remove them one at a time after I broke the accoutns apart. I know that doesn;t really answer your question, but that was my workaround. Of course that also mean no app sharing.

"this itunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different iCloud account"

I set up an iCloud family. Until now, everyone had their own iCloud account, and we had a separate iTunes ID (not an iCloud e-mail address) that all of our purchases were made under.
So, I set up that Apple ID as the master account and added everyone's personal iCloud accounts as members.
Then, I went into iTunes prefs and logged in as my iCloud account.
When I go to the App store and go to Purchased, it says:
"this itunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different iCloud account than <my iTunes Apple ID>." Then there is a Learn More link that takes me to my iCloud and shows my family group with the same Apple ID as the organizer.
Does anyone have any idea what happened to cause it to think that I am not in the same family group?
Thanks.

Update...I now notice:
Going to: App Store>Updates>Purchases:
1) The message “This iTunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different iCloud account other than <her iCloud ID>...” Is now showing up on my iPhone and can no longer see any of my purchases or hers.
2) The same message above is now showing on my iPad mini (it didn’t before). But, I can still see both hers and my purchases on my iPad mini.
3) The message "This iTunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different iCloud account other than <my iCloud ID>…” still showing on her iPhone and she still can’t see her or my purchases.
iTunes Family Sharing still works fine.
Note: If I Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store then log out of my Apple ID, then go to App Store>Updates>Purchases and log into my Apple ID from there, My purchases show up (not hers). I then toggle between Updates and Purchases and the message pops up and unable to see any purchases, again. Same thing happens when I do it to her phone except her purchases show up (not mine).
I emailed this update to Apple...waiting for a reply.

Another "This itunes account is set up to use family sharing with a different icloud account than Apple ID "

I saw another thread on the matter but thought I would post because the circumstances are different. Here is how it happened.
I have had an Apple Store account for years and until recently our family has only had our one Mac and my iPhone 4. Thus any purchases we have made on the Apple App Store were made only with this account.
We recently purchased two iPhone 5S's--one for my wife and one for my daughter. Neither had Apple IDs so first we set up my wife's iPhone and created an Apple ID for her. Next we used the Family Sharing feature to set up an account for our "under age 13" daughter.
Because I am still waiting for my iPhone 6 Plus to arrive, and because the iPhone 4 cannot upgrade to iOS 8, and because my Apple ID is the only account with any apps that have been purchased in prior years, I set up my wife as the Family Organizer but when I set up her account, I chose the option to "share purchases from a different account" and entered the information for my Apple ID.
My daughter is able to view my prior purchases on her iPhone, but when my wife tries to view my prior purchases, she receives the message "This iTunes account is set up to use Family Sharing with a different iCloud account than <her Apple ID>."
I hope Apple is reading this. I would be more than willing to help them on this one as this feature is one of the main reasons I put our family on iPhones.

I had this problem. I finally figured it out yesterday. Try this:
On the device that is having trouble seeing purchases, go to Settings>iCloud>Family Sharing> Then tap on the user of the device you are on. Under "Family Purchases" make sure it has the AppleID of the person for that device. Mine originally had my husbands AppleID in there (he is the Organizer), but I changed it to mine. That doesn't make it so that the purchases are under me. The purchases remained under my husband, but my ID had to be in this spot for it to work.
After that, I closed settings, then I went to Settings>iTunes and App Store> click on the AppleID and Sign Out, even if it has the right AppleID in there. Then Sign In again using the AppleID of the person on that device. Again-- even if it has the right ID in there to start, still sign out and back in.
See if they show up. If they don't show up still, try doing a restart (hold down power button and home button until it restarts).
They should show up by then, but if they don't, at that point, try to go into iCloud and Sign Out and back in.
I think the key is having the right ID in "Family Purchases". I hope this works for you.

I have two different iCloud accounts. I can't sign into photo stream with my personal account and have tried deleting from my iPhone first, then the MacBook Pro. Still won't let me sign in with the personal account. Please help.

I have two different iCloud accounts - business and personal. I can't sign into Photo Stream with my personal account because it says my business account is my primary account. They are separate but equal accounts. I have tried deleting the iCloud account from my iPhone, then my MacBook Pro and signing in again on both devices. The iPhone says that my primary account ismy personal account (which is good) but my MacBook Pro still will not sign into that account so I can use Photo Stream.
Any suggestions? This iCloud stuff is getting annoying.

How can you check a different iCloud account in safari in an iPad?

How can you check a different iCloud account in safari in an iPad?

As currently designed, you cannot. Once iCloud detects you are on mobile Safari, it switches you to the iPad screen.
If you had another browser that would allow you to pretend you were a desktop Safari client, ie8 or 9, or Firefox, that might work.
But, Puffin and Opera mini don't work.

How do I sync my iPhone 3g with iPad I have iCloud on both devices

How do I sync my iphone 3g with ipad I have icloud on both devices

An iCloud email account is an IMAP account. With an IMAP account, all server stored mailboxes are kept synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account. Unless you have changed the Mailbox Behaviors with the account settings on each device, the account's Drafts, Sent Mailbox, and Deleted Mailbox are stored on the server with each device. Any user created mailboxes are also stored on the server.
On each device, go to Settings > iCloud. Contacts and Calendars need to be turned on for over the air syncing.
To have iMessages synced with each device, check this link.

3 ipad uses 1 apple id and 1icloud account, how can i make different icloud account so each ipad will have more icloud space?

All 3 iPads will have to share the same 5GB of free iCloud space. Buy more space if necessary.
Suggest you give different name to each iPad to prevent confusion.

You need to be using the same icloud account on both devices if you want your data synced between them.

HT204053 Can two different icloud accounts used for the same mac computer and same Itunes account still transfer photos and downloaded apps to all devices associated with that mac?

I purchased my wife an Iphone and we currently use the same icloud account, but we just ran out of storage. I'm not sure if we need so much more space that I'm ready to upgrade to 15 total GB of storage. If my wife sets up her own icloud account for her iphone will she and I still be able to share our photos, downloaded apps and music with different icloud accounts?

Apps and music aren't anything to do with your iCloud account, indeed you can use different ID's for each.
If you create and use another ID for iCloud, you will not be able to share both photostreams to the same user account on the computer.
This could be worked around with a second user account on the computer for the second user to do all their computing in. However you may find that photostreams shared albums will work around the problem for you. For example if you create a shared album and share it with your partner, any photos you add to that album will be available in your partners photostream on the computer.
