Switching to a different Apple ID/account on iPhone

I recently got my own laptop and apple ID, and would like to switch the apple ID/account on my iPhone from my family's ID/account to my new one. Is there a way to do this?

Where did you buy the iPad and register your iTunes account? What country is the credit card you used when you set up your iTunes account? Where are you now?

Did you create an icloud account?
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

Have two i phones owned by one person. Gave older I phone 4 to spouse. All synced items going to both phones. Created two different Apple ID Accounts but still having problems. Bought more icloud for one device but it went to the other one didnt need

How can i seperate to i phones that have been synced together. I created two different Apple Id accounts but for instance my icloud purchase didnt go to the phone i needed it to go to

If you look at Settings > iCloud on each phone, is the Account different? The Apple ID listed there should control iCloud storage allocation. [I assume your "icloud purchase" was more storage capacity.]
The Apple ID is separately specified to control iMessage, iTunes and App Store purchases, etc.

Can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

can i use home sharing if me and my wife have different apple ID accounts?

Yes.
You need to sign into home sharing using ONE Apple ID. So either pick yours or hers, use the same one for home sharing on the computers. Once they are signed in on both Macs you can access media that the other user purchased.
Click the 'Shared House' for her library (if you have the sidebar enabled) when you are in your iTunes to access her media & vice versa, both iTunes needs to be running & awake.

you can't.

a single iTunes can be authorized for up to five iTunes store accounts (Apple IDs). a library thusly set up will sync content purchased with any of the five Apple IDs to any device.

Two different apple id accounts?

Hi, when i download an app off the app store it asks for my usual apple id password. But when i try to update an app it asks for the password of a completely different apple id account to which i can't even remember making. How do i make them all correspond to the same account? Thanks

You can't. iTunes and App store purchases are tied to the AppleID used to make them and cannot be transferred, nor can accounts be "merged". The easiest solution is to redownload or repurchases the apps in question.

To gdgmacguy:
You can authorize the computer! Top left corner, you wil see file, edit etc. Click sotre> authorize this computer, than go to edit> prefrences> devices, under back-ups click where it says to prevent auto sync when devices is connected. than you can connect the device, and theoreticall you could transfer purchases by right clicking on the name of the phone, and back up by the same method.

Can I share contacts between different Apple ID accounts on Icloud?

I would like my wife to have access on her iPhone to the contacts on my iPhone. We have different Apple ID's. Can I share my contacts with her through iCloud?

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I specifically do not want to have her use my ID because any changes she makes would affect my contact list. Somewhere along the line, i thought someone said that contacts can be shared between iCloud accounts. Perhaps I did not hear it right. I think what I will do is transfer my contact list to our desktop computer (which is set up with the same ID as my wife's iPhone).
Thanks, again, for your time.

One app, two different Apple Dev accounts ... Will it work?

Building a standalone/single-issue viewer app for a client. We've asked to be invited to join their Apple Dev team, but the client proposes this workflow instead:
Scenario 1
• We use OUR iOS Provisioning Portal/Apple Dev account to generate all the certificates, provisioning profiles and the app ID needed to bake out the app.
• We deliver the final binary (.zip file) to the client.
• Client uses ITS iTunes Connect/Apple Dev account to deliver the binary to Apple, so that the client will be the publisher of record in iTunes.
WOULD THIS EVEN WORK? Can you really create an app using one Apple Dev account, then publish/manage it w/ iTunes Connect using another Apple Dev account?
We've also heard this scenario:
Scenario 2
• Using our Apple Dev account, we generate: Development Certificate (.p12) and Development Provisioning Profile
• Using, their Apple Dev account, the client generates: Distribution Certificate (.p12) and Distribution Provisioning Profile
THEN …
1.) … WHO generates the App ID, considering that our dev and their dist provisioning profiles need to be tethered to the same App ID?
2.) If it's the client, how do we tether OUR dev provisioning profile to THEIR App ID?
Big thanks in advance.

My only experience with publishing is to create both the dev and distribution apps, so I haven't tested that workflow yet. But I've heard of publishers who need to do what you're proposing. As I understand it, you would basically create the required cert files from two different Apple accounts. With your Apple account, you would create a dummy App ID (such as com.publisher.publication.test), and create the dev .p12 cert, the dev mobileprovision file, and the dev push cert. Your client would create the real App ID (such as com.publisher.publication) along with the distribution .p12 cert, dist mobileprovision, and dist push cert. Once you get these certs, you use Viewer Builder to create the app using the cert files from the combined Apple accounts. You would publish and test the development ipa file. If it all works properly, your client would sign in to Viewer Builder, download the distribution .zip file and submit it to Apple.
As I said, I haven't tested this workflow yet, but we're currently setting up a similar split environment.
