Two different Icloud accounts but want to share only one?

Hello everyone,
Alright, I just swiched to the new iphone, so i put everything from my old phone to my new phone. BUT here is the problem, i cant access the familys icloud account. they all have the same one, but i am stuck with one odd one:/. so now i want to switch mines to the one everybody in my family has, but it wont let me ;l. how would i be able to switch it? thank you sooooo much!!!!

To change iCloud accounts on your phone, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password when prompted, then sign back in with the family account ID. If all your data is already in the family iCloud account, choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted after deleting the existing account.

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.

My wife and I both have the new iPhones. Is there a way to set up two separate iCloud accounts but have photo stream from both phones sync with one family mac? So we don't want to share contacts or anything else, just photos... Thanks in advance

If you turned off Contacts wouldnt that mean that the Contacts would no longer be backed up to iCloud as well? That would make it a pain when upgrading a phone to not easily pull contacts back down.

My wife and I have two different iCloud accounts. How can we share the Address Book?

My wife and I have two different iCloud accounts. I have an iMac OS X 10.7.5 and she has a new iPad. My Address Book is on iCloud but when she enters a contact on her iPad it goes to her Address Book. We want it to go to mine. We want to share my Address Book on iCloud. How can we do that?

You're welcome.
Happy Holidays to you and your family.

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.

HT204053 Setting up two different iCloud accounts

We use the same Apple ID but want to set up two different iCloud accounts. How do I do that?

my sister's account can't recovered because she already forgot the secret answer, also her yahoo hacked, so that she can't recover it using her yahoo, then her icloud is off, so that i can't change to another account, the terms and conditions is "unable to connect to the server".
IS THERE ANY SOLUTION HERE ?

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.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Choose which one you are going to use and delete the iCloud account from the other device, then log back in using the details of the account you wish to use.

Recently created a new iCloud account, but want to use my previous iCloud email address (created with a different iCloud account)... help needed!!

Guys,
I hope you can help me out on this, but I have a problem...
A few years ago I created an iCloud account on my old iPhone 4S.
Back then, I used an email address for iCloud registration that's no longer active.
Anyway, I also made an iCloud email address back then.
- Now I have a brand new iPhone 5S (totally love it)... and I just created an iCloud acccount with an other email address than I used back at the time I had my old 4S.
But... now I would like to use the same 'old' iCloud email address that I used on my previous 4S iCloud account.
Since that previous iCloud account is linked to an email address that no longer exists, I don't know how to do this!!
Can someone please help??

Each of you should set up your separate iCloud account on your own computer using your Apple ID. This gives you two independent iCloud accounts.
Note that an iPad is not a multi-user device. It can only be synced with one account.

How to backup multiple iphones 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.

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.

Using 2 different icloud accounts, but share match and photos from one account

My wife and I have an our own Macs and iPhones. I would like to have the photo stream and match from one account shared on both but use backup, contacts, calendar, ect. seperately
The way I currently have it setup it somewhat works except we both backup to the same account and the Maps program uses my account (which is where the backup and photo stream comes from)
Does anyone have a suggestion?

You can create a shared primary account and each add individual secondary iCloud accounts to your devices to sync mail, contacts, calendars, reminders and notes. However, only the primary account can be used for iCloud Bookmarks, Photo Stream, Documents and Data, iCloud Backup and Find My iDevice. Also, mail in the secondary account is fetch rather than push. Perhaps that's your current setup. If you want to share the same photo stream, that's how you'll have to set things up.
An alternative of course would be to maintain separate iCloud accounts and manually add photos to a shared stream on your devices and invite each other as subscribers.
