The same apple id on two ipods

i want to know if i need to make a new apple id if i have two ipods with the same apple id. there are two ipods with two different apple ids but one of them has my moms apple id and my apple id on one ipod. but i have another ipod with just my apple id but the other ipod is still connected to my main apple id and whatever i delete off of the other ipod it deletes off of my ipod. and i want to know if i have to make a brand new apple id to stop that from happening and if i do make a brand new apple id will i have to start all over on the new ipod i have.
and im not sure if this makes any sense to anyone but its the best i can do about explaining it

What specifically gets deleted?
Does it happen when you sync only? If not when?

  • Can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  Yes, there is more to the story.

    I have an iMac, and iPhone.  I've had my Apple ID for a few years. 
    My wife got an iPhone 4S a few months back and the salesperson at Verizon set her Apple ID the same as mine, but gave her a different password.  I don't know if this was ok, but that is what happened.
    So, yesterday, we both upgraded to IOS6 and I had no problem logging in to my iPhone with my Apple ID.  When my wife went to log in, she was told that she was entering the wrong password. We entered the password over and over again and still was wrong.
    The question is... can two people share the same Apple ID on two different iPhones and maintain different passwords?  (I have the feeling her iPhone is thinking that since it's my Apple ID, it wants my password.)
    If not, can I still set up a new Apple ID for her even through she's had the iPhone for a few months?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    You shold follow your feelings, its probably right most of the time.
    You can have 5 different devices hucked upp to one Apple ID. What I have done is that my wife and I have one Apple ID, when I bye a new app on my phone, She gets it to. Thats nice.
    You can allways set upp a new Apple ID for your wife.

  • HT204053 Can you use the same Apple ID for two devices ?

    I have an MacPro and I am buying an iPad.  Can you use the same Apple ID for two devices or should I create an new AppleID for the ipad?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The Apple ID purpose is to have the same data in all your devices and share your purchases among all your devices, so you can use your Apple ID in both devices

  • I used the same apple id on two iphones

    used the same apple id on two iphones, and one of them i gave away. I signed out and deleted all the data that is connected to me. But the person who has my iphone, can see all imessages i get or send. And my apple id always appears on that phone... And of course when that person sends messages, it shows that it was sent from my email or phone. So is there a solution?

    He has to un-sing of iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime and of course you have to change your Apple ID password!

  • HT4759 can you use the same apple id for two phones on the cloud?

    can you use the same apple id for two phones on the same verizon account and if so can you keep there contacts etc. separate?

    If you want to keep your contacts and other data you sync with iCloud separate, you'll have to create separate iCloud accounts, which will require different IDs.  If you share the same iCloud account/ID on multiple devices, the synced data will be merged and will appear on all devices syncing with the shared account.
    You can still share the same ID for iTunes; it doesn't have to be the same as the one used for iCloud.

  • How do I use the same Apple ID on two or more devices?

    I try to set up an Apple ID on my iPad but I already have one set up for my iPhone which is associated with my email. It makes me use a different email address which I don't want to do

    You certainly can use the same ID for multiple devices. In fact, if you do then you can share the apps and content between devices. I have an iPad and iPod and use the same Apple ID for them both.
    If I were using different ID's for each  device then I'd need to buy two copies of some apps, which would just be no fun at all.

  • How to use the same apple id on two different iphones with different sync?

    Hi all,
    I own an iPhone 4s for personal use. Soon my company is going to give me a business phone and I can choose to have another iPhone. I'd love it but I don't know if what I wanna do is possible.
    Let's say I will have iPhone P (personal) and iPhone B (business) and Apple ID MyID.
    At the moment on iPhone P with account MyID I have application App1, App2, ... App9, I have contacts Cont1, Cont2, ...Cont9, I have songs Song1, Song2, ... Song9. All these are synced on my personal PC via iTunes and stored in the iCloud.
    When I'll get iPhone B I'd love to be able to use on it my Apple ID MyID and to sync it with my business PC (so NOT the same one I use for iPhone P).
    The configuration I'd love to have would be the following.
    iPhone P
    - Applications: App1, App2, App3, App8, App9
    - Contacts: Cont1, Cont2, ... Cont9
    - Songs: Song1, Song2, ... Song9
    iPhone B
    - Applications: App4, App5,App6, App7, App8, App9, App10 etc.
    - Contacts: Cont1, Cont2, Cont10, Cont11, ..., Cont20
    - Songs: Song1, Song2, Song10, Song11, ... Song20
    So will it be possible using the same Apple ID MyID on both iPhones to have this configuration? Some apps, contacts and songs in common and some differents?
    If so, how should I configure the two iPhones and the two PCs?
    Kind regards.

    If you use the same Apple ID for iCloud on each device, yes. However, you can use the same Apple ID for iTunes content on each device, but different Apple ID's for iCloud, iMessage, FaceTime, etc., on each device. That way, you can have whatever iTunes content you want on each phone, but keep all of the other data separate. You can create another Apple ID here:
    https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/wa/createAppleId?loca lang=en_US
    Must be a verified email address.

  • How do you install the same Apple ID on two ipads

    I have an original ipad and just purchased an ipad air.  I want to use the same Apple ID and it won't let me.  Is there a way to do this?

    That is the problem, you don't want to create a new Apple ID. You want to sign in with the Apple ID. When you activate the iPad you are given the option to sign into your ID or create a new one. You selected the wrong option. Try going back a screen or two to get the sign in option again.
    You can always skip the sign in and wait until the device is activated then sign in  -  settings>iTunes and App Store>Apple ID.

  • TS2755 Problem:  Both iPhones share incoming and outgoing Text Messages.  History:  We used the same Apple ID for TWO iPhones.  Later we changed the Apple ID on ONE iPhone.

    Two iPhones were set up using the same Apple ID.  iPhone#2 was updated 4 months ago with a new Apple ID.  Both phones continue to recieve text messages for either user.  Texts from user 1 or 2 to a 3rd party are signed as the same user.  iPhone#1 is an Apple 5, iPhone#2 is a 4s.  All phones on the same Verizon account.  IOS have been updated regularly.

    Go to your imessaging settings and check to see that the phone number for device #2 is changed good luck.

  • Can I use the same Apple ID for two iPhone's?

    Can I use the same Apple ID on both mine and my partners iPhones? and will there be any troubles or problems that may occur?
    Thank you

    Yes, but there will be quirks. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1495
    What isn't obvious is that you can use different Apple IDs for different functions on your iPhone; for example iCloud, iTunes & App Stores, Game Center, iMessage and FaceTime can all have different Apple IDs from each other.
    If you use the same Apple ID for Find my iPhone then both phone's locations will show up at https://icloud.com/find. Which can be good or bad, depending on your situation.
    If you use the same Apple ID for iTunes & App Stores you can have the same apps and music on both phones; some or all of them.
    You probably want different Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime; otherwise, you will get each other's messages
    Also different for Game Center.

  • Using the same Apple ID on two different devices

    Hi
    My sister and I have two iPads and, due to a problem I face with my Apple ID, I use her Apple ID to download apps from the Apple Store. However, when I download an app it gets downloaded on her iPad as well. So far, the opposite never occurred but it's still a bit frustrating...
    Why is this happening? Is there a solution?

    I can't give you specifics but there is probably a setting on the iPad where she can tell it not to automatically download items from the store.

  • Can i have the same itunes acct for two ipods (one nano and one shuffle)?  the shuffle is new and i want to duplicate the music. how do i do this?

    I have a nano that's a couple years old with an itunes acct.  Just got a shuffle and want to duplicate the playlist on the shuffle.  When I plug in the shuffle to the existing acct nothing happens.  How do I copy that music onto my shuffle.  thanks.

    Yes.
    You can sync as many ipods/iphone/ipads as you like to one computer/library.  This has nothing to do with your issue.
